SURGE COMPONENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE A – ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY'S BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Surge Components, Inc. (“Surge”) was incorporated in the State of New York and commenced operations on November 24, 1981 as an importer of electronic products, primarily capacitors and discrete semi-conductors selling to customers located principally throughout North America. On June 24, 1988, Surge formed Challenge/Surge Inc. (“Challenge”), a wholly-owned subsidiary to engage in the sale of electronic component products and sounding devices from established brand manufacturers to customers located principally throughout North America.

In May 2002, Surge and an officer of Surge founded and became sole owners of Surge Components, Limited (“Surge Limited”), a Hong Kong corporation. Under current Hong Kong law, Surge Limited is required to have at least two shareholders. Surge owns 999 shares of the outstanding common stock and the officer of Surge owns 1 share of the outstanding common stock. The officer of Surge has assigned his rights regarding his 1 share to Surge. Surge Limited started doing business in July 2002. Surge Limited operations have been consolidated with the Company. Surge Limited is responsible for the sale of Surge’s products to customers located in Asia.

On August 31, 2010, the Company changed its corporate domicile by merging into a newly-formed corporation, Surge Components, Inc. (Nevada), which was formed in the State of Nevada for that purpose. Surge Components Inc. is the surviving entity. The number of common stock shares authorized for issuance was increased to 75,000,000 shares.

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(1) Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Surge, Challenge, and Surge Limited (collectively the “Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit, in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q for interim financial reporting pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The results and trends in these interim consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 may not be representative of those for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

(2) Accounts Receivable:

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the net invoice value and are not interest bearing. The Company considers receivables past due based on the payment terms. The Company reviews its exposure to accounts receivable and reserves specific amounts if collectability is no longer reasonably assured. The Company also reserves a percentage of its trade receivable balance based on collection history and current economic trends that might impact the level of future credit losses. The Company re-evaluates such reserves on a regular basis and adjusts its reserves as needed. Based on the Company’s operating history and customer base, bad debts to date have not been material.

(3) Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is recognized for products sold by the Company when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer. This occurs when product is shipped from the Company's warehouse.

For direct shipments, revenue is recognized when product is shipped from the Company’s supplier. The Company has a long term supply agreement with one of its suppliers. The Company purchases the merchandise from the supplier and has the supplier directly ship the merchandise to the customer through a freight forwarder. Title passes to the customer upon the merchandise being received by a freight forwarder. Direct shipments were approximately $2,885,000 and $3,202,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 respectively.

The Company also acts as a sales agent to certain customers in North America for one of its suppliers. The Company reports these commissions as revenues in the period earned. Commission revenue totaled $301,396 and $216,181 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 respectively.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains reserves for potential credit losses.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(3) Revenue Recognition (continued):

The Company and its subsidiaries currently have agreements with several distributors. There are no provisions for the granting of price concessions in any of the agreements. Revenues under these distribution agreements were approximately $6,434,000 and $5,761,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 respectively.

(4) Inventories:

Inventories, which consist solely of products held for resale, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Products are included in inventory when the Company obtains title and risk of loss on the products, primarily when shipped from the supplier. Inventory in transit principally from foreign suppliers at August 31, 2016 approximated $1,639,000. The Company, at August 31, 2016, has a reserve against slow moving and obsolete inventory of $374,000. From time to time the Company’s products are subject to legislation from various authorities on environmental matters.

(5) Depreciation and Amortization:

Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Depreciation is generally calculated on a straight line method and amortization of leasehold improvements is provided for on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various assets as follows:

Furniture, fixtures and equipment		5 - 7 years
Computer equipment		5 years
Leasehold Improvements		Estimated useful life or lease term, whichever is shorter

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(6) Concentration of Credit Risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company maintains substantially all of its cash balances in a limited number of financial institutions. At August 31, 2016 and November 30, 2015, the Company's uninsured cash balances totaled approximately $3,778,918 and $3,989,000, respectively.

(7) Income Taxes:

The Company's deferred income taxes arise primarily from the differences in the recording of net operating losses, allowances for bad debts, inventory reserves and depreciation expense for financial reporting and income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided when it has been determined to be more likely than not that the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets will not be realized. See Note G.

