Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information which includes condensed financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report, Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

It is management's opinion that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year December 31, 2013.

CUI Global, Inc. is a platform company dedicated to maximizing shareholder value through the acquisition, development and commercialization of new, innovative technologies. Through its subsidiaries, CUI Global has built a diversified portfolio of industry leading technologies that touch many markets.

In April 2013, CUI Global acquired 100% of the capital stock of Orbital Gas Systems Limited (Orbital), a United Kingdom-based provider of natural gas infra-structure and advanced technology, including metering, odorization, remote telemetry units (“RTU”) and a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries.

CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan are providers of electro-mechanical products, including components such as connectors, speakers, buzzers, test and measurement probes, control solutions including encoders and sensors; and power solutions which include the advanced power product families Novum and Solus. These offerings provide a technology architecture that addresses power and related accessories to industries as broad ranging as consumer electronics to defense and medical applications.

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in 2013 and 2012 include estimates used to review the Company’s long-lived assets for impairment, allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventory valuation, estimates of costs to complete and earnings on uncompleted contracts, valuation of non-cash capital stock issuances, valuation for unearned revenue, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

	8

Principles of Consolidation

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

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

	·	Level 1 – Pricing inputs are quoted prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
	·	Level 2 – Pricing inputs are quoted for similar assets, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 includes assets or liabilities valued at quoted prices adjusted for legal or contractual restrictions specific to these investments.
	·	Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the assets or liabilities; that is, the inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Cash

Cash includes deposits at financial institutions with maturities of three months or less. The Company at times has cash in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits or in interest bearing accounts, which may or may not be covered by FDIC insurance, and places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. CUI Global considers all highly liquid marketable securities with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include money market funds, certificates of deposit and commercial paper. At September 30, 2013, the Company had $3,139,400 of cash balances at domestic financial institutions which were covered under the FDIC and other insured deposits programs and $137,156 at foreign financial institutions covered under the United Kingdom Financial Services Compensation (FSC).

Investments

The Company considers all investments with original maturities over 90 days that mature in less than one year from the balance sheet date to be short-term investments. Both short- and long-term investments primarily include money market funds, certificates of deposit, corporate notes, and commercial paper. At September 30, 2013, CUI Global had $10,882,682 of short-term investments classified as held-to-maturity, which are reported at amortized cost, which approximates market. At September 30, 2013, the Company had $9,750,000 of investments in certificates of deposit which were covered under FDIC insured limits.

Accounts Receivable

CUI Global subsidiaries CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan grant credit to customers, with standard terms of Net 30 days and our subsidiary Orbital Gas Systems Limited grants credit to its customers, with standard terms of Net EOM 50 days (due within 50 days of the end of the month invoiced). Other credit terms are available based upon a review of the customer’s financial strength. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, therefore, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited. In addition, the Company maintains a foreign credit receivables insurance policy for CUI, Inc. customers that covers many of its foreign receivable balances in an effort to further reduce credit risk exposure. Included in the accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2013 is $0 of balances billed but not paid by a customer under retainage provisions.

	9

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished and un-finished products. At September 30, 2013, the Company had finished goods of $5,615,234, raw materials of $788,067, work in process of $339,754 and an allowance of $624,110.

Land, Buildings, Furniture, Vehicles, Equipment and Software

Land is recorded at cost and includes expenditures made to ready it for use. Land is considered to have an infinite useful life.

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

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

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

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

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

		Estimated Useful Life
Land		Infinite
Buildings		39 years
Furniture and equipment		3 to 10 years
Vehicles		3 to 5 years
Software		3 to 5 years

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

The Company records goodwill associated with its acquisitions of businesses when the consideration paid exceeds the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill balances are evaluated for potential impairment on an annual basis. The current guidance allows an entity to assess qualitatively whether it is necessary to perform step one of a prescribed two-step annual goodwill impairment test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The Company performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill at May 31, 2013, and determined that the two-step process was not necessary. The Company's goodwill balance at September 30, 2013 was $18,413,545, of which $12,907,157 related to CUI, Inc., $138,530 related to CUI Japan, and $5,367,858 related to Orbital Gas Systems Limited as a result of the April acquisition. The Company's goodwill balance at December 31, 2012 was $13,046,358, all of which related to CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan.

