NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2017

Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016.  

Note 2:  Marketable Securities

Marketable securities consist of mutual fund investments principally in federal, state and local government debt securities of $13,448 as of June 30, 2017.  Such mutual fund investments are stated at market value based on quoted market prices (Level 1 inputs) and are classified as available-for-sale under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 320, with unrealized gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of shareholders’ equity. The cost of such securities at June 30, 2017 was $14,020, with $572 of cumulative unrealized losses reported at June 30, 2017.

Note 3:  Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is stated net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts of $1,035,000 and $1,069,000 as of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, respectively.

Note 4:  Loss per Share

Basic loss per share (EPS) is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the maximum dilution that would have resulted from incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and under deferred compensation agreements.

The following tables provide the components of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

The actual effect of these stock options and shares, if any, on the diluted earnings per share calculation will vary significantly depending on fluctuations in the market price of the Company's stock.

Note 5:   Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Note 7:   Stock-Based Compensation

The Company maintains stock option plans that include both incentive and non-qualified options reserved for issuance to key employees, including officers and directors.  All options are issued at fair market value at the grant date and are exercisable in varying installments according to the plans.  The plans allow for the payment of option exercises through the surrender of previously owned mature shares based on the fair market value of such shares at the date of surrender.

The Company follows ASC 718 (“Share-Based Payment”), which requires that all share based payments to employees, including stock options, be recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values and over the requisite service period.  For the three month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded non-cash compensation expense of $10,791 and $141,843, respectively ($.00 and $.02 per basic and diluted share, respectively), relating to stock compensation. For the nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the Company recorded non-cash compensation expense of $34,585 and $440,621, respectively ($.00 and $.05 per basic and diluted share, respectively), relating to stock compensation.


Note 8:  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. Other major provisions include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of time value of money in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved, in certain circumstances. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. This guidance permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method and is effective for the Company beginning in 2019; early adoption is not permitted prior to 2018. The Company is currently in the initial stages of evaluating the effect of implementing this guidance.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance on lease accounting requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for long-term leases. The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. This guidance must be applied using a modified retrospective transition approach to all annual and interim periods presented and is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2019. The Company is currently in the initial stages of evaluating the effect of implementing this guidance.

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance on simplifying several aspects of accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. This guidance requires a mix of prospective, modified retrospective, and retrospective transition to all annual and interim periods presented and is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of implementing this guidance.

Note 9:  Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets represent items to be used as a tax deduction or credit in future tax returns for which a tax benefit has been recorded in the income statement. The Company has a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future realization. The full valuation allowance is determined to be appropriate due to the Company's operating losses since fiscal year 2010 and the inherent uncertainties of predicting future operating results in periods over which such net tax differences become deductible. At September 30, 2016, the Company had $13.4 million of unrecognized net deferred tax assets available, which includes approximately $8.8 million of tax effected U.S. and foreign net operating loss carryforwards. On August 29, 2014, the Company merged with IQinVision, Inc. In connection with this merger, the Company's ability to utilize pre-merger net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards in the future is subject to certain limitations pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The annual limitation on utilization of the Company's U.S. net operating loss carryforwards is presently estimated at $500,000.

The Company recognizes potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.  The Company files U.S. Federal and State income tax returns and foreign tax returns in the United Kingdom, Germany and Israel.  The Company is generally no longer subject to tax examinations in such jurisdictions for fiscal years prior to 2013 in the U.S. and 2010 in the U.K., Germany and Israel.

Note 10:  Fair Value

The majority of the Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis, but the Company is required on a non-recurring basis to use fair value measurements when analyzing asset impairment as it relates to long-lived assets.  The carrying amounts for trade accounts, other receivables, accounts payable and revolving credit borrowings approximate fair value due to either the short-term maturity of these instruments or the fact that the interest rate of the revolving credit borrowings is based upon current market rates. 

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information about the financial instrument.  These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision.  Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Note 11: Product Warranties

The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized.  While the Company engages in product quality programs and processes, including monitoring and evaluating the quality of its component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure.  Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from its estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability may be required.

Changes in the Company's warranty liability (included in accrued expenses) for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows:

Note 12: Credit Agreement

On March 4, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with NIL Funding Corporation to provide a $3 million revolving line of credit for working capital purposes, which was subsequently amended and restated on two occasions as described below. The Agreement provides for a borrowing formula based upon eligible accounts receivable and is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. Borrowings under the Agreement bore interest at a rate of 6.75% per annum. The Agreement also provides for an unused commitment fee equal to .5% per annum. The Agreement includes provisions that are customarily found in similar financing agreements. NIL Funding Corporation is an affiliate of The InterTech Group, whose Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Julian A. Tiedemann, serves as the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors.

