INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT OF REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders of
DragonWave Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements ofDragonWave Inc., which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at February 28, 2014 and February 28, 2013, and the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended February 28, 2014, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management's responsibility for the consolidated financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors' responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors' judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DragonWave Inc. as at February 28, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended February 28, 2014 in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Other matter
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), DragonWave's internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2014, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 Framework) and our report dated May 14, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on DragonWave Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of:
DragonWave Inc.
We have audited DragonWave Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 Framework) (the COSO criteria). DragonWave Inc.'s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying reports from management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, DragonWave Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2014 based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of DragonWave Inc. as at February 28, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended February 28, 2014 of DragonWave Inc. and our report dated May 14, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Expressed in US $000's except share and per share amounts
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
DragonWave Inc. [the "Company"], incorporated under theCanada Business Corporations Act in February 2000, is a provider of high-capacity packet microwave solutions that drive next-generation IP networks.
The Company's common shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol DWI and on NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol DRWI.
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries: DragonWave Corp., incorporated in the state of Delaware, USA, DragonWave PTE. LTD., incorporated in Singapore, DragonWave S.r.l, incorporated in Italy, DragonWave S.a r.l., incorporated in Luxembourg, DragonWave Comericio de Equipamentos De Telecommunicacao Ltda., incorporated in Brazil, DragonWave Telecommunication Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., incorporated in China, DragonWave Mexico S.A. de C.V., incorporated in Mexico, Axerra Networks Asia Pacific Limited, incorporated in Hong Kong, and DragonWave Inc.'s majority owned subsidiary, DragonWave HFCL India Private Ltd. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in United States dollars following United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ["U.S. GAAP"].
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as at February 28, 2014 and 2013 and the results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity for the years ended February 28, 2014 and 2013.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of accounting estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Actual results could differ from the estimates made by management.
The following include estimates by management: allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory allocations, inventory provisions, accrued liabilities, warranty provisions, warrant liability, tax valuation allowance, impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, vendor specific objective evidence, estimated selling price and estimated returns as it relates to revenue recognition, and stock-based compensation.
These estimates and assumptions are based on management's historical experience, best knowledge of current events and conditions and actions that the Company may undertake in the future. Certain of these estimates require subjective or complex judgments by management about matters that are uncertain and changes in those estimates could materially impact the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
Foreign currency translation
The Company's operations and balances denominated in foreign currencies, including those of its foreign subsidiaries which are considered financially and operationally integrated, are translated into US dollars (USD) using the following: monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the period end exchange rate, non-monetary assets are translated at the historical exchange rate, and revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate. Gains or losses resulting from the translation adjustments are included in income (loss).

