IPASS INC - 10-Q - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations(Edgar Glimpses Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (or "MD&A") is provided in addition to the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes, included elsewhere in this report, to assist readers in understanding our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with the MD&A in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. We announced on July 1, 2014, that we signed and closed the sale of our Unity Managed Network Services business unit ("Unity business") on June 30, 2014. Our second quarter 2014 results of operations and all prior comparative periods are recasted to reflect the Unity business as a discontinued operation, and our MD&A will focus primarily on our continuing operations starting with this quarter. This MD&A is organized as follows: Overview Discussion of our business Significant Trends and Events Operating, financial and other material trends and events that affect our company and may reflect our performance Key Operating Metrics Discussion of key metrics and measures that we use to evaluate our operating performance Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting policies and estimates that we believe Estimates are most important to understanding the assumptions and judgments incorporated in our reported financial results Results of Operations An analysis of our financial results comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, and June 30, 2013 Liquidity and Capital Resources An analysis of changes in our balance sheet and cash flows, and discussion of our financial condition and potential sources of liquidity The various sections of this MD&A contain forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future results that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industries in which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management.

Overview With the world's largest commercial Wi-Fi network, iPass delivers mobility services for easy connectivity and roaming cost control. iPass is a global Wi-Fi roaming leader for enterprises and telecom service providers and their consumer subscribers. We believe that we are uniquely positioned to take advantage of expanding global demand for Wi-Fi. iPass was 13-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents incorporated in California in July 1996 and reincorporated in Delaware in June 2000. Our corporate headquarters are located in Redwood Shores, California. We are publicly traded on NASDAQ under symbol IPAS. We provide global enterprises and telecommunications carriers with cloud-based mobility management and Wi-Fi connectivity services. Through our proprietary technology platform and global Wi-Fi network, we offer enterprises internet connectivity services and significant cost savings. Based on this same technology platform and our global authentication and settlements infrastructure, we also offer global telecommunications carriers Wi-Fi enablement services allowing them to monetize their Wi-Fi networks and enable data roaming solutions for their subscribers. Strategic Mobility Assets We believe iPass has a unique set of mobility assets that provides us with competitive advantages. We see our three core assets as follows: Open Mobile Platform: Our Open Mobile (OM) platform is a cloud-based mobility management platform that securely manages network connectivity and subscribers across a wide variety of computing and mobile devices and provider networks. We believe this scalable subscriber management, billing and reporting platform is unique in the industry and would be time consuming and expensive to replicate. Integrated Authentication Fabric: We have a global authentication fabric of integrated servers and software that is interconnected with 158 unique global Wi-Fi networks. This infrastructure allows us to provide secure, highly-available and seamless four party global authentication, clearing and settlement of Wi-Fi users for our partners and customers. Global Wi-Fi Footprint: We have a Wi-Fi network footprint and supply chain that consists of more than 13 million hotspots in 120 countries and territories, including major airports, convention centers, airplanes, trains, train stations, hotels, restaurants, retail, and small business locations. Starting in the second quarter of 2014, we are now including both commercial grade venues and public access and community locations that are accessible in the iPass netwoek. Our technology integration across multiple global network providers forms the basis of our network services and we believe creates a unique cost advantage for our customers. We typically contract with network service providers, integrate their networks into our global infrastructure, and monitor their performance to ensure that our customers have a consistent and reliable end user experience. Business Portfolio and Our Strategy (Continuing Operations) Mobility Services (Collectively referred to as Open Mobile or "OM"): We provide iPass Open Mobile Enterprise Services ("iPass OME" or "OME") to large enterprises to deliver enhanced network mobility services, addressing large enterprises' needs to manage their mobility economics, high speed network connectivity requirements and proliferation of mobile devices, including the "bring-your-own-device" trend. Our growth strategy for OME consists of focusing on increased penetration in existing customers, new customer acquisition via increased brand awareness, and continued optimization