NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2013

NOTE A – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Numerex Corp. is a leading provider of interactive and on-demand machine-to-machine (M2M) enterprise solutions. We provide our services through our integrated M2M horizontal platforms that we call Numerex DNA®. These platforms incorporate the key M2M elements of Device (D), Network (N), and Application (A), and are generally offered on a subscription basis through our application service platform, Numerex FAST® (Foundation Application Software Technology). Numerex FAST® allows us to simplify and accelerate the delivery of M2M solutions to enterprise-based vertical markets. Business services are also offered to enable the development of efficient, reliable, and secure solutions while accelerating deployment. We are ISO 27001 information security-certified, highlighting our focus on M2M data security, service reliability and around-the-clock support of our customers’ M2M solutions.

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. We have eliminated intercompany transactions and balances in consolidation. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, reference is also made to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the consolidated financial statements contained therein.

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain reclassifications for discontinued operations (see Note C) have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current presentation.

SEGMENT REPORTING

Following the reclassification of discontinued operations (see Note C), we have only a single reporting segment.

NOTE B – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance related to the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This guidance clarifies that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward if such settlement is required or expected in the event the uncertain tax position is disallowed. In situations where a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Retrospective application is permitted. We will comply with the presentation requirements of this guidance for the quarter ending March 31, 2014. Because the guidance only affects presentation, we do not expect adoption to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

NUMEREX CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2013

In March 2013, the FASB issued new accounting guidance to resolve the diversity in practice regarding the release into net income of the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. The guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations, absent any material transactions involving the derecognition of subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity.

In January 2013, we adopted new accounting guidance to improve the transparency of reporting reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance requires us to (a) present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes to the financial statements) the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income, but only if the item reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period and (b) cross-reference to other disclosures currently required under GAAP for other reclassification items (that are not required under GAAP) to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. Because the guidance impacts presentation only, adoption had no effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2013, we adopted new guidance that allows us to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived asset is impaired for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. Upon adoption, the guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE C – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As part of the strategic planning process conducted during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the decision was made to exit certain businesses and related products that are not core to future business plans. These non-core businesses include BNI Solutions, Inc. (BNI), Digilog, Inc. and DCX Systems, Inc. These businesses were previously reported in our consolidated financial statements as a separate segment, “Other Services”. The related products and services include video conferencing hardware and installation of telecommunications equipment, all of which are unrelated to our core M2M communication products and services. We anticipate a sale of the discontinued operations to be completed within one year.

Accounting guidance requires that the discontinued operations be segregated and reclassified from ongoing, continuing operations for all financial statement periods presented. All assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations have been reclassified into two line items, assets and liabilities of discontinued operations, and classified as current in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Similarly, all revenue and expense of the discontinued operations have been reclassified and presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income as results of discontinued operations, net of income taxes after income (loss) from continuing operations and before net income.

Net (loss) income	$	(1,424	)	$	125	$	(1,436	)	$	53

Discontinued operations include $0.9 million for the impairment of historical BNI goodwill, $0.6 million additional reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable and less than $0.1 million estimated costs to sell the discontinued operations. The carrying value of BNI goodwill was re-evaluated for impairment in conjunction with our decision to exit these non-core businesses. We will not be pursing new sales of BNI products and services and do not anticipate significant recurring sales to existing customers. These qualitative factors were indicators that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the BNI reporting unit was less than its carrying amount, including goodwill.

NOTE D – ACQUISITION

2013 Acquisition

On February 1, 2013, we purchased substantially all of the assets and business of VoiceDataWare, Inc. d/b/a AVIDwireless (AVID). AVID provides products and services for environmental monitoring, wireless remote control and monitoring, wireless sensor networks, and connected device consulting. We acquired the AVID assets to expand our technical capabilities and the market segments we serve. The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method.

Total consideration was $1.1 million, comprised of $0.2 million in cash and 73,587 time-restricted shares of our class A common stock having a fair value of $0.9 million. The shares are expected to be issued in 2013 and are reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet and condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity as common stock issuable.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2013

The following table sets forth the allocation of the purchase price (in thousands):


Accounts receivable	$	35
Inventory		55
Fixed assets		25
Software		967
Trademarks		32
Deferred revenue		(12	)
Net assets acquired	$	1,102

The total purchase consideration was allocated to identifiable assets purchased and liabilities assumed based on fair value. Software and trademarks have average estimated useful lives of 3.5 years and 5 years, respectively. The fair value of acquired software was estimated using a cost approach based on assumptions of our historical software development costs. The fair value of trademarks was based on an income approach with key assumptions including estimated royalty rates to license the trademarks from a third party. No portion of the purchase price was allocated to goodwill. Amortization expense was less than $0.1 million from the date of the acquisition.