Asset Impairment

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are estimated. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. Otherwise, an impairment loss is not recognized. Management estimates the fair value and the estimated future cash flows expected. Any changes in these estimates could impact whether there was impairment and the amount of the impairment.

Patent Costs

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

Revenue Recognition

The recognition of revenue requires judgment, including whether a sale includes multiple elements, and if so, whether vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for those elements. Customers receive certain elements of CUI Global products over a period of time. These elements include licensing rights to manufacture and sell our proprietary patent protected products. The ability to identify VSOE for those elements and the fair value of the respective elements could materially impact the amount of earned and unearned revenue. CUI Global does not have any history as to the costs expected to be incurred in granting licensing rights relating to its products. Therefore, revenues may be recorded that are not in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred in performing these services.

	12

Revenues in connection with product related sales are recognized at the time the product is shipped to the customer.

VSOE sales also exist for CUI Japan related to the development of product for specific customers. The ability to identify VSOE for those elements and the fair value of the respective elements could materially impact the amount of earned and unearned revenue. VSOE sales are invoiced according to the related sales agreements.

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

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

Shipping and Handling Costs

Amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling represent revenues earned for the goods provided and are included in sales. Costs of shipping and handling are included in cost of revenues.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All grants under our stock-based compensation programs are accounted for at fair value and that cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period).

Compensation expense for options granted to non-employees is determined in accordance with the standard as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. Compensation expense for awards granted to non-employees is re-measured each period.

	13

Determining the appropriate fair value of the stock-based compensation requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based payment and stock price volatility. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value its stock option awards which incorporate the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk-free interest rate, dividend rate, and estimated life.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements of the Company's foreign offices have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (FASB ASC 830). All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Income statement amounts have been translated using an appropriately weighted average exchange rate for the period. The translation gains and losses resulting from the changes in exchange rates during 2013 and 2012 have been reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, except for gains and losses resulting from the translation of intercompany receivables and payables, which are included in earnings for the period.

Segment Reporting

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company operated in one operating segment based on the activities of the company in accordance with the ASC 280-10. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The 10-Q filing for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 presented five operating segments based on the products offered, which included: External Power, Internal Power, Industrial Controls, Discontinued Operations and Other. Management determined that presenting these as a consolidated segment is the best presentation as the business activities of CUI Global at September 30, 2012 were not organized on the basis of differences related to products, services or geography. The Company’s chief operating decision maker looked at the operations as a whole when making operating decisions and allocating resources for the period ended September 30, 2012.

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

3.	INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments classified as held-to-maturity, accounts receivable, prepaid expense and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable and deferred compensation approximate their fair value as of September 30, 2013, due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

4.	ACQUISITION

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

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

5.	INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 260 (“FASB ASC 260”), “Earnings per Share”, basic net profit (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net profit (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net profit (loss) per share is computed by dividing net profit (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares outstanding as of September 30, 2012, which consist of options and convertible notes, have been excluded from the diluted net loss per common share calculations because they were anti-dilutive at September 30, 2012. Accordingly, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

	17

At September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, 382,675 and 237,786 potential common stock shares are issuable upon the exercise of vested options and conversion of debt to common stock. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, 977,846 and 977,846 shares, respectively, related to options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive due to their exercise price being in excess of the average close price for the period ended or they were not yet vested. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, 625,349 and 672,807 shares, respectively, related to options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were antidilutive due to their exercise price being in excess of the average close price for the three month period ended or they were not yet vested.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

	Three months ended September 30, 2013		Three months ended September 30, 2012		Nine months ended September 30, 2013		Nine months ended September 30, 2012
Consolidated Net Income (loss)	$	214,315	$	(462,999)	$	47,001	$	(2,249,646)
Weighted average number of shares outstanding		20,564,163		10,819,681		16,796,310		9,940,168
Dilutive options		10,621		-		9,662		-
Weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares		20,574,784		10,819,681		16,805,972		9,940,168

Basic income (loss) per common share	$	0.01	$	(0.04)	$	0.00	$	(0.23)
Diluted income (loss) per common share	$	0.01	$	(0.04)	$	0.00	$	(0.23)

6.	INCOME TAXES

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., various state and foreign jurisdictions. The 2013 income tax provision was primarily comprised of foreign taxes from our operations in the United Kingdom. The Company considers earnings from our foreign subsidiaries to be permanently invested and, as a result, U.S. taxes on such earnings are not provisioned. An income tax benefit has not been recognized for our U.S. operating losses generated in prior periods based on uncertainties concerning the ability to generate taxable income in future periods. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not.

