ASTROTECH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(1) General Information
Description of the Company – Astrotech Corporation (Nasdaq: ASTC) (“Astrotech,” “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), a Washington corporation organized in 1984, is an innovative science and technology company that invents, acquires, and commercializes technological innovations sourced from research institutions, laboratories, universities, and internally, and then funds, manages, and builds proprietary, scalable start-up companies for profitable divestiture to market leaders to maximize shareholder value.
Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Astrotech Corporation in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2017. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Accounting Pronouncements – In May 2014 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (as updated by ASU 2015-14 in August 2015, ASU 2016-08 in March 2016, and ASU 2016-20 in December 2016). The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step process to achieve that core principle. ASU 2014-09 requires disclosures enabling users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 was to be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. ASU 2015-14 delayed the required adoption date for public entities to periods beginning after December 15, 2017, although early adoption to the original effective date under ASU 2014-09 is permitted. Once implemented, the Company can use one of two retrospective application methods for prior periods. Earlier application is not permitted. The Company expects this pronouncement to effect the timing of when revenue is recognized, but not the amount. The Company has hired a third-party consultant to assist in the adoption of this ASU and plans to adopt this standard by fiscal year 2019. The Company has not determined the method of adoption.
In August 2014 the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15 will explicitly require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern at each annual and interim period. Footnote disclosures will be required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the report issuance date. ASU 2014-15 defines substantial doubt using a likelihood threshold of “probable” similar to the current use of that term in GAAP for loss contingencies and provides example indicators. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016. We will adopt this ASU in fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. The Company does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its financial statements.
In July 2015 the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurements of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires management to evaluate inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted by all entities as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. With the assistance of a third-party consultant, the Company is in the process of assessing the impact, if any, on its financial statements.
In January 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“ASU 2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities will have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. A practicality exception will apply to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value

under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” and as such these investments may be measured at cost. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning July 1, 2018, and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company will adopt this ASU in fiscal year 2019.
In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record an ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. With the assistance of a third-party consultant, the Company is assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its financial statements.
In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost basis, ASU 2016-13 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current generally accepted accounting standards, and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. For available-for-sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current generally accepted accounting standards; however, ASU 2016-13 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. ASU 2016-13 affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. This amendment affects loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its financial statements.
In August 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new standard will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case it would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its financial statements.
Our Business Units
Astro Scientific
Astro Scientific is a technology incubator that commercializes innovative technologies. Subsidiaries 1 st Detect Corporation (“1 st Detect”) and Astrogenetix Inc. (“Astrogenetix”) currently reside in Astro Scientific:
1 st Detect - 1 st Detect develops, manufactures, and sells chemical analyzers for use in the security, defense, healthcare, food and beverage, and environmental markets. Our chemical analyzers can identify chemicals with more accuracy and precision than competing analyzers given their extreme sensitivity and specificity. By leveraging a concept from Oak Ridge National Laboratory and a preliminary design initiated by an engagement with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”) to develop a mass spectrometer for the International Space Station (“ISS”), the Company developed a chemical analyzer that enables real-time analytics that we believe to be significantly smaller, lighter, faster, and less expensive than competing analyzers.
In addition, the majority of revenue in 1 st Detect comes from working as a subcontractor on government contracts. The Company works with prime contractors in adapting our technology to be used in enhancing the government’s detection capabilities for a variety of applications.
Astrogenetix - Astrogenetix is a biotechnology company that is applying a fast-track, on-orbit discovery platform using the ISS to develop vaccines and other therapeutics. NASA has engaged the Center for Vaccine Development at the University of Maryland (“UMD”), one of the leading vaccinology institutions in the world, to research the application of a vaccine for Salmonella. NASA is collaborating with UMD, meaning little investment is required of Astrogenetix at this stage.