On August 18, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Agreement”) with NIL Funding Corporation which increased the $3 million revolving line of credit to $6 million. Under the Amended Agreement, the facility was to mature on October 2, 2018 and consisted of two credit lines of $4 million and $2 million which bore interest at rates of 6.95% per annum and 8.25% per annum, respectively. The $4 million line of credit was subject to a borrowing formula based upon eligible accounts receivable. The Amended Agreement also provided for an initial commitment fee of $60,000, which was paid at closing, as well as an unused commitment fee equal to .5% per annum. The Amended Agreement includes a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a specified minimum tangible net worth, as defined, and is otherwise substantially similar to the original Agreement with NIL Funding Corporation.

On April 20, 2017, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Amended Agreement”) with NIL Funding Corporation, under which only $2 million of the $6 million facility is subject to a borrowing formula, effectively providing the Company with $2 million of additional borrowing availability. The Second Amended Agreement also extends the maturity date of the credit facility to April 2, 2019, and reduces the Company’s minimum tangible net worth requirement, but is otherwise substantially similar to the Amended Agreement. At June 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with this covenant. As of June 30, 2017, outstanding borrowings under the Amended Agreement were $3.7 million.

In connection with the Second Amended Agreement, NIL Funding was issued a three-year warrant to purchase 1.5 million shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $.40 per share. The fair value of the warrant at the date of issuance was $438,000, which is classified as debt issuance costs and included in other assets in the accompanying balance sheet. Such costs will be amortized over the then remaining life of the credit facility on the date of issuance, which was two years.

NOTE 13: Going Concern and Liquidity

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future and, thus, do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. However, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon generating profitable operations in the future and obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.
The Company continues to incur operating losses due to decreased revenue levels and ongoing strategic investments. Since 2012, the Company has made a significant investment in the development of a completely new, and strategically critical, video management system (VMS). The first release of this product offering was launched in January 2017 and is ultimately expected to significantly enhance the Company’s market competitiveness. The funding of this major development effort has contributed to the ongoing operating losses and depletion of cash reserves. The Company has also encountered issues with certain of its camera offerings that have negatively impacted its revenues during the last twelve months. Although these issues have been substantially resolved, their market impact has lingered into fiscal 2017. In response, the Company phased in material operating expense reductions over the course of the past several years and will consider further cost cutting measures throughout the remainder of the fiscal year. However, the Company intends to continue funding the development of its new VMS platform and rebuilding its market channels.
At June 30, 2017, the Company had $2.0 million of cash reserves and a maximum of $2.3 million of borrowings available under the Credit Agreement described above, which is subject in part to a borrowing-base formula. Cash losses over the past several years have been financed in part by the sale of the Company’s two principal operating facilities and ongoing management of working capital levels. The Company expects to continue to draw on its credit facility to finance its near term working capital needs. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional funding sources to finance its aggressive product development roadmap and growth initiatives over the upcoming twelve month period. Since there are no guarantees that such plans will be

11


successful and that the Company will have sufficient available cash to sustain its operations through the next twelve month period, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.


Note 14: Subsequent Event

On July 27, 2017, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with NIL Funding Corporation (“NIL”) whereby NIL has agreed to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with a contemplated rights offering of common stock to the Company’s shareholders. The aggregate commitment by NIL is equal to the lesser of $3.0 million, or $5.0 million minus the aggregate gross proceeds of the rights offering. The price per share to be paid by NIL will be the same price to be paid by other shareholders of the Company in the proposed rights offering. NIL’s purchase of common shares under the Investment Agreement is limited in that NIL may not purchase shares of common stock under the Investment Agreement to the extent that its ownership interest combined with its affiliates would exceed 50% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.

On July 27, 2017, the Company also entered into an amendment to its April 20, 2017 Warrant to Purchase Common Stock held by NIL (the “Warrant”). Pursuant to the amendment, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement to register the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by NIL under the Investment Agreement (in addition to the 1,500,000 shares of common stock under the Warrant which the Company previously agreed to register). NIL is the Company’s secured lender (See Note 12 above) and, together with its affiliates, beneficially owned approximately 17.4% of the Company’s common stock.

