1. Description of Business

Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) is a materials technology and manufacturing company that develops and commercializes products made from amorphous alloys. The Company’s family of alloys consists of a variety of bulk alloys and composites that utilizes the advantages offered by amorphous alloys technology. The Company designs, develops, manufactures and sells custom products and components from bulk amorphous alloys to customers in a wide range of industries. The Company also partners with third-party manufacturers and licensees to develop and commercialize Liquidmetal alloy products.

Amorphous alloys are, in general, unique materials that are distinguished by their ability to retain a random atomic structure when they solidify, in contrast to the crystalline atomic structure that forms in other metals and alloys when they solidify. Liquidmetal alloys are proprietary amorphous alloys that possess a combination of performance, processing, and potential cost advantages that the Company believes will make them preferable to other materials in a variety of applications. The amorphous atomic structure of bulk alloys enables them to overcome certain performance limitations caused by inherent weaknesses in crystalline atomic structures, thus facilitating performance and processing characteristics superior in many ways to those of their crystalline counterparts. The Company’s alloys and the injection molding technology it employs results in components that exhibit: exceptional dimensional control and repeatability that rivals precision machining, excellent corrosion resistance, brilliant surface finish, high strength, high hardness, high elastic limit, alloys that are non-magnetic, and the ability to form complex shapes common to the injection molding of plastics. Interestingly, all of these characteristics are achievable from the molding process, so design engineers do not have to select specific alloys to achieve one or more of the characteristics as is the case with crystalline materials. The Company believes these advantages could result in Liquidmetal alloys supplanting high-performance alloys, such as titanium and stainless steel, and other incumbent materials in a wide variety of applications. Moreover, the Company believes these advantages could enable the introduction of entirely new products and applications that are not possible or commercially viable with other materials.

The Company’s revenues are derived from i) selling bulk amorphous alloy custom products and components for applications, which include, but are not limited to, non-consumer electronic devices, medical products, automotive components, and sports and leisure goods, ii) selling tooling and prototype parts such as demonstration parts and test samples for customers with products in development, iii) product licensing and royalty revenue, and iv) research and development revenue. The Company expects that these sources of revenue will continue to significantly change the character of the Company’s revenue mix.

2. Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future periods or the year ending December 31, 2016. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 7, 2016.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policy complies with the requirements of ASC 605. Revenue is recognized when i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, ii) delivery has occurred, iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, iv) collection is probable and v) all obligations have been substantially performed pursuant to the terms of the arrangement. Revenues primarily consist of bulk amorphous alloy custom products and components, the tooling associated with production and prototyping projects, and licensing and royalty fees for the use of the Liquidmetal brand and certified Liquidmetal bulk amorphous alloys. Revenue is deferred and included in liabilities when the Company receives cash in advance for goods not yet delivered or if the licensing term has not begun.

License revenue arrangements in general provide for the grant of certain intellectual property rights for patented technologies owned or controlled by the Company. These rights typically include the grant of an exclusive or non-exclusive right to manufacture and/or sell products covered by patented technologies owned or controlled by the Company. The intellectual property rights granted may be perpetual in nature, extending until the expiration of the related patents, or can be granted for a defined period of time.

Licensing revenues that are one time fees upon the granting of the license are recognized when i) the license term begins in a manner consistent with the nature of the transaction and the earnings process is complete, ii) when collectability is reasonably assured or upon receipt of an upfront fee, and iii) when all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, the Company has no further obligation with respect to the grant of the license. Licensing revenues that are related to royalties are recognized as the royalties are earned over the related period.

Fair Value Measurements

The estimated fair values of financial instruments reported in the consolidated financial statements have been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies, as applicable. The fair value of cash, restricted cash, and short-term debt approximate their carrying value due to their short maturities.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Entities are required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value based upon the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 —

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 —

Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3 —

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company has several financial instruments, namely warrant liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a periodic basis using Level 2 measurement inputs. These instruments are evaluated under the hierarchy of FASB ASC Subtopic 480-10, FASB ASC Paragraph 815-25-1 and FASB ASC Subparagraph 815-10-15-74 addressing the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity and derivative accounting. The fair value of such instruments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Due to the presence of certain anti-dilution and exercise price reset provisions such instruments are required to be classified as liabilities (see Note 11).

