NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of iPass Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements that accompany these notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for December 31, 2012, were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The interim financial information is unaudited but reflects all normal adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair presentation for the interim periods presented. This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results that the Company experiences may differ materially from those estimates. Estimates are used for, but not limited to the valuation of accounts receivables, other long-lived assets, network access costs, stock-based compensation, legal contingencies, and income taxes.

The Company reports comprehensive loss in a single continuous financial statement within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. The Company’s comprehensive loss is equivalent to its net loss because the Company does not have any transactions that are recorded through other comprehensive income (loss).

Note 2. Fair Value

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction in the principal or most advantageous market between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

    Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

    Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

 

    Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Table of Contents

The recurring fair value measurements of these financial assets (excluding cash) and financial liabilities were determined using the following inputs at September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively:

(1) Held in cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
(2) Lease liabilities are recorded at fair value and are included as liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The lease liabilities were recorded in connection with lease abandonment plans implemented in 2009. Management made assumptions in determining the fair value of the lease liabilities. The discounted cash flow valuation technique used to determine fair value included inputs, such as the future rent payment schedule, the discount rate and sublease income based on the executed sublease agreement through the end of the lease terms.

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 from December 31, 2012, through September 30, 2013.

As of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, the carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximated fair value due to their short maturities.

The Company did not retire any property and equipment during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company retired approximately $0.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively, of gross property and equipment, nearly all of which were fully depreciated.

During January 2013, the Company went “live” with a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Accordingly, approximately $3.4 million of capitalized costs related to the ERP implementation was reclassified from capital work-in-progress to computer software.

Note 6. Accrued Restructuring

During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company announced restructuring plans (the “2009 Plans”) to reduce operating costs and focus resources on key strategic priorities, which resulted in a workforce reduction of 146 positions across all functional areas and abandonment of certain facilities and termination of a contract obligation. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had remaining cash payments of approximately $0.4 million.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company announced a restructuring plan (the “Q1 2013 Plan”) to re-align its cost structure to focus investments, resources and operating expenses on the Company’s growing Open Mobile business, which resulted in a workforce reduction of 16 positions across all functional areas and termination of a lease contract. The Company recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $0.6 million during the first quarter of 2013, which included severance, facility exit costs and other associated costs. The Company has paid approximately $0.6 million during the nine months period ending September 30, 2013.

The following is a rollforward of restructuring liability for the Q1 2013 and 2009 Plans:

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any litigation involving the Company, management does not believe any such pending legal proceeding or claim will result in a judgment or settlement that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third-parties. Certain indemnification agreements may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. If the potential loss from any indemnification claim is considered probable and the amount or the range of the loss can be estimated, the Company accrues a liability for the estimated loss. To date, claims under such indemnification provisions have not been significant.

Note 8. Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common shares as determined using the treasury stock method for outstanding stock options, restricted stock-based awards and shares issuable under the employee stock purchase plan, unless the result of adding such shares would be anti-dilutive. Unvested participating securities are included in the weighted daily average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted net income per common share, but are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share. In a net loss position, basic and diluted net loss per common share are equal, since the weighted average number of shares used to compute diluted net loss per common share excludes anti-dilutive securities, including participating securities. As a result of the Company’s net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company has excluded all potential shares of common stock from the diluted net loss per share calculation as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

Note 9. Segment and Geographical Information

The Company’s two reportable operating segments are: Mobility Services and iPass Unity Network Services (“iPass Unity”; formerly known as Managed Network Services). The Mobility Services segment includes services that help enterprises manage the networks, connections and devices used by their mobile workforce. The iPass Unity segment provides customers with Wi-Fi and Wide Area Network solutions. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”) is the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM allocates resources to and assesses the performance of each operating segment, using information about its revenue, segment income or loss from operations before income taxes, excluding amortization of intangibles, and restructuring.

The accounting policies of the reportable operating segments are substantially the same as those the Company uses for its condensed consolidated financial statements. All direct costs are allocated to the respective operating segments. In addition to direct costs, certain indirect costs are allocated to each operating segment including costs relating to shared services in management, finance, legal, human resources, facilities, and information technology. Indirect costs are allocated based on headcount, salaries and operating

segment revenue. The total pool of operating costs and network access costs allocated to the reportable operating segments were $29.2 million and $31.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $91.7 million and $98.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Costs related to amortization of intangibles, and restructuring activities are not allocated to operating segments. By definition, operating segment operating income (loss) also excludes interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, and income taxes.