NIL’s obligations are subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Investment Agreement and will terminate on October 31, 2017, subject to extension as provided in the Investment Agreement.

On August 7, 2017, the Company filed its registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the contemplated rights offering. No offer or sale of any securities will be made by the Company in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The rights offering by the Company would be launched only following the effectiveness of the registration statement relating to the offering, and will be made only by means of a prospectus.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company's consolidated financial statements for the periods indicated, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, product warranties, inventories, long lived and intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors including general market conditions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Results for the periods reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected in future periods.
 
Overview
The Company is a global producer of video management systems and system components for use in security, surveillance, safety and communication applications by a broad group of end users worldwide. The Company’s product line consists of various elements of a video system, including DVR's, NVR's, video encoders, decoders, servers and related video management software, data storage units, analog, digital and HD megapixel fixed and robotic cameras, virtual and analog matrix video switchers and controls, and system peripherals.
 
The Company sells video surveillance system components in a highly competitive worldwide marketplace principally to authorized security distributors, dealers and system integrators. Such dealers and integrators typically resell and install the Company’s products directly to end users, among other services. The Company’s sales are principally project based and are largely dependent upon winning projects, construction activities and the timing of funding.  Sales will vary from period to period depending upon many factors including seasonal and geographic trends in construction activities and the timing of deliveries due to changes in

12


project schedules and funding. The Company usually does not have a large backlog as its customer orders are typically deliverable within three months or often upon receipt of order.

The Company competes in a market of rapid technology shifts which enhance the performance capability of security systems.  As a result, the Company spends a significant amount on new product development. In the fiscal years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company incurred $5.2 million and $5.1 million of engineering and development expense or 15% and 11% of net sales, respectively. The Company’s expenditures for product development are substantially less than its major competitors.  The ongoing market shift to intelligent software solutions will continue to burden the Company’s development resources and increase ongoing annual expense for product development.  Further, the Company’s sales effort requires a high level of customer service and technical support for its products.  The Company routinely considers various strategic options that may augment or supplement its present product offerings and technology platforms.

The Company has a foreign sales and distribution subsidiary in Europe that conducts certain of its business in British pounds and Euros that represented approximately 23% of the Company’s consolidated sales for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016. It also has an Israel based engineering and development subsidiary that incurs a majority of its operating expenses in Shekels that represented approximately 14% of the Company’s operating expenses for fiscal 2016. Changes in these local foreign currency exchange rates could have a direct impact on the Company's reported financial position and results.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared with June 30, 2016

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $2.1 million (23%) to $7.4 million compared with $9.5 million in the year ago period. Sales in the Americas decreased $958,000 (14%) to $6.0 million compared with $7.0 million in the year ago period, while Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) sales decreased $1.2 million (46%) to $1.4 million compared with $2.6 million in the year ago period.  Order intake for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $2.0 million (22%) to $6.9 million compared with $8.9 million in the year ago period. Americas order intake decreased by $276,000 (5%) to $5.6 million compared with $5.9 million in the year ago period, while EMEA order intake decreased $1.7 million (57%) to $1.3 million compared with $3.0 million in the year ago period. The backlog of unfilled orders was $1.3 million at June 30, 2017 compared with $1.7 million at September 30, 2016. The Company's sales and order intake levels continued to be negatively impacted by its reliance on an uncompetitive legacy core product offering. While the Company launched an initial version of its new Valerus video management system platform in January 2017, its market impact will not be realized until Valerus gains acceptance in the marketplace. Recently launched system enhancements along with scheduled new camera line product launches during the remainder of fiscal 2017 are expected to improve the Company's market competitiveness, although no assurance can be given in that regard.

Gross profit margins were 38.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with 40.0% in the year ago period.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 decreased $504,000 to $4.1 million compared with $4.6 million for the year ago period. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the current quarter decreased $446,000 to $2.9 million compared with $3.3 million in the year ago period. Such decreases included the effects of planned staff and other cost reduction initiatives necessitated by lower revenue expectations. Engineering and development expenses decreased $58,000 to $1.2 million for the current quarter compared with $1.3 million for the year ago period as the Company continued investing in its new video management system platform.

The Company incurred an operating loss of $1.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared with an operating loss of $818,000 in the year ago period.

Interest expense increased to $120,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared with $25,000 in the year ago period as a result of increased borrowings under the Company's revolving credit agreement and non-cash amortization charges relating to the warrant granted to the Company's lender.