Expressed in US $000's except share and per share amounts
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
In the prior year, the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment included under accumulated other comprehensive loss within shareholders' equity on the consolidated balance sheets related to the Company's adoption of USD as the functional and reporting currency which was effective March 1, 2010 and unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses of our self-sustaining foreign subsidiary which were translated into USD using the current rate method. Under the current rate method, assets and liabilities were translated at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses were translated at the average exchange rate prevailing during the period.
Revenue recognition
The Company derives revenue from the sale of broadband wireless backhaul equipment which includes embedded software and a license to use said software and extended product warranties. Software is considered to be incidental to the product. Services range from installation and training to basic consulting. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and there are no significant remaining vendor obligations, collection of receivables is reasonably assured and the fee is fixed and determinable. Where final acceptance of the product is specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until acceptance criteria have been met.
The Company's business agreements may also contain multiple elements. Accordingly, the Company is required to determine the appropriate accounting, including whether the deliverables specified in a multiple element arrangement should be treated as separate units of accounting for revenue recognition purposes, the fair value of these separate units of accounting and when to recognize revenue for each element. For arrangements involving multiple elements, the Company allocates revenues to each element based on a selling price hierarchy. The selling price for a deliverable is based on its vendor specific objective evidence ("VSOE") if available, third party evidence ("TPE") if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price ("ESP") if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. In multiple element arrangements, revenues are allocated to each separate unit of accounting for each of the deliverables using the relative selling prices of each of the deliverables in the arrangement based on the aforementioned selling price hierarchy. The Company has determined the selling price for both the undelivered items and the delivered items using ESP.
The Company generates revenue through direct sales and sales to distributors. The Company defers the recognition of a portion of sales to distributors based on estimated stock rotation granted to customers on products in the same period the related revenues are recorded. These estimates are based on historical sales returns; stock rotations and other known factors.
Revenue associated with extended warranty and advanced replacement warranty is recognized ratably over the life of the contracted service.
Revenue from engineering services or development agreements is recognized according to the specific terms and acceptance criteria as services are rendered.
The Company accrues estimated potential product liability as warranty costs when revenue on the sale of equipment is recognized. Warranty costs are calculated on a percentage of revenue per month based on current actual warranty costs and return experience.
Shipping and handling costs borne by the Company are recorded in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are recorded as revenue, if billed at the time of shipment. Costs charged to customers after delivery are recorded in cost of sales.
The Company generates revenue through royalty agreements as a result of the use of its Intellectual Property. Royalty revenue is recognized as it is earned.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Financial instruments
The Company classifies its financial instruments as assets held at fair value, loans and receivables, other financial liabilities, or liabilities held at fair value. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were acquired, their characteristics and management's intent. Management determines the classification of financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition and the classification is not changed subsequent to initial recognition.
The Company designated its cash and cash equivalents, contingent receivables and foreign exchange contracts as assets held at fair value which are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value being recorded in net earnings. Trade receivables and other receivables have been classified as loans and receivables which are measured at amortized cost. Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, debt facility and lease obligations have been classified as other financial liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost. Liabilities held at fair value include the warrant liability and contingent liabilities which are measured at fair value, with changes in fair value being recorded in net earnings.
Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets are recorded in net loss in the period in which they are incurred.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value ["NRV"]. The cost of inventory is calculated on a standard cost basis, which approximates average actual cost. NRV is determined as the market value for finished goods, replacement cost for raw materials, and finished goods market value less cost to complete for work in progress inventory.
We regularly review inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based on factors including our estimated forecast of product demand, the stage of the product life cycle and production requirements for the units in question.
We carry inventory for the purposes of supporting our product warranty. Standard warranty is typically 13 months but we earn revenue by providing enhanced and extended warranty and repair service during and beyond the standard warranty period. Customer service inventory consists of both component parts and finished units.
Indirect manufacturing costs and direct labour expenses are allocated systematically to the total production inventory.
Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the tax and accounting basis of assets and liabilities as well as for the benefit of losses available to be carried forward to future years for tax purposes that are more likely than not to be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary

differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company provides a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets when it believes that it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized.
The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that an uncertain tax position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. The tax benefit of any uncertain tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is calculated as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon successful resolution. To the extent a full benefit is not expected to be realized, an income tax liability is effectively established. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense.
Management periodically reviews the Company's provision for income taxes and valuation allowance to determine whether the overall tax estimates are reasonable. When management performs its quarterly assessments of the provision and valuation allowance, it may be determined that an adjustment is required. This adjustment may have a material impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the anticipated useful lives of the assets as follows:
| | |
Test equipment | | 4 years |
Research and development equipment | | 5 years |
Computer hardware | | 2 years |
Production fixtures | | 3 years |
Leasehold improvements | | 5 years |
Furniture and fixtures | | 5 years |
Communication equipment | | 3 years |
Other | | 3 - 5 years |
Management evaluates the carrying value of its property and equipment assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. To the extent the estimated undiscounted future net cash inflows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. The amount of impairment loss to be recorded is the difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value.
Goodwill and intangible assets
Intangible assets include computer software, infrastructure systems software, and customer relationships and are amortized over their estimated useful lives of 2 years, 3 years, and 3 years, respectively. Management evaluates the carrying value of its intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. To the extent the estimated undiscounted future net cash inflows attributable to the asset are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. The amount of impairment loss to be recorded is the difference between the asset's carrying value and the net discounted estimated future cash flows.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired in business combinations. The Company reviews the carrying value of goodwill on an annual basis or more frequently if circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the goodwill is below its carrying amount. The goodwill impairment test is a three-step process which requires

