Description of the Company and Basis of Presentation	NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of the Company I.D. Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) develop, market and sell wireless machine-to-machine solutions for managing and securing high-value enterprise assets. These assets include industrial vehicles such as forklifts and airport ground support equipment, rental vehicles and transportation assets, such as dry van trailers, refrigerated trailers, railcars and containers. The Company’s patented wireless asset management systems utilize radio frequency identification (RFID), Wi-Fi, satellite or cellular communications, and sensor technology and software to address the needs of organizations to control, track, monitor and analyze their assets. Our cloud-based software application called I.D. Systems Analytics (“Analytics”) is designed to provide a single, integrated view of asset activity across multiple locations, generating enterprise-wide benchmarks and peer-industry comparisons to provide an even deeper layer of insights into asset operations. Analytics determines key performance indicators relating to the performance of managed assets. The Company’s solutions enable customers to achieve tangible economic benefits by making timely, informed decisions that increase the safety, security, revenue, productivity and efficiency of their operations. The Company outsources its hardware manufacturing operations to contract manufacturers. I.D. Systems, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in 1993 and commenced operations in January 1994. Public Offering On July 17, 2017, the Company closed an underwritten public offering consisting of 2,608,695 shares of common stock at a price per share of $5.75. In addition, the underwriters of the public offering exercised in full their option to purchase an additional 391,304 shares of common stock. Including this option exercise, the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering of a total of 2,999,999 shares of common stock, before deducting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $17.3 million. Net proceeds from the public offering were approximately $16.1 million. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to fund the Keytroller Acquisition (as defined below) and intends to use the remaining portion of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. Keytroller Acquisition On July 31, 2017, we, together with our wholly-owned subsidiary Keytroller, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Keytroller”), acquired substantially all of the assets of Keytroller, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the “Keytroller Acquisition”). The business we acquired in the Keytroller Acquisition develops and markets electronic products for managing forklifts and construction vehicles. The Keytroller Acquisition gives us a full suite of industrial fleet management product offerings capable of covering any sized fleet and budget and provides our industrial truck business more scale, both from a product and revenue standpoint and markets its line of forklift management devices mainly through a network of lift truck dealers, offering solutions for different fleet sizes at a wide range of price points. Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of I.D. Systems, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Asset Intelligence, LLC (“AI”), I.D. Systems GmbH (“IDS GmbH”), I.D. Systems (UK) Ltd (formerly Didbox Ltd.) (“IDS Ltd”) and Keytroller (collectively referred to as the “Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2018, the consolidated results of its operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, the consolidated change in stockholders’ equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 and the consolidated cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended. Certain amounts included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the prior period’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to research and development to conform to the presentation used in the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Liquidity As of March 31, 2018, we had cash (including restricted cash), cash equivalents and marketable securities of $14.3 million and working capital of $11.5 million. The Company’s primary sources of cash are cash flows from operating activities and the Company’s holdings of cash, cash equivalents and investments from the sale of common stock. To date, the Company has not generated sufficient cash flows solely from operating activities to fund its operations. We believe our available working capital, anticipated level of future revenues and expected cash flows from operations will provide sufficient funds to cover capital requirements through at least May 15, 2019.

