(unaudited)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information which includes condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report, Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013.

It is management's opinion that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

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, 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 differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used to review the Company’s goodwill, impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition on percentage of completion type contracts, allowances for uncollectible accounts, inventory valuation, valuation of non-cash capital stock issuances and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements for 2014 include the accounts of CUI Global, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries CUI, Inc., CUI Japan, CUI Properties, LLC and Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd., hereafter referred to as the “Company”. The condensed consolidated financial statements for 2013 include the accounts of CUI Global, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries CUI, Inc., CUI Japan, CUI Properties, LLC, and Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd. (included since April 1, 2013). Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:

Level 1 – Pricing inputs are quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are quoted for similar assets, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 includes assets or liabilities valued at quoted prices adjusted for legal or contractual restrictions specific to these investments.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the assets or liabilities; that is, the inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Management believes the carrying amounts of the short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, costs in excess of billings, prepaid expense and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, billings in excess of costs, unearned revenue, and other liabilities reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments. Mortgage debt and related notes payable approximate fair value based on current market conditions. The Company measures its derivative liability on a recurring basis using significant observable inputs (Level 2). The Company’s derivative liability is valued using a LIBOR swap curve.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash includes deposits at financial institutions with maturities of three months or less. The Company at times has cash in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits and places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company considers all highly liquid marketable securities with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include money market funds, certificates of deposit and commercial paper. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $2,889,954 of cash and cash equivalents balances at domestic financial institutions which were covered under the FDIC insured deposits programs and $144,738 foreign financial institutions covered under the United Kingdom Financial Services Compensation (FSC). At June 30, 2014 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $243,854 in Japanese bank accounts and $6,000,498 in European bank accounts.

Investments

The Company considers all investments with original maturities over 90 days that mature in less than one year from the balance sheet date to be short-term investments. Both short- and long-term investments primarily include money market funds, certificates of deposit, corporate notes, and commercial paper. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related security as an adjustment to yield using a method that approximates the effective interest method. Under this method, dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. At June 30, 2014, CUI Global had $11,955,454 of short-term investments classified as held-to-maturity, which are reported at amortized cost, which approximates market. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $8,860,000 of investments in certificates of deposit which were covered under FDIC insured limits and covered under $500,000 of SIPC insured programs for investments.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

Accounts receivable consist of the receivables associated with revenue derived from product sales. An allowance for uncollectible accounts is recorded to allow for any amounts that may not be recoverable, based on an analysis of prior collection experience, customer credit worthiness and current economic trends. Based on management’s review of accounts receivable, an allowance for doubtful accounts of $239,102 at June 30, 2014 is considered adequate. The reserve takes into account aged receivables that management believes should be specifically reserved for as well as historic experience with bad debts to determine the total reserve appropriate for each period. Receivables are determined to be past due based on the payment terms of original invoices. The Company grants credit to its customers, with standard terms of Net 30 days. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, therefore, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited. Additionally, the Company maintains a foreign credit receivables insurance policy that covers many of the CUI, Inc. foreign customer receivable balances in effort to further reduce credit risk exposure.

Inventory

Inventories consist of finished and un-finished products and are stated at the lower of cost or market; using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method as a cost flow convention. At June 30, 2014, inventory is valued, net at $7,175,904. The Company provides allowances for inventories estimated to be excess, obsolete or unmarketable. The Company’s estimation process for assessing the net realizable value is based upon its known backlog, projected future demand, historical usage and expected market conditions. At June 30, 2014, the Company had finished goods of $6,158,040, raw materials of $1,528,992, and an allowance of $511,128.

Land, Buildings, Furniture, Vehicles, Equipment and Software

Land is recorded at cost and includes expenditures made to ready it for use.

Buildings and improvements are recorded at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

Furniture, vehicles, equipment and software are recorded at cost and include major expenditures, which increase productivity or substantially increase useful lives.

Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and are depreciated over the lesser of the lease term, estimated useful life, or 10 years.

Maintenance, repairs and minor replacements are charged to expenses when incurred. When furniture, vehicles and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation are removed from this account, and any gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.

The cost of furniture, vehicles, equipment and software is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. The estimated useful lives for buildings, furniture, vehicles, equipment and software are as follows:

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable assets related to those assets are periodically reviewed for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are estimated. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the long-lived asset, an impairment loss is recognized as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. Otherwise, an impairment loss is not recognized. Management estimates the fair value and the estimated future cash flows expected. Any changes in these estimates could impact whether there was impairment and the amount of the impairment.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost net of accumulated amortization and impairment. The fair value for intangible assets acquired through acquisitions is measured at the time of acquisition utilizing the following inputs, as needed:

Inputs used to measure fair value are unadjusted quote prices available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities if available.

Inputs used to measure fair value, other than quoted prices included in 1, are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date through correlation with market data, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices in inactive markets. This includes assets and liabilities valued using models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment since the input assumptions used in the models, such as interest rates and volatility factors, are corroborated by readily observable data from actively quoted markets for substantially the full life of the asset.

Inputs used to measure fair value are unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

Expert appraisal and fair value measurement as completed by third party experts.

