CSP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 AND 2014

Organization and Business

CSP Inc. was founded in 1968 and is based in Billerica, Massachusetts. To meet the diverse requirements of its industrial, commercial and defense customers worldwide, CSP Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively “we”, “us”, “our”,

“CSPI” or the “Company”) develop and market IT integration solutions and high-performance cluster computer systems. The Company operates in two segments, its High Performance Products (“HPP”) segment (formerly the “High Performance Products and Solutions” segment) and its Technology Solutions (“TS”) segment (formerly the Information Technology Solutions segment).

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, have been omitted.

Accordingly, the Company believes that although the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, the unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the footnotes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.

2. Use of Estimates

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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, including estimates and assumptions related to reserves for bad debt, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the impairment assessment of intangible assets, the calculation of estimated selling price and post-delivery support obligations used for revenue recognition and the calculation of income tax liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

3. Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share reflects the maximum dilution that would have resulted from the assumed exercise and share repurchase related to dilutive stock options and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the assumed weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

We are required to present earnings per share, or EPS, utilizing the two class method because we had outstanding, non-vested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, which are considered participating securities.

Basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the Company’s reported net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders are as follows:



	For the three months ended				For the nine months ended
	June 30, 2015		June 30, 2014		June 30, 2015			June 30, 2014
	(Amounts in thousands except per share data)
Net income (loss)	$	249	$	899	$	(863	)	$	1,412
Less: net income attributable to nonvested common stock	9		36		—			51
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders	$	240	$	863	$	(863	)	$	1,361

Weighted average total shares outstanding – basic	3,674		3,593		3,522			3,572
Less: weighted average non-vested shares outstanding	134		142		—			130
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding – basic	3,540		3,451		3,522			3,442
Potential common shares from non-vested stock awards and the assumed exercise of stock options	93		48		—			46
Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted	3,633		3,499		3,522			3,488

Net income (loss) per share – basic	$	0.07	$	0.25	$	(0.25	)	$	0.40
Net income (loss) per share – diluted	$	0.07	$	0.25	$	(0.25	)	$	0.39

All anti-dilutive securities, including certain stock options, are excluded from the diluted income (loss) per share computation. For the three months ended June, 2015 and 2014, 12,000 and 58,000 options, respectively, were excluded from the diluted income per share calculation because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive as their exercise price exceeded fair value. For the nine months ended June, 2015 and 2014, 28,000 and 52,000 options, respectively, were excluded from the diluted income per share calculation because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive as their exercise price exceeded fair value. Additionally, 130,000 non-vested restricted stock awards were excluded from the diluted income per share calculation as there was a net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Draft 5 Preliminary & Tentative For Discussion Purposes Only

4. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:



	June 30, 2015		September 30, 2014
	(Amounts in thousands)

Total	$	6,646	$	6,446

Finished goods includes inventory of approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million as of June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, respectively, that has been shipped, but for which all revenue recognition criteria have not been met

Total inventory balances in the table above are shown net of reserves for obsolescence of approximately $3.9 million and $4.7 million as of June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014.

5. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows:

6. Pension and Retirement Plans

The Company has defined benefit and defined contribution plans in the United Kingdom, Germany and the U.S. In the United Kingdom and Germany, the Company provides defined benefit pension plans and defined contribution plans for the majority of its employees. In the U.S., the Company provides benefits through supplemental retirement plans to certain current and former employees. The domestic supplemental retirement plans have life insurance policies which are not plan assets but were purchased by the Company as a vehicle to fund the costs of the plan. Domestically, the Company also provides for officer death benefits through post-retirement plans to certain officers. All of the Company’s defined benefit plans are closed to newly hired employees and have been for the two years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and for the nine months ended June 30, 2015.

The Company funds its pension plans in amounts sufficient to meet the requirements set forth in applicable employee benefits laws and local tax laws. Liabilities for amounts in excess of these funding levels are accrued and reported in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company's pension plan in the United Kingdom is the only plan with plan assets. The plan assets consist of an investment in a commingled fund which in turn comprises a diversified mix of assets including corporate equity securities, government securities and corporate debt securities.

