Except for historical information, the statements contained herein are forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts.  The words "believe," "may," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "should," "plan," "could," "target," "potential," "is likely," "will," "expect" and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.   From time to time, the Company may publish or otherwise make available forward-looking statements of this nature.  All such forward-looking statements are based on the expectations of management when made and are subject to, and are qualified by, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by those statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following factors, among others, that could affect the outcome of the Company's forward-looking statements: general economic and market conditions; the inability to profitably run current operations sufficient to cover overhead;  the inability to attract, hire and retain key personnel; the difficulty of integrating an acquired business; unforeseen litigation; unfavorable result of potential litigation; the ability to maintain sufficient liquidity in order to support operations; the ability to maintain satisfactory relationships with current and future suppliers; federal and/or state regulatory and legislative action; the ability to implement or adjust to new technologies and the ability to secure and maintain key contracts and relationships.  New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to accurately predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any risk factor, or combination of risk factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or the risk factors described in this Quarterly Report or in the documents we incorporate by reference, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note A – Basis of Presentation, Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Nature of Operations

Alanco Technologies, Inc. (Stock Symbol:  ALAN) was incorporated in 1969 under the laws of the State of Arizona.  Unless otherwise noted, the "Company" or "Alanco" refers to Alanco Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company formed Alanco Energy Services, Inc. ("AES"), for the purpose of obtaining property to establish a water disposal facility near Grand Junction, CO to receive produced water generated as a byproduct from oil and natural gas production in Western Colorado.  The new Deer Creek facility started to receive produced water in August 2012.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company implemented a plan to divest of its 160 acre owned and undeveloped land and associated permits located in Whitewater, Colorado and known as Indian Mesa.  Refer to Note D – Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations for further discussion.

The Company formed Alanco Behavioral Health, Inc. ("ABH") during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated in the State of Arizona with the expectation of pursuing a business plan to consolidate small cap private behavioral health companies through acquisition.  The Company executed a letter of intent to purchase the operations of a behavioral health treatment facility located in California, but has since terminated said acquisition and currently has no plans to pursue acquisitions in the behavioral health market.

The Company is developing alternative business plans for monetization of its resources.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted.  In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements.  Such necessary adjustments consist of normal recurring items and the elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's June 30, 2016 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
    Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities – The estimated fair value for assets and liabilities are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant information. The Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") prioritizes inputs used in measuring fair value into a hierarchy of three levels: Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets, Level 2 – observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 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 asset or liability; and Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.  These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision.  The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and out of Level 1, 2 and 3 categories as of the date of the event or change in circumstances occurs.  The carrying amounts of receivables, prepaid expenses, trust account, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and note payable approximate fair value given their short-term nature or their effective interest rates, which represent Level 3 input levels.

There were no fair value measurements of Property and Equipment at June 30, 2016.

Fair Value of Asset Retirement ObligationThe Deer Creek asset retirement obligation is the estimated cost to close the Deer Creek facility under terms of the lease, meeting environmental and State of Colorado regulatory requirements.  The estimate is determined at discrete points in time based upon significant unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists that is significant to the fair value of the liability, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.  Management's estimate of the asset retirement obligation is based upon a cost estimate developed by a consultant knowledgeable of government closure requirements and costs incurred at similar water disposal facility operations.  A present value discount has not been taken as the estimated closure costs, excluding regulatory changes and inflation adjustments, are anticipated to remain fairly consistent over the operational life of the facility.  The lack of an active market to validate the estimated asset retirement obligation results in the fair value of the asset retirement obligation to be a Level 3 fair value measurement.  ASC Topic 410-20: Asset Retirement Obligations requires the Company to review the asset retirement obligation on a recurring basis and record changes in the period incurred.

 Fair Value of Contingent Payments – The contingent land payment liability is also determined at discrete points in time based upon unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists that is significant to the fair value of the liability, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.  In calculating the estimate of fair value for the contingent land payment, management completed an estimate of the present value of the contingent liability based upon projected income, cash flows and capital expenditures for the Deer Creek facility developed under plans currently approved by the Company's board of directors.  Different assumptions relative to the expansion or alternative uses of the Deer Creek and Indian Mesa facilities could result in significantly different valuations.  The projected payments have been discounted at a rate of 3% per annum to determine net present value.  The lack of an active market to validate the estimated contingent land liability results in the fair value of the contingent land liability to be a Level 3 fair value measurement.  ASC Topic 820: Fair Value Measurement requires the Company to review the contingent land liability on a recurring basis and record changes in the period incurred.

