NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by MAM Software Group, Inc. ("MAM" or the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US") has been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Operating results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016. It is suggested that the condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015, which was filed with the SEC on September 24, 2015. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and determined that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes thereto.

NOTE 2. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

MAM Software Group, Inc. is a leading provider of integrated information management solutions and services and a leading provider of cloud-based software solutions for the automotive aftermarket sector. The Company conducts its businesses through wholly owned subsidiaries with operations in Europe and North America. MAM Software Ltd. ("MAM Ltd.") is based in Tankersley, Barnsley, United Kingdom ("UK"), Origin Software Solutions, Ltd. ("Origin") is based in the UK (MAM Ltd. and Origin are collectively referred to as "MAM UK"), and MAM Software, Inc. ("MAM NA") has an office in the US in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

MAM SOFTWARE GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2016

(Unaudited)

The Company maintains its cash accounts at financial institutions which it believes to be credit worthy. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.

Customers

The Company performs periodic evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. The Company generally does not require collateral to secure its accounts receivable. Credit risk is managed by discontinuing sales to customers who are delinquent. The Company estimates credit losses and returns based on management's evaluation of historical experience and current industry trends. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.

No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's accounts receivable at March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015. No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's revenues for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates in one reportable segment. The Company evaluates financial performance on a company-wide basis. The Company's chief operating decision-maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who evaluates the Company as a single segment.

Geographic Concentrations

The Company conducts business in the US, Canada, the UK and Ireland (UK and Ireland are collectively referred to as the "UK market"). For customers headquartered in their respective countries, the Company derived approximately 68% of its revenues from the UK, 30% from the US, 1% from Ireland, and 1% from Canada during the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 76% of its revenues from the UK, 23% from the US and 1% from Canada during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

The Company derived approximately 70% of its revenues from the UK, 28% from the US, 1% from Ireland and 1% from Canada during the nine months ended March 31, 2016 compared to 74% of its revenues from the UK, 25% from the US, and 1% from Canada during the nine months ended March 31, 2015.

At March 31, 2016, the Company maintained 97% of its net property and equipment in the UK and the remaining 3% in the US. At June 30, 2015, the Company maintained 83% of its net property and equipment in the UK and the remaining 17% in the US.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the US 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 condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by the Company's management include, but are not limited to, the collectability of accounts receivable, the realizability of inventories, the recoverability of goodwill and other long-lived assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and the estimated fair value of stock options, warrants and shares issued for compensation and non-cash consideration. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt. Financial assets and liabilities that are remeasured and reported at fair value at each reporting period are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

•   Level 1 – Fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•   Level 2 – Fair value based on significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

•   Level 3 – Fair value based on prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. Inputs would normally be a reporting entity's own data and judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Determining into which category within the hierarchy an asset or liability may require significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or current estimated market value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consist primarily of hardware that will be sold to customers. The Company periodically reviews its inventories and records a provision for excess and obsolete inventories based primarily on the Company's estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Once established, write-downs of inventories are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess inventories.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are being depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the related lease terms. Equipment under capital lease obligations is depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the term of the lease. Maintenance and routine repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Depreciation expense was $84,000 and $59,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and was $234,000 and $182,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Software Development Costs

Costs incurred to develop computer software products to be sold or otherwise marketed are charged to expense until technological feasibility of the product has been established. Once technological feasibility has been established, computer software development costs (consisting primarily of internal labor costs) are capitalized and reported at the lower of amortized cost or estimated realizable value. Purchased software development cost is recorded at its estimated fair market value. When a product is ready for general release, its capitalized costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis. The annual amortization is the greater of the amounts of: the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product; and, the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life (a period of three years) of the product including the period being reported on. If the future market viability of a software product is less than anticipated, impairment of the related unamortized development costs could occur, which could significantly impact the Company's results of operations. Amortization expense on software development costs was $70,000 and $61,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $207,000 and $184,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Amortizable Intangible Assets

Amortizable intangible assets consist of completed software technology, customer relationships and automotive data services and are recorded at cost. Completed software technology and customer relationships are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of eight to ten years, and automotive data services are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 20 years. Amortization expense on amortizable intangible assets was $24,000 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $73,000 and $112,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Goodwill

Goodwill is not amortized but rather is tested at least annually for impairment.