Astral
Astral Images Corporation (“Astral”) was created to commercialize decades of image enhancement research. Astral sells film-to-digital conversion, high-dynamic range (“HDR”) conversion, image enhancement, and defect removal and color correction services, providing economically feasible conversion of television and feature 35mm and 16mm films to the new 4K resolution (“4K”) Ultra-High Definition/High-Dynamic Range (“UHD/HDR”) format, the standard for the next generation of digital film distribution to the home. Due to a significant shift in the film scanning industry, most film assets will need to go through an upgrade to 4K HDR to remain relevant for over-the-top distribution (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc.) as television manufacturers sell more 4K UHD/HDR televisions and consumer demand for such content accelerates. Astral is positioned to be a leader in the digital conversion of feature films, film-based television series, sporting events shot on film, film libraries, film archives, and consumer media. Astral has now introduced to the digital conversion market Black ICE™ for the conversion of black and white film, Color ICE™ for the conversion of color film, and HDR ICE™ for the conversion of color film or digital video to the new HDR format.

Additional contributions through June 30, 2016 | 4,000 |  |  | — |  |  | 92 | %
Additional contributions through March 31, 2017 | 1,000 |  |  | — |  |  | 94 | %
Total Contributions | $ | 6,422 |  |  | $ | 422 |  |  |
(1) Ownership interest is determined by shares owned, for which cost basis differed at initial issuance.

The Company applies noncontrolling interest accounting, which requires us to clearly identify the noncontrolling interest in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and consolidated income statements. The Company discloses three measures of net loss: net loss, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest, and net loss attributable to Astrotech Corporation. The Company’s operating cash flows in its consolidated statements of cash flows reflect net loss, while our basic and diluted earnings per share calculations reflect net loss attributable to Astrotech Corporation.

(5) Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and the if-converted method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options and share-based awards.
The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used in the computations of both basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except per share data):

All unvested restricted stock awards for the nine months ended March 31, 2017, are not included in diluted net loss per share, as the impact to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 1,167,750 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.32 to $3.20 per share outstanding as of March 31, 2017, were not included in diluted net loss per share, as the impact to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive.
(6) Revenue Recognition
Astrotech recognizes revenue employing two generally accepted revenue recognition methodologies. The methodology used is based on contract type and the manner in which products and services are provided.
Production Unit Sales
When revenue for sale of manufactured product is commenced, we will recognize it when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when a firm sales contract or invoice is in place, delivery has occurred or services have been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.
11

Table of Contents
Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts
Most of the Company’s revenue is derived from contracts to manufacture mass spectrometers to a buyer’s specification. These contracts are accounted for under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 605-35 “Revenue Recognition: Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”. These contracts are fixed-price and are recorded on the percentage-of-completion basis using the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion as the measurement basis for progress toward completion and revenue recognition. Any losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately. Contract accounting requires significant judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract costs, and making related assumptions for schedule and technical issues. With respect to contract change orders, claims, or similar items, judgment must be used in estimating related amounts and assessing the potential for realization. These amounts are only included in contract value when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable.
The Company enters into fixed-priced subcontracts on government projects that are one to two years long. Revenue from certain long-term, integrated project management contracts to provide new prototypes and completion services is reported on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. At the outset of each contract, we prepare a detailed analysis of our estimated cost to complete the project, and our progress is based on the percentage of projected cost incurred. Risks related to service delivery, usage, productivity, and other factors are considered in the estimation process. The recording of profits and losses on long-term contracts requires an estimate of the total profit or loss over the life of each contract. This estimate requires consideration of total contract value, change orders, and claims, less costs incurred and estimated costs to complete. Anticipated losses on contracts are recorded in full in the period in which they become evident. Profits are recorded based upon the total estimated contract profit times the current percentage complete for the contract.
(7) Fair Value Measurement
The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured and included in the financial statements at fair value.
The fair value hierarchy established in the standard prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, 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.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following tables present the carrying amounts, estimated fair values, and valuation input levels of certain financial instruments as of March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2016:

The value of our available-for-sale investments is based on pricing from third-party pricing vendors, who may use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 inputs). Our held-to-maturity investments are recorded at amortized costs, as management’s intent is to hold such investments until maturity. The fair value of our held-to-maturity investments with maturities less than 90 days is considered the amortized value; the fair value measurements used for bonds and time deposits with maturities greater than 90 days is considered Level 2 and uses pricing from third-party pricing vendors who use quoted prices for identical or similar securities in both active and inactive markets.