of the end user experience on our OM platform. We also provide our iPass Open Mobile Exchange services ("iPass OMX" or "OMX") to global telecommunications carriers and service providers to extend and enhance their core mobility and internet offerings by integrating our Open Mobile Platform technology and our worldwide Wi-Fi Network with their offerings, to allow them to seamlessly connect their customers and subscribers to preferred global Wi-Fi networks. We continue to focus on adding new channels as customers to further grow our OMX services. For a detailed discussion regarding our mobility business, including our strategy and our service offerings, see "Item 1. Business" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Significant Trends and Events The following describes significant trends and events of our business during the second quarter of 2014: Continued Focus on our Open Mobile Business We continued to show solid progress against two key metrics for our OM business: (i) the number of active Open Mobile Platform users; and (ii) the number of Open Mobile Wi-Fi Network users. We grew our Open Mobile Platform users from 517,000 for the second quarter of 2013 and 681,000 for the first quarter of 2014 to 753,000 for the second quarter of 2014. In addition, we grew our Open Mobile Wi-Fi Network users from 56,000 for the second quarter of 2013 and 71,000 for 14-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents the first quarter of 2014 to 80,000 for the second quarter of 2014. Our Open Mobile growth has been driven by a combination of legacy platform customer migrations, migrated customer user and usage ramps, and new customer acquisition. We are focused on growing Open Mobile revenues based on our ability to grow Open Mobile platform and Wi-Fi network users, especially through the continued deployment of our Open Mobile platform on smartphone and tablet devices. See "Key Operating Metrics" below for a full discussion of our user metrics. Continued Decline in our Legacy Revenues We define our legacy revenue to include Dial-up and 3G network, our iPC platform, and related platform services, as well as iPC driven network usage, including iPC user driven Wi-Fi and minimum commit shortfall. Legacy revenue declined from $18.8 million for the six months ending June 30, 2013, to $7.5 million for the six months ending June 30, 2014, a decline of 60%. We expect our legacy revenue to represent a declining percentage of our total Mobility revenue during the remainder of 2014 as customers migrate or terminate legacy service contracts. Sale of Unity Managed Network Servicing Business We announced on July 1, 2014, that we signed and closed the sale of the Unity business on June 30, 2014. Our second quarter 2014 results of operations and all prior comparative periods are recast to reflect the Unity business as a discontinued operation. Key Operating Metrics Described below are key metrics that we use to evaluate our operating performance and our success in transforming our business and driving future growth. OM Wi-Fi Network Users OM Wi-Fi Network Users is the number of our OM platform users each month in a given quarter that paid for Wi-Fi network services from iPass. OM Platform Active Users OM Platform Active Users is the number of users who were billed Open Mobile platform fees and who have used or deployed Open Mobile. The following table summarizes the number of active users of iPass OME services (in thousands). Each metric below is calculated as the average number of active users per month, during a given quarter, for which a fee was billed by iPass for either Wi-Fi or Platform services: For the Quarter Ended June 30, March 31, December 31, September 30, June 30, 2014 2014 2013 2013 2013 Wi-Fi Network Users 80 71 67 59 56 Active Platform Users: 753 681 622 574 517 15-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management as a measure of operating efficiency, financial performance and as a benchmark against our peers and competitors. In addition, we also use this metric as a factor in our incentive compensation payouts. Management also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to understand our performance excluding the impact of items which may obscure trends in our core operating performance. Furthermore, the use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates comparisons with other companies in our industry which may use similar financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted for interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges, net income from discontinued operations and certain state sales and federal tax charges. We adjust for these excluded items because we believe that, in general, these items possess one or more of the following characteristics: their magnitude and timing is largely outside of our control; they are unrelated to the ongoing operation of the business in the ordinary course; they are unusual or infrequent and we do not expect them to occur in the ordinary course of business; or non-cash expenses involving stock option grants and restricted stock issuances. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net loss: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (In thousands) Adjusted EBITDA $ (3,446 ) $ (1,273 ) $ (8,240 ) $ (3,580 ) Interest income (expense) (33 ) 3 (66 ) 7 Income tax benefit 4,004 417 4,183 683 Depreciation of property and equipment (838 ) (533 ) (1,551 ) (1,058 ) Stock-based compensation (386 ) (800 ) (957 ) (1,519 ) Restructuring charges and related adjustments (16 ) (26 ) (30 ) (626 ) Certain state sales and federal tax items - - - 10 Net income from discontinued operations 21,592 626 21,989 1,122 GAAP Net income (loss) $ 20,877 $ (1,586 ) $ 15,328 $ (4,961 ) In the table above, Adjusted EBITDA for prior periods has been recast to exclude net income from discontinued operations and related changes to adjustment items such as tax, depreciation and stock based compensation. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on our historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and our belief of what could occur in the future considering available information, including assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, these estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported based on these policies. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. ASU 2014-08 changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations under current U.S. GAAP (Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 205-20 Discontinued 16-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Operations, "ASC 205-20") and provides a new definition of discontinued operations. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. We have not adopted ASU 2014-08 in the current fiscal quarter. We do not expect that this guidance will materially impact our consolidated financial statements. On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting. Results of Operations Sources of Revenues On June 30, 2014, we entered into an agreement and completed the sale of our Unity business. Accordingly, we currently have a single reportable operating segment, Mobility Services, and analyze revenue from continuing operations. Within Mobility Services, we differentiate and analyze our Open Mobile and legacy generated revenues separately. Open Mobile generated revenues consist of: • Network-Wi-Fi and minimum customer commitments based on the number of network users sourced from the Open Mobile platform. • Platform-Fees based on the number of Active Open Mobile monetized platform users and other fees specific to providing additional value add services to Open Mobile customers. • Open Mobile Exchange-Revenues generated from our OMX customers. Legacy generated revenues consist of Dial-up and 3G network, our iPC platform, and related platform services, as well as iPC driven network usage, including iPC user driven Wi-Fi and minimum commit shortfall. Six Months Ended Three Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (In thousands) Mobility Services $ 17,762 $ 20,288 $ 35,399 $ 41,197 Open Mobile 14,382 11,940 27,921 22,403 Open Mobile Enterprise 13,754 11,309 26,514 21,421 Network 9,645 7,381 18,368 13,534 Platform 4,109 3,928 8,146 7,887 Open Mobile Exchange 628 631 1,407 982 Legacy iPC 3,380 8,348 7,478 18,794 Mobility Services Revenue For the three months ended June 30, 2014, Mobility Service revenue decreased $2.5 million or 12% compared to the same period in 2013 as the decrease in legacy iPC revenue of $4.9 million outpaced the increase in Open Mobile ("OM") revenue of $2.4 million. Legacy iPC declines were attributed to customer terminations, anticipated usage reductions in our 3G and Dial-up services, and continued migrations to OM. Growth in OM was attributable to migration of Legacy iPC customers and organic growth of OM network and active platform users. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, Mobility Services revenue decreased $5.8 million or 14% compared to the same period in 2013 as the decrease in legacy iPC revenue of $11.3 million outpaced the increase in Open Mobile ("OM") revenue of $5.5 million. Legacy iPC declines were attributed to customer terminations, anticipated usage reductions in our 3G 17-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents and Dial-up services, and continued migrations to OM. Growth in OM was attributable to migration of Legacy iPC customers and organic growth of OM network and active platform users. Network Gross Margin We use network gross margin as a metric to assist us in assessing the profitability of our various network services. Our overall network gross margin is defined as Mobility Services Network revenue less network access costs divided by Mobility Services Network revenue. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 Network Gross Margin (%) 40.0 % 46.4 % 41.0 % 47.1 % For the three and six months ending June 30, 2014, compared to the same periods in 2013, network gross margin decreased by 6.4 and 6.1 percentage points, primarily due to decreases in high margin revenue streams such as monthly minimum commitment revenue and Dial-up, and higher usage by customers on flat rate price plans. In addition, the proliferation of smartphone and tablet users has created expected downward pressure on margins. Operating Expenses Network Access Costs (NAC) NAC consist of charges for network access which we pay to our network service providers and other direct cost of sales. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (Dollars in thousands) Network access costs $ 7,671 7,445 $ 14,878 $ 14,850As a percentage of total revenue 43.2 % 36.7 % 42.0 % 36.0 % For the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, network access costs increased approximately $0.3 million or 3% primarily due to the increase of OME network access costs of $0.5 million driven by the growth in Wi-Fi usage, partially offset by the decrease of 3G and OMX network access costs of $0.2 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, network access costs remained fairly consistent. Network Operations Network operations expenses consist of compensation and benefits for our network engineering, customer support and network access quality personnel, outside consultants, transaction center fees, network equipment depreciation, and allocated overhead costs. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (Dollars in thousands)Network operations expense $ 3,336 $ 3,075 $ 7,053 $ 6,117 As a percentage of total revenue 18.8 % 15.2 % 19.9 % 14.8 % Network operations expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increased by approximately $0.3 million or 9% compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due an increase in depreciation expense of $0.3 million as we have invested to refresh our technology infrastructure. 18-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Network operations expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increased by approximately $0.9 million or 15% compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to an increase in depreciation and facility related expense of $0.9 million as we have invested to refresh our technology infrastructure. Research and Development Research and development expenses consist of compensation and benefits for our research and development personnel, consulting, and allocated overhead costs. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (Dollars in thousands)Research and development expenses $ 2,877 $ 3,414 $ 6,261 $ 7,028 As a percentage of total revenue 16.2 % 16.8 % 17.7 % 17.1 % For the three months ended June 30, 2014, research and development expense decreased by approximately $0.5 million or 16% compared to the same period in 2013, mainly due to the decrease in headcount and consulting expenses of $0.5 million as our OM platform has reached increasing product maturity. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, research and development expense decreased by approximately $0.8 million or 11% compared to the same period in 2013, mainly due to the decrease in headcount expense of $0.6 million as our OM platform has reached increasing product maturity, and a decrease in consulting and travel related expenses of $0.2 million. Sales and Marketing Sales and marketing expenses consist of compensation, benefits, advertising and promotion costs, and allocated overhead costs. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 31, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (Dollars in thousands)Sales and marketing expenses $ 4,212 $ 3,848 $ 8,777 $ 8,241 As a percentage of total revenue 23.7 % 19.0 % 24.8 % 20.0 % Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2014, increased by approximately $0.4 million or 9% compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to higher headcount related costs of $0.3 million, including severance related expense of $0.1 million that occurred in the second quarter of 2014, and increased focus on marketing efforts, resulting in an increase in marketing program expenses of $0.1 million. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014, increased by approximately $0.5 million or 7% compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to higher headcount related costs of $0.4 million, including severance related expense of $0.1 million that occurred in the first half of 2014, and an increase in marketing program expenses of $0.1 million. General and Administrative General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits for general and administrative personnel, legal and accounting expenses. Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 (Dollars in thousands) General and administrative expenses $ 4,230 $ 4,998 $ 9,001 $ 10,921 As a percent of total revenue 23.8 % 24.6 % 25.4 % 26.5 % 19-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2014, decreased by approximately $0.8 million or 15% compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to a decrease in headcount-related and consulting costs of $0.6 million associated with ongoing cost management initiatives, and a lower consulting expense mainly due to spend in 2013 related to post go-live support for our new ERP system. In addition, bad debt expense decreased by $0.1 million and facilities related expenses decreased by $0.1 million. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014, decreased by approximately $1.9 million or 18% compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to a decrease in headcount and facilities related cost of $1.4 million associated with ongoing cost management initiatives, and a lower consulting expense of $0.5 million mainly due to spend in 2013 related to post go-live support for our new ERP system. Other Income and Expenses Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses Foreign exchange gains and losses primarily include realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations impact the re-measurement of certain assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar and generate unrealized foreign exchange gains or losses. In addition, some of our network access costs are invoiced in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The transactional settlement of these outstanding invoices and other cross-currency transactions generate realized foreign exchange gains or losses depending on the fluctuation of exchange rates between the date of invoicing and the date of payment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we did not enter into any hedging contracts. Foreign exchange losses for each of the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, were approximately $0.1 and $0.2 million, respectively. Provision for Income Taxes Income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, was approximately $4.