The Company follows the provisions of the Accounting Standards Codification topic, ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (ASC 740). There have been no unrecognized tax benefits and, accordingly, there has been no effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations as a result of ASC 740.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years before fiscal years ending November 30, 2012, and state tax examinations for years before fiscal years ending November 30, 2011. Management does not believe there will be any material changes in our unrecognized tax positions over the next twelve months.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income expense. As of the date of adoption of ASC 740, there was no accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized benefits, nor was any interest expense recognized during the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015.

SURGE COMPONENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(8) Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(9) 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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(10) Marketing and promotional costs:

Marketing and promotional costs are expensed as incurred and have not been material to date. The Company has contractual arrangements with several of its distributors which provide for cooperative advertising rights to the distributor as a percentage of sales. Cooperative advertising is reflected as a reduction in revenues and has not been material to date.

(11) Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The carrying amount of cash balances, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value based on the nature of those items. Estimated fair values of financial instruments are determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop the estimates of fair value, and accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange.

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(12) Shipping Costs

The Company classifies shipping costs as a component of selling expenses. Shipping costs totaled $4,991 and $6,791 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 respectively.

(13) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The difference between reported basic and diluted weighted-average common shares results from the assumption that all dilutive stock options and convertible preferred stock exercised into common stock. The number of potentially dilutive shares excluded from diluted weighted shares outstanding at August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 totaled 518,991 and 517,096, respectively.

(14) Stock Based Compensation

Stock Based Compensation to Employees

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation for employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees over the related vesting period.

Stock Based Compensation to Other than Employees

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 718. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably determinable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

The plan allows total employee contributions of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the eligible employee’s salary through salary reduction. The Company makes a matching contribution of twenty percent (20%) of each employee’s contribution for each dollar of employee deferral up to five percent (5%) of the employee’s salary. Net assets for the plan, as estimated by Union Central, Inc., which maintains the plan’s records, were approximately $1,092,000 at November 30, 2015.

In February 1996, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to authorize the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. In August 2010, the number of preferred shares authorized for issuance was increased to 5,000,000 shares.

In January 2000, the Company authorized 260,000 shares of preferred stock as Non-Voting Redeemable Convertible Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”). As of August 31, 2016, none of the Series A preferred stock was outstanding.

In November 2000, the Company authorized 200,000 shares of preferred stock as Voting Redeemable Convertible Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred”). As of August 31, 2016, none of the Series B Preferred Stock was outstanding.

In November 2000, the Company authorized 100,000 shares of preferred stock as Non-Voting Redeemable Convertible Series C Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”). Each share of Series C Preferred is automatically convertible into 10 shares of our common stock upon shareholder approval. If the Series C Preferred were converted into common stock on or before April 15, 2001, these shares were entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of $.50 per share per annum commencing April 15, 2001 payable on June 30 and December 31 of each year. In November 2000, 70,000 shares of the Series C Preferred were issued in payment of financial consulting services to its investment banker and a shareholder of the Company. In April 2001, 8,000 shares of the Series C Preferred were repurchased and cancelled.

In April 2002, in connection with a Mutual Release, Settlement, Standstill and Non-Disparagement Agreement among other provisions, certain investors transferred back to the Company 252,000 shares of common stock, 19,300 shares of Series C preferred stock, and certain warrants, in exchange for $225,000. These repurchased shares were cancelled.

In February 2006, the Company settled with a shareholder to repurchase 10,000 shares of Series C Preferred plus accrued dividends for $50,000.

Pursuant to exchange agreements dated as of March 14, 2011, 9,000 shares of Series C Preferred were returned to the Company for cancellation in exchange for 112,500 shares of common stock.

In October 2014, 2,000 shares of Series C Preferred were converted into 20,000 shares of common stock.

In April 2015, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a shareholder pursuant to which 7,500 shares of Series C Preferred were returned to the Company for cancellation in exchange for 110,000 shares of common stock plus $65,000 for accrued dividends and legal fees and expenses.

In July 2015, 4,200 shares of Series C Preferred were exchanged for 42,000 shares of common stock and $29,838 in accrued dividends.