The Company maintains funds in bank accounts that may exceed the limit insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) of $250 thousand per depositor. The risk of loss attributable to these uninsured balances is mitigated by depositing funds in what we believe to be high credit quality financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Securities Repurchase Program
On December 13, 2014, the Board of Directors amended the share repurchase program to allow for the repurchase of up to $5 million in Astrotech Corporation stock until December 31, 2015. On December 3, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized the extension of the share repurchase program through December 31, 2016. The share repurchase program ended as of December 31, 2016; as such, during the nine months ended March 31, 2017, no shares were repurchased as part of the share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2017, the Company had repurchased 188,635 shares of common stock at a cost of $492 thousand, which represents an average cost of $2.61 per share.

(11) Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. As of March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2016, the Company established a full valuation allowance against all of its net deferred tax assets.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company incurred pre-tax losses in the amount of $2.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company incurred pre-tax losses in the amount of $9.0 million and $9.9 million, respectively. The total effective tax rate was approximately 0% for each of the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016.
For each of the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company’s effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate of 35%, primarily due to recording of the valuation allowance placed against its net deferred tax assets.

Table of Contents
FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in an entity’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Company had an unrecognized tax benefit of $0 and $0.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.
Loss carryovers are generally subject to modification by tax authorities until three years after they have been utilized; as such, the Company is subject to examination for the fiscal years ended 2000 through present for federal purposes and fiscal years ended 2006 through present for state purposes. The reason for this extended examination period is due to the utilization of the loss carryovers generated by the sale of our Astrotech Space Operations business unit in fiscal year 2015.
(12) Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various lawsuits and other claims in the normal course of business. In addition, from time to time, the Company receives communications from government or regulatory agencies concerning investigations or allegations of noncompliance with laws or regulations in jurisdictions in which the Company operates.
The Company establishes reserves for the estimated losses on specific contingent liabilities, for regulatory and legal actions where the Company deems a loss to be probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In other instances, the Company is not able to make a reasonable estimate of liability because of the uncertainties related to the outcome or the amount or range of potential loss.

(13) Segment Information
The Company currently has two reportable business units: Astro Scientific and Astral.
Astro Scientific
Astro Scientific is a technology incubator that commercializes innovative technologies. Subsidiaries 1 st Detect and Astrogenetix currently reside in Astro Scientific:
1 st Detect - 1 st Detect develops, manufactures, and sells chemical analyzers for use in the security, defense, healthcare, food and beverage, and environmental markets. Our chemical analyzers can identify chemicals with more accuracy and precision than competing analyzers given their extreme sensitivity and specificity. By leveraging a concept from Oak Ridge National Laboratory and a preliminary design initiated by an engagement with NASA to develop a mass spectrometer for the ISS, the Company developed a chemical analyzer that enables real-time analytics that we believe to be significantly smaller, lighter, faster, and less expensive than competing analyzers. The majority of revenue in 1 st Detect comes from working as a subcontractor on government contracts. The Company works with prime contractors in adapting our technology to be used in enhancing the government’s detection capabilities for a variety of applications.
Astrogenetix - Astrogenetix is a biotechnology company that is applying a fast-track, on-orbit discovery platform using the ISS to develop vaccines and other therapeutics. NASA has engaged the Center for Vaccine Development at UMD, one of the leading vaccinology institutions in the world, to research the application of a vaccine for Salmonella. NASA is collaborating with UMD, meaning little investment is required of Astrogenetix at this stage.
Astral
Astral sells film-to-digital conversion, HDR conversion, image enhancement, and defect removal and color correction services, providing economically feasible conversion of television and feature 35mm and 16mm films to the new 4K UHD/HDR format, the standard for the next generation of digital film distribution to the home. Due to a significant shift in the film scanning industry, most film assets will need to go through an upgrade to 4K HDR to remain relevant for over-the-top distribution (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc.) as television manufacturers sell more 4K UHD/HDR televisions and consumer demand for such content accelerates. Astral is positioned to be a leader in the digital conversion of feature films, film-based television series, sporting events shot on film, film libraries, film archives, and consumer media. Astral has now introduced to the digital conversion market Black ICE™ for the conversion of black and white film, Color ICE™ for the conversion of color film, and HDR ICE™ for the conversion of color film or digital video to the new HDR format.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
Business Overview
Astrotech Corporation (Nasdaq: ASTC) (“Astrotech,” “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), a Washington corporation organized in 1984, is an innovative science and technology company that invents, acquires, and commercializes technological innovations sourced from research institutions, laboratories, universities, and internally, and then funds, manages, and builds proprietary, scalable start-up companies for profitable divestiture to market leaders to maximize shareholder value.
The Company currently operates two reportable business units, Astro Scientific and Astral Images Corporation (“Astral”), and their efforts are focused on the following:
Astro Scientific

