NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2015
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by MAM Software Group, Inc. (“MAM” or the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America has been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014, which was filed with the SEC on September 23, 2014. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and determined that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes thereto, other than as disclosed in the accompanying notes.
NOTE 2. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
MAM Software Group, Inc. is a leading provider of business and supply chain management solutions primarily to the automotive parts manufacturers, retailers, tire and service chains, independent installers and wholesale distributors in the automotive aftermarket. The Company conducts its business through wholly owned subsidiaries with operations in Europe and North America. MAM Software Ltd. (“MAM Ltd.”) is based in Tankersley, Barnsley, United Kingdom and MAM Software, Inc. (“MAM US”) has offices in the United States in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
In the U.S., the Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At times deposits held with financial institutions in the U.S. may exceed the $250,000 limit.
In the U.K., the Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme up to 85,000GBP. At times deposits held with financial institutions in the U.K. may exceed the 85,000GBP limit.

Customers
The Company performs periodic evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require collateral to secure its accounts receivable. Credit risk is managed by discontinuing sales to customers who are delinquent. The Company estimates credit losses and returns based on management’s evaluation of historical experience and current industry trends. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.
No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014. No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Segment Reporting
The Company operates in one reportable segment. The Company evaluates financial performance on a company-wide basis. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker is the chief executive officer, who evaluates the Company as a single segment.
Geographic Concentrations
The Company conducts business in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. For customers headquartered in their respective countries, the Company derived 23% of its revenues from the U.S., 1% from Canada and 76% from its U.K. operations during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to 27% of its revenues from the U.S., 1% from Canada and 72% from its U.K. operations during the three months ended March 31, 2014.
The Company derived 25% of its revenues from the U.S., 1% from Canada and 74% from its U.K. operations during the nine months ended March 31, 2015 compared to 27% of its revenues from the U.S., 1% from Canada and 72% from its U.K. operations during the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
At March 31, 2015, the Company maintained 82% of its net property and equipment in the U.K. and the remaining 18% in the U.S. At June 30, 2014, the Company maintained 75% of its net property and equipment in the U.K. and the remaining 25% in the U.S.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by the Company’s management include, but are not limited to, the collectability of accounts receivable, the realizability of inventories, the recoverability of goodwill and other long-lived assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and the estimated fair value of stock options, warrants and shares issued for non-cash consideration. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. Financial assets and liabilities that are remeasured and reported at fair value at each reporting period are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
• Level 1 – Fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 – Fair value based on significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
• Level 3 – Fair value based on prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. Inputs would normally be a reporting entity’s own data and judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy may require significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or current estimated market value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consist primarily of hardware that will be sold to customers. The Company periodically reviews its inventories and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Once established, write-downs of inventories are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess inventories.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are being depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the related lease terms. Equipment under capital lease obligations is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the term of the lease. Maintenance and routine repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Depreciation and amortization expense was $59,000 and $59,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and was $182,000 and $175,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Software Development Costs
Costs incurred to develop computer software products to be sold or otherwise marketed are charged to expense until technological feasibility of the product has been established. Once technological feasibility has been established, computer software development costs (consisting primarily of internal labor costs) are capitalized and reported at the lower of amortized cost or estimated realizable value. Purchased software development cost is recorded at its estimated fair market value. When a product is ready for general release, its capitalized costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis. The annual amortization is the greater of the amounts of: the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product; and, the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life (a period of three years) of the product including the period being reported on. If the future market viability of a software product is less than anticipated, impairment of the related unamortized development costs could occur, which could significantly impact the Company’s results of operations. Amortization expense was $61,000 and $60,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $184,000 and $179,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Amortizable Intangible Assets
Amortizable intangible assets consist of completed software technology, customer relationships and automotive data services and are recorded at cost. Completed software technology and customer relationships are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of eight to ten years, and automotive data services are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 20 years. Amortization expense on amortizable intangible assets was $0 and $132,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $112,000 and $412,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill is not amortized but rather is tested at least annually for impairment.
Goodwill is subject to impairment reviews by applying a fair-value-based test at the reporting unit level, which generally represents operations one level below the segments reported by the Company. As of March 31, 2015, the Company does not believe there is an impairment of its goodwill. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products and services will continue which could result in impairment of goodwill in the future.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2015, goodwill activity was as follows:
Balance, July 1, 2014 | $ | 9,767,000 | ||
Effect of exchange rate changes | (946,000 | ) | ||
Balance, March 31, 2015 | $ | 8,821,000 |
Long-Lived Assets
The Company’s management assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets (other than goodwill discussed above) upon the occurrence of a triggering event by determining whether the carrying value of long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows over its remaining life. The amount of long-lived asset impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management. At March 31, 2015, management believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products and services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