management to make judgmental assumptions regarding fair value. The first step in the impairment test is to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the subsequent two steps of the goodwill impairment test. The second step consists of estimating the fair value of our reporting unit. When the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not to be impaired and the third step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, the Company compares the implied fair value of the goodwill, determined as if a purchase had just occurred, to the carrying amount to determine the amount of impairment charge to be recorded. Changes in the estimates and assumptions used in assessing the projected cash flows could materially affect the results of management's evaluation.
Contingent receivables and liabilities
In the event of an acquisition or other business combination, the Company identifies any contingent receivables and liabilities and recognizes the fair value of those receivables and liabilities based on the discounted expected cash inflows and outflows. Subsequent to the initial recognition and until the receivables and liabilities are settled, cancelled or expire, the Company accretes the instruments using the initial discount rate.
Subsequently, the Company amortizes the liability and asset into change in estimate based on the forecasted sales over the liability's expected life and reduces the asset based on actual activity. The instruments are assessed for fair value on a quarterly basis.
Stock option plan and employee share purchase plan
The Company has a stock option plan and an employee share purchase plan which is described in note 14. The Company accounts for stock options granted to employees using the fair value method. In accordance with the fair value method, the Company recognizes estimated compensation expense related to stock options over the vesting period of the options granted, with the related credit being charged to contributed surplus.
The Company launched an employee share purchase plan on October 20, 2008. The plan includes provisions to allow employees to purchase Common shares. The Company will match the employees' contribution at a rate of 25%. Proceeds from employees are received and the cost of the matching shares are recorded in share capital, with the related debit applied to contributed surplus at the time the shares are issued. The shares contributed by the Company will vest 12 months after issuance with a corresponding compensation expense recognized in income (loss).
Expenses
The Company defines general and administrative expenses to be administrative, finance, and operational costs. Selling and marketing expenses are defined as costs related to worldwide sales, marketing and product management. Research and development costs are defined as costs related to research and development related activities.
Research and development
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development costs are expensed as incurred unless they meet generally accepted accounting criteria for deferral and amortization. Development costs incurred prior to establishment of technological feasibility do not meet these criteria, and are expensed as incurred.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES ADOPTED IN THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities," which creates new disclosure requirements about the nature of an entity's rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods therein, with retrospective application required. The new disclosures are designed to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards. The adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities" ("ASU 2013-01"), which clarifies that the scope of ASU 2011-11 applies to derivatives accounted for in accordance with ASU Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Topic 220 – Comprehensive Income: Reporting of Amounts Reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2013-02"). ASU 2013-02 changes the presentation requirements of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income in their entirety and their corresponding effect on net income. For other significant amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety, the standard requires the Company to cross-reference to related footnote disclosures. ASU 2013-02 became effective for the Company on March 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES
Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment Upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets Within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, "Foreign Currency Matters." ASU 2013-05 resolves the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation-Overall, or Subtopic 830-30 "Foreign Currency Matters, Translation of Financial Statements", ASU 2013-05 applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity. In addition, the amendments in ASU 2013-05 resolve the diversity in practice for the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages (sometimes also referred to as step acquisitions) involving a foreign entity. ASU 2013-05 became effective for the Company prospectively for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Obligations Resulting From Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, "Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date" ("ASU 2013-04"). ASU 2013-04 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this ASU is fixed at the reporting date. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors as well as any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. ASU 2013-04 also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of those obligations. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is required. The adoption of ASU 2013-04 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists
In June 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists" ("ASU 2013-11"). The amendments provide guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits and will better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. Prospective application is required. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Nokia Solutions and Networks' Microwave Transport Business
On June 1, 2012 the Company announced the closing of the acquisition of the microwave transport business of Nokia Siemens Networks (whose name was changed to Nokia Solutions and Networks, also referred to as NSN, in August 2013 in connection with the acquisition of Nokia Corporation of Siemen's 50% stake in Nokia Siemens Networks, was recently renamed Networks and now operates under the Nokia brand, and is referred to herein as "Nokia" or "Nokia's Networks business"), including its associated operational support system (OSS) and related support functions. The acquisition was effected pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master Acquisition Agreement between DragonWave Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary DragonWave S.à.r.l and Nokia dated May 3, 2012. The terms "Nokia" or "Nokia's Networks business" are used interchangeably herein to refer to Nokia Solutions Networks or NSN.