The following are the estimated useful life for the intangible assets:

** Patents are amortized over the life of the patent. Any patents not approved will be expensed at that time.

***Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life.

**** Indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed annually for impairment and when circumstances suggest.

Goodwill Assets

The Company tests for goodwill impairment in the second quarter of each year and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company determined there was no impairment of goodwill. In accordance with its policies, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill at May 31, 2014, and determined there was no impairment of goodwill.

As detailed in ASC 350-20-35-3A, in performing its testing for goodwill, management completes a qualitative analysis to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. To complete this review, management follows the steps in ASC 350-20-35-3C to evaluate the fair values of the intangibles and goodwill and considers all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of goodwill. Through these reviews, management concluded that there were no events or circumstances that triggered an impairment (and there was no expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit would be sold or otherwise disposed of in the following year), therefore, no further analysis was necessary to prepare for goodwill impairment beyond the steps in 350-20-35-3C in accordance with ASU 2011-08.

Investment – Equity Method

Through the acquisition of CUI, Inc. the Company obtained 352,589 common shares (representing an 11.54% interest thru June 30, 2013, 8.62% thru December 31, 2013, 8.94% thru March 31, 2014 and 8.50% thereafter) in Test Products International, Inc., hereafter referred to as TPI. TPI is a provider of handheld test and measurement equipment. Under the equity method, investments are carried at cost, plus or minus the Company’s proportionate share, based on present ownership interests, of: (a) the investee’s profit or loss after the date of acquisition; (b) changes in the Company’s equity that have not been recognized in the investee’s profit or loss; and (c) certain other adjustments. CUI Global enjoys a close association with this affiliate through common Board of Director membership and participation that allows for a significant amount of influence over affiliate business decisions. Accordingly, for financial statement purposes, the Company accounts for its investment in this affiliated entity under the equity method.

A summary of the financial statements of the affiliate as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:

Current assets	$	6,345,848
Non-current assets		305,529

Patent Costs

The Company estimates the patents it has filed have a future beneficial value; therefore it capitalizes the costs associated with filing for its patents. At the time the patent is approved, the patent costs associated with the patent are amortized over the useful life of the patent. If the patent is not approved, at that time the costs will be expensed.

Derivative Instruments

The Company uses various derivative instruments including forward currency contracts, and interest rate swaps to manage certain exposures. These instruments are entered into under the Company’s corporate risk management policy to minimize exposure and are not for speculative trading purposes. The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings. The Company has limited involvement with derivative instruments and does not trade them. From time to time, the Company may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to minimize the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate exposure from expected future cash flows. The Company has entered into one interest rate swap which has a maturity date of ten years from the date of inception, and is used to minimize the interest rate risk on the variable rate mortgage. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized $61,583 and $117,163 of expense related to the derivative liabilities, respectively.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 815 (“FASB ASC 815”), “Derivatives and Hedging”, which requires a periodic valuation of the fair value of derivative instruments and a corresponding recognition of liabilities associated with such derivatives.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records its stock-based compensation expense under our stock option plans and also issues stock for services. A detailed description of the awards under these plans and the respective accounting treatment is included in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $302,197 and $526,692 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

Product revenue is recognized in the period when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with a customer exists, the products are shipped and title has transferred to the customer, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. The Company sells to distributors pursuant to distribution agreements that have certain terms and conditions such as the right of return and price protection which inhibit revenue recognition unless they can be reasonably estimated as we cannot assert the price is fixed and determinable and estimate returns. For one distributor that comprises 40% and 36% of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, we have such history and ability to estimate and therefore recognized revenue upon sale to the distributor and record a corresponding reserve for the estimated returns. For a different distributor arrangement, we do not have sufficient history to reasonably estimate price protection reserve and the right of return and accordingly defer revenue and the related costs until such time as the distributor resells the product.

Revenues and related costs on production type contracts, are recognized using the “percentage of completion method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production Type Contracts (“ASC 605-35”). Under this method, contract revenues and related expenses are recognized over the performance period of the contract in direct proportion to the costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entirety of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs. All un-allocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss as it is determined. Contract costs plus recognized profits are accumulated as deferred assets, and billings and/or cash received are recorded to a deferred revenue liability account. The net of these two accounts for any individual project is presented as "Costs in excess of billings," an asset account, or "Billings in excess of costs," a liability account. At June 30, 2014, the Costs in excess of billings balance was $0 and the Billings in excess of costs balance was $5,766,757.

Production type contracts that do not qualify for use of the percentage of completion method are accounted for using the “completed contract method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35-25-57. Under this method, contract costs are accumulated as deferred assets, and billings and/or cash received is recorded to a deferred revenue liability account, during the periods of construction, but no revenues, costs, or profits are recognized in operations until the period within which completion of the contract occurs. A contract is considered complete when all costs except insignificant items have been incurred; the equipment is operating according to specifications and has been accepted by the customer.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling represent revenues earned for the goods provided and are included in sales. The Company expenses inbound shipping and handling costs as cost of revenues.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements of the Company's foreign offices have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (FASB ASC 830). All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Income statement amounts have been translated using an appropriately weighted average exchange rate for the year. The translation gains and losses resulting from the changes in exchange rates during 2014 and 2013 have been reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, except for gains and losses resulting from the translation of intercompany receivables and payables, which are included in earnings for the period.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined in accordance with ASC 280-10 as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

Following the acquisition of Orbital Gas Systems Limited in April 2013, management has identified three operating segments based on the activities of the company in accordance with the ASC 280-10. The three segments are Power and Electro-Mechanical, Gas and Other. The Power and Electro-Mechanical segment is focused on the operations of CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan for the sale of internal and external power supplies and related components, industrial controls and test and measurement devices. The Gas segment is focused on the operations of Orbital Gas Systems Limited which includes gas related test and measurement systems, including the GasPT2. The Other segment represents the remaining activities that do not meet the threshold for segment reporting and are combined.