Issuance of Equity Instruments to Non-Employees
All issuances of the Company’s equity instruments to non-employees are measured at fair value based upon either the fair value of the equity instruments issued or the fair value of consideration received, whichever is more readily determinable. The majority of stock issuance for non-cash consideration received pertains to services rendered by consultants and others and has been valued at the fair value of the equity instruments on the dates issued.
The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. Assets acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes.
Stock-Based Compensation
For valuing stock options awards, the Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing valuation model (“Black-Scholes”). For the expected term, the Company uses a simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term of the option. Volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of the option. For volatility the Company considers its own volatility as applicable for valuing its options and warrants. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The risk-free interest rate is based on the relevant U.S. Treasury Bill Rate at the time of each grant. The dividend yield represents the dividend rate expected to be paid over the option’s expected term; the Company currently has no plans to pay dividends.
On June 12, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved the Company’s 2007 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). Stock awarded under the LTIP are accounted for in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10-25-5. Since the awards were unilateral grants, the recipients do not have the ability to negotiate the key terms and the conditions of the grant, and the key terms and conditions were communicated to the individual recipients within a relatively short period of time. Therefore the grant and measurement dates are May 13, 2008, July 1, 2008, July 1, 2009, July 1, 2010, July 1, 2011, July 1, 2012, April 1, 2013 and July 1, 2014 for each respective stock award. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the LTIP, including stock awards and stock appreciation rights, is limited to 15% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the first trading day of any fiscal year. The Company issued restricted shares of common stock to management and board members in fiscal 2015 and 2014.
Revenue Recognition
Software license revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product component has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collectability is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue recognition is deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met. The Company accounts for delivered elements in accordance with the selling price when arrangements include multiple product components or other elements and vendor-specific objective evidence exists for the value of all undelivered elements. Revenues on undelivered elements are recognized once delivery is complete.

In those instances in which arrangements include significant customization, contractual milestones, acceptance criteria or other contingencies (which represents the majority of the Company’s arrangements), the Company accounts for the arrangements using contract accounting, as follows:
1) | When customer acceptance can be estimated, but reliable estimated costs to complete cannot be determined, expenditures are capitalized as work-in process and deferred until completion of the contract at which time the costs and revenues are recognized. |
2) | When customer acceptance cannot be estimated based on historical evidence, costs are expensed as incurred and revenue is recognized at the completion of the contract when customer acceptance is obtained. |
The Company records amounts collected from customers in excess of recognizable revenue as deferred revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Revenues for maintenance agreements, software support, on-line services and information products are recognized ratably over the term of the service agreement.

Foreign Currency
Management has determined that the functional currency of its subsidiaries is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of the U.K. subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the quarter-end exchange rates. Income and expenses are translated at an average exchange rate for the period and the resulting translation gain adjustments are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency translation income (loss) totaled $(673,000) and $89,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $(1,926,000) and $924,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Foreign currency gains and losses from transactions denominated in other than respective local currencies are included in income. The Company had no foreign currency transaction gains (losses) for all periods presented.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the components of comprehensive income consist of changes in foreign currency translation gains (losses).

Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. Deferred taxation is provided in full in respect of taxation deferred by timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company's practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“BEPS”) is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share (“DEPS”) is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the year. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants using the “treasury stock” method. The computation of DEPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 there were 94,580 and 94,580 common share equivalents included in the computation of DEPS. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, 866,252 shares of common stock vest based on the market price of the Company’s common stock and were excluded from the computation of DEPS because the shares have not vested (see below). For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, there were 140,813 and 92,435 common share equivalents included in the computation of DEPS. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, 1,698,505 shares of common stock vest based on the market price of the Company’s common stock. A total of 1,175,910 were excluded from the computation of DEPS because the shares have not vested (see below).
On December 31, 2014, 4,630 common stock purchase warrants expired.
In connection with the employment agreements with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (see Note 4), on April 27, 2012, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 1,165,359 shares of restricted stock. The shares vest based on the market price of the Company’s common stock. The Company issued these shares to the executives and they are being held by an escrow agent and will be released to the executives when they vest. On September 18, 2014, the Company released from escrow 174,804 shares of common stock to the executives which vested, as our Compensation Committee determined that the second threshold had been met pursuant to the Company’s LTIP and the executive’s employment agreements. The Company withheld 66,347 shares of common stock which were used to pay income taxes and those shares of common stock were retired by the Company.
On April 10, 2014, the Company released from escrow 466,144 shares of common stock to its Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer which vested, as our Compensation Committee determined that the initial threshold had been met pursuant to the Company’s LTIP and the employment agreements of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The Company withheld 151,806 shares of common stock which were used to pay income taxes and those shares were retired by the Company.
The Company excludes the remaining 524,411 of these escrow shares from the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations as the market price of the Company’s common stock did not trade at or above the target stock prices per the employment agreements during the reporting period.

Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled to when products are transferred to customers. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. On April 1, 2015, the FASB proposed deferring the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The FASB also proposed permitting early adoption of the standard, but not before the original effective date for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has not selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new revenue standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern. Currently, there is no guidance in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this ASU are effective for the reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company may become subject to various legal claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The ultimate disposition of such a proceeding if initiated could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. There are currently no pending legal proceedings.
Indemnities and Guarantees
The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its facility leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. In connection with its customers’ contracts, the Company indemnifies the customer that the software provided does not violate any U.S. patent. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Company Overview
MAM Software Group, Inc. (“MAM,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is a leading provider of integrated information management solutions and services and a leading provider of cloud-based software solutions for primarily the automotive aftermarket sector. The Company conducts its businesses through wholly owned subsidiaries with operations in Europe and North America. MAM Software Ltd. (“MAM Ltd.”) is based in Tankersley, Barnsley, United Kingdom and MAM Software, Inc. (“MAM US”) has offices in the United States in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
The Company is a leading global provider of on-premise and cloud-based business management solution for the auto parts, tires and other vertical distribution industries with similar dynamics. We have a broad line of software solutions and services to address the information technology (IT) needs of virtually every significant sector of the automotive aftermarket in the United Kingdom and North America and in the process of beginning to leverage this position into new industry verticals and new geographies around the world. At present, most of our customers in the U.K. have our software installed on-premise. For customers who prefer not to physically acquire the software and hardware, most of our software applications can be delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS), which utilizes the cloud. We provide professional IT services to our customers, including software and hardware installation, data conversion, training, and, at times, product modifications. We also provide continuing customer support services to ensure product performance and reliability, which provides us with long-term customer relationships and a significant base of recurring maintenance revenue.
Our Markets
MAM Software Group, Inc. provides software, information and related services to businesses engaged in the automotive aftermarket in the U.S., Canada, U.K. and Ireland. The automotive aftermarket consists of businesses associated with the life cycle of a motor vehicle from when the original manufacturer’s warranty expires to when the vehicle is scrapped. Products sold by businesses engaged in this market include the parts, tires and auto services required to maintain and improve the performance or appeal of a vehicle throughout its useful life. The Company aims to meet the business needs of customers who are involved in the maintenance and repair of automobiles and light trucks in three key segments of the automotive aftermarket, namely parts, tires and auto service.
The Company’s customer base consists of wholesale parts and tire distributors, retailers, franchisees, cooperatives, auto service chains and single location auto service businesses with high customer service expectations and complex commercial relationships.
In the U.K. and Ireland, the Company also provides management solutions to business involved in the wholesale of construction materials. These vertical markets include plumbing, building, lumber, and electrical wholesale distribution companies.

