Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Nature of Operations
Description of Business
Mechanical Technology, Incorporated (MTI or the Company), a New York corporation, was incorporated in 1961. The Company’s core business is conducted through MTI Instruments, Inc. (MTI Instruments), a wholly-owned subsidiary.
MTI Instruments was incorporated in New York on March 8, 2000 and is a supplier of precision linear displacement solutions, vibration measurement and system balancing systems, and wafer inspection tools, consisting of electronic gauging instruments for position, displacement and vibration application within the industrial manufacturing/production markets, as well as the research, design and process development market; tensile stage systems for materials testing at academic and industrial research settings; and engine vibration analysis systems for both military and commercial aircraft. These tools, systems and solutions are developed for markets and applications that require the precise measurements and control of products, processes, and the development and implementation of automated manufacturing, assembly, and consistent operation of complex machinery.
LiquidityLiquidity; Going Concern
The Company has historically incurred significant losses primarily due to its past efforts to fund direct methanol fuel cell product development and commercialization programs, and hashad an accumulated deficit of approximately $119.0$120.8 million and working capital of approximately $1.7$1.3 million at September 30, 2015.2016. As of September 30, 2016, we had no debt and $20 thousand in commitments for capital expenditures.
Based on the Company’s projected cash requirements for operations and capital expenditures, its current available cash of approximately $900$886 thousand upand our projected cash flows pursuant to $2.5 million available from its existing credit facilities, current cash flow requirements and revenue and expense projections,management’s plan, management believes it will have adequate resources to fund operations and capital expenditures for the near term. If cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy operational working capital and capital expenditure requirements, the Company may be required to obtain credit facilities to fund these initiatives. Any additional financing, if required, may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at least the next twelve months.all.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. If the going concern basis were not appropriate for these financial statements, adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used.
The Company’s history of operating cash flow deficits may raise doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern and its continued existence could be dependent upon several factors, including its ability to raise revenue levels and control costs to generate positive cash flows and/or to obtain credit facilities. Obtaining credit facilities may be more difficult as a result of limited access to equity markets and the tightening of credit markets. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount of or classification of liabilities that might be necessary as a result of this uncertainty.
The Company believes that the current lack of liquidity and “going concern” opinion with respect to its audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015resulted primarily from delays in entering into a new agreement with the U.S. Air Force (as discussed in our Annual Report on Form-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 in Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”) and in an expected product order from Asia that was not received, as well as the Company’s cancellation of its existing lines of credit on March 24, 2016, as further discussed in Item 7: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in the Annual Report and this Form 10-Q. As previously reported, the Company entered into the long-anticipated contract with the U.S. Air Force on July 1, 2016, and started receiving orders thereunder soon thereafter.
On October 21, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Brookstone Partners Acquisition XXIV, LLC (Brookstone), pursuant to which on such date the Company issued and sold 3,750,000 shares of its common stock to Brookstone for an aggregate of $2,737,500. See Note 13 Subsequent Events and the Company’s Form 8-K filed on October 21, 2016 for more details related to this transaction.

6. Income Taxes
DuringThe Company’s effective income tax rate was 0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company’s effective income tax rate was 2.2% and 1.9%, respectively.2016. The projected annual effective tax rate is less than the Federal statutory rate of 34%, primarily due to permanent differences, the change in the valuation allowance and changes to estimated taxable income for 2015.2016. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014,2015, the Company’s effective income tax rate was 8.2%2.2% and 1.7%1.9%, respectively. Income tax expense was $1 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and related to the payment of prior and current year state tax expenses. Income tax expense of $13 thousand and $23 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, related to payment of prior and current year federal and state tax expenses.
The Company provides for recognition of deferred tax assets if the realization of such assets is more likely than not to occur in accordance with accounting standards that address income taxes. Significant management judgment is required in determining the period in which the reversal of a valuation allowance should occur. The Company has considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, such as historical levels of income and future forecasts of taxable income amongst other items, in determining its valuation allowance. In addition, the Company’s assessment requires us to schedule future taxable income in accordance with accounting standards that address income taxes to assess the appropriateness of a valuation allowance which further requires the exercise of significant management judgment.
