("Tiger X" or the "Company"), formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, previously operated as an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices. During 2010, the Company discontinued its operations and sold the assets from its previous business lines during 2011. Our continuing operations include the collection and management of our royalty income earned in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, Inc. ("Arthrex"). We continue to advance and promote our former knee product lines through participation in mobile teaching labs, seminars and live surgery. The Company is constantly evaluating opportunities for a suitable joint venture partner or buyer for the remaining intellectual property owned by the Company. The Company is also evaluating investment opportunities and uses for its cash. *Basis of Presentation* The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). *Principles of Consolidation* The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tiger X, Accelerated Innovation, Inc. ("Accelerated"), Uni-Knee LLC ("Uni") and Cervical Xpand LLC ("Cervical"). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. *Royalty Agreement* On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex (the agreement being the "Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell the assets of the Reconstructive Division to Arthrex. The Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement also provides for the Company to receive royalty payments equal to 5% of net sales of the Company's products made by Arthrex on a quarterly basis for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date. During the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company received total royalty payments of $517,000 and $427,000, respectively, from Arthrex. These amounts are reflected as royalty income on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. *Use of Estimates* Financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management makes estimates relating to the estimated depreciable lives of property and equipment, share-based payment and the valuation allowance related to deferred income tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. *Cash and Cash Equivalents* Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are with local and national banking institutions and subjected to current FDIC insurance limits of $250,000 per banking institution. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company bank balances in these bank accounts exceeded the insured amount by $13,593,000 and $13,274,000, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses related to this concentration of risk. *Fair Value of Financial Instruments* The Company has estimated the fair value amounts of its financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methodologies considered to be appropriate. The Company has determined that the book value of the Company's other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 is the approximate fair value. *Share-Based Payment* The Company recognizes equity-based compensation using the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is calculated based on the fair value at the time of the grant and is recognized as expense over the vesting period of the instrument in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There were no stock option awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2015 or 2014. *Revenue Recognition* Revenue consists of royalty income, which is recorded as the amount becomes known and collectability is reasonably assured. *Income Taxes* Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. 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 as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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 likelihood of realizing the tax benefits related to a potential deferred tax asset is evaluated, and a valuation allowance is recognized to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the beginning and end of the year; the change in the sum of the deferred tax asset, valuation allowance and deferred tax liability during the year generally is recognized as a deferred tax expense or benefit. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company evaluates the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in its financial statements and determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit is recorded in its financial statements. Where applicable, associated interest and penalties are also recorded. The Company has not accrued for any such uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. *Net Income Per Share* Basic net income per share is computed by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options or warrants. No dilutive potential common shares were included in the computation of diluted net income per share because their impact was anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had total options of 385,000 which were excluded from the computation of net income per share because they are anti-dilutive. *Recent Accounting Pronouncements* In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 creates a new topic in the ASC Topic 606 and establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model, changes the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics, and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. In addition, ASU 2014-09 adds a new Subtopic to the Codification, ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs: Contracts with Customers, to provide guidance on costs related to obtaining a contract with a customer and costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer that are not in the scope of another ASC Topic. The guidance in ASU 2014- 09 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Early application is not permitted. Management is in the process of assessing the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company's financial statements.