Market Dynamics & Opportunities
We believe that the largest single issue facing the automotive aftermarket at this time are lingering effects in the aftermath of the global economic downturn from the last decade. Notwithstanding general economic improvement over the past three to four years, automobile owners are continuing to retain their existing automobiles far longer than they may have previously planned. This phenomenon is forcing owners to seek out more economic ways of maintaining their vehicles, and we believe this ongoing trend continues to offer an opportunity for the Company to market its product and service offerings. For instance, the need for consumers to maintain their vehicles longer requires service suppliers to offer a wide range of services at highly competitive prices. We believe that this can be achieved only by those businesses that are able to efficiently manage their businesses and find methods to reduce costs without affecting service levels, which may best be done through investments in ‘up to date’ management information systems, specifically those designed for the automotive market. However, we have recently noticed that some businesses wishing to invest in new management systems are also finding their access to credit reduced. The continuing challenges for smaller businesses to gain access to credit on favorable terms may have a detrimental effect on our revenues if customers are unable to identify adequate resources necessary to fund purchases. As a means to addressing the lack of availability of credit for customers or potential customers, we have introduced Autopart Online which is a ‘rental’ or Software as a Service (SaaS) version of Autopart. Autopart Online does not require the customer to purchase hardware and software licenses upfront, they simply ‘rent’ the infrastructure and purchase the professional services required to implement the system. We believe that by removing the capital investment associated with Autopart, we will see an increase in interest in our Autopart Online solution.
Our Products and Services
The Company’s business management systems, information products and online services permit our customers to manage their critical day-to-day business operations through automated point-of-sale, information (content) products, inventory management, purchasing, general accounting and customer relationship management.
We provide professional IT services to our customers, including software and hardware installation, data conversion, training, and, at times, product modifications. We also provide continuing customer support services to ensure product performance and reliability, which provides us with long-term customer relationships and a significant base of recurring maintenance revenue.
Our Technologies
Our solutions are available as both 'on-premise' applications (sold via the traditional perpetual licensing model) and ‘cloud’ solutions that are delivered as a service over the Internet on a subscription basis.
Many of our business management applications are now available as Software as a Service (SaaS), where software and associated data is centrally hosted in the cloud. Depending on the complexity of the application, MAM SaaS solutions are deployed using 'cloud hosting' or 'web application' technology:
· | SaaS cloud hosting - single tenants accessing fully-managed virtual servers via thin client (terminal services) connections (e.g., Autopart Online); or |
· | SaaS web application - multiple tenants accessing a dedicated website using a standard web browser (e.g., Autowork Online). |
Our catalog information is also available in the cloud as Data as a Service (DaaS). We centrally host and maintain the data, which is accessed by users via a desktop application, web application or integrated into their B2C website. Many of our applications offer integration with third-party vendors as a service, commonly known as Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS). These services include: technical repair information; vehicle registration data (VRM); auto parts catalog data; zip code lookup; Internet electronic data interchange (or “Internet EDI”); website integration services; and mobile app connectivity.
Our Revenues
Our revenue and income is derived primarily from the sale of software, data, services and support. In the U.K., we also earn a percentage of our revenue and income from the sale of hardware systems to clients. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, we generated revenues of $7,659,000 and $23,737,000, respectively, with a net income of $721,000 and $2,255,000, respectively with 74% of the revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 coming from the U.K. market.

