PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We are a provider of intelligent wireless solutions including mobile hotspots, routers and modems as well as innovative hardware and software products that support machine-to-machine (M2M) applications and the Internet of Things (IoT). Our M2M and IoT solutions include embedded modules, modems and gateways built to deliver reliable always-on connectivity supporting a broad spectrum of applications. These products are designed to solve wireless connectivity challenges in a variety of vertical markets including video surveillance, digital signage, home security, oil and gas exploration, kiosks, fleet management, smart grid, vehicle diagnostics, telematics and many more.

We have a majority ownership position in Franklin Technology Inc. (“FTI”), a research and development company located in Seoul, South Korea. FTI primarily provides design and development services to us for our wireless products.

Our products are generally marketed and sold directly to wireless operators, and indirectly through strategic partners and distributors. Our global customer base extends primarily from the United States to countries in South America, the Caribbean, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and Asia.

OUR STRUCTURE

We incorporated in 1982 in California and reincorporated in Nevada on January 2, 2008. The reincorporation had no effect on the nature of our business or our management. Our headquarters office is located in San Diego, California. The office is principally composed of marketing, sales, operations, finance and administrative support. It is responsible for all customer-related activities, such as marketing communications, product planning, product management and customer support, along with sales and business development activities on a worldwide basis.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and a subsidiary with a majority voting interest of 51.8% (48.2% is owned by non-controlling interests) as of June 30, 2016 and 2015. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated and net earnings are reduced by the portion of the net earnings of subsidiaries applicable to non-controlling interests.

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments. We identify our operating segments based on how our chief operating decision maker internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility. We have one reportable segment, consisting of the sale of wireless access products. We generate revenues from four geographic areas, consisting of the United States, the Caribbean and South America, EMEA and Asia. The following enterprise-wide disclosure is prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area:

PRODUCTION AND MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the manufacturing of the majority of our products was contracted out to one company located in Asia.

EMPLOYEES

As of June 30, 2016, we had 67 employees. We also use the services of consultants and contract workers from time to time. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining organization, and we have never experienced a work stoppage.

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS.

The following risk factors do not purport to be a complete explanation of the risks involved in our business.

WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING DUE TO LIMITED RESOURCES. Our financial resources are limited, and the amount of funding that is required to develop and commercialize our products and technologies is highly uncertain. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or on terms satisfactory to us. Lack of funds may cause us to delay, reduce and/or abandon certain or all aspects of our development and commercialization programs. We may seek additional financing through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities. In such event, the percentage ownership of our stockholders would be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our Common Stock. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to fund our expansion, take advantage of desirable acquisition opportunities, develop or enhance services or products or respond to competitive pressures. Such inability could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial conditions.

WE MAY INFRINGE THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS. The industry in which we operate has many participants that own, or claim to own, proprietary intellectual property. In the past we have received, and in the future may receive, claims from third parties alleging that we, and possibly our customers, violate their intellectual property rights. Rights to intellectual property can be difficult to verify and litigation may be necessary to establish whether or not we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others. In many cases, these third parties are companies with substantially greater resources than us, and they may be able to, and may choose to, pursue complex litigation to a greater degree than we could. Regardless of whether these infringement claims have merit or not, we may be subject to the following:

We may be liable for potentially substantial damages, liabilities and litigation costs, including attorneys’ fees;

We may be prohibited from further use of the intellectual property and may be required to cease selling our products that are subject to the claim;

We may have to license the third party intellectual property, incurring royalty fees that may or may not be on commercially reasonable terms. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully negotiate and obtain such a license from the third party;

We may have to develop a non-infringing alternative, which could be costly and delay or result in the loss of sales. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to develop such a non-infringing alternative;

The diversion of management’s attention and resources;

Our relationships with customers may be adversely affected; and,

We may be required to indemnify our customers for certain costs and damages they incur in such a claim.

In the event of an unfavorable outcome in such a claim and our inability to either obtain a license from the third party or develop a non-infringing alternative, then our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected and we may have to restructure our business.

Absent a specific claim for infringement of intellectual property, from time to time we have and expect to continue to license technology, intellectual property and software from third parties. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain our third party licenses or obtain new licenses when required and this inability could materially adversely affect our business and operating results and the quality and functionality of our products. In addition, there is no assurance that third party licenses we execute will be on commercially reasonable terms.

Under purchase orders and contracts for the sale of our products we may provide indemnification to our customers for potential intellectual property infringement claims for which we may have no corresponding recourse against our third party licensors. This potential liability, if realized, could materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

WE OPERATE IN AN INTENSIVELY COMPETITIVE MARKET. The wireless broadband data access market is highly competitive, and we may be unable to compete effectively. Many of our competitors or potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. To survive and be competitive, we will need to continuously invest in research and development, sales and marketing, and customer support. Increased competition could result in price reductions, and smaller customer orders. Our failure to compete effectively could seriously impair our business.

WE OPERATE IN THE HIGH-RISK TELECOM SECTOR. We are in a volatile industry. In addition, our revenue model is evolving and relies substantially on the assumption that we will be able to successfully complete the development and sales of our products and services in the marketplace. Our prospects must be considered in the light of the risk, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of development and marketing. In order to be successful in the market we must, among other things:

Complete development and introduction of functional and attractive products and services;

Attract and maintain customer loyalty;

Establish and increase awareness of our brand and develop customer loyalty;

Provide desirable products and services to customers at attractive prices;

Establish and maintain strategic relationships with strategic partners and affiliates;

Rapidly respond to competitive and technological developments;

Build operations and customer service infrastructure to support our business; and

Attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel.

We cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve these goals, and our failure to achieve them could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We expect that revenues and operating results will fluctuate in the future. There is no assurance that any or all of our efforts will produce a successful outcome.

WE OPERATE IN A FIELD WITH RAPIDLY CHANGING TECHNOLOGY. We cannot be certain that our products and services will function as anticipated or be desirable to our intended markets. Our current or future products and services may fail to function properly, and if our products and services do not achieve and sustain market acceptance, our business, results of operations and profitability may suffer. If we are unable to predict and comply with evolving wireless standards, our ability to introduce and sell new products will be adversely affected. If we fail to develop and introduce products on time, we may lose customers and potential product orders.

WE DEPEND ON THE DEMAND FOR WIRELESS NETWORK CAPACITY. The demand for our products is completely dependent on the demand for broadband wireless access to networks. If wireless operators do not deliver acceptable wireless service, our product sales may dramatically decline. Thus, if wireless operators experience financial or network difficulties, it will likely reduce demand for our products.

