OTTAWA, CANADA July 8, 2015 DragonWave Inc.

Revenue from the Nokia channel represented 52% of revenue in the first quarter of this fiscal year, versus 46% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015 and 61% in first quarter of fiscal year 2015.
Gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 was 21.1%, compared with 19.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015 and 20.5% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2015.

From a full year outlook perspective, the start to the year has not been as strong as expected, but we anticipate solid growth in the second half," said DragonWave President and CEO, Peter Allen.

During the three months ended May 31, 2015 a total of 19,609 common shares were purchased by employees at fair market value, while the Company issued 4,902 common shares as its matching contribution. The shares contributed by the Company will vest 12 months after issuance.
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 months ended May 31, 2015 was $3 [three months ended May 31, 2014$4]. The fair value of the unearned ESPP shares as at May 31, 2015 was $13 [May 31, 2014$12]. The number of shares held for release, and still restricted under the ESPP at May 31, 2015 was 13,832 [May 31, 20147,466].
Warrants
Effective May 30, 2007, the Company granted warrants to purchase up to 126,250 common shares of the Company at a price of $3.56 CAD per share. The warrants expire 10 years after the date of issuance. The warrants vested based on the achievement of pre-determined business milestones and resulted in 31,562 warrants being eligible for exercise. As at August 31, 2008, a revenue reduction provision in the

amount of $64 was recognized with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus based on achievement. The provision was determined using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model using a volatility factor of 50%, risk free rate of 3.3% dividend yield of nil, and an expected life of 8.75 years.
On September 23, 2013 the Company completed a public equity offering. Under the terms of the offering, the Company issued and sold 11,910,000 units at $2.10 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $25,011. Equity issuance expenses relating to the offering totaled $2,576 of which $662 was expensed as the proportionate warrant costs. Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and three quarters of one warrant (warrants issued8,932,500). Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of U.S. $2.70 per share until September 23, 2018. On August 1, 2014 the warrant exercise price was adjusted to U.S. $1.30 as a result of a subsequent equity financing undertaken by the Company. In the event of a fundamental transaction the Company may be required to settle the warrants with a cash payment. As a result the Company recognized a warrant liability of $6,425 which represented the estimated fair value of the liability as at September 23, 2013. The warrant liability is adjusted quarterly to its estimated fair value. Increases or decreases in the fair value of the warrants are presented as "Fair value adjustment-warrant liability" in the consolidated statement of operations. As at May 31, 2015, 2,088,750 warrants were outstanding and the liability for warrants was decreased to $271. In the three months ended May 31, 2015 the Company realized a gain in the amount of $332 in the consolidated statement of operations which represented the change in fair value of the remaining warrant liability of $271.
On August 1, 2014 the Company completed a public equity offering. Under the terms of the offering, the Company issued and sold 15,927,500 units at $1.80 CAD per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $26,234 ($28,670 CAD). Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and one half of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $2.25 CAD per share until August 1, 2016, subject to certain adjustments. Equity issuance expenses relating to the offering totaled $2,275 of which $221 was expensed as the proportionate warrant costs. As a result of the offering, the Company issued warrants totaling 7,963,750 and recognized warrant liability of $2,551 which represented the estimated fair value of the liability as at August 1, 2014. During the three months ended May 31, 2015 the Company realized a gain in the amount of $190 in the consolidated statement of operations which represented the change in fair value of the remaining warrant liability of $446.
14. NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. In the computation of diluted earnings per share, the Company includes the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential equity instruments had been issued.
As at May 31, 2015 a total of 5,293,664 options, 60,000 RSUs and 10,052,500 warrants have been excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculations, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs fall into three levels that may be used to measure fair value.
Level 1Unadjusted quoted prices at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
Cash and cash equivalents are measured using Level 1 inputs.
The August 1, 2014 warrant liability is classified as Level 1 as they are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange and on the NASDAQ Global Market.
The September 23, 2013 warrant liability is classified as Level 3 as it is measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs. Significant assumptions used at May 31, 2015 for the warrants include a dividend yield of 0%, a 1% assumption that the fundamental transaction will happen every year, volatility of 60%, and a risk free spot rate term structure.
As at May 31, 2015 the Company held the following Level 3 financial instruments carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet.

