SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding, among other things, the anticipated financial and operating results of the Company. For this purpose, forward-looking statements are any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact and include, but are not limited to, those preceded by or that include the words, “estimate,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “likely,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” “intend,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projected,” or similar expressions. Those statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the statements. The forward-looking information is based on various factors and was derived using numerous assumptions. Important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those projected, include, for example:

general economic, market or business conditions;
the ability of the Company to generate sufficient sales to generate operating profits, or to conduct operations at a profit;
the ability of the Company to raise funds in the future through sales of securities in order to sustain its operations if an unexpected or unusual event would occur;
the ability of the Company to compete with its competitors to obtain market share;
whether the Company’s customers purchase or rent ePort devices or our other products in the future at levels currently anticipated by our Company, including our JumpStart Program;
whether the Company’s customers continue to operate or commence operating ePorts received under the JumpStart Program or otherwise at levels currently anticipated by the Company;
whether the Company’s customers continue to utilize the Company’s transaction processing and related services, as our customer agreements are generally cancelable by the customer on thirty to sixty days’ notice;
whether the significant increase in the interchange fees charged by Visa and MasterCard for small ticket debit card transactions effective October 1, 2011, would adversely affect our business, including our revenues, gross profits, and anticipated future connections to our network;
whether our current one-year agreement with VISA relating to interchange rates that expires in October 2012 will be renewed, although management believes that the agreement will be renewed;
the ability of the Company to obtain sufficient funds through operations or otherwise to repay its debt obligations, or to fund development and marketing of its products;
the ability of the Company to satisfy its trade obligations included in accounts payable and accrued expenses;
the incurrence by us of any unanticipated or unusual non-operating expenses, such as in connection with a proxy contest, which would require us to divert our cash resources from achieving our business plan;
the ability of the Company to predict or estimate its future quarterly or annual revenues and expenses given the developing and unpredictable market for its products;
the ability of the Company to retain key customers from whom a significant portion of its revenues is derived;
the ability of a key customer to reduce or delay purchasing products from the Company;
whether the actions of the former CEO of the Company which resulted in his separation from the Company in October 2011 or the Securities and Exchange Commission’s investigation would have a material adverse effect on the future financial results or condition of the Company; and
as a result of the slowdown in the economy and/or the tightening of the capital and credit markets, our customers may modify, delay or cancel plans to purchase our products or services, and suppliers may increase their prices, reduce their output or change their terms of sale.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Actual results or business conditions may differ materially from those projected or suggested in forward-looking statements as a result of various factors including, but not limited to, those described above and in the “Risk Factors” section of this Form 10-K. We cannot assure you that we have identified all the factors that create uncertainties. Moreover, new risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all risks on our business or the extent to which any risk, or combination of risks, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Form 10-K speaks only as of the date of this Form 10-K. Unless required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events after the date of this Form 10-K or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

USA TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

PART I

Item 1.1. Business.

OVERVIEW

USA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”, “We”, “USAT”“USAT”, or “Our”) was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in January 1992. We are a provider of technology-enabled solutions and value-added services that facilitate electronic payment transactions and value-added services primarily within the unattended Point of Sale (“POS”) market. We are a leading provider in the small ticket, beverage and food vending industry and are expanding our solutions and services to kiosk and other unattended market segments.segments, such as amusement, commercial laundry, kiosk and others. Since our founding, we have designed and marketed systems and solutions that facilitate electronic payment options, as well as telemetry and machine-to-machine (“M2M”) services, which include the ability to remotely monitor, control, and report on the results of distributed assets containing our electronic payment solutions. Historically, these distributed assets have relied on cash for payment in the form of coins or bills, whereas, our systems allow them to accept cashless payments such as through the use of credit or debit cards andor other emerging contactless forms, such as mobile payment.

We derive the majority of our revenues from license and transaction fees relatedresulting from connections to, as well as services provided by, our ePort Connect service. Connections to our service stem from the sale or lease of our POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software or the servicing of similar third-party installed POS terminals. The majority of ePort Connect customers pay a monthly fee plus a blended transaction rate on the transaction dollar volume processed by the Company. Customers with higher expected transaction rates might pay a lower or no ePort Connect monthly fee, but a higher blended transaction rate on dollar volume processed by the Company. Connections to the ePort Connect service, therefore, are the most significant driver of the Company’s revenues, particularly revenues from license and transaction fees.

As of June 30, 2012,2015, the Company had approximately 164,000333,000 connections to its ePort Connect service, double the number ofcompared to approximately 266,000 connections as of June 30, 2010.2014, representing a 25% increase. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012,2015, the Company processed approximately 103217 million cashless transactions totaling approximately $172$389 million in transaction dollars, representing a 43%28% increase in transaction volume and a 43%32% increase in dollars processed from the 72169 million cashless transactions totaling approximately $120$294 million during the previous fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

Our solutions and services have been designed to simplify the transition to cashless for traditionally cash-only based businesses. As such, they are turnkey and include our comprehensive ePort Connect service and POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software, which are able to process traditional magnetic stripe credit and debit cards, and contactless credit and debit cards. Our solution for near-field communication (“NFC”) equippedcards and mobile phones that allow consumers to make payments using their cell phones is currently in customer trials. Servicespayments. Standard services through ePort Connect are maintained on our proprietary operating systems and include deployment planning, merchant account setup on behalf of the customer, automatic processing and settlement, sales reporting and 24x7 customer support. In addition, the functionality of ourOther value-added services that customers can choose from include things such as cashless deployment planning, cashless performance review and loyalty products and services. Our solutions include thealso provide flexibility to execute a variety of payment applications on a single system, transaction security, connectivity options, compliance with certification standards, and centralized, accurate, real-time sales and inventory data to manage distributed assets (wireless telemetry and M2M). By December 31, 2012, we anticipate the commercial launch of other consumer engagement services such as loyalty and prepaid programs.

Our customers range from global food service organizations to small businesses that operate primarily consist ofin the following:self-serve, small ticket retail markets including beverage and food vending, machine ownersamusement and operators; brand marketers wishing to provide their products or servicesarcade machines, smartphones via kiosks or vending machines;our ePort Mobile™ solution, commercial laundry, operators servicing colleges, universitiestolls, and multi-family housing; andvarious other self-serve kiosk applications as well as equipment developers or manufacturers who incorporate our ePort Connect service into their product offerings.

The Company also manufactures and sells energy management products

We believe that reduce the electrical power consumption of equipment, such as refrigerated vending machines and glass front coolers, thus reducing the electrical energy costs associated with operating this equipment. We derive equipment revenues through the sale of our energy management products both in the United States and in approximately seven countries worldwide.

Wewe have a twenty-year history of being a market leader in cashless payments with a recognized brand name, valuea value-added proposition for our customers and a reputation of innovation in our product and services. We believe that the foregoing positionsthese attributes position us to capitalize on industry trends.

THE INDUSTRY

We operate primarily in the small ticket electronic payments industry and, more specifically, the unattended POS market. We also plan to offer customers with ancillary attended business segmentshave the ability to accept cashless payment “on the go” through mobile-based payment services, which are generally higher ticket transactions. Our solutions and services facilitate electronic payments in industries that have traditionally relied on cash transactions. We believe the following industry trends will driveare driving growth in demand for electronic payment systems in general and more specifically within the markets we serve:

 theOngoing shift toward electronic payment transactions and away from cash and checks;

 the increase in both consumer and merchant/operatorIncreasing demand for electronic transaction functionality;functionality from both consumers and merchant/operators; and

 improvingImproving POS technology and NFC equipped mobile phone payment technology.

Shift toward electronic payment transactions and away from cash and checks

There has been aan ongoing shift away from paper-based methods of payment, including cash and checks, towards electronic-based methods of payment. While consumers continue to use checks and cash to pay for goods and services, there is a migration towards the use of card-based payment to purchase items. According to The Nilson Report, a news and research publication on consumer payment systems, electronic payment transaction volume surpassed paper-based transaction volume for the first time in 2006, continuing the trend of migration of consumer transactions from paper-based to electronic payments. According to The Nilson Report, December 2011,2012, paper-based methods of payment continued to decline in 2010, representing 38.97% of transaction dollars measured compared to 50.45% in 2005. The four card-based systems—credit, debit, prepaid, and electronic benefits transfer—generated $3.81$4.22 trillion in the United States in 2010, or 48.12%,2011, 50.6% of transaction dollars measured, compared to 39.98%42.3% in 2005. Debit cards and prepaid cards showed the largest increase in transaction dollars over this five-year period. By 2015,2006. The Nilson Report projects that by 2016 spending at merchants on credit, debit and prepaid cards issued in the U.S., from the four card-based system will grow to $6.5 trillion, or 62.8% of total over $6 trillion, an increase of approximately 57% from 2010.

transaction dollars measured.

Increase in Consumer and Merchant/Operator Demand for Electronic Payments

Increase in Consumer Demand.The unattended, vending and kiosk POS market has historically been dominated by cash purchases. However, oftentimes, cash purchases at unattended POS locations represent a cumbersome transaction for the consumer because they do not have the correct monetary value (paper or coin), or the consumer does not have the ability to convert their bills into coins. We believe electronic payment system providers such as USA Technologies that can meet consumers’ demand within the unattended market will be able to offer retailers, card associations, card issuers and payment processors and business owners an expanding value proposition at the POS.

Increase in Merchant/Operator Demand. Increasingly,We believe that, increasingly, merchants and operators of unattended payment locations (e.g., vending machines, car wash,laundry, tabletop games, etc.) are utilizing electronic payment alternatives as a means to improve business results. The Company works with its customers to help them drive increased revenue of their distributed assets through this expanded market opportunity and many continue to see positive results.opportunity. In addition, electronic payment systems can provide merchants and operators real-time sales and inventory data utilized for back-office reporting and forecasting, like USA Technologies’ solutions and services, helping them to manage their business more efficiently.

Increase in Demand for Networked Assets. M2M (machine-to-machine) technology includes capturing value from wireless modules and electronic devices to improve business productivity and customer service. The term M2M describes any kind of 2-way communication system between geographically distributed devices through a centrally managed software application without human intervention. Asintervention and as such, the Company’s integrated POS and ePort Connect remote data management capabilities fall into this category of solution. Our M2M technology provides value to our customers. For example, the Company’s networked assets have the ability to remotely monitor merchandise and track inventory in real-time. In addition, networked assets can provide valuable information regarding consumers’ purchasing patterns and payment preferences, allowing operators to more effectively tailor their offerings to consumers. Market awareness of M2M applications is considered to be in its nascence. According to a Verizon Wireless 2011 whitepaper, (Whentitled “When Machines Talk, Businesses Listen)Listen”, within ten years, the number of machines that can be connected should exceed 60sixty billion units. The Company believes that its ability to provide machines capable of being networked,expertise in integrating cashless payments, its scalable network data capacity, experience withits proven ability to handle high transaction volume, and its high quality and reliable data management capabilities make it well suited for the growing opportunities in the M2M market. During Fiscal 2012, the Company engaged in a 10-city, M2M Connected Technology Tour with Verizon Wireless that featured USA Technologies as an M2M solution partner.

POS Technology and NFC Equipped Mobile Phone Payment Improvements

Increased

Consumer Interest in Mobile Payment. Goldman Sachs, in its June 19, 2012 Equity Research Report, explainsPayment.NFC, or Near Field Communication, is a short range wireless connectivity technology that the “base case” for mobile payment relies on near field communication (NFC), which allows for a secure, two-wayuses electromagnetic radio fields to enable communication between devices when there is a mobile phone and a POS. In this report, Goldman Sachs looks at howphysical touch, or when they are within close proximity to one another. We believe thatPOS contactless terminals that are enabled to accept NFC and mobile payments are projected to continue on an upward trajectory, with suggested growth in the value of mobile payments increasing to $617 billion by 2016 driven by nearly 448 million users. This same report cites that the value proposition for consumers will make purchasing faster and easier which potentially translates into increased purchasing and transactions. Mobile payment technologies, such as NFC-enabled POS terminals and digital wallet applications, such as ISIS, Google Wallet, Chase Wallet, Apple Pay, the recently introduced Android Pay, and others, stand to benefit from these evolving trends.trends in mobile payment. Digital wallet is essentially a digital service, accessed via the web or a mobile phone application that serves as a substitute for the traditional credit or debit card. Providers and consumers can also benefit from other ancillary offerings such asmarket directly to targeted consumers with coupons and loyalty programs.

With approximately one-halfover 70% of the Company’s connections NFC-enabledcontactless enabled to accept NFC payments (in addition to magnetic stripe cards) as of June 30, 2012,2015, we believe that we are well-positioned to benefit from this emerging space.

OUR TECHNOLOGY-BASED SOLUTION

Our solutions have been designed to be turnkey and includeincludes the ePort Connect service, and POS electronic payment devices, or certified payment software able to process traditional magnetic stripe credit and debit cards, contactless credit and debit cards, as well asand NFC equipped mobile phones that allowsallow consumers to make payments with their cell phones. We believe that our ability to bundle our products and services, as well as the ability to tailor and customize them to individual customer needs, makes it easy and efficient for our customers to adopt and deploy our technology, and results in a service unmatched in the small-ticket, unattended retail market today.

The Company counts its ePort Connect connections upon shipment of an active terminal to a customer under contract, at which time activation on its network is performed by the Company, and the terminal is capable of conducting business via the Company’s network and related services. An ePort Connect connection does not necessarily mean that the unit is actually installed by the customer on a machine, or that the unit has begun processing transactions, or that the Company has begun receiving monthly service fees in connection with the unit. Rather, at the time of shipment of the ePort, the customer becomes obligated to pay the one-time activation fee (if applicable), and is obligated to pay monthly service fees and lease payments (if applicable) in accordance with the terms of the customer’s contract with the Company.

Our Company offers energy conservation products (“Energy Misers”®) that reduce the electrical power consumption of various types of existing equipment, such as vending machines, glass front coolers and other “always-on” appliances by allowing the equipment to selectively operate in a power saving mode when the full power mode is not necessary. Each of the Company’s Energy Miser® products utilizes occupancy sensing technology to determine when the surrounding area is vacant or occupied. The Energy Miser® then utilizes occupancy data, product temperatures, and an energy saving algorithm to selectively control certain high-energy components (e.g., compressor and fan) to realize electrical power savings over the long-term use of the equipment. Customers of our VendingMiser® product benefit from reduced energy consumption costs, depending on regional energy costs, machine type, and utilization of the machine. Our Energy Misers® also reduce the overall stress loads on the equipment, helping to reduce associated maintenance costs. Energy Miser products are not currently networked to our ePort Connect service.

SPECIFIC MARKETS WE SERVE

Our current customers are primarily in the self-serve, small ticket retail markets including beverage and food vending and kiosk, commercial laundry, car wash, tolls, amusement and gaming, and office coffee. While these industry sectors represent only a small fraction of our total market potential, as described below, these are the areas where we have gained the most traction.traction to date. In addition to being our current primary markets, we believe these sectors serve as a proof-of-concept for other unattended POS industry applications.

Vending.According to Vending Times’ 20112012 Census of the Industry, annual U.S. sales in the vending industry sector were estimated to be approximately $42 billion.$43 billion in 2011 transacted by over 6 million machines. The Company believes these revenues are transacted over millions of terminals representingmachines represent a significant market opportunity for electronic payment conversion when compared to the Company’s existing ePort Connect service base. Inbase and the overall low rate of industry adoption to date. For example, in another study conducted by Automatic Merchandiser (State of the Vending Industry, June/July 2012)June 2013) that included a representative 5.4 million locations,machines, cashless adoption was estimated to beprojected at only 3.7%7% in 2011, increasing2012, up from 3.5% the prior year as setbacks posed by the Durbin amendment (see Risk Factors) were offset by operators’ need for a mechanism to support rising retail prices, competitive pressure and a stronger understanding by operators of the benefits that cashless provides. According to the Automatic Merchandiser Report, the decline in revenues experienced by the vending market segment over the last few years as a result of price increases and fewer serviceable locations began to slow4% in 2011. AtThe increase was attributed to higher product price points, increased acceptance of debit and credit in retail for smaller purchases, Gen X and Y/millennials joining the same time, their report noted a concurrent uptick in use of technology, as more operators recognized that such services as DEX-based management, remote machine monitoringworkforce to become vending consumers and the growing research about how cashless transaction capabilitypayment systems can improve sales and profitability.increase sales. With the continued shift to electronic payments and the advancement in mobile and POS technology, we believe that the traditional beverage and food vending industry will continue to look to cashless payments and telemetry systems to increase sales and margins and help growth.

Kiosk. According to IHL Consulting GroupGroup’s August 2012 North American Self-Service Kiosks Market Study, dated July 1, 2010,which defines, for purposes of their study, a kiosk as a self-standing, technology-based, unmanned device deployed across six retail and hospitality environments, approximately $678$926 billion was going to be transacted through self-service kiosks in 2009, which represents an increase2013, with compound annual growth for the subsequent three years of 9.7% from the previous year. Furthermore, IHL projectsseven percent (7%). We believe that spending at self-service kiosks will grow approximately 10% during 2010 and that demand for self-service kiosks should push sales at these terminals to over $1 trillion by 2014. Kiosks are becoming increasingly popular as self-service “specialty” shops within larger retail environments as credit, debit or contactless payment options enable kiosks to sell an increased variety of items and at a higher price point as compared to cash-only kiosks that limit consumersitems. In addition, the study points to the amountincreasing trend toward self-sufficiency, where time is the most important commodity of available cash-on-hand.the consumer.

In the electronicvending space including manufacturers who may include in their new vending machines their own (or another third party’s) cashless payment market there are a wide variety of companies that develop hardwaresystems and software solutions for our addressable market. While several of theservices. These major competitors below have formed partnerships in an attempt to offer customers an end-to-end solution, we are not aware of any direct competitor that provides a complete end-to-end solution like ours. We are aware of at least five competitors that offer a cashless hardware device:include Crane Payment Systems, MEI, Coin Acceptors Inc. (Coinco),Innovations and Cantaloupe Systems, Inc.Inc.. While we believe our products and services are superior to our competitors’, many of our competitors are much larger enterprises and Vend Screen. We are aware of four competitors that offer a remote monitoring device: MEI, Cantaloupe Systems, Inc., InOne Technology, LLC, and Crane Streamware. We are aware of several competitors that offer a wireless service for cashless processing: Apriva, Cantaloupe Systems, and InOne Technology/CoinCo.have substantially greater revenues. In addition the National Automatic Merchandising Association (“NAMA”), an association serving the vending, coffee service and food service management industries, offers a program through Bank of America Merchant Services. Thereto these competitors, there are also numerous credit card processors that offer card processing services to traditional retail establishments that could decide to offer similar services to the industries that we serve.