The Company provides for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future realization and, thus, no tax benefit has been recognized on reported pretax losses for both periods (see Note 9: Income Taxes).
 
As a result of the foregoing, the Company reported a net loss of $1.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 compared with a net loss of $843,000 in the year ago period.

Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2017 Compared with June 30, 2016

Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $8.4 million (30%) to $20.0 million compared with $28.4 million in the year ago period. Sales in the Americas decreased $5.5 million (25%) to $16.2 million compared with $21.7 million in the year ago period, while Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) sales decreased $2.9 million (43%) to $3.8 million compared with $6.7 million in the year ago period.  Order intake for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 decreased by $8.4 million (30%) to $19.5 million compared with $27.9 million in the year ago period. Americas order intake decreased by $5.1 million (24%) to $16.0 million compared with $21.1 million in the year ago period, while EMEA order intake decreased $3.3 million (48%) to $3.5 million compared with $6.8 million in the year ago period. The Company's sales and order intake levels continued to be negatively impacted by its reliance on an uncompetitive legacy core product offering. While the Company launched an initial version of its new Valerus video management system platform in January 2017, its market impact will not be realized until Valerus gains acceptance in the marketplace. Recently launched system enhancements along with scheduled new camera line product launches during the remainder of fiscal 2017 are expected to improve the Company's market competitiveness, although no assurance can be given in that regard.

Gross profit margins were 38.3% for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 compared with 37.7% in the year ago period. The year ago period margins included $150,000 (0.5%) of additional inventory provisions relating to the rework and transitioning of the Company's IQinVision camera line to a new contract manufacturing partner.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 decreased $8.9 million to $12.0 million compared with $21.0 million for the year ago period. In the year ago period, the Company charged off its entire $6.0 million goodwill carrying value. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the current year period decreased $2.6 million to $8.4 million compared with $11.0 million in the year ago period. Such decreases included the effects of planned staff and other cost reduction initiatives necessitated by lower revenue expectations. Engineering and development expenses decreased $286,000 to $3.7 million for the current year period compared with $4.0 million for the year ago period as the Company continued investing in its new video management system platform.

The Company incurred an operating loss of $4.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 compared with an operating loss of $10.2 million in the year ago period.

The Company recorded a gain on the sale of its United Kingdom based operating facility of $785,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 2016.

The Company incurred interest expense of $232,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 compared with $25,000 in the year ago period as a result of increased borrowings under the Company's revolving credit agreement and non-cash amortization charges relating to the warrant granted to the Company's lender.

The Company provides for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future realization and, thus, no tax benefit has been recognized on reported pretax losses for both periods (see Note 9: Income Taxes).
 
As a result of the foregoing, the Company reported a net loss of $4.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 compared with a net loss of $9.5 million in the year ago period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities was $2.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017. Net losses of $4.1 million for the period, exclusive of non-cash charges, were offset in part by cash generated from a $1.2 million decrease in accounts receivable, a $192,000 decrease in inventories and a $444,000 increase in trade and accrued liabilities. Net cash used in investing activities was $131,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 consisting principally of capital expenditures. Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 consisting of increased revolving credit borrowings. As a result of the foregoing, cash (exclusive of marketable securities) increased by $45,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 after the effect of exchange rate changes on the cash position of the Company.

The Company continues to incur operating losses due to decreased revenue levels and ongoing strategic investments. Since 2012, the Company has made a significant investment in the development of a completely new, and strategically critical, video management system (VMS). The first release of this product offering was launched in January 2017 and is ultimately expected to significantly enhance the Company’s market competitiveness. The funding of this major development effort has contributed to the ongoing operating losses and depletion of cash reserves. The Company has also encountered issues with certain of its camera

14


offerings that have negatively impacted its revenues during the last twelve months. Although these issues have been substantially resolved, their market impact has lingered into fiscal 2017. In response, the Company phased in material operating expense reductions over the course of the past several years and will consider further cost cutting measures throughout the remainder of the fiscal year. However, the Company intends to continue funding the development of its new VMS platform and rebuilding its market channels.
At June 30, 2017, the Company had $2.0 million of cash reserves and a maximum of $2.3 million of borrowings available under the Credit Agreement described below, which is subject in part to a borrowing-base formula. Cash losses over the past several years have been financed in part by the sale of the Company’s two principal operating facilities and ongoing management of working capital levels. During fiscal 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement that was subsequently amended and restated in August 2016 and April 2017. This Agreement currently consists of two credit lines totaling $6 million that mature in April 2019 (see Note 12 - Credit Agreement). The Company expects to continue to draw on its credit facility to finance its near term working capital needs.

