TOWERSTREAM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Organization and Nature of Business

Towerstream Corporation (referred to as “Towerstream” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware in December 1999. During its first decade of operations, the Company's business activities were focused on delivering fixed wireless broadband services to commercial customers over a wireless network transmitting over both regulated and unregulated radio spectrum. The Company's fixed wireless service supports bandwidth on demand, wireless redundancy, virtual private networks, disaster recovery, bundled data and video services. The Company provides services to business customers in New York City, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Miami, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Philadelphia, Las Vegas-Reno and Providence-Newport. The Company's “Fixed Wireless” business has historically grown both organically and through the acquisition of five other fixed wireless broadband providers in various markets.

Note 2. Liquidity, Going Concern, and Management Plans

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $9.0 million and working capital of approximately $6.2 million. The Company incurred significant operating losses since inception and continues to generate losses from operations and as of June 30, 2017, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $183.9 million. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date these financial statements are issued. Management has also evaluated the significance of these conditions in relation to the Company’s ability to meet its obligations. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company has raised a total of $9,130,000 and converted $5,000,000 of long-term debt into preferred stock. In addition, the Company has monitored and reduced certain of its operating costs over the course of 2016 and into the first half of 2017. Historically, the Company has financed its operations through private and public placement of equity securities, as well as debt financing and capital leases. The Company’s ability to fund its longer term cash requirements is subject to multiple risks, many of which are beyond its control. The Company intends to raise additional capital, either through debt or equity financings or through the potential sale of the Company’s assets in order to achieve its business plan objectives. Management believes that it can be successful in obtaining additional capital; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to do so. There is no assurance that any funds raised will be sufficient to enable the Company to attain profitable operations or continue as a going concern. To the extent that the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may need to curtail or cease its operations and implement a plan to extend payables or reduce overhead until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.

Note 3. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and with Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2017 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year for any future period.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A Amendment No. 2 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company’s accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A Amendment No. 2 for the year ended December 31, 2016, and updated, as necessary, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Retroactive Adjustment for Reverse Stock Split. On July 7, 2016, the Company effected a one-for-twenty reverse stock split of its common stock. Consequently, all earnings per share and other share related amounts and disclosures have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates include fair value of certain financial instruments, carrying value of intangible assets, reserves for accounts receivable and accruals for liabilities.

Concentration of Credit Risk. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. At times, our cash and cash equivalents may be uninsured or in deposit accounts that exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalent balances of approximately $8.7 million in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.

Revenue Recognition. The Company generally enters into contractual agreements with its customers for periods ranging between one to three years. The Company recognizes the total revenue provided under a contract ratably over the contract period, including any periods under which the Company has agreed to provide services at no cost. The Company applies the revenue recognition principles set forth under the United States Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, (“SAB 104”) which provides for revenue to be recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery or installation has been completed, (iii) the customer accepts and verifies receipt, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Deferred Revenues. Customers are billed monthly in advance. Deferred revenues are recognized for that portion of monthly charges not yet earned as of the end of the reporting period. Deferred revenues are also recognized for certain customers who pay for their services in advance.

Intrinsic Value of Stock Options and Warrants. The Company calculates the intrinsic value of stock options and warrants as the difference between the closing price of the Company’s common stock at the end of the reporting period and the exercise price of the stock options and warrants.

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in an acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is reviewed annually in the fourth quarter for impairment, or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company initially performs a qualitative assessment of goodwill which considers macro-economic conditions, industry and market trends, and the current and projected financial performance of the reporting unit. No further analysis is required if it is determined that there is a less than 50 percent likelihood that the carrying value is greater than the fair value. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2017.