WE DEPEND ON COLLABORATIVE ARRANGEMENTS. The development and commercialization of our products and services depend in large part upon our ability to selectively enter into and maintain collaborative arrangements with developers, distributors, service providers, network systems providers, core wireless communications technology providers and manufacturers, among others.

THE LOSS OF ANY OF OUR MATERIAL CUSTOMERS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY, AND THEREFORE SHAREHOLDER VALUE. We depend on a small number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues. For the year ended June 30, 2016, net revenues from our three largest customers represented 64%, 18% and 13% of our consolidated net sales, respectively. We have a written agreement with each of these customers that governs the sale of products to them, but the agreements do not obligate them to purchase any quantity of products from us. If these customers were to reduce their business with us, our revenues and profitability could materially decline.

OUR PRODUCT DELIVERIES ARE SUBJECT TO LONG LEAD TIMES. Due to our limited capital resources, we often experience long-lead times to ship products, often in excess of 45 days. This could cause us to lose customers, who may be able to secure faster delivery times from our competitors, and require us to maintain higher levels of working capital.

OUR PRODUCT-TO-MARKET CHALLENGE IS CRITICAL. Our success depends on our ability to quickly enter the market and establish an early mover advantage. We must implement an aggressive sales and marketing campaign to solicit customers and strategic partners. Any delay could seriously affect our ability to establish and exploit effectively an early-to-market strategy.

AS OUR BUSINESS EXPANDS INTERNATIONALLY, WE WILL BE EXPOSED TO ADDITIONAL RISKS RELATING TO INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS. Our expansion into international operations exposes us to additional risks unique to such international markets, including the following:

Increased credit management risks and greater difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;

Unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, wireless communications standards, exchange rates,
trading policies, tariffs and other barriers;

Uncertainties of laws and enforcement relating to the protection of intellectual property;

Language barriers; and

Potential adverse tax consequences.

Furthermore, if we are unable to further develop distribution channels in countries in North America, the Caribbean and South America, EMEA and Asia, we may not be able to grow our international operations, and our ability to increase our revenue will be negatively impacted.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION COULD RESULT IN INCREASED COSTS AND INABILITY TO SELL OUR PRODUCTS. Our products are subject to certain mandatory regulatory approvals in the United States and other regions in which we operate. In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission regulates many aspects of communications devices. Although we have obtained all the necessary Federal Communications Commission and other required approvals for the products we currently sell, we may not obtain approvals for future products on a timely basis, or at all. In addition, regulatory requirements may change or we may not be able to obtain regulatory approvals from countries other than the United States in which we may desire to sell products in the future.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We leased approximately 11,318 square feet of office space located in San Diego, California, at a monthly rent of $16,576; although the lease expired on August 31, 2015, we continued to occupy the premises with the consent of the landlord through October 27, 2015. On September 9, 2015, we signed a lease for new office space consisting of approximately 12,775 square feet, also located in San Diego, California, at a monthly rent of $23,115, which commenced on October 28, 2015. In addition to monthly rent, the new lease includes payment for certain common area costs. The term of the lease for the new office space is four years from the lease commencement date. Our facility is covered by an appropriate level of insurance and we believe it to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs. Rent expense related to these leases was $269,768 and $198,914 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Our Korea-based subsidiary, FTI, leases approximately 10,000 square feet of office space in Seoul, Korea, at a monthly rent of approximately $8,000, and the lease expires on September 1, 2017. Beginning on June 12, 2015, FTI leased additional office space consisting of approximately 2,682 square feet, also located in Seoul, Korea, at a monthly rent of approximately $2,700, and the lease expires on September 1, 2017. In addition to monthly rent, the lease provides for periodic cost of living increases in the base rent and payment for certain common area costs. These facilities are covered by an appropriate level of insurance and we believe them to be suitable for our use and adequate for our present needs. Rent expense related to these leases was approximately $128,000 and $98,400 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

We lease one corporate housing facility primarily for our employees who travel, under a non-cancelable operating lease that expired September 5, 2016 and was extended to September 5, 2017. Rent expense related to this lease was $9,724 and $10,573 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS, AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK

Shares of our Common Stock are quoted and traded on the OTCQB under the trading symbol "FKWL." The following table sets forth the range of high and low bid quotations per share for the Common Stock as reported during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. The bid price reflects inter-dealer prices and does not include retail mark-up, markdown, or commission.

	High		Low
Year Ended June 30, 2016
First Quarter	$	1.80	$	1.35
Second Quarter	$	2.20	$	1.55
Third Quarter	$	2.58	$	2.03
Fourth Quarter	$	2.55	$	2.23

Year Ended June 30, 2015
First Quarter	$	1.80	$	1.43
Second Quarter	$	1.72	$	1.40
Third Quarter	$	1.75	$	1.30
Fourth Quarter	$	1.86	$	1.45

We have one class of common stock. As of June 30, 2016, we had 743 shareholders of record. Since many of the shares of our common stock are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of shareholders, the total number of beneficial holders represented by these record holders is not practicably determinable.

DIVIDENDS

We have never declared or paid any dividends on our Common Stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds for use in the operation and development of our business and, therefore, and do not expect to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION

The following table summarizes share and exercise price information about our equity compensation plans as of June 30, 2016:

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to include this item.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. This report contains certain forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial performance. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in this report. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information which speaks only as of the date of this report. We are not obligated to publicly update this information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent we are required to do so in connection with our obligation to file reports with the SEC. For a discussion of the important risks to our business and future operating performance, see the discussion under the caption “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and under the caption “Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations” below. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this report might not occur.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We have a majority ownership position in FTI, a research and development company located in Seoul, South Korea. FTI primarily provides design and development services to us for our wireless products.

FACTORS THAT MAY INFLUENCE FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We believe that our revenue growth will be influenced largely by (1) the successful maintenance of our existing customers, (2) the rate of increase in demand for wireless data products, (3) customer acceptance for our new products, (4) new customer relationships and contracts, and (5) our ability to meet customers’ demands.

We have entered into and expect to continue to enter into new customer relationships and contracts for the supply of our products, and this may require significant demands on our resources, resulting in increased operating, selling, and marketing expenses associated with such new customers.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605, “Revenue Recognition,” when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. Accordingly, we recognize revenues from product sales upon shipment of the products to the customers or when the products are received by the customers in accordance with shipping or delivery terms. We provide a warranty for one year from the shipment or delivery date, which is covered by our vendors pursuant to purchase agreements. Any net warranty related expenditures made by us have not historically been material. Under our sales return policy, customers may generally return products that are under warranty for repair or replacement.