The Company’s revenues are derived from the following:
· | The sale of business management systems comprised of proprietary software applications, implementation and training; | |
· | Providing subscription-based services, including software support and maintenance, and online services for a fee; | |
· | Delivering our business management software as a service, commonly known as SaaS; | |
· | Delivering our catalogue information as a service, commonly known as DaaS; and | |
· | Enabling integration between systems and third-party vendors as a service, commonly known as iPaaS. |
Our Strategies
To date, our management has identified five areas that it believes we need to focus on. The first area is the continued growth of revenues derived from delivering our business management SaaS. Currently, our Autowork Online, our ‘installer’ solution in the U.K. and Autopart Online, our parts store solution, are being delivered in this way. Both products have been developed by MAM Ltd., our U.K. subsidiary, under the ‘cloud’ computing model. This is where software solutions are made available to end-users via the Internet and does not require them to purchase the software directly but ‘rent’ it over a fixed period of time. Our management believes that this will be a rapidly growing market for the U.K. as businesses continue to look for ways of reducing capital expenditures while maintaining levels of service. Autowork Online was launched in the U.K. in 2010 and as of March 31, 2015, we had 2,584 subscribers of this service. The product has just been localized and released into the U.S. market. Autopart Online was launched in the U.S. in August 2011, and as of March 31, 2015, we had 1,560 end-users subscribing to this service.
The second area of focus is the sales and marketing strategy within the U.S. market. Our management believes that continued investment in this key area is required to help the development of the MAM brand.
The third area of focus relates to the launch of our information service, Autocat+ in the U.S. Autocat+ is an auto parts catalog that uses the DaaS distribution model. MAM Ltd. centrally hosts and maintains the data, which is accessed by users via MAM's business management software, a standalone desktop application, or web application. Data can also be 'consumed' via a web-based service for integration into business-to-consumer websites. Information in Autocat+ is maintained through an automatic verification and standardization process, with updates published daily.
In the U.K., there are approximately 10,100 end-users (warehouse distributors, parts stores and auto service providers) who use our information products, for which a monthly or annual subscription fee is charged. Our management believes that launching a U.S. version of Autocat+ will help sell our business management software solutions.
The fourth area is within the U.K. market as we are continually working to sustain the levels of growth in the U.K. business by focusing on certain vertical markets, which share common issues to that of the automotive market. We have developed a reputation of high levels of service and knowledge within the automotive market; and are now working on replicating this reputation in these additional vertical markets. Our management intends to carefully monitor this expansion as a result of the current state of the global economy.
The fifth area is the continued investment in research and development that will allow us to deliver innovative new solutions and modules in support of the previous four key areas. During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, we announced the release of our latest generation B2C e-tailing and B2B e-commerce solutions. Together with our marketplace tools, application integration solutions and in-store management systems, they form an omni-channel commerce suite that enables businesses to manage all online and offline operations from within a single environment.
Our Progress
At present, most of our customers in the U.K. have our software installed on-premise. However, market acceptance of cloud computing for mission-critical enterprise applications has become increasingly common in recent years since software can be delivered cost-effectively, reliably, and securely to businesses over the Internet without the need for these businesses to purchase supporting software and hardware for an on-premise system or the need to keep IT people on staff to monitor and upgrade such a system.
-3- |
We introduced our first subscription-based service solution over the Internet in 2005 in the U.K., and we began marketing our first cloud system to customers in North America in 2013. Since that time, we have significantly expanded our cloud-based offerings and are offering customers that maintain on-premise installations significant incentives to move to our cloud-computing model. While transitioning our U.K. customers to a cloud computing model results in a decrease in our up-front revenue recognition, we believe that this is a necessary transition and is in the best interests of our customers and our own long-term business prospects as an increasing number of our customers in the U.K. are looking for solutions that are highly functional, easy to use, configurable, and fast.
Our cloud model is based on Microsoft .Net, HTML5 and SQL technologies that provide both open and secure platform with support for user experiences on both desktop and mobile devices. Our customers that have moved away from traditional on-premise software to our cloud-based service applications benefit by substantially reducing the complexity typical of on-premise software implementations, customizations, and upgrades. Through cloud computing, we supply and manage the hardware, infrastructure, ongoing maintenance, and backup services for our customers. We install the latest version of our software for our customers, thereby reducing their need to buy and maintain their own IT resources. As a part of our cloud-based model, we provide installation, training, and support services to our customers. In the North American market we have a smaller customer base and by offering a cloud-based solution, it will prove to be an important part of our strategic growth. We anticipate that this solution will positively impact the marketplace and ultimately increase our market share within North America.
We intend to continue to work at maximizing customer retention by supplying and developing products that streamline and simplify customer operations, thereby increasing their profit margin. We expect to continue to build our recurring revenue stream. We believe that we can continue to grow our customer base through additional sales personnel, targeted media and marketing campaigns and products that completely fit clients’ requirements. We also intend to service existing clients to higher levels and increasingly partner with them so that together we’ll both achieve our goals.
Our current plans still require us to hire additional sales and marketing staff, to expand within the U.S. market, to target new vertical markets effectively in the U.K. and to support expanded operations overall.
We believe our plan will strengthen our relationships with our existing customers and provide new income streams by targeting new vertical markets for our Autopart product.
Impact of Currency Exchange Rate
Our net revenues derived from sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar was 77% and 75% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, respectively, as compared to 73% and 73% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014. As the U.S. dollar becomes stronger in relation to the Great Britain Pound (“GBP”), as it has recently done, our revenue and income, which is reported in U.S. dollars, is negatively impacted. Changes in the currency values occur regularly and in some instances may have a significant effect on our results of operations.
Income and expenses of MAM Ltd. are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, the exchange rate for MAM Ltd.’s operating results was US$1.5903 per 1GBP, compared with US$1.6072 per 1GBP for the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
Assets and liabilities of MAM Ltd. are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rates. The exchange rate used for translating MAM Ltd. was U.S. $1.4834 per 1GBP at March 31, 2015 and U.S. $1.7028 per 1GBP at June 30, 2014.
Currency translation gain and (loss) adjustments are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, which totaled ($673,000) and $89,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and ($1,926,000) and $924,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
As of March 31, 2015, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of business management systems of $1,676,000 compared to a backlog of $1,980,000 at March 31, 2014. We expect to fill approximately 65% of such backlog during the next six months.