As of June 30, 2016, the following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Fair Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Warrant liabilities (current)		983		-		983		-
Warrant liabilities (long-term)		2,284		-		2,284		-

As of December 31, 2015, the following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Fair Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Warrant liabilities (long-term)		59		-		59		-

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which modifies the accounting for leasing arrangements, particularly those arrangements classified as operating leases. This update will require entities to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from operating leases on the balance sheet. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all leasing arrangements. The Company is currently assessing the effects this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

In March 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, inclusive of income tax accounting and disclosure considerations. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all impacted share-based payment arrangements. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which modifies the requirements for identifying, allocating, and recognizing revenue related to the achievement of performance conditions under contracts with customers. This update also requires additional disclosure related to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized under contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for fiscal and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all revenue arrangements. The Company is currently assessing the effects this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

In August 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which requires an assessment of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently addressed by U.S. auditing standards. This standard is effective for the fiscal years ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Inventory

In July 2015, the FASB issued an accounting standards update which modifies the requirements for measuring the value of inventory on a periodic basis. The new requirement will be to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. This standard is effective for the fiscal years ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

3. Significant Transactions

2016 Purchase Agreement

On March 10, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “2016 Purchase Agreement”) with Liquidmetal Technology Limited, a Hong Kong company (the “Investor”), providing for the purchase by the Investor of up to 405,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $63,400.

The 2016 Purchase Agreement provides that the Investor is obligated to purchase up to 405,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in multiple closings, with the Investor having purchased 105,000,000 shares at an aggregate purchase price of $8,400 (or $0.08 per share) at the initial closing on March 10, 2016. The 2016 Purchase Agreement provides that the Investor will purchase the remaining 200,000,000 shares at $0.15 per share and 100,000,000 shares at $0.25 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $55,000 no later than 90 days after the satisfaction of certain conditions, including Company shareholder approval of an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation increasing the Company’s authorized number of shares of common stock from 700,000,000 to 1,100,000,000 (the “Charter Amendment”).

In addition to the shares issuable under the 2016 Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued to the Investor a warrant to acquire 10,066,809 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.07 per share. The warrant vests in increments on each closing date under the 2016 Purchase Agreement for a number of warrant shares that is proportionate to the amount of shares purchased under the 2016 Purchase Agreement on such closing date (with 2,609,913 warrant shares having initially vested on March 10, 2016). The warrant will expire on the 10th anniversary of its issuance date; provided however, that should the subsequent closings under the 2016 Purchase Agreement not occur prior to the 90th day after the filing of the Charter Amendment, the warrant will automatically terminate and the Investor shall have no further right to exercise the remaining unvested 7,456,896 warrant shares under the warrant.

The 2016 Purchase Agreement also provides that the Investor will have the right to designate one (1) individual to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors. Once the Investor purchases the remaining 300,000,000 shares of common stock under the 2016 Purchase Agreement, the Investor will thereafter have the right to designate an additional two individuals to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors (such that the Investor would have designation rights with respect to three of the seven members of the Company’s Board of Directors, with one such member serving as Chairman). The 2016 Purchase Agreement also provides that, with certain limited exceptions, if the Company issues any shares of common stock at any time through the 5th anniversary of the Purchase Agreement, the Investor will have a preemptive right to subscribe for and to purchase at the same price per share (or at market price, in the case of issuance of shares pursuant to stock options) the number of shares necessary to maintain its ownership percentage of Company-issued shares of common stock.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

(numbers in thousands, except share and per share data)

(unaudited)

On May 19, 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved the Charter Amendment, thereby obligating the Investor to purchase the remaining 300,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for the aggregate purchase price of $55,000. If the Investor fails to purchase the remaining 300,000,000 shares of common stock by August 17, 2016 (the 90th day subsequent to the filing of the Charter Amendment), the Investor will forfeit certain rights, including the right to designate additional directors to the Company’s Board of Directors and the right to exercise the above described preemptive right. In such event, the Company will also have the right to repurchase all of the 105,000,000 shares held by the Investor at a per-share price of $0.08 within 15 months following the approval and filing of the Charter Amendment.

Eontec License Agreement

In connection with the 2016 Purchase Agreement and also on March 10, 2016, the Company and DongGuan Eontec Co., Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation (“Eontec”), entered into a Parallel License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company and Eontec entered into a cross-license of their respective technologies.