The components of net periodic benefit costs related to the U.S. and international plans are as follows:

10. Acquired Business

On November 4, 2013 the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Myricom, Inc. Myricom has been integrated into the High Performance Products segment.

Although Myricom was an established business prior to the acquisition, it had previously sold off a significant portion of its business and was faced with the likelihood of having to shut down operations if it could not find a buyer to purchase its remaining assets because the revenue that Myricom was able to generate from these remaining assets was not sufficient to operate the business profitably. As a result, the Company recognized a bargain purchase gain. The Company paid total cash consideration of approximately $0.5 million to acquire substantially all of the assets of Myricom and incurred approximately $0.1 million for the assumption of certain other liabilities. The purchase of Myricom resulted in the recognition of a net after tax bargain purchase gain of approximately $0.5 million as shown below.

The purchase price was allocated as follows:



	(Amounts in Thousands)
Inventory	$	1,030
Property & equipment	17
Intangibles	260
Gross assets acquired	1,307
Product warranty liability assumed	(93		)
Net assets acquired	1,214
Less: asset purchase price	500
Bargain purchase gain before tax	714
Deferred tax on bargain purchase gain	(252		)
Bargain purchase gain, net of tax effect	$	462

The results of operations of Myricom for the for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and the eight month period beginning on November 4, 2013 and ending on June 30, 2014 are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2014 ‑09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. This ASU clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue by, among other things, removing inconsistencies in revenue requirements, improving comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities and industries and providing improved disclosure requirements. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one year deferral of the effective date for this ASU to interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017; however, early adoption at the original effective date is still permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), which excludes investments measured at net asset value, as a practical expedient for fair value, from the fair value hierarchy. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and requires retrospective application, with early adoption permitted. The implementation of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact to the disclosures in our consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

The discussion below contains certain forward-looking statements related but not limited to, among others, statements concerning future revenues and future business plans. In addition, forward-looking statements include statements in which we use words such as “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “project”, “estimate” “should” “could,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and thus we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to have been correct, and actual results may vary from those contained in such forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks and uncertainties in Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2014. Factors that may cause such variances include, but are not limited to, our dependence on a small number of customers for a significant portion of our revenue, our high dependence on contracts with the U.S. federal government, our reliance in certain circumstances on single sources for supply of key product components, and intense competition in the market segments in which we operate. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this document. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this filing and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2014

Markets for our products and services are characterized by rapidly changing technology, new product introductions and short product life cycles. These changes can adversely affect our business and operating results. Our success will depend on our ability to enhance our existing products and services and to develop and introduce, on a timely and cost effective basis, new products that keep pace with technological developments and address increasing customer requirements. The inability to meet these demands could adversely affect our business and operating results.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our 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. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation, income taxes, deferred compensation and retirement plans, estimated selling prices used for revenue recognition and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical performance and on various other assumptions that are believed to be 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. A description of our critical accounting policies is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

Explanatory note

As of March 31, 2015 we renamed the segment that was formerly known as the High Performance Products and Solutions segment to the High Performance Products ("HPP") segment. As of the same date, we also renamed the segment that was formerly known as the Information Technology Solutions segment to the Technology Solutions ("TS") segment.

Overview of the three months ended June 30, 2015

Our revenue decreased by approximately $0.3 million, or 2%, to $22.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 versus $22.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in revenue is the result of decreases of $2.0 million and $0.9 million in the German TS segment and the US HPP segment, respectively, which were largely offset by TS segment increases of $2.4 million and $0.2 million in the US and UK, respectively. Approximately $1.4 million of the revenue decrease in the TS segment for the three months ended June 30, 2015 is attributed to the decline in the currency exchange rate for the Euro and the British Pound as compared to the US dollar.

Our gross profit margin percentage decreased overall, from 27% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014 to 24% for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The 3% decrease in our gross margin percentage is primarily attributed to losses in the UK to due to additional costs on fixed price contracts that we were unable to bill for additional revenue and lower margins on product revenues.