Capitalized Product Development Costs

ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” includes software that is part of a product or process to be sold to a customer and shall be accounted for under Subtopic 985-20. Our products contain embedded software internally developed by FTI which is an integral part of these products because it allows the various components of the products to communicate with each other and the products are clearly unable to function without this coding.

The costs of product development that are capitalized once technological feasibility is determined (noted as Technology in progress in the Intangible Assets table, in Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) include certifications, licenses, payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. We determine that technological feasibility for our products is reached after all high-risk development issues have been resolved. Once the products are available for general release to our customers, we cease capitalizing the product development costs and any additional costs, if any, are expensed. The capitalized product development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis using the greater of straight-line amortization or the ratio of the current gross revenues to the current and anticipated future gross revenues. The amortization begins when the products are available for general release to our customers.

As of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, capitalized product development costs in progress were $157,492 and $0, respectively, and these amounts are included in intangible assets in our consolidated balance sheets. During the year ended June 30, 2016, we incurred $686,291 in capitalized product development costs, and such amounts are primarily comprised of certifications and licenses. All costs incurred before technological feasibility is reached are expensed and included in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Income Taxes

Under the provision of ASC 740 “Application of the Uncertain Tax Position Provisions” related to accounting for uncertain tax positions, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements, uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. Tax benefits of an uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained based on technical merits.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Refer to NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015

NET SALES - Net sales increased by $13,460,461, or 29.0%, to $59,804,694 for the year ended June 30, 2016 from $46,344,233 for the corresponding period of 2015. For the year ended June 30, 2016, net sales by geographic regions, consisting of the United States, South America and the Caribbean, EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) and Asia were $51,741,991 (86.5% of net sales), $100,699 (0.2% of net sales), $7,906,900 (13.2% of net sales) and $55,104 (0.1% of net sales), respectively.

Net sales in the United States increased by $15,031,910, or 40.9%, to $51,741,991 for the year ended June 30, 2016, from $36,710,081 for the corresponding period of 2015. The increase in net sales was primarily due to increased demand for one of the Company's products, the launch of a new product with a carrier customer as well as the addition of a new customer. Net sales in the South American and Caribbean regions decreased by $1,315,353, or 92.9%, to $100,699 for the year ended June 30, 2016, from $1,416,052 for the corresponding period of 2015. The decrease was primarily due to the general nature of sales in these regions, which often fluctuate significantly from period to period due to timing of orders placed by a relatively small number of customers. Net sales in EMEA increased by $3,327,930, or 72.7%, to $7,906,900 for the year ended June 30, 2016, from $4,578,970 for the corresponding period of 2015. The increase in net sales was due to timing of orders placed by a carrier customer in Africa. Net sales in Asia decreased by $3,584,026, or 98.5%, to $55,104 for the year ended June 30, 2015, from $3,639,130 for the corresponding period of 2015. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower product and component sales generated by FTI, which typically vary from period to period.

GROSS PROFIT- Gross profit increased by $1,525,102, or 18.2%, to $9,925,180 for the year ended June 30, 2016, from $8,400,078 for the corresponding period of 2015. The gross profit in terms of net sales percentage was 16.6% for the year ended June 30, 2016, compared to 18.1% for the corresponding period of 2015. The increase in gross profit was primarily due to the change in net sales as described above. The decrease in gross profit in terms of net sales percentage was primarily due to variations in customer and product mix, competitive selling prices and product costs which generally vary from period to period and region to region.

OPERATING EXPENSES - Operating expenses decreased by $82,199, or 1.0%, to $7,806,221 for the year ended June 30, 2016, from $7,888,420 for the corresponding period of 2015. The decrease was primarily due to lower legal, amortization, depreciation and share-based compensation expenses, which were partially offset by higher shipping and handling costs resulting from the volume increase in product shipments as well as higher research and development and rent expense.

OTHER INCOME, NET - Other income, net decreased by $361,800, or 79.7%, to $92,168 for the year ended June 30, 2016, from $453,968 for the corresponding period of 2015. The decrease was primarily due to expenses that were reversed associated with certain marketing related expenses accrued in prior periods which expired during the 2015 fiscal year. During the 2016 fiscal year, no expenses were reversed or expired.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our historical operating results, capital resources and financial position, in combination with current projections and estimates, were considered in management's plan and intentions to fund our operations over a reasonable period of time, which we define as the twelve month period ending June 30, 2017. For purposes of liquidity disclosures, we assess the likelihood that we have sufficient available working capital and other principal sources of liquidity to fund our operating activities and obligations as they become due.

Our principal source of liquidity as of June 30, 2016 consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $13,156,754. We believe we have sufficient available capital to cover our existing operations and obligations through at least June 30, 2017. Our long-term future cash requirements will depend on numerous factors, including our revenue base, profit margins, product development activities, market acceptance of our products, future expansion plans and ability to control costs. If we are unable to achieve our current business plan or secure additional funding that may be required, we would need to curtail our operations or take other similar actions outside the ordinary course of business in order to continue to operate as a going concern.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES – Net cash provided by operating activities for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $2,707,586 and $4,185,322, respectively.

The $2,707,586 in net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2016 was primarily due to the increase in accounts payable of $5,924,272, the decrease in prepaid income taxes of $1,024,922 as well as our operating results (net income adjusted for depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges), which were partially offset by the increase in accounts receivable of $6,775,723 and the decrease in advance payments from customers of $691,416.

The $4,185,322 in net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to the increase in accounts payable of $1,867,779 as well as our operating results (net income adjusted for depreciation, amortization, and other non-cash charges).

INVESTING ACTIVITIES – Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $1,047,603 and $181,675, respectively.

The $1,047,603 in net cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2016 was primarily due to the payments for capitalized product development of $686,291 and purchases of intangible assets and property and equipment of $196,112 and $173,200, respectively.

The $181,675 in net cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to the payments for capitalized product development of $89,145 and purchases of intangible assets and property and equipment of $51,012 and $53,032, respectively.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES – Net cash used in financing activities for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $342,444 and $0, respectively.