The License Agreement provides for the cross-license of certain patents, technical information, and trademarks between the Company and Eontec. In particular, under the License Agreement, the Company granted to Eontec a paid-up, royalty-free, perpetual license (or sublicense, as the case may be) to the Company’s patents and related technical information to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, export and import products in certain geographic areas outside of North America and Europe, and Eontec granted to the Company a paid-up, royalty-free, perpetual license (or sublicense, as the case may be) to Eontec’s patents and related technical information to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, export and import products in certain geographic areas outside of specified countries in Asia. The license granted by the Company to Eontec is exclusive (including to the exclusion to the Company) in the countries of Brunei, Cambodia, China (P.R.C and R.O.C.), East Timor, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, North Korea, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand and Vietnam. The license granted by Eontec to the Company is exclusive (including to the exclusion of Eontec) in North America and Europe. The cross-licenses are non-exclusive in geographic areas outside of the foregoing exclusive territories.

The facility has been extended through August 25, 2016, with reductions in available borrowings and associated collateral requirements to $1,000. Amounts available under this facility are secured by cash collateral. Such collateral is included as restricted cash on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2016, there was $700 in outstanding borrowings under this facility. Interest expense applicable to these borrowings was $4 and $8 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, and $0 for the corresponding three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015.

Apple License Transaction

On August 5, 2010, the Company entered into a license transaction with Apple Inc. (“Apple”) pursuant to which (i) the Company contributed substantially all of its intellectual property assets to a newly organized special-purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary, called Crucible Intellectual Property, LLC (“CIP”), (ii) CIP granted to Apple a perpetual, worldwide, fully-paid, exclusive license to commercialize such intellectual property in the field of consumer electronic products, as defined in the license agreement, in exchange for a license fee, and (iii) CIP granted back to the Company a perpetual, worldwide, fully-paid, exclusive license to commercialize such intellectual property in all other fields of use. Additionally, in connection with the license transaction, Apple required the Company to complete a statement of work related to the exchange of Liquidmetal intellectual property information. The Company recognized a portion of the one-time license fee upon receipt of the initial payment and completion of the foregoing requirements under the license transaction. The remaining portion of the one-time license fee was recognized at the completion of the required statement of work.

Visser Precision Cast, LLC License Agreement

On June 1, 2012, the Company entered into a Master Transaction Agreement (the “Visser MTA”) with Visser Precision Cast, LLC (“Visser”) relating to a strategic transaction for manufacturing services and financing. On May 20, 2014, the Company and Visser entered into a settlement agreement significantly amending the Visser MTA, whereby the Company granted to Visser a fully paid-up, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, non-transferable, nonexclusive sublicense to all of the Company’s intellectual property developed on or prior to May 20, 2014 (the “Effective Date”). Visser does not have any rights, now or in the future, to intellectual property of the Company developed after the Effective Date. The license to the Company’s intellectual property developed on or prior to the Effective Date does not include the right to use the “Liquidmetal” trademark or any of the Company’s other trademarks, except in certain defined situations, as set forth in the amended and restated agreement.

With the foregoing revised arrangements, the Company is no longer required to use Visser as its exclusive manufacturer and is free to license other manufacturers on a non-exclusive basis in any industry or geographic market as to which the Company has not previously granted an exclusive license to a third party. Additionally, the settlement amended and restated the two warrants the Company issued to Visser in June 2012 to purchase 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.22 per share. The amended and restated warrant agreement includes the effect of anti-dilution adjustments and is exercisable for 18,611,079 shares of common stock (increased further to 21,126,522 shares under the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants, see Note 11) at an exercise price of $0.17 per share (further reduced to $0.16 per share under the anti-dilution provisions of the warrants, see Note 11).

Other License Transactions

On January 31, 2012, the Company entered into a Supply and License Agreement for a five year term with Engel Austria Gmbh (“Engel”) whereby Engel was granted a non-exclusive license to manufacture and sell injection molding machines to the Company’s licensees. Since that time, the Company and Engel have agreed on an injection molding machine configuration that can be commercially supplied and supported by Engel. On December 6, 2013, the companies entered into an Exclusivity Agreement for a 10 year term whereby the Company agreed, with certain exceptions and limitations, that the Company and its licensees would purchase amorphous alloy injection molding machines exclusively from Engel, and this exclusivity right was granted in exchange for certain royalties to be paid by Engel to the Company based on a percentage of the net sales price of such injection molding machines.