Reclassification

Certain amounts from the prior period have been reclassified to the current period presentation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, $62,788 and $130,395, respectively, of depreciation and amortization expense was reclassified to cost of revenues on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” ASU 2013-05 provides updated guidance to clarify a parent company’s accounting for the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income upon derecognition of certain subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. This guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and is to be applied prospectively to derecognition events occurring after the effective date. This ASU did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU No 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry forward exists. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this provision did not have an impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017.

INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s fair value hierarchy for its cash equivalents, marketable securities and derivative instruments as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, was as follows:

ACQUISITION

Effective April 1, 2013, CUI Global closed on a share purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the equity interest in Orbital Gas Systems Limited, a company organized under the laws of England and Wales (“Orbital”), from Orbital’s sole shareholder. The purchase price for the acquisition of Orbital was £17,000,000 British pounds sterling (“£”), ($26,205,500), subject to purchase price adjustments, 100% of the purchase price was paid in cash. To secure indemnification obligation, 5.0% of the purchase price, or £850,000, was held in escrow through December 1, 2013.

We funded the consideration paid to the shareholder of Orbital with a portion of the net proceeds received from a public offering of our $0.001 par value common stock that was registered on an SEC Form S-1 registration statement declared effective by the SEC on April 11, 2013. Subsequent to closing on this acquisition, Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd. became a wholly owned subsidiary of CUI Global, Inc.

The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.

The allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

Purchase price	$	26,205,500
Cash and cash equivalents		8,495,993
Trade accounts receivable, net		5,597,361
Unbilled accounts receivable		66,109
Inventory, net		445,119
Costs in excess of billings		350,943
Other current assets		20,892
Property & equipment, net		1,562,908
Intangible, customer lists		7,180,307
Intangible, order backlog		3,434,462
Intangible, tradename		1,846,717
Intangible, technology-based asset know how		2,908,811
Intangible, technology-based asset software		630,474
Goodwill		8,799,622
Liabilities assumed		(11,419,029	)
Deferred tax liability		(3,715,189	)
	$	26,205,500

Key factors that make up the goodwill created by the transaction include knowledge and experience of the acquired workforce and infrastructure and expected synergies from the combination of operations as it pertains to the gas segment of CUI Global.

The table below summarizes the unaudited condensed pro forma information of the results of operations of CUI Global, Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as though the acquisition had been completed as of January 1, 2013:

	CUI Global			Orbital Gas Systems Ltd.			Adjustments		Pro Forma
Gross revenue	$	28,210,451		$	4,569,510		$	-	$	32,779,961

Adjustment to recognize the amortization expense of $731,345 of acquisition related intangible assets and a tax benefit of $143,002 as though the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period.

The above unaudited condensed pro forma information does not purport to represent what the Companies’ combined results of operations would have been if such transactions had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, and are not indicative of future results.

INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 260 (“FASB ASC 260”), “Earnings per Share”, basic net profit (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net profit (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net profit (loss) per share is computed by dividing net profit (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares outstanding as of June 30, 2014, which consist of options, have been excluded from the diluted net loss per common share calculations because they were anti-dilutive at June 30, 2014. Accordingly, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, 983,932 shares, respectively, related to options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive due to the loss position. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, 937,298 shares related to options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were antidilutive due to their exercise price being in excess of the average close price for the three month period ended. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, 1,032,141 shares related to options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive due to the loss position.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

	Three months ended					Six months ended
	June 30, 2014			June 30, 2013		June 30, 2014			June 30, 2013
Consolidated Net income (loss)	$	(66,462	)	$	437,233	$	(554,380	)	$	(24,859	)
Weighted average number of shares outstanding		20,628,347			18,835,103		20,608,048			14,881,158
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares		20,628,347			18,851,315		20,608,048			14,881,158
Basic income (loss) per common share	$	(0.00	)	$	0.02	$	(0.03	)	$	(0.00	)
Diluted income (loss) per common share	$	(0.00	)	$	0.02	$	(0.03	)	$	(0.00	)

INCOME TAXES

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., various state and foreign jurisdictions. We continue to record a full valuation allowance against our U.S. net deferred tax assets as it is not more likely than not that we will realize a benefit from these assets in a future period. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management concludes realization of such amounts is more likely than not.

A net benefit of $331,250 was recorded to the income tax provision for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 resulting in an effective tax rate of 83.29% for the period. The increase in the income tax benefit for the quarter relates primarily to a change in the estimated net loss forecasted for our foreign operations. This amount is partially offset by domestic state minimum taxes as all of our other USA tax benefits are reduced by a full valuation allowance. Our total income tax expense and effective tax rate were $49,287 and 10.13%, respectively, for the same period in 2013.