The $342,444 in net cash used in financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2016 was primarily due to the repurchase of 130,000 shares of our Common Stock from a shareholder and the repayment of short-term borrowings of $148,295, which were partially offset by the cash received from the exercise of stock options of $39,851.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations and commitments as of June 30, 2016, and the effect such obligations could have on our liquidity and cash flow in future periods:

	Payments Due by June 30,
	2017		2018		2019		2020		Thereafter		Total
Leases	$	416,141	$	301,368	$	277,377	$	92,459	$	–	$	1,087,345

On July 27, 2010, we entered into a Common Stock Repurchase Agreement with C-Motech (the “Agreement”), under which we agreed to repurchase 3,370,356 shares of our Common Stock from C-Motech for $3,500,000. A total of 1,803,684 shares were repurchased on the date of the Agreement in exchange for non-cash consideration in the amount of $1,873,065, which represented amounts owed to the Company by C-Motech for certain marketing funds as well as the settlement of a price dispute for products previously purchased by the Company from C-Motech. Under the Agreement, the remaining 1,566,672 shares were to be repurchased by us upon payment of the balance, $1,626,935, on or before December 31, 2010.

On January 28, 2011 (the “Amendment Date”) the Agreement was amended to reflect (1) a change in the date the 1,566,672 shares are to be repurchased from C-Motech from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011, and (2) a change to the non-cash consideration of $1,873,065. In exchange for the 1,803,684 shares, we were to pay cash to C-Motech (in the same amount) for the shares, by March 31, 2011. In addition, in a separate agreement dated January 28, 2011, C-Motech agreed to pay us $1,873,065, for amounts owed, by March 31, 2011. The purpose of these revisions was to more clearly differentiate each party’s payment obligations to the other with respect to this transaction. Following the Amendment Date, we paid C-Motech $1,873,065 in exchange for the 1,803,684 shares previously transferred to us by C-Motech, and C-Motech paid us $1,873,065 for amounts owed, of which $1,581,457 was booked to other income and $291,608 was booked to cost of goods sold. The repurchase of the remaining 1,566,672 shares from C-Motech was not completed. We have provided formal notification to C-Motech that it is in breach of its obligations and we have also provided a demand to sell the shares back to us. We have attempted to tender payment for the shares without results. We were previously advised that two individuals, Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun, claim to have purchased the shares from C-Motech through its former CEO; however, the authority of the former CEO to agree to the sale of the shares was disputed by C-Motech. The ownership of the shares was the subject of litigation involving Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun and C-Motech in U.S. and Korean courts. On April 1, 2015 the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Department, Chancery Division issued an Order with respect to the matter of Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun, plaintiffs, v. Integrity Stock Transfer and Registrar, Mountain Share Transfer, Inc. and C-Motech Company Ltd., defendants. The Order recognizes and enforces the plaintiff's Motion to Recognize and Enforce Foreign Judgment in which the plaintiffs previously prevailed over C-Motech with respect to the ownership of the 1,566,672 shares of Franklin Wireless Common Stock in an action that took place in Korea.

On May 7, 2013, we filed a lawsuit against C-Motech in the Superior Court of California for the County of San Diego for breach of the Agreement and breach of other contracts between the parties relating to indemnification and other obligations. On February 25, 2014, C-Motech answered the complaint and on February 26, 2014, C-Motech filed a Notice of Removal from the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. On June 19, 2014, C-Motech filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and on June 27, 2014, C-Motech filed a Motion for Recognition of a Foreign Main Proceeding under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and Further Relief. On July 10, 2014, this motion was heard in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of California during which the Court ordered that C-Motech's bankruptcy proceeding in South Korea was recognized as a foreign main proceeding and that our lawsuit against C-Motech in the U.S. District Court is stayed. The effect of this ruling is that we must participate in C-Motech's bankruptcy proceeding in South Korea if we wish to pursue our various claims against C-Motech.

On September 9, 2015, registered ownership of the shares was transferred from C-Motech to Cheng-Ji Zhu (838,350 shares) and Ok-Nam Yun (728,322 shares). Subsequently, on December 30, 2015, the Company repurchased 130,000 of the shares from Ok-Nam Yun for cash of $234,000.

LEASES

Refer to ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

FUTURE LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

For the next twelve months, we may require in excess of $5.0 million for capital expenditures, software licenses and for testing and certifying new products.

We believe we will be able to fund our future cash requirements for operations from our cash available, operating cash flows, bank lines of credit and issuance of equity securities. We believe these sources of funds will be sufficient to continue our operations and planned capital expenditures. However, we will be required to raise additional debt or equity capital if we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to fund the expansion of our sales and to satisfy the related working capital requirements for the next twelve months. Our ability to satisfy such obligations also depends upon our future performance, which in turn is subject to general economic conditions and regional risks, and to financial, business and other factors affecting our operations, including factors beyond our control. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors” included in this report.

If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our obligations and commitments, we will be required to raise additional debt or equity capital. Additionally, we may be required to sell material assets or operations or delay or forego expansion opportunities. We might not be able to effect these alternative strategies on satisfactory terms, if at all.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)), that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act or in other factors that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

To evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management conducted an assessment, using the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, (specifically the 2013 framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, management concluded that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2016.

This annual report does not include an attestation report from our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules adopted under Section 404(c) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS

On September 21, 2009 we entered into Change of Control Agreements with OC Kim, our President, Yun J. (David) Lee, our Chief Operating Officer, and Yong Bae Won, our Vice President, Engineering. Each Change of Control Agreement provides for a lump sum payment to the officer in case of a change of control of the Company. The term includes the acquisition of Common Stock of the Company resulting in one person or company owning more than 50% of the outstanding shares, a significant change in the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company during any 12-month period, a reorganization, merger, consolidation or similar transaction resulting in the transfer of ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the Company's outstanding Common Stock, or a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or sale of substantially all of the Company's assets.

The Change of Control Agreement with Mr. Kim calls for a payment of $5 million upon a change of control; the agreement with Mr. Lee calls for a payment of $2 million upon a change of control; and the agreement with Mr. Won was for two years and called for a payment of $1 million upon a change of control.

The Board of Directors has approved extension of the Change of Control Agreements with Mr. Kim and Mr. Lee through September 21, 2017. The Change of Control Agreement with Mr. Won expired on September 21, 2014 and was not renewed or extended.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

GENERAL PHILOSOPHY- We compensate our executive officers through a mix of base salary, incentive compensation and stock options. Our compensation policies are designed to be competitive with comparable employers and to align management’s incentives with both near-term and long-term interests of our stockholders. We use informal methods of benchmarking our executive compensation, based on the experience of our directors or, in some cases, studies of industry standards. Our compensation is negotiated on a case by case basis, with attention being given to the amount of compensation necessary to make a competitive offer and the relative compensation among our executive officers.

