xG Technology Reports Second Quarter and First Half 2016 Results and Conference Call

 

Sarasota, Florida—August 19, 2016 —xG Technology, Inc. (“xG” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: XGTI, XGTIW), a leader in providing critical wireless communications for use in challenging operating environments, announced its second quarter and first half 2016 results. Management will hold a conference call for industry analysts on August 24, 2016 at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. The call is also being webcast (see details below).

 

Key Recent Accomplishments

 

During the second quarter:

 

·Expanded the integration of the xMax and IMT business units in sales, marketing, product and technology development and manufacturing operations, which has broadened joint solution revenue opportunities and driven internal efficiencies.
·The IMT business unit deployed the iSee™ RefCam™ Integrated Sports Camera/Transmitter at the Canadian Hockey League Memorial Cup Tournament.
·The IMT business unit launched the Mini DirectVu COFDM handheld receiver for use in law enforcement, electronic news gathering and sporting event broadcasting applications.

 

Since the end of the second quarter:

 

·The Company announced a teaming agreement with Radio IP and Abilis Solutions to test a secure wireless system for use by correctional agencies. The all-in-one solution will integrate xMax broadband network technology with the Radio IP secure VPN and CORIS® Mobile Offender Management System.
·The Company closed a public underwritten offering of its units which resulted in the Company receiving approximately $4.44 million in net proceeds. The Company will use the proceeds for corporate purposes including working capital, product development, partial reduction of liabilities, marketing activities, expanding its internal sales organization and further developing sales channels and other capital expenditures.

 

George Schmitt, CEO and Chairman of the Board of xG Technology, said, “As we deepen the integration of the xMax and IMT business units, we are aggressively pursuing opportunities that can be uniquely served by the comprehensive mission-critical voice, broadband data and video solutions xG now offers. We have begun collaborating on a number of new business projects that we have recently identified, both domestic and international, which we expect to result in revenue-generating events in the near and medium term.”

 

Roger Branton, CFO of xG Technology, said, "We are pleased to note that xG realized record quarterly revenue in second quarter of 2016, and to announce that the Company recorded an additional $2.2 million gain on the bargain purchase in connection with the acquisition of IMT that closed in the first quarter. The gain was the result of receiving the final independent fair market valuation report on IMT’s net assets. The report indicated a total fair market value of IMT's net assets of approximately $5.7 million on the date of acquisition, which resulted in a $2.7 million gain over the purchase price, $500K of which was recorded in the first quarter.”

 

Review of Results

 

Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, were $1,655,000 and $2,584,000, respectively, representing an increase of $1,281,000 and $1,627,000, respectively, from $374,000 and $957,000 in the corresponding periods in 2015. The revenue of $1,655,000 resulted from $1,595,000 from sales of equipment and $60,000 from engineering services for the three months ended June 30, 2016 which can be attributed to the acquisition of IMT. The revenue of $2,584,000 resulted from $2,451,000 from sales of equipment and $133,000 from engineering services during the six months ended June 30, 2016. Of the $2,584,000 in revenue, $131,000 was previously recorded as deferred revenue.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company had a net loss of $4.6 million and $8.6 million, respectively, compared to a net loss of $4.0 million and $7.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, or an increase of $0.6 million and $1.1 million.

 

The increase in net loss is due mainly to an increase in amortization and depreciation, general and administrative and research and development expenses.