Revenue and operating loss for each reportable operating segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, were as follows:

Overview

iPass is a global Wi-Fi roaming leader for enterprises and telecom service providers and their consumer subscribers. We knit the world’s commercial Wi-Fi networks together to create a single global Wi-Fi network. With the acceleration of the broader Wi-Fi industry, where an ever increasing number of mobile phone, tablet and laptop are Wi-Fi enabled, and where Wi-Fi has become the preferred connectivity option for billions of devices, we believe that we are uniquely positioned to take advantage of expanding global demand for Wi-Fi. iPass was incorporated in California in July 1996 and reincorporated in Delaware in June 2000. Our corporate headquarters are located in Redwood Shores, California. We are publicly traded on NASDAQ under symbol IPAS.

Table of Contents

We provide global enterprises and telecommunications carriers with cloud-based mobility management and Wi-Fi connectivity services. Through our proprietary technology platform and global Wi-Fi network, we offer enterprises cross-device, cross-network seamless Wi-Fi connectivity services along with cost control, reporting and policy compliance management tools. We also offer global telecommunications carriers Wi-Fi enablement services that allow them to monetize their Wi-Fi networks and enable data roaming solutions for their subscribers. In addition, we design, deliver and manage tailored Wi-Fi and Wide Area Network solutions to customers in the retail, finance, healthcare, and carrier operator space throughout North America.

Strategic Mobility Assets

We believe iPass has a unique set of mobility assets that provides us with competitive advantages. We see our three core assets as follows:

Advanced Open Mobile Platform: Our Open Mobile (OM) platform is a cloud-based mobility management platform that securely manages network connectivity and subscribers across a wide variety of computing and mobile devices and provider networks. We believe this scalable subscriber management, billing and reporting platform is unique in the industry and would be time consuming and expensive to replicate.

Integrated Authentication Fabric: We have a global authentication fabric of integrated servers and software that is interconnected with approximately 140 global Wi-Fi network service providers. This infrastructure allows us to provide secure, highly-available and seamless four party global authentication, clearing and settlement of Wi-Fi users for our partners and customers.

Global Wi-Fi Footprint: We have a Wi-Fi network footprint and supply chain that consists of approximately 1.5 million commercial Wi-Fi hotspots, with hotspots in over 130 countries globally and across leading Wi-Fi venues, including major airports, convention centers, airplanes, hotels, restaurants, retail and small business locations. Our technology integration across multiple global network providers forms the basis of our network services and we believe creates a unique cost advantage for our customers.

Business Portfolio and Our Strategy

Our business consists of two operating segments: (i) Mobility Services and (ii) iPass Unity Network Services (“iPass Unity”; formerly known as Managed Network Services). Our Mobility Services segment comprises two service offerings: (1) our Open Mobile Enterprise Services, and (2) our Open Mobile Exchange.

Mobility Services

Open Mobile Enterprise Services (“iPass OME” or “OME”): iPass OME delivers enhanced network mobility services, addressing large enterprises’ needs to manage their mobility economics, high speed network connectivity requirements and proliferation of mobile devices, including the “bring-your-own-device” trend. Our growth strategy for OME consists of focusing on accelerating smartphone and tablet user adoption of the Open Mobile platform, completing the migration of our legacy-customer installed base to the OM platform, improving the end user experience on our OM platform, and enhancing our sales efforts with large multi-national customers.

Open Mobile Exchange (“iPass OMX” or “OMX”): iPass OMX service offerings extend and enhance global telecommunications carriers and service provider’s core mobility and internet offerings by integrating our Open Mobile Platform technology and our worldwide Wi-Fi Network, allowing them to connect their customers and subscribers seamlessly to preferred global Wi-Fi networks. While our OMX revenue is still significantly less than our mobility service revenue, we continue to focus on adding new global telecommunications carriers and service provider partners as customers to further grow our OMX services.

iPass Unity

iPass Unity provides customers throughout North America with accelerated Wi-Fi and Wide Area Network solutions in the retail, finance, healthcare, and carrier operator space. Based on expected demand for our managed Wi-Fi service offerings, we are focused on growing iPass Unity Network Services by providing our customers additional services that leverage synergies with our Wi-Fi mobility expertise.