7.	LINE OF CREDIT

During the period ended September 30, 2013, the Company maintained a $4,000,000 revolving working capital line of credit with the Business Credit division of Wells Fargo Capital Finance, part of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (NYSE: WFC), interest payable monthly at the Daily Three Month LIBOR plus 3.25%. Effective April 3, 2012, the Wells Fargo LOC expiration was extended to July 31, 2015.

On September 27, 2013, our wholly owned subsidiary, CUI, Inc., closed on a two year revolving Line of Credit (LOC) with Wells Fargo Bank in the principal amount of four million dollars, ($4,000,000). The interest rate on any outstanding balance is 1.75% above either the daily one month LIBOR or the LIBOR in effect on the first day of the applicable fixed rate term. The LOC is secured through a security agreement on accounts receivable and equipment, as well as other miscellaneous personal property assets. CUI Global, Inc., the parent company, is a payment guarantor of the LOC. This revolving LOC effectively satisfies in full and terminates the earlier LOC with Wells Fargo Bank.

	18

As of the date of this filing, the Company is compliant with all covenants on the line of credit with Wells Fargo Capital Finance. At September 30, 2013, there was no balance outstanding on the line of credit.

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

Power Supply Units

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

Digital Power Patent License Agreement with Power-One, Inc.

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

Novum ^® Advanced Power

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

Solus ^® Topology License with California Power Research

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

	23

Solus ^® Power Topology

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

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

Components

AMT^® Encoder

The company has an exclusive agreement to develop, sell and distribute the AMT encoder worldwide. The AMT series modular encoder is designed with proprietary, capacitive, code-generating technology as opposed to optical or magnetic encoding. This unique device allows breakthroughs in selectable resolution, shaft-adaptation and convenient mounting solutions to bring ease of installation, reduction in SKU’s and economies of scale in purchasing. The AMT amounts to almost 2000 different encoders in one package. The company is selling and distributing the AMT through various customers. Moreover, the product is being marketed by multiple DC motor manufacturers. The AMT has been awarded several design wins from Motion Control OEM’s producing a wide range of products from cash machines to robotics.

Orbital Gas Systems, Ltd. - Subsidiary

	24

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

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

GasPT2

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

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

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

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

	25

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

In conjunction with the Orbital acquisition, we have moved the entire GasPT2 technology portfolio, along with the VE-Probe, into Orbital’s product division, Orbital Global Solutions. Orbital-GS has successfully introduced the combined GasPT2 unit and VE-Probe to National Grid, the largest natural gas provider in the UK. In addition, along with passing first phase testing by GE-Energy in October/November 2012, the GasPTi device has now successfully undergone second phase testing with GE-Energy in October 2013.

In January 2012 the company entered into a five (5) year, exclusive distribution agreement for our GasPT2 technology with an Italian company, SOCRATE s.p.a. for sales, marketing, distribution and service of our GasPT2 gas metering device for Italy and North Africa, including Libya and Tunisia. SOCRATE is the “vendor-of-choice” for SNAM RETE GAS (“SRG”) and was referred to the company by SRG. SOCRATE continues to be involved in negotiations with SRG relative to both the 2010 Technical Upgrade of Metering Facilities and 2011/2012 New Capacity and Implementation Plan. In conjunction with those two initiatives, SOCRATE has recently ordered a demonstration unit and several field test units for installation on the SRG transmission system.

Following the acquisition of Orbital and the transfer of gas operations to Orbital-GS, the company has entered into a series of Distribution Agreements with internationally recognized entities in the natural gas industry. These agreements are designed to supplement and enhance our previously announced and continuing agreements with EMC, MGlobal, BWG/Blue Flame and SOCRATE.

Intellectual Property

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, revenue was $45,424,208 and $29,193,827, respectively. The revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is comprised of $32,420,945 from CUI products, $11,998,646 from the Gas segment operations, including Orbital, $975,661 from CUI Japan products, and $28,956 for freight. The revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is comprised of $28,202,861 from CUI Inc. product sales, $954,549 from CUI Japan product, sales and $36,417 from freight.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, revenue was $17,213,757 and $10,712,306, respectively. The revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 is comprised of $10,852,714 from CUI products, $6,041,561 from the Gas segment operations, including Orbital, $310,132 from CUI Japan products, and $9,350 for freight. The revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012 is comprised of $10,355,624 from CUI Inc. product sales, $341,847 from CUI Japan product sales, and $14,835 from freight.