Use Of Estimates
Use of Estimates	NOTE 3 - USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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. The Company continually evaluates estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements for reasonableness. The most significant estimates relate to stock-based compensation arrangements, measurements of fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and acquisition-related contingent consideration, realization of deferred tax assets, the impairment of tangible and intangible assets, inventory reserves, allowance for doubtful accounts, warranty reserves and deferred revenue and costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract]
Investments	NOTE 4 - INVESTMENTS The Company’s investments include debt securities, U.S. Treasury Notes, government and state agency bonds and corporate bonds, which are classified as either available for sale, held to maturity or trading, depending on management’s investment intentions relating to these securities. As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, all of the Company’s investments are classified as available for sale. Available for sale securities are measured at fair value based on quoted market values of the securities, with the unrealized gains and (losses) reported as comprehensive income or (loss). For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, the Company reported unrealized gains (losses), net of realized amounts of $4,000 and $(93,000), respectively, on available for sale securities in total comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available for sale securities are determined on a specific-identification basis. The Company has classified as short-term those securities that mature within one year. All other securities are classified as long-term. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of investment in debt securities designated as available for sale classified by the contractual maturity date of the security as of March 31, 2018: Fair Value Due within one year $ 761,000 Due one year through two years 1,613,000 Due after three years 7,061,000 $ 9,435,000 The cost, gross unrealized gains (losses) and fair value of available for sale securities by major security types as of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 are as follows: Unrealized Unrealized Fair March 31, 2018 (Unaudited) Cost Gain Loss Value Investments - short term Available for sale U.S. Treasury Notes $ 349,000 $ - $ (2,000 ) $ 347,000 Government agency bonds 249,000 (1,000 ) 248,000 Corporate bonds and commercial paper 167,000 - (1,000 ) 166,000 Total investments - short term 765,000 - (4,000 ) 761,000 Investments - long term Available for sale U.S. Treasury Notes 3,275,000 - (52,000 ) 3,223,000 Government agency bonds 3,329,000 - (59,000 ) 3,270,000 Corporate bonds and commercial paper 2,239,000 - (58,000 ) 2,181,000 Total investments - long term 8,843,000 - (169,000 ) 8,674,000 Total investments $ 9,608,000 $ - $ (173,000 ) $ 9,435,000 Unrealized Unrealized Fair December 31, 2017 Cost Gain Loss Value Investments - short term Available for sale U.S. Treasury Notes $ 1,066,000 - (1,000 ) $ 1,065,000 Corporate bonds and commercial paper 136,000 - - 136,000 Total investments - short term 1,202,000 - (1,000 ) 1,201,000 Investments - long term Available for sale U.S. Treasury Notes 3,367,000 - (37,000 ) 3,330,000 Government agency bonds 4,279,000 - (40,000 ) 4,239,000 Corporate bonds and commercial paper 2,744,000 - (35,000 ) 2,709,000 Total investments - long term 10,390,000 - (112,000 ) 10,278,000 Total investments $ 11,592,000 $ - $ (113,000 ) $ 11,479,000 The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those levels: ● Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. ● Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. ● Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s estimates of market participants’ assumptions. As of December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, all of the Company’s investments are classified as Level 1 fair value measurements.

Revenue Recognition

Deferred Revenue Disclosure [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	NOTE 5 - REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company’s revenue is derived from: (i) sales of our wireless asset management systems and spare parts; (ii) remotely hosted SaaS agreements and post-contract maintenance and support agreements; (iii) services, which includes training and technical support; and (iv) periodically, leasing arrangements. Amounts invoiced to customers which are not recognized as revenue are classified as deferred revenue and classified as short-term or long-term based upon the terms of future services to be delivered. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control of our wireless asset management systems, spare parts, or services. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as expense when the products are sold (see Note 16). We recognize revenue for remotely hosted SaaS agreements and post-contract maintenance and support agreements beyond our standard warranties over the life of the contract. The following table presents our revenues disaggregated by revenue source for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 Product Service Total Industrial truck asset management $ 6,176,000 $ 1,444,000 $ 7,620,000 Connected vehicles 2,256,000 33,000 2,289,000 Transportation asset management 1,466,000 2,004,000 3,470,000 Total Revenue $ 9,898,000 $ 3,481,000 $ 13,379,000 Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Product Service Total Industrial truck asset management $ 2,718,000 $ 1,370,000 $ 4,088,000 Connected vehicles 178,000 178,000 Transportation asset management 1,616,000 2,117,000 3,733,000 Total Revenue $ 4,334,000 $ 3,665,000 $ 7,999,000 Industrial truck asset management and connected vehicles Our industrial truck and connected vehicle wireless asset management systems consist of on-asset