For a detailed discussion regarding our business, including our strategy and our service offerings, see “Item 1. Business” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Significant Trends and Events

The following describes significant trends and events of our business during the third quarter of 2013:

Continued Focus on our Open Mobile Enterprise Business

We continued to show solid progress against three key metrics for our OME business: (i) increasing the number of Open Mobile Wi-Fi Network users; (ii) growing Open Mobile revenue; and (iii) increasing the number of active Open Mobile Platform users. We grew our percentage of Open Mobile Wi-Fi Network users as a percentage of total Wi-Fi network users from 33% in the third quarter of 2012 to 74% in the third quarter of 2013. In addition, our total Open Mobile Enterprise revenue grew from $17.6 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2012, to $33.5 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2013. We also increased our percentage of Open Mobile Platform users as a percentage of total platform users from 46% in the third quarter of 2012 to 79% in the third quarter of 2013. We believe the key to our future revenue growth is based on our ability to grow Open Mobile platform and Wi-Fi network users, primarily through the continued focus on the deployment of our Open Mobile platform on smartphone and tablet devices, growth of Open Mobile usage within existing customers, and new customer acquisition. See “Key Operating Metrics” below for a full discussion of our user metrics.

Adding Partners for our Open Mobile Exchange Business

We continue to develop our OMX business. During the third quarter of 2013, we signed two strategic partners. We are continuing to focus on expanding the number of carrier partners and the total number of potential end user customers for our Wi-Fi roaming and exchange services. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, OMX revenue more than tripled as new partners were added and deployments continue to ramp.

Continued Decline in our Legacy Revenues

Our legacy revenue includes Dial-up and 3G network revenue, and iPC related network and platform revenue. With our announcement to fully end-of-life the iPC platform effective July 1, 2012, we continue to experience anticipated revenue declines in our legacy revenue streams. Legacy revenues declined from $53.4 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2012, to $24.8 million for the nine months ending September 30, 2013. For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, legacy revenue represents less than one third of our Mobility Services total revenue. We expect our legacy revenue streams to represent a smaller percentage of our total revenue during the remainder of 2013 as customers migrate or terminate iPC contracts.

Key Operating Metrics

Described below are key metrics that we use to evaluate our operating performance and our success in transforming our business and driving future growth.

OM Wi-Fi Network Users

OM Wi-Fi Network Users is the number of our OM platform users each month in a given quarter that paid for Wi-Fi network services from iPass.

OM Platform Active Users

OM Platform Active Users is the number of users who were billed Open Mobile platform fees and who have used or deployed Open Mobile.

(1)  We have presented Average Monthly Monetized Users (referred to as “AMMU”) as a metric that we use to track and evaluate the operating performance of our overall Mobility business. The AMMU metric is based on the number of active users of our network and platform services across both our Open Mobile Enterprise offering and legacy iPC offerings. Network users are billed for their use of our Wi-Fi, Dial-up or 3G network services. Platform users are billed for their use of our legacy iPC client or our Open Mobile client. AMMU is defined as the average number of users per month, during a given quarter, for which a fee was billed by us to a customer for such users.
(2)  Wi-Fi Network Users represent unique users of the iPass Wi-Fi network. Starting from the first quarter of 2013, OM Wi-Fi Network Users include In-Flight Wi-Fi users.
(3)  Open Mobile Platform Gross Users is the total number of unique Active users and the Paying-Undeployed users on the OM platform.
(4)  Other Network Users represents unique users of Dial-up and 3G network.
(5)  Legacy Platform Users represents unique users of the legacy iPC platform.

Smartphone and Tablet Users

Smartphone and Tablet Users mean users who have deployed Open Mobile on their smartphone or tablet devices and used those devices to access Wi-Fi network services from iPass. Our focus is to increase the adoption of OM on smartphones and tablets to drive additional Wi-Fi network users and network usage.