The results of operations and cash flows are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition and include the addition of five employees. Transaction costs were recorded as general and administrative expense as incurred. The operating results and cash flows from the acquired assets and business were not significant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and are expected to be modest during the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2013. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented, as the acquisition was not material to our results of operations for the periods presented.

2012 Acquisition

On October 1, 2012, we acquired a small technology business. The acquisition date fair value was $4.4 million, comprised of $2.0 million in cash, $1.9 million promissory note payable to the sellers, 41,521 shares of our common shares at a fair value of $0.5 million and the assumption of certain liabilities. Through the acquisition, we acquired substantially all of the assets of the target, consisting primarily of technology and intellectual property which included a portfolio of patents. The acquisition supports and widens our M2M platform capabilities in real-time monitoring of critical assets and events. The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method.

Although the acquisition of assets included an active base of customers that currently generate subscription-based recurring revenue, the financial impact was not significant during the year ended December 31, 2012 and is expected to be modest during the year ended December 31, 2013. If we had made the acquisition as of January 1, 2012, total pro forma consolidated revenue would have been higher by approximately $0.3 and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, and pro-forma consolidated net loss and net income from continuing operations lower by less than $0.1 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The pro forma financial information is presented for comparative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that actually would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place as of January 1, 2012.

NOTE F – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible Assets Other Than Goodwill

We did not incur significant costs to renew or extend the term of existing intangible assets during the three or six months ending June 30, 2013 or the year ended December 31, 2012. Amortizing intangible assets consisted of the following (in thousands):


	June 30, 2013									December 31, 2012
	Weighted Average		Gross		Accumulated			Net Book		Gross		Accumulated			Net Book
	Reamaining Useful Lives		Carrying Amount		Amortization			value		Carrying Amount		Amortization			value

			$	26,348	$	(14,741	)	$	11,607	$	24,147	$	(13,494	)	$	10,653

Amortization expense of intangible assets was $1.0 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and $0.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

Goodwill

We have not recorded any changes in goodwill related to continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013. No goodwill was recognized from the acquisition of AVID (see Note D). We recorded a $0.9 million impairment of goodwill related to a discontinued business which is reflected in discontinued operations (see Note C).

NOTE G – INCOME TAXES

We recorded an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $2.5 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to nominal income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The effective tax rates were 120.2% and 120.9%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 1.4% and 1.1%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The difference between our effective tax rates and the 34.0% federal statutory tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 resulted primarily from our tax accounting method change allowing a one-time acceleration and catch-up of depreciation and amortization. The tax accounting method change related to our 2003 acquisition of our former joint venture partner’s interest in our Cellemetry LLC subsidiary. State tax accruals related to unrecognized tax benefits also contributed to the difference between the effective and federal statutory tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

The difference between our effective tax rates and federal statutory tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 resulted primarily from our valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance against federal net operating losses and certain other deferred tax assets was released during the three months ended September 30, 2012. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance against a portion of deferred tax assets that we determined we would more likely than not utilize before expiration. The deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance consist of certain state net operating losses, tax credits, and foreign net operating losses.

We file U.S., state and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitation. The 2009 through 2012 tax years generally remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities. In addition, certain returns from earlier years in which net operating losses have arisen are still open for examination by the tax authorities.

NOTE H – CAPITAL LEASES

We record leases in which we have substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership as capital leases and all other leases as operating leases. For leases determined to be capital leases, we record the assets held under capital lease and related obligations at the lesser of the present value of aggregate future minimum lease payments or the fair value of the assets held under capital lease. We amortize the assets over the lease term.

During 2013, we entered into capital leases for computer and network equipment having a value of $0.7 million and expiring in 2015. Future minimum capital lease payments and the present value of the net minimum lease payments for all capital leases as of June 30, 2013 are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE I – EQUITY

On April 25, 2011, we filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC. Subject to market conditions, the registration statement allowed us, from time to time, to offer and sell up to $30.0 million of equity securities as described in the registration statement. The registration statement was declared effective on May 2, 2011.

On January 23, 2013, we filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC in connection with an offering of up to 2.3 million shares of our common stock with an additional 0.4 million shares available for purchase by the underwriters on exercise of its overallotment option. We received net proceeds of $27.7 million after underwriting fees and discounts for 2.7 million shares. We used $6.5 million of the proceeds to repay all outstanding amounts of principal and accrued interest owed to Silicon Valley Bank in January 2013.