In the cashless laundry market, we are aware ofour joint solution with Setomatic Systems competes with hardware manufacturers, who provide joint solutions to their customers in partnership with payment processors, and with at least one direct competitor Mac-Gray Corporation. In the energy management market, while we are aware of one direct competitor for our Energy Miser products in the United States; competition is growing as more energy efficient products enter the market. The businesses which have developed unattended, credit card activated control systems currently in use in non-vending machine applications (e.g., gasoline dispensing, public telephones, prepaid telephone cards,who provides an integrated hardware and ticket dispensing machines), might be capable of developing products or utilizing their existing products in direct competition with our ePort® control systems targeted to the vending industry. Finally, the production of highly efficient vending machines and glass front coolers or alternative energy conservation products may reduce or replace the need for our energy management products.

The Company’s key competitive strengths are described in detail above, under the heading “OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS.

Item 1A.1A. Risk Factors.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We have a history of losses since inception and if we continue to incur losses, the price of our shares can be expected to fall.

We have experienced losses since inception. Althoughfrom inception through June 30, 2012, with net income for the Company anticipates nearing profitability duringyears ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014. However, we experienced losses for the 20132015 fiscal year, and continued profitability is not assured. From our inception through June 30, 2012,2015, our cumulative losses from operations are approximately $199$172 million. Until the Company’s products and services can generate sufficient annual revenues, the Company will be required to use its cash and cash equivalents on hand, its line of credit, and may raise capital to meet its cash flow requirements including the issuance of Common Stock or debt financing. For our fiscal yearsthe year ended June 30, 2012, 2011,2015 and 2010,2014, we have incurred a net lossesloss of $5,211,238, $6,457,067,$1,089,482 and $11,571,495, respectively due primarily to the fact that our revenues have not been sufficient to sustain our operations.earned a net income of $27,530,652 which includes a benefit for income taxes of $27,255,398, respectively. If we continue to incur losses in the future, the price of our common stock can be expected to fall.

The occurrence of unusual or unanticipated non-operational expenses may require us to divert our cash resources from achieving our business plan, adversely affecting our financial performance and resulting in the decline of our stock price.

Our fiscal year 2016 business plan assumes that no material unusual or unanticipated non-operational expenses would be incurred by us. In the event we would incur any such expenses, we would anticipate diverting our cash resources from our JumpStart program in order to fund any such expenses. Any such occurrence may cause our anticipated connections, revenues, gross profits, adjusted EBITDA, and other financial metrics for the 2016 fiscal year and beyond to be materially adversely affected. In such event, the price of our common stock could be expected to fall.

The inability of our customers to utilize third party leasing companies under our QuickStart program would materially adversely affect our cash generated from operating activities and/or attaining our business plan.

The use of third party leasing companies by our customers under our QuickStart program positively affects our net cash provided by operating activities because we receive the purchase price from the leasing company at the time of the sale. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such third party leasing companies. To the extent that third party leasing companies would not be available, we would lease the equipment directly to our customers. In such event, our net cash from operating activities would be adversely affected and we may be required to incur additional equity or debt financing to fund operations. In the alternative, we would not be able to attain our business plan, including anticipated connections and revenues.

We may require additional financing or find it necessary to raise capital to sustain our operations and without it we may not be able to continue operations.

achieve our business plan.

At June 30, 2012,2015, we had net working capital of $2,197,851.$6,293,137. We had annet cash provided by operating cash flowactivities of $78,236, ($908,227)$(1,697,742), $7,085,400, and ($9,841,900),$6,038,952 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011,2015, 2014, and 2010, respectively, reflecting a reclassification of cash used2013, respectively. Although we believe that we have adequate existing resources (used in) to provide for acquisition of property for the JumpStart Program. We may not currently have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations afterfunding requirements through at least July 1, 2013. Therefore,2016, there can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to generate sufficient funds thereafter. Unless we maintain or grow our current level of operations, we may need additional funds to continue these operations. We may also need additional capital to update our technology or respond to unusual or unanticipated non-operational events. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, the consequences could be a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

Our existence is dependentfuture operating results may fluctuate.

Our future operating results will depend significantly on our ability to raise capital that may not be available.

There can be no assurance that our business will prove financially profitable or generate sufficient revenues to cover our expenses. From inception, we have generated funds primarily through the sale of securities. Although we believe that we have adequate existing resources to provide for our funding requirements through at least July 1, 2013, there can be no assurances that we will be able to continue to generate sufficient funds thereafter. We would expect to raise funds in the future through sales of our debt or equity securities until such time, if ever, as we are able to operate profitably. Subsequent to July 1, 2013, our inability to obtain needed funding can be expected to have a material adverse effect on our operationsdrive revenues from license and transaction fees and our ability to achieve profitability. If we fail to generate increased revenues or fail to sell additional securities, youdevelop and commercialize new products and services. Our operating results may lose all or a substantial portion of your investment.
fluctuate based upon many factors, including:

fluctuations in revenue generated by our business;

fluctuations in operating expenses;

our ability to establish or maintain effective relationships with significant partners and suppliers on acceptable terms;

the amount of debit or credit card interchange rates that are charged by Visa and MasterCard;

the fees that we charge our customers for processing services;

the successful operation of our network;

the commercial success of our customers, which could be affected by such factors as general economic conditions;

the level of product and price competition;

the timing and cost of, and our ability to develop and successfully commercialize, new or enhanced products and services;

activities of, and acquisitions or announcements by, competitors;

the impact from any impairment of inventory, goodwill, fixed assets or intangibles;

the ability to increase the number of customer connections to our network;

marketing programs which delay realization by us of monthly service fees on our new connections;

the material breach of security of any of the Company’s systems or third party systems utilized by the Company; and

the anticipation of and response to technological changes.

Our products may fail to gain widespreadsubstantial increased market acceptance. As a result, we may not generate sufficient revenues or profit margins to become successful.

achieve our financial objectives or growth plans.

There can be no assurances that demand for our products will be sufficient to enable us to generate sufficient revenue or become profitable.profitable on a sustainable basis. Likewise, no assurance can be given that we will be able to have a sufficient number of ePorts® connected to our network or sell or lease equipment utilizing our network or our energy management products to enough locations to achieve significant revenues or that our operations can be conducted profitably.revenues. Alternatively, the locations which would utilize the network may not be successful locations and our revenues would be adversely affected. We may in the future lose locations utilizing our products to competitors, or may not be able to install our products at competitors’ locations, or may not obtain future locations which would be obtained by our competitors. In addition, there can be no assurance that our products could evolve or be improved to meet the future needs of the marketplace. In any such event we may not be able to achieve our growth plans, including anticipated connections and revenue growth.

12

We may be required to incur further debt to meet future capital requirements of our business. Should we be required to incur additional debt, the restrictions imposed by the terms of such debt could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to respond to changes in our business.

If we incur additional debt, we may be subject to the following risks:

 our vulnerability to adverse economic conditions and competitive pressures may be heightened;

 our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry may be limited;

 our debt covenants may affect our flexibility in planning for, and reacting to, changes in the economy and in our industry;

 a high level of debt may place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that are less leveraged and therefore, may be able to take advantage of opportunities that our indebtedness would prevent us from pursuing;

 the covenants contained in the agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness may limit our ability to borrow additional funds, dispose of assets pay dividends and make certain investments;

14


 a significant portion of our cash flows could be used to service our indebtedness;

 we may be sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates if any of our debt obligations are subject to variable interest rates; and

 our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate purposes or other purposes may be impaired.

We cannot assure you that our leverage and such restrictions will not materially and adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities. In addition, we cannot assure you that additional financing will be available when required or, if available, will be on terms satisfactory to us.

Current conditions in the global financial markets and the distressed economy may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and ability to raise capital.
Our business and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by the continued adverse conditions in the financial markets and the economy generally. Declining business and consumer confidence and the risks of increased or continued unemployment, have precipitated an economic slowdown and ongoing recession. These events and the continuing market upheavals may have an adverse effect on us, our suppliers and our customers. The demand for our products could be adversely affected in an economic downturn and our revenues may decline under such circumstances.
We have historically relied on the equity markets for funding our business by issuing equity securities. We may find it difficult, or we may not be able, to access the credit or equity markets, or we may experience higher funding costs as a result of the current adverse market conditions. Continued instability in these markets may limit our ability to access the capital we may require to fund and grow our business.

The loss of one or more of our key customers could significantly reduce our revenues, results of operations, and profits.

net income.

We have derived, and believe we may continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from one large customer or a limited number of large customers. Approximately 46% and 22% of the Company’s accounts and finance receivables at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were concentrated with two and one customer(s), respectively. Approximately 43%, 48%, and 52% of the Company’s license and transaction processing revenuesCustomer concentrations for the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011,2015, 2014 and 2010, respectively, were concentrated with two customers: 25%, 23%, and 17%, respectively, with one; and 18%, 25%, and 35%, respectively, with another. There was no concentration of equipment sales revenue for the year ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. For the year ended June 30, 2010 approximately 11% of the Company’s equipment sales revenue was concentrated with one customer. The Company’s customers2013 are principally located in the United States.

as follows:

  2015  2014  2013 
          
Trade accounts and finance receivables- one customer  35%  22%  41%
License and transaction processing revenues- two customers:            
First customer  21%  26%  26%
Second customer  (1)  (1)  11%
Equipment sales revenue- one customer  17%  (1)  (1)
(1) Less than 10%            

Our customers may buy less of our products or services depending on their own technological developments, end-user demand for our products and internal budget cycles. A major customer in one year may not purchase any of our products or services in another year, which may negatively affect our financial performance. If any of our large customers significantly reduce or delay purchases from us or if we are required to sell products to themany of our large customers at reduced prices or unfavorable terms, our results of operations and revenue could be materially adversely affected.

Further, there is no assurance that our customers will continue to utilize our transaction processing and related services as our customer agreements are generally cancelable by the customer on thirty to sixty days’ notice.

We depend on our key personnel and if they would leave us, our business could be adversely affected.

affected.

We are dependent on key management personnel, particularly the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Stephen P. Herbert.Herbert and our Chief Services Officer, David DeMedio. The loss of services of Mr. Herbert or Mr. DeMedio or other executive officers wouldcould dramatically affect our business prospects. CertainOur executive officers and certain of our officers and employees are particularly valuable to us because:

 they have specialized knowledge about our company and operations;

 they have specialized skills that are important to our operations; or

 they would be particularly difficult to replace.

We have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Herbert that expires on January 1, 2013. We have also entered into an employment agreement2016 and with another executive officer,Mr. DeMedio which expires on June 30, 2016, each of which contains confidentiality and non-compete agreements. We have obtained a key person life insurance policy in the amount of $1,000,000 on Mr. Herbert. We do not have and do not intend to obtain key person life insurance coverage on our other executive officer. As a result, we are exposed to the costs associated with the death of this key employee.

We also may be unable to retain other existing senior management, sales personnel, and development and engineering personnel critical to our ability to execute our business plan, which could result in harm to key customer relationships, loss of key information, expertise or know-how and unanticipated recruitment and training costs.


15


Our dependence on proprietary technology and limited ability to protect our intellectual property may adversely affect our ability to compete.

Challenge to our ownership of our intellectual property could materially damage our business prospects. Our technology may infringe upon the proprietary rights of others. Our ability to execute our business plan is dependent, in part, on our ability to obtain patent protection for our proprietary products, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others.

Through June 30, 2012,2015, we had 1012 pending United States and foreign patent applications, and intend to filewill consider filing applications for additional patents covering aspects of our future products,developments, although there can be no assurance that we will do so. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will maintain or prosecute these applications. The United States Government and other countries have granted us 8489 patents as of June 30, 2012.2015. There can be no assurance that:

 any of the remaining patent applications will be granted to us;

13

 we will develop additional products that are patentable or do not infringe the patents of others;

 any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitive advantages or adequate protection for our products;

 any patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by others; or

 any of our products would not infringe the patents of others.

If any of theour products areor services is found to have infringed any patent, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain licenses to continue to manufacture, use, sell, and license such product or service or that we will not have to pay damages and/or be enjoined as a result of such infringement. Even if a patent application is granted for any of our products, there can be no assurance that the patented technology will be a commercial success or result in any profits to us.

If we are unable to adequately protect our proprietary technology or fail to enforce or prosecute our patents against others, third parties may be able to compete more effectively against us, which could result in the loss of customers and our business being adversely affected. Patent and proprietary rights litigation entails substantial legal and other costs, and diverts Company resources as well as the attention of our management. There can be no assurance we will have the necessary financial resources to appropriately defend or prosecute our intellectual property rights in connection with any such litigation.

Competition from others could prevent the Company from increasing revenue and achieving profitability.

its growth plans.

While we are a leading provider and believe we have the largest installed base of unattended POS electronic payment systems in the small ticket, beverage and food vending industry, our competitors are increasingly and actively marketing products and services that compete with our products and services in this vending space. The competition includes manufacturers who may include in their new vending machines their own (or another third party’s) cashless payment systems and services other than our systems and services. While we believe our products and services are superior to our competitors, many of our competitors are much larger enterprises and have substantially greater revenues. In addition to these competitors, there are also numerous credit card processors that offer card processing services to traditional retail establishments that could decide to offer similar services to the industries that we serve. Competition from other companies, including those that are well established and have substantially greater resources, may reduce our profitability or reduce our business opportunities. Many of our competitors have established reputations for success in the development, sale and service of high quality products. We face competition from the following groups:

companies offering automated, credit card activated control systems in connection with facsimile machines, personal computers, debit card purchase/revalue stations, vending machines, and use of the Internet and e-mail which directly compete with our products;
companies which have developed unattended, credit card activated control systems currently used in connection with public telephones, prepaid telephone cards, gasoline dispensing machines, or vending machines and are capable of developing control systems in direct competition with the Company; and,
one direct competitor, Elstat Electronics Ltd. in the energy management industry.
In addition, it is also possible that a company not currently engaged in any of the businesses described above could develop services and products that compete with our services and products. Competition may result in lower profit margins on our products or may reduce potential profits or result in a loss of some or all of our customer base. To the extent that our competitors are able to offer more attractive technology, our ability to compete could be adversely affected. In addition, NAMA, an industry association  serving the vending, coffee service and foodservice management industries, offers a program for its members that competes with our cashless solutions through Bank of America Merchant Services.

The termination of any of our relationships with third parties upon whom we rely for supplies and services that are critical to our products could adversely affect our business and delay achievement of our business plan.

We depend on arrangements with third parties for a variety of component parts used in our products. We have contracted with various suppliers to assist us to develop and manufacture our ePort® products and with various suppliers to manufacture our Energy Miser®products. For other components, we do not have supply contracts with any of our third-party suppliers and we purchase components as needed from time to time. We have contracted with DBSia third-party data system recovery vendor to host our network in a secure, 24/7 environment to ensure the reliability of our network services. We also have contracted with multiple land-based telecommunications providers to ensure the reliability of our land-based network. If these business relationships are terminated, the implementation of our business plan may be delayed until an alternative supplier or service provider can be retained. If we are unable to find another source or one that is comparable, the content and quality of our products could suffer and our business, operating results and financial condition could be harmed.

16

A disruption in the manufacturing capabilities of our third-party manufacturers, suppliers or distributors would negatively impact our ability to meet customer requirements.

We depend upon third-party manufacturers, suppliers and distributors to deliver components free from defects, competitive in functionality and cost, and in compliance with our specifications and delivery schedules. Since we generally do not maintain large inventories of our products or components, any termination of, or significant disruption in, our manufacturing capability or our relationship with our third-party manufacturers or suppliers may prevent us from filling customer orders in a timely manner.

We have occasionally experienced, and may in the future experience, delays in delivery of products and delivery of products of inferior quality from third-party manufacturers. Although alternate manufacturers and suppliers are generally available to produce our products and product components, the number of manufacturers or suppliers of some of our products and components is limited, and a qualified replacement manufacturer or supplier could take several months. In addition, our use of third-party manufacturers reduces our direct control over product quality, manufacturing timing, yields and costs. Disruption of the manufacture or supply of our products and components, or a third-party manufacturer’s or supplier’s failure to remain competitive in functionality, quality or price, could delay or interrupt our ability to manufacture or deliver our products to customers on a timely basis, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial performance.

Substantially all of the network service contracts with our customers are terminable for any or no reason upon thirty to sixty days’ advance notice.

Substantially all of our customers may terminate their network service contracts with us for any or no reason upon providing us with thirty or sixty-days’sixty days’ advance notice. Accordingly, consistent demand for and satisfaction with our products by our customers is critical to our financial condition and future success. Problems, defects, or dissatisfaction with our products or services or competition in the marketplace could cause us to lose a substantial number of our customers with minimal notice. If a substantial number of our customers were to exercise their termination rights, it would result in a material adverse effect to our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our reliance on our wireless telecommunication service provider exposes us to a number of risks over which we have no control, including risks with respect to increased prices and termination of essential services.

The operation of our wirelesslywireless networked devices depends upon the capacity, reliability and security of services provided to us by our wireless telecommunication services providers, AT&T Mobility and Verizon Wireless. We have no control over the operation, quality or maintenance of these services or whether the vendor will improve its services or continue to provide services that are essential to our business. In addition, subject to our existing contracts with them, our wireless telecommunication services providers may increase their prices, which would increase our costs. If our wireless telecommunication services providers were to cease to provide essential services or to significantly increase prices, we could be required to find alternative vendors for these services. With a limited number of vendors, we could experience significant delays in obtaining new or replacement services, which could lead to slowdowns or failures of our network. In addition, we may have to replace our existing ePort® devices that are already installed in the marketplace and which are utilizing the existing vendor’s services. This could significantly harm our reputation and could cause us to lose customers and revenues.

Our products may contain defects that may be difficult or even impossible to correct, which could result in lost sales, additional costs and customer erosion.
We offer technically complex products which, when first introduced or released in new versions, may contain software or hardware defects that are difficult to detect and correct. The existence of defects and delays in correcting them could result in negative consequences, including the following:

 14delays in shipping products;
cancellation of orders;

●             additional warranty expense;
delays in the collection of receivables;
product returns;
the loss of market acceptance of our products;
diversion of research and development resources from new product development; and
inventory write-downs.
Even though we test all of our products, defects may continue to be identified after products are shipped. In past periods, we have experienced various issues in connection with product launches, including the need to rework certain products and stabilize product designs. Correcting defects can be a time-consuming and difficult task. Software errors may take several months to correct, and hardware errors may take even longer.
17

We may accumulate excess or obsolete inventory that could result in unanticipated price reductions and write downs and adversely affect our financial results.