Fair Value of Property and Equipment, netThe fair value of property and equipment, net is evaluated on a non-recurring basis and is based upon unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists that is significant to the fair value of the asset, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.  Operating results to date for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 for the Deer Creek facility as compared to projections for the same period have resulted in a significant unfavorable variance to date primarily due to the negative prolonged impact of depressed market prices of oil and gas and the associated uncertainty of the market recovery.  Therefore, the Company has recorded an impairment charge of $350,000 on its property and equipment as of March 31, 2017, which is based on the estimated selling price of the assets.  The estimated selling price is subject to material change based on information known at certain points in time and estimate revisions could occur in the near term.
 
Assets Held for Sale – The Company has implemented a plan to divest of its 160 acre owned and undeveloped land and associated permits located in Whitewater, Colorado and known as Indian Mesa.  As a result, the value of the land and associated permits has been reclassified as Assets Held for Sale at March 31, 2017. A long-lived asset classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The value of Assets Held for Sale represents the carrying amount.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance regarding revenue from contracts with customers.  The guidance outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes the most current revenue recognition guidance.  In August 2015, this accounting pronouncement was deferred for one year, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period.  Earlier application is permitted only as of reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial position and results of operations, but does not anticipate it to have a material impact.

In January 2016, the FASB issued guidance regarding the enhancement of reporting financial instruments including aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure.  The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within those fiscal years.  While a portion of the guidance allows for early application, it does not permit complete early adoption.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial position and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance regarding lease reporting.  The guidance requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases with terms of more than 12 months.  The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018 including interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial position and results of operations, but will need to report a right of use asset and liability in regards to its facility lease.

In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance under the simplification initiative regarding stock compensation.  The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods.  Early adoption is permitted provided that all amendments are adopted in the same period.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial position and results of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance regarding credit losses on financial instruments including loans.  The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 including interim periods within those annual periods.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial position and results of operations.

In October 2016, the FASB issued guidance regarding the treatment of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory.  The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods.  Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of an annual period.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance regarding the definition of a business as it pertains to business combinations.  The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within that reporting period and early adoption is permitted.  The Company has adopted the guidance, which had no material impact on its financial position and results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance regarding amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification pursuant to SEC staff announcements.  The guidance is effective upon issuance.  The Company has adopted the guidance, which had no material impact on its financial position and results of operations.

Note B – Stock-Based Compensation and Warrants

The Company has stock-based compensation plans and reports stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards based on the estimated grant date fair value.  The value of the compensation cost is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the award (generally the option vesting term).

The Company estimates fair value using the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Assumptions used to estimate compensation expense are determined as follows:
 
The Company has several employee stock option and officer and director stock option plans that have been approved by the shareholders of the Company.  The plans require that options be granted at a price not less than market on the date of grant and are more fully discussed in our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016.

The gross balance of $295,400 at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016 represents the outstanding amount drawn by ACC on a $295,400 credit line provided by the Company.  The note is secured by all assets of ACC and bears interest at the rate of 9.5% per annum.  Interest of $16,300 is unpaid and fully reserved at March 31, 2017.

ACC's business plan is based on the Executive Action, known as DAPA, issued by President Obama in November 2014.  In February 2015, twenty-six states filed a lawsuit to stop the program and the court granted an injunction meaning that the U.S. Government cannot proceed with rolling out the program.  The U.S. government appealed the lawsuit which went to the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.  The appeal was unsuccessful and in January 2016, the Supreme Court granted an oral hearing which was held in April 2016.  In June 2016, the Supreme Court announced that the justice votes were even for and against the DAPA case, effectively a no decision.  As a result, it is presumed that the case will go back to trial at the District Court in Texas.  Due to the uncertainty of the court case, a change in administration and overall immigration reform, the Company has fully reserved for the amount of the note as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016.

Note D – Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

During the fiscal year 2016, Alanco's Board of Directors approved a formal plan to sell its 160 acre owned and undeveloped land and associated permits known as Indian Mesa.  The plan was contemplated because the Company intends to expand into other markets that are unrelated to waste disposal.  Accordingly, the Assets Held for Sale of $1,654,700 and $1,653,500 presented in the attached condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, represents the Indian Mesa land and associated permits.  The classification of the assets to Assets Held for Sale does not affect the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the Indian Mesa land is undeveloped and has no associated discontinued operations.  The Company continues to actively pursue a sale of the assets, however, due to the depressed oil and gas prices the market in Western Colorado was negatively impacted and a sale has been prolonged.  As a result, the Company has classified the Assets Held for Sale as non-current as of March 31, 2017.