The Company’s Liquidmetal Golf subsidiary has the exclusive right and license to utilize the Company’s Liquidmetal alloy technology for purposes of golf equipment applications. This right and license is set forth in an intercompany license agreement between Liquidmetal Technologies and Liquidmetal Golf. This license agreement provides that Liquidmetal Golf has a perpetual and exclusive license to use Liquidmetal alloy technology for the purpose of manufacturing, marketing, and selling golf club components and other products used in the sport of golf. The Company owns 79% of the outstanding common stock of Liquidmetal Golf.

In June 2003, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with LLPG, Inc. (“LLPG”). Under the terms of the agreement, LLPG has the exclusive right to commercialize Liquidmetal alloys, particularly precious-metal based compositions, in jewelry and high-end luxury product markets. The Company, in turn, will receive royalty payments over the life of the contract on all Liquidmetal products produced and sold by LLPG. The exclusive license agreement with LLPG expires on December 31, 2021.

In March 2009, the Company entered into a license agreement with Swatch Group, Ltd. (“Swatch”) under which Swatch was granted a non-exclusive license to the Company’s technology to produce and market watches and certain other luxury products. In March 2011, this license agreement was amended to grant Swatch exclusive rights as to watches and all third parties (including the Company), but non-exclusive as to Apple, and the Company’s license agreement with LLPG was simultaneously amended to exclude watches from LLPG’s rights. The Company will receive royalty payments over the life of the contract on all Liquidmetal products produced and sold by Swatch. The license agreement with Swatch will expire on the expiration date of the last licensed patent.

4. Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company’s cash used in operations was $4,058, cash flows from investing activities were $924, primarily due to reductions in restricted cash as a result of collateral requirement reductions, and cash provided by financing activities was $8,415 due to cash received from equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement and the exercise of stock options. As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s cash and restricted cash balance was $9,060, which consisted of $8,054 of cash and $1,006 of short-term restricted cash.

On March 10, 2016, the Company entered into the 2016 Purchase Agreement with Liquidmetal Technology Limited providing for the purchase by the Investor of up to 405,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $63,400.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

(unaudited)

The 2016 Purchase Agreement provides that the Investor is obligated to purchase up to 405,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in multiple closings, with the Investor having purchased 105,000,000 shares at an aggregate purchase price of $8,400 (or $0.08 per share) at the initial closing on March 10, 2016. The 2016 Purchase Agreement provides that the Investor will purchase the remaining 200,000,000 shares at $0.15 per share and 100,000,000 shares at $0.25 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $55,000 no later than ninety days after the satisfaction of certain conditions, including Company shareholder approval of the Charter Amendment. On May 19, 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved the Charter Amendment, thereby obligating the Investor to purchase the remaining 300,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock by August 17, 2016 for the aggregate purchase price of $55,000 (see Note 3).

The Company anticipates that its current capital resources, when considering expected losses from operations and excluding the potential additional $55,000 investment by the Investor, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations through the middle of 2017. The Company has a relatively limited history of producing bulk amorphous alloy products and components on a mass-production scale. Furthermore, the ability of future contract manufacturers to produce the Company’s products in desired quantities and at commercially reasonable prices is uncertain and is dependent on a variety of factors that are outside of the Company’s control, including the nature and design of the component, the customer’s specifications, and required delivery timelines. These factors will likely require that the Company make further equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement, raise additional funds by other means, or pursue other strategic initiatives to support its operations beyond the middle of 2017. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to make further equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement or raise additional funds by other means on acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company were to make further equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement or to raise additional funds through other means by issuing securities, existing shareholders will be diluted. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, the Company may be required to alter or reduce the scope of its operations or to cease operations entirely. Uncertainty as to the outcome of these factors raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

5. Inventory

Inventory totaled $138 and $83 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and primarily consisted of raw alloy and finished goods inventory to satisfy future customer orders. Inventory is stated at the lower of weighted-average cost or market.

6. Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets totaled $142 and $408 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and primarily consisted of prepaid invoices and insurance premiums that will be recognized as expenses at a timing consistent with when the associated services are provided.

7. Patents and Trademarks, net

Net patents and trademarks totaled $543 and $570 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and primarily consisted of purchased patent rights and internally developed patents.

Purchased patent rights represent the exclusive right to commercialize the bulk amorphous alloy and other amorphous alloy technology acquired from California Institute of Technology (“Caltech”), through a license agreement with Caltech and other institutions. All fees and other amounts payable by the Company for these rights and licenses have been paid or accrued in full, and no further royalties, license fees or other amounts will be payable in the future under the license agreement.

In addition to the purchased and licensed patents, the Company has internally developed patents. Internally developed patents include legal and registration costs incurred to obtain the respective patents. The Company currently holds various patents and numerous pending patent applications in the United States, as well as numerous foreign counterparts to these patents outside of the United States.

The Company amortizes capitalized patents and trademarks over an average of 10 to 17 year periods. Amortization expense for patents and trademarks was $24 and $49 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to $25 and $50 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

8. Other Assets

Other assets totaled $36 and $31 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and consisted of deposits under long-term lease agreements.

9. Accrued Liabilities

Accrued liabilities totaled $775 and $947 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Included within these totals are the following:

	June 30, 2016		December 31, 2015

Accrued payroll, vacation, and bonuses	$	631	$	766
Accrued audit fees		52		109
Straight-line rent accruals		92		72
Total		775		947

10. Short-Term Debt

Short-term debt totaled $700 and $700 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, and consisted of borrowings under a line of credit facility, with a fixed interest rate of 2.1%. Interest expense related to outstanding borrowings was $4 and $8 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to $0 for the corresponding three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015.

This credit facility requires the Company to maintain collateral for the full amount of the facility. A failure to meet this requirement could trigger a prepayment of all outstanding borrowings.

Given the proximity to maturity, the carrying amount of short-term debt approximates fair value.

11. Warrant Liabilities

Pursuant to FASB ASC 815, the Company is required to report the value of certain warrants as a liability at fair value and record the changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities as a gain or loss in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss due to the price-based anti-dilution rights of the warrants.

During June 2012, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 15,000,000 shares of common stock to Visser under the Visser MTA Agreement (see Note 3). These warrants had an original exercise price of $0.22 per share, expire on June 1, 2017 and were originally valued at $4,260. These warrants have certain anti-dilution and exercise price reset provisions which qualify the warrants to be classified as a liability under FASB ASC 815. As a result of subsequent issuances of the Company’s common stock, which resulted in anti-dilutive price resets, the exercise price of these warrants was reduced to $0.16 and $0.17 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. In addition, the number of shares to be issued under the warrants as a result of the anti-dilution provision increased to 21,126,522 and 18,937,931 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016, these warrants were valued at $983 under the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following assumptions: (i) expected life of 0.92 years, (ii) volatility of 75%, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 0.5%, and (iv) dividend rate of 0. The change in fair value for these warrants was a loss of $347 and $949 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

On July 2, 2012, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 18,750,000 shares of common stock in a private placement (the “July 2012 Private Placement”). These warrants have an exercise price of $0.384 per share, expire on July 2, 2017, and were originally valued at $5,053. These warrants have certain anti-dilution and exercise price reset provisions which qualify the warrants to be classified as a liability under FASB ASC 815. As a result of executed draw-downs under the 2013 and 2014 Purchase Agreements, contractually defined price resets, and issuances under the 2016 Purchase Agreement, which resulted in an anti-dilution impact, the exercise price of these warrants was reduced to $0.17 and $0.19 as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 there were warrants to purchase a total of 17,572,000 shares of common stock outstanding, which were valued at $736 under the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following assumptions: (i) expected life of 1.0 years, (ii) volatility of 72%, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 0.5%, and (iv) dividend rate of 0. The change in fair value for these warrants was a loss of $237 and $711 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