Operating income decreased by $0.3 million to $0.7 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 as a result of a lower gross profit that was partially offset by reductions in operating expenses.

The following table details our results of operations in dollars and as a percentage of sales for the three months ended:



	June 30, 2015			% of sales		June 30, 2014			% of sales

Revenues

Our revenues decreased by $0.3 million to $22.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $22.6 million of revenues for the same period in fiscal year 2014. The revenue decrease was comprised of a $0.9 million decrease in HPP segment revenues, partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in TS segment revenues.

HPP segment revenue change by product line was as follows for the three months ended:



($ in thousands)					Decrease
	2015		2014		$			%
Products	$	1,844	$	2,697	$	(853	)	(32	)%
Services	2,085		2,137		(52		)	(2	)%
Total	$	3,929	$	4,834	$	(905	)	(19	)%

The decrease in HPP revenues, for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in fiscal year 2014, is attributed to the timing of shipments to overseas defense contractors and a decrease in the Myricom product line revenue.

TS segment revenue change by product line was as follows for the three months ended:



($ in thousands)					Increase (decrease)
	2015		2014		$			%
Products	$	13,852	$	12,980	$	872		7	%
Services	4,506		4,822		(316		)	(7	)%
Total	$	18,358	$	17,802	$	556		3	%

The $0.6 million increase in TS revenues for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, was the result of increases in both our US and UK divisions of $2.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, partially offset by $2.0 million decrease in our German division. Revenues during the third quarter of 2015 in our German and UK divisions were approximately $1.2 million and $0.2 million less than they otherwise respectively would have been because of the decline in the currency exchange rate for the Euro and the British Pound as compared to the US dollar. We consider the non-currency exchange rate related revenue decrease in our German division, and the increase in our US division revenues to be a result of the timing of orders rather than a change in market conditions.

Our revenues by geographic area based on the location to which the products were shipped or services rendered was as follows for the three months ended:



($ in thousands)	June 30,								Increase (decrease)
	2015		%		2014		%		$			%
Americas	$	16,129	72	%	$	14,421	64	%	$	1,708		12	%
Europe	6,032		27	%	7,728		34	%	(1,696		)	(22	)%

Totals	$	22,287	100	%	$	22,636	100	%	$	(349	)	(2	)%

Gross Margins

Our gross margin ("GM") decreased by $0.8 million or 3% of revenues to $5.3 million and as compared to a gross margin of $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30 as follows:



($ in thousands)	2015				2014				Increase (decrease)
	GM$		GM%		GM$		GM%		GM$			GM%
HPP	$	2,640	67	%	$	3,252	67	%	$	(612	)	—	%
TS	2,626		14	%	2,852		16	%	(226		)	(2	)%
Total	$	5,266	24	%	$	6,104	27	%	$	(838	)	(3	)%

The impact of product mix within our HPP segment on gross margin for the three months ended was as follows:



($ in thousands)	2015				2014				Increase (decrease)
	GM$		GM%		GM$		GM%		GM$			GM%
Product	$	571	31	%	$	1,131	42	%	$	(560	)	(11	)%
Services	2,069		99	%	2,121		99	%	(52		)	—	%
Total	$	2,640	67	%	$	3,252	67	%	$	(612	)	—	%

The overall HPP segment gross margins as a percentage of sales was 67% for the three month periods ended June 30 2015 and 2014. The 11% decrease in product margins is primarily attributed to the acceleration of previously deferred costs. HPP service revenue primarily consists of high margin royalty payments.

The impact of product mix within our TS segment on gross margin for the three months ended June 30 was as follows :



($ in thousands)	2015				2014				Increase (decrease)
	GM$		GM%		GM$		GM%		GM$			GM%
Product	$	1,664	12	%	$	1,488	11	%	$	176		1	%
Services	962		21	%	1,364		28	%	(402		)	(7	)%
Total	$	2,626	14	%	$	2,852	16	%	$	(226	)	(2	)%

The TS segment gross margin declined as a percentage of sales for third quarter of 2015 as compared the same period in 2014, primarily because of losses in the UK due to additional costs on fixed price contracts that we were unable to bill for additional revenue and lower margins on product revenues.