At March 31, 2017, the note payable - related party balance of $750,000 represents the amount drawn against a $750,000 line of credit with the Anderson Family Trust ("Trust") managed by Donald and Rebecca Anderson, both of whom are members of the Company's Board of Directors.  The line of credit was entered into on June 28, 2016 and amended on November 14, 2016, at which time the credit limit was increased to $750,000 and the maturity date was revised to January 1, 2018 when the full outstanding balance is due.  As of March 31, 2017, the line of credit has no remaining balance available to be borrowed.  The outstanding balance accrues interest at 7% per annum payable monthly and is collateralized by all assets of the Company.  At loan inception, the Trust was paid a loan fee of $10,000 plus a warrant to purchase 140,000 shares of Alanco Common Stock of which 20,000 warrants vested immediately and 10,000 warrants vest each month thereafter.  The exercise price per share for the warrants is $0.50 per share for one half of each vested group and $1.00 for the other half of each vested group with a five year term following the issuance date.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate fair value of stock-based awards.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (continued)

During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company expensed approximately $27,500 in interest related to the note, approximately $11,700 related to amortization of deferred loan costs, and approximately $5,300 related to the value of 90,000 warrants which vested during the nine month period.  At March 31, 2017, the Company had unpaid interest to the Trust of approximately $8,400.  The line of credit has a provision allowing the lender, at the lender's option, to convert up to the full amount of the credit line into shares of a then available class of preferred stock outstanding any time prior to the full repayment of the line of credit.  There is currently no such preferred stock outstanding and the rights and privileges of preferred stock have not been determined.

Note G – Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted income (loss) per share of common stock was computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during the period.  Dilutive securities are any options, warrants, convertible debt, and preferred stock that are freely exercisable into common stock at less than the prevailing market price.  Dilutive securities are not included in the weighted average number of shares when inclusion would increase the earnings per share or decrease the loss per share. For the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no dilutive securities included in the loss per share calculation as the effect would be antidilutive.  Considering all holders' rights, total common stock equivalents issuable under these potentially dilutive securities are approximately 1,340,000 and 1,200,000 at March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Note H – Equity

The Company did not issue any shares of Common Stock during the nine months ended March 31, 2017.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized the value of exercisable detachable warrants issued with debt in the amount of $5,300.

The Company has authorized 25,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of which 5,000,000 shares have been allocated to Series A, 500,000 have been allocated to Series B, 400,000 have been allocated to Series C Junior Participating, 500,000 have been allocated to Series D, and 750,000 have been allocated to Series E.  At March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, no Preferred Stock of any series was issued or outstanding.

Note I - Contingent Payments

Contingent land payment of $686,700 at March 31, 2017 represents the net present value of $800,000 of estimated contingent land payments due under an agreement whereby Alanco Energy Services, Inc. ("AES") acquired 160 acres of land known as Indian Mesa.  The maximum total of $800,000 of contingent land payments is based upon 10% of quarterly revenues in excess of operating expenses up to $200,000 per quarter for activity at both the Deer Creek and Indian Mesa locations.   The payments were projected considering current operating plans as approved by the Alanco Board of Directors, with the payments discounted at a rate of 3% per annum.  Accretion expense is being imputed at 3% per annum, increasing the fair value of the contingent land payment during the nine months ended March 31, 2017 by $14,000.  During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, no contingent land payment was earned or payable under the contingency formula.  The contingent land payment is an obligation of the Company which will not be transferred to a buyer of the Indian Mesa land and associated permits discussed in Note D – Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.  The Company will maintain the liability for contingent payments resulting from future revenues on the Indian Mesa land resulting from the buyer's operations.

The Company also has a contingent purchase price liability with TC Operating, LLC ("TCO") under the original agreement executed in April 2012 which transferred the Deer Creek facility land lease to the Company.  TCO can earn additional purchase price payments based upon a percentage of the net cumulative EBITDA (net of all related AES capital investments) over a period of approximately 10 years (contingent purchase price), approximately the initial term of the lease.  As of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the Company had no liability recorded for the contingent purchase price based on the probability of the contingent payment being realized.

Note J – Asset Retirement Obligation

The Company has recognized estimated asset retirement obligations (closure cost) of $434,000 at March 31, 2017 to remove leasehold improvements, remediate any pollution issues and return the Deer Creek water disposal property to its natural state at the conclusion of the Company's lease.  The closure process is a requirement of both the Deer Creek lease and the State of Colorado, a permitting authority for such facilities.  The closure cost estimate, in current dollars, was completed by an approved independent consultant experienced in estimating closure costs for water disposal operations and the estimated amount was approved by the State of Colorado.  A present value discount has not been taken as the estimated closure costs, excluding regulatory changes and inflation adjustments, are anticipated to remain fairly consistent over the operational life of the facility.