BASE SALARIES - We want to provide our senior management with a level of cash compensation in the form of base salary that facilitates an appropriate lifestyle given their professional status and accomplishments.

INCENTIVE COMPENSATION - Our practice is to award cash bonuses based upon performance objectives set by the Board of Directors. We maintain a bonus plan which provides our executive officers the ability to earn cash bonuses based on the achievement of performance targets. The performance targets are set by the Board of Directors, and our executive officers are eligible to receive bonuses on a quarterly basis. The actual amount of incentive compensation paid to our executive officers is in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

SEVERANCE BENEFITS - We are generally an at will employer, and have no employment agreements with severance benefits; however, we have entered into Change of Control Agreements with our executive officers, and one other employee that provide them with lump sum payments in the event of a change in control of the Company.

RETIREMENT PLANS - We do not maintain any retirement plans.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of September 28, 2016 by each director and executive officer of the Company, each person known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Common Stock, and all directors and executive officers of the Company as a group. Except as otherwise indicated below, each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares owned, subject to applicable community property laws.

Shares Beneficially Owned

OC Kim 9707 Waples Street, Suite 150, San Diego, CA 92121		1,596,695			15.3%

Joon Won Jyoung 9707 Waples Street, Suite 150, San Diego, CA 92121		1,340,662			12.8%

Gary Nelson 9707 Waples Street, Suite 150, San Diego, CA 92121		391,825			3.8%

All directors and executive officers as a group		3,369,182			32.3%


(1)	Based solely on a Schedule 13G dated February 12, 2016, which indicates that Mr. Packer may be deemed to beneficially own 821,326 shares. With respect to these shares, Mr. Packer has shared voting power and shared dispositive power with Globis Capital Partners, L.P., Globis Capital Advisors, L.L.C., Globis Overseas Fund, Ltd., Globis Capital Management, L.P. and Globis Capital, L.L.C.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.

On January 28, 2011 (the “Amendment Date”) the Agreement was amended to reflect (1) a change in the date the 1,566,672 shares are to be repurchased from C-Motech from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011, and (2) a change to the non-cash consideration of $1,873,065. In exchange for the 1,803,684 shares, we were to pay cash to C-Motech (in the same amount) for the shares, by March 31, 2011. In addition, in a separate agreement dated January 28, 2011, C-Motech agreed to pay us $1,873,065, for amounts owed, by March 31, 2011. The purpose of these revisions was to more clearly differentiate each party’s payment obligations to the other with respect to this transaction. Following the Amendment Date, we paid C-Motech $1,873,065 in exchange for the 1,803,684 shares previously transferred to us by C-Motech, and C-Motech paid us $1,873,065 for amounts owed, of which $1,581,457 was booked to other income and $291,608 was booked to cost of goods sold. The repurchase of the remaining 1,566,672 shares from C-Motech was not completed. We have provided formal notification to C-Motech that it is in breach of its obligations and we have also provided a demand to sell the shares back to us. We have attempted to tender payment for the shares without results. We were previously advised that two individuals, Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun, claim to have purchased the shares from C-Motech through its former CEO; however, the authority of the former CEO to agree to the sale of the shares was disputed by C-Motech. The ownership of the shares was the subject of litigation involving Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun and C-Motech in U.S. and Korean courts. On April 1, 2015 the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois County Department, Chancery Division issued an Order with respect to the matter of Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun, plaintiffs, v. Integrity Stock Transfer and Registrar, Mountain Share Transfer, Inc. and C-Motech Company Ltd., defendants. The order recognizes and enforces the plaintiff's Motion to Recognize and Enforce Foreign Judgment in which the plaintiffs previously prevailed over C-Motech with respect to the ownership of the 1,566,672 shares of Franklin Wireless Common Stock in an action that took place in Korea.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Franklin Wireless Corp.

San Diego, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Franklin Wireless Corp. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Franklin Wireless Corp. as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and a subsidiary with a majority voting interest of 51.8% (48.2% is owned by non-controlling interests) as of June 30, 2016 and 2015. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements of the Company, intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated and net earnings are reduced by the portion of the net earnings of the subsidiary applicable to non-controlling interests.

As consolidated financial statements are based on the assumption that they represent the financial position and operating results of a single economic entity, the retained earnings or deficit of the subsidiary at the date of acquisition, October 1, 2009, by the parent are excluded from consolidated retained earnings. When a subsidiary is consolidated, the consolidated financial statements include the subsidiary’s revenues, expenses, gains, and losses only from the date the subsidiary is initially consolidated, and the non-controlling interest is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the parent’s equity. There are no shares of the Company held by any subsidiaries as of June 30, 2016 or June 30, 2015.

Non-controlling Interest in a Consolidated Subsidiary

As of June 30, 2016, the non-controlling interest was $1,103,921, which represents a $565,223 increase from $538,698 as of June 30, 2015. The increase of $565,223 in the non-controlling interest was due to the non-controlling interests in net income of subsidiary for the year ended June 30, 2016.

Segment Reporting

F-7

We generate revenues from four geographic areas, consisting of the United States, the Caribbean and South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and Asia. The following enterprise-wide disclosure is prepared on a basis consistent with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The following table contains certain financial information by geographic area:

	Fiscal Year Ended June 30,
Net sales:	2016		2015
United States	$	51,741,991	$	36,710,081
Caribbean and South America		100,699		1,416,052
Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”)		7,906,900		4,578,970
Asia		55,104		3,639,130
Totals	$	59,804,694	$	46,344,233

Long-lived assets, net (property and equipment and intangible assets):	June 30, 2016		June 30, 2015
United States	$	1,113,745	$	785,144
Asia		330,905		571,629
Totals	$	1,444,650	$	1,356,773

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as assets, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. We invest our excess cash into financial instruments which are readily convertible into cash, such as money market funds and certificates of deposit (see Note 3).

Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated 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 and 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. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Based upon our review of our collection history as well as the current balances associated with all significant customers and associated invoices, we do not believe an allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary as of June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition,” when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. Accordingly, we recognize revenues from product sales upon shipment of the products to customers or when the products are received by the customers in accordance with the shipping or delivery terms. We provide a warranty for one year from the shipment or delivery date, which is covered by our vendors pursuant to purchase agreements. Any net warranty related expenditures made by us have not historically been material. Under our sales return policy, customers may generally return products that are under warranty for repair or replacement.