hardware, communication infrastructure, SaaS, and hosting infrastructure. The Company’s system is typically implemented by the customer or a third party and, as a result, revenue related to the on-asset hardware is recognized when control of the hardware is transferred to the customer, which usually is upon delivery of the system and contractual obligations have been satisfied. Revenue related to the SaaS and hosting infrastructure performance obligation is recognized over time as access to the SaaS and hosting infrastructure is provided to the customer. In some instances, we are also responsible for providing installation services, training and technical support services which are short-term in nature and revenue for these services are recognized at the time of performance or right to invoice. Transportation asset management Our transportation asset management systems consist of on-asset hardware and SaaS services. The transportation asset management systems does not have stand-alone value to the customer separate from the SaaS services provided and, therefore, we consider both hardware and SaaS services a bundled performance obligation. Under the applicable accounting guidance, all of the Company’s billings for equipment and the related cost are deferred, recorded, and classified as a current and long-term liability and a current and long-term asset, respectively. Deferred revenue and cost are recognized over the service contract life, ranging from one to five years, beginning at the time that a customer acknowledges acceptance of the equipment and service. The customer service contracts typically range from one to five years. In addition, the service revenue for our transportation asset monitoring equipment relates to charges for monthly messaging usage and value-added features charges. The usage fee is a monthly fixed charge based on the expected utilization according to the rate plan chosen by the customer. Service revenue generally commences upon equipment installation and customer acceptance and is recognized over the period such services are provided. The Company also enters into remotely hosted SaaS agreements and post-contract maintenance and support agreements for its wireless asset management systems. Revenue is recognized ratably over the service periods and the cost of providing these services is expensed as incurred. Deferred revenue also includes prepayment of extended maintenance, hosting and support contracts. The Company also derives revenue under leasing arrangements. Such arrangements provide for monthly payments covering the system sale, maintenance, support and interest. These arrangements meet the criteria to be accounted for as sales-type leases. Accordingly, an asset is established for the “sales-type lease receivable” at the present value of the expected lease payments and revenue is deferred and recognized over the service contract, as described above. Maintenance revenues and interest income are recognized monthly over the lease term. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The balances of contract assets, and contract liabilities from contracts with customers are as follows as of March 31, 2018 and 2017: March 31, 2017 2018 Current assets: $ - $ 53,000 Sales commissions to employees (1) Current liabilities: Deferred revenue -other (2) 3,384,000 473,000 Deferred maintenance and SaaS revenue (2) 2,914,000 4,652,000 Deferred transportation asset management product revenue (2) 13,870,000 11,483,000 20,168,000 16,608,000 Less: Current portion 11,095,000 8,654,000 Deferred revenue - less current portion $ 9,073,000 $ 7,954,000 (1) The Company recognized an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining the contract arising from the sales commissions to employees because the Company expects to recover those costs through future fees from the customers. The Company amortizes the asset over three to five years because the asset relates to the services transferred to the customer during the contract term of three to five years. (2) We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, the Company recognized revenue of $2,465,000 and $4,248,000, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period. The Company expects to recognize as revenue before year 2023, when it transfers those goods and services and, therefore, satisfies its performance obligation to the customers. We do not separately account for activation fees since no good or service is transferred to the customer. Therefore, the activation fee is included in the transaction price and allocated to the performance obligations in the contract and deferred/amortized over the life of the contract. Development project with Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC On March 18, 2017 (the “SOW#4 Effective Date”), the Company entered into a statement of work (the “SOW#4”) with Avis Budget Car Rental, LLC (“ABCR”), a subsidiary of Avis Budget Group, Inc. (“Avis”), for 50,000 units of the Company’s cellular-enabled rental fleet car management system (the “System”) and maintenance and support of the System (“Maintenance Services”) for sixty months from installation of the equipment for the consideration of approximately $21,270,000. ABCR has an option to purchase additional units and has the option to renew the Maintenance Services period for an additional twelve months upon its expiry, and then after such 12-month period, ABCR can purchase additional Maintenance Services on a month-to-month basis (during which ABCR can terminate the Maintenance Services) for up to forty-eight additional months. The SOW#4 may be terminated by ABCR for cause (which is generally the Company’s material breach of its obligations under the SOW#4), for convenience (subject to a termination fee), upon a material adverse change to the Company, or for intellectual property infringement. The Company does not have the right to unilaterally terminate the SOW#4. In the event that ABCR terminates the SOW#4, then ABCR would be liable to