Managing the proper inventory levels for components and finished products is challenging. In formulating our product offerings, we have focused our efforts on providing products with greater capability and functionality, which requires us to develop and incorporate the most current technologies in our products. This approach tends to increase the risk of obsolescence for products and components we hold in inventory and may compound the difficulties posed by other factors that affect our inventory levels, including the following:

 
the need to maintain significant inventory of components that are in limited supply;

 
buying components in bulk for the best pricing;

 
responding to the unpredictable demand for products;

 
responding to customer requests for short lead-time delivery schedules;
and

 
failure of customers to take delivery of ordered products; and
products.
product returns.

If we accumulate excess or obsolete inventory, price reductions and inventory write-downs may result, which could adversely affect our results of operation and financial condition.

We may not be able to adapt to changing technology and our customers’ technology needs.

We face rapidly changing technology and frequent new service offerings by competitors that can render existing services obsolete or unmarketable. Our future depends, in part, on our ability to enhance existing services and to develop, introduce and market, on a timely and cost effective basis, new services that keep pace with technological developments and customer requirements. Developing new products and technologies is a complex, uncertain process requiring innovation and accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. When changes to the product line are announced, we will be challenged to manage possible shortened life cycles for existing products and continue to sell existing products and prevent customers from returning existing products. Our inability to respond effectively to any of these challenges may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial success.

Security is vital to our customers and therefore breaches in the security of transactions involving our products or services could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations.

Protection against fraud is of key importance to purchasers and end-users of our products. We incorporate security features, such as encryption software and secure hardware, into our products to protect against fraud in electronic payment transactions and to ensure the privacy and integrity of consumer data. We design and test our products to highindustry security standards and our products and methodologies are under constantperiodic review and improvement. improvement. We also maintain the highest level PCI validation standard as mandated by the card industry and engage third party auditors not only to ensure that we meet the highest industry standards, but also to advise us on improving our security methods. Nevertheless, our products and services and third party products and services that are utilized by us may be vulnerable to breaches in security due to defects in our security mechanisms, the operating system and applications in our hardware platform. Security vulnerabilities could jeopardize the security of information transmitted or stored using our products. In general, liability associated with security breaches of a certified electronic payment system belongs to the institution that acquires the financial transaction. In addition, we have not experienced any material security breaches affecting our business. However, if theThe security of the information in our products is compromised, our reputation and marketplace acceptance of our products will be adversely affected, which would adversely affect our results of operations, and subject us to potential liability. If our security applications are breached and sensitive data is lost or stolen, we could incur significant costs to not only assess and repair any damage to our systems, but also to reimburse customers for losses that occur from the fraudulent use of the data. We may also be subject to fines and penalties from the credit card associations in the event of the loss of confidential card information. Adverse publicity raising concerns about the safety or privacy of electronic transactions, or widely reported breaches of our or another provider’s security, have the potential to undermine consumer confidence in the technology and could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

Our products and services may be vulnerable to security breach.

Credit card issuers have promulgated credit card security guidelines as part of their ongoing efforts to battle identity theft and credit card fraud. We continue to work with credit card issuers to assure that our products and services comply with these rules. There can be no assurances, however, that our products and services or third party products and services utilized by us are invulnerable to unauthorized access or hacking. When there is unauthorized access to credit card data that results in financial loss, there is the potential that parties could seek damages from us.

us, and our business reputation may be materially adversely affected.

If we fail to adhere to the standards of the Visa and MasterCard credit card associations, our registrations with these associations could be terminated and we could be required to stop providing payment processing services for Visa and MasterCard.

Substantially all of the transactions handled by our network involve Visa or MasterCard. If we fail to comply with the applicable requirements of the Visa and MasterCard credit card associations, Visa or MasterCard could suspend or terminate our registration with them. The termination of our registration with them or any changes in the Visa or MasterCard rules that would impair our registration with them could require us to stop providing payment processing services through our network.

In such event, our business plan and/or competitive advantages in the market place could be materially adversely affected.

We rely on other card payment processors and service providers;processors; if they fail or no longer agree to provide their services, our customer relationships could be adversely affected and we could lose business.

We rely on agreements with other large payment processing organizations, primarily Elavon, Inc. (“Elavon”),Chase Paymentech, to enable us to provide card authorization, data capture, settlement and merchant accounting services and access to various reporting tools for the customers we serve. Many of these organizations and service providers are our competitors and our agreements are subject to termination by them.

The termination by our servicecard processing providers of their arrangements with us or their failure to perform their services efficiently and effectively may adversely affect our relationships with the customers whose accounts we serve and may cause those customers to terminate their processing agreements with us.

We are subject to laws and regulations that affect the products, services and markets in which we operate. Failure by us to comply with these laws or regulations would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

We are, among other things, subject to banking regulations and credit card association regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations may result in the suspension or revocation of our business, the limitation, suspension or termination of service, and/or the imposition of fines that could have an adverse effect on our financial condition. Additionally, changes to legal rules and regulations, or interpretation or enforcement thereof, could have a negative financial effect on us or our product offerings. The payment processing industry may become subject to regulation as a result of recent data security breaches that have exposed consumer data to potential fraud. To the extent this occurs, we could be subject to additional technical, contractual or other requirements as a condition of our continuing to conduct our payment processing business. These requirements could cause us to incur additional costs, which could be significant, or to lose revenues to the extent we do not comply with these requirements.

New legislation could be enacted regulating the basis upon which interchange rates are charged for debit or credit card transactions, which could increase the debit or credit card interchange fees charged by bankcard networks. An example of such legislation is the so-called “Durbin Amendment,” to the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The Durbin Amendment regulates the basis upon which interchange rates for debit card transactions are made to ensure that interchange rates are “reasonable and proportionate to costs.” Pursuant to regulations that were promulgated by the Federal Reserve, Visa and MasterCard have significantly increased their interchange fees for small ticket debit card transactions. On October 12, 2011, the Company and Visa

As of November 14, 2014, we entered into a one-yearthree-year agreement (the “Visa Agreement”with Visa U.S.A. Inc. (“Visa”), pursuant to which Visa has agreed to continue to make available to the Company reduced interchange fees for debit card transactions. Thecertain promotional interchange reimbursement fees madefor small ticket debit and credit card transactions. Similarly, MasterCard International Incorporated ("MasterCard") has agreed to make available to the Company will allow the Companyus reduced interchange rates for small ticket debit card transactions pursuant to continue to accept Visa’s debit products over the one-year term without adversely impacting the Company’s historical gross profit from license and transaction fee revenues.a three-year MasterCard Acceptance Agreement dated January 12, 2015, as amended by a First Amendment thereto dated April 27, 2015. If the foregoing agreements with Visa Agreement isand MasterCard are not renewed,extended, our financial results would be materially adversely affected unless we are able to pass these significant additional charges to our customers. Although management believes that the agreement will be renewed there can be no assurance thereof.

Increases in card association and debit network interchange fees could increase our operating costs or otherwise adversely affect our operations. If we do not pass along to our customers any future increases in credit or debit card interchange fees, assessments and transaction fees, our gross profits would be reduced.

We are obligated to pay interchange fees and other network fees set by the bankcard networks to the card issuing bank and the bankcard networks for each transaction we process through our network. From time to time, card associations and debit networks increase the organization and/or processing fees, known as interchange fees that they charge. Under our processing agreements with our customers, we are permitted to pass along these fee increases to our customers through corresponding increases in our processing fees. Passing along such increases could result in some of our customers canceling their contracts with us. Consequently, it is possible that competitive pressures will result in our Company absorbing some or all of the increases in the future, which would increase our operating costs, reduce our gross profit and adversely affect our business.

While the Company and Visa have entered into a one-year agreement pursuant to which Visa has agreed to make available to the Company reduced interchange fees for debit card transactions, MasterCard has, since October 1, 2011, increased its interchange fees for small ticket category transactions paid for through debit cards issued by regulated banks from 1.55% of a transaction plus 4 cents, to 0.5% of a transaction plus 22 cents, which represents an increase of approximately 247% based on a transaction of $1.67, which was the average transaction experienced by the Company during fiscal year 2012.

During the term of the Visa Agreement, the Company does not anticipate accepting any debit cards with interchange fees that are higher than the rates provided under the Visa Agreement. The Company will continue to accept Visa- and MasterCard- branded debit and pre-paid cards in addition to all major credit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express at its current processing rates. If the Visa Agreement isor MasterCard Agreements are not renewed,extended, our financial results would be materially adversely affected unless we are able to pass these significant additional charges to our customers. Although management believes

The ability to recruit, retain and develop qualified personnel is critical to the Company’s success and growth.

For the Company to successfully compete and grow, it must retain, recruit and develop the necessary personnel who can provide the needed expertise required in its business. In addition, the Company must develop its personnel to provide succession plans capable of maintaining continuity in the midst of the inevitable unpredictability of human capital. However, the market for qualified personnel is competitive and the Company may not succeed in recruiting additional personnel or may fail to effectively replace current personnel who depart with qualified or effective successors. The Company’s effort to retain and develop personnel may also result in significant additional expenses. The Company cannot assure that the agreementkey personnel, including executive officers, will continue to be employed or that it will be renewed there can be no assurance thereof.

The future occurrence of unusual or unanticipated non-operational expenses may require usable to divert our cash resources from achieving our business plan, adversely affecting our financial performanceattract and resultingretain qualified personnel in the decline of our stock price.

Our fiscal year 2013 business plan assumes that no material unusualfuture. Failure to retain or unanticipated non-operational expenses would be incurred by us. In the event we would incur any such expenses, we would anticipate diverting our cash resources from our JumpStart program in order to fund any such expenses. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, we anticipate utilizing substantial cash resources in connection with the JumpStart program. Any such reduction may cause our anticipated connections, revenues, gross profits, Adjusted EBITDA, and other financial metrics for the 2013 fiscal year and beyond to be materially adversely affected. In such event, the price of our common stock could be expected to fall.

During our fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, we incurred approximately $2.2 million in connection with the proxy contest and related litigation and $975,000 in connection with the Audit Committee’s investigation and resignation of our former CEO. Our business plan for the 2013 fiscal year does not anticipate that any such similar events, including another proxy contest, would occur during the fiscal year. The occurrence of any such eventattract key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance and share price.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore investors should not anticipate cash dividends on their investment.

The holders of our common stock and series A convertible preferred stock are entitled to receive dividends when, and if, declared by our board of directors. Our board of directors does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain any and all earnings to finance the growth of the business. To date, we have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock or our series A convertible preferred stock and there can be no assurance that cash dividends will ever be paid on our common stock.

In addition, our articles of incorporation prohibit the declaration of any dividends on our common stock unless and until all unpaid and accumulated dividends on the series A convertible preferred stock have been declared and paid. Through August 31, 2011,September 15, 2015, the unpaid and cumulative dividends on the series A convertible preferred stock are $10,599,646. Each$13,257,454. As of June 30, 2015, each share of series A convertible preferred stock iswas convertible into 1/100th0.1940 of a share of common stock at the option of the holder.holder and is subject to further adjustment as provided in our Articles of Incorporation. The unpaid and cumulative dividends on the series A convertible preferred stock are convertible into shares of our common stock at the rate of $1,000 per share at the option of the holder. During the year ended June 30, 2012,2015, none of our series A convertible preferred stock and no cumulative preferred dividends were converted into shares of common stock.

Our articles of incorporation also provide that the preferred stock has a liquidation preference over the common stock in the amount of $10 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. As of June 30, 2012,2015, the liquidation preference was $15,361,522.

$17,354,908.

Upon certain fundamental transactions involving the Company, such as a merger or sale of substantially all of our assets, we may be required to distribute the liquidation preference then due to the holders of our series A preferred stock as well as cash payments to certain of our warrant holders which would reduce the amount of the distributions otherwise to be made to the holders of our common stock in connection with such transactions.

Our articles of incorporation provide that upon a merger or sale of substantially all of our assets or upon the disposition of more than 50% of our voting power, the holders of at least 60% of the preferred stock may elect to have such transaction treated as a liquidation and be entitled to receive their liquidation preference. Upon our liquidation, the holders of our preferred stock are entitled to receive a liquidation preference prior to any distribution to the holders of common stock which as of June 30, 2015 is equal to $17,354,908.

The terms of the warrants that were issued in March 2011 to acquire up to 3,900,000 shares of common stock at $2.6058 per share which expire in September 2016 provide that upon a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the warrant) the holder shall have the right to have the warrant purchased by the Company for cash at its Black Scholes Value (as defined in the warrant). The term Fundamental Transaction includes a merger, sale of substantially all of our assets, or if any person shall acquire 50% or more of the voting power of our shares. The Black Scholes Value (as defined in the warrant) payable for the 3,900,000 warrants as of June 30, 2015 was approximately $5.3 million.

16

We may issue additional shares of our common stock, which could depress the market price of our common stock and dilute your ownership.

As of August 31, 2012,September 15, 2015, we had issued and outstanding options to purchase 45,333 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 7,754,1874,298,000 shares of our common stock. The shares underlying none of these options, and 6,782,0404,253,000 of these warrants have been registered and may be freely sold. Market sales of large amounts of our common stock, or the potential for those sales even if they do not actually occur, may have the effect of depressing the market price of our common stock. In addition, if our future financing needs require us to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock, the supply of common stock available for resale could be increased which could stimulate trading activity and cause the market price of our common stock to drop, even if our business is doing well. Furthermore, the issuance of any additional shares of our common stock including those pursuant to the exercise of warrants by the holders thereof, or securities convertible into our common stock could be substantially dilutive to holders of our common stock if they do not invest in future offerings.

stock.

Our stock price may be volatile.

The trading price of our common stock is expected to be subject to significant fluctuations in response to various factors including, but not limited to, the following:

 quarterly variations in operating results and achievement of key business metrics;

 changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts, if any;

 any differences between reported results and securities analysts’ published or unpublished expectations;

 announcements of new contracts, service offerings or technological innovations by us or our competitors;

 market reaction to any acquisitions, joint ventures or strategic investments announced by us or our competitors;

 demand for our services and products;

 shares of common stock being sold pursuant to Rule 144 or upon exercise of warrants;

 regulatory matters;

 concerns about our financial position, operating results, litigation, government regulation, developments or disputes relating to agreements, patents or proprietary rights;

 potential dilutive effects of future sales of shares of common stock by shareholders and by the Company, and subsequent saleCompany;

the amount of average daily trading volume in our common stock by the holders of warrants and options;stock;

 our ability to obtain working capital financing; and

 general economic or stock market conditions unrelated to our operating performance.

The securities market in recent years has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic conditions, may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

20

The substantial market overhang of our shares may tend to depress the market price of our shares.

As of August 31, 2012, there were outstanding warrants to purchase 2,518,040September 15, 2015, the Company has 4,253,000 of our shares underlying warrants exercisable at the exercise price of $1.13 per share at any time before December 31, 2013, and 4,264,000 of our shares at the exercise price of $2.6058 per share at any time before September 18, 2016. The Company has agreed and/or intends2016 which are required to registerbe registered by us for resale in the open market of the shares underlying these warrants.under applicable securities laws. Sales in the public market of a substantial number of the shares underlying these warrants, or the perception that these sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. In addition, the sale of these shares could impair our ability to raise capital, should we wish to do so, through the sale of additional common stock. We are unable to estimate the number of shares that may be sold because this will depend on the market price for our common stock, the personal circumstances of the sellers and other factors.

Director and officer liability is limited.

As permitted by Pennsylvania law, our by-laws limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty except for liability in certain instances. As a result of our by-law provisions and Pennsylvania law, shareholders may have limited rights to recover against directors for breach of fiduciary duty. In addition, our by-laws and indemnification agreements entered into by the Company with each of the officers and directors provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Our publicly-filed reports are reviewed by the SEC from time to time and any significant changes required as a result of any such review may result in material liability to us, and have a material adverse impact on the trading price of our common stock.

The reports of publicly-traded companies are subject to review by the SEC from time to time for the purpose of assisting companies in complying with applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall effectiveness of companies’ public filings, and comprehensive reviews of such reports are now required at least every three years under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. SEC reviews may be initiated at any time. While we believe that our previously filed SEC reports comply, and we intend that all future reports will comply in all material respects with the published SEC rules and regulations, we could be required to modify or reformulate information contained in prior filings as a result of an SEC review. Any modification or reformulation of information contained in such reports could be significant and result in material liability to us and have a material adverse impact on the trading price of our common stock.

In connection with the proxy contest, on May 3, 2012 the Company commenced a legal action against the former director and his nominees and certain other parties (collectively, “SAVE”). As part of the litigation, in July 2012 certain members of SAVE filed counterclaimscomplaint against the Company and Stephen P. Herbert relating to, among other things, the 2012 annual meeting of shareholders. On August 16, 2012, the Company and SAVE entered into a Settlement and Release Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, SAVE accepted the election of all nine of the Company’s director nominees by the shareholders at the June 28, 2012 annual meeting of shareholders and have agreed not to contest or challenge the election results and the Company and SAVE have dismissed with prejudice the civil action filed on May 3, 2012 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania knownArizona. On April 10, 2015, Universal Clearing filed an amended complaint, and on June 19, 2015, Universal Clearing filed a second amended complaint, which alleged causes of action against the Company for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and defamation. The allegations in the complaint relate to an agreement entered into between the Company and Universal Clearing pursuant to which Universal Clearing could board certain sub-merchants on the Company’s service. The complaint seeks monetary damages allegedly incurred by Universal Clearing as USA Technologies, Inc. v. Bradley Tirpak, et al., v. Stephen P. Herbert (Civil Action No. 12-2399-TJS)a result of, among other things, the Company’s refusal to board on its service certain sub-merchants of Universal Clearing.

The counterclaim alleges that Universal Clearing is responsible under the agreement for these chargebacks, and Universal Clearing misrepresented to the Company the business practices and other matters relating to these sub-merchants. On August 17, 2015, Universal Clearing filed an answer to the counterclaim denying that it was responsible for the chargebacks or had made any misrepresentations.

On August 7, 2015, the Company filed a third party complaint in the pending action against Steven Juliver, the manager of Universal Clearing, as well as allagainst Universal Tranware, LLC, and Secureswype, LLC, entities affiliated with Universal Clearing.

Item 7.7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

USA Technologies, Inc. provides wireless networking, cashless transactions, asset monitoring, and other value-added services principally to the small ticket, unattended retail markets.Point of Sale (“POS”) market. Our ePort® technology can be installed and/or embedded into everyday devices such as vending machines, a variety of kiosks, as well asamusement, commercial laundry, kiosk and smartphones via our eSuds™ technology for washer and dryers.ePort Mobile™ solution. Our associated network service, ePort Connect®, is a PCI-compliant, comprehensive service that provides wireless connectivity that facilitates electronic payment optionsincludes simplified credit/debit card processing and support, consumer engagement services as well as telemetry and machine-to-machine (“M2M”) services, including the ability to remotely monitor, control and report on the results of distributed assets containing our electronic payment solutions. In addition, the Company provides energy management products, such as its VendingMiser® and CoolerMiser™, which reduce energy consumption in vending machines and coolers.