Goodwill is subject to impairment reviews by applying a fair-value-based test at the reporting unit level, which generally represents operations one level below the segments reported by the Company. As of March 31, 2016, the Company does not believe there is an impairment of its goodwill. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change and/or demand for the Company's products and services will continue at a level consistent with past results, which could result in impairment of goodwill in the future.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, goodwill activity was as follows:

Long-Lived Assets

The Company's management assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets (other than goodwill discussed above) upon the occurrence of a triggering event by determining whether the carrying value of long-lived assets can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows over their remaining lives. The amount of long-lived asset impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations during the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management. At March 31, 2016, management believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company's products and services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

Issuance of Equity Instruments to Non-Employees

All issuances of the Company's equity instruments to non-employees are measured based upon either the fair value of the equity instruments issued or the fair value of consideration received, depending on which option is more readily determinable. The majority of stock issuance for non-cash consideration received pertains to services rendered by consultants and others and has been valued at the fair value of the equity instruments on the dates issued.

The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. Assets acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor's balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes.

Stock-Based Compensation

For valuing stock options awards, the Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing valuation model ("Black-Scholes"). For the expected term, the Company uses a simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term of the option. Volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company's stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of the option. For volatility the Company considers its own volatility as applicable for valuing its options and warrants. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The risk-free interest rate is based on the relevant US Treasury Bill Rate at the time of each grant. The dividend yield represents the dividend rate expected to be paid over the option's expected term; the Company currently has no plans to pay dividends.

On June 12, 2008, the Company's shareholders approved the Company's 2007 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan ("LTIP"). Stock awarded under the LTIP are accounted for in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 718-10-25-5 because the awards were unilateral grants, the recipients do not have the ability to negotiate the key terms, and the conditions of the grant, and the key terms and conditions were communicated to the individual recipients within a relatively short period of time.  The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the LTIP, including stock awards and stock appreciation rights, is limited to 15% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the first trading day of any fiscal year. The Company issued restricted shares to management and board members in fiscal 2016 and 2015.

Revenue Recognition

Software license revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product component has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collectability is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, revenue recognition is deferred until such time as all of the criteria are met. The Company accounts for delivered elements, in accordance with the selling price, when arrangements include multiple product components or other elements and vendor-specific objective evidence exists for the value of all undelivered elements. Revenues on undelivered elements are recognized once delivery is complete.

In those instances in which arrangements include significant customization, contractual milestones, acceptance criteria or other contingencies (which represent the majority of the Company's arrangements), the Company accounts for the arrangements using contract accounting, as follows:

The Company records amounts collected from customers in excess of recognizable revenue as deferred revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Revenues for maintenance agreements, software support, on-line services and information products are recognized ratably over the term of the service agreement.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, advertising expense totaled $88,000 and $82,000, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, advertising expense totaled $355,000 and $349,000, respectively.

Foreign Currency

Management has determined that the functional currency of its subsidiaries is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of the UK subsidiaries are translated into US dollars at the quarter-end exchange rates. Income and expenses are translated at an average exchange rate for the period and the resulting translation gain adjustments are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Foreign currency translation income (loss) totaled $(252,000) and $(673,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $(1,068,000) and $(1,926,000) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Foreign currency gains and losses from transactions denominated in other than respective local currencies are included in income. The Company had no foreign currency transaction gains (losses) for all periods presented.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the components of comprehensive income consist of changes in foreign currency translation gains (losses).

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. Deferred taxation is provided in full in respect of taxation deferred by timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting purposes. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company's practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2015, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share ("BEPS") is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share ("DEPS") is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants using the "treasury stock" method. The computation of DEPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, there were 343,969 and 344,464 common share equivalents included in the computation of the DEPS. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, 691,505 shares of common stock vest based on the market price of the Company's common stock and were excluded from the computation of DEPS because the shares have not vested, but no stock options were excluded from the computation of DEPS. For both the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, there were 94,580 common share equivalents included in the computation of the DEPS. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, 866,252 shares of common stock vest based on the market price of the Company's common stock and were excluded from the computation of DEPS because the shares have not vested, but no stock options were excluded from the computation of DEPS.