Revenues. Revenues were $7,659,000 and $23,737,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, respectively, a decrease of 3% and an increase of 4%, respectively, compared with revenues of $7,868,000 and $22,791,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, respectively. The strength of the U.S. dollar vs. GBP resulted in a $140,000 and a $263,000 reduction in revenues from our U.K. operations for the three and nine month ended March 31, 2015.
Revenues were $7,659,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 a decrease of $209,000 or 3% compared with revenues of $7,868,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The decrease in cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was 4% or $142,000, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. Our U.K. operations experienced an increase of 40,000GBP from 1,467,000GBP to 1,507,000GBP for three months ended March 31, 2015 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The U.S. dollar denominated decrease was $130,000, the result of the strength of the U.S. dollar. The U.S. operations experienced a decrease of $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014.
The decrease in the cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 was $99,000 or 1% as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2014. Our U.K. operations experienced an increase of 2,000GBP from 4,306,000GBP to 4,308,000GBP and resulted in a U.S. dollar denominated decrease of $70,000 or 1% for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2014, the result in the recent strength of the U.S. dollar. Our U.S. operations experienced a decrease of $29,000, compared to last year. The decrease costs are directly related to the decrease of $114,000 in professional service salaries and related expenses offset by a $70,000 increase in third party subscription costs we resell, for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2014.

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, operating expenses decreased by $177,000, or 5% compared with the three months ended March 31, 2014. For the nine months ended March 31, 2015, operating expenses increased by $401,000 or 3.8% compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2014. This is due to the following:
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased by $12,000 or 1.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and increased by $135,000 or 5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014. The increase for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 is primarily a result of an increase in the number of personnel working on customer development projects and development of new products, all being done in the U.K.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $52,000 or 5% during the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2014 and increased by $26,000 or 1% for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 as compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2014. This decrease is primarily due to lower rebranding efforts for the current trade show activities, advertising, and sales expenses, compared to last year. Sales and marketing expenses increased slightly for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 as there are now dedicated sales personnel for the tire market, trader and other vertical markets in the U.K. business unit.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $18,000 or 2% to $1,255,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to $1,237,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increased expenses were primarily the result of additional salaries and benefits for administrative staff in the U.K. offset by lower administrative expenses in U.S. business units, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. For the nine months ended March 31, 2015, general and administrative expenses increased by $528,000 or 14% to $4,325,000 as compared to $3,797,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014. The increased expenses were primarily the result of additional salaries and benefits for administration staff in the U.K. and related to payroll taxes for bonuses paid out in the U.S. business units.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $131,000, or 52%, and $288,000, or 38%, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, due to assets being fully depreciated.