Engineering and Development Expenses

The engineering and development expenses incurred exclusively by our HPP segment were $0.6 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease in engineering and development expenses is attributed to a reduction of engineering labor and overhead not associated with the development of new Myricom products. The current year expenses are primarily for Myricom engineering expenses incurred in connection with the development of new products, which includes the release of our Myricom 10 Gigabyte Ethernet Adapters with DBL software following the third fiscal quarter 2015, on July 7, 2015.

Selling, General and Administrative

The following table details our selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense by operating segment for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:



	For the three Months Ended June 30,
	2015		% of Total		2014		% of Total		$ Decrease			% Decrease
	(Dollar amounts in thousands)
By Operating Segment:
HPP segment	$	1,197	30	%	$	1,309	31	%	$	(112	)	(9	)%
TS segment	2,748		70	%	2,883		69	%	(135		)	(5	)%
Total	$	3,945	100	%	$	4,192	100	%	$	(247	)	(6	)%

The HPP segment SG&A expenses decrease of $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 is primarily attributed to lower incentive compensation costs. The TS segment SG&A expense decrease of $0.1 million is the result of lower compensation expenses and the currency exchange rate for the Euro and the British Pound as compared to the US dollar partially offset by increase variable marketing expenses.

Other Income/Expenses

The following table details our other income (expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:



	For the three months ended,
	June 30, 2015			June 30, 2014			Increase (decrease)
	(Amounts in thousands)
Interest expense	$	(26	)	$	(37	)	$	11
Interest income	1			1			—
Foreign exchange loss	(87		)	(67		)	(20		)
Other expense, net	(1		)	(1		)	—
Total other income (expense), net	$	(113	)	$	(104	)	$	(9	)

The increase in the foreign exchange loss for the three month period ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was due to losses on foreign currency holdings where those currencies weakened against the functional currencies in those countries.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $333,000, which is primarily related to the increased profits in the US and Germany of $1.1 million and $143,000, respectively. There was no tax benefit recorded on the loss in the UK because the Company has recorded a valuation allowance which reduces the gross deferred tax asset to an amount which we believe will more likely than not be realized.

Overview of the nine months ended June 30, 2015

Revenue decreased by approximately $3.3 million, or 5%, to $61.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 versus $64.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. HPP revenues decreased by approximately $1.1 million due to lower plane revenues and TS revenues declined by $2.2 million. The decrease in TS revenues reflects the unfavorable impact of a decline in the currency exchange rate for the Euro and the British Pound as compared to the US dollar of approximately $3.2 million that was partially offset by higher product revenues.

Our gross profit margin percentage decreased overall, from 24% of revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 to 22% for the nine months ended June 30, 2015.

We incurred an operating loss of approximately $0.9 million for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2015 compared to $1.6 million of operating income for the nine months ended June 30, 2014.

The following table details our results of operations in dollars and as a percentage of sales for the nine months ended :

Revenues

Our revenues decreased by $3.3 million to $61.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 as compared $64.9 million of revenues for the same period in fiscal year 2014. The revenue decrease was comprised of a $1.1 million decrease in HPP segment revenues and a $2.2 million decrease in TS segment revenues revenues which reflects the unfavorable impact of a decline in the currency exchange rate for the Euro and the British Pound as compared to the US dollar of approximately $3.2 million that was partially offset by higher product revenues.

HPP segment revenue change by product line for the nine months ended June 30 was as follows :



($ in thousands)					Increase (decrease)
	2015		2014		$			%
Products	$	6,823	$	5,873	$	950		16	%
Services	2,445		4,485		(2,040		)	(45	)%
Total	$	9,268	$	10,358	$	(1,090	)	(11	)%

The increase in HPP product revenues for the first nine months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 was the result of an increase in Myricom product revenues. This increase in product revenues was more than offset by greater reduction in service revenues attributed to lower royalties in the first nine months of 2015, resulting in an overall HPP segment revenue decrease of $1.1 million. The HPP segment recognized approximately $3.8 million of royalty revenue related to six planes in the first nine months of fiscal year 2014 as compared to $1.9 million of royalty revenue related to three planes in the first nine months of fiscal year 2015. We expect to recognize royalty revenue on two additional planes during fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015.