Interest rate risk
Cash and cash equivalents and the Company's debt facility which has interest rates with market rate fluctuations expose the Company to interest rate risk on these financial instruments. Net interest expense, excluding deferred financing costs, recognized during the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $518 on the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and debt facility [three months ended May 31, 2014Expense of $279].
Credit risk
In addition to trade receivables and other receivables, the Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents 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 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, the Company may utilize forward contracts to secure exchange rates with the objective of offsetting fluctuations in the Company's operating expenses incurred in foreign currencies with gains or losses on the forward contracts. As at May 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015, the Company had no forward contracts in place. All foreign currency gains and losses related to forward contracts are included in foreign exchange gain (loss) in the consolidated statement of operations.
As of May 31, 2015, if the US dollar had appreciated 1% against all foreign currencies to which we have exposure, 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 loss of $37 for the three months ended May 31, 2015 [three months ended May 31, 2014decrease of $105], with an equal and opposite effect if the US dollar had depreciated 1% against all foreign currencies at May 31, 2015.
Liquidity risk
A risk exists that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. As at May 31, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $18,908 [February 28, 2015$23,692]. Based on current revenue expectations, the continuing availability of credit facilities, the Company believes that its liquidity risk is manageable.

Tables are expressed in USD $000's except share and per share amounts unless otherwise indicated
In our most recent quarter ended on May 31, 2015, approximately 52% of our sales were through the Nokia channel. Recent developments within Nokia, including Nokia's introduction of a multi-vendor microwave ecosystem and Nokia's proposed combination with Alcatel-Lucent, have increased uncertainty for the future of this channel. See "Relationship with Nokia".
Also see the discussion under "Liquidity and Capital Resources Liquidity Discussion" in this MD&A, as well as the discussion under "Risk Factors" contained in our most recently filed AIF.
Any of the risks referred to above could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from expectations, intentions, estimates or forecasts, there may be other factors that could cause our results to differ from what we currently anticipate, estimate or intend. Ongoing global economic uncertainty could impact forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A in an unpredictable and possibly detrimental manner. In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events described in this MD&A might not occur or might not occur when stated.

SELECTED CONSOLIDATED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following table sets out selected financial information for each of our most recently completed eight fiscal quarters. In the opinion of management, this information has been prepared on the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements, and all necessary adjustments have been included in the amounts stated below to present fairly the unaudited quarterly results when read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes.
Historically, our financial results have fluctuated on a quarterly basis and we expect that quarterly financial results will continue to fluctuate in the future. The results of operations for interim periods should not be relied upon as an indication of the results to be expected or achieved in any future period or any fiscal year as a whole. Fluctuations in results reflect the project nature of network installations. In addition, results may vary as a result of staffing levels, infrastructure additions required to support our operations and material costs required to support design initiatives.

Overview
DragonWave is a leading provider of high-capacity packet microwave solutions that drive next-generation IP networks. DragonWave's carrier-grade point-to-point packet microwave systems transmit broadband voice, video and data, enabling service providers, government agencies, enterprises and other organizations to meet their increasing bandwidth requirements rapidly and affordably. The principal application of DragonWave's products is mobile network backhaul. Additional applications include leased line replacement, last mile fiber extension and enterprise networks.
We support product lines branded under the names Horizon, Avenue and Avenue Lite, Harmony and Harmony Lite, and Harmony Eband. The key elements of our solutions include: high performance; carrier-grade availability; cost-competitiveness; support of legacy networking standards; and the availability of advanced network management and wireless network IP planning.
The demand for our products is driven by global trends, including IP convergence and pressure on backhaul capacity caused by increased functionality of mobile devices, the shift in demand from voice to multimedia content and services, growing demand for wireless coverage, increasing numbers of subscribers, and investment in radio access network spectrum. In our target markets, network traffic is shifting from legacy TDM traffic to IP-based traffic to improve network efficiency and enable IP-based services. Principally, we target the global wireless communications service provider market and, in particular, those service providers offering high-capacity wireless communication services, including traditional cellular service providers and emerging broadband wireless access (BWA) service providers.
We sell our products both directly and indirectly through our channel partners.
Our direct customers are typically service providers that operate networks in large geographical areas. The sales cycle to this class of customer typically involves a trial (or trials), and typically requires nine to twelve months from first contact before orders are received, but can be longer, particularly in greenfield situations. Once the order stage is reached, a supply agreement is usually established and multiple orders are processed under one master supply agreement. Master supply agreements provide the framework for future business and do not generally include any volume commitments.
Our channel partners are distributors, value-added resellers and OEMs including system integrators and network equipment vendors. In 2012, we acquired Nokia's microwave product line, and since that time Nokia has been our principal channel partner. Nokia rebrands our Harmony product as FlexiPacket. During the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Nokia channel accounted for 52% of our sales.
We also have a 50.1% owned subsidiary, DragonWave HFCL India Private Limited ("DragonWave HFCL") to address the Indian market. Because we have a controlling interest in the subsidiary we consolidate its results. During the first three months of fiscal year 2016, our sales of services and locally sourced material in India flowed through DragonWave HFCL and accounted for $1.8 million of our total revenue in the three months ended May 31, 2015.
We outsource most of our manufacturing and certain elements of the supply chain management and distribution functions. Outsourcing these functions allows us to focus on designing, developing, selling and supporting our products. Our research and development expenses have historically been, and will continue to be, a significant portion of our overall cost structure as we will continue to invest in new product features and new platforms to better serve the current and future needs of our customers.