The following tables present the computation of the basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.   The update provides guidance on simplifying various aspects of the accounting for shared based compensation. The standard is effective for the annual and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017.  The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases . The update requires lessees to present right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The guidance is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach at the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements and is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.   The update provides guidance on simplifying the presentation for debt issuance costs and debt discount and premium. The standard is effective for the annual and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a significant impact on the disclosure or balance sheet presentation in its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 , Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to customers. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new revenue standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern . Currently, there is no guidance in accounting principles generally accepted in the US about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in US auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management's plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management's plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this ASU are effective for the reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-15 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is subject to various legal claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The ultimate disposition of such a proceeding if initiated could have material adverse effects on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company. There are currently no pending material legal proceedings.

Indemnities and Guarantees

The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its credit facility (see Note 6), the Company indemnified the lender for certain losses, claims, and other liabilities that are standard for this type of agreement. In connection with its facility leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. In connection with its customers' contracts the Company indemnifies the customer that the software provided does not violate any US patent. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Company Overview

MAM Software Group, Inc. ("MAM," "we," "our," or "us") is a leading provider of integrated information management solutions and services and a leading provider of cloud-based software solutions for the automotive aftermarket sector. We conduct our businesses through wholly owned subsidiaries with operations in Europe and North America. MAM Software Ltd. ("MAM Ltd.") is based in Tankersley, Barnsley, United Kingdom ("UK"), Origin Software Solutions, Ltd. ("Origin") is based in the UK (MAM Ltd. and Origin are collectively referred to as "MAM UK"), and MAM Software, Inc. ("MAM NA") has an office in the United States of America ("US") in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

We are a leading provider of cloud-based business and on-premise management solutions for the auto parts, tires and vertical distribution industries. We have a broad line of software solutions and services to address the information technology (IT) needs of virtually every significant sector of the automotive aftermarket in the UK and Ireland (collectively referred to as the "UK market") and North America ("NA") and are seeking to leverage this position into new industry verticals. At present, many of our customers in the UK have our software installed on-premise. For customers who prefer not to physically acquire the software and hardware, most of our software applications can be delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS), which utilizes the cloud. We provide professional IT services to our customers, including software and hardware installation, data conversion, training, and, at times, product modifications. We also provide continuing customer support services to ensure product performance and reliability, which provides us with long-term customer relationships and a significant base of recurring maintenance revenue.

Our Markets

We provide software, information and related services to businesses engaged in the automotive aftermarket in the US, Canada, UK and Ireland. The automotive aftermarket consists of businesses associated with the life cycle of a motor vehicle, from when the original manufacturer's warranty expires to when the vehicle is scrapped. Products sold by businesses engaged in this market include parts, tires and auto services required to maintain and improve the performance or appeal of a vehicle throughout its useful life. We aim to meet the business needs of customers who are involved in the maintenance and repair of automobiles and light trucks in three key segments of the automotive aftermarket, namely parts, tires and auto service.

Our customer base consists of wholesale parts and tire distributors, retailers, franchisees, cooperatives, auto service chains and single location auto service businesses with high customer service expectations and complex commercial relationships.

In the UK and Ireland, we also provide management solutions to business involved in the wholesale of construction materials. These vertical markets include plumbing, building, lumber, and electrical wholesale distribution companies.

Market Dynamics & Opportunities

While the automotive aftermarkets in the UK, Ireland and North America have been returning to growth, competition in the repair market remains intense. The independent channel faces stiff competition from vehicle manufacturers (VMs) and their networks of authorized dealers and repair shops.

In order to "level the playing field," independent distributors and installers often join forces with other independents to form purchasing or marketing networks, which buy in volume to secure better prices or co-brand to achieve better market visibility. Our management believes that these networks provide a valuable route to market and these networks therefore form the focus of many of our sales and marketing strategies.

We believe that our software provides purchasing and marketing networks and their independent members with the tools they require to compete with the authorized channel. Our range of integrated solutions provide valuable assistance in key operational areas including: professional customer management, efficient process management, precise inventory control and accurate parts identification.

Furthermore, we believe that the recent introduction of our cloud applications creates a unique price/functionality proposition. These Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions do not require customers to purchase hardware and software licenses upfront, but rather allow customers to ‘rent' the infrastructure and purchase the professional services required to implement the system. We believe that by having removed much of the capital investment and ongoing maintenance associated with traditional 'on-premise' software solutions, our solutions are equally attractive to small outlets and national chains.

Our Products and Services

Our business management systems, information products and online services permit our customers to manage their critical day-to-day business operations through automated point-of-sale systems, information (content) products, inventory management systems, purchasing systems, general accounting systems and customer relationship management systems.