On March 10, 2016, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 10,066,809 shares of common stock as part of the 2016 Purchase Agreement. These warrants have an exercise price of $0.07 per share, expire on March 10, 2026, and were originally valued at $760. These warrants have certain anti-dilution and exercise price reset provisions which qualify the warrants to be classified as a liability under FASB ASC 815. As of June 30, 2016, these warrants were valued at $1,548 under the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following assumptions: (i) expected life of 9.69 years, (ii) volatility of 119%, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 1.49%, and (iv) dividend rate of 0. The change in fair value for these warrants was a loss of $295 and $788 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

12. Option Liabilities

As part of the 2016 Purchase Agreement, executed on March 10, 2016, the Company granted the Investor the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in the future at predetermined prices. These options allow the investor to purchase 200,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.15 per share and 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share. Given that the number of shares to be issued upon exercise of these options was in excess of the number of shares authorized for issuance, these options were originally required to be classified as liabilities under FASB ASC 815. The 200 million share option and the 100 million share option were initially valued at $489 and $22, respectively. Following the filing of the Charter Amendment, which allowed for adequate authorized shares, these options were revalued as of May 19, 2016 and reclassified to permanent shareholders’ equity. As of May 19, 2016, these written call options were valued at $2,931 and $193, respectively, under the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following assumptions: (i) expected life of 0.25 years, (ii) volatility of 85%, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 0.31%, and (iv) dividend rate of 0. The change in fair value for these options was a gain of $1,876 and $549, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The change in fair value for these options was a loss of $2,442 and $171, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

The December 31, 2015 non-controlling interest was a deficit of $62.

16. Loss Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the periods. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings.

Overview

We are a materials technology company that develops and commercializes products made from amorphous alloys. Our Liquidmetal® family of alloys consists of a variety of proprietary bulk alloys and composites that utilize the advantages offered by amorphous alloy technology. We design, develop and sell custom products and components from bulk amorphous alloys to customers in various industries. We also partner with third-party manufacturers and licensees to develop and commercialize Liquidmetal alloy products.

Amorphous alloys are, in general, unique materials that are distinguished by their ability to retain a random atomic structure when they solidify, in contrast to the crystalline atomic structure that forms in other metals and alloys when they solidify. Liquidmetal alloys are proprietary amorphous alloys that possess a combination of performance, processing, and potential cost advantages that we believe will make them preferable to other materials in a variety of applications. The amorphous atomic structure of bulk alloys enables them to overcome certain performance limitations caused by inherent weaknesses in crystalline atomic structures, thus facilitating performance and processing characteristics superior in many ways to those of their crystalline counterparts. Our alloys and the injection molding technology we employ results in components that exhibit: exceptional dimensional control and repeatability that rivals precision machining, excellent corrosion resistance, brilliant surface finish, high strength, high hardness, high elastic limit, alloys that are non-magnetic, and the ability to form complex shapes common to the injection molding of plastics. Interestingly, all of these characteristics are achievable from the molding process, so design engineers do not have to select specific alloys to achieve one or more of the characteristics as is the case with crystalline materials. We believe these advantages could result in Liquidmetal alloys supplanting high-performance alloys, such as titanium and stainless steel, and other incumbent materials in a wide variety of applications. Moreover, we believe these advantages could enable the introduction of entirely new products and applications that are not possible or commercially viable with other materials.

Our revenues are derived from i) selling our bulk amorphous alloy custom products and components for applications, which include, but are not limited to, non-consumer electronic devices, medical products, automotive components, and sports and leisure goods; ii) selling tooling and prototype parts such as demonstration parts and test samples for customers with products in development; iii) product licensing and royalty revenue; and iv) research and development revenue. We expect that these sources of revenue will continue to significantly change the character of our revenue mix.

Our cost of sales consists primarily of the costs of manufacturing, which include raw alloy and internal labor required to operate our on-site production cell. Selling, general, and administrative expenses currently consist primarily of salaries and related benefits, travel, consulting and professional fees, depreciation and amortization, insurance, office and administrative expenses, and other expenses related to our operations.

Research and development expenses represent salaries, related benefits expenses, depreciation of research equipment, consulting and contract services, expenses incurred for the design and testing of new processing methods, expenses for the development of sample and prototype products, and other expenses related to the research and development of Liquidmetal bulk alloys. Costs associated with research and development activities are expensed as incurred. We plan to enhance our competitive position by improving our existing technologies and developing advances in amorphous alloy technologies. We believe that our research and development efforts will focus on the discovery of new alloy compositions, the development of improved processing technology, and the identification of new applications for our alloys.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to our consolidated financial statements since these policies require significant judgment or involve complex estimates that are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results:

•	Revenue recognition
•	Impairment of long-lived assets and definite-lived intangibles
•	Deferred tax assets
•	Valuation of liability classified warrants and options and embedded derivatives
•	Share based compensation

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (the “2015 Annual Report”) contains further discussions on our critical accounting policies and estimates.