Operating Income. Operating income was $966,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $110,000 or 13% as compared to $856,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Operating income was $2,906,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $644,000 or 29% as compared to $2,262,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
Interest expense. Interest expense was $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, and decreased $28,000 or 76% to $9,000 from $37,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2014. The decrease in interest expense is related to a reduction in our total interest bearing liabilities.
Income Taxes. Income taxes increased by $48,000 or 24.9% to $241,000 from $193,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and increased by $161,000, or 33.5%, to $642,000 from $481,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015 as compared to three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, because of increased earnings.
Net Income. As a result of the above, we reported net income of $721,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with net income of $659,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and net income of $2,255,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, compared with a net income of $1,744,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014. The strength of the U.S. dollar resulted in a $34,000 reduction in net income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash generated from operations. To date, most of our profits have been generated in Europe, but with the introduction of new products and efforts to streamline our U.S. operations, we expect to see a continued increase in overall revenues with a contribution from U.S. operations in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015.
At March 31, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5,555,000. During the nine months ended March 31, 2015, we experienced positive operating cash flow, but our cash position decreased by approximately $1,453,000 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2014, after capital expenditures of $1,519,000 and $1,025,000 were utilized to repurchase treasury shares. We currently have no interest bearing liabilities.
We expect to see positive earnings and cash flow from both the U.S. and U.K. operations for the balance of fiscal 2015, with continued growth in revenues and operating income from the U.S. operation. We have identified a number of opportunities to widen our client base within the automotive industry and are actively pursuing those at this time. We also expect to see increases in revenue over the next quarter, specifically due to additional products that have been developed by the U.S. operation which are currently being released to customers, and the continued growth of our Autopart line of products in the U.S. market.
We believe our existing cash balance, and the cash expected to be generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our level of net sales, the timing and extent of expenditures to support our development activities and the continued market acceptance of our products.
We could be required, or we may choose, to seek additional funding through public or private equity or debt financing. In addition, in connection with any future acquisitions, we may require additional funding which may be provided in the form of additional debt or equity financing or a combination of both. These additional funds may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
Working Capital
Working capital at March 31, 2015, was $5,238,000, as compared to working capital of $5,599,000 at June 30, 2014. The working capital decrease resulted primarily from a $1,453,000 decrease in cash, a $154,000 increase in inventories, a $238,000 increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, a $235,000 decrease in accounts payable, a $179,000 decrease in accrued expenses, a decrease of $171,000 in sales tax payable, an increase of $108,000 in income tax payable, and a decrease of $316,000 in payroll and other taxes.

We intend to continue to work at maximizing customer retention by supplying and developing products that streamline and simplify customer operations, thereby increasing their profit margin. We expect to continue to build our recurring revenue stream. We believe that we can continue to grow our customer base through additional sales personnel, targeted media and marketing campaigns and products that completely fit clients’ requirements. We also intend to service existing clients to higher levels and increasingly partner with them so that together we and our customers will each both achieve our goals.
Our current plans still require us to hire additional sales and marketing staff, to expand within the U.S. market, to target new vertical markets effectively in the U.K. and to support expanded operations overall.
We believe our plan will strengthen our relationships with our existing customers and provide new income streams by targeting new vertical markets for our Autopart product.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
There were no changes to those policies disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure of Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports, filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
As required by the SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
-8- |
We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our company’s or our company’s subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect. From time to time, we may become involved legal proceedings, lawsuits, claims and regulations in the ordinary course of our business.
There have been no changes that constitute a material change from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 23, 2014.

Repurchases may take place in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, including derivative transactions, and may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan previously established by us. The aforementioned program, as amended, does not have an expiration date. |