Our industry is global and highly competitive. We face competition in our target markets from two types of microwave equipment suppliers: hybrid equipment suppliers (including NEC Corporation, Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson and Huawei) and suppliers, like us, of Ethernet equipment (including SIAE Microelettronica, Ceragon Networks Ltd. and Aviat Networks, Inc.). We also face competition from full service network integrators such as Huawei, NEC Corporation, Alcatel-Lucent and Ericsson, who have developed competing Ethernet-based products for IP networks.
Our business priorities include: managing resources to minimize cash demands; strengthening our balance sheet; maintaining our global reach while focusing on key revenue growth areas; maintaining and growing our relationships with channel partners; building on customer wins; and building toward leadership in outdoor smallcell backhaul.
Our primary operational objective continues to be to achieve cash flow break-even from operations. To this end, we plan to focus on new revenue opportunities; continuing to optimize costs associated with manufacturing and logistics with the objective of improving gross profit performance and; closely monitoring operating expenses to ensure we leverage our current business model.

Changes to the Board of Directors
In connection with our June 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, we announced changes to the composition of the board of directors. Robert Pons did not stand for re-election as a director. The vacancy on the board of directors was filled by the election of Russell Frederick who also continues to serve as our Chief Financial Officer.
New Wins
On May 15, 2015 we announced that we had signed a supply agreement for our microwave radio systems and related services with a leading Indian telecommunications company. Under this new supply agreement, we have received initial purchase orders to provide more than 3,000 turnkey links of our next-generation Harmony Enhanced high-capacity, long-reach microwave radio system to support the mobile operator's upgrade and expansion of its nationwide 3G and 4G wireless services in India.

Revenue ExpectationsUpdate to Guidance for Q1 Fiscal Year 2016
On May 12, 2015, at the time of the release of our financial statements for the fourth quarter ended February 28, 2015, we announced that we looked forward to double-digit year-over-year revenue growth in fiscal year 2016 and that the strongest contribution to revenue growth in fiscal year 2016 is expected to come from expanding direct business with current and new Tier 1 mobile operators. The revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 was expected to be in the $30 to $33 million range. On June 3, 2015, we communicated updated revenue expectations of approximately $27.0 million in revenue for the quarter ended May 31, 2015. Revenue was anticipated to be lower due to shipments not making the first quarter cut off. These shipments are now expected to occur in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016. Actual revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 decreased by $17.4 million compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015. The primary drivers for the decrease were as follows:

Relationship with Nokia
We closed our acquisition of Nokia's microwave transport business on June 1, 2012. At the time of the acquisition we became the preferred strategic supplier of packet microwave and related products to Nokia. The integration phase for the transaction is now complete.
On April 10, 2013 we announced a renewed framework with Nokia which included:

Over time, our relationship with Nokia has become one based on the value that each party brings to the other across diverse domains including technology collaboration, product management and customer services and support. Either party may use alternative partners or products. Nokia has recently announced the formation of a microwave ecosystem administered through its Partner Business Unit (PBU). The PBU was established to facilitate Nokia's delivery of partner products and services alongside the Nokia portfolio. We are a member of PBU's microwave ecosystem together with other microwave vendors. In April 2015, Nokia announced its proposed combination with Alcatel-Lucent (ALU), which has a vertically integrated microwave business unit. The combination is subject to regulatory approvals and other conditions.
While Nokia has reaffirmed its commitment to partnering, both the introduction of the multi-vendor microwave ecosystem and the proposed Alcatel-Lucent combination increases uncertainty for the future of this channel. In recognition of this and the recent reduction in demand through this channel, we have been working with Nokia to change our existing contractual framework to better support our cash flow needs and rationalize future legacy support obligations.
Strategic Review Process
Our Board of Directors reviews our corporate strategy on an ongoing basis. The Board has commenced an intensified review of strategic and financial alternatives that may be available, including a potential sale of the Company, debt or equity financing, business combinations, joint ventures and strategic alliances, and ways to optimize our stand-alone plan. To assist in the strategic and financial elements of this review, CIBC World Markets Inc. has been engaged as adviser to the Board and H. C. Wainwright & Co. has been engaged to investigate financing options for the Company. The strategic review is being overseen by the Strategy Committee of the Board, which currently consists of independent directors Claude Haw and Cesar Cesaratto.