We provide professional IT services to our customers, including software and hardware installation, data conversion, training, and, at times, product modifications. We also provide continuing customer support services to ensure product performance and reliability, which fosters long-term customer relationships and establishes a significant base of recurring maintenance revenue.

Our Technologies

Our solutions are available as both 'on-premise' applications sold via the traditional perpetual licensing model and ‘cloud' solutions that are delivered as a service over the Internet on a subscription basis.

Many of our business management applications are now available as SaaS, where software and associated data is centrally hosted on the cloud.

Our catalog information is also available in the cloud as Data as a Service (DaaS). We centrally host and maintain the DaaS data, which is accessed by users via a desktop application, web application or integrated into their B2C website. Many of our applications offer integration with third-party vendors as a service, commonly known as Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS). These services include: technical repair information; vehicle registration data (VRM); auto parts catalog data; zip code lookup; Internet EDI; website integration services; and mobile app connectivity.

Our Revenues

Our revenue and income is derived primarily from the sale of software, data, services and support. In the MAM UK, we also earn a percentage of our revenue and income from the sale of hardware systems to clients. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we generated revenues of $7,916,000 with a net income of $596,000, with 69% of these revenues coming from the UK market.

The Company's revenues are derived from the following:

Our Strategies

To date, our management has identified five areas that it believes we need to focus on. The first area is to grow revenues derived from delivering SaaS. Our business management software solutions Autowork Online, our ‘installer' solution, and Autopart Online, our parts store solution, are being delivered via SaaS. Both products have been developed by MAM Ltd., our UK subsidiary, under the ‘cloud' computing model. This is where software solutions are made available to end- users via the Internet meaning that they do not need to purchase the software directly but ‘rent' it over a fixed period of time. Our management believes that this will be a growth opportunity as businesses continue to look for ways of reducing capital expenditures while maintaining levels of service. Autowork Online was launched in 2010 and as of March 31, 2016, we had 2,811 customers subscribing to this product. The product is now available in North America having been localized for this market. A white-label version of the product was launched in conjunction with ALLDATA LLC. Autopart Online was launched in August 2011, and as of March 31, 2016, we had 299 customers with 2,865 end-users subscribing to this service.

The second area of focus is the sales and marketing strategy within the North American market. Our management believes that continued investment in this key area is required to help the development of the MAM brand. The North America automotive aftermarket presents a significant opportunity and we continue to invest in our marketing strategies. Our attendance at industry trade shows and conferences, together with other branding initiatives and advertising in top trade publications, remain successful tactics for increasing brand awareness and expanding our pipeline of new business opportunities.

Events such as the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) and the Speed Equipment Manufacturing Association Show (SEMA) provide us with the opportunity to reach a large number of potential customers in a short period of time, with hands-on, face-to-face interactions that allow us to demonstrate relevant business solutions. These events allow us to generate interest, grow our pipeline and move previously qualified deals through the sales cycle.

The third area of focus relates to the launch of our information service, Autocat+ in North America. Autocat+ is an auto parts catalog that uses the DaaS distribution model. MAM Ltd. centrally hosts and maintains the data, which is accessed by users via MAM's business management software, a standalone desktop application, or web application. Data can also be 'consumed' via a web service for integration into business-to-consumer websites. Information in Autocat+ is maintained through an automatic verification and standardization process, with updates published daily.

In MAM UK, there are approximately 10,000 end-users (warehouse distributors, parts stores and auto service providers) who use our information products, for which a monthly or annual subscription fee is charged. Our management believes that the recent launch of Autocat in North America not only presents an opportunity for additional revenue generation, but also adds value and strengthens the appeal of our complementary business management solutions.

The fourth area is within the UK market, where our focus is on new business growth, maximizing existing customer revenue and customer retention. The company continues to monitor and assess expansion into new vertical markets, including the wholesale construction materials market. These vertical markets include plumbing, building, lumber, and electrical wholesale distribution companies. Ongoing product development enables the company to offer added value to existing customers, generate additional cross-sell and upsell opportunities, and create compelling USPs for customer acquisition.

The fifth area is the continued investment in research and development that will allow us to further extend the functionality of our solutions in order to create additional value for our customers. New product development and product enhancement helps the company strengthen customer retention, protect market share, and target new markets. Most recently we released a new version of Autopart in the UK, Ireland and North America, and a new version of our catalog in the UK and Ireland. Both new releases are being marketed as 'no-cost' upgrades to eligible customers. We will continue with on-going reinvestment into our products to ensure our market competitiveness and further grow our business. This continued investment in research and development is taking place at the same time as we progress the Goodyear and ALLDATA projects.