The Company reviews the asset retirement obligation quarterly and performs a formal annual assessment of its estimates to determine if an adjustment to the value of the asset retirement obligation is required.

The laws of the State of Colorado require companies to meet environmental and asset retirement obligations by selecting an approved payment method.  The Company has elected to meet its obligation by making quarterly payments of approximately $4,700 into a trust that, over the expected lease period, will build liquid assets to meet the asset retirement obligation.  During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company made $9,400 of the required $14,100 of quarterly payments and in addition paid $1,300 required for an inflation adjustment.  The unpaid trust payment in the amount of $4,700 is included in accounts payable.  The balances in the trust account for the asset retirement obligation as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016 were $101,500 and $86,100, respectively.

("Black Creek").  Black Creek filed a complaint in the Maricopa County Superior Court against TSI and the Company, being Civil Case No. CV2011-014175, claiming various offsets from the purchase price, primarily concerning inventory adjustments, and TSI counterclaimed for monies due from Black Creek under the purchase agreement.  Following a trial during fiscal 2014, the court awarded a net judgment in favor of Black Creek in the amount of $16,800, plus attorney's fees and accrued interest, resulting in a total judgment in the amount of $128,300.  At June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an accrued liability of $128,300 for the judgment and had posted a bond with the court in conjunction with the Company's appeal of the judgment.  In May 2015, the State of Arizona Division One Court of Appeals vacated the trial court's damages award and remanded to the trial court to direct the parties to follow dispute guidelines defined in the asset purchase agreement.  In addition, the appellate court's decision vacated the trial court's attorney's fees award and awarded TSI approximately $21,900 of its fees on appeal.  At June 30, 2015, the Company reversed the accrual of $128,300 for the prior judgment.  Under the court's direction, the Company followed the dispute guidelines defined in the asset purchase agreement which resulted in an award to Black Creek of approximately $13,000.  The Company has previously stipulated that it owed Black Creek approximately $9,600 for shared expenses incurred from 2010 - 2011.  In October 2016, the court ruled on Black Creek's attorney's fees application and the Company's answer to said application.  The court granted Black Creek a fee award which, when combined with the judgment amount of approximately $22,600 plus interest, results in a potential liability to the Company of approximately $176,000 which has been accrued at March 31, 2017 and reported as a loss from discontinued operations in the nine month period.  The Company vehemently disagrees with Black Creek's attorney's fees claim and the Court ruling and is vigorously appealing the judgment.

The Company may from time to time be involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business.  As of March 31, 2017, other than the litigation discussed above, there was no other such litigation pending deemed material by the Company.

Note N – Liquidity and Going Concern

During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company reported a net loss of ($1,436,600) and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported a net loss of ($1,594,800).  The Company's fiscal 2017 and 2018 operating plans include divestiture of the undeveloped AES Indian Mesa site which is currently classified as Assets Held for Sale.  Management cannot assure that the sale of Indian Mesa will occur, which would provide additional cash flow to the Company.  The Company is continuing to analyze options to monetize current and future operations of Deer Creek, including a potential sale.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to execute options for Deer Creek.  The Company is developing alternative business plans for monetization of its resources.  Future business plans may require additional capital.  There is no assurance the Company will be able to raise additional financing which may be in the form of public or private debt or equity financing, or both.  If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company's business, operating results, financial condition and ability to continue operations may be materially adversely affected.   Management has historically been successful in obtaining financing and has demonstrated the ability to implement a number of cost-cutting initiatives to reduce working capital needs. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate and do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company's independent registered public accounting firm has included an emphasis of matter paragraph in their audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 discussing the substantial doubt of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Current Status of Deer Creek facility

The Deer Creek produced water disposal facility, located near Grand Junction, CO, became operational in August 2012 with annual evaporative capacity of approximately 300,000 barrels without using enhanced evaporation methods, providing some Piceance Basin producers with significant transportation cost savings compared to alternative water disposal sites.  Water deliveries have been negatively impacted by the falling market prices of oil and gas which significantly reduced drilling activities and fracking in the region and resulted in the temporary closing of many of the producing oil and gas wells in the area.  The Company is continuing to analyze options to monetize current and future operations of Deer Creek, including a potential sale.