Revenue and Expenses
Revenue
We continue to have one reportable segment, broadband wireless backhaul equipment. The vast majority of our sales come from the shipment of equipment (as opposed to services or software) either through direct sales, sales to distributors, or through original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
We also analyze our sales according to geographic region and target product development and sales strategies to meet the unique requirements of each region. Through co-operation with our channel partner, Nokia, we have visibility to the geographical location of our shipments through Nokia's various warehouses. The table below displays this information.

Cost of Sales and Expenses
A large component of our cost of sales is the cost of products purchased from outsourced manufacturers. Final testing and assembly for the links sold by us is carried out both at our premises and at the premises of our contract manufacturers. Additional costs for logistics and warranty activities are included in cost of sales. We use the services of a number of outsourced contract manufacturers with locations in Germany, China and Malaysia.
Research and development ("R&D") costs relate mainly to the compensation of our engineering group and the material consumption associated with prototyping activities.
Sales and marketing ("S&M") expenses include the remuneration of sales staff, travel and trade show activities and customer support services.
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses relate to the remuneration of related personnel, professional fees associated with tax, accounting and legal advice, and insurance costs.

The two main factors which led to the change in revenue when compared to the prior year period were a decrease in sales through the Nokia channel coupled with the deployments in Europe and the Middle East which required shipments in the first quarter in the prior fiscal year, but which are now complete. These decreases were offset by shipments into India for a new customer win in the region.

R&D spending is lower as a result of decreased spending across a wide variety of categories. These decreases were offset in part by higher compensation related costs which included $0.3 million in termination payments for staff reductions in China. The impact of a weakened Canadian dollar reduced our Canadian dollar R&D expenses when translated to United States dollars by $0.2 million in the three months ended May 31, 2015.

During the three months ended May 31, 2015 the weighted average debt outstanding was $32.6 million (three months ended May 31, 2014$15.3 million). We capitalized the fees associated with the creation and renegotiation of the line and are amortizing those costs over the life of the facility.

During the three month period ended May 31, 2014, we revised the Italian termination fee estimate and determined the payment schedule of the Italian operations termination fee. This resulted in a gain of $0.1 million in change in estimate.
The total termination fee liability is valued at $3.3 million as at May 31, 2015 all of which is considered short term in nature.

The foreign exchange gains and losses result from the translation of foreign denominated monetary accounts and the strength of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies. During the three months ended May 31, 2015 the translation of cash accounts resulted in foreign currency losses of $0.2 million while the translation of foreign currency denominated liability accounts, particularly those denominated in Euro, resulted in foreign currency gains. The net of these transactions resulted in a foreign currency loss of $80 thousand in the three months ended May 31, 2015.

Use of Non-GAAP Performance Measures
"Gross profit before inventory provisions"
In this MD&A we break out "Gross profit before inventory provisions" as this measure allows management to evaluate our operational performance and compare to prior periods more effectively. "Gross profit before inventory provisions" does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP, it is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and is not designed to replace other measures of financial performance or the statement of operations as an indicator of performance. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures of performance calculated according to GAAP. We believe that it is useful to compare gross profit results without the impact of inventory provisions, since our inventory provisions generally relate to discontinuance of products. We believe this non-GAAP measure also provides investors with a better ability to understand our operational performance. We calculate "Gross profit before inventory provisions" consistently over each fiscal period.
The most directly comparable GAAP measure presented in our consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended May 31, 2015 to "Gross profit before inventory provisions" is "Gross profit".
"Adjusted Cashflow from Operations/Adjusted EBITDA"
In this MD&A we also break out "Adjusted Cashflow from Operations" also called "Adjusted EBITDA". This measure corresponds to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization less elements that are non-cash in nature. Because it omits non-cash items, we feel that Adjusted Cashflow from Operations/Adjusted EBITDA better represents the cash impact of the results of operations in the period. Adjusted Cashflow from Operations/Adjusted EBITDA does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP, and is not designed to replace other measures of financial performance or the statement of operations as an indicator of performance. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other measures of performance calculated according to GAAP. Consistent improvement in Adjusted Cashflow from Operations/Adjusted EBITDA is one of management's primary objectives. Reducing cash usage from drivers other than working capital and capital investments is an important objective for us and we believe this financial measure is therefore useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance.
The most directly comparable GAAP measure presented in our consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended May 31, 2015 to "Adjusted Cashflow from Operations/Adjustment EBITDA" is "Net Loss". A reconciliation of "Adjusted Cashflow from Operations/Adjusted EBITDA" to "Net Loss" is set out below.