the Company for the net present value of all future remaining charges under the SOW#4 at a negotiated discount rate per annum, with the payment due on the effective date of termination. The SOW#4 provides for a period of exclusivity commencing on the SOW#4 Effective Date and ending fourteen months after the SOW#4 Effective Date, which may be extended in six-month increments by Avis under certain conditions. Avis has the right to cancel or accept the System and pay a lower price if the System cannot retrieve the necessary vehicle data from twenty-five makes and models six months after the SOW#4 Effective Date. The Company received an upfront payment of $3,290,000, consisting of a $2,000,000 initial payment for the units to be delivered, $902,000 for development of additional system enhancements and $388,000 for production readiness development. The upfront payment is included in current deferred revenue at December 31, 2017. In September 2017, the Company and ABCR amended SOW#4 for out-of-scope system enhancements performed by the Company. The Company recognizes revenue on the development project, which was completed and approved in December 2017, on a proportional method performance basis, as determined by the relationship of actual labor and material costs incurred to date compared to the estimated total project costs. Estimates of total project costs are reviewed and revised during the term of the project. Revisions to project costs estimates, where applicable, are recorded in the period in which the facts that give rise to such changes become known. The Company recognized SOW#4 development project revenue of $-0- during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018. The Company recognized SOW#4 product revenue of $2,256,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The following is the amount of the transaction price that has not yet been recognized as revenue as of March 31, 2018, which is expected to be recognized by year 2023: 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 Total Revenue expected to be recognized December 31, $ 1,031,000 $ 2,040,000 $ 2,040,000 $ 2,040,000 $ 2,040,000 $ 7,262,000 $ 16,453,000 Part of the performance credit earnbacks and incentive payments (“performance bonus”) have been excluded from the disclosure table above because it was not included in the transaction price. That part of the performance bonus was excluded from the transaction price in accordance with the accounting guidance in Topic 606 on constraining estimates of variable consideration, including the following factors: ● The susceptibility of the consideration amount to factors outside the Company’s influence, including weather conditions and the risk of obsolescence of the promised goods and services. ● Whether the uncertainty about the consideration amount is not expected to be resolved for a long period of time. ● The Company’s experience with similar types of contracts. ● Whether the Company expects to offer price concessions or change the payment terms. ● The range of possible consideration amounts. Arrangements with multiple performance obligations Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine standalone selling prices based on observable prices charged to customers or adjusted market assessment or using expected cost-plus margin when one is available. Adjusted market assessment price is determined based on overall pricing objectives taking into consideration market conditions and entity specific factors. Practical expedients and exemptions We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses. We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Receivables [Abstract]
Financing Receivables	NOTE 6 - FINANCING RECEIVABLES Financing receivables consists of sales-type lease receivables from the sale of the Company’s products and services. The present value of net investment in sales-type lease receivable is principally for three- to five-year leases of the Company’s products and is reflected net of unearned interest income of $164,000 and $147,000 at December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, respectively, at a weighted-average discount rate of 4% Scheduled maturities of sales-type lease minimum lease payments outstanding as of March 31, 2018 are as follows: Year ending December 31: April - December 2018 $ 943,000 2019 858,000 2020 597,000 2021 218,000 2022 63,000 Thereafter 6,000 2,685,000 Less: Current portion 943,000 Sales-type lease receivable - less current portion $ 1,742,000 The allowance for doubtful accounts represents the Company’s best estimate of the amount of credit losses in the Company’s existing sales-type lease receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined on an individual lease basis if it is probable that the Company will not collect all principal and interest contractually due. The Company considers its customers’ financial condition and historical payment patterns in determining the customers’ probability of default. The impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the lease’s effective interest rate. There were no impairment losses recognized for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018. The Company does not accrue interest when a lease is considered impaired. When the ultimate collectability of the principal balance of the impaired lease is in doubt, all cash receipts on impaired leases are applied to reduce the principal amount of such leases until the principal has been recovered and are recognized as interest income thereafter. Impairment losses are charged against the allowance and increases in the allowance are charged to bad debt expense. Leases are written off against the allowance when all possible means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company resumes accrual of interest income when it is probable that the Company will collect the remaining principal and interest of an impaired lease. Leases become past due based on how recently payments have been received.