NOTE J - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

	●	Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
	●	Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

●

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2013

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 (none as of December 31, 2012) are summarized as follows (in thousands):


	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
June 30, 2013
Investment in short-term U.S.
Treasury funds (cash equivalents)	$	19,118	$	-	$	-	$	19,118

The fair value of other financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable, approximate carrying value, principally because of the short-term, maturity of those items. The fair value of our capitalized lease obligation approximates carrying value based on the short-term maturity of the obligation. The fair value of our long-term notes receivable and payable approximates carrying value based on their effective interest rates compared to current market rates and similar type borrowing arrangements.

NOTE K – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, stock-based compensation expense was $0.4 million and $0.7 million respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, stock-based compensation was $0.3 million and $0.7 million respectively. Total unrecognized compensation related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees and members of our board of directors at June 30, 2013, net of estimated forfeitures, is $6.1 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years.

NOTE L – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic net earnings per share available to common shareholders is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and issuable during the period. Diluted net earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding share-based compensation awards and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings.

The following table sets forth the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for earnings per share calculations as disclosed on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive (loss) income (in thousands):

Overview

As used herein, except as otherwise indicated by context, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Numerex” refers to Numerex Corp. and subsidiaries.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of the Company. This discussion and analysis is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013.

We are headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. We are a leading provider of on-demand and interactive machine-to-machine (M2M) enterprise solutions.

Our strategy has remained, at its core, the same: to generate long-term and sustainable recurring revenue through the use of our integrated M2M horizontal platforms that we call Numerex DNA®. These platforms incorporate the key M2M elements of Device (D), Network (N), and Application (A), and are generally offered on a subscription basis through our application service platform, Numerex FAST® (Foundation Application Software Technology). Numerex FAST® allows us to simplify and accelerate the delivery of M2M solutions to enterprise-based vertical markets. We are ISO 27001 information security-certified, highlighting our focus on M2M data security, service reliability and around-the-clock support of our customers’ M2M solutions.

NUMEREX CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

While our overall business has grown and we believe that our prospect for future sales opportunities is strong, particularly demand from our channel partners for our network and application platforms, general economic uncertainty remains and may reduce or limit our future growth. We have continued to closely monitor our credit policies in response to the economic climate, especially for our hardware-only sales.

Net sales increased 9.4% to $17.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $15.8 million for the similar period in 2012. Net sales increased 12.2% to $33.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $30.1 million for the similar period in 2012. We also added 139,000 net new subscriptions during the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, an increase of 20% compared to the 116,000 net new subscriptions added during the similar period in 2012. Total subscriptions increased 38% to 2.2 million as of June 30, 2013, compared to 1.6 million as of June 30, 2012. Discontinued operations have no effect on our subscription base as these entities are not part of our core business.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies, estimates and judgments during the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the disclosures in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Subscription revenue and support increased 20.4% to $12.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was related to growth in M2M subscriptions to both new and existing customers. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we added 139,000 net new subscriptions, bringing total subscriptions to 2.2 million. Embedded devices and hardware revenue decreased 11.9% to $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $5.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily related to delays from a contract manufacturer that produces devices for certain of our customers. We have also offered modest promotional price discounts for non-4G devices and hardware to maintain sales of those products as we continue to introduce new 4G products.

Cost of sales for subscription revenue and support increased 30.6% to $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase reflects additional carrier fees associated with subscription growth and colocation costs for a new redundant network site to support revenue growth and to ensure continued maximum service reliability for our customers. Cost of sales for embedded devices and hardware increased 8.9% to $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase includes higher product costs associated with the newer 4G devices and also a $0.5 million increase in the inventory reserve for obsolescence on older technology products.

NUMEREX CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales and marketing expense remained consistent at $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

General and administrative expense increased 54.3% to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. A portion of the increase is attributed to an additional $0.7 million in professional and consulting fees. Professional fees and consulting fees include (a) additional costs incurred in response to and remediation of the internal control deficiencies identified in the audit of our annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, (b) legal fees associated with potential new product development for one of our customers and (c) costs incurred in conjunction with development of our long-term strategic plan. Salary and stock option compensation expense increased $0.6 million, including $0.3 million incurred as part of the realignment of our executive team.

Engineering and development expense increased 62.3% to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase in compensation and employee related expenses as well as increased fees to consultants and contractors as we continue developing new products, services and applications to support our current customers and to facilitate growth opportunities in our targeted vertical markets.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 66.2% to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase includes the amortization of additional internally developed software and, to a lesser extent, intangible assets from the two acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first quarter of 2013.

Interest remained consistent at less than $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012. All outstanding amounts of principal and accrued interest on our bank loans were repaid in January 2013 using the proceeds from the public offering of our shares of common stock. We will continue to recognize interest expense for the seller-financed note payable related to the October 2012 acquisition, deferred financing and other costs to maintain the bank credit facilities and capital leases.