Trade Receivables
Our trade receivables balance decreased by $12.7 million between February 28, 2015 and May 31, 2015 primarily due to lower sales levels in the three months ended May 31, 2015 compared with the prior three month period. Significant attention was paid to collection activities again this quarter and as a consequence we collected approximately $38 million from trade receivables in the first quarter of the fiscal year ($34 million in Q4 FY2015). Our days sales outstanding performance, excluding one customer with extended payment terms in India, was 58 days at May 31, 2015 (59 days at February 28, 2015). Our sales outstanding including all customers in the calculation increased from 96 days at February 28, 2015 to 106 days at May 31, 2015. Our allowance for doubtful accounts continues to represent a small percentage of our total trade receivables outstanding (May 31, 20151.0%; February 28, 20151.0%).
As at May 31, 2015, two customers exceeded 10% of the total receivable balance. These customers represented 44% and 24% of the trade receivables balance (February 28, 2014two customers represented 37% and 34% of the trade receivables balance).
Included in G&A expenses is a nominal bad debt expense for the three month period ended May 31, 2015 (first quarter fiscal year 2015nominal).

Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
The accounts payable and accrued liabilities balance decreased by $2.7 million between February 28, 2015 and May 31, 2015 primarily due to a decrease in invoices received for raw materials. This decrease is associated with lower shipments in the quarter. In addition, accounts payable decreased as a result of a payment to Nokia of the termination fee of $1.1 million.
Debt Facility
On January 6, 2014, we extended the credit facility with Comerica Bank and Export Development Canada which will mature on June 1, 2016. The revised line has been increased to $40.0 million plus $4.0 million for letters of credit and foreign exchange facilities and will expire on June 1, 2016. The new terms of the credit facility include customary terms, conditions, covenants, and representations and warranties. Credit availability is subject to ongoing compliance with borrowing covenants and short term assets on hand. As at May 31, 2015, we had $33.7 million drawn on this facility, and in addition had utilized $1.9 million for letters of credit. Access to additional available funds is geared to future growth in accounts receivable. The credit facility is secured by a first priority charge on all of our assets and principal direct and indirect subsidiaries. Borrowing options under the credit facility include U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars and Euro loans. Interest rates vary with market rate fluctuations, with loans bearing interest in the range of 3% to 4% above the applicable base rates. 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 thirty month term of the facility.
The credit facility contains financial covenants including minimum tangible net worth requirements, holding a minimum of $10.0 million within our lenders (Comerica Bank) operating account, and minimum liquidity ratio requirements. The credit facility also imposes certain restrictions on our ability to acquire capital assets above a threshold over a trailing six month period. Upon an event of default, outstanding obligations would be immediately due and payable unless a waiver is received.
We were in compliance with all covenants as at May 31, 2015.