TS segment revenue change by product line for the nine months ended June 30 was as follows:



($ in thousands)					Decrease
	2015		2014		$			%
Products	$	38,721	$	38,872	$	(151	)	—	%

Total	$	52,326	$	54,513	$	(2,187	)	(4	)%

The decrease in TS segment revenues, for the first nine months of fiscal year 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, was the result of a $4.4 million decrease in our German division, partially offset by increases of $1.6 million and $0.7 million in our UK and US divisions, respectively. Revenues during the nine months ended June 30, 2015 in our German and UK divisions was approximately $2.9 million and $0.3 million less than they otherwise respectively would have been because of the decline in the currency exchange rate for the Euro and British Pound as compared to the US dollar. We consider the non-currency related revenue decrease in our German division, and the increase in our US division revenues to be a result of the timing of orders rather than a change in market conditions

Our revenues by geographic area for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 based on the location to which the products were shipped or services rendered was as follows (in thousands):

The impact of product mix within our HPP segment on gross margin for the nine months ended June 30 was as follows:



($ in thousands)	2015				2014				Increase (decrease)
	GM$		GM%		GM$		GM%		GM$			GM%
Product	$	2,751	40	%	$	2,221	38	%	$	530		2	%
Services	2,387		98	%	4,375		98	%	(1,988		)	—	%
Total	$	5,138	55	%	$	6,596	64	%	$	(1,458	)	(9	)%

The decrease in our HPP segment gross margins is primarily attributed to the impact of $3.8 million of royalty revenue related to six planes at approximately 100% gross margin in the first nine months of fiscal year 2014 as compared to three planes in the first nine months of fiscal year 2015. Additional gross margin contributed by Myricom product revenues partially offset the lower level of royalty revenue in the first nine months of fiscal year 2015. We expect to recognize royalty revenue on two additional planes during fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015.

The impact of product mix within our TS segment gross margin for the nine months ended was as follows:



($ in thousands)	2015				2014				Decrease
	GM$		GM%		GM$		GM%		GM$			GM%
Product	$	4,819	12	%	$	5,077	13	%	$	(258	)	(1	)%
Services	3,307		24	%	4,046		26	%	(739		)	(2	)%
Total	$	8,126	16	%	$	9,123	17	%	$	(997	)	(1	)%

The decrease in our TS segment gross margin of $1.0 million is primarily attributed to the decreases in gross margin of $0.4 million, $0.3 million and $0.3 million in our UK, German and US divisions , respectively, for the first nine months of fiscal year 2015 compared to the same period in fiscal year 2014.

Engineering and Development Expenses

The engineering and development expenses decreased by $0.1 million to $2.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $2.4 million for the same period in fiscal year 2014. The decrease in engineering and development expenses is attributed to a reduction of engineering labor and overhead in our HPP segment that are not associated with the development of new Myricom products. The current year expenses are primarily for Myricom engineering expenses incurred in connection with the development of new products, which includes the release of our Myricom 10 Gigabyte Ethernet Adapters with DBL software following the third fiscal quarter 2015, on July 7, 2015.

Selling, General and Administrative

The following table details our SG&A expense by operating segment for the nine months ended was as follows:



($ in thousands)	For the nine Months Ended June 30,
	2015		% of Total		2014		% of Total		$ Increase (decrease)			% Increase (decrease)
	(Dollar amounts in thousands)
By Operating Segment:
HPP segment	$	3,520	30	%	$	3,433	28	%	$	87		3	%
TS segment	8,304		70	%	8,736		72	%	(432		)	(5	)%
Total	$	11,824	100	%	$	12,169	100	%	$	(345	)	(3	)%

The 3% increase in HPP SG&A expenses is attributed to increased sales and marketing costs including higher variable commissions expense on the additional Myricom revenues in the first nine months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. The $0.4 million decrease in the TS segment operating cost is primarily attributed to decreased costs in our German division which incurred lower variable sales and marketing expenses and benefited from the impact of the decline in the currency exchange rate for the Euro as compared to the US dollar for the first nine months of fiscal year 2015 compared to the same period in fiscal year 2014.