A net benefit of $359,538 was recorded to the income tax provision for the six month period ending June 30, 2014 resulting in an effective tax rate of 39.34% for the period. The income tax benefit relates primarily to our foreign operations where the benefit can be realized, but is partially offset by domestic state minimum taxes as all of our other USA tax benefits are reduced by a full valuation allowance. Our total income tax expense and effective tax rate were $59,276 and 172.23%, respectively, for the same period in 2013.

WORKING CAPITAL LINE OF CREDIT

Overview

CUI Global, Inc. is a Colorado corporation organized on April 21, 1998. The Company’s principal place of business is located at 20050 SW 112th Avenue, Tualatin, Oregon 97062, phone (503) 612-2300. CUI Global is a platform company dedicated to maximizing shareholder value through the acquisition, development and commercialization of new, innovative technologies. Through its subsidiaries, CUI Global has built a diversified portfolio of industry leading technologies that touch many markets.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, CUI Global had a loss from operations of $634,725. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, CUI Global had a consolidated net loss of $554,380. The consolidated net loss for the six months ended was primarily the result of increased selling, general and administrative expenses related to the increase in revenues and selling and marketing efforts associated with new technologies and increased depreciation and amortization expenses primarily associated with the amortization of intangible assets related to the Orbital acquisition, in excess of the increased gross profit.

CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan - Subsidiaries

CUI, Inc. is based in Tualatin, Oregon and CUI Japan is based in Tokyo, Japan. Both CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan are providers of electronic components including power supplies, transformers, converters, connectors and industrial controls for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). Through CUI, Inc., the Company holds 352,589 common shares (representing an 11.54% interest thru June 30, 2013, 8.62% interest thru December 31, 2013, 8.94% interest thru March 31, 2014 and 8.50% interest thereafter) in Test Products International, Inc., a provider of handheld test and measurement equipment. Since its inception in 1989, CUI has been delivering quality products, extensive application solutions and superior personal service. CUI's solid customer commitment and honest corporate message are a hallmark in the industry.

Through CUI’s capabilities and extensive contacts throughout Asia, CUI Global is able to continue to identify, acquire and commercialize new proprietary technologies. CUI Global will use CUI’s market partners and global distribution capabilities to bring other products to market, including the Novum Digital Power Modules, Solus Power Topology, and other proprietary devices, described below. CUI’s testing and R&D capabilities allow CUI Global to commercialize and prototype its products more efficiently and economically.

CUI and CUI Japan define their product offering into two categories: components including connectors, speakers, buzzers, test and measurement devices, and control solutions including encoders and sensors; and power solutions which include Novum and Solus. These offerings provide a technology architecture that addresses power and related accessories to industries as broadly ranging as consumer electronics, medical and defense.

The Orbital acquisition has provided CUI Global with immediate credibility and platform in the natural gas industry. Orbital is the largest natural gas systems integrator in the U.K. By acquiring Orbital, we acquired a company that has operated successfully in the natural gas industry for over 25 years.

In addition, Orbital is a leading provider of natural gas infrastructure and high-tech solutions to National Grid, the national gas transmission company in the U.K. and one of the most respected specialist gas engineering companies in the world. Orbital has developed its portfolio of products, services and resources to offer a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries.

Power Supply Units

Our current power line consists of external and embedded ac-dc power supplies, dc-dc converters and basic digital point of load modules. This dynamic, broadly applicable product line accounts for a significant portion of our current revenue and recent revenue growth.

Digital Power Patent License Agreement with Power-One

The company entered into a non-exclusive Field of Use Agreement with Power-One (a Bel Fuse company), to license Power-One’s Digital Power Technology patents. The license provides access to Power-One’s portfolio of Digital Power Technology patents for incorporation into the company’s new line of digital point of load power modules. The company, through its power division, also manufactures a wide range of embedded and external power electronics devices for OEM manufacturers.

Novum ^®Advanced Power

We have developed the first fully featured digital point of load dc-dc converter in the power market under our Novum Advanced Power line of products. This product is a next generation product targeted at the intermediate bus power architecture that is prolifically used in the telecom and networking communications market. In September of 2010 we released full production versions of two point of load modules. We were finalists for the prestigious Golden Mousetrap Award and EDN Innovation Award for these parts in 2010. With the shift towards smarter, smaller, and more energy efficient power requirements, our engineers are seeking innovative solutions that allow them to keep pace with lower core voltages, faster transient response needs and increasing thermal issues that they face in their designs. Our recently introduced Novum NDM2 modules, with a full suite of digital features, specifically address these growing system complexities through intelligent power management. The NDM2 series is the first to be designed by the company as part of the Ericsson cooperation announced in July 2011. The agreement formalizes a plan between the two companies to offer a multisource digital POL platform based on the Ericsson BMR46X series, with future plans to co-develop modules outside the existing range of 10~50A. We have also developed a middle ground product to ease the customer base into the benefits of digital in power. We developed a “smart module” that allows for the benefits of digital in the design cycle but when installed functions like a highly optimized analog unit.

Solus ^®Topology License with California Power Research

The company entered into an exclusive Field of Use Agreement with California Power Research to license their BPS-5 topology, now marketed as the Solus Topology. This topology provides industry leading efficiencies and densities in power design. The topology is broadly applicable to both DC-DC and AC-DC products. This will allow for the company to have a long roadmap of industry leading products to service its broad customer base. In addition, its first target is the Intermediate Bus Architecture (IBA) where the Digital POL modules are used.