Current Status of Indian Mesa facility

The permitting process for the Indian Mesa facility, located approximately 4 miles North West of the Deer Creek site, has been in process for a number of years with an initial County Use Permit issued in 2010 covering, among other things, evaporation ponds and land farming.  In December 2013, in response to an AES request to amend its County User Permit ("CUP"), the Mesa County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a new CUP for AES to construct and operate on its 160 acre Indian Mesa site evaporation ponds and/or landfill for disposal of solid oil and gas (O&G) waste, such as drill cuttings, tank bottoms, sock filters, etc.  The county approval also allows for solid and produced water disposal of Naturally-Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) and Technically Enhanced Naturally-Occurring Radioactive Materials (TENORM), and is in the permitting process with the State of Colorado.  In June 2014 AES received final construction approval from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) for twelve produced water disposal ponds.


20

ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 

The capacity of Indian Mesa is dependent on its type of development.  If 80 acres is developed as 12 ponds, the annual capacity at Indian Mesa for produced water, not considering enhanced evaporation, would be approximately 1 million barrels.  If the remaining 80 acres were developed into landfills, the capacity would be approximately 3 million cubic yards.  If the entire 160 acres were developed into landfill, the solid waste capacity would increase to approximately 8 million cubic yards.  Complete build-out of its Indian Mesa facility, including both landfill and evaporative ponds, would result in a unique Western Colorado "one stop shop" for all O&G waste products, including NORM and TENORM contaminated waste streams.  During fiscal year 2016, Alanco's Board of Directors approved a formal plan to sell Indian Mesa, consisting of land and associated permits.  Accordingly, the land and associated permit costs are being presented as "Assets Held for Sale" in the attached condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016.

Alanco Behavioral Health, Inc.

The Company formed Alanco Behavioral Health, Inc. ("ABH") during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, a wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated in the State of Arizona with the expectation of pursuing a business plan to consolidate small cap private behavioral health companies through acquisition.  The Company executed a letter of intent to purchase the operations of a behavioral health treatment facility located in California, but has since terminated said acquisition and currently has no plans to pursue acquisitions in the behavioral health market.

The Company is developing alternative business plans to monetize its resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions concerning the estimated fair value of stock-based compensation and detachable warrants, realization of deferred tax assets, collectability of accounts and notes receivable, estimated useful lives and carrying value of fixed assets, carrying value of assets held for sale, the recorded values of accruals and contingencies, the estimated fair values of the Company's asset retirement obligation and the contingent land and purchase price liabilities, and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  The result of these estimates and judgments form the basis for making conclusions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The SEC suggests that all registrants discuss their most "critical accounting policies" in Management's Discussion and Analysis.  A critical accounting policy is one which is both important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and operating results and requires management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  Management has identified the critical accounting policies as those accounting policies that affect its more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.  The Company's Audit Committee has reviewed and approved the critical accounting policies identified.  These policies include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, estimated useful lives and carrying value of fixed assets, classification of assets held for sale, the recorded values of accruals and fair values of assets and liabilities including the Company's contingent liabilities.


21

ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
Revenue Recognition
The Company uses four factors to determine the appropriate timing of revenue recognition.  Three of these factors are generally factual considerations that are not subject to material estimates (evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been performed and the fee is determinable).  The fourth factor includes judgment regarding the collectability of the sales price.  The Company's written arrangement with customers establishes payment terms and the Company only enters into arrangements when it has reasonable assurance that it will receive payment from the customer.  The assessment of a customer's credit-worthiness is reliant on management's judgment on factors such as credit references and market reputation.  If any sales are made that become uncollectible, the Company establishes a reserve for the uncollectible amount.  Any sales tax for which the Company is responsible is recorded as a reduction of the associated revenue.

Estimated Useful Lives and Carrying Value of Fixed Assets
The Company values fixed assets based on cost and depreciates fixed assets based on estimated useful lives using the straight-line method, generally over a 3 to 20 year period.  Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated and a gain or loss is recorded in the statement of operations.  The Company analyzes the carrying value of fixed assets by reviewing income projections and undiscounted cash flows which include assumptions based on current market conditions for anticipated revenues and expenses.  These assumptions are reasonably likely to change in the future based on changing markets, which may have a material effect on the carrying value or useful life.
 
Classification and Estimated Carrying Value of Assets Held for Sale
The Company reclassifies assets as held for sale based on meeting the criteria for the classification including approval of a formal plan to sell assets by the Company's Board of Directors.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Board of Directors approved a formal plan to sell the Indian Mesa land and associated permits and therefore the Company has classified the assets as Assets Held for Sale.  A long-lived asset classified as held for sale shall be measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  The value of Assets Held for Sale represents the carrying amount.  The Company continues to actively pursue a sale of the assets, however, due to the depressed oil and gas prices the market in Western Colorado was negatively impacted and a sale has been prolonged.  As a result, the Company has classified the Assets Held for Sale as non-current as of March 31, 2017.