In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional funding sources to finance its aggressive product development roadmap and growth initiatives over the upcoming twelve month period. In this regard, on July 27, 2017, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement with NIL Funding Corporation (“NIL”) whereby NIL has agreed to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with a contemplated rights offering of common stock to the Company’s shareholders. The aggregate commitment by NIL is equal to the lesser of $3.0 million, or $5.0 million minus the aggregate gross proceeds of the rights offering.

On August 7, 2017, the Company filed its registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the contemplated rights offering to sell up to 9.3 million shares of common stock at a discounted price per share. The rights offering by the Company would be launched only following the effectiveness of the registration statement relating to the offering, and will be made only by means of a prospectus.

Since there are no guarantees that such plans will be successful and that the Company will have sufficient available cash to sustain its operations through the next twelve month period, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or obligations (including contingent obligations) that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its September 30, 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue is generally recognized when products are sold and title is passed to the customer.  Advance service billings are deferred and recognized as revenues on a pro rata basis over the term of the service agreement.  Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 605-25-05, the Company evaluates multiple-element revenue arrangements for separate units of accounting, and follows appropriate revenue recognition policies for each separate unit.  Elements are considered separate units of accounting provided that (i) the delivered item has stand-alone value to the customer, (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered item, and (iii) if a general right of return exists relative to the delivered item, delivery or performance of the undelivered item is considered probable and substantially within the control of the Company.  As applied to the Company, under arrangements involving the sale of product and the provision of services, product sales are recognized as revenue when the products are sold and title is passed to the customer, and service revenue is recognized as services are performed. 

For products that include software and for separate licenses of the Company’s software products, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) - Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements” (ASU 2009-13).  ASU 2009-13 provides revenue recognition guidance for establishing separate units of accounting in a multiple element arrangement and requires the allocation of arrangement consideration to each deliverable in the arrangement based on the fair value of the elements.  The fair value for each deliverable is based on vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") if available, third-party evidence ("TPE") if VSOE is not available, or

15


best estimate of selling price ("BESP") if neither VSOE nor TPE is available.  BESP must be determined in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the specific elements on a standalone basis.

The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments.  If the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized.  While the Company engages in product quality programs and processes, including monitoring and evaluating the quality of its component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure.  Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from its estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability may be required.

The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence and slow moving inventory equal to the difference between the carrying cost of inventory and the estimated net realizable market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.  Technology changes and market conditions may render some of the Company’s products obsolete and additional inventory write-downs may be required.  If actual future demand or market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

The Company evaluates the establishment of technological feasibility of its software in accordance with ASC 985 ("Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed"). The Company has determined that technological feasibility for its new products is reached shortly before products are released for field testing. Costs incurred after technological feasibility has been established have not been material and are expensed as incurred.

The Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of its long-lived and intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates the recoverability of such assets based upon the expectations of undiscounted cash flows from such assets.  If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss would be recognized for the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount. Since the Company's merger with IQinVision, it has essentially redesigned its acquired camera line. Thus, the Company determined that its technology asset was fully impaired and, as a result, recorded an impairment charge of $2.0 million at September 30, 2016.

The Company's ability to recover the reported amounts of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient taxable income during the periods over which net temporary tax differences become deductible. The Company provides for a valuation allowance against all deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of future realization. The Company plans to provide a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets until such time that it can achieve a sustained level of profitability or other positive evidence arises that would demonstrate an ability to recover such assets.

The Company accrues liabilities for identified tax contingencies that result from positions that are being challenged or could be challenged by tax authorities. The Company believes that its accrual for tax liabilities is adequate for all open years, based on Management’s assessment of many factors, including its interpretations of the tax law and judgments about potential actions by tax authorities. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of any tax audit may be materially greater or lower than the amount accrued.

Accounting for restructuring activities, as compared to regular operating cost management activities, requires an evaluation of formally committed and approved plans. Restructuring activities have comparatively greater strategic significance and materiality and may involve exit activities, whereas regular cost containment activities are more tactical in nature and are rarely characterized by formal and integrated action plans or exiting a particular product, facility or service.

The Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to labor, product and other matters.  The Company assesses the likelihood of an adverse judgment or outcomes for these matters, as well as the range of potential losses.  A determination of the reserves required, if any, is made after careful analysis.  The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments.