Recent Accounting Standards. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2019 as a result of ASU 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date," which was issued by the FASB in August 2015 and extended the original effective date by one year. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

There have been four new ASUs issued amending certain aspects of ASU 2014-09, ASU 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net),” was issued in March 2016 to clarify certain aspects of the principal versus agent guidance in ASU 2014-09. In addition, ASU 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” issued in April 2016, amends other sections of ASU 2014-09 including clarifying guidance related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers — Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” provides amendments and practical expedients to the guidance in ASU 2014-09 in the areas of assessing collectability, presentation of sales taxes received from customers, noncash consideration, contract modification and clarification of using the full retrospective approach to adopt ASU 2014-09. Finally, ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” was issued in December 2016, and provides elections regarding the disclosures required for remaining performance obligations in certain cases and makes other technical corrections and improvements to the standard. With its evaluation of the impact of ASU 2014-09, the Company will also consider the impact on its financial statements related to the updated guidance provided by these four new ASUs.

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-04: “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 017-04”), which removes Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. It is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment test performed with a measurement date after January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2017-09: Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting which clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The standard is effective beginning after December 15, 2017; early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). ASU 2017-11 consists of two parts. The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update re-characterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. For all other entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in Part II of this Update do not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Reclassifications. Certain accounts in the prior year’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the current year’s condensed consolidated financial statements. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported net loss.

Subsequent Events. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of this filing.

Note 4. Discontinued Operations

During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company decided to exit the business conducted by Hetnets and curtailed activities in its smaller markets. The remaining network, located in New York City (or “NYC”), was the largest and had a lease access contract with a major cable company. As a result, the Company explored opportunities during the fourth quarter of 2015 and into the first quarter of 2016 to sell the NYC network. On March 9, 2016, the Company completed a sale and transfer of certain assets pursuant to an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with a large cable company (the "Buyer"). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Buyer assumed certain rooftop leases and acquired ownership of and the right to operate the Wi-Fi access points and related equipment associated with such leases. The Company retained ownership of all backhaul and related equipment, and the parties entered into an agreement under which the Company provides backhaul services to the Buyer. The Agreement is for a three-year period with two one-year renewals and is cancellable by the Buyer on sixty days’ notice. In connection with the Agreement, the Company transferred to the Buyer a net book value of network assets aggregating $2,660,041 in exchange for the backhaul agreement valued at $3,837,783. The backhaul agreement has been recorded as an intangible asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As a result, during the first quarter of 2016, the Company recognized a gain of $1,177,742 in its discontinued operations.

The Company had determined that it would not be able to sell the remaining network locations in New York City. As a result, the Company recognized charges totaling $1,585,319 in the first quarter of 2016 which included $453,403 representing the estimated cost to settle lease obligations, $528,364 to write off network assets which could not be redeployed into the fixed wireless network, $110,500 related to security deposits which are not expected to be recovered, and $493,052 related to the accelerated expensing of deferred acquisition costs. These costs were partially offset by a $1,244,284 reduction in the accrual for terminated lease obligations that was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015. This reduction reflects the outcome of settlements negotiated in the first quarter of 2016 with certain landlords. The operating results and cash flows for Hetnets have been presented as discontinued operations in these condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented

This note (the “Note”) matures on October 16, 2019 and accrues interest on the basis of a 360-day year at:

a)	A rate equal to the greater of: i) the sum of the one-month Libor rate on any given day plus 7% or ii) 8% per annum. The one-month Libor rate was 1.23% as of June 30, 2017. Interest accrued at this rate is paid in cash at the end of each quarter; plus

b)	A rate of 4% per annum. Interest accrued at this rate is added to the principal amount at the end of each quarter.

This Note is secured by a first-priority lien and security interest in all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding the capital stock of the Company, and certain capital leases, contracts and assets secured by purchase money security interests.

The Note contains representations and warranties by the Company and the lender (the “Lender”), certain indemnification provisions in favor of the Lender and customary covenants (including limitations on other debt, liens, acquisitions, investments and dividends), and events of default (including payment defaults, breaches of covenants, a material impairment in the Lender’s security interest or in the collateral, and events relating to bankruptcy or insolvency). The Note contains several restrictive covenants and the most significant of which requires the Company to maintain a minimum cash balance of $6,500,000 at all times. The Company was not in compliance with one of the Note covenants as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and such violation was waived by the lender on June 14, 2017 effective March 31, 2017. The Company is in compliance with the Note covenants as of June 30, 2017. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, an additional 5% interest rate will be applied to the outstanding loan balances, and the Lender may terminate its lending commitment, declare all outstanding obligations immediately due and payable, and take such other actions as set forth in the Note to secure its interests. Such amount was not assessed by the lender.