The increase in revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is attributable to the acquisition of Orbital Gas Systems Limited in April 2013 which accounts for $11,602,646 of the increase, in addition to increases through CUI, Inc. of $4,614,084 which is the result of continued product introductions during 2012 and 2013, sales and marketing efforts, the addition of Future Electronics as a distribution channel following the global distribution agreement between CUI and Future Electronics that began in January 2013, and the increased back log of CUI orders on hand at December 31, 2012.

The increase in revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2013 is attributable to the acquisition of Orbital Gas Systems Limited in April 2013 which accounts for $6,041,561 of the increase, and increases through CUI, Inc. of $497,090 which is the result of the items discussed previously for the growth during the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

The customer orders related to the Power and Electro-Mechanical segment (CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan) are associated with continued product introductions, continued sales and marketing programs, new customer engagements, the addition of Future Electronics as a distributor of CUI products, and the strengthening within the electronic components industry.

The subsidiary CUI, Inc. experienced consistent orders during the nine months ended 2013 and 2012 and held a backlog of customer orders of approximately $13.8 million as of September 30, 2013 as compared to a backlog of customer orders of approximately $14.7 million as of September 30, 2012. This decrease is reasonable given the increase in revenues offset by the increase in customer orders received during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the prior year. At September 30, 2013, Orbital Gas Systems Limited held a backlog of customer orders of approximately $23.9 million.

Cost of revenues

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the cost of revenue was $27,747,351 and $18,174,099, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the cost of revenue was $10,614,380 and $6,778,965, respectively.

The cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 decreased to 61.08% from 62.25% during the prior year comparative period. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue decreased to 61.66% from 63.28% in the prior year period. This percentage will vary based upon the product mix sold during the period, the mix of natural gas systems sold during the period, and is also dependent upon the competitive markets in which the Company competes as well as foreign exchange rates.

	27

The cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue for the Power and Electro-Mechanical and Gas segments for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was 60.38% and 63.14%, respectively.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

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

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, SG&A expenses increased $2,846,814. The overall increase is primarily associated with the addition of the selling, general and administrative activities of Orbital Gas Systems Limited since April 2013 which accounted for approximately $2.5 million of this increase and includes the continued sales efforts and related costs for the GasPT2 products and other gas systems sold through Orbital. Additional factors impacting this increase are the ongoing activities to support the revenue growth through CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan operations, which generated increased revenues during the nine month period of approximately $4.6 million, acquisition related expenses, and indirect expenses incurred in relation to the equity offering completed in April 2013. As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A expenses decreased to 31.37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to 39.05% during the prior year comparable period.

Depreciation and Amortization

The depreciation and amortization expenses are associated with depreciating buildings, furniture, equipment, software and other intangible assets over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the depreciation and amortization expenses were $2,202,448 and $521,769, respectively. The large increase in the depreciation and amortization expense between the periods is primarily the result of the amortization expense of $1,466,439 associated identifiable intangible assets that were acquired with Orbital Gas Systems Limited during 2013 over their estimated useful lives.

Research and Development

The research and development costs are related to the development of technology and products. Research and development costs were $631,331 and $558,833 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The expense is associated with continued research and development of new and existing technologies including the Novum digital power modules, Solus advanced power topology, GasPT2, and other products.

Bad Debt

During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 the bad debt expense was $32,470 and $32,979, respectively. The bad debt expense in 2013 relates to several individual customers as well as an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts of $10,000. The bad debt expense in 2012 relates to several individual customers.

Other Income

Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, consisted of $77,679 of interest income, $75,672 of gain on foreign exchange, $18,000 of rental income, $806 from the recovery of bad debts and $275 of miscellaneous income. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, consisted of $20,622 of interest income, $19,177 of gain on foreign exchange, $2,000 of rental income, $1,323 of miscellaneous income and $339 from the recovery of bad debts.

	28

Investment Income

The Company recognized earnings of $4,212 on equity investment in affiliate for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. For the same period ended 2012, the Company recognized earnings of $36,473 on the equity investment in an affiliate.