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, was approximately $4.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The income tax benefit recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, primarily related to the utilization of tax losses from continuing operations against discontinued operations gains pursuant to the intraperiod allocation rules of ASC 740 Income Taxes, which requires that income tax expense (benefit) be allocated to continuing and discontinued operations for each year for which those items are presented. Divestiture of Business Segment We announced on July 1, 2014, that we had completed the sale of our Unity business for $28.2 million to Tolt Solutions subject to final working capital adjustments, estimated to reduce the purchase price by approximately $0.1 million, and accrued approximately $2.2 million of transaction costs to be paid in the third quarter of 2014. Of the purchase price, $1.4 million was placed in an escrow account until June 30, 2015, to satisfy any claims for the indemnification obligations of iPass for breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and certain other specified matters. The sale resulted in a before tax gain of $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2014. The purchase agreement was signed and the sale was completed on June 30, 2014. Unity focused on delivering high speed Wi-Fi and WAN managed network solutions to customers in a variety of industries, including retail, financial services, and healthcare. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance for the disposal of long-lived assets, the results of the Unity business are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations and from segment results for all periods presented. The following table presents the revenues and components of discontinued operations, net of tax. 20-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2014 2013 2014 2013 Revenue 7,755 8,377 15,458 17,097 Income from discontinued operations before income taxes 809 1,002 1,506 1,791 Gain on sale of discontinued operations before income taxes 25,014 - 25,014 - Provision for income taxes (4,231 ) (376 ) (4,531 ) (669 ) Income from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 21,592 $ 626 $ 21,989 $ 1,122 The above table excludes certain shared overhead costs and transfer pricing adjustments that were previously allocated to the Unity business segment in the historical iPass consolidated financial statements that were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The provisions for income taxes primarily reflect tax expense on discontinued operations including the gain on sale, which is mostly offset by the benefit in continuing operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources We had cash and cash equivalents of $41.7 million at June 30, 2014, compared to $24.0 million at December 31, 2013. Six months ended June 30, 2014 2013 (In thousands) Cash Flows Net cash used in operating activities $ (8,197 ) $ (1,472 ) Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities 25,964 (1,246 ) Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities (114 ) 912 Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents $ 17,653 $ (1,806 ) Operating Activities Net cash used in operating activities was $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1.5 million for the same period in 2013, mainly due to an increase in net loss after adjusting for the gain on sale of discontinued operations, and changes in working capital. Investing Activities Net cash provided by investing activities was $26.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $1.2 million for the same period in 2013, mainly due to cash proceeds from the sale of discontinued operations of $26.8 million, offset by the acquisition of property and equipment. Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $0.9 million for the same period in 2013, due to a decrease in the proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $0.8 million and approximately $0.3 million of principal payments for vendor financed property and equipment during the first half of 2014. Sources of Cash and Future Cash Requirements We have historically relied on existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flow from operations for our liquidity needs. We use a professional investment management firm to manage a large portion of our cash which is invested primarily in money market accounts. We believe that based on our current business plan and revenue prospects and our anticipated cash 21-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents flows from operations, our existing cash balances will be sufficient to meet our working capital and operating resource expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. The amount of cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, was $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. We currently do not intend to distribute any of our cumulative earnings by our foreign subsidiaries to the parent company in the U.S. Primary Uses of Cash Our principal use of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2014, was for network access costs, payroll related expenses and general operating expenses including marketing, office rent, and capital expenditures.