Recorded Values of Accruals
The Company makes accruals for contingent liabilities based on reasonable estimates for known or anticipated obligations.  Estimates may be based on known inputs, experience with similar situations, or anticipated outcomes.  Estimates for the Company's asset retirement obligation, contingent land and purchase price liabilities are determined at discrete points in time based upon unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists that is significant to the fair value of the liability, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.  Estimates for the asset retirement obligation were developed by a consultant knowledgeable about the State of Colorado regulatory requirements and use vendor estimates for the various activities required for the closure of the Deer Creek facility.  Estimates for the contingent land and purchase price liabilities were determined based on projected income, cash flows and capital expenditures for the Deer Creek and Indian Mesa facilities under current plans.

Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities
The Company estimates fair values for assets and liabilities at certain points in time based on information known at that time using the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") and recognizes transfers as they occur.  The ASC uses a three level hierarchy:  Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets, Level 2 – observable inputs, other than quoted prices included with Level 1, and Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists that are significant to the fair value.  The asset retirement obligation and contingent payments discussed above use Level 3 inputs as do the estimated useful lives and carrying value of fixed assets.

Results of Operations

Presented below is management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the periods indicated:

(A)
Three months ended March 31, 2017 versus three months ended March 31, 2016

Net Revenues
Net revenues reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 were $700 compared to $13,800 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of $13,100, or 94.9%.  Revenues are comprised of produced water delivery fees and sales of reclaimed oil (net of associated taxes).  Revenues were negatively impacted by the falling market prices of oil and gas which significantly reduced drilling activities and fracking in the region and resulted in the temporary closing of many of the producing oil and gas wells in the area.  The Company anticipates the revenues will return as oil and gas pricing improves.

Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were $81,300 and $114,800, respectively, a decrease of $33,500 or 29.2% when comparing the periods.  Cost of revenues consists of direct labor costs, equipment costs (including depreciation), land lease costs, pond maintenance and other operating costs.  The decrease is primarily due to lower variable costs as a result of decreased revenues and includes labor costs, fees tied to water volumes, pond maintenance and fuel costs.  Fixed costs such as depreciation, amortization, accretion and lease costs represent approximately 76% and 54% of the cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The gross loss for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was ($80,600) and ($101,000) respectively, a reduction of $20,400, or 20.2% when comparing the periods.  The improvement in the current three month period is primarily due to a reduction of variable costs offset by decreased revenues.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 (consisting of corporate expenses and AES selling, general and administrative expense) was $532,600, an increase of $304,500, or 133.5%, compared to $228,100 reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  The SG&A included an impairment charge of $350,000 recorded to reduce the carrying value of the Company's Deer Creek facility assets to the estimated fair value.  The estimated fair value is subject to material change based on information known at certain points in time and estimate revisions could occur in the near term.  Without this charge, the SG&A for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 would have been $182,600, a decrease of $45,500, or 19.9% when compared to the $228,100 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  Corporate expenses for the current quarter was $58,500 and represented a decrease of $15,000, or 20.4%, compared to corporate expenses of $73,500 reported for the comparable quarter ended March 31, 2016.  The decreased costs primarily relate to professional services for legal and investor relations.  AES expense of $124,100 for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared to $154,600 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 reflects a decrease of $30,500 or 19.7% when comparing the two periods and is primarily related to a decrease in management fees for operations of the Deer Creek Water Disposal facility.
 
Operating Loss
Operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was ($613,200), an increase of $284,100, or 86.3%, compared to an Operating Loss of ($329,100) reported for the same quarter of the prior year.  The increase is primarily due to the $350,000 impairment charge mentioned above.  Without this charge, operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 would have been ($263,200), a decrease of $65,900, or 20.0%, compared to an Operating Loss of ($329,100) reported for the same quarter of the prior year and is attributable to the reduced gross loss and reduced selling, general and administrative expenses in the quarter ended March 31, 2017 when compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2016 as discussed above.


23

ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
Other Income and Expense
Interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $0, when compared to interest income of $7,100 for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  ACC has not made interest payments for amounts billed during the current quarter, therefore, the Company has fully reserved the unpaid amount.

Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $18,400.  There was no interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.  The interest in the current period primarily includes interest on the line of credit with the Anderson Family Trust entered into in June 2016, as well as amortization of associated loan costs and amortization of the value of detachable warrants.

Net Loss
Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 amounted to ($631,600), or ($0.13) per share, compared to net loss of ($322,000), or ($0.06) per share, in the comparable quarter of the prior year for reasons previously discussed. 