The Company generates revenue in multiple ways. We derive the majority of our revenues from license and transaction fees related to our ePort Connect service. Connections to our service stem from the sale or lease of our POS electronic payment devices or certified payment software or the servicing of similar third-party installed POS terminals. The majority of ePort Connect customers pay a monthly fee plus a blended transaction rate on the dollar volume processed by the Company. Customers with higher expected transaction rates might pay a lower or no ePort Connect monthly fee, but a higher blended transaction rate on dollar volume processed by the Company. Connections to the ePort Connect service, therefore, are the most significant driver of the Company’s revenues, particularly revenues from license and transaction fees.

The Company also generates equipment revenue through the direct sale, lease, or rental of ePort® technology as well as our stand-alone, non-networked energy management products.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GENERAL

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe the policies and estimates related to revenue recognition, software development costs, impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, and investments represent our critical accounting policies and estimates. Future results may differ from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
27

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from the sale or QuickStart lease of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point, orpoint. Activation fee revenue, if applicable, is recognized when the Company’s cashless payment device is initially activated for use on the Company network. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon installation and acceptancethe usage of the equipment if installationCompany’s cashless payment and control network. License fees for access to the Company’s devices and network services are purchasedrecognized on a monthly basis. In all cases, revenue is only recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed and determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company estimates an allowance for product returns at the date of sale and license and transaction fee refunds on a monthly basis.

ePort hardware is available to customers under the QuickStart program pursuant to which the customer would enter into a five-year non-cancelable lease with either the Company or a third-party leasing company for the related equipment.devices. At the end of the lease period, the customer would have the option to purchase the device for a nominal fee.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from the sale or QuickStart lease of equipment is recognized on the terms of freight-on-board shipping point. Activation fee revenue is recognized when the Company’s cashless payment device is initially activated for use on the Company network. Transaction processing revenue is recognized upon the usage of the Company’s cashless payment and control network. License fees for access to the Company’s devices and network services are recognized on a monthly basis. In all cases, revenue is only recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed and determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company estimates an allowance for product returns at the date of sale.

IMPAIRMENT OF sale and license and transaction fee refunds on a monthly basis.

LONG LIVED ASSETS

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification® (“ASC”) TopicASC 360, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-livedLong-Lived Assets”, the Company reviews its definite lived long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets exceeds its net realizable value, the asset will be written down to its fair value. In the period when the plan of sale criteria of ASC 360 are met, definite lived long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of the net assets purchased in acquisitions. The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”. Under ASC 350, goodwill is not amortized to earnings, but instead is subject to periodic testing for impairment. The Company tests goodwill for impairment using a two-step process. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. The Company uses a discounted cash flow analysis to complete the first step in this process. We also give consideration to our market capitalization. Testing for impairment is to be done at least annually and at other times if events or circumstances arise that indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company has selected April 1 as its annual test date. The Company has concluded there has been no impairment of goodwill as a result of its testing on April 1, 2012, April 1, 2011, and April 1, 2010.

The Company trademarks with an indefinite economic life are not being amortized. The trademarks, not subject to amortization, are related to the miserEnergyMiser asset group and consist of the following trademarks: 1) VendingMiser, 2) CoolerMiser, 3) PlugMiser and 4) SnackMiser.four trademarks. The Company tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment using a two-step process. The first step screens for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. The Company uses a discounted cash flowrelief from royalty analysis to complete the first step in this process. Testing for impairment is to be done at least annually and at other times if events or circumstances arise that indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company has selected April 1 as its annual test date for its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company concluded there was an impairment of its indefinite-lived trademarks as a result of its testing in its fiscal year 2011, and has recorded a $581,900 impairment expense in fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). There was no impairment expense recorded during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and 2010.

Patents and trademarks, with an estimated economic life, are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, which is calculated on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic life. The Company reviews intangibles, subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An asset is considered to be impaired when the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount. The amount of the impairment loss, if any, is measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset and its estimated fair value. Other than described above, as of June 30, 2012, 2011, and 2010, the Company has concluded there has been no impairment of its other patents or trademarks that are subject to amortization.

Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 were $29,017,243, consisting of $23,370,754 of license and transactions fees and $5,646,489 of equipment sales, compared to $22,868,789 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, consisting of $16,442,485 of license and transaction fees and $6,426,304 of equipment sales. The increase in total revenue of $6,148,454, or 27%, was primarily due to an increase in license and transaction fees of $6,928,269, or 42%, from the prior year, and a decrease in equipment sales of $779,815 or 12%, from the prior year.

The increase in license and transaction fees was due to the growth in ePort Connect service fees and transaction dollar volumedollars that stems from the increased number of connections to our ePort Connect service. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had approximately 164,000 connections to the ePort Connect service (including approximately 15,000 non-USAT, third party devices) as compared to approximately 119,000 connections to the ePort Connect service (including approximately 13,000 non-USAT, third party devices) as of June 30, 2011. During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company added approximately 45,000 connections to our network as compared to approximately 37,000 connections during the year ended June 30, 2011. The JumpStart Program units represented approximately 65% and 60% of connections added during the 2012 and 2011 fiscal years, respectively.

Pursuant to its agreements with customers, the Company, in addition to ePort ConnectionConnect service fees, the Company earns transaction processing fees equal to a percentage of the dollar volume processed by the Company, which are included as licensing and transaction processing revenues in its Consolidated Statements of Operations.Company. During the year ended June 30, 2012,2015, the Company processed approximately 103216.6 million transactions totaling approximately $171$388.9 million compared to approximately 72168.5 million transactions totaling approximately $120$293.8 million during the year ended June 30, 2011,2014, an increase of approximately 43%29% in the number of transactions and approximately 32% in the value of transactions processed.

It typically takes 30-60 days for a new connection to begin contributing to the Company’s license and transaction fee revenues. The Company counts its ePort Connect connections upon shipment of an active terminal to a customer under contract, at which time activation on its network is performed by the Company, and the terminal is capable of conducting business via the Company’s network and related services. An ePort connection does not necessarily mean that the unit is actually installed by the customer on a machine, or that the unit has begun processing transactions, or that the Company has begun receiving monthly service fees in connection with the unit. Rather, at the time of shipment of the ePort, the customer becomes obligated to pay the one-time activation fee, and is obligated to pay monthly service fees in accordance with the terms of the customer’s contract with the Company. We anticipate that our license and transaction fee revenues would continue to increase if the number of connections to our network would continue to increase.

In addition, our customer base increased with approximately ­­­1,350 new

New customers added to our ePort® Connect service during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012,2015 totaled 2,300, bringing the total number of such customers to approximately 3,3009,600 as of June 30, 2012.2015. The Company added approximately 8752,250 new customers in the year ended June 30, 2011.2014. By comparison, the Company had approximately 1,9507,300 customers as of June 30, 2011,2014, representing a 69%32% increase during the past twelve months. The Company views the total installed base of machines managed by its customers that have yet to transition to cashless payment, as a key strategic opportunity for future growth in connections. We count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of their ePort Connect service agreement. When a reseller sells our ePort, we count a customer as a new customer upon the signing of the applicable services agreement with the customer.

The $779,815 decrease$7,737,169 increase in equipment sales was a result of decreasesan increase of approximately $359,000$8,159,507 related to ePort® products, offset by decreases of approximately $395,000$433,130 in Energy Miser products and approximately $26,000 in other products. The $359,000 decreaseincrease in ePort products is directly attributable to $322,000 of activation fees on non-USAT, third party devices and other activation services performed inselling more units, versus renting units via the 2011JumpStart program, during the current fiscal year. Also contributingyear due to the decreasereintroduction of the QuickStart program in ePort product sales were revenues recorded in the 2011 fiscal year of $225,000 of Visa support funding and approximately $73,000 of revenue recognized under our May 2008 agreement with a customer. These decreases were offset by a $261,000 increase in ePort product revenues attributable to increased activation fees on JumpStart units and equipment sales.September 2014. The decrease in Energy Miser equipment sale revenueproducts is due directly attributable to selling fewer units sold during the year ended June 30, 2012 than during the year ended June 30, 2011.

Cost of sales consisted of cost of services for license and transaction fee related costsfees of $15,312,966$29,429,385 and $11,651,138$23,018,001 and equipment costs of $3,743,226$11,825,455 and $3,468,993,$4,254,127, for the yearyears ended June 30, 20122015 and 2011,2014, respectively. The increase in total cost of sales of $3,936,061$13,982,712, or 51%, was due to an increase in cost of equipment sales of $7,571,328 due to selling more units during the period under the QuickStart program. In fiscal 2014, the JumpStart program accounted for a significant percentage of the Company’s net new connections. Under this program, the cost of the device is depreciated to cost of services of $3,661,828for license and transaction fees over the expected rental period. There was also an increase in equipment costs of $274,233. The increase in cost of services was predominantly related to increases in units connectedof $6,411,384 that stemmed from the greater number of connections to the networkCompany’s ePort Connect service and increases in transaction dollars. In addition, approximately $316,000 of the $3,661,828 increase in cost of services was attributable to increased debit card processing costs incurred because of the significant increase of interchange fees chargeddollars processed by Visa and MasterCard, which became effective on October 1, 2011. The impact on margins caused by these increases in the second fiscal quarter did not impact the subsequent quarters in fiscal 2012 as the Visa Agreement that went effect on October 14, 2011 essentially restored Visa debit interchange rates to pre-October 1, 2011 levels during the one-year term of the agreement, and the Company ceased the acceptance of MasterCard debit cards in mid-November 2011. Also contributing to the increase in cost of services was approximately $199,000 of costs for electronic communication of software updates to connected ePorts®. The increase in equipment costs related to the increased freight-in costs of approximately $140,000 associated with our Verizon enabled ePorts as well as slightly higher costs to manufacture the Verizon enabled ePorts.

Gross profit (“GP”) for the year ended June 30, 20122015 was $9,961,051$16,822,634 compared to GP of $7,748,658$15,072,836 for the previous fiscal year, an increase of $2,212,393,$1,749,798, or 12%, of which $3,266,441$14,204,077 is attributable to license and transaction fees GP offset by a decrease of $1,054,048and $2,618,557 of equipment sales GP. The increaseOverall gross profit margins decreased from 36% to 29% due to a decrease in GP dollars from license and transaction fees was mainly generatedmargins to 33%, from 35% in the prior fiscal year and by additional devices connected to our network. Thea decrease in GP from equipment sales is predominantlymargins to 18%, from 37% in the prior fiscal year.

License and transaction fees margins decreased due to the impact of certain JumpStart connections added during the third and fourth quarters of 2014 fiscal 2011 revenue items mentioned above andyear with fee grace periods extending into fiscal year 2015 under sales incentives, as well as approximately $1,716,000 of net rent expense during the additional costs incurred for freight-inyear ended June 30, 2015 related to the Sale Leaseback transactions, which is approximately $535,000 higher than the depreciation the Company would have recorded on the ePorts during the same period had the Sale Leaseback transactions not occurred. Also contributing to the decrease of the Verizon enabled ePorts. Overall margins were consistent at 34%, while license and transaction fee margins increasedwas a charge of approximately $410,000 connection with a customer billing dispute.

The decrease in equipment revenue margins is attributable to sales under the QuickStart program, which has generally lower margins than what is recognized under a rental, or JumpStart. In addition, there were approximately $878,000 less in activation fees recorded during fiscal 2015 versus fiscal 2014, which are a higher margin revenue source, and to date have not been part of the QuickStart program.

The $166,000 increase in equipment sales GP includes one-time recoveries of $747,000 and $152,000 in the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The $747,000 relates to recoveries arising from 29%a customer agreement; and, the $152,000 was a reversal of a prior charge for equipment rebates. Excluding these one-time items, equipment sales GP decreased $429,000 from the prior year, which was mostly attributable to 34%,having $878,000 less GP from ePort activation fees, which are a higher margin revenue source and which to date are not part of the QuickStart Program and $215,000 less GP related to fewer energy miser offset by a higher dollar volume of gross profit from the large increase in equipment margins having decreased from 46%revenue dollars as compared to 34%. License and transaction fee margins increased due to improved efficiencies stemming from recent partnership agreements, a larger ePort Connect service base, as well as having a larger number of JumpStart rental units with fees in the 2012 fiscal year versus a year ago when a larger number of JumpStart units had a longer period before monthly fees commenced. These improvements were offset by the additional costs incurred during the second fiscal quarter for interchange fees described above, and electronic communication of device software updates.

We have excluded the non-operating item, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, because it represents a non-cash gain or charge that is not related to the Company’s operations. We have excluded the non-cash expenses,expense, stock-based compensation, and impairment expense, as they doit does not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income or net loss of the Company or net cash used in operating activities. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company’s net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not a substitute for or a measure of the Company’s profitability or net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and non-cash charges for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense.

Revenues2013

Results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 20112014 continued to demonstrate growth and improvements in the Company’s operations as compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. Highlights of year over year improvements include:

·$27.3 million of deferred tax assets recognized;
·Total revenue up 18% to $42.3 million;
·Recurring license and transaction fee revenue up 19% to $35.6 million; and
·Total connections to its ePort Connect service base as of June 30, 2014 up 24% as compared to June 30, 2013.

Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 were $22,868,789,$42,344,964, consisting of $6,426,304 of equipment sales and $16,442,485$35,638,121 of license and transactions fees compared to $15,771,106, consisting of $6,464,006and $6,706,843 of equipment sales, and $9,307,100compared to $35,940,244 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, consisting of $30,044,429 of license and transaction fees for the year ended June 30, 2010.and $5,895,815 of equipment sales. The increase in total revenue of $7,097,683,$6,404,720, or 45%18%, was primarily due to an increase in license and transaction fees of $7,135,385,$5,593,692, or 77%19%, from the prior period, offset by a decreaseyear, and an increase in equipment sales of $37,702$811,028 or 1%14%, from the prior period. The increase in license and transaction fees was primarily due to the increase in the number of connections to our ePort Connect network, and the associated fees generated by these connected units. License and transaction fee revenues consist of service fees and transaction processing fees. We anticipate that our license and transaction fee revenues would continue to increase if the number of connections to our network would continue to increase.

As of June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately 119,000 connections to our ePort Connect service (including approximately 13,000 third party devices) as compared to approximately 82,000 connections (including approximately 7,000 third party devices) as of June 30, 2010. During the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company added approximately 37,000 connections. Units sold under the JumpStart Program represented slightly above 60% and 45% of connections added during the June 2011 and June 2010 fiscal years, respectively.
During the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company processed approximately 72 million transactions totaling approximately $120 million of transaction processing volume compared to approximately 37 million transactions totaling approximately $68 million of transaction processing volume during the year ended June 30, 2010, an increase of approximately 95% in the number of transactions and approximately 76% in dollars processed. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, approximately 82% of the transactions handled by our network consisted of small ticket debit card transactions. Pursuant to its agreements with customers, the Company earns transaction processing fees equal to a percentage of the dollar volume processed by the Company, which are included as licensing and transaction processing revenues in its Consolidated Statements of Operations..
In addition, our customer base increased with approximately 875 new customers added to our ePort Connect network during the year ended June 30, 2011 bringing the total number of such customers to approximately 1,950 as of June 30, 2011. The Company added approximately 300 new customers in the year ended June 30, 2010. By comparison, the Company had approximately 1,075 customers as of June 30, 2010, representing an 83% increase during the past fiscal year.
The $37,702 decrease in equipment sales was a result of an increase of approximately $365,000 related to Energy Miser products offset by a net decrease of approximately $157,000 in sales of ePort® products and fees and a decrease of approximately $246,000 in sales of the Business Center and eSuds® product lines combined. The net decrease in ePort® related sales revenue of $157,000 is attributable to reduced hardware sales of approximately $683,000, offset by increases of approximately $526,000 in revenue associated with other aspects of our ePort business described below. The decrease in hardware sale revenue is due mainly to the fact that a significant portion of the ePort® units shipped during the year ended June 30, 2011were part of the JumpStart Program, for which the Company records a one-time activation fee, but does not record an equipment (hardware) sale.
The JumpStart Program began in December 2009, therefore most ePort® units shipped during the year ended June 30, 2010 were sold to our customers and an equipment (hardware) sale was recorded. Pursuant to the JumpStart Program, the Company is entitled to receive a one-time activation fee upon shipment of the device, a monthly service fee, generally commencing the month after shipment, and transactional processing fees due in connection with the cashless activity generated by the device. The decrease in hardware sales was offset by increases of (1) approximately $228,000 in activation related fees related to JumpStart Program units, (2) $225,000 of Visa support funding for installation and making operational Visa accepting ePorts, and (3) approximately $73,000 of revenue recognized under our May 2008 agreement with a customer.
The Company entered into an Acceptance and Promotional Agreement with Visa USA, Inc. on August 16, 2010. Under the first program year of the agreement, the Company is entitled to receive up to $225,000 to be used to support the installation and making operational of up to 9,000 terminals, which accept the Visa brand, by no later than December 31, 2010. During the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded $225,000 of revenue related to the support funding for installation and making operational of Visa accepting terminals. As required by the Visa agreement, the Company supported the installation and made operational at least 9,000 terminals by December 31, 2010.
Cost of sales consisted of equipment costs of $3,468,993 and $4,049,433 and network and transaction services related costs of $11,651,138 and $6,861,642 for the year ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in total cost of sales of $4,209,056 over the prior fiscal year was due to a decrease in equipment costs of $580,440, offset by an increase in network and transaction services of $4,789,496. The decrease in equipment costs was a direct result of shipping more units under the JumpStart Program. The costs associated with the JumpStart units were recorded to Property and Equipment on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The increase in network and transaction services costs was directly related to increases in units connected to the network and increases in transaction dollar processing volume, offset by decreases in third party supplier costs due to an amendment to a contract which occurred in the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Gross profit (“GP”) for the year ended June 30, 2011 was $7,748,658 compared to gross profit of $4,860,031 for the previous fiscal year, an increase of $2,888,627, of which $542,738 is attributable to equipment sales and $2,345,889 is attributable to license and transaction fees. The increase in GP from equipment sales is predominately due to the increase in activation fees on JumpStart connections as compared to the prior fiscal year as well as the Visa support funding recorded during the year ended June 30, 2011. The increase in GP dollars from license and transaction fees was generated by additional devices connected to our network and a decrease in third party supplier costs related to the contract amendment referred to above. GP increased overall from 31% to 34%, equipment sales GP increased from 37% to 46% due mainly to (1) approximately $228,000 increase in activation related fees related to JumpStart Program units added during the fiscal year 2011 compared to the JumpStart Program units added during the year ended June 30, 2010, (2) $225,000 of Visa support funding for installation and making operational Visa accepting ePorts during the year ended June 30, 2011 and $0 during the year ended June 30, 2010, and (3) approximately $73,000 of revenue recognized under our May 2008 agreement with a customer during the year ended June 30, 2011, and license and transaction fees GP increased from 26% to 29% due mainly to the decrease in third party supplier costs related to the contract amendment referred to above.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses of $11,430,610 for the year ended June 30, 2011, decreased by $3,455,075 or 23%, from the prior fiscal year, due to an approximate $2,300,000 decrease as a result of the Company’s expense reduction efforts and an approximate $1,156,000 decrease in proxy contest, litigation and settlement expenses. The Company’s expense reduction of $2,300,000 consisted of decreases in consulting and other professional services of approximately $1,511,000, compensation expenses of approximately $581,000, facility expenses of approximately $128,000, product development material costs of approximately $127,000, offset by net increases of approximately $47,000.
The consulting and other professional services decrease of approximately $1,511,000 was primarily due to $522,000 of reductions in costs of information technology, as well as reductions in costs of research and development of approximately $496,000, legal costs of approximately $220,000, accounting charges of approximately $116,000 and expenses for other services of approximately $156,000, net. The compensation expense net decrease of approximately $581,000 was due to a decrease of approximately $664,000 in salaries, severances and commissions, as well as a decrease of approximately $143,000 in benefit costs, offset by an increase of approximately $226,000 related to non-cash compensation expenses.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $581,900 on an intangible asset. The intangible asset impaired is related to the Miser energy products and consists of the trademarks: 1) VendingMiser, 2) CoolerMiser, 3) PlugMiser and 4) SnackMiser. This asset is unrelated to the Company’s core operations related to the ePort wireless, cashless products. The Company believes the impairment of this non-core asset, and the factors surrounding its impairment do not in any way effect the ongoing operations of the Company.
The year ended June 30, 2011 resulted in a net loss of $6,457,067 (including approximately $4.6 million of non-cash charges) compared to a net loss of $11,571,495 (including approximately $2 million of non-cash charges) for the year ended June 30, 2010, an improvement of $5,114,428, or 44%. Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2011 was the lowest net loss of any fiscal year since our shares became listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market in March 2007. For the year ended June 30, 2011, the net loss applicable to common shareholders was $7,122,644, or $.26 per share, as compared to a loss per common share of $12,306,634, or $.55 per share, for the prior fiscal year.