Stock-Based Compensation	NOTE 11 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Stock Option Plans The Company adopted the 1999 Stock Option Plan, pursuant to which the Company had the right to grant stock awards and options to purchase up to 2,813,000 shares of common stock. The 1999 Stock Option Plan expired during 2009 and the Company cannot issue additional options under this plan. The Company adopted the 2007 Equity Compensation Plan, pursuant to which, as amended, the Company may grant options to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common stock. The 2007 Equity Compensation Plan expired during 2017 and the Company cannot issue additional options under this plan. The Company also adopted the 2009 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan, pursuant to which, as amended, the Company may grant options to purchase up to an aggregate of 600,000 shares of common stock. There were 14,000 shares available for future issuance under the 2009 Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Plan at March 31, 2018. In June 2015, the Company adopted the 2015 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2015 Plan”) pursuant to which the Company may grant stock options, restricted stock and other equity-based awards with respect to up to an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common stock. There were 11,000 shares available for future issuance under the 2015 Plan at March 31, 2018. The plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, which has the authority to determine, among other things, the term during which an option may be exercised (not more than 10 years), the exercise price of an option and the vesting provisions. The Company recognizes all employee share-based payments in the statement of operations as an operating expense, based on their fair values on the applicable grant date. The following table summarizes the activity relating to the Company’s stock options for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018: Weighted- Weighted- Average Average Remaining Aggregate Exercise Contractual Intrinsic Options Price Term Value Outstanding at beginning of year 1,290,000 $ 5.33 Granted - - Exercised (65,000 ) 6.48 Forfeited or expired (5,000 ) 5.96 Outstanding at end of period 1,220,000 $ 5.27 6 years $ 1,167,000 Exercisable at end of period 706,000 $ 5.08 5 years $ 806,000 The fair value of each option grant on the date of grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model reflecting the following weighted-average assumptions: March 31, 2017 2018 Expected volatility 42.4 % - Expected life of options (in years) 4 - Risk free interest rate 1.7 - Dividend yield 0 % - Weighted average fair value of options granted during the period $ 2.11 - Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and the expected life of options is based on historical data with respect to employee exercise periods. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $90,000 and $100,000, respectively, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, in connection with awards made under the stock option plans. The fair value of options vested during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 was $32,000 and $216,000, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018 was $337,000 and $62,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2018, there was approximately $857,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options granted under the Company’s stock option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.64 years. The Company estimates forfeitures at the time of valuation and reduces expense ratably over the vesting period. This estimate is adjusted periodically based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the previous estimate. Restricted Stock The Company grants restricted stock to employees, whereby the employees are contractually restricted from transferring the shares until they are vested. The stock is unvested stock at the time of grant and, upon vesting, there are no contractual restrictions on the stock. The fair value of each share is based on the Company’s closing stock price on the date of the grant. A summary of all non-vested restricted stock for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 is as follows: Weighted- Number of Average Non-vested Grant Date Shares Fair Value Restricted stock, non-vested, beginning of year 430,000 $ 5.91 Granted 235,000 7.42 Vested (77,000 ) 5.84 Forfeited (2,000 ) 5.90 Restricted stock, non-vested, end of period 586,000 $ 6.52 The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $443,000 and $431,000, respectively, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, in connection with restricted stock grants. As of March 31, 2018, there was $2,875,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.08 years. Performance Shares In January 2016, the Company granted 295,000 performance shares to employees pursuant to the 2015 Plan. The shares are unvested at the time of grant and, upon vesting, there are no contractual restrictions on the shares. The vesting of the shares is subject to the achievement of performance goals during a two-year period from the date of issuance, with the ability to achieve prorated vesting of the shares during interim annual measurement periods. If the performance goals are not met, the performance shares will not vest and will automatically be returned to the plan. If the performance goals are met, then the shares will be issued to the employees. A summary of all non-vested performance shares for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 is as follows: Weighted- Number of Average Non-vested Grant Date Shares Fair Value Performance shares, non-vested, beginning of year 111,000 $ 4.07 Granted - - Vested (93,000 ) 4.07 Forfeited (18,000 ) 4.07 Performance shares, non-vested, end of period - $ - The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $180,000 and $(37,000), respectively, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, in connection with the performance share grants.