 
(B)
Nine months ended March 31, 2017 versus nine months ended March 31, 2016

Net Revenues
Net revenues reported for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 were $10,400 compared to $185,900 for March 31, 2016, a decrease of $175,500, or 94.4%.  Revenues are comprised of produced water delivery fees and sales of reclaimed oil (net of associated taxes).  Revenues were negatively impacted by the falling market prices of oil and gas which significantly reduced drilling activities and fracking in the region and resulted in the temporary closing of many of the producing oil and gas wells in the area.  The Company anticipates the revenues will return as oil and gas prices improve.

Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 were $256,700 as compared to $507,400 for the same nine month period of the prior year, a decrease of $250,700, or 49.4%, when comparing the two periods.  Cost of revenues consists of direct labor costs, equipment costs (including depreciation), land lease costs, pond maintenance and other operating costs.  The decrease is primarily due to lower variable costs as a result of decreased revenues and includes labor costs, fees tied to water volumes, pond maintenance costs and fuel costs.  Fixed costs such as depreciation, amortization, accretion and lease costs represent approximately 72.5% and 35.7% of the cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.   The gross loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was ($246,300) and ($321,500), respectively.  The improvement in the current nine month period is primarily due to a reduction of variable costs offset by decreased revenues.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 (consisting of corporate expenses, AES selling, general and administrative expense, and stock-based compensation) was $974,800, an increase of $204,400, or 26.5%, compared to $770,400 reported for the nine months ended March 31, 2016.  The SG&A included an impairment charge of $350,000 recorded to reduce the carrying value of the Company's Deer Creek facility assets to the estimated fair value.  The estimated fair value is subject to material change based on information known at certain points in time and estimate revisions could occur in the near term.  Without this charge, the SG&A for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 would have been $624,800, a decrease of $145,600, or 18.9% when compared to the $770,400 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016.  Corporate expenses for the nine month period ended March 31, 2017 was $235,500 and represented a decrease of $39,200, or 14.3%, compared to corporate expenses of $274,700 reported for the comparable nine months ended March 31, 2016.  The net decrease is reflective of an increase in corporate development costs incurred in pursuit of the behavioral health acquisition offset by a decrease in professional fees and a reserve that was recorded against the Company's Note Receivable in the same period of the prior year.  AES operating expense was $389,300 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $467,900 for the same nine month period of the prior year, a decrease of $78,600, or 16.8%, which is primarily due to a decrease in management fees for operations of the Deer Creek Water Disposal facility.  Stock-based compensation during the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was $0, a decrease of $27,800, or 100%, compared to $27,800 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, which included stock grants issued to the Company's directors.

24

ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 

Operating Loss
Operating Loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was ($1,221,100), an increase of $129,200, or 11.8%, compared to an Operating Loss of ($1,091,900) reported for the same period of the prior year.  The increase is primarily due to the $350,000 impairment charge mentioned above.  Without this charge, operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was ($871,100), a decrease of $220,800, or 20.2%, compared to an Operating Loss of ($1,091,900) reported for the same nine months of the prior year and is attributable to lower gross profit and lower selling, general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended March 31, 2017 when compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2016 as discussed above.

Other Income and Expense
Interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was $4,800, a decrease of $17,000, or 78.0%, when compared to interest income of $21,800 for the same period ended March 31, 2016. ACC has not made interest payments totaling $16,300 during the nine month period, therefore, the Company did not record interest income for those amounts.  As a result, there is a decrease in interest income for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the same period of the prior year.

Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was $44,700 compared to $0 for the nine months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $44,700, or 100%.  The interest in the current period includes interest on the line of credit with the Anderson Family Trust entered into in June 2016, as well as amortization of associated loan costs and amortization of the value of detachable warrants.

Loss From Continuing Operations
The loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was ($1,260,600), an increase of $190,500, or 17.8%, compared to a loss from continuing operations of ($1,070,100) reported for the same nine months of the prior year.  The increase is primarily due to the $350,000 impairment charge mentioned above.  Without this charge, loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 would have been ($910,600), a decrease of $159,500, or 14.9%, when compared to a loss from continuing operations of ($1,070,100) for the nine months ended March 31, 2016 and is attributable to the reduced gross loss combined with the reduced selling, general and administrative expense, offset by an increase in interest expense during the current nine months as compared to the same nine months of the prior year.

Loss From Discontinued Operations
During the nine months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded an accrual of $176,000 related to the judgment received from litigation whereby the Company is a defendant and counterclaimant involving the Company's former subsidiary known as Alanco/TSI PRISM, Inc. ("TSI") and purchaser of TSI's assets, Black Creek Systems Corp.