In discussing our results of our operations, we have categorized the specific items of our consolidated statements of operations into various categories to facilitate the understanding of our core business operations. Explanations of each category as well as analyses of specific items contained in that category are discussed below:

Operating revenue and expenses

The “Operating revenue and expenses” category of statements of operations items represent those items that pertain to our core operations in the bulk alloy manufacturing and licensing business as follows:

Revenue. Total revenue decreased to $34 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $39 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Total revenue increased to $202 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $65 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase for the year-to-date period was attributable to a higher mix of small scale pre-production orders during 2016 as a result of our continued build out of our on-site manufacturing capabilities.

Cost of sales. Cost of sales was $13, or 130% of products revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, a decrease from $133, or 887% of products revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Cost of sales was $171, or 98% of products revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2016, an increase from $152, or 400% of products revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2015.The decrease in our cost of sales as a percentage of product revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to higher costs of production during the 2015 periods as a result of the initial on-set of manufacturing efforts and the scaling of internal processes. The cost to manufacture products and components from our bulk amorphous alloys is variable and differs based on the unique design of each product. Given the continued development and refinement of our manufacturing efforts during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, our cost of sales as a percentage of products revenue is not necessarily representative of our future cost percentages and is expected to show continued improvement over time with increases in volume and continuous refinements to our internal processes. When we begin increasing our products revenues with shipments of routine, commercial products and components through our manufacturing facility and/or third party contract manufacturers, we expect our cost of sales percentages to decrease, stabilize and be more predictable.

Gross profit. Our gross profit increased to $21 from $(94) for the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our gross profit, as a percentage of products revenue, increased to 210% from (627)% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our gross profit increased to $31 from $(87) for the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our gross profit, as a percentage of products revenue, increased to 18% from (229)% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As discussed above under “Cost of sales”, early pre-production orders are resulting in a higher cost mix, relative to revenue, than would otherwise be incurred in an on-site production environment, with higher volumes and more established operating processes, or through contract manufacturers. As such, our gross profit percentages have fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate based on volume and quoted production prices per unit and may not be representative of our future business. When we begin increasing our products revenues with shipments of routine, commercial products and components through future orders to our manufacturing facility and/or third party contract manufacturers, we expect our gross profit percentages to stabilize, increase and be more predictable.

Selling, marketing, general and administrative. Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses were $1,765 and $3,782 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, compared to $1,891 and $3,743 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The decrease in expense for the three month period is due to lower costs associated with employee compensation, inclusive of stock based compensation. This decrease is off-set against additional legal costs incurred with respect to the 2016 Purchase Agreement when evaluating the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Research and development. Research and development expenses increased to $623 and $1,182 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, from $455 and $937 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The increase in expense was mainly due to additional research projects and additional personnel hired to support our manufacturing and process development efforts. We continue to (i) perform research and development of new Liquidmetal alloys and related processing capabilities, (ii) develop new manufacturing techniques, and (iii) contract with consultants to advance the development of Liquidmetal alloys and related production processes.

Operating loss. Operating loss was $2,367 and $4,933 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to $2,440 and $4,767 for the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Fluctuations in our operating loss are primarily attributable to variations in operating expenses, as discussed above.

We continue to invest in our technology infrastructure to expedite the adoption of our technology, but we have experienced long sales lead times for customer adoption of our technology. Until that time where we can either (i) increase our revenues with shipments of routine, commercial products and components through a combination of our manufacturing center or third party contract manufacturers or (ii) obtain significant licensing revenues, we expect to continue to have operating losses for the foreseeable future.