The Company has the option to prepay the Note in the minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 plus integral amounts of $1,000,000 beyond that amount subject to certain prepayment penalties. Mandatory prepayments are required upon the occurrence of certain events, including but not limited to: i) the sale, lease, conveyance or transfer of certain assets, ii) issuance or incurrence of indebtedness other than certain permitted debt, iii) issuance of capital stock redeemable for cash or convertible into debt securities; and iv) any change of control.

A discount of $6,406,971 to the face value of the Note was recorded upon its issuance and that discount is being amortized over the term of the Note using the effective interest rate method. That discount consisted of:

$2,463,231 representing the fair value of warrants simultaneously issued to the Lender for the purchase of up to 120,000 and 60,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $25.20 and $0.20 per share, respectively, through April 2022. The fair value of these warrants was calculated utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model;

b)	$2,893,739 in costs incurred associated with obtaining this financing arrangement which consisted primarily of professional fees; and

c)	$1,050,000 related to a 3% original issue discount.

On November 8, 2016 and in connection with a financing transaction, an investor acquired $5,000,000 of the Company's obligations to the Lender consisting of principal and accrued interest of $4,935,834 and $64,166, respectively. The investor then immediately exchanged such obligations for 1,000 shares of the Company's Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”) and warrants for the purchase of up to 4,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In connection with that exchange, the Company:

Wrote-off the portion of the unamortized debt discount and deferred financing costs associated with the exchanged principal and recorded a charge to interest expense of $331,609. The accrued interest and the adjustment to the unamortized debt discount activity described in this paragraph are separate from and unrelated to the amounts appearing in the following paragraphs; and

b)	Recorded a non-cash loss on extinguishment of debt charge of $500,000. This amount represents the difference between the fair value of the Series D Preferred Stock of $5,500,000 and the carrying amount of the debt of $5,000,000 as of the date of the exchange.

The Company recorded interest expense of $1,019,591 and $1,125,988 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company recorded interest expense of $1,985,030 and $2,240,703 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 respectively. Of those amounts, the Company paid to the Lender $1,323,353 and $1,493,803 and added $661,677 and $746,900 of interest to the principal amount of the Note during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Company recorded amortization expense of $266,322 and $431,273 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Amortization expense totaled $557,022 and $876,234 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively and classified those amounts as interest expense.

Note 10. Capital Stock

On January 9, 2017, the holder of 500,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”) elected to convert them into shares of common stock. In accordance with the conversion terms applicable to the Series E Preferred Stock, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock.

On various dates from January 26, 2017 to March 23, 2017, inclusive, the holder of 390 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series F Preferred Stock”) elected to convert them into shares of common stock. In accordance with the conversion terms applicable to the Series F Preferred Stock, the Company issued 1,950,000 shares of common stock.

On April 4 and April 13, 2017, the holder of 200 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock elected to convert them into shares of common stock. In accordance with the conversion terms applicable to the Series F Preferred Stock, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock.

On May 26, 2017, the Company exchanged 1,233 shares of the outstanding Series D Preferred Stock and 643 shares of the outstanding Series F Preferred Stock for 938 shares of newly created Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series G Preferred Stock”) and 938 shares of the newly created Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred Stock”).

The key preferences, rights, and limitations of the Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock, are as follows:

The Stated Value of each share of Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock is $1,000;

ii.

Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock may be converted into common shares at any time. The number of common shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock is determined by multiplying the number of shares of Series G Preferred Stock being converted by their stated value of $1,000 per share and then dividing by the conversion price of $0.10 per common share. The number of common shares issuable upon the conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock is determined by multiplying the number of shares of Series H Preferred Stock being converted by their stated value of $1,000 per share and then dividing by the conversion price of $0.125 per common share;

iii.