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (Continued)
The Purchase Price consisted of the following components: a) cash delivered on closing; b) 2,000,978 common shares delivered on closing with a fair value of $5,279 which reflects that Nokia is subject to a lock-up provision restricting sale or disposition of the shares, subject to customary exceptions; c) other consideration deferred for specific tangible assets; d) a contingent receivable based on business performance in the twelve months following closing.
The Company allocated $12,545 to intangible assets, including customer relationships and developed technology based on their fair values at the date of purchase. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of three, and six years, respectively. The useful lives of the intangible assets were determined as the period of time over which the assets are anticipated to contribute to the Company's future cash flows. None of the intangible assets are deductible for tax purposes.
The Company recognized a one-time gain on purchase of business of $19,397 in the year ended February 28, 2013 due to the difference between the cumulative tangible and intangible net assets and the purchase price.
The primary reason for the acquisition relates to the strategic position with Nokia which positions DragonWave for future growth as well as the acquisition of a technology suite backed by service and support, and further bolsters the Company's ability to participate in the growth in LTE networks worldwide. Management believes that the Company recognized a gain on the purchase of a business as a result of: a) its existing relationship with NSN (now Nokia's Networks business) which positioned the Company more strategically to the seller than other potential acquirers; b) access to the liquidity necessary to complete the acquisition; and c) the prevailing economic and market environment.
The Amended and Restated Master Acquisition Agreement entered into on May 3, 2012 included an arrangement with NSN (now Nokia) for additional consideration that is contingent on actual sales of products achieved in the first eighteen months subsequent to the acquisition date. The fair value represents the discounted, most probable net amount to be received by the Company. During the year ended February 28, 2013 the Company has increased the contingent receivable balance, based on a change in fair value, and recognized a gain of $5,416 in the consolidated statement of operations as a result of business performance subsequent to the acquisition date. Due to payments received, foreign exchange translation and accretion of the relative discounts, which represents a net decrease of $2,135, the contingent receivable balance being carried on the balance sheet as at February 28, 2013 is $13,843.
On April 10, 2013, the Company announced changes to its existing operational framework with NSN (now Nokia). In line with the renewed framework, the Company will continue to be the preferred, strategic supplier to NSN (now Nokia) of packet microwave and related products, and the companies will jointly coordinate technology development activities.
Under the terms of the renewed framework, on April 12, 2013, NSN (now Nokia) paid $13,843 to the Company which settled the balance of the Company's contingent receivable. NSN (now Nokia) took on additional commitments and costs so that DragonWave can continue to develop and supply microwave products. The Italian services agreement, pursuant to which NSN (now Nokia) has provided research & development and certain other services to DragonWave since June 1, 2012, was terminated. As a result, the Company reduced accounts payable by $13,258. Capital assets with a net book value of $628 and the corresponding capital lease obligation associated with the Italian operations in the amount of $1,323 was also eliminated by the Company. During the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company also reduced a capital lease obligation associated with its operations in India by $417 based on a revised agreement.