TheAlthough the Company has determined that it expects to generate sufficient levels of pre-tax earnings in the future, the Company decided to realize the netre-establish a full valuation allowance at December 31, 2015 for its deferred tax assets recorded on the balance sheet at September 30, 2015. The Company has projected such pre-tax earnings utilizingassets. This decision was based upon actual results differing from those estimates used as a combination of historical and projected results, taking into consideration existing levels of permanent differences, non-deductible expense and the reversal of significant temporary differences. We project that our taxable incomebasis for the next three years is adequate to ensure the realizabilityprevious partial valuation of the $1.3 million of deferred tax assets recorded on our balance sheet at September 30, 2015. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to adjust the recorded valuation allowance, which could materially impact our financial position and results of operations. We will continue to evaluate the ability to realize our deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance on a quarterly basis.asset.
The Company believes that the accounting estimate for the valuation of deferred tax assets is a critical accounting estimate, because judgment is required in assessing the likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. The Company based the estimate of deferred tax assets and liabilities on current tax laws and rates and, in certain cases, business plans and other expectations about future outcomes. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or the Company adjusts these estimates in future periods, the Company may need to adjust the recorded valuation allowance, which could materially impact our financial position and results of operations. The valuation allowance was $17.1$18.5 million at September 30, 20152016 and $16.7 million at December 31, 2014. The Company2015.

EarningsIncome (Loss) per Share
The Company computes basic income (loss) per common share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, if any, computed by dividing income (loss) by the combination of dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under outstanding investment rights, warrants and the Company’s share-based compensation plans, and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Dilutive common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of in-the-money stock options, which are calculated based on the average share price for each period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the exercise price of a stock option, the amount of compensation cost, if any, for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of windfall tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital, if any, when the stock option is exercised are assumed to be used to repurchase shares in the current period.
Not included in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, were options to purchase 1,175,500 shares of the Company’s common stock. These potentially dilutive items were excluded because the Company incurred a loss during the period and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Not included in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution, for the three months ended September 30, 2016, were options to purchase 669,500 shares, respectively of the Company’s common stock. These potentially dilutive items were excluded even though the average market price of the common stock exceeded the exercise prices for a portion of the options because the calculation of incremental shares resulted in an anti-dilutive effect.
Not included in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, were options to purchase 939,064 shares of the Company’s common stock. These potentially dilutive items were excluded because the Company incurred a loss during the periods and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers) to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The standard is principle-basedprinciples-based and provides a five-step model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer. Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract. Step 3: Determine the transaction price. Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. This standard also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This standard, as amended, will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning in the first quarter of 2019.after December 15, 2017. This standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than calendar 2018.2017. This standard could impact the timing and amounts of revenue recognized. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 (Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern), which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and provide related footnote disclosures. This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. This standard allows for either a full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2015, the FASB issued an ASU that2015-02 (Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis), which changes the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. This standard will bebecame effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2016. The Company’s adoption of this standard had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
11
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 (Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory), which applies to inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. Under the updated guidance, an entity should measure inventory that is within scope at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory that is measured using last-in, last-out (LIFO). This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and should be applied prospectively with early adoption permitted at the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17 (Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes) as part of its ongoing simplification initiative, with the objective of reducing complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in this standard require entities that present a classified balance sheet to classify all deferred tax liabilities and assets as a noncurrent amount. This guidance does not change the offsetting requirements for deferred tax liabilities and assets, which results in the presentation of one amount on the balance sheet. Additionally, the amendments in this standard align the deferred income tax presentation with the requirements in International Accounting Standards (IAS) 1 (Presentation of Financial Statements.) This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 (Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities) the main objective of which is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information and address certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard but we do not expect the adoption of it to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Leases (Topic 842)) the main objective of which requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheet but recognize expenses on their income statement in a manner similar to current accounting requirements. This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 (Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting),which simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions. This standard addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows. This standard requires all income tax effects of awards, including excess tax benefits, to be recorded as income tax expense (or benefit) in the income statement when it arises, subject to the normal valuation allowance considerations. All tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments are required to be reported as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. The updates relating to the income tax effects of the share-based payments including the cash flow presentation must be adopted either prospectively or retrospectively. This standard also allows companies to make an accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. If an election is made, the change to recognize forfeitures as they occur must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to opening retained earnings. This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects the adoption of this standard to impact our provision for income taxes, the amount of which depends on the vesting activity of our share-based compensation awards in any given period, and to eliminate the presentation of excess tax benefits as a financing inflow on our statement of cash flows. Further, we expect to make an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures of share-based compensation awards based on an estimate, consistent with our current practice. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have any other material impacts on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing),which clarifies the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance. This standard is expected to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the guidance on identifying promised goods or services. This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
12
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15 (Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments), which clarifies the treatment of several cash flow categories. In addition, ASU 2016-15 clarifies that when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, classification will depend on the predominant source or use. This standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
13. Subsequent Events
Adoption of Rights Plan
On October 6, 2016 (the Rights Dividend Declaration Date), the Company’s Board of Directors (the Board) adopted a Section 382 rights plan (the Rights Plan) and declared a dividend distribution of one Right (as defined below) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock to shareholders of record at the close of business on October 19, 2016.
The Board adopted the Rights Plan in an effort to protect against a possible limitation on the Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs), which totaled approximately $51.0 million as of September 30, 2016. The Company may utilize these NOLs in certain circumstances to offset future U.S. taxable income and reduce its U.S. federal income tax liability, which may arise even in periods when the Company incurs an accounting loss for reporting purposes. The Company’s ability to use its NOLs, however, could be substantially limited if an “ownership change,” as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (the IRC), occurred. In general, an ownership change would occur if and when the percentage of ownership of Company stock by one or more “5-percent shareholders” (as defined under IRC Section 382) has increased by more than 50 percent at any time during the prior three years (calculated on a rolling basis). These provisions can be triggered not only by merger and acquisition activity but by normal market trading as well. The Rights Plan is designed to deter trading that would result in an ownership change that could lead to the loss of the NOLs and a resulting reduction in the Company’s value.
The Rights Plan is intended to act as a deterrent to any person (together with all affiliates and associates of such person) acquiring “beneficial ownership” (as defined in the Rights Plan) of 4.99% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock without the approval of the Board (an Acquiring Person). Shareholders who currently beneficially own 4.99% or more of the outstanding Common Stock will not be deemed to be an Acquiring Person unless they acquire one or more additional shares of Common Stock (unless upon such acquisition they do not beneficially own 4.99% or more of the Common Stock then outstanding). Pursuant to an amendment to the Rights Plan dated October 21, 2016, Brookstone and its affiliates and associates are exempt from the definition of an Acquiring Person.
On the Rights Dividend Declaration Date, the Board authorized the issuance of one right (a Right) for each outstanding share of Common Stock to the Company’s shareholders of record at the close of business on October 19, 2016, and each share of Common Stock issued thereafter and prior to the earlier of the Distribution Date (as defined below) and the expiration of the Rights. Subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Rights Plan, if the Rights become exercisable, each Right would represent the right to purchase from the Company one share of Common Stock at a purchase price of $5.00 per share (the Purchase Price), subject to adjustment.
Initial Exercisability. The Rights are not exercisable until the earlier of (i) ten days after a public announcement that a person has become an Acquiring Person or, if earlier, the date a majority of the Board becomes aware of the existence of an Acquiring Person (a Stock Acquisition Date) and (ii) ten business days (or such later date as may be determined by the Board) after the commencement of, or the first public announcement of the intent of any person to commence, a tender or exchange offer by or on behalf of a person that, if completed, would result in such person becoming an Acquiring Person. The date that the Rights become exercisable under the Rights Plan is referred to as the “Distribution Date.”