In the event of a Liquidation Event, each share of Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock will be entitled to a per share preferential payment equal to 100% of the stated value of such Series H Preferred Stock, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any. All subsequent issuances and junior preferred issuances of our capital stock will be junior in rank to the Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock with respect to the preferences as to dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company. The holders of Series H Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive dividends if and when declared by the Company. The Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock shall participate on an “as converted” basis, with all dividends declared on our common stock. In addition, if the Company grants, issues or sells any rights to purchase securities pro rata to all of the Company’s record holders of its common stock, each holder will be entitled to acquire such securities applicable to the granted purchase rights as if the holder had held the number of shares of common stock acquirable upon complete conversion of all Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock then held.

iv.

The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the holder would beneficially own more than 9.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock, which beneficial ownership limitation may be decreased by the holder at its option. Each holder is entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company, and shall have the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of such holder’s Series G and Series H Preferred Stock, but not in excess of the beneficial ownership limitations.

Additionally, upon the issuance of the Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature and a deemed dividend in the amount of $1,905,570. This amount was calculated using the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the day of the transaction and subtracting the conversion price per share. This difference was then multiplied by the number of shares of common stock into which the shares of Series G Preferred Stock and Series H Preferred Stock were convertible into on the date of the transaction.

On various dates from May 30, 2017 to June 29, 2017, inclusive, the holder of 437 shares of Series H Preferred Stock elected to convert them into shares of common stock. In accordance with the conversion terms applicable to those preferred shares, the Company issued 3,496,000 shares of common stock.

On June 30, 2017, the holder of 200 shares of Series G Preferred Stock elected to convert them into shares of common stock. In accordance with the conversion terms applicable to those preferred shares, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock.

Note 11. Stock Options and Warrants

Stock Options

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value options issued to employees, directors and consultants. Compensation expense, including the estimated effect of forfeitures, is recognized over the period of service, generally the vesting period. Stock compensation expense and the weighted average assumptions used to calculate the fair values of stock options granted during the periods indicated were as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017			2016			2017			2016
Risk-free interest rate	1.6%	-	1.7%	1.1%	-	1.2%	1.6%	-	1.7%	1.1%	-	1.4%
Expected volatility		113%		80%	-	83%	110%	-	113%	78%	-	83%
Expected life (in years)		4.2			4.2			4.2			4.2
Expected dividend yield		-			-			-			-
Estimated forfeiture rates		20%		1%	-	7%		20%		1%	-	7%
Weighted average per share grant date fair value		$0.11			$0.11			$0.13			$0.12
Stock-based compensation		$315,540			$140,474			$667,821			$436,859

The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve. The expected volatility was based upon the historical volatility for the Company’s common stock. The Company utilized historical data to determine the expected life of stock options. The dividend yield reflected the fact that the Company has not historically paid dividends, and does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Stock-based compensation is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The unamortized amount of stock options expense totaled $507,911 as of June 30, 2017 which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.

Option transactions under the stock option plans during the six months ended June 30, 2017 were as follows:

	Number			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding as of January 1, 2017		2,106,889		$	5.30
Granted during 2017		3,831,212			0.17
Exercised		-			-
Cancelled /expired		(117,514	)		23.36
Outstanding as of June 30, 2017		5,820,587		$	1.56
Exercisable as of June 30, 2017		2,342,563		$	3.40

Grants under the stock option plans during the six months ended June 30, 2017 were as follows:

	Number
Consultant grants		25,000
Executive grants		3,793,712
Annual grants to outside directors		12,500
Total		3,831,212

Options granted during the reporting period had a term of ten years. All options were issued at an exercise price equal to the fair value on the date of grant. Consultant grants vest six months from the date of issuance. Executive grants, except as noted below, vesting periods range from vesting immediately upon issuance, vesting quarterly over a two-year period, vesting annually for one year then quarterly over the next two years period, and vesting annually for one year then quarterly over the next three years period from the date of issuance. Director grants vest over a one year period from the date of issuance. The aggregate fair value of the options granted was $493,090 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