Solus ^®Power Topology

Through the Solus Topology, we have a proprietary patented power topology for designing unique power circuits. This topology allows for higher efficiencies, densities, response time, and price competitiveness that is otherwise unavailable. Our initial product designed using this topology is in the quarter brick dc-dc converter market. Solus is an entirely new topology, rich in features that accelerate the performance trend trajectories for the bigfour power conversion needs in the telecom and server markets: greater efficiency; higher power density; reduced EMI (electro-magnetic interference); and faster transient response four times as fast. We have introduced the NQB2060 Novum^®one quarter brick bus converter as a prime example of the benchmark 720 watts output power performance using the Solus Topology. Since the Solus Topology maintains its effectiveness independent of the control method used, it can operate with analog voltage mode control, analog current mode control, and various digital control profiles. We believe that unique feature opens the door for the company to implement this topology in a wide variety of power supply product platforms. We also believe that this topology will allow for at least a decade of new product designs and introductions.

As the large scale networking and telecommunications companies convert to digital power, our early entry into the market, our unique Solus Topology, and our relationship with Ericsson should enhance our ability to penetrate this (according to the Darnell Group) multi-billion dollar market.

Components AMT^®

Encoder

The company has an exclusive agreement to develop, sell and distribute the AMT encoder worldwide. The AMT series modular encoder is designed with proprietary, capacitive, code-generating technology as opposed to optical or magnetic encoding. This unique device allows breakthroughs in selectable resolution, shaft-adaptation and convenient mounting solutions to bring ease of installation, reduction in SKU’s and economies of scale in purchasing.

The AMT amounts to almost 2000 different encoders in one package. The company is selling and distributing the AMT through various customers. Moreover, the product is being marketed by multiple DC motor manufacturers. The AMT has been awarded several design wins from Motion Control OEM’s producing a wide range of products from cash machines to robotics.

The certification of compliance with ISO 9001:2008 recognizes that our policies, practices and procedures ensure consistent quality in the design services, technology and products we provide our customers.

Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd. - Subsidiary

The Orbital acquisition provided CUI Global with immediate credibility and platform in the natural gas industry. Orbital is the largest natural gas systems integrator in the U.K. By acquiring Orbital, we acquired a company that has operated successfully in the natural gas industry for over 25 years. In addition, Orbital is a leading provider of natural gas infrastructure and high-tech solutions to National Grid, the national gas transmission company in the U.K. and one of the most respected transmission companies in the world. Orbital has developed its portfolio of products, services and resources to offer a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries.

On July 19, 2013, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd., acquired exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture, sell, design, and otherwise market the VE-Probe and VE-Technology from its United Kingdom-based inventor, EnDet Ltd. The agreement gives Orbital exclusive and sole control of all technology related to its revolutionary GasPT2 and GasPTi natural gas metering systems. By combining the GasPT2 technology with the equally unique VEProbe, which is able to provide a gas sample from a high pressure transmission line in less than two seconds, Orbital has created the GasPTi metering system. The GasPTi system is able to accurately provide almost real-time data to the natural gas operator in a total cycle-time of less than five seconds.

GasPT2

Through an exclusive licensing contract with GL Industrial Services UK, Ltd. (GL), formerly British-based Advantica, Ltd., CUI Global owns exclusive rights to manufacture, sell and distribute a Gas Quality Inferential Measurement Device (GasPT2) designed by GL on a worldwide basis, now marketed as the GasPT2.

The natural gas inferential metering device, the GasPT2, is a low cost solution to measuring natural gas quality. It can be connected to a natural gas system to provide a fast, accurate, close to real time measurement of the physical properties, such as thermal conductivity, speed of sound and carbon dioxide content. From these measurements it infers an effective gas mixture comprising four components: methane, propane, nitrogen, and measured carbon dioxide and then uses ISO6976 to calculate the gas quality characteristics of calorific value (CV), Wobbe index (WI), relative density (RD), and compression factor (Z). An ISO, International Organization for Standardization, is a documented agreement containing technical specifications or other precise criteria to be used consistently as rules, guidelines or definitions of characteristics to ensure that materials, products, processes and services are fit for their purpose.

This new and innovative technology has been certified for use in fiscal monitoring by Ofgem in the United Kingdom, the Polish Oil & Gas Company Department of Testing and Calibration in Warsaw, NOVA Chemical/TransCanada in Canada, the Pipeline Research Counsel International (PRCI) in the US and SNAM RETE in Italy. At present, there is no equivalent product competition. There are instruments like gas chromatographs (“GC”), but they are slow, complicated to use and as much as five times the price of the GasPT2.

By way of example, in the case of SNAM RETE, the Italian gas transmission company, there are 13 natural gas injection points for the SNAM RETE system. Those injection points will continue to use GC’s for monitoring. On the other hand, there are 1,500 customer access points, servicing 7,500 customers. Those would include city gates, large industrial users, power generation plants and others. All of those customer access ports would be applicable for the GasPT2 Technology.