We recorded an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to nominal income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The effective tax rates were 120.2% and 1.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The difference between our effective tax rate and the 34.0% federal statutory tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2013 resulted primarily from our tax accounting method change allowing a one-time acceleration and catch-up of depreciation and amortization. The tax accounting method change related to our 2003 acquisition of our former joint venture partner’s interest in our Cellemetry LLC subsidiary. State tax accruals related to unrecognized tax benefits also contributed to the difference between the effective and federal statutory tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2013.The difference between our effective tax rate and federal statutory tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2012 resulted primarily from our valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance against federal net operating losses and certain other deferred tax assets was released during the three months ended September 30, 2012. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance against a portion of deferred tax assets that we determined we would more likely than not utilize before expiration. The deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance consist of certain state net operating losses, tax credits, and foreign net operating losses.

The loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes was $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to net income of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the loss included a $0.9 million impairment of goodwill and $0.6 million reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable. As previously discussed, the discontinued operations businesses are unrelated to our core M2M communication products and services and have been experiencing declining operating results.

Subscription revenue and support increased 20.2% to $24.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $20.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was related to growth in M2M subscriptions. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we added 287,000 net new subscriptions, exceeding 2.2 million subscriptions as of June 30, 2013. Embedded devices and hardware revenue decreased 4.6% to $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily related to delays from a contract manufacturer that produces devices for certain of our customers. We have also offered modest promotional price discounts for non-4G devices and hardware to maintain sales of those products as we continue to introduce new 4G products.

Cost of sales for subscription revenue and support increased 30.0% to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase reflects additional carrier fees associated with subscription growth and colocation costs for a new redundant network site to support revenue growth and to ensure continued maximum service uptime for our customers. Cost of sales for embedded devices and hardware increased 14.0% to $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase includes higher product costs associated with the newer 4G devices and also a $0.5 million increase in the inventory reserve for obsolescence on older technology products.

NUMEREX CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Sales and marketing expense increased 1.3% to $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $0.3 million in certain marketing and travel costs related to tradeshows and the timing of sales and marketing activities. The increase is partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million related to compensation expense of sales and marketing personnel.

General and administrative expense increased 31.4% to $6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. A portion of the increase is attributed to an additional $0.9 million in professional and consulting fees. Professional fees include (a) additional costs incurred in response to and remediation of the internal control deficiencies identified in the audit of our annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, (b) legal fees associated with potential new product development for one of our customers and (c) costs incurred in conjunction with development of our long-term strategic plan. Salary and stock option compensation increased $0.7 million, including $0.3 million incurred as part of the realignment of the executive team.

Engineering and development expense increased 43.5% to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase in compensation and employee related expenses as well as increased fees to consultants and contractors as we continue developing new products, services and applications to support our current customers and to facilitate growth opportunities in our targeted vertical markets.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 46.2% to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase includes the amortization of additional internally developed software and, to a lesser extent, intangible assets from the two acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first quarter of 2013.

Interest expense was $0.1 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012. All outstanding amounts of principal and accrued interest on our bank loans were repaid in January 2013 using the proceeds from the public offering of our shares of common stock. We will continue to recognize interest expense for the seller-financed note payable related to the October 2012 acquisition, deferred financing and other costs to maintain the bank credit facilities and capital leases.

We recorded an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $2.5 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to nominal income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The effective tax rates were 120.9% and 1.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The difference between our effective tax rate and the 34.0% federal statutory tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 resulted primarily from our tax accounting method change allowing a one-time acceleration and catch-up of depreciation and amortization. The tax accounting method change related to our 2003 acquisition of our former joint venture partner’s interest in our Cellemetry LLC subsidiary. State tax accruals related to unrecognized tax benefits also contributed to the difference between the effective and federal statutory tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2013.The difference between our effective tax rate and federal statutory tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 resulted primarily from our valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance against federal net operating losses and certain other deferred tax assets was released during the three months ended September 30, 2012. We continue to maintain a valuation allowance against a portion of deferred tax assets that we determined we would more likely than not utilize before expiration. The deferred tax assets with a valuation allowance consist of certain state net operating losses, tax credits, and foreign net operating losses.

The loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes was $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to net income of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the loss included a $0.9 million impairment of goodwill and a $0.6 million reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable. As previously discussed, the discontinued operations businesses are unrelated to our core M2M communication products and services and have been experiencing declining operating results.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had working capital of $32.4 million and $12.2 million as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. We had cash balances of $24.1 million and $4.9 million, as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 respectively.

Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.2 million. The primary non-cash adjustments to net income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were additions of $2.3 million for depreciation and amortization and $0.7 million for stock compensation expense less a reduction of $2.5 million for deferred income taxes. The changes in operating assets and liabilities included a $1.1 million net increase in accounts and notes receivable and a $1.5 million net increase in inventory.

Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.8 million, primarily for purchases and capitalization of internally developed software.

Net cash provided by financing activities of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $20.9 million, primarily comprised of $27.7 million net proceeds of our underwritten offering, discussed further below, less repayment of $6.8 million for the outstanding balance of our bank debt and principal payments on seller-financed debt.

Net cash used in discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.1 million. Cash flows associated with the revenue-producing and cost-generating activities of the discontinued operations will be eliminated following their disposal.

At June 30, 2013, we had no outstanding balance on our credit facility, no letters of credit outstanding, and available credit of $15.0 million at a variable interest rate of 4%. We were in compliance with all financial covenants of the credit agreement at June 30, 2013. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, no further borrowings had been made under the credit facility.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents together with expected cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements for at least the next twelve months. This belief could be affected by future results that differ from expectations or a material adverse change in our operating business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2013, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

NUMEREX CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks.

We hold cash balances in accounts with commercial banks in the United States and foreign countries. These cash balances represent operating balances only and are invested in short-term time deposits. Certain cash balances exceeded insured limits. Operating cash balances held at banks outside the United States are denominated in the local currency and are minor.

Foreign Currency

The assets and liabilities of our foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates, and revenue and expense are translated at the ending exchange rate from the prior period which materially approximates the average exchange rates for each period. Resulting translation adjustments are reflected as other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. Except for transactions with customers and vendors in Canada, substantially all other transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars. Foreign operations were not significant to us for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on management’s identification of the previously reported deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that it considers to be material weaknesses, management has concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at June 30, 2013. Steps being undertaken to remediate these weaknesses are discussed below.

The Company is continuing to reinforce its processes to address the previously reported material weaknesses. The Company believes the steps being taken to remediate these weaknesses are appropriate and the Company expects the majority of the weaknesses, if not all, to be fully remediated before the end of its fiscal year. Remediation efforts include:

Segregation of Duties: We intend to improve the segregation of duties with the combination of increasing finance personnel and reassigning certain responsibilities within the group. We believe that the hiring of additional finance personnel as of July 1, 2013 fulfills the immediate personnel requirements. We continue consulting with external experts to assess and improve our financial application security roles to optimize appropriate segregation of duties. We expect remediation of segregation of duties to be complete and ready for testing during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Financial Close: We are re-evaluating the appropriate supporting documentation, preparation, review and approval (with additional standards for format and timing of general ledger account reconciliations) and have performed staff training. This re-evaluation and training will continue. We are in the process of identifying standard and non-standard manual journal entries so that appropriate levels of review are put in place and appropriate supporting documentation is included and retained with the journal entries. We have also engaged external experts to review how we utilize our financial accounting application to maximize use of the system automated processes to reduce the number of required manual journal entries. We have also added additional qualified personnel so that the financial close process procedures can be performed in an appropriate and timely manner.

Non-routine transactions: We added the identification and review of non-routine transactions to our monthly financial review meetings including documenting such transactions. In addition, we intend to provide periodic internal control and accounting training sessions for the benefit of the accounting department, designed to ensure staff have the opportunity to further develop their knowledge, expertise and training in U.S. GAAP with respect to significant non-routine transactions and technical accounting matters.

NUMEREX CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Inventory: Physical Inventory procedures were completely re-written and expanded to provide additional controls including:

●

Creating a pre-inventory preparation checklist

●

Introduction of dated and signed decals to mark counted boxes

●

Improved labeling of locations and SKUs

●

Addition of locations for quarantine and receiving

●

Required two-person count teams and arbiter

We have completed training of all employees supporting physical inventory on the above procedures and we have hired an experienced Inventory Manager responsible for overseeing and reconciling the companywide physical inventory. Warehouses have also been reorganized to improve the inventory count process and quality control managers have observed several physical inventory counts and conducted mock audits.

Contractual Agreements: We have licensed and begun implementation and training on a new contract management solution. The contract management solution will require review and pre-approval, including accounting personnel to identify potential accounting issues. Training has been and will continue to be targeted to personnel in the sales and procurement/purchasing areas of the Company. In addition, new contracts will be discussed in monthly financial review meetings, identifying those that may require different or new accounting treatment. We will seek external expertise where necessary for new complex arrangements.

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this report present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting other than as described above.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We currently are not involved in any pending material litigation.

At June 30, 2013, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