“Flip-In” Event. In the event that a person, other than a person expressly excluded under the Rights Plan, becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a Right, other than Rights that are or, under certain circumstances, were beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person (which will thereupon become void), will from and after the Distribution Date have the right to receive, upon exercise of a Right and payment of the then current Purchase Price, a number of shares of Common Stock having a market value of two times the Purchase Price (unless the transaction that gives rise to the adjustment discussed herein is a transaction discussed under “Merger, etc.” immediately below, in which case only the provisions discussed therein apply).
Merger, etc. If (i) the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction where the Company is not the surviving corporation, (ii) another entity consolidates with or merges into the Company and the Company is the surviving corporation, and in connection with such consolidation or merger all or part of the outstanding shares of Common Stock are changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other entity, cash or any other property, or (iii) the Company sells or transfers assets constituting more than 50% of its assets, cash flow or earning power,each holder of a Right will from and after the Distribution Date have the right to receive, upon exercise of a Right and payment of the then current Purchase Price, a number of shares of common stock of the acquiring entity (or equivalent) having a market value of two times the Purchase Price.

Sale of Common Stock to Brookstone Partners Acquisition XXIV, LLC
On October 21, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Brookstone, pursuant to which on such date the Company issued and sold 3,750,000 shares (the Shares) of Common Stock to Brookstone for an aggregate of $2,737,500. The Company also agreed to (i) appoint three persons designated by Brookstone to the Board, (ii) appoint one of the director designees to the Compensation Committee of the Board and one of the director designees to the Audit Committee and Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board, (iii) maintain such committee appointments, (iv) appoint one of such designated directors (or a successor named by Brookstone) to each Board committee created after October 6, 2016 and maintain such appointments, and include certain numbers of such designated directors (or successor named by Brookstone) as nominees recommended by the Board for election as directors, as long as Brookstone and its affiliates beneficially own outstanding shares of Common Stock. At any time Brookstone and its affiliates beneficially own at least 25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Company must include three such Brookstone-designated directors on its Board and as Board-recommended director nominees. At any time Brookstone and its affiliates beneficially own at least 10% but less than 25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Company must include two such Brookstone-designated directors on its Board and as Board-recommended director nominees. At any time Brookstone and its affiliates beneficially own any shares of Common Stock but less than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Company must include one such Brookstone-designated director on its Board and as a Board-recommended director nominee.
Immediately subsequent to the issuance of the Shares, Brookstone owned 41.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Also on October 21, 2016, the Company and Brookstone entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which the Company agreed, at any time after December 20, 2016 and upon the request of holders of at least 25% of the outstanding Shares, to file a registration statement under the Securities Act to register the resale of the Shares. The Company also agreed, subject to certain conditions and exclusions, to include the resale of the Shares in any registration statement that the Company files under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8) upon the request of any holder of Shares. The Registration Rights Agreement terminates on the earlier of October 21, 2021 or the date that Brookstone or any permitted assignee or successor of Brookstone owns less than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.

Recent Developments
Adoption of Shareholder Rights Plan
On October 6, 2016 (the “Rights Dividend Declaration Date”), the Company’s Board of Directors adopted a Section 382 rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) and declared a dividend distribution of one Right (as defined below) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company to shareholders of record at the close of business on October 19, 2016.
The Board adopted the Rights Plan in an effort to protect against a possible limitation on the Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”), which totaled approximately $51.0 million as of September 30, 2016. The Company may utilize these NOLs in certain circumstances to offset future U.S. taxable income and reduce its U.S. federal income tax liability, which may arise even in periods when the Company incurs an accounting loss for reporting purposes. The Company’s ability to use its NOLs, however, could be substantially limited if an ��ownership change,” as defined under Section 382 of the IRC, occurred. In general, an ownership change would occur if and when the percentage of ownership of Company stock by one or more “5-percent shareholders” (as defined under IRC Section 382) has increased by more than 50 percent at any time during the prior three years (calculated on a rolling basis). These provisions can be triggered not only by merger and acquisition activity but by normal market trading as well. The Rights Plan is designed to deter trading that would result in an ownership change that could lead to the loss of the NOLs and a resulting reduction in the Company’s value.