We have excluded the non-operating item, change in fair value of warrant liabilities, because it represents a non-cash charge or gai n that is not related to the Company’s operations. We have excluded the non-cash expenses,expense, stock-based compensation, and impairment expense, as they doit does not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income or net loss of the Company or net cash used in operating activities.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and non-cash charges for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities and stock-based compensation expense.

The cash provided by the $2,781,428 change in the Company’s operating assets and liabilities was primarily the result of increases in finance receivables of $2,513,898$4,113,898 related to the QuickStart program, accounts receivable of $2,517,493, predominately related to sales of hardware sold with credit terms, $1,930,857 in accrued expenses and $498,082 in accounts payable,inventory; these uses of cash were partially offset by an $820,412increase of $918,761 in accounts payable.

During the fiscal year the Company reintroduced QuickStart, a program whereby our customers are able to purchase our ePort hardware via a five-year, non-cancellable lease. From its introduction in September 2014 and through approximately mid-March 2015, the Company was entering into these leases directly with its customers. Under this scenario, the Company recorded a long-term and short-term receivable for the five-year leases. The $4,113,898 increase in finance receivables is directly due to leases the Company entered into directly with its customers. In the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2015, the Company signed vendor agreements with two leasing companies, whereby our customers would enter into leases directly with the leasing companies. Under this scenario, the Company invoiced the leasing company for the equipment leased by our customer, and recorded as an accounts receivable. Unlike its finance receivables, which the cash would be collected over a five-year period, the accounts receivable due from the leasing company is typically collected within 30 days. Since entering into the vendor agreements, and through June 30, 2015, the majority of QuickStart sales consummated were with the customer entering into the lease directly with the leasing company, which contributed to the $2,517,493 increase in accounts receivable. Ofreceivable, whereby amounts due from the $2,781,428leasing companies had not yet been collected by June 30, 2015.

There has been a shift by our customers from acquiring our product via JumpStart, which accounted for 60% of our gross connections in fiscal year 2014, and was just 4% in our 2015 fourth quarter, to QuickStart or a straight purchase, which accounted for 89% of our gross connections in fiscal year 2015 and was approximately 54% of gross connections for our fiscal 2015 fourth quarter. This is further illustrated in our cash flow statement whereby the cash used for the purchase of property for rental program reduced from $10,883,473 in fiscal 2014 to just $1,641,993 in fiscal 2015. This shift, as well as our ability to increase the cash collection under QuickStart sales, by utilizing leasing companies (as described above) if available, significantly improves cash flows from operating activities. We believe we will continue to be able to utilize third party leasing companies in our QuickStart program, and therefore do not expect finance receivables to increase in accrued expenses, $993,000 relatesthe future. The exception being, for any customer unable to secure third party leasing for which the proxy contest, and ofCompany may decide to enter in a lease directly with the $498,082 increase in accounts payables, $15,000 relatescustomer or if we are unable to the proxy contest.

During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company used $6,232,814 in2015, $3,353,491 of cash was provided by investing activities of which $5,754,670$4,993,879 was received from the sale of rental equipment under sale-leaseback transactions, which were offset by cash used of $1,641,993 related to the purchase of equipment for the JumpStart Program and $478,144 for network equipment. The Company used $410,288 forprogram.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $645,904 predominately from $2,056,724 of which $368,917 relatedproceeds received by selling finance receivables with recourse and/or the rights to the cash flows from the finance receivables to a third party leasing company, offset by the repayment of long-term$1,000,000 on the Line of Credit and $358,582 of debt.

The Company has incurred losses since inception. Our accumulated deficit through June 30, 2012 is composed of cumulative losses amounting to approximately $199,160,000, preferred dividends converted to common stock of approximately $2,690,000, and charges incurred

Adjusted EBITDA for the open-market purchases of preferred stock of approximately $150,000. The Company has historically raised capital through equity offerings in order to fund operations.

As a result of the continued growth in connections to our ePort Connect service, recurring revenue from license and transaction fees increased from $5,029,000 for the three monthsyear ended June 30, 20112015 was $6,258,993 compared to approximately $6,383,000$6,451,311 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of 27%. In addition, total GP dollars and GP margins have increased from $2,352,000 and 34% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $3,178,000 and 40% for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of 35% in GP dollars and a six point improvement in margins. Our average monthly cash GP during the three months ended June 30, 2012, excluding non-cash depreciation expense included in cost of sales during the quarter of approximately $556,000, approximates $1,245,000 and is expected to increase in the nextprior fiscal quarter due to recognizing recurring revenue on units shipped during the quarter ended June 30, 2012.
Our average monthly SG&A expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2012 were approximately $1,807,000. This includes charges during the quarter of approximately $2,229,000 related to the proxy contest matter, and other non-cash net charges of approximately $401,000. Excluding these charges, our average monthly cash-based SG&A expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $930,000.
The excess of cash-based GP over the cash-based SG&A expenses described above should manifest itself in positive Adjusted EBITDA.year. The Company reports Adjusted EBITDA to reflect the liquidity of operations and a measure of operational cash flow. Adjusted EBITDA excludes significant non-cash charges such as depreciation, amortization of intangibles, fair value warrant liability changes, and stock-based compensation from net income. For onlyincome and changes to the second time in its history, the Company reported positive Adjusted EBITDACompany’s valuation allowances for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 of approximately $336,000.taxes. We believe that, provided there are no unusual or unanticipated material non-operational expenses, achieving positive Adjusted EBITDA is sustainable, predominately because the currentand will continue to increase, as our connection base is drivingincreases.

As a result of the necessary level ofcontinued growth in connections to our ePort Connect service that has resulted in strong growth in recurring revenue from license and transaction fees and associated gross profits to support sustainability,the improvement in GP dollars, as well as the significant reduction in cash used for JumpStart, and asthe utilization of third party leasing companies in our connection base increases, we believe Adjusted EBITDA will continue to grow as well. AlthoughQuickStart program, the Company reported an Adjusted EBITDA loss of approximately $1,415,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, included in that loss is approximately $2.2 million of expenses related to the proxy contest matter, which we believe are unrelated to the core operations of our business. Therefore, excluding these costs, Adjusted EBITDA for the June 30, 2012 quarter would have shown further improvement to approximately $814,000generated positive Adjusted EBITDA.

During the 2013 fiscal year, andfree cash flow (defined as net cash provided there are no unanticipated or unusual non-operational expenses, the Company anticipates utlizing substantial cash resources in connection with ePort units expected to be used in the JumpStart Program. In the event we incur any unanticipated or unusual non-operational expenses during the 2013 fiscal year, the Company may reduce the ePort units used in the JumpStart Program, thereby also reducing or eliminating theby operating activities less cash used for the program. Inpurchase of rental equipment/JumpStart) for its third and fourth quarters in fiscal 2012,year 2015. Free cash flow for the fourth quarter was $2,681,155, and the Company funded approximately two-thirds of its new connections through JumpStart. The Company anticipates using the JumpStart program for approximately 55%believes it will continue to 60% of its anticipated connections in fiscal 2013 as a result of the potential diversification from the kiosk market, where many customers only require our ePort SDK or our newly introduced Quick Connect web service.
As a result of the above described improvements ingenerate positive free cash flow and provided there are no unanticipated or unusual non-operational expenses duringfor the 20132016 fiscal year, we believe we are adequately positionedassuming QuickStart remains a significant component of connections, and third party leasing companies continue to fund and grow the business including the  JumpStart Program. enter into leases directly with our customers.

The Company has three sources of cash available to fund and grow the business:business as of June 30, 2015: (1) cash and cash equivalents on hand of $6,426,645 at June 30, 2012;approximately $11 million; (2) the anticipated growing level of Adjusted EBITDA (as described above) which indicates the business has the potential to generate cash;cash provided by operating activities from our QuickStart program; and (3) the availability of$3 million available under the line of credit with Avidbank that was established in July 2012 (see “Avidbank Line of Credit” below). Although the line initially has an availability of approximately $1.5 million, the Company anticipates that the availability would  increase as our business and relationship with Avidbank grows,a commercial bank, provided we continue to satisfy the various affirmative and negative covenants set forth in the loan agreement.

Therefore, based upon The line of credit matures on August 17, 2017. In addition, the above assumptions,Company believes the capital markets, debt and equity, would be available to provide additional sources of cash, if required.

Therefore, the Company believes its existing cash and cash equivalents and available cash resources as of June 30, 2012,2015, would provide sufficient funds through at least July 1, 20132016 in order to meet its cash requirements, including payment of its accrued expenses and payables, any cash resources anticipated to be utilized for the JumpStart program, and other anticipated capital expenditures, and the repayment of long-term debt.

AVIDBANK LINE OF CREDIT
On July 10, 2012, to help fund growth initiatives like the JumpStart Program, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement and other ancillary documents (the “Loan Documents”) with Avidbank Corporate Finance, a division of Avidbank (“Avidbank” or the “Bank”), providing for a secured asset-based revolving line of credit in an amount of up to $3.0 million (the “Line of Credit”). The Line of Credit is the first bank provided lending  arrangement (excluding capital leases) the Company has obtained since its listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market in 2007. Due to the historical losses and cash burn of the Company, bank provided lending was difficult to secure and the Company has historically relied on equity raises as a source of working capital. The Company believes its ability to obtain this Line of Credit is a result of its improving financial performance and business model, and represents an opportunity to obtain working capital from a source other than equity financing. The Company further believes that as it establishes a  history of performing under the Line of Credit and its financial performance continues to improve, additional bank debt financing opportunities and/or arrangements would become available to the Company.
The Loan Documents provide that the aggregate amount of advances under the Line of Credit shall not exceed the lesser of (i) $3.0 million, or (ii) 75% of eligible accounts receivable as defined in the Loan Documents plus 80% of the prior two months transaction processing revenues and networking service fees as defined in the Loan Documents, provided that the amounts advanced on account of such processing revenues and service fees shall not exceed $1,000,000 without the Avidbank’s prior consent. The foregoing limits the amount available to the Company under the Line of Credit to approximately $1.5 million.
The outstanding balance of the amounts advanced under the Line of Credit will bear interest at 2% above the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal or 5% whichever is higher. Interest is payable by the Company to the Bank on a monthly basis, provided, that the minimum interest payable by the Company to the Bank with respect to each six month period shall be $20,000.
The Line of Credit and the Company’s obligations under the Loan Documents are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including its intellectual property.
The term of the Line of Credit is one year. At the time of maturity all outstanding advances under the Line of Credit as well as any unpaid interest is due and payable. Prior to maturity of the Line of Credit, the Company may prepay amounts due under the Line of Credit without penalty, and subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, may re-borrow any such amounts.
The Loan Documents contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Loan Documents also require the Company to achieve a minimum Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Loan Documents, measured on a quarterly basis, and to maintain a balance of $3.0 million of unrestricted cash in accounts with the Bank. The Company achieved the June 30, 2012 Adjusted EBITDA covenant as defined in the Loan Documents. We also believe we will achieve the Adjusted EBITDA covenants in the Loan Documents for the September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2012 quarters.
The Loan Documents also contain customary events of default, including, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of covenants, and bankruptcy and insolvency events, subject to grace periods in certain instances. Upon an event of default, the Bank may declare all of the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Line of Credit and Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, and exercise any other rights provided for under the Loan Documents. In the event the Bank would declare all of the outstanding obligations of the Company under the Line of Credit and Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, the $3.0 million of unrestricted cash  deposited with the Bank would be sufficient to satisfy all of the outstanding  principal obligations due to the Bank, and the Bank would not have any further recourse against any other assets of the Company.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“Topic 820”): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU 2009-062010-06 amends certain disclosure requirements of Subtopic 820-10. This ASU provides additional disclosures for transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and for activity in Level 3. This ASU also clarifies certain other existing disclosure requirements including level of desegregation and disclosures around inputs and valuation techniques.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured usingaccounted for in accordance with ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement.” Under ASC 820 the Company uses inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.hierarchy to measure its financial assets and liabilities. The three levels are as follows:

Level 1- Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2- Inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3- Inputs are unobservable and reflect the Company’s assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available.

The Company’s financial instruments, principally cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term finance receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are carried at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s obligations under its long-term debt and credit agreements and the long-term portion of its finance receivables approximates their carrying value as such instruments are at market rates currently available to the Company.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Property and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line basis over the lesser of the estimated useful life of the asset or the respective lease term.

The Company’s test for impairment of its indefinite-lived trademarks consists of the trademarks: 1) VendingMiser, 2) CoolerMiser, 3) PlugMiser and 4) SnackMiser. As a result of its testing in fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2010 the Company determined that no impairment had occurred. In the testing in fiscal year 2011, the Company determined that the sum of the expected discounted cash flows attributable to the trademarks was less than its carrying value of $1,014,000, and that an impairment write-down was required. The primary driver behind the decrease in the value was a decrease in the revenue expectations for the trademarks from the time the trademarks were acquired in July 2003 to when the impairment assessment was prepared. Accordingly, in fiscal year 2011, the Company performed a valuation of the trademark’s fair value with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist. The fair value of the trademarks was determined by a method known as “relief from royalty”, in which the fair value is determined by reference to the amount of royalty income the intangible would generate if it were licensed in an arm’s-length transaction. The essential assumptions in a valuation via an income approach are as follows:
The related dollar sales volume;
The percentage royalty on sales;
The adjustment for taxes;
The remaining useful economic life;
The percentage return on investment; and,
The tax amortization benefit.
During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, the fair value of the trademarks was determined to be $432,100. This assessment resulted in an impairment write-down during the fourth fiscal quarter of $581,900, which is included in “Impairment of intangible asset” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.
The trademark described above, is not related to the Company’s core operations consisting of its ePort wireless, cashless products and services.

10. INCOME TAXES

The Company has significant deferred tax assets, a substantial amount of which result from operating loss carryforwards. The Company routinely evaluates its ability to realize the benefits of these assets to determine whether it is more likely than not that such benefit will be realized. In periods prior to the year ended June 30, 2014, the Company’s evaluation of its ability to realize the benefit from its deferred tax assets resulted in a full valuation allowance against such assets. Based upon earnings performance that the Company had achieved along with the belief that such performance will continue into future years, the Company determined during the year ended June 30, 2014 that it was more likely than not that a substantial portion of its deferred tax assets would be realized and reduced its valuation allowances recorded in prior years by approximately $27 million, which includes $40,245 of deferred tax liabilities recorded as of June 30, 2013 reversing in the current year.

In addition to considering recent periods’ performance, the evaluation of the amount of deferred tax assets expected to be realized involves forecasting the amount of taxable income that will be generated in future years. The Company has forecasted future results using estimates that management believes to be conservative. The number of connections added in a service year are a key metric, which in the Company’s recurring revenue service model become an important ingredient in driving future growth and earnings. The forecasts the Company used assumes that significantly fewer net connections would be added to its service year than what it has historically achieved during each of its previous five fiscal years. With respect to its forecasts, the Company also has taken into account several industry analysts who have projected that demand for technology and services similar to the Company’s will continue to grow in the markets the Company serves. Using these forecasts, the Company estimated that it was more likely than not that approximately $64 million of its operating loss carryforwards would be utilized to offset corresponding future years’ taxable income.

If in future periods the Company demonstrates its ability to grow taxable income in excess of the forecasts described above, it will re-evaluate the need to keep some, or all, of the remaining valuation allowances of approximately $23 million on its deferred tax assets.

The benefit (provision) for income taxes for the years ended June 30, 2015, 2014 and 2013 is comprised of the following:

  2015  2014  2013 
Current:            
Federal $(58,028) $(21,021) $- 
State  (6,325)  -   - 
  (64,353) (21,021) - 
             
Deferred:            
Federal 365,143  20,970,149  (20,842)
State  (589,931)  6,306,270   (6,804)
  (224,788) 27,276,419  (27,646)

The provision for income taxes for the year ended June 30, 2015 includes $395,605 for the state and federal income tax effects of a decrease in the applicable state tax rate used to tax effect deferred tax assets caused by a state income tax law change. The provision for income taxes for the years ended June 30, 2013 was recorded for the future potential income tax effects for basis differences between financial reporting and income tax purposes for indefinite life intangible assets and goodwill that are being amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting. Because there was a full valuation allowance reflected against deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2013, the potential future income tax effects associated with such indefinite life assets were not subject to offset deferred tax assets with finite lives.

10. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

At June 30, 2012,2015 the Company had netfederal operating loss carryforwards of $168,327,709approximately $163 million to offset future taxable income expiring through approximately 2032. The Company had capital loss carryforwards of $4,759 as of June 30, 2011 that expired on June 30, 2012.

2035. The timing and extent to which the Company can utilize future tax deductionsoperating loss carryforwards in any year may be limited by provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding changes in ownership of corporations (i.e. IRS Code Section 382). The changes in ownership limitations under IRS Code Section 382 have had the effect of limiting the maximum amount of net operating loss carryforwards as of June 30, 2012 and 20112015 available for use to offset future years’ taxable income to $127,024,196 and $121,667,065, respectively.approximately $125 million. Those net operating loss carryforwards start to expire June 30, 2022.
At June 30, 2012 and 2011 the Company recorded net deferred tax assets of $51,708,064 and $48,973,987, respectively, which were offset by a valuation allowance of $51,720,663 and $48,973,987 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as the realization of the deferred tax asset is not likely, principally due to the lack of earnings history.
As of June 30, 2012, net deferred tax liabilities of $12,599 were recorded representing the future potential state and federal income tax effects for basis differences between financial reporting and income tax purposes as of June 30, 2012 for indefinite life intangible assets and goodwill that are being amortized for income tax purposes but not for financial reporting. The potential future income tax effects associated with such indefinite life assets are not subject to offset against deferred tax assets with finite lives.
These deferred tax liabilities resulted in a provision for income taxes for the year ended June 30, 2012 of $12,599 which is comprised of deferred state income taxes of $3,101 and deferred federal income taxes of $9,498.
An income tax benefit of $1,767,537 at the federal statutory rate of 34% is indicated for the year ended June 30, 2012 based upon the loss before provision for income taxes. In recording the provision for income taxes that benefit was reduced for the effects of increases in the valuation allowance of $2,327,354 for federal income taxes associated with deferred tax assets, increased for the effects of permanent differences of $594,264 and reduced by state income taxes net of federal benefit $2,046.

The net deferred tax assets arose primarily from net operating loss carryforwards, as well as the use of different accounting methods for financial statement and income tax reporting purposes as follows:

The proceeds from the offering will be used primarily to support the continuation of the Company’s JumpStart Program.
The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized various compensation plans. Activity for these plans during the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011, and 2010 are as follows:
On February 12, 2007, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, the Board adopted the LTIP Program for each of our three then-current executive officers. The LTIP Program was intended to ensure continuity of the Company’s executive management, to encourage stock ownership by such persons, and to align the interests of executive management with those of the shareholders.
Pursuant to and as defined in the LTIP Program, each executive would be awarded shares of the Company’s Common Stock if the Company achieves certain target goals relating to revenues, gross profit, and EBITDA (the “Target Goals”) of the Company during each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007, June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2009. On February 4, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the recommendation of the Compensation Committee that the final twelve month measuring period under the LTIP Program be changed from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. The foregoing was approved by the Board as the Board did not believe it would be appropriate to reward senior management with bonuses during the then-current economic slowdown. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, and excludes non-cash stock payments/awards and stock options granted to officers and Board members. The Program allows for the executive officers to reduce the number of shares to be issued in order to satisfy the minimum statutory tax withholding requirements.
Through the year ended June 30, 2009, the Company had issued 359,860 shares under the LTIP Program.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the number of eligible shares to be awarded to the executive is based upon the following weightings: 40% of eligible shares are determined by revenues; 30% of eligible shares are determined by gross profit; and 30% of eligible shares are determined by EBITDA. There are a total of 253,946 eligible shares for the 2010 fiscal year.
If the actual results for the fiscal year exceeds the Target Goals, each executive would be awarded an additional pro rata portion of the eligible shares, up to an amount no greater than 125% of the number of eligible shares. If the actual results for the fiscal year is less than the Target Goals, each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata portion of the number of eligible shares. If minimum Target Goals for the fiscal year are not achieved, no eligible shares would be awarded to each executive.
As a result of the Board’s decision to change the final twelve month measuring date of the LTIP Program from fiscal year 2009 to fiscal year 2010, the accrued share based liability as of June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $0 and $43,171, respectively, and compensation expense during the years ended June 30, 2011, and 2010 was $54,395 and $43,171, respectively. Final settlement of the award occurred in December 2010 with 86,342 shares earned and total compensation expense recorded of $97,566.
On February 28, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan to allow up to 300,000 shares of Common Stock to be available for issuance to future or current employees, directors and consultants of the Company. Prior to the year ended June 30, 2010, the Company had issued 239,253 shares under the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan. During the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company issued 20,747 and 40,000 shares under the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan totaling $10,208 and $87,354, respectively, based on the grant date fair value of the shares. table below:

During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company did not issue any under the plan totaling and recorded of $197,613 related to the vesting of shares to be issued under this plan.
In the 2012 fiscal year, the Company entered into three agreements with Mr. Jensen, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer –on September 27, 2011 an amended and restated employment agreement (the “Jensen Employment Agreement”)  as well as the Jensen Stock Agreement (the “Jensen Stock Agreement”); and, on October 14, 2011 a Separation Agreement and Release (the “Separation Agreement”).
The Jensen Employment Agreement continued substantially all of the previous terms and conditions of his employment agreement other than the provisions related to the Jensen Shares. The new agreement did not continue the provisions of his prior agreement which obligated the Company to pay any excise taxes attributable to any excess parachute payments which would be payable to Mr. Jensen upon the occurrence of a USA Transaction as well as the Company’s obligation to pay tax gross up payments attributable to such excise taxes. In exchange for modifying the excise tax and related gross up provisions, the Company issued an aggregate of 150,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Jensen under its stock incentive plans which were to vest as follows: 50,000 on the date the agreement was signed (September 27, 2011) by Mr. Jensen and the Company; 50,000 on the first anniversary of the date of signing (September 27, 2012); and 50,000 on the second anniversary of the date of signing (September 27, 2013).
The Jensen Stock Agreement contained the provisions relating to the issuance by the Company to Mr. Jensen of the Jensen Shares which had previously been set forth in his employment agreement. The provisions of Mr. Jensen’s prior employment agreement which required the Company to pay any excise taxes attributable to the excess parachute payments attributable to the Jensen Shares as well as the related obligation to make tax gross up payments have been retained in the Jensen Stock Agreement and continue to apply to the Jensen Shares.
Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Mr. Jensen resigned as Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and as a Director of the Company, effective October 14, 2011. Under the Separation Agreement, the Company issued to Mr. Jensen 41,667 shares of its common stock which were awarded in connection with the signing of an amendment to his employment agreement in April 2011, which would not have otherwise vested until April 2012; and 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock which were awarded to Mr. Jensen in connection with the signing Jensen Employment Agreement and which would not have otherwise vested until September 2012.
Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, 41,667 shares of common stock that would have vested in April 2013 in connection with the signing of an amendment to Mr. Jensen’s employment agreement in April 2011 and 50,000 shares of common stock that would have vested in September 2013 in connection with the signing of his amended and restated employment agreement in September 2011 were forfeited.
On September 27, 2011, the Company and Mr. Herbert entered into a second amendment to his employment agreement. The amendment eliminated the provisions of his prior agreement which obligated the Company to pay any excise taxes attributable to any excess parachute payments which would be received by Mr. Herbert upon the occurrence of a USA Transaction as well as the Company’s related obligation to make tax gross up payments. In exchange for eliminating the excise tax and related gross up provisions, the Company issued an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Herbert under its stock incentive plans which vest as follows: 33,333 on the date the agreement was signed by Mr. Herbert and the Company (September 27, 2011); 33,333 on the first anniversary of the date of signing (September 27, 2012); and 33,334 on the second anniversary of the date of signing (September 27, 2013).

11. COMMON STOCK (CONTINUED)
On November 30, 2011, the Company appointed Mr. Stephen P. Herbert as the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and entered into an Amended and Restated Employment and Non-Competition Agreement (the “Herbert Agreement”) that replaced his prior employment agreement with the Company. Notwithstanding the Herbert Agreement, the 100,000 shares of common stock awarded to Mr. Herbert under his prior employment agreement dated September 27, 2011 would vest as follows: 33,333 on September 27, 2011; 33,333 on the first anniversary of the date of signing (September 27, 2012); and 33,334 on the second anniversary of the date of signing (September 27, 2013).
On September 27, 2011, the Company and Mr. DeMedio entered into a fifth amendment to his employment agreement pursuant to which Mr. DeMedio was granted an aggregate of 25,000 shares of common stock as a bonus for his performance during the last six months of the 2011 fiscal year which vest as follows: 8,333 on the date of signing the amendment (September 27, 2011); 8,333 on the first anniversary of such signing date (September 27, 2012); and 8,334 on the second anniversary of such signing date (September 27, 2013).
On September 15, 2011, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the board of directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2012 Performance Share Plan (the “2012 Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2012 Plan, each executive officer will be awarded common stock in the event the Company achieves target goals during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 relating to the total number of connections, total revenues, operating expenses, and operating earnings. Operating earnings is defined as earnings before interest and taxes (after bonus accruals and stock awards) and before non-operating gains or losses. The number of eligible shares to be awarded to the executives is based upon the following weightings: 30% by the total number of connections; 30% by total revenues; 10% by operating expenses; and 30% by operating earnings. No awards would be made under the 2012 Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals have been achieved, or (ii) if operating earnings for the 2012 fiscal year are not equal or better than those during the 2011 fiscal year.
If all of the target performance goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded the following number of shares: Mr. Herbert – 120,000 shares; and Mr. DeMedio – 50,000 shares. If all of the minimum, threshold performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded 20% of the number of shares which would have been awarded to them if all of the target performance goals had been achieved. If all of the maximum, distinguished performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded 150% of the number of shares which would have been awarded to them if all of the target performance goals had been achieved. If the actual results for the fiscal year are less than the target goals (but greater than the minimum, threshold performance target goals), each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata portion of the number of eligible shares. In the event of the occurrence of a USA Transaction during the fiscal year, and provided that the executive is an employee of USA on the date of such USA Transaction, the Plan shall be terminated and each executive shall be awarded shares as of the date of such USA Transaction as if all of the target performance goals had been met. In the event that the executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for cause during the fiscal year, or if the executive resigns his employment for any reason other than for good reason during the fiscal year, then the executive shall not be entitled to earn any award under the 2012 Plan. In the event that the executive’s employment with the Company shall be terminated by the Company during the fiscal year for any reason whatsoever other than for cause, or if the executive’s employment is terminated by the executive for good reason during the fiscal year, then the executive shall be awarded shares as if all of the target performance goals had been meet. If the executive’s employment is terminated during the fiscal year as a result of death or disability, the executive shall nevertheless be eligible to earn shares under the 2012 Plan as if he had remained employed with the Company through the end of the fiscal year.
Notwithstanding the above description of the 2012 Plan, the executives would receive shares from the Company pursuant to the 2012 Plan only if and to the extent that shares would be available to be issued to the executives under the existing 2011 stock incentive plan or another stock plan that has been approved by the shareholders of the Company in accordance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c). If there would not be a sufficient number of shares available to be issued to the executives, the Company would pay to the executives an amount of cash equal to the value of those shares not available to be issued to the executives. In such event, the executives would be required to utilize the cash payment, net of any withholding, payroll or other taxes attributable to the cash payment, to purchase shares of common stock of the Company on the open market.

11. COMMON STOCK (CONTINUED)
As of September 15, 2011 and through June 27, 2012, there were not sufficient shares available under the existing 2011 stock incentive plan or another stock plan that had been approved by the shareholders of the Company; consequently, the Company may have been required to deliver to the executives an amount of cash equal to the value of shares earned but not available to be issued to the executives. Therefore, in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation”, this award was accounted for as a liability of the Company through June 27, 2012. On June 28, 2012, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, which includes sufficient shares for the 2012 Plan. Accordingly, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $197,613 for the vesting of 136,285 shares of Common Stock – 96,201 shares to Mr. Herbert and 40,084 shares to Mr. DeMedio.
Pursuant to the Separation Agreement entered into by the Company and Mr. Jensen, Mr. Jensen is not entitled to earn shares under the 2012 Plan, and therefore no award was estimated for Mr. Jensen for the fiscal 2012 year.
During the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, and as permitted under their employment agreements, executive officers cancelled an aggregate of 38,749, 2,217, and 5,113 shares of Common Stock, respectively, in order to satisfy an aggregate of $51,381, $2,261, and $9,668, respectively,  of payroll tax withholding obligations related to shares of Common Stock which vested during the 2009 through 2012 fiscal years.
During June 2011, the Board of Directors accepted the recommendation of the Compensation Committee that each non-employee Director serving as of June 30, 2011 receive a stock award of 10,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan valued at $2.22 per share. A total of 50,000 shares of Common Stock were awarded, and the shares vest as follows: 16,665 on June 30, 2011; 16,665 on June 30, 2012; and 16,670 on June 30, 2013. In February 2012, a non-employee member of the Board of Directors forfeited and returned to the Company 6,667 and 3,333 shares of Common Stock, respectively, awarded under this grant in June 2011. As of June 30, 2012, 29,998 shares, net, have vested and been issued. In addition, due to the February 2012 forfeiture and return and changes in the composition of the Board of Directors as approved by shareholders at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders on June 28, 2012, as of June 30, 2012, 10,002 shares of Common Stock remain reserved for future issuance and 10,000 shares will not vest under this June 2011 grant.
During the December 31, 2011 quarter, the Company announced that Steven D. Barnhart had been elected Lead Independent Director by the Company’s independent directors. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors recommended, and the Board approved, that Mr. Barnhart receive compensation of $40,000 per year for acting as the lead independent director to be effective from and after the date of his appointment. Such compensation may be paid in shares of the Company rather than cash if such shares are available and subject to an appropriate agreement between Mr. Barnhart and the Company. The Company issued to Mr. Barnhart 19,175 shares of common stock attributable to his service as Lead Independent Director during the year ended June 30, 2012.
During March 2012, the Board of Directors accepted the recommendation of the Compensation Committee that each of the three non-employee Directors appointed to the Board in January 2012 receive a stock award of 10,000 shares of Common Stock under the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan valued at $0.94 per share. A total of 30,000 shares of Common Stock were awarded, and the shares vest as follows: 9,999 on April 1, 2012; 9,999 on April 1, 2013; and, 10,002 on April 1, 2014. . As of June 30, 2012, 9,999 shares have vested and been issued. Due to changes in the composition of the Board of Directors as approved by shareholders at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders on June 28, 2012, as of June 30, 2012, 13,334 shares of Common Stock remain reserved for future issuance and 6,667 shares will not vest under this March 2012 grant.
In April 2012 a Director elected to receive compensation for service on the Company’s Board of Directors in Common Stock of the Company. For the year ended June 20, 2012, the Company issued 2,299 shares of Common Stock and recorded $3,333 of expense for this director compensation.

STOCK OPTIONS

The Company estimates the grant date fair value of the stock options it grants using a Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company’s assumption for expected volatility is based on its historical volatility data related to market trading of its own common stock. The Company bases its assumptions for expected life of the new stock option grants on the life of the option granted, and if relevant, its analysis of the historical exercise patterns of its stock options. The dividend yield assumption is based on dividends expected to be paid over the expected life of the stock option. The risk-free interest rate assumption is determined by using the U.S. Treasury rates of the same period as the expected option term of each stock option. There were no options granted during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

  Year ended  Year ended 
  June 30, 2015  June 30, 2014 
Expected volatility 78-79% 79%
Expected life  7 years   7 years 
Expected dividends 0.00% 0.00%
Risk-free interest rate 1.59-2.04% 2.22%

The 2014 Stock Option Incentive Plan was approved in June 2014 therefore there was no stock based compensation expense related to stock options for the years ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2014. Stock based compensation related to stock options for the year ended June 30, 2015 was $370,435. Unrecognized compensation related to stock option grants as of June 30, 2015 was $297,202.

12. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS AND OPTIONS (CONTINUED)
In

On May 12, 2010, in conjunction with an October 17, 2007 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 17,532 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at $7.70 per share at any time through October 17, 2012 to the broker dealer who acted as the exclusive placement agent in the transaction. As of June 30, 2012 no warrants have been exercised under this agreement.

In connection with a Securities Purchase Agreement with S.A.C. Capital Associates, LLC (“SAC”) entered into by the Company on March 14, 2007, the Company issued warrants to purchase 833,333 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at $6.40 per share. The warrant provided that if the Company would issue securities in the future at a purchase price that is less than the exercise price of the warrant, then the exercise price of the warrant would be reduced to such lower purchase price, provided, however, that such exercise price can never be lower than $5.90 which was the closing bid price of our shares on the day prior to the sale of our securities to SAC. The warrant also provides that in the event we issue securities at a purchase price less than the exercise price of the warrant, the number of shares issuable under the warrant shall be increased by that number of shares determined by multiplying the exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares issuable under the warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the new exercise price of the warrant (which can never be less than $5.90). Under this formula, the maximum number shares would be issuable under the warrant would be 903,955. As of June 30, 2009, the original warrants to purchase 833,333 shares of Common Stock at $6.40 per share had changed to warrants to purchase 903,955 shares of Common Stock at $5.90 per share. In addition, for a period of five years, SAC has been granted the pre-emptive right to purchase that number of securities being offered for sale by the Company in order to maintain SAC’s pro-rata ownership of the Common Stock of the Company following the issuance of any such securities by the Company. The warrants are exercisable at any time through September 14, 2013 to the extent that such exercise would not result in the beneficial ownership by SAC and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the number of shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares upon exercise of the warrants. As of June 30, 2012 no warrants have been exercised under this agreement.
The warrant contains a provision that if a Fundamental Transaction occurs, notably a change in control, within ninety days of the Fundamental Transaction the warrant holder may require the Company to pay the Black-Scholes calculated value of the then unexercised warrant to the warrant holder in cash. The fair value of the 903,955 warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes model and applying an estimated fair value adjustment related to warrant exercise restrictions, and the Company recorded a warrant liability in its Consolidated Balance Sheet of $1,126 and $93,624 at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively (see Note 8).

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

The principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012.2015. Based on this evaluation, they conclude that because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below, the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 isare recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 isare accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Notwithstanding the material weakness discussed below, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

(b) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting.