In addition, there are currently 50,000 gas-fired turbines in operation worldwide. Each of those turbines is subject to variances in natural gas quality. Depending on the quality of the gas, by using our GasPTi Technology, those very expensive machines can be tuned to run more efficiently and therefore longer with much cleaner emissions. Currently, because of the delay in information from the GC’s, such tuning cannot be effectively accomplished. It is this greater efficiency that has lead National Grid in the UK to change its entire turbine control strategy, recently cancelling an order for several GC’s and, in October 2013, replacing those GC’s with an order for eight (8) GasPTi devices specifically designed for natural gas-fired turbine control.

In conjunction with the Orbital acquisition, we have moved the entire GasPT2 technology portfolio, along with the VE-Probe, into Orbital’s product division, Orbital Global Solutions. Orbital-GS has successfully introduced the combined GasPT2 unit and VE-Probe to National Grid, the largest natural gas provider in the UK. In January 2012 the company entered into a five (5) year, exclusive distribution agreement for our GasPT2 technology with an Italian company, SOCRATE s.p.a. for sales, marketing, distribution and service of our GasPT2 gas metering device for Italy and North Africa, including Libya and Tunisia. SOCRATE is the “vendor-of-choice” for SNAM RETE GAS (“SRG”) and was referred to the company by SRG. SOCRATE continues to be involved in negotiations with SRG relative to both the 2010 Technical Upgrade of Metering Facilities and 2011/2012 New Capacity and Implementation Plan. In conjunction with those two initiatives, SOCRATE has recently ordered a demonstration unit and several field test units for installation on the SRG transmission system.

Following the acquisition of Orbital and the transfer of gas operations to Orbital-GS, the company has entered into a series of Distribution Agreements with internationally recognized entities in the natural gas industry, including, but not limited, Ives Equipment Corporation in the US and Benchmark Engineering in Canada. These agreements are designed to supplement and enhance our previously announced and continuing agreements with BWG/Blue Flame and SOCRATE.

Intellectual Property

The Company relies on various intellectual property laws and contractual restrictions to protect its proprietary rights in products, logos and services. These include confidentiality, invention assignment and nondisclosure agreements with employees, contractors, suppliers and strategic partners. The confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with employees, contractors and suppliers are in perpetuity or for a sufficient length of time so as to not threaten exposure of proprietary information.

CUI Global continues to file and protect its intellectual property rights, trademarks and products through filings with the US Patent and Trademark Office and, as applicable, internationally. The company also ensures, through specific provisions and agreements, that all licensed technology is fully patent-protected in the US and internationally by the Licensor, where applicable.

The Company estimates the patent applications it has filed will have a future beneficial value to the Company; thus, it capitalizes the costs associated with filing for its patents. At the time the patent is issued, the patent costs associated with the patent are amortized over the useful life of the patent. If the patent is not issued, at that time the costs will be expensed. A change in the estimate of the patent having a future beneficial value to the Company will impact the other assets and expense accounts of the Company.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses include such items as wages, commissions, consulting, general office expenses, business promotion expenses and costs of being a public company, including legal and accounting fees, insurance and investor relations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, SG&A expenses increased $3,458,429. The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily associated with the addition of the SG&A activities of Orbital Gas Systems Limited which was acquired in April 2013 and accounted for approximately $2.0 million of additional expenses during the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the prior year as well as increases associated with the ongoing activities to reach new customers, promote new product lines including Novum, Solus, GasPT, IRIS and VE-Probe, new product introductions, as well as the overall growth in expenses in relation to the revenue growth. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A increased during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 to 35% from 33% during the prior year comparable period.

The increase of $1,205,350 during the three months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily associated with the ongoing activities to reach new customers, promote new product lines, new product introductions, as well as the overall growth in expenses in relation to the revenue growth during the quarter. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A increased during the three month period ended June 30, 2014 to 34% from 29% during the prior year comparable period.

The SG&A associated with Orbital includes, among other things, the continued sales efforts and related costs for the GasPT2 products and other gas systems sold through Orbital. Additional factors impacting the three and six month increases are the ongoing activities to support the revenue growth through the Power and Electro-Mechanical segment, which generated increased revenues during the six month period of approximately $2.2 million and $1.0 during the three month period ended June 30, 2014.

Depreciation and Amortization

The depreciation and amortization expenses are associated with the depreciated buildings, furniture, equipment, vehicles, software and other intangible assets over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the total depreciation and amortization expenses were $2,256,051 and $1,194,402, respectively. The total depreciation and amortization expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 include $126,883 and $130,395, respectively, which are included in cost of revenues. The large increase in the depreciation and amortization expense between periods is primarily the result of the first quarter 2014 amortization expense of $785,099 associated with the identifiable intangible assets that were acquired with Orbital Gas Systems Limited during the second quarter of 2013, as well as the depreciation of ongoing operating assets and the headquarters building acquired during the fourth quarter of 2013.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the total depreciation and amortization expenses were $1,137,608 and $983,266, respectively. The total depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 include $61,453 and $62,788, respectively, which are included in cost of revenues. The increase during the three months comparable period is primarily associated with the depreciation of ongoing operating assets, including additions such as the headquarters building acquired during the fourth quarter of 2013.

Research and Development

The research and development costs are related to the development of technology and products. Research and development costs were $598,617 and $443,465 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded an expense of $328,765 and $198,775, respectively.