The Company also recorded a liability included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, based on management's estimate, for a termination fee of $8,668 to be paid in several tranches. The estimate recorded is subject to measurement uncertainty as to the timing and amount that could have a material impact on the Company's financial statements should actual results differ from management's estimate.
The net impact of these items resulted in a gain of $5,702 in the consolidated statement of operations in the year ended February 28, 2014.
During the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company reduced its estimated liability for the termination fee based on a change in estimate. The Company has also reduced an accrued liability that was recorded upon the acquisition of the microwave transport business of NSN (now Nokia) which was based on a change in estimate. The net impact of these items resulted in a gain in change of estimate of $2,970 in the statement of operations in the year ended February 28, 2014.
Disposition of DragonWave Limited
On January 22, 2013, the Company sold all of its shares of DragonWave Ltd ("DWL"), incorporated in Israel. The shares were sold for a nominal amount. Under the share purchase agreement, the Company has a liability to pay certain future obligations. During the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company reduced the contingent liability by $342 based on a change in circumstance which is included in the consolidated statement of operations as a change in estimate. As at February 14, 2014, the Company has extinguished both the discounted liability [2013 – $1,011] and the maximum potential liability [2013 – $1,328].
Also, under the terms of a supply and services agreement, the Company has an opportunity to earn an additional $5,068 [2013 – $5,271] based on business performance subsequent to the disposition for which the Company has recorded a receivable of $52 [2013 – $583] which represents management's estimate of the amounts to be collected based on the discounted forecasted future cash inflows. A reduction in the receivable of $553 was included in the consolidated statement of operations as a change in estimate.
The net book value of the assets of DWL was $2,399 at the date of sale and as such the Company had recorded in the previous fiscal year, after consideration of both the discounted liability of $1,011 and the receivable of $583, a net loss on sale of assets in the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $2,827.

For the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company recognized amortization of intangible assets of $1,900 [2013 – $3,748]. The Company estimates that it will recognize $1,443 and $192 respectively for the next two succeeding years.
During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Company performed analyses of its intangible assets in order to determine whether the carrying value of those assets exceeded the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use or disposition of those assets. Based upon these analyses, the Company determined that the carrying value of its Customer Relationship and Developed Technology intangible assets were in excess of the relative estimated future cash flows expected to result from their use or disposition. In each case where the fair value of the asset was less than the carrying value, the Company wrote the asset down to its fair value and recorded a corresponding impairment charge. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge related to intangible assets of $13,812 during the year ended February 28, 2013. During the year ended February 28, 2013, the Company sold intangible assets with a cost base of $14,525 and a net book value, after impairments and amortization, of nil.
The goodwill impairment test is a three-step process which requires the Company to make assumptions regarding fair value. The first step in the impairment test is to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Because the Company impaired some intangible

assets with finite lives, the Company believed there were qualitative factors in-place that would suggest that the two-step goodwill impairment test would need to be performed. The second step consisted of calculating the fair value of our reporting unit. The Company used both a market based approach and an estimate of discounted future cash flows.
In applying the market based approach the Company calculated its market capitalization using values from a reasonable time period around the date of the impairment test. The Company applied a control premium that was identified using recent comparable transactions.
In applying the discounted cash flow methodology, the Company relies on a number of factors, including future business plans, actual and forecasted operating results, and market data. The significant assumptions employed under this method include discount rates; revenue growth rates, including assumed terminal growth rates; and operating margins used to project future cash flows for a reporting unit. The discount rates utilized reflect market based estimates of capital costs and discount rates adjusted for management's assessment of a market participant's view with respect to other risks associated with the projected cash flows of the individual reporting unit. Management estimates are based upon assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but which, by nature, are uncertain and unpredictable.
The annual goodwill impairment analysis for fiscal 2014, performed as at August 31, 2013, did not result in any impairment loss.