As we continue to focus on accelerating the adoption of Smartphone and Tablet Users on our Open Mobile platform, we expect users of these devices to become an increasing percentage of our network users. Open Mobile Smartphone and Tablet Wi-Fi Network Users grew as a percentage of total OM Wi-Fi Network Users from 20% in the third quarter of 2012 to 32% in the third quarter of 2013.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”)

Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management as a measure of operating efficiency, financial performance and as a benchmark against our peers and competitors. In addition, we also use this metric to determine a portion of our incentive compensation payouts. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to understand our performance excluding the impact of items which may obscure trends in our core operating performance. Furthermore, the use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates comparisons with other companies in our industry which may use similar financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for: interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, and certain state sales and federal tax charges. We adjust for these excluded items because we believe that, in general, these items possess one or more of the

following characteristics: their magnitude and timing is largely outside of our control; they are unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course; they are unusual or infrequent and we do not expect them to occur in the ordinary course of business; or non-cash expenses involving stock option grants. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on our historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and our belief of what could occur in the future considering available information, including assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, these estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported based on these policies. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments.

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, or similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward, rather than as a liability when (1) the uncertain tax position would reduce the Net Operating Loss or other carryforward under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction and (2) the entity intends to use the deferred tax asset for that purpose. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company will adopt ASU 2013-11 for its fiscal years, and interim periods within those years ending December 31, 2014. We do not expect that this guidance will materially impact our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Results of Operations

Sources of Revenues

From a broad perspective, we report and analyze revenue under two primary offerings reflecting our operating segments: Mobility Services and iPass Unity. Within Mobility Services, we differentiate and analyze our Open Mobile and legacy generated revenues separately.

Table of Contents

Open Mobile generated revenues include:

 

    Network—Wi-Fi and minimum customer commitments based on the number of network users sourced from the Open Mobile platform.

 

    Platform—Fees based on the number of Active Open Mobile monetized platform users and fees for fully dedicated Open Mobile carrier arrangements.

 

    Other Fees and Revenue—Fees specific to providing additional value add services to Open Mobile customers.

 

    Open Mobile Exchange—Revenues generated from our OMX customers.

Legacy generated revenues include:

 

    Network—Wi-Fi and minimum customer commitments based on the number of network users sourced from the legacy iPC platform. In addition, network revenues derived from our 3G and Dial-up products are categorized as legacy network revenues.

 

    Platform—Fees based on the number of legacy iPC monetized platform users and fees related to legacy add-on platform products and related services.

 

    Other Fees and Revenue—Fees specific to providing additional value add service to legacy iPC customers.

Mobility Services Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, Mobility Services revenue decreased $3.8 million or 17% over the same period in 2012. Open Mobile revenue grew $5.0 million or 65% while legacy iPC revenue declined $8.8 million or 59%. Growth in Open Mobile revenue was primarily driven by new customer additions and customer migrations from our legacy iPC product as well as smartphone and tablet user adoption. Declines in legacy iPC revenue were driven by customer migrations to Open Mobile, anticipated usage erosion in our 3G and Dial-up services, and customer terminations after our July 1, 2012 end-of-life announcement.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, Mobility Services revenue decreased $11.6 million or 16% over the same period in 2012. Open Mobile revenue grew $17.0 million or 94% while legacy iPC revenue declined $28.6 million or 54%. Drivers of the year over year change for the nine months were materially consistent with the drivers for the year over year change for the three months noted above.

Mobility Services Operating Loss

For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Mobility Services operating loss increased by $2.4 million and $5.2 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2012, primarily due to lower gross profit of approximately $3.5 million and $8.0 million, respectively, driven by the decrease in legacy revenues and the adverse impacts from higher usage by customers on a flat rate price plans. These lower gross profits were partially offset by a decrease in operating expense, after adjusting restructuring activities that are not allocated to operating segments, of approximately $1.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively, due to ongoing cost management efforts.

iPass Unity Network Services Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, iPass Unity revenue decreased by $0.2 million or 2% over the same period in 2012, primarily due to a net decline in installed endpoints resulting from termination of customer contracts.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, iPass Unity revenue increased by approximately $0.4 million or 2% mainly due to the increase in revenue per end point of approximately 6%, partially offset by termination of customer contracts.

iPass Unity Network Services Operating Income and Loss

The iPass Unity operating income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, increased $0.5 million and $0.9 million respectively compared to the same periods in 2012 mainly due to ongoing cost reduction initiatives and improved gross margin.

Network Gross Margin

We use network gross margin as a metric to assist us in assessing the profitability of our various network services. Our overall network gross margin is defined as (Mobility Services Network revenue plus iPass Unity revenue less network access costs divided by Mobility Services Network revenue plus iPass Unity revenue).