In addition to internal development, our management will also look to add complementary tools and applications opportunistically as we did with our recent acquisition of Origin Software Solutions, a UK-based provider of e-commerce solutions for the automotive aftermarket. Origin has extensive experience in the industry and complements our existing product portfolio. The Origin acquisition will enable us to upsell to existing customers, increase average revenue per customer, and make our offering more appealing to prospects.

Our Progress

At present, many of our customers in the UK and Ireland have our software installed on-premise. However, market acceptance of cloud computing for mission-critical enterprise applications has become increasingly common in recent years, since software can be delivered cost-effectively, reliably, and securely to businesses over the Internet without the need for these businesses to purchase supporting software and hardware for an on-premise system, or the need to keep IT people on staff to monitor and upgrade such a system.

We introduced our first subscription-based service solution over the Internet in 2005 in the UK and Ireland, and we began marketing our first cloud based solution to customers in North America in 2013. Since that time, we have significantly expanded our cloud-based offerings and are offering customers that maintain on-premise installations incentives to move to our cloud solutions. While transitioning our MAM UK customers to a SaaS model results in a decrease in our up-front revenue recognition, there are a number of distinct advantages of moving to subscription licensing:

Our cloud model is based on Microsoft .Net, HTML5 and SQL technologies that provides both open and secure platform with support for user experiences on both desktop and mobile devices. Our customers that have moved away from traditional on-premise software to our cloud-based service applications benefit by substantially reducing the complexity typical of on-premise software implementations, customizations, and upgrades. Through cloud computing, we supply and manage the hardware, infrastructure, ongoing maintenance, and backup services for our customers.

We install the latest version of our software for our customers, thereby reducing their need to buy and maintain their own IT resources. As a part of our cloud-based model, we will provide installation, training, and support services to our customers. In the North American market, we have a smaller customer base and by offering a cloud-based solution will prove to be an important part of our strategic growth. We anticipate that this solution will positively impact the marketplace and ultimately increase our market share within North America.

Impact of Currency Exchange Rate

Our net revenues derived from sales in currencies other than the US dollar was 70% and 72% for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2016, as compared to 77% and 75% for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2015. As the US dollar strengthens in relation to the Great Britain Pound ("GBP"), our revenue and income, which is reported in US dollars, is negatively impacted. Changes in the currency values occur regularly and in some instances may have a significant effect on our results of operations.

Income and expenses of our MAM UK. subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. During the nine months ended March 31, 2016, the exchange rate was US $1.49985 per 1GBP, compared with US $1.5903 per 1GBP for the nine months ended March 31, 2015.

Assets and liabilities of our MAM UK. subsidiaries are translated into US dollars at the period-end exchange rates. The exchange rate used for translating our MAM UK. subsidiaries was US $1.43677 per 1GBP at March 31, 2016 and US $1.5717 per 1GBP at June 30, 2015.

Currency translation gain and (loss) adjustments are accumulated as a separate component of stockholders' equity, which totaled $(252,000) and $(673,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $(1,068,000) and $(1,926,000) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Results of Operations

Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 compared with the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 were as follows:

Revenues. Revenues were $7,916,000 and $23,812,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, an increase of $257,000, or 3%, and an increase of $75,000, respectively, compared with revenues of $7,659,000 and $23,737,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The strength in the US dollar vs. GBP had an effect on reported revenues from our MAM UK operations.

Revenues were $7,916,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $257,000 as compared with revenues of $7,659,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Revenues from our MAM UK operations were 3,833,000GBP for the three months ended March 31, 2016; an increase of 4,000GBP, as compared with revenues of 3,829,000GBP for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The US dollar-denominated revenues for the MAM UK operations were $5,499,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $5,827,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $328,000, or 6%. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, UK and Ireland recurring revenues increased 316,000GBP, or 11%, to 3,201,000GBP from 2,885,000GBP for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and system sales decreased 312,000GBP, or 33%, to 632,000GBP from 944,000GBP. The decrease in MAM UK revenues in US dollars was primarily the result changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Excluding the effects of foreign currency, MAM UK revenues were consistent as a result of increased sales of our Autowork Online and Autopart Online products as MAM UK transitions to a SaaS model, partially offset by perpetual software sales and one time equipment sales from the prior year. Revenues from our MAM NA operations were $2,417,000, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $585,000, or 32%, as compared with revenues of $1,832,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, MAM NA recurring revenue increased $309,000, or 21%, to $1,778,000 from $1,469,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and system sales increased $275,000, or 76%, to $638,000 from $363,000 when compared with the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in MAM NA revenues are a result of overall growth in the market for both SaaS and perpetual sales and professional services.