As at February 28, 2014, the Company had cumulative tax loss carryforwards in the following jurisdictions: Canada – $89,914, United States – $8,271, Luxembourg – $54,469. The Company also has capital losses being carried forward in the following jurisdictions: Canada – $16,302; United States – $45,543.
The losses in Canada expire starting in Fiscal 2029 until Fiscal 2032. The losses in Luxembourg can be carried forward indefinitely. Income tax benefits relating to the losses in Canada and Luxembourg have not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements as the recognition requirements under the liability method of accounting for income taxes have not been met.
The losses in the U.S. expire between 2022 and 2032. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 imposes an annual limitation on the use of a company's net operating loss carryforwards when a company has an ownership change. The acquisition of Axerra Networks, Inc. by the Company resulted in an ownership change as understood by Section 382. As a result, the annual restriction of the amount of losses of Axerra Networks, Inc. that may be used has been calculated as $521.
As at February 28, 2014, the Company had $15,586, of investment tax credits available to reduce future federal Canadian income taxes payable. These investment tax credits begin to expire in 2022. In addition, the Company had provincial research and development tax credits of $2,550, which are available to reduce future provincial income taxes payable. These provincial tax credits begin to expire in 2029. The tax benefit of the federal and provincial tax credits has not been recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
As of February 28, 2014, the Company has not recorded any liabilities associated with unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company remains subject to examination by tax authorities in Canada for tax years 2006 to 2013 and in the United States for tax years 2010 to 2013.
No deferred income taxes have been provided on undistributed earnings or relating to cash held in foreign jurisdictions, as the Company has determined that any income or withholding taxes on repatriation would not be significant.

The following table summarizes the carrying values of the Company's financial instruments:
| | | | | | | |

- (4)

Fair value
The Company classifies its fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements. The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs fall into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
Cash and cash equivalents are measured using Level 1 inputs.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
The Company's foreign exchange forward contracts are classified within Level 2 as they are based on foreign currency rates quoted by banks and other public data source. The fair values of the foreign exchange forward contracts are based upon the difference between the forward exchange rate and the contract rate with expected cash flows and effect on the consolidated statements of operations expected to occur upon settlement;
The Company's contingent receivable and contingent liabilities which have been measured using a Level 3 input, a discounted cash flow model that values the underlying assets and liabilities based on expected timing of payments and receipts;
The warrant liability is classified as Level 3. The Company used a Monte-Carlo Simulation model to estimate the fair value of the warrants. Significant assumptions used at February 28, 2014 for the warrants include a dividend yield of 0%, a 1% assumption that the fundamental transaction will happen every year, volatility of 60%, and a risk free spot rate term structure;

Interest rate risk

excluding deferring financing costs, recognized during the year ended February 28, 2014 was $1,128 on the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and debt facility [2013 – Expense of $1,215].
Credit risk
In addition to trade receivables and other receivables, the Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash in the event that its counterparties do not meet their obligations. The Company does not use credit derivatives or similar instruments to mitigate this risk and, as such, the maximum exposure is the full carrying value or fair value of the financial instrument. The Company minimizes credit risk on cash and cash equivalents by transacting with only reputable financial institutions and customers.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises because of fluctuations in exchange rates. To mitigate exchange risk, the Company may utilize forward contracts to secure exchange rates with the objective of offsetting fluctuations in our operating expenses incurred in foreign currencies with gains or losses on the forward contracts. Our foreign exchange forward contracts mature in March 2014 and have a notional value of $1,242. During the year ended February 28, 2014, the Company recorded approximately $19 of gains related to its foreign exchange forward contracts. Our foreign exchange forward contracts are over-the-counter instruments. All foreign currency gains and losses related to forward contracts are included in foreign exchange gain (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations.
As of February 28, 2014, if the US dollar had appreciated 1% against all foreign currencies, with all other variables held constant, the impact of this foreign currency change on the Company's foreign denominated financial instruments would have resulted in a decrease in after-tax net loss of $135 for the year ended February 28, 2014 [2013 – increase of $42], with an equal and opposite effect if the US dollar had depreciated 1% against all foreign currencies at February 28, 2014.
Liquidity risk
A risk exists that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. As at February 28, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $18,992 [2013 – $22,959]. Based on current revenue expectations, the continuing availability of credit facilities, and other options available, the Company believes that its liquidity risk is manageable.