Equity Offerings and Use of Proceeds
2014 Equity Offering
On August 1, 2014 we completed a public equity offering (the "2014 Equity Offering"). Under the terms of the 2014 Equity Offering, we issued and sold 15,927,500 units at CAD$1.80 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $26.2 million (CAD$28.7 million). After deducting commissions and expenses, we realized net proceeds of $24.0 million. Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and one half of one warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one of our common shares at an exercise price of CAD$2.25 per share until August 1, 2016. Upon issuance, we recognized a liability in the amount of $2.6 million for the warrants.
2013 Equity Offering
On September 23, 2013, pursuant to the public equity offering of units (the "2013 Equity Offering"), we issued 11,910,000 common shares and 8,932,500 warrants for proceeds, before deducting fees and expenses, of approximately $25.0 million. After deducting fees and expenses, we realized net proceeds of $22.4 million. The units were offered at a price of $2.10 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common share and three quarters of one warrant. Each whole warrant originally entitled the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $2.70 per share until September 23, 2018, subject to certain adjustments. In connection with the 2014 Equity Offering, and pursuant to the terms of such warrants, the exercise price of the warrants issued in the 2013 Equity Offering was changed to $1.30 per share. As at September 23, 2013 we recognized a liability in the amount of $6.4 million for the warrants.
Use of Proceeds
On August 1, 2014, pursuant to the 2014 Equity Offering, we issued 15,927,500 common shares and 7,963,750 warrants for proceeds, before deducting fees and expenses, of approximately CAD$28.7 million. After deducting fees and expenses, we realized net proceeds of $24.0 million (CAD$26.2 million).
As previously disclosed, we planned to use the proceeds we received from the 2014 Equity Offering as follows: approximately CAD$11.5 million to strengthen our balance sheet, approximately CAD$5.7 million to fund working capital and approximately CAD$5.7 million for general corporate purposes. A portion of the aggregate net proceeds of the 2014 Equity Offering (being CAD$3.3 million) was received by us as a result of the exercise of the over-allotment option by the underwriters on August 1, 2014. As a result, the net proceeds were greater than anticipated. The additional net proceeds will be used to fund working capital.
In our industry, a strong balance sheet (in the sense of a cushion of available cash) is attractive to customers as it demonstrates the capacity to ramp up and support higher production levels. In some longer term and larger deployments, a certain amount of cash on the balance sheet is a precondition to qualifying to supply products. To the extent we are successful in winning more business, funds allocated to strengthening our balance sheet may be reallocated to supporting higher levels of production, including purchases of component inventory to support our supply chain. Any amounts for general working capital remain unallocated and will be expended at the discretion of management.

Although we intend to use the net proceeds from the 2014 Equity Offering for the purposes set forth above, we reserve the right to use such net proceeds for other purposes to the extent that circumstances, including unforeseen events and other sound business reasons, make such use necessary or prudent.
Reconciliation of Use of Proceeds
The following table sets out a comparison of the intended use of proceeds disclosed in the prospectus supplement dated July 25, 2014 publicly filed in connection with the 2014 Equity Offering (other than working capital):

Liquidity Discussion
Our consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended May 31, 2015 have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the disbursement of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have consumed a significant amount of cash resources during the past three years, mainly attributable to material and operating expense base reductions that lagged reductions in sales volumes, and our acquisition and integration of Nokia's microwave transport business.
We have formulated a plan to return to cashflow break-even from operations and to continue to operate as a going concern. We plan to continue utilizing our asset backed lending facilities described in the "Debt Facility" section above to finance our working capital needs. Given the Company has continued to consume cash the Company may need to access new sources of capital to fund the business.
Some of the significant assumptions and associated risks of our plan to achieve cashflow break-even from operations include:
While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, actual events or circumstances may cause our assumptions to be incorrect and actual results may differ materially from the plan.

The number of common shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants is subject to adjustment in accordance with terms of the warrants.
Restricted Shares & Employee Share Purchase Plan
We launched an Employee Share Purchase Plan ("ESPP") on October 20, 2008. The plan includes provisions to allow employees to purchase common shares. We will match the employees' contribution at a rate of 25%. During the three months ended May 31, 2015 a total of 19,609 common shares were purchased by employees at fair market value, while we issued 4,902 common shares as its matching contribution. The shares we contributed will vest twelve (12) months after issuance.
We record an expense equal to the fair value of shares granted pursuant to the ESPP over the period the shares vest. The total fair value of the shares earned during the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $3 thousand (three months ended May 31, 2014$4 thousand). The fair value of the unearned ESPP shares as at May 31, 2015 was $13 thousand (May 31, 2014$12 thousand). The number of shares held for release, and still restricted under the ESPP at May 31, 2015 was 13,832 (May 31, 20147,466).

There can be no assurance that we will secure sub-leases or that sub-lease terms will be favorable.
We use an outsourced manufacturing model in which most of the component acquisition and assembly of our products is executed by third parties. Generally, we provide the supplier with a purchase order 90 days in advance of expected delivery. We are responsible for the financial impact of any changes to the product requirements within this period. In some cases when a product has been purchased by a contract manufacturer but not pulled on for a build after a certain amount of time, we provide a deposit against that inventory, but do not take ownership of it.
Our contract manufacturers currently have inventory intended for use in the production of our products, and we have purchase orders in place for raw materials and manufactured products with these contract manufacturers as well. All of this material is considered to be part of the normal production process and we take provisions against any portion of that inventory that we do not expect to be fully used based on current forecasts and projections. As mentioned previously, we would generally be responsible for the cost of the material approved to be purchased on our behalf by our contract manufacturers should those forecasts or projections change.
As at May 31, 2015, we have provisions totaling $0.1 million on inventory held by contract manufacturers that we do not expect to be fully used.