Convertible debt and amortization of debt offering costs

The Company recorded an expense of $42,777 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and $55,000 for the same period in 2012, for the amortization of debt offering costs. The capitalized debt offering costs for which this expense related during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was fully amortized during the third quarter of 2013.

Interest Expense

The interest expense of $308,954 and $460,510 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is for interest on the bank operating line of credit, bank loans, and secured and unsecured promissory notes. The decrease is primarily due to the reduction of debt in 2012 and during the first nine months of 2013 through principal payments. The 2013 payments on notes payable included $2,000,000 of principal on the note payable to International Electronic Devices as well as repayment of the borrowing on the line of credit of $459,448.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

As of September 30, 2013, CUI Global held Cash and cash equivalents of $18,716,542 and investments of $10,882,682. Operations, acquisitions, investments, patents and equipment have been funded through cash on hand, cash from operations, and proceeds from equity financings during the nine month period ended September 30, 2013.

Cash provided by operations

Operating requirements generated positive cash flow from operations of $2,370,673 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, versus negative cash flow from operations of $1,098,022 for the same period last year. The change in cash provided by operations is primarily the result of the net profit earned during the nine months ended September 30, of 2013. This improvement, both during the third quarter, and as compared with the prior year comparable year to date period results are associated with the increase in revenues and related gross profits, both from the addition of Orbital Gas Systems Limited in April 2013 which contributed $6,041,561 of revenues during the third quarter and the growth in the Power and Electro-Mechanical segment of CUI, Inc. and CUI Japan which had increased revenues over the prior year comparable nine month period of $4,239,196. The increase in revenues through the Power and Electro-Mechanical segment is associated with growth in revenues through existing customers as well as to new customers, including Future Electronics which was added as a distribution channel during January 2013. The growth in revenues and related gross profits was offset by the continued expenses to reach new customers, promote new product lines including Novum, Solus and GasPT2, increased advertising costs for company products, new product introductions, costs associated with the acquisition and integration of Orbital Gas Systems as well as the overall growth in expenses of the business in relation to the growth in revenues. A factor that impacted the cash provided by operations include a large collections of $2.0 million from a single customer of Orbital and $1.2 million from a single customer of CUI Inc. during the period ended September 30, 2013 offset by an increase of $0.9 million from a single Orbital customer . Additionally, the cash flow from operations was impacted by an increase in inventory which is primarily a function of product held for scheduled customer orders. An increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets largely associated with prepaid license fees for future sales of the GasPT2 products and prepaid insurance premiums. Accounts payable increased, which is associated with the increase in inventory levels and the payment terms and timing of receipt of products and services from vendors. Further, a payment of $1.8 million was issued toward an accrued obligation for services provided to Orbital. The decrease in accrued taxes payable is primarily associated with payment of value-add-tax in the UK of $0.6 million. Unearned revenue and billings in excess of costs increased during the period, these are associated with several customer prepayments and deferred revenues including on certain power and electro-mechanical product sales through distribution.

	29

As the Company focuses on technology development and product line additions during 2013, it will continue to fund research and development together with related sales and marketing efforts for its various product offerings with cash on hand and cash flows from continuing operations.

Capital Expenditures and Investments

CUI Global invested $2,500 and $0, respectively, in patent costs during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012. It is expected that investments in patent costs will continue throughout 2013 as patents are pursued in order to protect the rights to use its product developments.

The Company invested $403,400 in other intangible assets during the first nine months of 2013 as compared to $39,940 for the same period last year. The 2013 investment is related to the July 2013 acquisition of the exclusive worldwide intellectual property license to the VE probe technology, including both pipeline sampling and thermowell applications. The licenses terms include ongoing minimum royalties during the term of the exclusive agreement.

The Company invested $10,882,682 in short term investments classified as held to maturity during the first nine months of 2013. These investments included money market securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and corporate notes.

In the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, the Company received payments of $27,273 and $22,096, respectively toward note receivable balances.

During the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, there was $836,892 and $559,713 invested in property and equipment, including computers and related hardware and software, engineering lab equipment, tooling for manufacturing, product certifications, furniture, and other fixed assets, respectively.