Research and development costs are associated with the continued research and development of new and existing technologies including the Novum digital power modules, Solus advanced power topology, GasPT2, and other products.

Other Income

Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 consisted primarily of $71,355 of gain on foreign exchange, $68,345 of interest income, and $12,000 rental income. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 consisted primarily of $64,515 of gain on foreign exchange, $39,888 of interest income, and $12,000 of rental income.

Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 consisted primarily of $28,852 of gain on foreign exchange, $35,035 of interest income, and $6,000 rental income. Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 consisted of $18,865 of gain on foreign exchange, $31,192 of interest income, and $6,000 of rental income.

Investment Income

The Company recognized earnings of $42,110 on equity investment in affiliate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to a loss of $4,126 during the same period in 2013.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 the Company recognized earnings of $26,740 on equity investment in affiliate as compared to a loss of $6,229 during the same period in 2013.

Amortization of debt offering costs

The Company recorded an amortization of debt offering costs expense of $0 and $36,666 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an expense of $0 and $18,333, respectively, for the amortization of debt offering costs.

The capitalized debt offering costs for which the 2013 expense related was fully amortized during 2013.

Interest Expense

The Company incurred interest expense of $253,274 and $201,453 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred interest expense of $127,783 and $86,979, respectively.

The 2014 expense is associated with interest on bank and secured promissory notes payable. The 2013 expense is associated with interest on the bank operating line of credit, bank loans, and secured and unsecured promissory notes. The increase in both the three and six month periods is primarily due to the mortgage note payable and related interest swap agreement associated with the purchase of the CUI headquarters facility in the fourth quarter of 2013 as well as the reduction associated with the $2,000,000 principal payment on the note payable to International Electronic Devices during 2013 and the repayment of the borrowing on the line of credit during 2013.

Provision (benefit) for taxes

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

As of June 30, 2014, CUI Global held Cash and cash equivalents of $15,182,145 and investments of $11,955,454. Operations, acquisitions, investments, patents, equipment, land and buildings have been funded through cash on hand, and cash from operations.

Cash Provided by Operations

Operating requirements generated positive cash flow from operations of $48,683 during the six months June 30, 2014, versus positive cash flow from operations of $0.6 million for the same period 2013. The change in cash from operations is primarily the result of the increases in assets from operating activities offset by the net income earned before non-cash expenses.

Significant factors that impacted the cash used in operations include increased receivables of approximately $2.0 million associated primarily with the timing of deliveries and related sales terms. Additionally, the cash flow from operations was impacted by an approximately $0.4 million increase in prepaid expenses associated largely with prepaid insurance premiums and consulting services fees. At the same time, costs in excess of billings decreased approximately $0.6 million associated with the progress on the related projects. Accounts payable increased approximately $0.5 million primarily due to the timing of goods receipts and the related terms. Accrued expenses increased $0.1 million primarily due to the decrease in accrued inventory payable which is a function of the timing of delivery schedules to meet customer order requirements. Accrued compensation increased $0.1 million due to the timing of payroll related liability payment requirements, and employee compensation accruals including commissions and performance bonuses accrued. Accrued taxes increased $0.1 million primarily in relation to value-added tax payables. Unearned revenue increased $0.4 million and billings in excess of costs decreased $1.2 million during the period, these are associated with several customer prepayments and deferred revenues including certain power and electro-mechanical product sales through distribution.

During the first six months of 2014 and 2013, the Company used stock and options as a form of payment to certain vendors, consultants and employees. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the Company recorded a total of $526,692 and $295,541 for compensation and services expense including amortization of deferred compensation related to equity given, or to be given, to employees and consultants for services provided. The increase in 2014 as compared to 2013 is attributable to increases in stock compensation expense for stock issued to consultants for strategic consulting services regarding the testing and demonstration of the GasPT2 technology and an increase in options related expenses for options granted to employees and directors that expense over their associated vesting life.

As the Company focuses on technology development and product line additions during 2014, it will continue to fund research and development together with related sales and marketing efforts for its various product offerings with cash on hand and cash flows from continuing operations.

Capital Expenditures and Investments

During the second quarters of 2014 and 2013, CUI Global invested $483,262 and $442,086, respectively, in fixed assets. These investments typically include additions to equipment and software for engineering and research and development, tooling for manufacturing, furniture, regular computer equipment and software upgrades for office personnel and other fixed assets as needed for operations. The Company anticipates further investment in fixed assets during 2014 in support of its on-going business and continued development of product lines and technologies.

The Company invested a net $1,118,794 in short term investments classified as held to maturity during the six months period ended June 30, 2014. These investments included money market securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and corporate notes. There were no funds invested in short term investments classified as held to maturity during the period ended June 30, 2013. Investments made by the Company are subject to an investment policy which limits our risk of loss exposure by setting appropriate strategic consulting services regarding the testing and demonstration of the GasPT2 technology credit quality requirements for investments held, limiting maturities to be 1 year or less, and also setting appropriate concentration levels to prevent concentrations. This includes a requirement that no more than 3% of the portfolio, or $500,000, whichever is greater, may be invested in one particular issue.

Financing Activities

During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company made payments of $70,719 toward capital lease obligations and $38,082 toward the mortgage note payable. During the same period in 2013, the Company received net proceeds after related expenses of $45,135,280 from the registered offering sale of 9,660,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share, and made payments of $459,448 against the line of credit, and $3,736 was paid against capital lease obligations.