• | 1 st Detect Corporation (“1 st Detect”) is a leading supplier of chemical detection and analysis instrumentation. Our next-generation solutions enable high-performance trace detection of critical threats or compounds of interest to the security and defense and industrial markets using a small, fast, and inexpensive platform.

• | Astrogenetix, Inc. (“Astrogenetix”) is developing next-generation vaccines and therapeutics using the unique environment of microgravity.

Astral Images Corporation

• | Astral is enabling film restoration, enhancement, and digitization using an automated process that algorithmically removes dust, scratches, and defects to restore it to its original condition. Astral also uses advanced algorithms to convert film or digital content to high-dynamic range (“HDR”). We are facilitating the shift from 2K resolution to ultra-high definition (“UHD”), HDR 4K resolution (“4K”), the format in which the next generation of digital video content will be distributed to the home.

Our Business Units
Astro Scientific
Astro Scientific is a technology incubator that commercializes innovative technologies. Subsidiaries 1 st Detect and Astrogenetix currently reside in Astro Scientific:
1 st Detect - 1 st Detect develops, manufactures, and sells chemical analyzers for use in the security, defense, healthcare, food and beverage, and environmental markets. Our chemical analyzers can identify chemicals with more accuracy and precision than competing analyzers given their extreme sensitivity and specificity. By leveraging a concept from Oak Ridge National Laboratory and a preliminary design initiated by an engagement with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”) to develop a mass spectrometer for the International Space Station (“ISS”), the Company developed a chemical analyzer that enables real-time analytics that we believe to be significantly smaller, lighter, faster, and less expensive than competing analyzers. The majority of revenue in 1 st Detect comes from working as a subcontractor on government contracts. The Company works with prime contractors in adapting our technology to be used in enhancing the government’s detection capabilities for a variety of applications.
Our efforts have resulted in a technology that has been or may be deployed in the following areas:

• | Security - Explosive device detection in airports: mass spectrometers, like 1 st Detect’s, function at a level of specificity significantly exceeding the current generation of screening devices in airports, meaning significantly fewer false alarms and a higher probability of threat detection. Our solution also has better resolution, translating into the detection of a broader range of compounds, whereas the current technology is only able to detect a small number of traditional explosives. 1 st Detect has partnered with an incumbent provider of ion mobility spectrometer instrumentation of the current generation of screening devices in airports, to develop next-generation explosive trace detection (“ETD”) systems for the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate using 1 st Detect’s breakthrough chemical analyzer technology. Additionally, 1 st Detect plans to introduce its own private-label, high-performance ETD system to the security market.

• | Defense - Military: our technology is extremely sensitive, and we believe we can detect chemical warfare agents in much lower concentrations compared to incumbent technologies. The high level of specificity of our instrumentation not only improves detection of traditional threats, but also detects next-generation chemical agents not easily detectable by current instrumentation. 1 st Detect had joined with a partner and was awarded a competitive prototype contract for the Next Generation Chemical Detector program of the Department of Defense’s Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical and Biological Defense to develop our technology for use with the military. Our product was developed to be used for the following purposes:

◦ | Evaluating the presence of chemicals after suspected chemical release incidents;

◦ | Continuously evaluating surface contamination following a chemical release to characterize contamination levels;

◦ | Evaluating the presence of contamination at a sample site; and

◦ | Confirming decontamination of potentially contaminated personnel and equipment.