For the three and nine months ending September 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, network gross margin decreased by 5.6 and 3.6 percentage points, respectively, primarily due to decreases in higher margin revenue streams such as monthly minimum commitment revenue, and Dial-up revenue, and the impacts from higher usage by customers on flat rate price plans.

Operating Expenses

Network Access Costs (NAC)

NAC consist of charges for network access which we pay to our network service providers and other direct cost of sales.

20


Table of Contents

The increase in general and administrative expenses of approximately $0.2 million or 1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012 was mainly due to an increase in expenses related to our going “live” with our new ERP system in January 2013 of $0.7 million, partially offset by a decrease in headcount related expense of approximately $0.1 million, and a lower rent of $0.4 million.

Restructuring Charges

During the first quarter of 2013, we announced a restructuring plan to reduce 16 positions in order to re-align our resources and operating expenses with the company’s Open Mobile initiatives and recorded approximately $0.6 million of restructuring charges, which included severance, facility exit cost and other associated costs. We made cash payments of less than $0.1 million and approximately $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. For further information, see Note 6, “Accrued Restructuring”, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q.

Other Income and Expenses

Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses

Foreign exchange gains and losses primarily include realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations impact the re-measurement of certain assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar and generate unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses. In addition, some of our network access costs are invoiced in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The transactional settlement of these outstanding invoices and other cross-currency transactions generate realized foreign exchange gains or losses depending on the fluctuation of exchange rates between the date of invoicing and the date of payment.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we did not enter into any hedging contracts. Foreign exchange losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million respectively, primarily due to weakening of the U.S. dollar against Euro and British pound at the time we settled certain non-U.S. Dollar denominated network access costs as well as the unfavorable re-measurement of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. Foreign exchange losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 were less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. The income tax expense recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, primarily related to foreign taxes on expected profits in the foreign jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash and cash equivalents of $25.2 million at September 30, 2013, compared to $26.8 million at December 31, 2012.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $3.6 million for the same period in 2012 mainly due to investment in our new ERP system in 2012 that went “live” in January 2013.

Table of Contents

Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net cash provided by financing activities was $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, due to proceeds from the exercise of stock options and purchases of stock under our employee stock purchase plan.

Sources of Cash and Future Cash Requirements

We have historically relied on existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flow from operations for our liquidity needs. We use a professional investment management firm to manage a large portion of our cash which is invested primarily in money market accounts. We believe that based on our current business plan and revenue prospects and our anticipated cash flows from operations, our existing cash balances will be sufficient to meet our working capital and operating resource expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months.

The amount of cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries as of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, was $0.8 million and $1.4 million, respectively. We currently do not intend to distribute any of our cumulative earnings by our foreign subsidiaries to the parent company in the U.S.

Primary Uses of Cash

Our principal use of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was for network access costs, payroll related expenses and general operating expenses including marketing, office rent, capital expenditures, and settlement of remaining restructuring obligations.

(1)  In the normal course of our business, we have signed contracts with certain network service providers under which we have minimum purchase commitments. These commitments expire on various dates through July 2016.

Subsequent to September 30, 2013, the Company entered into a future minimum purchase commitment to acquire enterprise database software and infrastructure hardware of approximately $4.0 million to be paid over the next three years.

For information on our contractual commitments at December 31, 2012, see “Commitments” in Part 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. Contractual commitments at December 31, 2012, were $11.5 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As part of our ongoing business, we do not participate in transactions that generate material relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements at September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Exchange Rate Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent in conducting business globally in numerous currencies, of which the most significant to our operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, were the Euro, the British Pound, and the Indian Rupee. We are primarily exposed to foreign currency fluctuations related to network access costs and other operating expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. As such, we benefit from a stronger U.S. Dollar and may be adversely affected by a weaker U.S. Dollar relative to each foreign currency. Currently, we do not enter into currency forward

 

22


Table of Contents

exchange or option contracts to hedge foreign currency exposures. The impact of foreign currency fluctuations is also discussed in “Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses” under Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $25.2 million, restricted cash of $0.3 million and no short-term investments. As of December 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $26.8 million, restricted cash of $1.0 million and no short-term investments. Our cash balances are held primarily in bank deposits and money market accounts with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase. As a result, we do not believe we are exposed to material interest rate risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management of iPass conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Disclosure Control and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within iPass have been detected.