On January 24, 2017, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Ernest Ortega wherein the Company issued options for the purchase of up to 2,037,085 shares of the Company common stock at $0.17 per share for a period of ten years. Those options vest as follows: 940,193 will vest on January 24, 2018; 626,795 will vest in eight quarterly installments during the twenty-four months ending January 24, 2020; 548,446 will vest upon the achievement of three consecutive quarters of positive cash flow; and 548,446 will vest upon the sale of the Company's earth station assets in Miami, Florida for gross proceeds equal to or greater than $15,000,000.

Certain stock options awarded to Ernest Ortega, Chief Executive Officer, in conjunction with his 2017 employment agreement contained performance based criteria. The fair value of the awards is determined based on the market value of the underlying stock price at the grant date and marked to market over the vesting period based on probabilities and projections of the underlying performance measures. The aggregate fair value of the performance based options granted was $140,708 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The Company has not recorded any expense associated with the performance based stock options issued in the six month period ended June 30, 2017. The Company will continue to evaluate the probability of achieving the criteria associated with performance based stock options and will record any associated compensation expense at such time.

On February 3, 2017, the Company awarded options for the purchase of up to 1,189,987 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.18 per share for a period of ten years. Terms of such option awards conformed to the Company's standard form of option agreement which includes a provision for cashless exercise. The awards consisted of options for 500,653 shares to Mr. Philip Urso for his past service as Interim Chief Executive Officer, options for 439,008 shares to Mr. Arthur Giftakis, the Company's Chief Operating Officer, and options for 250,326 shares to Mr. Frederick Larcombe, the Company's former Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Urso's options vested 100% upon issuance and the options issued to Messrs. Giftakis and Larcombe vest ratably on a quarterly basis over the eight quarters immediately following the date of the awards.

Note 12. Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Under the Company’s 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP Plan”), participants can purchase shares of the Company’s stock at a 15% discount. A maximum number of 25,000 shares of common stock can be issued under the ESPP Plan of which all of the authorized shares have been issued as of June 30, 2017. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, a total of 0 and 2,240 shares were issued under the ESPP Plan with a fair value of $0 and $358, respectively. The Company recognized $0 and $53 of stock-based compensation related to the 15% discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. The Company recognized $1,152 and $2,936 of stock-based compensation related to the 15% discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

Note 13. Fair Value Measurement

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. There were no changes in the valuation techniques during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Note 14. Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share has been calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share because they were anti-dilutive. The exercise or issuance of these common stock equivalents would dilute earnings per share if the Company becomes profitable in the future

Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliations to GAAP Measures

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). We use certain Non-GAAP measures to monitor our business performance. These Non-GAAP measures are not recognized under GAAP. Accordingly, investors are cautioned about using or relying on these measures as alternatives to recognized GAAP measures. Our methods of calculating these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Characteristics of Revenues and Expenses

Infrastructure and access expenses relate directly to maintaining our network and providing connectivity to our customers. Infrastructure primarily relates to our Points-of-Presence ("PoPs") where we install a substantial amount of equipment, mostly on the roof, which we utilize to connect numerous customers to the internet. We enter into long term lease agreements to maintain our equipment on these PoPs and these rent payments comprise the majority of our infrastructure and access costs. Access expenses primarily consist of bandwidth connectivity agreements that we enter into with national service providers.

Network operations costs relate to the daily operations of our network and ensuring that our customers have connectivity within the terms of our service level agreement. We have employees based in our largest markets who are dedicated to ensuring that our network operates effectively on a daily basis. Other employees monitor network operations from our network operating center which is located at our corporate headquarters. Payroll comprises approximately 55% to 60% of network operations costs. Information technology systems and support comprises approximately 15% to 20% of network operations costs.