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process effectedaffected by the Company’s management to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

In designing and evaluating our disclosureinternal controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosureinternal controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only a reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosureinternal controls and procedures are met.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2012.2015. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission inCommission’s 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on its assessment, management believes that, asidentified deficiencies in both the design and operating effectiveness of June 30, 2012, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which when aggregated, represent a material weakness in internal control. The most significant of these was the process over the reconcilement, analysis and management oversight of certain customer accounts receivable balances related to customer processing and service fees. The procedures in place did not identify a large number of small balance accounts that may be uncollectible and were not appropriately dispositioned, collected, remediated, reserved-for and/or written-off. As a result, the Company changed its June 30, 2015 financial results included in its September 10, 2015 press release by increasing its bad debt reserve by approximately $450,000, resulting in an after-tax charge of approximately $270,000 relating to these customer accounts receivable. A material weakness is effective.

a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of this material weakness, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015. 

The Company’s internal controls over financial reporting with respect to the reconcilement, analysis and management oversight of certain customer accounts receivable balances are being evaluated and will be adjusted appropriately and remediated as soon as is practical.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no changes during the quarter ended June 30, 20122015 in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.reporting except those reported in section 9 A (b) above.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This Compensation Discussion Andand Analysis

From July 1, 2009, provides information about our compensation program for our named executive officers as of June 30, 2015 (collectively, the “named executive officers”): Stephen P. Herbert- Chairman and through October 2009, ourChief Executive Officer; David M. DeMedio- Chief Financial Officer; Michael Lawlor-Senior Vice President of Sales and Business Development; and Maeve Duska- Senior Vice President of Marketing.

Fiscal Year 2015 Business Highlights

The Compensation Committee consistedhas developed a compensation policy that is designed to attract and retain key executives responsible for the Company’s success and motivate management to enhance long-term shareholder value.

Fiscal year 2015 financial highlights, compared to the prior year, included:

·37% increase in total revenues to $58.1 million;
·22% increase in license and transaction fee revenues to $43.6 million;
·115% increase in equipment sale revenues to $14.4 million primarily attributable to the QuickStart program which was reintroduced in September 2014;
·Total connections to the Company’s cashless payment and telemetry service, ePort Connect®, grew by 57% to 333,000; and
·Year-end cash position of $11.4 million as compared to $9.1 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year.

Notwithstanding the substantial progress made by the Company during the 2015 fiscal year, the Company did not achieve all of Steven Katz and William Van Alen, Jr. Effective October 2009, our Compensation Committee consisted of Mr. Katz, Mr. Van Alen and Jack Price. Effective February 2010, our Compensation Committee consisted of Mr. Katz, Mr. Price and Peter Michel. Effective May 2010 and through June 28, 2011, our Compensation Committee was comprised of Jack Price, Steven Barnhart, and Peter Michel. Effective June 28, 2011, and through July 24, 2012,the target goals established by the Compensation Committee consistedfor compensation of Messrs. Priceour executive officers under the Fiscal Year 2015 Short-Term Incentive Plan (“2015 STI Plan”) and Barnhart. From July 24, 2012Fiscal Year 2015 Long-Term Incentive Performance Share Plan (“2015 LTI Stock Plan”). When the target goals were established, the Committee believed that the attainment of the target goals would represent a significant achievement for management and through the date of this Form 10-K, thewere designed to stretch individual and corporate performance.

Our 2015 Compensation Committee consisted of Messrs. Price, Barnhart, PetitoGoals and Moschner.

Objectives

The Compensation Committee is responsible for annually reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval the corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation and compensation changes forof the executive officers of the Company.Company, evaluating the executive officers’ performance in light of those goals and objectives, and recommending for approval to the Board the executive officers’ compensation levels based on this evaluation. The compensation of the two other employees named in the Summary Compensation Table isMr. Lawlor and Ms. Duska was determined by our Chief Executive Officer in consultation with the executive officers.Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer assistsassisted the Committee in determiningestablishing the compensation of allour other executive officers and the other executive officers do not have a role in determining their own compensation.officer, David DeMedio. Our Chief Executive Officer regularly provides information to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee considers each component of executive compensation in light of total compensation. In considering adjustments to the total compensation of the executive officers, the Compensation Committee also considers the value of previousChief Executive Officer is not present during voting or deliberations on his compensation. The Compensation Committee has, from time to time, retained aan independent compensation consultant, Buck Consultants, LLC, as deemed necessary to assist the Committee to makein making appropriate recommendations regarding our executive officer’sofficers’ compensation.

We have developed a compensation policy that is designed to attract and retain key executives responsible for our success and motivate management to enhance long-term shareholder value. The Compensation Committee believes that compensation of the Company’s executive officers should encourage creation of shareholder value and achievement of strategic corporate objectives, and the Committee seeks to align the interests of the Company’s shareholders and management by integrating compensation with the Company’s annual and long-term corporate and financial objectives. The Compensation Committee also ties a significant portion of each executive officer’s compensation to key operational and financial goals and performance.

We have also designed and implemented our compensation package in order to be competitive with other companies in our peer group, as compiled by our compensation consultant, and to motivate and retain our executive officers. Our compensation package also takes into account individual responsibilities and performance.

Certain elements of our compensation reflect different compensation objectives. For example, as base salaries are generally fixed in advance of the year in which the compensation will be earned, the Committee believes that it is appropriate to determine base salaries with a focus on similarly situated officers at comparable peer group companies while also having them reflect the officer’s performance. On the other hand, annual bonuses and long-term incentives are better able to reflect the Company’s performance as measured by total number of connections, total revenues, non-GAAP net income, adjusted EBIDTA, and cash generated from operations. In addition, annual bonuses and long-term incentive awards, including the performance goals they are based on, help us achieve our goal of retaining executives, and motivating executive officers to increase shareholder value. The other elements of compensation reflect the Committee’s and Board’s philosophy that personal benefits, including retirement and health benefits, should be available to all employees on a non-discriminatory basis.

Our Executive Compensation Practices

Our compensation program for our executive officers features many commonly used “best practices” including:

·Pay-for-performance. A substantial part of our executive officer’s pay is, in our view, performance based. For the 2015 fiscal year, our Chief Executive Officer had approximately 62% of his total target compensation tied to performance while our Chief Financial Officer had approximately 55% of his total target compensation tied to performance.
·Stretch performance goals. Our performance target goals under our 2015 STI Plan and 2015 LTI Stock Plan are designed to stretch individual and organizational performance in order to receive target payouts.

35

·Capped payouts under incentive plans. Both our long-term and short-term bonus programs have maximum payout amounts in order to discourage excessive risk taking.
·Stock ownership guidelines. We have significant ownership guidelines. Our Chief Executive Officer is required to hold common stock with a value equal to a multiple of three times his base salary and our Chief Financial Officer is required to hold common stock with a value equal to one time his base salary.
·No Tax Gross-Up Provisions. Our compensation program does not include any excise tax gross-up provisions with respect to payments contingent upon a change of control.
·Limited perquisites for our executives. Perquisites are not a significant portion of our executive officers’ compensation, representing 1% of Mr. Herbert’s and 1% of Mr. DeMedio’s total target compensation.
·Independent compensation consultant. The Committee has from time to time retained an independent compensation consultant, Buck Consultants, LLC, to review the executive compensation programs and practices.
·No payment on change of control without a “double trigger”. Payments under our employment agreements require two events for vesting – both the change of control and a “good reason” for termination of employment.
·No repricing of underwater options. Our stock option incentive plan does not permit repricing or the exchange of underwater stock options without shareholder approval.

Pay-for-Performance Review

Pay-for-performance is an important component of our compensation philosophy and is evident in the structure of our compensation program. Our compensation approach is designed to motivate our executive officers to substantially contribute to the Company’s long-term sustainable growth. Our pay-for-performance approach provides that a large portion of our executive officers’ total compensation should be in the form of short-term and long-term incentive awards with performance hurdles designed to stretch individual and organizational performance.

Reinforcing pay-for-performance is a significant underpinning of our compensation program. During the 2015 fiscal year, a total of 62% of Mr. Herbert’s and 55% of Mr. DeMedio’s total target compensation was in the form of performance-based variable compensation designed to motivate them to deliver strong business performance and create shareholder value. These compensation elements were dependent upon the Company’s achievement of pre-established financial and other business goals recommended by the Committee as well as individual goals established by the Committee or consisted of stock option awards which are inherently performance based as they only deliver value if the stock price increases. All stock options awarded by the Committee are exercisable at the closing share price on the date of the grant. Based on actual results, the annual variable compensation amount and the ultimate value of the equity compensation awards could have been significantly reduced if the Company or management did not perform.

For fiscal year 2015, the targeted aggregate compensation of our named executive officers consisted of the following components expressed as a percentage of total compensation:

The long-term incentive compensation in the above table does not reflect the one-time awards to Mr. Herbert of non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 150,000 shares, to Mr. DeMedio of non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 90,000 shares, to Mr. Lawlor of incentive stock options to purchase up to 25,000 shares, or to Ms. Duska of incentive stock options to purchase up to 25,000 shares. The foregoing awards are, however, reflected in the table set forth below as long-term incentive compensation. The long-term incentive compensation in the above table and in the table set forth below each reflect the awards to Mr. Herbert of incentive stock options to purchase up to 55,555 shares and to Mr. DeMedio of incentive stock options to purchase up to 33,333 shares.

For fiscal year 2015, the aggregate compensation actually paid or awarded to our named executive officers consisted of the following components expressed as a percentage of total compensation:

Peer Group Analysis

In July 2014, the Company obtained an updated analysis from Buck Consultants, LLC which contained a new peer group and updated the compensation analysis that had been previously performed. Buck Consultants, LLC assembled a peer group of 15 companies that it deemed comparable to the Company on the basis of size, market capitalization, industry, or financial performance. The peer group consisted of:

36

·Clearfield, Inc.·Netsol Technologies, Inc.·Procera Networks, Inc.
·Immersion Corp.·Local Corp.·Tangoe, Inc.
·Digimarc Corp.·Numerex Corp.·Transact Technologies, Inc.
·Jive Software, Inc.·Onvia, Inc.·Westell Technologies, Inc.
·LGL Group, Inc.·Planar Systems, Inc.·Planet Payment, Inc.

When making compensation decisions, the Committee reviews the aggregate target compensation paid to an executive officer relative to the compensation paid to similarly situated executives, to the extent available, at our peer companies. For fiscal year 2015, the Committee recommended a compensation program for our executive officers consisting of target level compensation approximately equal to the 50th percentile for similarly situated officers at the peer group companies compiled by Buck Consultants.

Elements of Compensation

This section describes the various elements of our compensation program for our named executive officers during the 2015 fiscal year. The components of compensation reflected in our named executive officers’ compensation program are set forth in the following table:

ElementKey CharacteristicsWhy We Pay this ElementHow We Determine the Amount
Base SalaryFixed compensation component payable in cash. Reviewed annually and adjusted when appropriate.Provide a base level of competitive cash compensation for executive talent.Experience, job scope, peer group, and individual performance.
Annual BonusVariable compensation component payable in cash or stock based on performance as compared to annually-established company and/or individual performance goals.Motivate and reward executives for performance on key operational, financial and personal measures during the year.Organizational and individual performance, with actual payouts based on the extent to which performance goals are satisfied.
Long Term IncentivesVariable compensation component payable in restricted stock or stock options.

Alignment of long term interests of management and shareholders.

Retention of executive talent.

Organizational and individual performance, with actual awards based on the extent to which goals are satisfied.
Perquisites and Other Personal BenefitsFixed compensation component to provide basic competitive benefits.Provide a base level of competitive compensation for executive talent.Periodic review of benefits provided generally to all employees.

Base Salary

Base salary is the fixed component of our named executive officers’ annual cash compensation and is set with the goal of attracting talented executives and adequately compensating and rewarding them for services rendered during the fiscal year. The Compensation Committee reviews our executive officers’ base salary on an annual basis.

The base salaries of each of our executive officers reflect the individual’s level of responsibility and performance. In recommending base salaries of our executive officers to the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee also considers changes in duties and responsibilities, our business and financial results, and its knowledge of base salaries paid to executive officers of our peer group. The base salaries of each of Ms. Duska and Mr. Lawlor were established by our Chief Executive Officer after discussions with each employee.

None of our named executive officer’s base salaries were increased during the 2015 fiscal year.

Annual Bonus

Performance-based annual bonuses are based on each named executive officer’s achievement of performance goals. Annual bonuses are intended to provide officers with an opportunity to receive additional cash compensation based on their individual performance and Company results, including the achievement of pre-determined Company and/or individual performance goals. Performance-based bonuses are included in the compensation package because they incentivize our named executive officers, in any particular year, to pursue particular objectives that are consistent with the overall goals and strategic direction that the Board has set for the Company for that year.

The Committee believes that the annual performance-based bonus reinforces the pay-for-performance nature of our compensation program.

Fiscal Year 2015 Short-Term Incentive Plan

At the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors adopted the 2015 STI Plan covering Messrs. Herbert and DeMedio. Pursuant to the 2015 STI Plan, each executive officer would earn a cash bonus in the event that the Company achieved during the 2015 fiscal year certain annual financial goals (80% weighting) and certain annual specific performance goals relating to the executive officer which were established by the Compensation Committee (20% weighting). The annual financial goals are total revenues (30% weighting), cash generated from operations (30% weighting), and non-GAAP net income (40% weighting). Assuming the minimum threshold target goal would be achieved for a particular metric, the amount of the cash bonus to be earned would be determined on a pro rata basis, provided that the bonus would not exceed the maximum distinguished award for that metric.

37

The individual performance goals established by the Committee for Mr. Herbert included developing a long-term financial model, implementing a management reorganization plan to support growth of the Company, and continuing to evolve enterprise risk management. The individual performance goals established by the Committee for Mr. DeMedio included developing a long-term financial model, securing QuickStart funding sources to support the growth of the Company, and continuing to evolve enterprise risk management.

The Committee set the cash bonus opportunity for each executive officer as a percentage of his respective annual base salary as set forth in the following table.

Named Executive Officer Threshold
Performance
  Target
Performance
  Distinguished
Performance
 
          
Stephen P. Herbert  -   40%  80%
             
David M. DeMedio  -   25%  50%

Below were the threshold, target and distinguished cash bonus award target opportunities for our executive officers:

Named Executive Officer Threshold
Performance
  Target
Performance
  Distinguished
Performance
 
          
Stephen P. Herbert $-  $136,491  $272,982 
             
David M. DeMedio $-  $59,469  $118,938 

Mr. Herbert earned a cash bonus of $101,732, representing 29.8% of his base salary, and Mr. DeMedio earned a cash bonus of $31,242 representing 13.1% of his base salary, under the 2015 STI Plan. The Committee determined that Mr. Herbert had achieved the individual maximum distinguished performance goals established by the Committee (200%) and Mr. DeMedio had achieved 90% of the individual target performance goals established by the Committee. Based on the actual performance of the Company during the 2015 fiscal year, the minimum threshold performance targets established under the 2015 STI Plan were not met for operating cash and non-GAAP net income. Revenues for the fiscal year were in excess of the target goal but less than the maximum distinguished target goal.

The cash bonuses were paid to the executive officers in September 2015.

Other Named Executive Officers’ Cash Bonus

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, the cash bonuses earned by Mr. Lawlor and Ms. Duska were based upon the attainment of financial target goals by the Company relating to connections (35% weighting), revenues (15% weighting), non-GAAP net income (25% weighting), and adjusted EBITDA (25% weighting). Based on the actual performance of the Company during the 2015 fiscal year, the minimum threshold performance targets were not met for non-GAAP net income and adjusted EBITDA. Connections for the fiscal year were in excess of the minimum threshold target goal but less than the target goal and revenues were in excess of the target goal but less than the maximum distinguished target goal. The cash bonuses were paid to the officers in September 2015.

Duska Stock Bonus

During July 2014, and subsequent to the end of the 2014 fiscal year, Ms. Duska was awarded 24,155 vested shares of common stock as a one-time bonus in recognition of her performance during the 2014 fiscal year. Although the Compensation Committee considered this bonus to be part of Ms. Duska's fiscal year 2014 compensation and is not considered to be part of her compensation for the 2015 fiscal year under this Compensation Discussion and Analysis, this stock award is reflected as required by applicable disclosure regulations in the fiscal year 2015 compensation tables set forth below.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

As described above, the Committee believes that a substantial portion of each executive officer’s compensation should be in the form of long-term incentive compensation in order to further align the interests of our executive officers and shareholders.

Fiscal Year 2015 Long-Term Incentive Performance Share Plan

At the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors adopted the 2015 LTI Stock Plan covering Messrs. Herbert and DeMedio. Under the 2015 LTI Stock Plan, each executive officer would be awarded shares of common stock in the event that certain metrics relating to the Company’s 2015 fiscal year would result in specified ranges of year-over-year percentage growth. The metrics are total number of connections as of June 30, 2015 as compared to total number of connections as of June 30, 2014 (50% weighting), and adjusted EBITDA earned during the 2015 fiscal year as compared to adjusted EBITDA earned during the 2014 fiscal year (50% weighting). The shares awarded under the 2015 LTI Stock Plan would vest as follows: one-third on the date of issuance; one-third on the first anniversary of the date of issuance; and one-third on the second anniversary of the date of issuance.

At the time of the establishment of the 2015 LTI Stock Plan, the Compensation Committee believed that the attainment of the target goals under the 2015 LTI Stock Plan would represent a significant achievement for management, and were designed to stretch the Company’s and management’s performance during the fiscal year.

The Committee established target long-term award levels for each executive officer as a percentage of his respective annual base salary as indicated in the table set forth below.

Named Executive Officer Threshold
Performance
  Target
Performance
  Distinguished
Performance
 
          
Stephen P. Herbert  -   100%  200%
             
David M. DeMedio  -   75%  150%

The table set forth below lists the value of the shares that would have been awarded to the executive officers under the 2015 LTI Stock Plan if all of the minimum threshold performance goals had been achieved, if all of the target performance goals had been achieved, and if all of the distinguished performance goals had been achieved. Assuming the minimum threshold target goal was achieved for a particular metric, the number of shares to be awarded for that metric was required to be determined on a pro-rata basis, provided that the award could not exceed the maximum distinguished award for that metric.