CUI Global may raise additional capital needed to fund the further development and marketing of its products as well as payment of its debt obligations.

Financing activities – related party activity

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, $132,592 and $190,271, respectively, of interest payments were made in relation to the promissory notes issued to related party, IED, Inc. Also during the first six months ended June 30, 2013, payments of $2,000,000 were made against the related party note payable.

Recap of Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company continued to maintain its financial strength. This included the improved net loss from the prior year when excluding the significant amortization expense of approximately $1.6 million associated with intangible assets acquired as part of the April 2013 Orbital acquisition. The Wells Fargo mortgage promissory note has a balance at June 30, 2014 of $3,642,974 due, of which $78,764 is the current portion. As of the date of this filing, the Company is compliant with all covenants on the promissory note with Wells Fargo Bank. Additionally, at June 30, 2014, the Company had a $0 balance on its $4,000,000 two year revolving Line of Credit (LOC) with Wells Fargo Bank. As of the date of this filing, the Company is compliant with all covenants on the line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents balances of $15,182,145 and short term investments held to maturity of $11,955,454. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $2,889,954 of cash and cash equivalents balances at domestic financial institutions which were covered under the FDIC insured deposits programs and $144,738 at foreign financial institutions covered under the United Kingdom Financial Services Compensation (FSC). At June 30, 2014 the Company held $243,854 in Japanese bank accounts and $6,000,498 in European bank accounts. At June 30 2014, CUI Global had $11,955,454 of short-term investments classified as held-to-maturity, which are reported at amortized cost, which approximates market. At June 30, 2014, the Company had $8,860,000 of investments in certificates of deposit which were covered under FDIC insured limits and covered under $500,000 of SIPC insured programs for investments.

At June 30, 2014, the Company has capital lease obligations of $157,923, of which $64,279 are current obligations.

The Company believes its operations and existing financing structure, including cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments will provide sufficient cash to meet its short-term working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

While all these significant accounting policies impact its financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” ASU 2013-05 provides updated guidance to clarify a parent company’s accounting for the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income upon derecognition of certain subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity or of an investment in a foreign entity. This guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and is to be applied prospectively to derecognition events occurring after the effective date. This ASU had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Credit Carryforward Exists.” ASU No 2013-11 provides explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry forward exists. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this provision had no impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. This market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company neither holds nor issues financial instruments for trading purposes.

The following sections provide quantitative information on the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk and stock price risk. The Company makes use of sensitivity analyses that are inherently limited in estimating actual losses in fair value that can occur from changes in market conditions.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

The Company conducts operations in three principal currencies: the U.S. dollar, the British pound sterling and the Japanese yen. These currencies operate primarily as the functional currency for the Company’s U.S., U.K. and Japanese operations, respectively. Cash is managed centrally within each of the three regions.

Because of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Company is subject to currency translation exposure on the results of its operations. Foreign currency translation risk is the risk that exchange rate gains or losses arise from translating foreign entities’ statements of earnings and balance sheets from functional currency to the Company’s reporting currency, the U.S. dollar, for consolidation purposes. As currency exchange rates fluctuate, translation of our Statements of Operations into U.S. dollars affects the comparability of revenues and operating expenses between years.

Revenues and operating expenses are primarily denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our operations are located, the U.S., U.K. and Japan. Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

The table below details the percentage of revenues and expenses by the three principal currencies for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 an 2013:

	U.S. Dollars			British Pound Sterling (1)			Japanese Yen
Six months ended June 30, 2014
Revenues		66	%		32	%		2	%
Operating expenses		62	%		38	%		0	%
Six months ended June 30, 2013
Revenues		78	%		20	%		2	%
Operating expenses		82	%		17	%		1	%
Three months ended June 30, 2014
Revenues		69	%		29	%		2	%
Operating expenses		62	%		38	%		0	%
Three months ended June 30, 2013
Revenues		67	%		31	%		2	%
Operating expenses		70	%		29	%		1	%

¹ On April 18, 2013, we closed on our share purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the equity interest in Orbital Gas Systems Limited which was effective April 1, 2013.

To date, we have not entered into any hedging arrangements with respect to foreign currency risk and have limited activity with forward foreign currency contracts or other similar derivative instruments. The Company believes, that during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the effect of a hypothetical 100 basis point shift in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business would not have had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Investment Risk

The Company has an Investment Policy that, inter alia, provides an internal control structure that takes into consideration safety (credit risk and interest rate risk), liquidity and yield. Our Investment officers, CEO and CFO, oversee the investment portfolio and compile a quarterly analysis of the investment portfolio.

Cash and cash equivalents are diversified and maintained with several financial institutions. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit, therefore, bear minimal credit risk.

The Company has trade receivable and revenues concentrations with large customers. Additionally, the Company has a large concentration of trade receivables and revenues in the United Kingdom.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply their judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and the CFO, concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We continue to evaluate and, where appropriate, design and enhance controls over financial reporting related to processes that require improvement. Toward this objective, management has fully remediated in the quarter ended June 30, 2014 the material weaknesses that remained as of the March 31, 2014 quarterly report regarding acquisition accounting requirements and revenue recognition in conjunction with distributor agreements. Other than these identified changes, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