Cost of Goods Sold

All costs associated with our contract manufacturers, as well as distribution, fulfillment and repair services are included in our cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold also includes amortization expense associated with capitalized product development costs associated with complete technology.

Capitalized Product Development Costs

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” includes software that is part of a product or process to be sold to a customer and shall be accounted for under Subtopic 985-20. Our products contain embedded software internally developed by FTI, which is an integral part of these products because it allows the various components of the products to communicate with each other and the products are clearly unable to function without this coding.

F-8

The costs of product development that are capitalized once technological feasibility is determined (noted as Technology in progress in the Intangible Assets table in Note 2 to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) include related licenses, certification costs, payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. We determine that technological feasibility for our products is reached after all high-risk development issues have been resolved. Once the products are available for general release to our customers, we cease capitalizing the product development costs and any additional costs, if any, are expensed. The capitalized product development costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis using the greater of straight-line amortization or the ratio of the current gross revenues to the current and anticipated future gross revenues. The amortization begins when the products are available for general release to our customers.

Research and Development Costs

Costs associated with research and development are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were $2,990,496 and $2,915,143 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Advertising and Promotion Costs

Costs associated with advertising and promotions are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion costs were $22,726 and $23,362 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Warranties

We provide a warranty for one year which is covered by our vendors and manufacturers under purchase agreements between the Company and the vendors. As a result, we believe we do not have any net warranty exposure and do not accrue any warranty expenses. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material net warranty expenditures.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Costs associated with product shipping and handling are expensed as incurred. Shipping and handling costs, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the statement of comprehensive income, were $1,408,607 and $1,162,427 for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, we consider all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

Our inventories consist of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. We assess the inventory carrying value and reduce it, if necessary, to its net realizable value based on customer orders on hand, and internal demand forecasts using management’s best estimates given information currently available. Our customer demand is highly unpredictable, and can fluctuate significantly caused by factors beyond our control. We may write down our inventory value for potential obsolescence and excess inventory. As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, we have recorded inventory reserves in the amount of $90,917 and $120,867, respectively, for inventories that we have identified as obsolete or slow-moving.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Significant additions or improvements extending useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Machinery		6 years
Office equipment		5 years
Molds		3 years
Vehicles		5 years
Computers and software		5 years
Furniture and fixtures		7 years
Facilities		5 years or life of the lease, whichever is shorter

F-9

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and certain intangible assets were recorded in connection with the FTI acquisition in October 2009, and are accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and intangible net assets acquired. Intangible assets are recorded at their fair value at the date of acquisition. Goodwill and other intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and any related impairment losses are recognized in earnings when identified. No impairment was recognized during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Intangible Assets

The definite lived intangible assets consisted of the following as of June 30, 2016:

Definite lived intangible assets:	Expected Life	Average Remaining life	Gross Intangible Assets		Accumulated Amortization		Net Intangible Assets

F-10

Amortization expense recognized during the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $797,797 and $1,223,692, respectively. The amortization expenses of the definite lived intangible assets for the next five years and thereafter are as follows:

		FY2017				FY2018				FY2019				FY2020				FY2021				Thereafter
Total		$	563,403			$	447,723			$	64,469			$	18,963			$	5,839			$	26,490

Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” we review for impairment of long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. We consider the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable based upon our review of the following events or changes in circumstances: the asset’s ability to continue to generate income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods; loss of legal ownership or title to the assets; significant changes in our strategic business objectives and utilization of the asset; or significant negative industry or economic trends. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset are less than its carrying amount.

We are not aware of any events or changes in circumstances during the year ended June 30, 2016 that would indicate that the long-lived assets are impaired.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company’s employee share-based awards result in a cost that is measured at fair value on an award’s grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. Stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the award’s vesting period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Transactions with non-employees in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur. Stock-based compensation costs are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income based upon the underlying recipients' roles within the Company.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets, unless it is more likely than not such assets will be realized. Current income taxes are based on the year’s taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes and the annual change in deferred taxes.

The Company assesses its income tax positions and records tax benefits based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date. For those tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company records the largest amount of tax benefit with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit is recognized in the financial statements. The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with such uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

Earnings per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares that were outstanding for the period, without consideration for potential common shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income by the sum of the weighted-average number of dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method or the as-converted method. Potentially dilutive shares are comprised of common stock options outstanding under our stock plan.

F-11

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We extend credit to our customers and perform ongoing credit evaluations of such customers. We evaluate our accounts receivable on a regular basis for collectability and provide for an allowance for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. No reserve was required or recorded for any of the periods presented.

Substantially all of our revenues are derived from sales of wireless data products. Any significant decline in market acceptance of our products or in the financial condition of our existing customers could impair our ability to operate effectively.

A significant portion of our revenue is derived from a small number of customers. For the year ended June 30, 2016, net sales to our three largest customers represented 64%, 18% and 13% of our consolidated net sales, respectively, and 58%, 34% and 0% of our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2016. For the year ended June 30, 2015, net sales to our two largest customers represented 68% and 10% of our consolidated net sales, respectively, and 87%, and 7% of our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2015. No other customers accounted for more than ten percent of total net sales for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

For the year ended June 30, 2016, sales to Verizon, Sprint and Smile Communications each comprised more the 10% of our net sales. For the year ended June 30, 2015, sales to Verizon comprised more than 10% of our net sales.

For the year ended June 30, 2016, we purchased the majority of our wireless data products from one manufacturing company located in Asia. If this manufacturing company were to experience delays, capacity constraints or quality control problems, product shipments to our customers could be delayed, or our customers could consequently elect to cancel the underlying product purchase order, which would negatively impact our revenue. For the year ended June 30, 2016, we purchased wireless data products from this supplier in the amount of $49,057,120, or 99% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $12,840,858 as of June 30, 2016. For the year ended June 30, 2015, we purchased wireless data products from this supplier in the amount of $30,466,215, or 81% of total purchases, and had related accounts payable of $6,749,486 as of June 30, 2015.