Revenues were $23,812,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $75,000, as compared with revenues of $23,737,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, recurring revenues increased $1,285,000, or 7%, to $18,937,000 from $17,652,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, and system sales decreased $1,210,000, or 20%, to $4,875,000 from $6,085,000. Revenues from our MAM UK operations were 11,325,000GBP for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of 306,000GBP, or 3%, as compared with revenues of 11,019,000GBP for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The US dollar-denominated revenue was $16,986,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $17,524,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, which is a decrease of $538,000, or 3%. For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, MAM UK recurring revenues increased 891,000GBP, or 11%, to 9,210,000GBP for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, from 8,319,000GBP for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, and system sales decreased 585,000GBP, or 22%, from 2,700,000GBP to 2,115,000GBP. The decrease in MAM UK revenues in US dollars was primarily the result changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Excluding the effects of foreign currency MAM UK revenues increased $486,000 as a result of increased recurring revenues from the sales of our Autowork Online and Autopart Online products as MAM UK transitions to a SaaS model, partially offset by perpetual software sales and one-time equipment sales in the prior year. Revenues for our MAM NA operations were $6,826,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016; an increase of $614,000 compared with revenues of $6,212,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, MAM NA recurring revenue increased $701,000, or 16%, to $5,123,000 from $4,422,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015, and system sales decreased $87,000, or 5%, to $1,703,000 from $1,790,000 when compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in MAM NA revenues from the transition to the SaaS model was offset by higher perpetual sales and professional service revenues in the prior year.

Cost of Revenues. Total cost of revenues for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, were $3,537,000 and $10,755,000, respectively, as compared with $3,342,000 and $9,856,000, for the same periods ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The increase in cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $195,000, or 6%, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Our MAM UK operations experienced an increase of 185,000GBP from 1,507,000GBP to 1,692,000GBP for three months ended March 31, 2016, when compared to 2015, and the US dollar-denominated cost of revenues for the MAM UK operations increased by $136,000, or 6%. The increase in the MAM UK's cost of revenues was primarily attributable to increases in license costs and professional services headcount to support growth. The North America operations experienced an increase of $60,000, or 6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2015, primarily attributed to an increase in professional services headcount to support growth.

The increase in the cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was $899,000, or 9%, as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Our MAM UK operations experienced an increase of 648,000GBP, or 15%, from 4,308,000GBP to 4,956,000GBP, and the US dollar-denominated cost of revenues for the MAM UK operations increased by $582,000, or 8%. The primary drivers of the increase in the cost of revenues when compared to last year were an increase in MAM UK hardware purchased for resale, additional professional service headcount to support growth, and the expenses from Origin which was acquired on July 1, 2015. Our MAM NA operations experienced an increase of $317,000, primarily as a result of an increase in professional services headcount to support growth, increased equipment costs related to hardware sales, increased travel expenses, and additional third party subscription costs. 

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $62,000, or 1%, to $4,379,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from $4,317,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Gross profit margin decreased to 55% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, from 56% for the three months ended March 31, 2015.  Gross profit decreased $824,000, or 6%, to $13,057,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, from $13,881,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease in gross profit margins was primarily the result of the MAM UK revenue mix changing to a SaaS model and increase in equipment sales which have lower margins, and increases in professional services headcount to support growth.

Operating Expenses . The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, our operating expenses and the variance thereof:

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, operating expenses increased by $173,000, or 5% when compared with the three months ended March 31, 2015.   For the nine months ended March 31, 2016, operating expenses decreased by $555,000 or 5% compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2015. This is due to the following:

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $32,000, or 3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased primarily due to development resources in order to support new client developments. Research and development expenses decreased by $35,000, or 1%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Excluding the effects of foreign currency, research and development costs increased due to additional development resources in order to support new client development, partially offset by an increase in the capitalization of software development costs.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $98,000, or 10% during the three months ended March 31, 2016, and decreased by $302,000, or 9%, during the nine months ended March 31, 2016. The decreases for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 were primarily the result of lower headcount in MAM NA and lower commissions and staff incentives in MAM UK.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $181,000, or 14% during the three months ended March 31, 2016, and decreased by $254,000, or 6%, during the nine months ended March 31, 2016. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due costs associated with changes within the accounting and finance organization and expenses from Origin, which was acquired in fiscal 2016. The decrease for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily due to $155,000 of adjustments to management incentive plan, $150,000 reduction from realignment of the MAM NA management structure, and $196,000 of strategic goal incentives in the nine months ended March 31, 2015, which was partially offset by costs associated with changes within the accounting and finance organization in fiscal 2016 and expenses from Origin, which was acquired in fiscal 2016. 

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $58,000, or 48%, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and increased by $36,000, or 8%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2016. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016 included amortization expense from the intangible assets acquired with Origin.

Other Income (Expense). Interest expense increased by $100,000 to $104,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, and changed by $68,000 to income of $59,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to expense of $9,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in interest expense was due to the $10.5 million of borrowings under the new credit facility in December 2015 to fund a tender offer. Other income for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, included a $217,000 gain from the settlement of liabilities with certain vendors.

Income Taxes. Income taxes were $155,000, or 21% of pre-tax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $241,000, or 25% of pre-tax income, for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Income taxes were $532,000, or 20% of pre-tax income, for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $642,000, or 22% of pre-tax income, for the nine months ended March 31, 2015. Our MAM UK operations generate taxable income that is taxed at approximately 20%. Our US operations established a full valuation allowance so there was no income tax benefit recorded for the losses generated by the MAM NA operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand and cash generated from operations. To date, most of our profits have been generated in the UK and Ireland, but with the introduction of new products and efforts to streamline our MAM NA operations, we expect to see a continued increase in overall revenues with a contribution from MAM NA operations in fiscal 2016.

At March 31, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,592,000 and negative working capital of $1,666,000, including the current portion of long-term debt of $1,900,000.

Cash provided by operations was $3,052,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016.

We expect to see positive earnings and cash flows from operations for the balance of fiscal 2016, with continued growth in revenues and operating income. We have identified a number of opportunities to widen our client base within the automotive industry and are actively pursuing those at this time. We also expect to see increases in revenue in the quarter, specifically due to additional products that have been developed by the MAM NA operations, which are currently being released to customers, and the continued growth of our Autopart line of products in the North America market.

On December 1, 2015, we completed a cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") and purchased 2.0 million shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $7.50 per share for a total purchase price of $15.0 million. We canceled and retired the shares purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer.

On December 1, 2015, we entered into a new credit agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. to provide for borrowings up to $12.0 million consisting of a $9.5 million term loan and a $2.5 million revolver ("Credit Facility").  All borrowings become due and payable on December 1, 2018. The borrowings incur interest at a variable rate based on either LIBO Rate or a Prime Rate, as defined in the credit agreement, plus an applicable margin of 3.00% to 3.50%, based upon financial covenants. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we are required to comply with certain loan covenants, which include, but are not limited to, the maintenance of certain financial ratios as well as certain financial reporting requirements and limitations. Our obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by all of our US assets and are guaranteed by our US wholly-owned subsidiary.  Additionally, we pledged 65% of the stock of MAM Software Limited, our UK subsidiary. 

On December 1, 2015, we borrowed $10.5 million under the Credit Facility to fund a portion of the Tender Offer.

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents balance, the cash expected to be generated from operations, and the borrowings available under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our level of net sales, the timing and extent of expenditures to support our development activities and the continued market acceptance of our products.

We could be required, or we may choose, to seek additional funding through public or private equity or debt financing. In addition, in connection with any future acquisitions, we may require additional funding which may be provided in the form of additional debt or equity financing or a combination of both. Any such additional funding may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Working Capital

Working capital at March 31, 2016, was $(1,666,000), as compared to working capital of $5,669,000 at June 30, 2015. The working capital decrease resulted primarily from the $4,500,000 of cash used to fund a portion of the Tender Offer in December 2015, and the current portion of long-term debt of $1,900,000 that was borrowed in December 2015 to fund the remaining portion of the Tender Offer.

As of March 31, 2016, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of business management systems of $1.7 million compared to a backlog of $1.7 million at March 31, 2015. We expect to fill more than 50% of such backlog during the next six months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure of Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports, filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

As required by the SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.