Dividends aggregating $129,069 have not been paid for the semi-annual periods ended December 31, 2001 through the semi-annual payment due June 30, 2016. The Company has accrued these dividends. At August 31, 2016, there are 10,000 shares of Series C Preferred issued and outstanding.

Stock Compensation

In March 2015, the Company awarded one employee director 48,530 shares of its common stock and another employee director 29,780 shares of its common stock as part of their 2014 bonus. The Company recorded a cost of $57,166 relating to the issuance of these shares. In February 2015, one non-employee director exercised an option to acquire 25,000 shares of common stock for $0.25 per share. In April 2015, two employee directors each exercised options to acquire 250,000 shares for $0.25 per share. Also in April 2015, two non-employee directors each exercised options to acquire 25,000 shares of common stock for $0.25 per share.

In July 2015, the Company granted stock options to (a) three non-employee directors to each purchase 25,000 shares of common stock, and (b) one non-employee-director to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $.87 per share, the market price of the common stock on the date of the grant. These options vest immediately and expire five years from the grant date. The Company recorded a cost of $19,913 related to the granting of these options. The fair value of these stock options are estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: expected volatility of 17% (based on the Company’s historical stock volatility); average risk-free interest rate of 1.55% (the five year treasury note rate on the date of the grant); initial expected life of 5 years (based on the term of the options) and no expected dividend yield.

In April 2016, the Company awarded one employee director 67,901 shares of its common stock and another employee director 31,250 shares of its common stock from the 2015 Incentive Stock Plan as part of their 2015 bonus. The Company recorded a cost of $74,363 relating to the issuance of these shares.

The intrinsic value of the exercisable options at August 31, 2016 totaled $13,000. At August 31, 2016, the weighted average remaining life of the stock options is 1.99 years. At August 31, 2016, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to the stock options granted under the Company’s incentive plans.

NOTE G – INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.

The Company’s deferred income taxes are comprised of the following:

	August 31,			November 30,
	2016			2015
Deferred Tax Assets:
Net operating loss	$	4,110,035		$	4,095,388
Allowance for bad debts		46,781			39,296
Inventory		62,409			100,017
Deferred Rent		16,332			16,756
Depreciation		154,126			156,272
Total deferred tax assets		4,389,683			4,407,729
Valuation allowance		(3,462,257	)		(3,409,599	)

Total	$	927,426		$	998,130

The valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets relates principally to the uncertainty of the utilization of deferred tax assets and was calculated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which requires that a valuation allowance be established or maintained when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowance increased by approximately $53,000 during the nine months ended August 31, 2016. This valuation is based on management estimates of future taxable income. Although the degree of variability inherent in the estimates of future taxable income is significant and subject to change in the near term, management believes, that the estimate is adequate. The estimated valuation allowance is continually reviewed and as adjustments to the allowance become necessary, such adjustments are reflected in the current operations.

NOTE H – RENTAL COMMITMENTS

The Company leases its office and warehouse space through 2020 from a corporation that is controlled by officers/shareholders of the Company (“Related Company”). Annual minimum rental payments to the Related Company approximated $169,000 for the year ended November 30, 2015, and increase at the rate of three per cent per annum throughout the lease term.

Pursuant to the lease, rent expense charged to operations differs from rent paid because of scheduled rent increases. Accordingly, the Company has recorded deferred rent. Rent expense is calculated by allocating to rental payments, including those attributable to scheduled rent increases, on a straight line basis, over the lease term.

In June 2015, the Company renewed its lease to rent office space and a warehouse in Hong Kong for two years. Annual minimum rental payments for this space are approximately $58,500.

The Company’s future minimum rental commitments at August 31, 2016 are as follows:

Twelve Months Ended August 31,
2017	$	237,124
2018	$	182,236
2019	$	185,880
2020	$	15,515

	$	620,755

Net rental expense for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015 were $233,504 and $228,688, respectively, of which $189,522 and $186,992, respectively, were paid to the Related Company.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained herein, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terms such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "could," "intends," "target," "projects," "contemplates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other similar words. These statements are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We discuss many of the risks in greater detail under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Also, these forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of the filing of this report. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements for events or circumstances occurring after the date of the filing of this report.