We maintain our cash accounts with established commercial banks. Such cash deposits exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit of $250,000 for each financial institution. However, we do not anticipate any losses on excess deposits.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This amendment addresses revenue from contracts with customers, which clarifies existing accounting literature relating to how and when a company recognizes revenue. Under the update, a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. ASU 2015-14 delayed the effective date of this update to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and the amendment is to be applied retrospectively or the cumulative effect as of the date of adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2014-09 will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This ASU introduces an explicit requirement for management to assess if there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. In connection with each annual and interim period, management must assess if there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the issuance date. Disclosures are required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for all entities in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Management does not believe the potential effects of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements will be material.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest: Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The update requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of being presented as an asset. Debt disclosures will include the face amount of the debt liability and the effective interest rate. The update requires retrospective application and represents a change in accounting principle. ASU 2015-15 was issued subsequently to permit costs associated with a line of credit arrangement to be presented as assets and amortized ratably over the term of the arrangement. These updates were effective for the Company on July 1, 2016. Management does not believe that these updates will materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

F-12

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory—Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU 2015-11 requires inventory to be subsequently measured using the lower of cost and net realizable value, thereby eliminating the market value approach. Net realizable value is defined as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation.” ASU 2015-11 is effective for the Company beginning on July 1, 2017 and is applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosure.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which modified lease accounting for both lessees and lessors to increase transparency and comparability by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous accounting standards and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new lease standard on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value accounting is applied for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the financial statements are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity, associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets or liabilities are as follows:

•	Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.
•	Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
•	Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to the short period of time to maturity or repayment. The carrying value of the Company’s short-term borrowings approximate fair value as of June 30, 2015, as the related interest rate approximates market rates currently available to the Company.

NOTE 4 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consisted of the following as of:

	June 30, 2016			June 30, 2015
Machinery and facility	$	303,520		$	300,650
Office equipment		365,430			373,554
Molds		938,680			775,499

Total	$	317,764		$	314,492

Depreciation expense associated with property and equipment was $169,928 and $237,005 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

NOTE 5 - ACCRUED LIABILITIES

Accrued liabilities consisted of the following as of:

	June 30, 2016		June 30, 2015
Accrued salaries, severance	$	129,119	$	140,820

NOTE 6 - SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

Short-term borrowings consisted of the following as of:

	June 30, 2016		June 30, 2015
Loan dated June 2011, due to a financial institution, with monthly interest payments (interest rate of 8.90% per annum), and the principal balance due March 2016 (interest rate of 5.025% per annum as extended). The loan was paid off in full during the year ended June 30, 2016.	$	–	$	148,295
Total	$	–	$	148,295

The short-term borrowings of $148,295 as of June 30, 2015 resulted from the consolidation of FTI’s debt.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

Income tax provision (benefit) for the years ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 consists of the following:

	Year Ended June 30,
	2016			2015
Current income tax expense (benefit):
Federal	$	19,343		$	(40,659	)
State		(32,715	)		800
		(13,372	)		(39,859	)
Deferred income tax expense (benefit):
Federal		350,958			(237,769	)
State		–			–
Foreign		(302,653	)		189,356
		48,305			(48,413	)
Provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	34,933		$	(88,272	)

The provision (benefit) for income taxes reconciles to the amount computed by applying effective federal statutory income tax rate to income (loss) before provision for income taxes as follows:

	Year Ended June 30,
	2016			2015
Federal tax provision, at statutory rate of 34%	$	751,773		$	170,323
State tax, net of federal tax benefit		800			528
Nondeductible expenses		(16,619	)		48,245
R&D credits		(43,664	)		(140,829	)
Uncertain tax position		–			1,360
Foreign rate difference		(33,828	)		(82,162	)
Other		(72,803	)		(85,737	)
Change in valuation allowance		(550,726	)		–
Provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	34,933		$	(88,272	)

Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets are as follows:

F-14

	June 30, 2016			June 30, 2015
Deferred tax asset:
Net operating losses	$	1,716,980		$	1,773,959
State tax		272			(272	)
Intangibles		19,993			151,643
Tax credits		425,011			56,934
Other, net		111,732			142,191
Total deferred tax assets		2,273,988			2,124,455
Deferred tax liabilities:
Fixed asset		(16,600	)		–
Intangibles		(38,535	)		–
Total deferred tax liabilities		(55,135	)		–
Less valuation allowance		(200,117	)		(57,206	)
Net deferred tax asset	$	2,018,736		$	2,067,249

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of the assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. We have evaluated the available evidence supporting the realization of our gross deferred tax assets, including the amount and timing of forecasted future taxable income. Management determined it is more likely than not that the federal deferred tax assets will be fully realized and no valuation allowance is necessary as of June 30, 2016. Management also determined that certain state deferred tax assets required a partial valuation allowance as of June 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2016, we have federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4.2 million and $1.7 million, which expire through 2034 and 2017, respectively. The utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitations under provision of the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state provisions.

We adopted the provision of ASC 740 related to accounting for uncertain tax positions effective July 1, 2007, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements, uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Under this provision, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. Tax benefits of an uncertain tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained based on technical merits.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of unrecognized tax benefits, which have been considered in the Company’s computation of its deferred tax assets, is as follows:

Balance as of June 30, 2014	$	60,135
Gross increase or (decrease)		74,684
Reversal of reserve on unrecognized tax benefits		(4,355	)
Balance as of June 30, 2015		130,464
Gross increase or (decrease)		38,059
Balance as of June 30, 2016	$	168,523

We do not anticipate any material change in the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to occur within the next twelve months. ASC 740 requires us to accrue interest and penalties where there is an underpayment of taxes based on our best estimate of the amount ultimately to be paid. Our policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense. We have not recorded any interest or penalties as the liability associated with the unrecognized tax benefits is immaterial. We are subject to taxation in the U.S., various state and foreign jurisdictions.

The Internal Revenue Service and Franchise Tax Board have completed their examinations of our 2007 and 2008 taxable years with a favorable final resolution of the Company’s claim for research and development tax credits. As of June 30, 2016, the R&D tax credits that we have claimed have been received in full. In addition, the Franchise Tax Board completed their examination of our taxable years from 2008 to 2011 with a favorable resolution of the Company’s claim for tax refunds in regards to the California apportionment of our income. As of June 30, 2016, the tax refunds that we have claimed have been received in full from the Franchise Tax Board.

Leases

We have agreements to lease office space that expire in fiscal 2018 and 2020. On September 10, 2015, we signed a lease for an office space consisting of approximately 12,775 square feet, located in San Diego, California, at a monthly rent of $23,115, which commenced on October 28, 2015.