Customer support costs relate to our continuing communications with customers regarding their service level agreement. Payroll comprises approximately 83% to 88% of customer support costs. Other costs include shipping, troubleshooting, and facilities related expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of the salaries, benefits, travel and other costs of our sales and marketing teams, as well as marketing initiatives and business development expenses.

General and administrative expenses include costs attributable to corporate overhead and the overall support of our operations. Salaries and other related payroll costs for executive management and finance personnel are included in this category. Other costs include accounting, legal and other professional services, and other general operating expenses.

Overview – Fixed Wireless

We provide fixed wireless broadband services to commercial customers and deliver access over a wireless network transmitting over both regulated and unregulated radio spectrum. Our service supports bandwidth on demand, wireless redundancy, virtual private networks, disaster recovery, bundled data and video services. We currently provide service to business customers in twelve metropolitan markets.

As of June 30, 2017, we operated in twelve metropolitan markets consisting of New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Miami, Seattle, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Philadelphia, Las Vegas-Reno and Providence-Newport. Although we provide services in multiple markets, these operations have been aggregated into one reportable segment based on the similar economic characteristics among all markets, including the nature of the services provided and the type of customers purchasing such services. The markets were launched at different times, and as a result, may have different operating metrics based on their size and stage of maturation. We incur significant up-front costs in order to establish a network presence in a new market. These costs include building PoPs and network costs. Other material costs include hiring and training sales and marketing personnel who will be dedicated to securing customers in that market. Once we have established a network presence in a new market, we are capable of servicing a significant number of customers. The rate of customer additions varies from market to market, and we are unable to predict how many customers will be added in a market during any specific period

Overview - Shared Wireless Infrastructure

As further described in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, on March 9, 2016, the Company completed a sale and transfer of certain assets to the major cable company (the “Buyer”). The asset purchase agreement ("Agreement") provided that the Buyer would assume certain rooftop leases in NYC and acquire ownership of the Wi-Fi access points and related equipment associated with operating the network. The Company retained ownership of all backhaul and related equipment and the parties entered into a backhaul services agreement under which the Company will provide bandwidth to the Buyer at the locations governed by the leases. The Agreement is for a three-year period with two one-year renewals and is cancellable by the Buyer on sixty days’ notice. The operating results and cash flows for Hetnets have been presented as discontinued operating results in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Non-recurring expenses decreased to $2,751 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $199,411 for the six month period ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $196,660, or 99%. The decrease primarily relates to the Miami lawsuit which the Company settled during the 2016. Public company costs for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $117,157 compared to $164,527 during the six months ended June 30,2016 representing a decrease of $47,370, or 29%. The decrease relates to the reduction of public company filing fees, the contract termination with our investor relation firms in 2017, offset by an increase in annual meeting expenses. Other expenses increased to $414,435 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $330,310 for the six month period ended June 30, 2016 representing an increase of $84,125, or 25%. The increase primarily relates to increased business taxes.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net totaled $2,572,821 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $3,195,411 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $622,590, or 20%. Interest expense relates to the $35,000,000 secured term loan which closed in October 2014. The decrease is primarily attributable to the $5,000,000 reduction of debt in the fourth quarter of 2016 as more fully described in Note 9, Long-Term Debt.

Discontinued Operations – Shared Wireless

Revenues. Revenues for the Shared Wireless business totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $553,302 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $553,302 or 100%. The decrease primarily related to our contract with a major cable company which was terminated in March 2016 resulting in no revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2017 versus two months of revenue in the 2016 period.

Infrastructure and Access. Infrastructure and access totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $2,523,222 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $2,523,222, or 100%. Rent expense for rooftop locations totaled zero in the 2017 period compared to $1,994,858 in the 2016 period representing a decrease of $1,994,858 or 100%. All business activities associated with the shared wireless business were terminated in the first quarter of 2016. Loss on fixed assets totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $528,364 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company sold certain network infrastructure assets to a major cable company. The Company determined to shut down the remaining network locations and recognized a loss of $528,364 which represented the net book value of capitalized installation costs as well as equipment which could not be redeployed into the fixed wireless network.