Non-operational expenses

Our statement of operations contains various, significant items that are non-operational in nature. These categories of expenses may have significant gains and losses based on the volatility of our stock price as follows:

Change in value of warrant liabilities. The change in value of warrant liabilities was a non-cash loss of $879 and $2,448 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to a non-cash gain of $349 and $188 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. These adjustments result from periodic valuation adjustments related to fluctuations in our stock price, and other inputs, for warrants issued in connection with the Visser MTA, the July 2012 Private Placement, and the 2016 Purchase Agreement. Changes in the value of our warrants are non-cash and do not affect the core operations of our business or liquidity.

Change in value of option liabilities. The change in value of option liabilities was a non-cash gain (loss) of $2,426 and $(2,613) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to $0 for the corresponding three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015. These adjustments result from periodic valuation adjustments related to fluctuations in our stock price, and other inputs, for written call options issued in connection with the 2016 Purchase Agreement. Changes in the value of option liabilities are non-cash and do not affect the core operations of our business or liquidity. Following the reclassification of these options to a component of permanent equity, these will not result in earnings volatility in future periods.

Interest expense. Interest expense relates to interest incurred under our line of credit agreement. Such amounts were $4 and $8 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to $0 for the corresponding three and six periods ended June 30, 2015.

Interest income. Interest income relates to interest earned from our cash deposits for the respective periods. Such amounts were $0 and $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. This compares to $6 and $14 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash used in operating activities

Cash used in operating activities totaled $4.1 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The cash was primarily used to fund operating expenses related to our business and product development efforts.

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities totaled $1.0 million and $(2.2) million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Investing outflows primarily consist of capital expenditures to support our manufacturing efforts. Also included in investing cash flows are changes in restricted cash to support line of credit collateral requirements of which $1.0 million was recorded as an in-flow during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and $2 million was recorded as an outflow during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Cash provided by financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities totaled $8.4 million and $1.0 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities is comprised of cash received for the issuance of shares under the 2016 Purchase Agreement during 2016 and equity sales under the 2014 Purchase Agreement during 2015.

Financing arrangements and outlook

On March 10, 2016, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “2016 Purchase Agreement”) with Liquidmetal Technology Limited, a Hong Kong company (the “Investor”), providing for the purchase by the Investor of up to 405,000,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $63.4 million.

The 2016 Purchase Agreement provides that the Investor is obligated to purchase up to 405,000,000 shares of our common stock in multiple closings, with the Investor having purchased 105,000,000 shares at an aggregate purchase price of $8.4 million (or $0.08 per share) at the initial closing on March 10, 2016. The 2016 Purchase Agreement provides that the Investor will purchase the remaining 200,000,000 shares at $0.15 per share and 100,000,000 shares at $0.25 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $55.0 million no later than ninety days after the satisfaction of certain conditions, including shareholder approval of an amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation increasing our authorized number of shares of common stock from 700,000,000 to 1,100,000,000. On May 19, 2016, the Company’s shareholders approved the Charter Amendment, thereby obligating the Investor to purchase the remaining 300,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for the aggregate purchase price of $55.0 million by August 17, 2016.

We anticipate that our current capital resources, when considering expected losses from operations and excluding the potential additional $55.0 million investment by the Investor, will be sufficient to fund our operations through the middle of 2017. We have a relatively limited history of producing bulk amorphous alloy products and components on a mass-production scale. Furthermore, the ability of future contract manufacturers to produce our products or components in desired quantities and at commercially reasonable prices is uncertain and is dependent on a variety of factors that are outside of our control, including the nature and design of the product or component, the customer’s specifications, and required delivery timelines. These factors will likely require that we make further equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement, raise additional funds by other means, or pursue other strategic initiatives to support our operations beyond the middle of 2017. There is no assurance that we will be able to make further equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement or raise additional funds by other means on acceptable terms, if at all. If we were to make further equity sales under the 2016 Purchase Agreement or to raise additional funds through other means by issuing securities, existing shareholders will be diluted. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may be required to alter or reduce the scope of our operations or to cease operations entirely. Uncertainty as to the outcome of these factors raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2016, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our line of credit facility provides for a fixed interest rate of 2.1% per annum on all outstanding borrowings. A change in interest rates impacts the fair value of our outstanding debt under the line of credit facility but has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows. As of June 30, 2016, there was $700 in outstanding borrowings under this facility. Given the proximity to maturity, the carrying amount of short-term debt approximates fair value as of June 30, 2016.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2016. Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2016.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