Fair value
We classify our fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements. The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs fall into three levels that may be used to measure fair value.
The September 23, 2013 warrant liability is classified as Level 3 as it is measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs.
The August 1, 2014 warrant liability is classified as Level 1 as the warrants issued in the 2014 Equity Offering are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange and on the NASDAQ Global Market.
As at May 31, 2015 we held the following Level 3 financial instruments carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet.

Interest rate risk
Cash, cash equivalents and our debt facility, which has interest rates with market rate fluctuations, expose us to interest rate risk on these financial instruments. Net interest expense, excluding deferred

financing costs, recognized during the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $0.5 million on our cash, cash equivalents and debt facility (three months ended May 31, 2014expense of $0.3 million).
Credit risk
In addition to trade receivables and other receivables, we are exposed to credit risk on our cash and cash equivalents in the event that our counterparties do not meet their obligations. We do 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. We minimize credit risk on cash and cash equivalents 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 may 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. As at May 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015, we had no forward contracts in place. All foreign currency gains and losses related to forward contracts are included in foreign exchange gain (loss) in the consolidated statement of operations.
As of May 31, 2015, if the U.S. dollar had appreciated 1% against all foreign currencies to which we have exposure, with all other variables held constant, the impact of this foreign currency change on our foreign denominated financial instruments would have resulted in a nominal decrease in after-tax net loss for the three months ended May 31, 2015 (three months ended May 31, 2014decrease of $0.1 million) with an equal and opposite effect if the U.S. dollar had depreciated 1% against all foreign currencies at May 31, 2015.
Economic Dependence
We were dependent on two key customers with respect to revenue in the three months ended May 31, 2015. These customers represented approximately 52% and 11% of sales (three months ended May 31, 2014one customer represented 61%).
Controls and Procedures
At the end of the period covered by this MD&A (such period being the three months ended May 31, 2015), an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, which are our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at May 31, 2015 to give reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act and/or applicable Canadian securities legislation is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's as well as in accordance with applicable Canadian securities legislation rules and forms, and

(ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) as well as National Instrument 52-109 of the Canadian Securities Administrators. These controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, our CEO, and principal financial officer, our CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective and that there are no material weaknesses in the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2015.
Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our consolidated financial statements filed on SEDAR on May 12, 2015, has also audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2015, as stated in their report which is included in the annual audited financial statements.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this report, no changes occurred in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value ("NRV"). The cost of inventory is calculated on a standard cost basis, which approximates average actual cost. NRV is determined as the market value for finished goods, replacement cost for raw materials, and finished goods market value less cost to complete for work in progress inventory.
We regularly review inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based on factors including our estimated forecast of product demand, the stage of the product life cycle and production requirements for the units in question.
We carry inventory for the purposes of supporting our product warranty. Our standard warranty is typically between 12 and 36 months but we earn revenue by providing enhanced and extended warranty and repair service during and beyond the standard warranty period. Customer service inventory consists of both component parts and finished units. Indirect manufacturing costs and direct labour expenses are allocated systematically to the total production inventory.

Revenue recognition
We derive revenue from the sale of broadband wireless backhaul equipment which includes embedded software and a license to use said software and extended product warranties. Software is considered to be incidental to the product. Services range from installation and training to basic consulting. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and there are no significant remaining vendor obligations, collection of receivables is reasonably assured and the fee is fixed and determinable. Where conditions to final acceptance of the product are specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until acceptance criteria have been met.
Our business agreements may also contain multiple elements. Accordingly, we are required to determine the appropriate accounting, including whether the deliverables specified in a multiple element arrangement should be treated as separate units of accounting for revenue recognition purposes, the fair value of these separate units of accounting and when to recognize revenue for each element. For arrangements involving multiple elements, we allocate revenues to each element based on a selling price hierarchy. The selling price for a deliverable is based on its vendor specific objective evidence ("VSOE") if available, third party evidence ("TPE") if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price ("ESP") if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. In multiple element arrangements, revenues are allocated to each separate unit of accounting for each of the deliverables using the relative estimated selling prices of each of the deliverables in the arrangement based on the aforementioned selling price hierarchy. We have determined the selling price both for the undelivered items and the delivered items using ESP.
We generate revenue through direct sales and sales to distributors. We defer the recognition of a portion of sales to distributors based on estimated sale returns and stock rotation granted to customers on products in the same period the related revenues are recorded. These estimates are based on historical sales returns, stock rotations and other known factors.
Revenue associated with extended warranty and advanced replacement warranty is recognized ratably over the life of the contracted service.
Revenue from engineering services or development agreements is recognized according to the specific terms and acceptance criteria as services are rendered.
We accrue estimated potential product liability as warranty costs when revenue on the sale of equipment is recognized. Warranty costs are calculated on a percentage of revenue per month based on current actual warranty costs and return experience.
Shipping and handling costs borne by us are recorded in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are recorded as revenue, if billed at the time of shipment. Costs charged to customers after delivery are recorded in cost of sales.
We generate revenue through royalty agreements as a result of the use of our intellectual property. Royalty revenue is recognized as it is earned.