Depreciation. Depreciation totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $638,681 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. All business activities associated with the shared wireless business were terminated during the first quarter of 2016.

Network Operations. Network operations totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $192,947 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $192,947, or 100%. Certain costs were incurred in the 2016 period related to the termination of the business.

Customer Support Services. Customer support services totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $69,804 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $69,804 or 100%. The business was terminated in early March 2016.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $246 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $246, or 100%. The decrease reflects a lack of sales and marketing efforts prior to terminating the business in March 2016.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses totaled zero during the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to $105,545 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase reflects professional services fees incurred in the 2016 period for terminating the business.

Loss from Discontinued Operations. Loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled zero compared to $1,799,401 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $1,799,401, or 100% and reflects the termination of the business in March 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Changes in capital resources during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are described below.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $9.0 million and working capital of approximately $6.2 million. The Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception and continues to generate losses from operations and as of June 30, 2017, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $183.9 million. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Historically, the Company has financed its operation through private and public placement of equity securities, as well as debt financing and capital leases. The Company’s ability to fund its longer term cash requirements is subject to multiple risks, many of which are beyond its control. The Company intends to raise additional capital, either through debt or equity financings or through the potential sale of the Company’s assets in order to achieve its business plan objectives. Management believes that it can be successful in obtaining additional capital; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to do so. There is no assurance that any funds raised will be sufficient to enable the Company to attain profitable operations or continue as a going concern. To the extent that the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may need to curtail or cease its operations and implement a plan to extend payables or reduce overhead until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful

Continuing Operations

Net Cash Used In Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $1,431,794 compared to $4,389,683 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing a decrease of $2,957,889. Revenues generated from continuing operations were $516,298 lower in the 2017 period which adversely impacted cash flows available to support operating activities. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used cash of $522,976 during the 2017 period compared to $2,119,814 used in the 2016 period, which represented a total difference of $1,596,838. Changes in operating assets and liabilities generally represent timing differences regarding payments and receipts, and are normally not indicative of operating results.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $1,473,754 compared to $1,160,400 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing an increase of $313,354. Cash capital expenditures totaled $1,460,829 in the 2017 period compared to $1,160,400 in the 2016 period representing an increase of $300,429. Capital expenditures can fluctuate from period to period depending upon the number of customer additions and upgrades, network construction activity related to increasing capacity or coverage, and other related reasons.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $478,926 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1,754,706 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, representing a decrease of $2,233,632. During the 2016 period, the Company completed an equity offering which resulted in net proceeds of $2,230,000.

Discontinued Operations

Net Cash Provided by (Used In) Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $80,882 compared to $1,343,659 used for the six months ended June 30, 2016 representing an increase of $1,424,541. Operating activities for the discontinued business were terminated in March 2016 which resulted in lower cash requirements for the 2017 period. The Company also received cash proceeds in 2017 due to a refund of a security deposit associated with discontinued operations.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities. There were no investing activities during either period.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities. There were no financing activities during either period.