The Rights Plan is intended to act as a deterrent to any person (together with all affiliates and associates of such person) acquiring “beneficial ownership” (as defined in the Rights Plan) of 4.99% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock without the approval of the Board (an “Acquiring Person”). Shareholders who currently beneficially own 4.99% or more of the outstanding Common Stock will not be deemed to be an Acquiring Person unless they acquire one or more additional shares of Common Stock (unless upon such acquisition they do not beneficially own 4.99% or more of the Common Stock then outstanding). Pursuant to an amendment to the Rights Plan dated October 21, 2016, Brookstone Partners Acquisition XXIV, LLC, and its affiliates and associates, are exempt from the definition of an Acquiring Person.

Product Revenue:Product revenue consists of revenue recognized from the MTI Instruments’ product lines.
Product revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased2016 increased by $644$936 thousand, or 33.2%72.2%, to $1.3$2.2 million from $1.9$1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2014.2015. This decrease in product revenueincrease was attributable to a $468 thousand decrease in laser, capacitance and general instrumentation product sales and $267 thousand less indriven primarily by activity under the long-awaited U.S. Air Force business under expiring contracts (see below). These decreases were partially offset by increases in commercialcontract for engine vibration system sales. In addition,analysis systems, accessories and maintenance, which we entered into on July 1, 2016. Also contributing to the economic slowdown across Asia has impacted capital spending on new equipmentquarterly revenue growth was an increase in tensile stage shipments in the U.S. and automation.to Asia. For the three months ended September 30, 2015,2016, the largest commercial customer for the segment was a U.S. turbine engine tooling manufacturer, which accounted for 8.0% of the third quarter 2016 revenue.

The Company has historically incurred significant losses (the majority, until 2012, stemming from the direct methanol fuel cell product development and commercialization programs of its former subsidiary, MeOH Power, Inc.) and had a consolidated accumulated deficit of $119.0$120.8 million as of September 30, 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a net loss of $1.2 million, had cash used in operating activities totaling $989 thousand and had working capital of $1.7 million.2016. Management believes that the Company currently has adequate resources to avoid cost cuttingfuture cost-cutting measures that could adversely affect theits business. As of September 30, 2015,2016, we had no debt, no$20 thousand in commitments for capital expenditure commitmentsexpenditures and approximately $899$886 thousand of cash available to fund our operations.
IfBased on business developments, including changes in production levels, rise at MTI Instruments,staffing requirements and network infrastructure improvements, additional capital equipment may be required in the foreseeable future. WeBased on management’s projections, we expect to spend a total of approximately $75$150 thousand on capital equipment and $1.5$1.3 million in research and development on MTI Instruments’ products during 2015.2016. We expect to financeanticipate financing any futurenear term expenditures and to continue funding our operations from our current cash position and our projected 2015 cash flowflows pursuant to management’s current plan.plans. We may also seek to supplement our resources by drawing upon our availableobtaining new credit facilities and/or through sales of stock or assets. Besides the Company’s lines of credit, the Company has no other formal commitments for funding future needs of the organization at this timeto fund operational working capital and suchcapital expenditure requirements. Any additional financing, during 2015, if required, may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.
While it cannot be assured, management believes that, due in part to our current working capital level, recent replacements in sales and engineering staff effective inventory management and stabilized spending, the Company should be able to generate sufficient cash flows to fund the Company’s active operations for the foreseeable future. However, iffuture, even in the absence of lines of credit following their termination in March 2016, as discussed below. If our revenue estimates are delayedoff either in timing or missed,amount, however, the Company may need to implement additional steps to ensure liquidity including, but not limited to, the deferral of planned capital spending and/or delaying existing or pending product development initiatives. Such steps, if required, could potentially have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding liquidity and going concern.