Contingency

F-16

On January 28, 2011 (the “Amendment Date”) the Agreement was amended to reflect (1) a change in the date the 1,566,672 shares are to be repurchased from C-Motech from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011, and (2) a change to the non-cash consideration of $1,873,065. In exchange for the 1,803,684 shares, we were to pay cash to C-Motech (in the same amount) for the shares, by March 31, 2011. In addition, in a separate agreement dated January 28, 2011, C-Motech agreed to pay us $1,873,065, for amounts owed, by March 31, 2011. The purpose of these revisions was to more clearly differentiate each party’s payment obligations to the other with respect to this transaction. Following the Amendment Date, we paid C-Motech $1,873,065 in exchange for the 1,803,684 shares previously transferred to us by C-Motech, and C-Motech paid us $1,873,065 for amounts owed, of which $1,581,457 was booked to other income and $291,608 was booked to cost of goods sold. The repurchase of the remaining 1,566,672 shares has not been completed. We have provided formal notification to C-Motech that it is in breach of its obligations and we have also provided a demand to sell the shares back to us. We have attempted to tender payment for the shares without results, and we are unable to determine whether or not this repurchase will take place. We were previously advised that two individuals, Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun, claim to have purchased the shares from C-Motech through its former CEO; however, the authority of the former CEO to agree to the sale of the shares was disputed by C-Motech. The ownership of the shares was the subject of litigation involving Cheng-Ji Zhu and Ok-Nam Yun ("Plaintiffs") and C-Motech in U.S. and Korean courts in which the Plaintiffs prevailed over C-Motech. On May 7, 2013, we filed a lawsuit against C-Motech in the Superior Court of California for the County of San Diego for breach of the Agreement and breach of other contracts between the parties relating to indemnification and other obligations. On February 25, 2014, C-Motech answered the complaint and on February 26, 2014, C-Motech filed a Notice of Removal from the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of San Diego to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. On June 19, 2014, C-Motech filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and on June 27, 2014, C-Motech filed a Motion for Recognition of a Foreign Main Proceeding under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and Further Relief. On July 10, 2014, this motion was heard in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of California during which the Court ordered that C-Motech's bankruptcy proceeding in South Korea was recognized as a foreign main proceeding and that our lawsuit against C-Motech in the U.S. District Court is stayed. The effect of this ruling is that we must participate in C-Motech's bankruptcy proceeding in South Korea if we wish to pursue our various claims against C-Motech.

Litigation

We are from time to time involved in certain legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business.

Novatel Wireless, Inc.

On December 10, 2010, Novatel Wireless, Inc. and Novatel Wireless Solutions, Inc. ("Novatel") filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, against us and one other defendant. The complaint alleges that certain products, including, but not limited to, mobile data hot spots and data modems, infringe on U.S. Patent Nos. 5,129,098; 7,318,225; 7,574,737 and 7,319,715. On April 13, 2012, the plaintiff filed a Second Amended Complaint which amended certain claims and added U.S. Patent No. 7,944,901 to the original complaint. On April 27, 2012, we filed a Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint as to certain of the claims. On July 6, 2012, the Court held oral argument on the Motion to Dismiss and on July 19, 2012, the Court issued an order granting in part and denying in part the Motion to Dismiss. On August 2, 2012, we answered the complaint and an Early Neutral Evaluation Conference took place on October 31, 2012 and a follow-up Settlement Conference was held on June 12, 2013. A claim construction hearing took place on October 9, 2014. On November 25, 2014, the Court granted plaintiff's Joint Motion to Joinder of Required Party, which added Nova Intellectual Solutions, LLC ("NIS") as a plaintiff to this litigation. Novatel had previously assigned the patents-in-suit to Strategic Intellectual Solutions, LLC, which is the parent company of NIS.

On April 24, 2015, NIS filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, against us and FTI. The complaint alleges that one of the Company's products infringes on U.S. Patent No. 7,944,901.

On July 20, 2015, a Settlement Conference took place during which we and NIS agreed to settle this matter and an agreement governing the settlement was executed on October 20, 2015.

On October 1, 2015, we and Novatel filed a Joint Motion For Dismissal With Prejudice as to the patent infringement claims made by Novatel against us. On October 28, 2015, we and NIS filed a Joint Motion For Dismissal With Prejudice as to the patent infringement claims made by it against the Company and FTI.

Adaptix, Inc.

In October 2015 we were notified that on June 12, 2015, Adaptix, Inc. filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Tyler Division against one of our customers. The complaint alleges that certain wireless devices, including one device provided by the Company, infringe on U.S. Patent No. 8,934,375. On July 12, 2016, the case was dismissed following settlement by the parties to the litigation.

TC Technology LLC

In June 2016 we were notified that on March 10, 2016, TC Technology LLC filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against one of our customers. The complaint alleges that certain voice, data and text services infringe U.S. Patent No. 5,815,488. The complaint does not name any products provided by the Company. As of June 30, 2016, this legal proceeding is pending, but we do not believe that this action will have a material effect on the Company.

Change of Control Agreements

The Board of Directors has approved extension of the Change of Control Agreements with Mr. Kim and Mr. Lee, through September 21, 2017. The Change of Control Agreement with Mr. Won expired on September 21, 2014 and was not renewed or extended.

NOTE 10 - LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS

We apply the provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” using a modified prospective application, and the Black-Scholes model. Under this application, we are required to record compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. Compensation costs will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award.

We adopted the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (“2009 Plan”) on June 11, 2009, which provided for the grant of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to our employees and directors. Options granted under the 2009 Plan generally have a term of ten years and generally vest and become exercisable at the rate of 33% after one year and 33% on the second and third anniversaries of the option grant dates. Historically, some stock option grants have included shorter vesting periods ranging from one to two years.

The estimated forfeiture rate considers historical turnover rates stratified into employee pools in comparison with an overall employee turnover rate, as well as expectations about the future. We periodically revise the estimated forfeiture rate in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Compensation expense recorded under this method for the year ended June 30, 2016 was ($50,000). The expense credits for the year ended June 30, 2016 resulted from the reversal of expenses booked in prior periods for stock options for a small number of employees that were cancelled. This amount increased income from operations and income before provision for income taxes by the same amount by decreasing compensation expense recognized in selling, general and administrative expense.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the preceding table represents the total pretax intrinsic value, based upon the Company’s closing stock price of $2.32 as of June 30, 2016, which would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2016 in the amount of 812,003 shares was $1.14 per share.

As of June 30, 2016, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted.