Effective April 1, 2013, CUI Global closed on a share purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the equity interest in Orbital Gas Systems Limited, a company organized under the laws of England and Wales (“Orbital”), from Orbital’s sole shareholder. The purchase price for the acquisition of Orbital was £17,000,000 British pounds sterling (“£”), subject to purchase price adjustments, 100% of the purchase price was paid in cash. To secure indemnification obligations, 5.0% of the purchase price, or £850,000, is held in escrow to and through December 1, 2013. The purchase price was $26,205,500, based on the actual exchange rate for British pound sterling to U.S. dollars achieved on April 18, 2013 for the acquisition of Orbital. The cash paid upon acquisition, net of cash received was $17,709,507. As a result of the acquisition of Orbital, CUI Global acquired Goodwill of $5,367,858, intangible, customer lists $7,516,149, intangible, order backlog $3,595,101, intangible, technology-based asset know how $3,044,863, intangible, technology based asset software $659,962 and intangible, trade name $1,933,093.

Financing activities

During the first nine months of 2013, the Company received net proceeds after related expenses of $45,135,280 from the registered offering sale of 9,660,000 shares of common stock at $5.00 per share, made payments of $459,448 against the line of credit, $2,000,000 of payments were made against the related party note payable and payments of $39,051 were made against capital leases of motor vehicles and equipment at Orbital. During the first nine months of 2012, the Company received proceeds of $13,532,285 from the sales of common stock and exercise of warrants, $1,528,900 of payments were made against the line of credit, $4,000,000 of payments were made against notes and loans payable, $3,000,000 of payments were made against the related party note payable, and $35,000 of payments were made against a convertible note payable with a related party.

Recap of liquidity and capital resources

During the first nine months of 2013, the Company continued to improve its financial strength. This included completion of the equity raise which resulted in net proceeds of $45,135,280 after related expenses, the acquisition of Orbital Gas Systems Limited which resulted in cash paid upon acquisition, net of cash received of $17,709,507, repayment of $2,000,000 in principal toward the note payable with International Electronic Devices, Inc., thereby reducing the balance of the note payable to $5,303,683 and a profitable nine months ended September 30, 2013. In conjunction with the repayment of $2,000,000 of principal towards the note payable balance, the maturity date of the note was extended to May 15, 2020 and the interest was reduced to 5% per annum, payable monthly, with the principal due as a balloon payment at the maturity date. As of September 30, 2013 the Company had an accumulated deficit of $76,124,821.

The Company believes its operations and existing financing structure, including the proceeds from the equity offering completed in April 2013, will provide sufficient cash to meet its short-term working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

	31

The Company expects the revenues from CUI, Inc., CUI Japan and those from the recently acquired Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. to help cover operating and other expenses for the next twelve months of operations. If revenues and the funds raised in 2012 and in April 2013 through the sales of equity are not sufficient to cover all operating and other expenses, additional funding may be required. There is no assurance the Company will be able to raise such additional capital. The failure to raise capital or generate product sales in the expected time frame will have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies

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

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 of our financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact its financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In connection with the preparation of this report, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2013. Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2013.

Acquisition of Orbital Gas Systems Limited

Effective April 1, 2013 the Company acquired Orbital Gas Systems Limited, “Orbital”. In connection with this significant transaction, management has been evaluating and implementing the necessary controls related to the reporting and disclosure of Orbital’s operations and activities. Based on these evaluations and discussions, we consider what revisions or improvements are necessary in order for us to conclude that our internal controls are effective. We are in the process of identifying areas where there may be a need for improvement in our internal controls and following such process, during the fourth quarter of 2013, we will design and implement controls and processes to address the issues identified through this review.

In relation to the current Form 10-Q, management is not aware of any material weaknesses related to Orbital Gas Systems Limited’s results for the current quarter that would have a material impact on the interim unaudited condensed consolidated results of CUI Global, Inc. as of September 30, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We continue to evaluate and, where appropriate, design and enhance controls over financial reporting related to processes that require improvement. Toward this objective, during the third quarter of 2013 CUI Global hired a Director of Global Controls to oversee the internal controls over financial reporting for CUI Global and its subsidiaries. Also during the third quarter of 2013, we transitioned CUI Global’s financial reporting to SAP Business One accounting software, an accounting software already in use by subsidiary CUI, Inc. We believe we have monitored and maintained appropriate controls during this implementation period. Other than these identified changes, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