Tables are expressed in USD $000's except share and per share amounts unless otherwise indicated
Advanced Replacement and Extended Warranty
We offer our customers the option to purchase advanced replacement and extended warranty contracts either at the time the goods are shipped or at any time after shipment takes place. Many customers wait to purchase extended warranty coverage until their standard warranty period ends.
Advanced replacement is a service we sell which provides customers with the benefit of having a replacement radio or modem shipped to them when a unit they own has been confirmed by us to be malfunctioning. When the customer receives the replacement radio or modem, they ship the malfunctioning unit back to us. We repair and keep the returned unit.
Our standard warranty for customers generally varies between 12 and 36 months. Our extended warranty programs enable customers to continue to have repairs made as needed and customer support guidance beyond the standard warranty period.
Training
We earn a minimal portion of our total revenue from the sale of training services primarily to installation companies. Only in rare circumstances do we provide or sub-contract installation services (see below), as the customers to whom we sell microwave equipment outsource the installation to specialized companies. As a result, installation training revenue is generally not sold as a bundled service because it is sold to a different customer base. Further, any training that is provided is not essential to the functionality of our product offerings, and is thus considered an insignificant deliverable to the overall arrangement and is not considered a separate unit of accounting.
Installation
Periodically, a customer may request that we arrange for the installation of our equipment. Installations are performed by a third party service provider. In this case, a separate services agreement is created between us and the end-user of our equipment, and we sub-contract the installation to a qualified installer. Evidence that the revenue associated with the installation service represents the fair value of the offering is provided by the sub-contracted value of the installation.
The revenue recognition concepts highlighted above have not changed as a result of our acquisition of Nokia's microwave transport business. Shipping terms through the Nokia OEM sales channel follow the Incoterms used by our other customers and do not include acceptance criteria.
Research and Development
Our research costs are expensed as incurred. Our development costs are expensed as incurred unless we meet generally accepted accounting criteria for deferral and amortization. Development costs incurred prior to establishment of technological feasibility do not meet these criteria, and are expensed as incurred.
Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the tax and

accounting bases of assets and liabilities as well as for the benefit of losses available to be carried forward to future years for tax purposes that are more likely than not to be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We provide a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets when we believe that it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized.
We determine whether it is more likely than not that an uncertain tax position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. The tax benefit of any uncertain tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is calculated as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon successful resolution. To the extent a full benefit is not expected to be realized, an income tax liability is effectively established. We recognize accrued interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense.
We periodically review our provision for income taxes and valuation allowance to determine whether the overall tax estimates are reasonable. When we perform our quarterly assessments of the provision and valuation allowance, it may be determined that an adjustment is required. This adjustment may have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.
FUTURE ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-9, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". The amendments in this Update create Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments supersede the cost guidance in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, and create new Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs-Contracts with Customers. In April 2015, the FASB decided to propose a one-year deferral of the effective date by one year for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact this amendment will have on our consolidated interim financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, "CompensationStock Compensation". The amendments apply to reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target can be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on our consolidated interim financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial StatementsGoing Concern". The update provides U.S. GAAP guidance on management's responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company's ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures. For each reporting period, management will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact this amendment will have on our consolidated interim financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, "Income StatementExtraordinary and Unusual Items". The amendments objective is to simplify the income statement presentation requirements in Subtopic 225-20 by eliminating the concept of extraordinary items. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on our consolidated interim financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Interest-Imputation of Interest". The amendments in this update would require that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs would not be affected by the amendments in this Update. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on our consolidated interim financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, "IntangiblesGoodwill and OtherInternal Use Software". The amendments in this update will help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on our consolidated interim financial statements.