Our portion of the contract was successfully completed; however, our partner has indicated that they do not plan to pursue the next phase of the program.

• | Healthcare - Breath analysis: we have partnered with the University of Texas Health Science Center (“UTHSC”) in the development of a bedside mass spectrometer to analyze human breath in real-time and to detect volatiles emanating from bacteria. Our robust, fast, and sensitive instrument will enable medical professionals to quickly screen with precision that is usually not possible with other slower and sometimes inaccurate alternative solutions that are in use today. Early results of our collaboration with UTHSC are encouraging as we continue to develop and refine our product offering for the breath analysis market segment.

• | Food and beverage: we are also enabling cost-effective real-time, in-situ analysis with mass spectrometry for what we believe to be the first time in food and beverage manufacturing. Not only does our instrumentation provide a full set of information to more thoroughly analyze results when there is a deviation in quality, but we provide objectivity that is not possible with the status quo - human taste testers.

• | Environmental: our mass spectrometers are built to continuously operate, monitor, detect, and record any unexpected excursions in the environment, while offering performance comparable to lab-quality instruments. Our solutions offer autonomous monitoring of the environment along the perimeter of manufacturing plants and air quality monitoring at critical infrastructure sites, such as mass transit stations.

Astrogenetix - Astrogenetix is a biotechnology company that is applying a fast-track, on-orbit discovery platform using the ISS to develop vaccines and other therapeutics. NASA has engaged the Center for Vaccine Development at the University of Maryland, one of the leading vaccinology institutions in the world, to research the application of a vaccine for Salmonella. NASA is collaborating with UMD, meaning little investment is required of Astrogenetix at this stage.
Astral
Astral sells film-to-digital conversion, high-dynamic range conversion, image enhancement, and defect removal and color correction services, providing economically feasible conversion of television and feature 35mm and 16mm films to the new 4K UHD/HDR format, the standard for the next generation of digital film distribution to the home. Due to a significant shift in the film scanning industry, most film assets will need to go through an upgrade to 4K HDR to remain relevant for over-the-top distribution (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc.) as television manufacturers sell more 4K UHD/HDR televisions and consumer demand for such content accelerates. Astral is positioned to be a leader in the digital conversion of feature films, film-based television series, sporting events shot on film, film libraries, film archives, and consumer media. Astral has now introduced to the digital conversion market Black ICE™ for the conversion of black and white film, Color ICE™ for the conversion of color film, and HDR ICE™ for the conversion of color film or digital video to the new HDR format.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
20

Table of Contents
judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Management believes there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended March 31, 2017 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Less: Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest |  | (47 | ) |  | (97 | )
Net loss attributable to Astrotech Corporation |  | $ | (2,800 | ) |  | $ | (3,742 | )

Revenue – Total revenue increased $215 thousand during the third quarter of fiscal 2017, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The majority of the revenue generated in the third quarters of fiscal 2017 and 2016 was associated with research-based, fixed-price, government-related subcontract agreements. In the current quarter, the Company had revenue from both of our major contracts, whereas in the prior year, we had revenue mainly from one contract.
Gross Profit – Gross profit is comprised of revenue less cost of revenue. Cost of revenue is comprised of labor, materials, and overhead related to products manufactured for the subcontract agreements. During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, cost of revenues decreased to $161 thousand from $354 thousand in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, and gross profit increased $408 thousand during the same period. The Company’s third quarter results reflect favorable variances to budgeted amounts related to our ongoing contracts.
Operating Expenses – Operating expenses decreased $584 thousand during the third quarter of fiscal 2017, compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The $242 thousand decrease in selling, general and administrative and the $342 thousand decrease in research and development are primarily driven by a reduction in workforce related to 1 st Detect realignment.
Income Taxes – Income tax expense decreased $13 thousand due to the requirements outlined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes” (“FASB ASC 740”). The realization of tax benefits depends on the existence of future taxable income. Pursuant to FASB ASC 740, a valuation allowance has been established to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.