Net Loss
Net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 amounted to ($1,436,600), or ($0.29) per share, compared to a net loss of ($1,070,100), or ($0.21) per share, in the comparable period of the prior year for reasons previously discussed.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's current liabilities at March 31, 2017 exceeded current assets by ($1,344,100), resulting in a current ratio of .2 to 1.  At June 30, 2016, current assets exceeded current liabilities by $1,449,500 reflecting a current ratio of 4.6 to 1.  The reduction in net current assets at March 31, 2017 versus June 30, 2016 was due primarily to a reduction in cash balances, a reclassification of the assets held for sale and an increase to accrued expenses and note payable - current.
25

ALANCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
 
Cash used in operations for the nine month period ended March 31, 2017 was ($693,800), a decrease of $10,200, or 1.4% compared to the ($704,000) reported for the same period of the prior year.  The decrease in net cash used in operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 was due primarily to an increase in the change in accounts payable and accrued expenses, offset by an increase in operating loss and the change in prepaid expenses and other assets.
 
 Cash provided by investing activities for the nine month period ended March 31, 2017 was $5,300, a decrease of $15,300 when compared to the $20,600 provided by investing activities for the same period of the prior year.  The decrease was primarily due to lower proceeds from the repayment of note receivable during the period offset by a decrease in the purchase of land, property and equipment and proceeds from the sale of equipment as compared to the prior year.  Purchases of land, property and equipment include permitting costs for the Deer Creek facility.

Cash provided by financing activities was $550,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017 and represents proceeds from the Company's line of credit with the Anderson Family Trust.  There was no cash provided or used by financing activities for the nine month period ended March 31, 2016.

The Company's fiscal year 2017 and 2018 operating plan includes divestiture of the undeveloped AES Indian Mesa land and associated permits, which is currently classified as Assets Held for Sale.  Management cannot assure that the sale of Indian Mesa will occcur, which would provide additional cash flow to the Company.  The Company is continuing to analyze options to monetize current and future operations of Deer Creek.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to execute options for Deer Creek. The Company recently announced it was entering the behavioral health market and the business plan included the acquisition of behavioral health businesses.  The Company has since terminated the business development activities related to behavioral health and has no plans to pursue acquisitions in that market.  The Company is developing alterative business plans for investment of its resources.  Future business plans may require additional capital.  There is no assurance the Company will be able to raise additional financing which may be in the form of public or private debt or equity financing, or both.  If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company's business, operating results, financial condition and ability to continue operations may be materially adversely affected.   Management has historically been successful in obtaining financing and has demonstrated the ability to implement a number of cost-cutting initiatives to reduce working capital needs.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  As a result, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm included an emphasis of matter paragraph regarding an uncertainty about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in their audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 which is further discussed in the Company's Form 10-K for that period.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Legal Proceedings - The Company is a defendant and counterclaimant in litigation involving its former subsidiary known as Alanco/TSI Prism, Inc. ("TSI") and the purchaser of TSI's assets, Black Creek Integrated Systems Corp. ("Black Creek").  Black Creek filed a complaint in the Maricopa County Superior Court against TSI and the Company, being Civil Case No. CV2011-014175, claiming various offsets from the purchase price, primarily concerning inventory adjustments, and TSI counterclaimed for monies due from Black Creek under the purchase agreement.  Following a trial during fiscal 2014, the court awarded a net judgment in favor of Black Creek in the amount of $16,800, plus attorney's fees and accrued interest, resulting in a total judgment in the amount of $128,300.  At June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an accrued liability of $128,300 for the judgment and had posted a bond with the court in conjunction with the Company's appeal of the judgment.  In May 2015, the State of Arizona Division One Court of Appeals vacated the trial court's damages award and remanded to the trial court to direct the parties to follow dispute guidelines defined in the asset purchase agreement.  In addition, the appellate court's decision vacated the trial court's attorney's fees award and awarded TSI approximately $21,900 of its fees on appeal.  At June 30, 2015, the Company reversed the accrual of $128,300 for the prior judgment.  Under the court's direction, the Company followed the dispute guidelines defined in the asset purchase agreement which resulted in an award to Black Creek of approximately $13,000.  The Company has previously stipulated that it owed Black Creek approximately $9,600 for shared expenses incurred from 2010 - 2011.  In October 2016, the court ruled on Black Creek's attorney's fees application and the Company's answer to said application.  The court granted Black Creek a fee award which, when combined with the judgment amount of approximately $22,600 plus interest, results in a potential liability to the Company of approximately $176,000 which has been accrued at March 31, 2017 and reported as a loss from discontinued operations in the nine month period.  The Company vehemently disagrees with Black Creek's attorney's fees claim and the Court ruling and is vigorously appealing the judgment.

The Company may from time to time be involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business.  As of March 31, 2017, there was no other such litigation pending deemed material by the Company.