Stephen P. Herbert $-  $341,227  $682,454 
             
David M. DeMedio $-  $179,653  $359,306 

Based on the actual performance of the Company during the 2015 fiscal year, the minimum threshold performance target established under the 2015 LTI Stock Plan was not met for adjusted EBITDA. Connections for the fiscal year were in excess of the minimum threshold but less than the target goal. Consequently, the stock award to each executive officer under the 2015 LTI Stock Plan was as follows:

  Number of
Shares
  Value of Shares
as of June 30,
2015
 
       
Stephen P. Herbert  42,678  $115,230 
         
David M. DeMedio  22,314  $60,247 

The shares awarded to Mr. Herbert had a value equal to 33.8% of his annual base salary, and the shares awarded to Mr. DeMedio had a value equal to 25.3% of his annual base salary. The shares were issued (subject to the vesting requirements) to the executive officers in September 2015.

Stock Option Awards

During August 2014, Mr. Herbert was awarded incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to purchase up to 55,555 shares at an exercise price of $1.80 per share. The options vest on September 1, 2015, and expire if not exercised prior to September 1, 2021. Mr. Herbert was also awarded non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 150,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.80 per share. The options vest as follows: one-third on September 1, 2015; one-third on September 1, 2016; and one-third on September 1, 2017. The options expire if not exercised prior to September 1, 2021.     

During August 2014, Mr. DeMedio was awarded incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code to purchase up to 33,333 shares at an exercise price of $1.80 per share. The options vest on September 1, 2015, and expire if not exercised prior to September 1, 2021. Mr. DeMedio was also awarded non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 90,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.80 per share. The options vest as follows: one-third on September 1, 2015; one-third on September 1, 2016; and one-third on September 1, 2017. The options expire if not exercised prior to September 1, 2021.

During April 2015, Mr. Lawlor was awarded incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code to purchase up to 25,000 shares at an exercise price of $2.75 per share. The options vest as follows: one-third on April 8, 2016; one-third on April 8, 2017; and one-third on April 8, 2018. The options expire if not exercised prior to April 8, 2022.

During January 2015, Ms. Duska was awarded incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code to purchase up to 25,000 shares at an exercise price of $1.62 per share. The options vest as follows: one-third on January 2, 2016; one-third on January 2, 2017; and one-third on January 2, 2018. The options expire if not exercised prior to January 2, 2022.

Perquisites and Other Benefits

Our named executive officers were entitled to the health care coverage, group insurance and other employee benefits provided to all of our other employees.

Post-Termination Compensation

As set forth in his employment agreement, upon the termination of Mr. Herbert’s employment under certain circumstances, including termination by the Company without cause or by a notice of non-renewal of the employment agreement, or under certain circumstances following a change of control of the Company, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. Herbert a lump sum amount equal to two times his annual base salary and all restricted stock awards or stock options would become vested as of the date of termination.

As set forth in his employment agreement, upon the termination of Mr. DeMedio’s employment under certain circumstances, including termination by the Company without cause or by a notice of non-renewal of the employment agreement, or under certain circumstances following a change of control of the Company, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. DeMedio a lump sum amount equal to one times his annual base salary and all restricted stock awards or stock options would become vested as of the date of termination.

We believe that these provisions are an important component of each executive’s employment arrangement and will help to secure the continued employment and dedication of our executive officers, notwithstanding any concern that they might have at such time regarding their own continued employment, prior to or following a change of control.

The Committee notes that there would be no payments to our executive officers upon a change of control without a “double trigger”. Payments under our employment agreements require two events for vesting – both the change of control and a “good reason” for termination of employment.

Additional information regarding what would have been received by our executive officers had termination occurred on June 30, 2015 is found under the heading “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control” on page 43 of this Form 10-K.

Stock Ownership Policy

We believe that providing our executive officers who have responsibility for the Company’s management and growth with an opportunity to increase their ownership of Company stockshares aligns the interests of the executive officers with those of the shareholders. In furtherance thereof, in April 2011, the Board approvedOur Stock Ownership Guidelines that were recommended by the Compensation Committee. These guidelines provide that the Chief Executive Officer should own shares with a value of at least three times his annual base salary, and the Chief Financial Officer should own shares with a value of at least one time his annual base salary. The guidelines provide that the executive officers have a period of five years to attain these levels of ownership.

In order to be competitive with compensation offered by other companies in our custom peer group, as compiled by our compensation consultant, and to motivate and retain executive officers, the Company intends to offer a total compensation package competitive with other companies in our custom peer group as well as take into account individual responsibilities and performance. The annual compensation package for our executives primarily consists of all or some of the following:
●           a base salary;
●           stock options;
●           restricted stock awards;
●           cash and stock bonuses;
●           long-term stock incentive awards; and
●           other benefits.
Base Salary
Base salary is the fixed component of our executive officer’s annual cash compensation and is set with the goal of attracting talented executives and adequately compensating and rewarding them for services rendered during the fiscal year. Our executive officers’ employment agreements specify the level of salary to which the officer is entitled, subject to review of our board of directors or Compensation Committee from time to time. During November 2011, and in connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer, we recommended that Mr. Herbert’s existing base salary be increased by an amount equal to the annual costs to the Company of the car allowance and supplemental long-term disability insurance coverage which had previously been provided to him and which had been discontinued. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that Mr. Herbert’s base salary be increased by an amount equal to the annual premiums being paid by the Company for a life insurance policy on Mr. Herbert’s life that was being discontinued. Effective July 1, 2011, we increased Mr. DeMedio’s base salary approximately eighteen percent in order for his base salary to more competitive with the base salaries of chief financial officers of the companies in our custom peer group as compiled by our compensation consultant. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that Mr. DeMedio’s base salary be increased by the annual amount of the car allowance that was being discontinued. The base salaries of our executive officers reflect the individual’s level of responsibility and performance. In recommending base salaries of our executive officers to the board of directors, the Compensation Committee also considers changes in duties and responsibilities, our business and financial results, the relationship among base salaries paid to others within our Company, and its knowledge of base salaries paid to executive officers of our custom peer group. The base salaries for each of Messrs. Sagady and Lawlor are set forth in their respective employment agreements, and were established by our Chief Executive Officer after discussions with each employee.
45

As set forth in his employment agreement, upon the termination of Mr. Herbert’s employment under certain circumstances, including termination by him with good cause or by the Company without cause or by a notice of non-renewal of the employment agreement, the Company has agreed to pay him a lump sum amount equal to two times his annual base salary. We believe that these provisions are an important component of the executive’s employment arrangements.
Stock Options
Stock options serveEach executive officer has until April 2016 to ensure that executive management is properly focused on shareholder value. Stock options align management incentives with shareholder’s objectives because options granted at fair value have value only if the stock price increases over time. A vesting schedule also keeps the executives focused on long term performance and not short term gains. No stock options have been issued to our executive officers or employees during the 2010, 2011, or 2012 fiscal years.
Restricted Stock Awards
During the 2010, 2011, and 2012 fiscal years, the Compensation Committee has recommended that restricted stock be awarded to our executive officers. These restricted stock awards become vested over a period of time, and are issued under the Company’s incentive stock compensation plans. During September 2009, and in conjunctioncomply with the executionpolicy.

Our Stock Ownership Guidelines provide that each non-employee director should own shares of their amended and restated employment agreements, we awarded an aggregatecommon stock with a value of 39,000 shares under our stock incentive plan as a bonus to Messrs. Jensen and Herbert. During April 2011, and based upon past performance and in consideration ofat least five times his or her annual cash retainer. For this purpose, the extension of their employment agreements, we awarded an aggregate of 225,000 shares under our stock incentive plan to our executive officers. During September 2011, we issued 150,000 shares under our incentive stock plan to Mr. Jensen and 100,000 shares under our incentive stock plan to Mr. Herbert in exchangeannual retainer shall include the annual retainer for service on the elimination of certain provisions in their employment agreements requiring the Company to pay excise taxes and related tax gross up payments in connection with excess parachute payments in the event of a change in control of the Company. The Compensation CommitteeBoard as well as the annual retainer for serving on one (but not more than one) Committee of the Board for a total share value of at least $150,000. Each director has until June 30, 2016 to comply with the stock ownership requirements, and future directors would have five years to comply.

For purposes of these guidelines, “shares” include shares owned by the executive officer or director or by such person’s immediate family members residing in the same household and include non-vested restricted stock awards held by the executive officer or non-employee director.

Effect Of 2015 Say-On-Pay Vote

At the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, over 88% of the votes cast on the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers believed that these provisions were no longer appropriate given current compensation practices and represented good corporate governance. During September 2011, we issued 25,000 shares under our incentive stock plan to Mr. DeMedio as a bonus for performance during the last six monthsin favor of the 2011 fiscal year.

On September 5, 2012,Company’s executive compensation disclosed in the proxy statement. The Compensation Committee considered the vote, and even though the results convey strong shareholder support for the Company’s executive compensation programs and the Compensation Committee’s decisions, the Committee determined that it was in recognition of his successful leadershipthe best interest of the Company following the separation of the former CEO as well as his successful leadership in connection with the implementation of the Companys financial turnaround plan, the Board approvedand its shareholders to continue to evaluate our recommendationexecutive compensation programs and, awarded Mr. Herbert 71,429 shares of unvested common stock under our stock incentive plan having a value of $100,000. These shares would become vested upon the attainment of various closing prices for thirty consecutive trading days at any time during  the three year period following the date of the award. One-third of the shares would become vested if the closing price would be at least $2.00 per share, one-third of the shares would become vested if the closing price would be at least $2.25 per share, and one-third of the shares would become vested if the closing price would be at least $2.50 per share.
Cash and Stock Bonuses
In additionappropriate, to base salary, we may award variable cash bonus awards to our executives as well as shares available under our incentive stock compensation plans.
On September 15, 2011, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the board of directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2012 Performance Share Plan (the “2012 Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2012 Plan, each executive officer will be awarded common stock in the event the Company achieves target goals during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 relating to the total number of connections, total revenues, operating expenses, and operating earnings. Operating earnings is defined as earnings before interest and taxes (after bonus accruals and stock awards) and before non-operating gains or losses. The number of eligible shares to be awarded to the executives is based upon the following weightings: 30% by the total number of connections; 30% by total revenues; 10% by operating expenses; and 30% by operating earnings. No awards would be made under the 2012 Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals have been achieved, or (ii) if operating earnings for the 2012 fiscal year are not equal or better than those during the 2011 fiscal year.
If all of the target performance goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded the following number of shares: Mr. Herbert – 120,000 shares; and Mr. DeMedio – 50,000 shares. If all of the minimum, threshold performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded 20% of the number of shares which would have been awarded to them if all of the target performance goals had been achieved. If all of the maximum, distinguished performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded 150% of the number of shares which would have been awarded to them if all of the target performance goals had been achieved. If the actual results for the fiscal year are less than the target goals (but greater than the minimum, threshold performance target goals), each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata portion of the number of eligible shares. 
46

Based upon the financial results of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the minimum threshold targets under the 2012 Plan relating to revenues and connections were met. As a result of the approximately $2.2 million of expenses incurred in connection with the proxy contest and related litigation and the $975,000 of expenses incurred in connection with the separation of the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, operating earnings were less than those for the 2011 fiscal year and the minimum threshold targets under the 2012 Plan relating to operating expenses and operating earnings were not met.
On September 5, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the recommendation of the Compensation Committee that the expenses incurred in connection with the proxy contest and related litigation and the separation of the former Chief Executive Officer of the Company should be excluded from the operating expenses and operating earnings metrics under the 2012 Plan. The Compensation Committee and the Board did not believe that costs related to these unusual non-operating events should be included for purposes of evaluating operating performance under the 2012 Plan.
On this adjusted basis, operating earnings were better than those of the 2011 fiscal year and met the target goal under the 2012 Plan, and operating expenses met the maximum, distinguished target goal under the 2012 Plan, resulting in the award of 136,285 shares, as follows: Stephen P. Herbert, Chief Executive Officer- 96,201 shares; and David M. DeMedio, Chief Financial Officer- 40,084 shares.
Mr. Herberts November 30, 2011 employment agreement with the Company provides that he will receive a cash bonus of $30,000 if the Company would achieve the minimum threshold target goals under the 2012 Plan, of $50,000 if the Company would achieve the target goals under the 2012 Plan, and of $75,000 if the Company would achieve the maximum distinguished target goals under the 2012 Plan. Based on performance against the 2012 Plan, on the adjusted basis approved by the Board of Directors described above, Mr. Herbert earned a cash bonus of $40,000.
On September 5, 2012, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the board of directors adopted the Fiscal Year 2013 Performance Share Plan (the “2013 Plan”) covering the Company’s executive officers. Under the 2013 Plan, each executive officer would be awarded common stock in the event the Company achievesstrengthen certain performance goals during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2013. The metrics under the 2013 Plan as well as the relative weightingsaspects of these metrics are identical to those originally set forth in the 2012 Plan. No awards would be made under the 2013 Plan if either (i) none of the minimum, threshold performance target goals have been achieved, or (ii) if operating earnings for the 2013 fiscal year are not equal or better than those during the 2012 fiscal year.
If all of the target goals are achieved under the 2013 Plan, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $275,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $100,000 shares. If all of the minimum, threshold performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $75,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $25,000. If all of the maximum, distinguished performance target goals are achieved, the executive officers would be awarded shares having the following value: Mr. Herbert – $550,000; and Mr. DeMedio – $200,000. If the actual results for the fiscal year are less than the target goals (but greater than the minimum, threshold performance target goals), each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata number of shares and if actual results are greater than the maximum, distinguished goals, each executive would be awarded a greater pro rata number of shares. The Compensation Committee believes that the attainment of the target goals under the 2013 Plan would represent a significant achievement for management.
On September 5, 2012, the Board also approved our recommendation that Mr. Herbert would earn a cash bonus of $30,000 if he achieved certain minimum threshold target goals during the 2013 fiscal year, of $50,000 if he achieved target goals, and of $75,000 if he achieved maximum distinguished target goals during the 2013 fiscal year. The specific strategic performance goals to be utilized for purposes of Mr. Herbert’s bonus plan are to be established by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board.
Long-Term Stock Incentive Awards
During February 2007, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the board of directors adopted the LTIP Program covering the Company’s executive officers – Messrs. Jensen, Herbert and DeMedio. The purpose of the LTIP Program was to ensure continuity of the Company’s executives, encourage stock ownership by the executives, align the interests of the executives with those of the shareholders, and provide incentives and rewards to the executives who are largely responsible for the management and growth of the Company. The last fiscal year covered by the LTIP Program was the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.
Under the LTIP Program, each executive officer was awarded common stock of the Company in the event the Company achieved target goals relating to each of revenues, GP and EBITDA during each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007, June 30, 2008, and June 30, 2010. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, and excludes non-cash stock payments/awards and stock options granted to officers and members of the board of directors. During each such fiscal year, the number of eligible shares to be awarded to the executive was based upon the following weightings: 40% of eligible shares was determined by revenues; 30% of eligible shares was determined by GP; and 30% of eligible shares was determined by EBITDA.
47

If the target goal (100%) for revenues, GP, and EBITDA was achieved by the Company during the applicable fiscal year, the executive officers would be awarded the following number of shares: Mr. Jensen – 178,570 shares; Mr. Herbert – 53,713 shares; and Mr. DeMedio – 21,664 shares.
If actual revenues, GP, or EBITDA for a particular fiscal year exceeded the target goals, each executive would be awarded additional eligible shares, up to an amount no greater than 125% of the number of eligible shares. If the actual revenues, GP, or EBITDA for a particular fiscal year were less than the target goals, each executive would be awarded a lesser pro rata portion of the number of eligible shares. If minimum target goals for revenues, GP, or EBITDA for a particular fiscal year were not achieved, no eligible shares would be awarded to each executive. 
Based upon the financial results of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, a lower than target goal (85%) relating to revenues was met and the minimum target goals relating to GP and EBITDA were not met. As a result, the Company issued to the executive officers of a total of 86,342 shares under the LTIP Program for the 2010 fiscal year, as follows: Mr. Jensen-60,716 shares; Mr. Herbert- 18,261 shares; and Mr. DeMedio- 7,365 shares.
Other Benefits
During the 2010, 2011 and 2012 fiscal years, our executive officers were entitled to the health care coverage, group insurance and other employee benefits provided to all of our employees. We have recently recommended to the Board and the Board has approved the discontinuance of some of our executive officers fringe benefits which are in excess of those generally available to the Company’s other employees. In this regard, in November 2011, Mr. Herbert’s automobile allowance was discontinued and the Company ceased paying the premiums for a supplemental long-term disability policy for Mr. Herbert over and above the existing long-term group disability plan of the Company. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that the Company discontinue payment of the premiums for a $1,500,000 face amount life insurance policy on Mr. Herbert. On September 5, 2012, the Board approved our recommendation that the Company discontinue payment of the automobile allowances for each of Messrs. DeMedio, Lawlor and Sagady. As discussed above, the base salaries of the executives were increased by an amount equal to the annual payments attributable to these discontinued fringe benefits.
As discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K, the Company has agreed to pay health insurance for a one year period following Mr. DeMedio’s termination of employment by the Company without cause.
programs.

Impact of Taxation and Accounting Considerations on Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors take into account tax and accounting consequences of the compensation program and weigh these factors when setting total compensation and determining the individual elements of any named executive officer’s compensation package.

The restricted stock and option awards to our named executive officers under our equity incentive stock plans or under the 2012 Plan or 2013 Plan provide that the executiveofficer is responsible for any withholding or payroll tax obligations incurred by the Company in connection with the award, and that the executiveofficer may satisfy any such obligations by, among other things, either the delivery to the Company of a cash payment equal to the obligations, or the assignment or transfer to the Company of shares having a value equal to the obligations, or such other method that shall be satisfactory to the Company.

In order to have any benefits payable to the executive officers under their supplemental long term disability policies not be included in their taxable income, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the premiums therefore should be included in their wages from the Company, and such a change was included in each of their September 2011 employment contract revisions. As discussed above, the supplemental long-term disability policy of Mr. Herbert was discontinued in November 2011.

The new agreement also stated that the premiums for Mr. Jensen’s supplemental long term disability policy being paid by the Company would now be included in his wages and be taxable to him. In exchange for modifying the excise tax and related gross up provisions, the Company issued an aggregate of 150,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Jensen under its stock incentive plans which vest as follows: 50,000 on the date the agreement was signed by Mr. Jensen and the Company; 50,000 on the first anniversary of the date of signing; and 50,000 on the second anniversary of the date of signing.
On September 27, 2011, the Company and Mr. Jensen also entered into a new agreement (the “Jensen Stock Agreement”) which contained the provisions relating to the issuance by the Company to Mr. Jensen of the Jensen Shares which had previously been set forth in his employment agreement. The provisions of Mr. Jensen’s prior employment agreement which required the Company to pay any excise taxes attributable to the excess parachute payments attributable to the Jensen Shares as well as the related obligation to make tax gross up payments have been retained in the Jensen Stock Agreement and continue to apply to the Jensen Shares.