Revenue – Total revenue increased $814 thousand during the nine months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016. The majority of the revenue we generated in the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was associated with research-based, fixed-price, government-related subcontract agreements. The first nine months of this year had revenue from both of our major contracts, whereas in the prior year, we had revenue mainly from one major project and the sale of space-grade handrails, an opportunity borne from our legacy space business for which the Company has unique expertise.
Gross Profit – Gross profit is comprised of revenue less cost of revenue. Cost of revenue is comprised of labor, materials, and overhead related to products manufactured for the subcontract agreements. During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, cost of revenues increased to $1.2 million from $986 thousand in the nine months ended March 31, 2016. Also, gross profit increased $589 thousand during the nine months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016, due to the increase in revenue as described above.
Operating Expenses – Operating expenses decreased $401 thousand during the nine months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016. Significant changes to operating expenses included the following:

• | Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $15 thousand, primarily driven by decreases related to a reduction in workforce, which was partially offset by an increase in equity compensation granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2017.

• | Research and development expense decreased $386 thousand, primarily driven by a reduction in workforce for the nine months ended March 31, 2017.

Income Taxes – Income tax expense decreased $11 thousand during the nine months ended March 31, 2017. The realization of tax benefits depends on the existence of future taxable income. Pursuant to FASB ASC 740, a valuation allowance has been established to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of March 31, 2017, we held cash and cash equivalents of $4.5 million, and our working capital was approximately $14.2 million. As of June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $4.4 million, and our working capital was approximately $21.1 million. Cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $0.1 million as of March 31, 2017, as compared to June 30, 2016, due to the sale of some of our available-for-sale securities and the maturities of some of our held-to-maturity securities, partially offset by funding our normal operating activities and research and development initiatives and payments for shares repurchased. Including our cash management investment portfolio, our cash and investments balance as of March 31, 2017 was $17.4 million.
Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities from continuing operations decreased $4.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016. This was primarily the result of decreased losses from operations of $0.9 million, a decrease in use of cash in other assets and liabilities of $1.9 million as we used our inventory balances related to the government projects, and a decrease in the use of cash of $0.5 million due to an increase in costs in excess of billings.
Investing Activities
Cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations decreased $0.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016, primarily caused by a decrease in the amount of available-for-sale securities sold and the maturities of our held-to-maturity securities. Cash provided by investing activities from discontinuing operations decreased $6.1 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2017, which was due to the receipt of an indemnity cash holdback during the previous fiscal year.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations increased $1.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2017, compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016, due to an increase in payments for shares repurchased.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $15.3 million, and our working capital was approximately $14.2 million.
Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including our success in developing and expanding markets for our products, payments under possible future strategic arrangements, continued progress of our research and development of potential products, the need to acquire licenses to new technology, costs associated with increasing our manufacturing and
23

Table of Contents
development capabilities, costs associated with strategic acquisitions including integration costs and assumed liabilities, and the status of competitive products and potential costs associated with both protecting and defending our intellectual property. Factors that could affect our capital requirements, in addition to those listed above, include continued collections of accounts receivable consistent with our historical experience and our ability to manage product development efforts.
We believe we have sufficient liquidity to continue to fund our operating expenses, capital requirements, and other expected liquidity requirements through fiscal year 2018.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. As of March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2016, the Company established a full valuation allowance against all of its net deferred tax assets.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company incurred pre-tax losses in the amount of $2.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company incurred pre-tax losses in the amount of $9.0 million and $9.9 million, respectively. The total effective tax rate was approximately 0% for each of the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016.
For each of the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company’s effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate of 35%, primarily due to recording of the valuation allowance placed against its net deferred tax assets.
FASB ASC 740 addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in an entity’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Company had an unrecognized tax benefit of $0 and $0.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.
Loss carryovers are generally subject to modification by tax authorities until three years after they have been utilized; as such, the Company is subject to examination for the fiscal years ended 2000 through present for federal purposes and fiscal years ended 2006 through present for state purposes. The reason for this extended examination period is due to the utilization of the loss carryovers generated by the sale of our Astrotech Space Operations business unit in fiscal year 2015.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2016.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on the evaluation and criteria of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