In January 2013, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Hetnets Tower Corporation (“Hetnets”), to operate a new business designed to leverage its fixed wireless network in urban markets to provide other wireless technology solutions and services. Hetnets built a carrier-class network which offered a shared wireless infrastructure platform, primarily for (i) co-location of customer owned antenna and related equipment and (ii) Wi-Fi access and offloading. The Company referred to this as its “Shared Wireless Infrastructure” or “Shared Wireless” business. During the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company determined to exit this business and curtailed activities in its smaller markets. The remaining network, located in New York City (or “NYC”), was the largest and had a lease access contract with a major cable company. As a result, the Company explored opportunities during the fourth quarter of 2015 and continuing into the first quarter of 2016 to sell the New York City network. On March 9, 2016, the Company completed a sale and transfer of certain assets to a major cable company (the “Buyer”). The asset purchase agreement (“Agreement”) provided that the Buyer would assume certain rooftop leases in NYC and acquire ownership of the Wi-Fi access points and related equipment associated with operating the network. The Company retained ownership of all backhaul and related equipment and the parties entered into a backhaul services agreement under which the Company will provide internet bandwidth to the Buyer at the locations governed by the leases. The Agreement is for a three year period with two, one year renewals and is cancellable by the Buyer on sixty days’ notice. The net effect of the Buyer (i) assuming certain rooftop leases, (ii) entering into a backhaul services agreement, and (iii) terminating the access agreement is projected to result in a net reduction in cash requirements of approximately $6 million annually. During the first quarter of 2016, the Company determined that it would not be able to sell the remainder of the New York City network, and accordingly, all remaining assets are being redeployed into the fixed wireless network or written off. The operating results and cash flows for Hetnets have been reclassified and presented as discontinued operating results for all periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other Considerations

Debt Financing. In October 2014, we entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Melody Business Finance, LLC (the “Lender”). The Lender provided us with a five-year $35,000,000 secured term loan (the “Financing”). The Financing was issued at a 3% discount and the Company incurred $2,893,739 in debt issuance costs. Net proceeds were $31,056,260. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company entered into a financing agreement with an investor whereas the investor acquired $5,000,000 of outstanding principal and accrued interest in exchange for 1,000 shares of convertible preferred stock and warrants as further described in Note 9.

The loan bears interest at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the most recently effective one month LIBOR as in effect on each payment date plus 7% or (ii) 8% per annum, and additional paid in kind (“PIK”), or deferred, interest that accrues at 4% per annum.

The aggregate principal amount outstanding plus all accrued and unpaid interest is due in October 2019. The Company had the option of making principal payments (i) on or before October 16, 2016 (the “Second Anniversary”) but only for the full amount outstanding and (ii) after the Second Anniversary in minimum amount(s) of $5,000,000 plus multiples of $1,000,000.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the amounts of revenues and expenses. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the financial statements, we utilize available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming our estimates and judgments, giving appropriate consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to other companies in our industry. We believe that of our significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and estimation, or are fundamentally important to our business.

Revenue Recognition. We generally enter into contractual agreements with our customers for periods ranging between one to three years. We recognize the total revenue provided under a contract ratably over the contract period including any periods under which we have agreed to provide services at no cost. Deferred revenues are recognized as a liability when billings are issued in advance of the date when revenues are earned. We recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery or installation has been completed, (iii) the customer accepts and verifies receipt, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets with definite lives consist primarily of property and equipment, and intangible assets such as acquired customer relationships. Long-lived assets are evaluated periodically for impairment or whenever events or circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. Conditions that would result in an impairment charge include a significant decline in the fair value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. When such events or circumstances arise, an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows produced by the asset, or the appropriate grouping of assets, is compared to the asset’s carrying value to determine if impairment exists. If the asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured based on the excess of its carrying value over its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying value or net realizable value.

Recent Accounting Standards. See Note 3 of our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities known as ‘‘Special Purposes Entities.’’

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices. Our primary market risk relates to interest rates. At June 30, 2017, all cash and cash equivalents are immediately available cash balances. A portion of our cash and cash equivalents are held in institutional money market funds.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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 defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of June 30, 2017, in ensuring that material information that we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

During the second quarter, the Company had determined there was a material weakness in its system of internal control as it relates to monitoring compliance with covenants in its debt agreement. Management has commenced implementation of a remediation plan, which is ongoing and will be complete during the third quarter. The remediation plan includes the following steps:

●

A detail covenant worksheet will be compiled to include all financial and non-financial covenants. The covenant worksheet will include all covenants associated with current debt arrangements and will be modified to reflect any amendments to current debt and/or new debt arrangements.

●

The Company will ensure that the “Certificate of Financial Officer” certifying compliance with the covenants is provided to the lender concurrently with the delivery of the quarterly/annual financial statements.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no other changes in our system of internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