Overview

The Company operates with two sales groups, Surge Components (“Surge”) and Challenge Electronics (“Challenge”). Surge is a supplier of electronic products and components. These products include capacitors, which are electrical energy storage devices, and discrete semiconductor components, such as rectifiers, transistors and diodes, which are single function low power semiconductor products that are packaged alone as compared to integrated circuits such as microprocessors. The products sold by Surge are typically utilized in the electronic circuitry of diverse products, including, but not limited to, automobiles, audio products, temperature control products, lighting products, energy related products, computer related products, various types of consumer products, garage door openers, household appliances, power supplies and security equipment. These products are sold to both original equipment manufacturers, commonly referred to as OEMs, who incorporate them into their products, and to distributors of the lines of products we sell, who resell these products within their customer base. These products are manufactured predominantly in Asia by approximately sixteen independent manufacturers. We act as the master distribution agent utilizing independent sales representative organizations in North America to sell and market the products for one such manufacturer pursuant to a written agreement. When we act as a sales agent, our supplier who sold the product to the customer that we introduced to our supplier pays us a commission. The amount of the commission is determined on a sale by sale basis depending on the profit margin of the product. Commission revenue totaled $301,396 and $216,181 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and August 31, 2015, respectively.

Challenge is engaged in the sale of electronic components. In 1999, Challenge began as a division to sell audible components. We have been able to increase the types of products that we sell because some of our suppliers introduced new products, and we also located other products from new suppliers. Our core products include buzzers, speakers, microphones, resonators, alarms, chimes, filters, and discriminators. We now also work with our suppliers to have our suppliers customize many of the products we sell for many customers through the customers’ own designs and those that we work with our suppliers to have our suppliers redesign for them at our suppliers’ factories. We have a design engineer on our staff with more than thirty years of experience with these types of products, who works with our suppliers on such redesigns. We are continually looking to expand the line of products that we sell. In 2015, we hired a junior engineer to assist with the introduction of a new micro controller product line. We sell these products through independent representatives that earn a commission on the products we sell. We are also working with local, regional, and national distributors to sell these products to local accounts in every state.

The Company has a Hong Kong office to effectively handle the transfer business from United States customers purchasing and manufacturing in Asia after designing the products in the United States. This office has strengthened the Company’s global capabilities and services to its customer base.

The electronic components industry has changed from one of strong demand to one of reduced demand. This reduced demand can be attributed to a slowdown in global growth as well as a slowdown in the forecast of retail sales in North America. Management expects 2016 to continue with the reduced demand for components that the Company experienced in 2015. Due to this worldwide reduction in demand, the Company may be impacted by the effects of potentially reduced demand for its products throughout 2016.

In order to help increase sales, the Company hired 2 new salespersons and one new engineering employee during the nine months ended August 31, 2016, which increased our salaries and related costs by approximately $258,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016. While the Company incurred operational expenses for these employees during the nine months ended August 31, 2016, the Company expects an increase in sales resulting from these new employees beginning in the second quarter of Fiscal 2017.

In order for us to grow, we will depend on, among other things, the continued growth of the electronics and semiconductor industries, our ability to withstand intense price competition, our ability to obtain new customers, our ability to retain and attract sales and other personnel in order to expand our marketing capabilities, our ability to secure adequate sources of products, which are in demand on commercially reasonable terms, our success in managing growth, including monitoring an expanded level of operations and controlling costs.

Critical Accounting Policies

Accounts Receivable

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and an assessment of international, political and economic risk as well as the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a change in actual defaults from the Company’s historical experience, the Company’s estimates of recoverability of amounts due could be affected and the Company would adjust the allowance accordingly.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer. This occurs when product is shipped from the Company's warehouse. For direct shipments from our suppliers to our customer, revenue is recognized when product is shipped from the Company’s supplier. The Company acts as a sales agent for certain customers buying direct from one of its suppliers. The Company reports these commissions as revenues in the period earned.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains reserves for potential credit losses.