As discussed above, on October 21, 2016, the Company issued and sold 3,750,000 shares of its common stock to Brookstone for an aggregate of $2,737,500. This new investment has allowed MTI’s balance sheet to improve and provides MTI with additional capital for, among other things, key strategic activities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Note 2, Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20142015 includes a summary of our most significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.2015. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, income taxes and stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Periodically, our management reviews our critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, in paragraph 4 of such certifications, information concerning our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Such certifications should be read in conjunction with the information contained in this Item 4 for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by such certifications.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of MTI’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2015.2016. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and we necessarily apply our judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2015,2016, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 20152016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
At any point in time, we may be involved in various lawsuits or other legal proceedings. Such lawsuits could arise from the sale of products or services or from other matters relating to our regular business activities, compliance with various governmental regulations and requirements, or other transactions or circumstances. We do not believe there are any such proceedings presently pending. See Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
In addition to the risks discussed in Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), filed on March 5, 2015, sets forth information relating to important risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Except to the extent that information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such risk factors (including, without limitation, the matters described in Part I, Item 2 (Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Statement Concerning Forward Looking Statements), there have been no material changes to our risk factors disclosed in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. However, those30, 2016, which risk factors continue to be relevant to an understanding of our business, financial condition and operating results and, accordingly, which you should review and consider such risk factors in making any investment decision with respect to our securities, the following risks are related to the sale of the Shares to Brookstone discussed elsewhere in this report.
The increase in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding following the sale of Common Stock to Brookstone and the price at which such shares were issued, may cause the market price of the Common Stock to decline.
As discussed above, on October 21, 2016, we sold 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock to Brookstone for $0.73 per share. This represents a 26.3% discount to the per-share closing price of the Common Stock on October 20, 2016. The increase in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock and the price at which the shares of Common Stock were sold to Brookstone may cause the market price of the Common Stock to decline.
Future sales of our common stock, or the perception that future sales may occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline, even if our business is doing well.
As discussed above, the Company is obligated to register for resale the shares of Common Stock sold to Brookstone pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement entered into between the Company and Brookstone. Sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in the market after such registration, or the perception that these sales may occur, could materially and adversely affect the price of the Common Stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities.
Brookstone’s ownership of 41.7% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock gives it a controlling interest in the Company.
As discussed above, Brookstone owns approximately 41.7% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock and has designated three directors to sit on our seven-member Board of Directors. Accordingly, going forward Brookstone will be able to exert a significant degree of influence or actual control over our management and affairs and, as a practical matter, will control corporate actions requiring shareholder approval, irrespective of how our other shareholders may vote, including the election of directors, amendments to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, and the approval of mergers and other significant corporate transactions, including a sale of substantially all of our assets, and Brookstone may vote its shares in a manner that is adverse to the interests of our minority stockholders. For example, Brookstone will be able to prevent a merger or similar transaction, including a transaction in which stockholders will receive a premium for their shares, even if our other shareholders are in favor of such transaction. This concentration of voting control could deprive you of an opportunity to receive a premium for your shares of Common Stock as part of a sale of MTI and also might adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock to the extent investors perceive disadvantages in owning shares of a company with a controlling shareholder.
Brookstone and their director designees may acquire interests and positions that could present potential conflicts with our and our shareholders’ interests.
Brookstone and their director designees may make investments in companies and may, from time to time, acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us. Brookstone and their director designees may also pursue, for their own accounts, acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and as a result, those acquisition opportunities might not be available to us. As part of the Brookstone transaction and as required by Brookstone as a condition to purchasing the shares of Common Stock, our Board of Directors renounced, to the extent permitted by New York law, the Company's expectancy with respect to being offered an opportunity to participate in any business opportunity that is discovered by or presented to a director designee (a “Business Opportunity”), whether in such director designee’s capacity as a director of MTI or otherwise. Accordingly, the interests of Brookstone and the designated directors with respect to a Business Opportunity may supersede ours, and Brookstone or its affiliates or the Brookstone-designated directors may be involved with business in competition with us and may pursue opportunities for the benefit of solely Brookstone and its affiliates without our involvement, for which we have limited recourse. Such actions on the part of Brookstone or the director designees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