Equity [Abstract]
Stockholders' Equity	NOTE 12 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Public Offering On July 17, 2017, the Company closed an underwritten public offering consisting of 2,608,695 shares of common stock at a price per share of $5.75. In addition, the underwriters of the public offering exercised in full their option to purchase an additional 391,304 shares of common stock. Including this option exercise, the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering of a total of 2,999,999 shares of common stock, before deducting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $17.3 million. Net proceeds from the public offering were approximately $16.1 million. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to fund the Keytroller Acquisition and intends to use the remaining portion of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes. Preferred stock The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and terms of those shares. No shares of preferred stock are issued and outstanding. Stock repurchase program On November 3, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate value of up to $3,000,000 pursuant to a share repurchase program. The repurchases under the share repurchase program are made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and are funded from the Company’s working capital. The amount and timing of such repurchases is dependent upon the price and availability of shares, general market conditions and the availability of cash, as determined at the discretion of the Company’s management. All shares of common stock repurchased under the Company’s share repurchase program are held as treasury stock. The Company did not purchase any shares of its common stock under the share repurchase program during the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has purchased a total of approximately 310,000 shares of its common stock in open market transactions under the share repurchase program for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1,340,000, or an average cost of $4.33 per share. Shares Withheld During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, 37,000 and 85,000 shares, respectively, of the Company’s common stock were withheld to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted shares and to pay the exercise price of stock options in the aggregate amount of $216,000 and $646,000, respectively.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), Net of Tax [Abstract]
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss	NOTE 13 - ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS Comprehensive loss includes net loss and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale investments and foreign currency translation gains and losses. Cumulative unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments are reflected as accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The accumulated balances for each classification of other comprehensive loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 are as follows: Unrealized Accumulated Foreign gain (losses) other currency on comprehensive items investments loss Balance at January 1, 2018 $ (465,000 ) $ (113,000 ) $ (578,000 ) Net current period change (137,000 ) (60,000 ) (197,000 ) Balance at March 31, 2018 $ (602,000 ) $ (173,000 ) $ (775,000 ) The accumulated balances for each classification of other comprehensive loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017 are as follows: Unrealized Accumulated Foreign gain (losses) other currency on comprehensive items investments income Balance at January 1, 2017 $ (92,000 ) $ (11,000 ) $ (103,000 ) Net current period change (20,000 ) 4,000 (16,000 ) Balance at March 31, 2017 $ (112,000 ) $ (7,000 ) $ (119,000 ) Income and expense accounts of foreign operations are translated at actual or weighted-average exchange rates during the period. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations that operate in a local currency environment are translated to U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date.

Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution assuming common shares were issued upon the exercise of outstanding options and the proceeds thereof were used to purchase outstanding common shares. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, warrants and unvested restricted stock and performance shares awards. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, the basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are the same, since the effect from the potential exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants and vesting of restricted stock and performance shares of 1,955,000 and 1,806,000, respectively would have been anti-dilutive due to the net loss.