Inventory Valuation

Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or market. Write-downs of inventories to market value are based on stock rotation, historical sales requirements and obsolescence as well as in the changes in the backlog. Reserves required for obsolescence were not material in any of the periods in the financial statements presented. If market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional write-downs of inventories could be required. For example, each additional 1% of obsolete inventory would reduce operating income by approximately $33,000.

Because of the experience of the Company’s management, including Ira Levy and Steven Lubman, the Company believes that it knows the best prices to buy the products it sells and as a result the Company generally waives rights to manufacturers' inventory protection agreements (including price protection and inventory return rights), and thereby bears the risk of increases in the prices charged by manufacturers and decreases in the prices of products held in the Company’s inventory or covered by purchase commitments. If prices of components which the Company holds in inventory decline, or if new technology is developed that displaces products that the Company sells, the business could be materially adversely affected. These changes can potentially increase due to general economic conditions and customer-specific business conditions. If the Company’s customers experience these changes, the business could be adversely affected.

Income Taxes

We have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of a deferred income tax asset to prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates have a significant impact on our valuation allowance relating to deferred income taxes. Our estimates could materially impact the financial statements.

Results of Operations

Consolidated net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 decreased by $788,569, or 3.5%, to $21,639,650, as compared to net sales of $22,428,219 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. Consolidated net sales for the three months ended August 31, 2016 decreased by $106,132, or 1.3%, to $8,243,197, as compared to net sales of $8,349,329 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the decrease to certain of the Company’s customers experiencing a downturn in their business and to one of the Company’s larger customers designing one new product model that does not include the Company’s product in its design. We also attribute the decrease in net sales to a downward trend in market demand for our products due to adverse market conditions in certain areas of the world, reducing these customers’ demand for their products. However, many of our other customers are doing well, which has resulted in an increase in sales to China, Canada and other areas of Asia for the nine months ended August 31, 2016. The Company expects these current market conditions to continue through the fourth quarter of 2016. The decrease in sales is offset by an increase in commission revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2016.

Our gross profit for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 decreased by $282,363 or 4.9%, to $5,430,241, as compared to $5,712,605 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 25.1% for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 compared to 25.5% for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. The Company attributes the decrease in gross profit to the decrease in sales volume as well as the mix of lower margin products sold to certain customers in the nine months ended August 31, 2016. Profit margins have also been negatively impacted because of a return of inventory by one of our distributor customers, resulting in an increase in our reserve for obsolete inventory. While this practice is allowed under the terms of our contract with the distributor, it has been used infrequently. Gross profit for the three months ended August 31, 2016 increased by $131,676, or 6.6%, to $2,138,380 as compared to $2,006,704 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales increased to 25.9% for the three months ended August 31, 2016 compared to 24.0% for the three months ended August 31, 2015. The Company attributed the increase in gross profit margin and percentage to sales in the three months ended August 31, 2016 primarily to the Company’s focus on seeking higher-margin business, which yielded a new customer who purchased products with a higher profit margin, and to enhanced commission revenue. Profit margins have also been impacted as a result of certain of our customers, who are some of the biggest buyers of components, demanding the lowest prices for our products. Some of them further demand periodic price reductions on a quarterly or semi-annual basis, as opposed to annual fixed pricing. We work with electronic manufacturing service subcontractor customers who manufacture products for other customers who do not have their own manufacturing operations. At times we are not able to recover these price reductions from our suppliers. The Company has agreements with these subcontractor customers to provide periodic cost reductions through rebates in the amount of 5%. These reductions only affect future shipments of our products, and does not affect existing orders. These reductions can have a negative impact on our profit margins since it reduces the amount of commissions we can earn. Even though this rebate can impact the Company’s gross profit margin, these subcontractor customers represent very significant potential growth for the Company, because they help the Company become an approved supplier at the customers they manufacture for, and they purchase our components for these customers. It would be very difficult for the Company to achieve business at these customers without the help of these subcontractor customers.