Other Income/Expenses

The following table details our other income (expense) for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:



	For the nine months ended,
	June 30, 2015			June 30, 2014			Increase (decrease)
	(Amounts in thousands)
Interest expense	$	(63	)	$	(64	)	$	1
Interest income	5			4			1

Other income, net	(1		)	2			(3		)
Total other expense, net	$	(275	)	$	(178	)	$	(97	)

The increase in the foreign exchange loss for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period of 2014 was due to losses on foreign currency holdings where those currencies weakened against the functional currencies in those countries.

Income Taxes

For the nine months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $277,000, which was primarily related to the loss in the US operation of $690,000, partially offset by the $297,000 of income in the German operation. There was no tax benefit recorded on the loss in the UK because the Company has recorded a valuation allowance which reduces the gross deferred tax asset to an amount which we believe will more likely than not be realized. The Company reversed $70,000 of uncertain tax positions on June 30, 2015 due to the expiration of the statute of limitation on these tax positions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of liquidity is our cash and cash equivalents, which decreased by $6.0 million to $10.4 million as of June 30, 2015 from $16.4 million as of September 30, 2014. At June 30, 2015, cash equivalents consisted of money market funds which totaled $0.5 million.

Significant uses of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 included the net loss of approximately $0.9 million, an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $5.4 million, an increase in inventories of approximately $0.5 million, a decrease in deferred revenue of approximately $0.6 million, dividends paid of approximately $1.2 million, a decrease from the effects of foreign currency exchange rate on cash of $0.8 million and an increase in other current assets of approximately $0.5 million. Significant sources of cash included an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $3.7 million.

Cash held by our foreign subsidiaries located in Germany and the United Kingdom totaled approximately $6.5 million as of June 30, 2015 as compared to $7.1 million as of September 30, 2014. This cash is included in our total cash and cash equivalents reported above. We consider this cash to be permanently reinvested into these foreign locations.

If cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy working capital requirements, we may need to access funds through bank loans, the equity markets, or other means. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise any such capital on terms acceptable to us, on a timely basis or at all. If we are unable to secure additional financing, we may not be able to complete development or enhancement of products, take advantage of future opportunities, respond to competition or continue to effectively operate our business.

Based on our current plans and business conditions, management believes that the Company’s available cash and cash equivalents, the cash generated from operations and availability on our lines of credit will be sufficient to provide for the Company’s working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2015. Our chief executive officer, our chief financial officer, and other members of our senior management team supervised and participated in this evaluation. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or 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 our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2015, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the fact that we are not yet able to conclude that the material weakness described in this Item 4 below has been remediated by the changes we made in response to that material weakness.

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

As we have previously reported on our annual report for the period ended September 30, 2014, management originally identified a material weakness as of March 31, 2014. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely basis.

The material weakness is in connection with our controls over the revenue recognition process, specifically that revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied prior to recognizing revenue and the failure to sufficiently assess gross versus net revenue indicators to certain revenue transactions. We determined that controls over the revenue recognition process were not operating effectively and the resulting control gap amounted to a material weakness in our controls over financial reporting. As a result, we had concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2014. Although we have implemented changes to our internal controls over financial reporting as described below, at this time we cannot conclude that the material weakness has been remediated.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

During the periods following our initial identification of the material weakness referred to above, management assessed various alternatives to remediate this material weakness and we implemented changes to our system of internal controls, which included the implementation enhanced internal auditing procedures, whereby revenue transactions are subjected to a more rigorous review process at the corporate level to ensure the correct accounting methodology is applied to all revenue transactions. During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, management took additional action to upgrade our international accounting staff and improved accounting operations in our European divisions.