Commitments and Contingencies	NOTE 21 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Except for normal operating leases, the Company is not currently subject to any material commitments. Contingencies On June 12, 2017, ACF FinCo I LP (“ACF”) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the District Court for Dallas County, Texas. The complaint alleges that ACF is the successor-in-interest to McDonald Technologies International Inc. (“MTI”), one of our former suppliers, and alleges one cause of action for breach of a May 2015 Master Services Agreement pursuant to which the Company purchased certain products manufactured and services rendered by MTI. The complaint seeks approximately $2.0 million in damages for amounts allegedly due by the Company under this agreement, plus interest and attorney’s fees. On July 7, 2017, the Company filed its answer denying any liability to ACF and asserting various defenses to ACF’s claims against the Company. The lawsuit is currently in active discovery. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intend to continue to vigorously defend ourselves in this matter. Severance agreements The Company entered into severance agreements with five of its executive officers. The severance agreements, each of which is substantially identical in form, provide each executive with certain severance and change in control benefits upon the occurrence of a “Trigger Event,” as defined in the severance agreements. As a condition to the Company’s obligations under the severance agreements, each executive has executed and delivered to the Company a restrictive covenants agreement. Under the terms of the severance agreements, in general, each executive is entitled to the following: (i) a cash payment at the rate of the executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Trigger Event for a period of 12 months, (ii) continued healthcare coverage during the severance period, (iii) partial accelerated vesting of the executive’s previously granted stock options and restricted stock awards, and (iv) as applicable, an award of “Performance Shares” under the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement previously entered into between the Company and the executive.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	NOTE 22 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220)”. The objective of the ASU is to allow a reclassification from accumulated comprehensive income (loss) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and will improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”. The FASB issued the update to provide clarity and reduce the cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718. The amendments in this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. This ASU will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The updated guidance requires a prospective adoption. The guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash,” which requires the inclusion of restricted cash with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which provides clarification on how companies present and classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. This ASU will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which amends the guidance on measuring credit losses on financial assets held at amortized cost. The amendment is intended to address the issue that the previous “incurred loss” methodology was restrictive for an entity’s ability to record credit losses based on not yet meeting the “probable” threshold. The new language will require these assets to be valued at amortized cost presented at the net amount expected to be collected with a valuation provision. This update standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The revised guidance must be applied on a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The revised guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the quarter ending March 31, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 (Topic 606) “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605), and requires entities to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. On January 1, 2018, we adopted Topic 606 and all related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. There is no adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings due to the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard determined to be immaterial. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new revenue standard to be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis. See Note 5 for further details.

The Company amortizes the asset over three to five years because the asset relates to the services transferred to the customer during the contract term of three to five years. (2) We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, the Company recognized revenue of $2,465,000 and $4,248,000, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period. The Company expects to recognize as revenue before year 2023, when it transfers those goods and services and, therefore, satisfies its performance obligation to the customers. We do not separately account for activation fees since no good or service is transferred to the customer. Therefore, the activation fee is included in the transaction price and allocated to the performance obligations in the contract and deferred/amortized over the life of the contract.

[1]	Derived from audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2017.
[2]	The Company recognized an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining the contract arising from the sales commissions to employees because the Company expects to recover those costs through future fees from the customers. The Company amortizes the asset over three to five years because the asset relates to the services transferred to the customer during the contract term of three to five years.
[3]	We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2018, the Company recognized revenue of $2,465,000 and $4,248,000, respectively, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each reporting period. The Company expects to recognize as revenue before year 2023, when it transfers those goods and services and, therefore, satisfies its performance obligation to the customers. We do not separately account for activation fees since no good or service is transferred to the customer. Therefore, the activation fee is included in the transaction price and allocated to the performance obligations in the contract and deferred/amortized over the life of the contract.