Selling and shipping expenses for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 was $1,848,239, an increase of $89,961, or 5.1%, as compared to $1,758,278 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. Selling and shipping expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2016 was $657,093, an increase of $65,885, or 11.1%, as compared to $591,208 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the increase to hiring additional salespeople to grow the business, travel and entertainment expenses and auto expenses and partially offset by decreases in commission expenses, advertising, freight out and shipping expenses. Additionally, we attribute the increase for the three months ended August 31, 2016 to an increase in commission expenses.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 was $3,092,754, an increase of $182,155, or 6.3%, as compared to $2,910,599 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2016 was $1,003,779, an increase of $55,652, or 5.9%, as compared to $948,127 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the increase to the hiring of additional employees to grow the business and increased costs of health insurance, computer expenses and professional fees and partially offset by decreases in general insurance, consulting expenses and directors fees for the nine months ended August 31, 2016. Additionally, we attribute the increase for the three months ended August 31, 2016 an increase in professional fees.

Depreciation expense for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 was $23,448, a decrease of $3,871 or 14.2%, as compared to $27,319, for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. Depreciation expense for the three months ended August 31, 2016 was $7,816, a decrease of $2,023, or 20.6%, as compared to $9,839 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the decrease to certain assets becoming fully depreciated during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2015.

Investment income for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 was $6,385, a decrease of $225 or 3.4%, compared to $6,610 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. Investment income for the three months ended August 31, 2016 was $2,303, a decrease of $2, or less than 1%, compared to $2,305 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. Investment income remained relatively unchanged during the nine and three months ended August 31, 2016 as compared to the nine and three months ended August 31, 2015.

Income taxes for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 was $93,588, a decrease of $134,795, or 59% as compared to income taxes of $228,383 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. Income taxes for the three months ended August 31, 2016 was $80,067, a decrease of $8,133 or 9.2%, as compared to income taxes of $88,200 for the three months ended August 31, 2015. The decrease is a result of a decrease in net income during the nine months ended August 31, 2016 and the related change in estimated federal and state taxes based on income as well as management’s revised estimate of future taxable income and the related impact on the reported deferred tax. This change in the valuation allowance is based on management’s estimates of future taxable income. The degree of variability inherent in the estimates of future taxable income is significant and subject to change in the near term. The Company reviews its estimates of future taxable income in each reporting period and adjustments to the valuation allowance are reflected in the current operations.

As a result of the foregoing, net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2016 was $378,598, compared to net income of $794,636 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. The net income for the three months ended August 31, 2016 was $391,928 compared to net income of $371,635 for the three months ended August 31, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of August 31, 2016 we had cash of $6,959,277 and working capital of $11,658,811. We believe that our working capital levels are adequate to meet our operating requirements during the next twelve months.

During the nine months ended August 31, 2016, we had net cash flow used in operating activities of $185,315, as compared to net cash flow provided by operating activities of $170,876 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the decrease in cash flow provided by operating activities in the nine months ended August 31, 2016 to decreases in net income, increases in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and inventory, as partially offset by decreases in deferred income taxes and, a smaller decrease in accrued expenses and an increase in accounts payable.

We had net cash flow used in investing activities of $(1,520) for the nine months ended August 31, 2016, as compared to net cash flow used in investing activities of $(57,580) for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the decrease in net cash flow used in operating activities to the Company purchasing less new equipment during the nine months ended August 31, 2016.

We had net cash flow used in financing activities of $(23,006) for the nine months ended August 31, 2016, as compared to net cash flow provided by financing activities of $143,750 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015. We attribute the decrease to the exercise of stock options to acquire 575,000 shares of common stock in the nine months ended August 31, 2015 and offset by the Company’s stock buyback program in the nine months ended August 31, 2016

As a result of the foregoing, the Company had a net decrease in cash of $209,841 for the nine months ended August 31, 2016, as compared to a net increase in cash of $257,046 for the nine months ended August 31, 2015.

We will continue to evaluate opportunities to use any excess cash generated by our operations, including investing in acquisitions, expanding our business by hiring new salespeople and other employees to help grow the business and repurchasing our common stock while maintaining sufficient liquidity to support our operational needs and fund future strategic growth opportunities. In November 2015, our board of directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $500,000 of our common stock. Pursuant to such authority and pursuant to Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, we repurchased a total of 26,850 shares for $20,003 during the three months ended August 31, 2016.

The table below sets forth our contractual obligations, including long-term debt, operating leases and other long-term obligations, as of August 31, 2016:
