We have taken note of the Staff’s comment to make revisions to the pro forma consolidated financial information.
Q: How do you calculate Goodwill in the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet?
The pro forma Goodwill of $34,247 is calculated as follows (000’s):
QMT Goodwill | | $ | 6,964 | |
Plus: Goodwill created by reverse acquisition of ARC | | | 11,901 | |
Plus: Goodwill created by acquisition of AFT | | | 15,382 | |
Equals: ARC pro forma Goodwill | | | 34,247 | |
Less: prior Goodwill at QMT | | | (6,964 | ) |
Less: prior Goodwill at AFT | | | (12,387 | ) |
Equals: Adjustment to Goodwill | | | 14,896 | |
Please see the Exhibit to this letter for updated unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements that reflect this calculation.

PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheet of ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc. (ARC) as of March 31, 2012 and the historical consolidated balance sheet of Quadrant Metal Technologies LLC (QMT) as of March 31, 2012, and the historical combined balance sheet of Advanced Forming Technology (AFT) as of March 31, 2012, giving effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred April 1, 2011. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended March 31, 2012 combines the historical consolidated statement of operations of ARC for the year ended March 31, 2012, QMT and AFT for the twelve months ended March 31, 2012 as if the merger had occurred on April 1, 2011. Adjustments have been made to conform QMT and AFT’s balance sheet and statement of operations to ARC fiscal year end. No pro forma effects have been given to any operational or other synergies that may be realized from the acquisitions.
The share exchange is being accounted for as a “reverse acquisition,” even though the Board of Directors and management team, after the exchange, are comprised of ARC’s management team. However, the QMT shareholders will own the majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock immediately following the transaction; therefore QMT is deemed to be the acquirer of ARC in the reverse acquisition.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is based on the estimates and assumptions described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been prepared using the purchase method of accounting in which the total cost of the acquisitions are allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisitions. This allocation has been done on a preliminary basis and is subject to change pending final determination of fair values for the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and a final analysis of the total purchase price paid, including direct costs of the acquisitions. The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information represent the preliminary determination of such adjustments based upon currently available information. Accordingly, the actual fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related adjustments may differ from those reflected in this Proxy Statement. ARC expects to finalize the purchase price allocations within one year of the date of the acquisitions.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that might have been achieved had the transaction occurred as of an earlier date, and they are not necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial position. These pro forma amounts do not, therefore, project ARC’s financial position or results of operations for any future date or period. The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and the related notes thereto of ARC, which are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as other financial information included elsewhere in this Proxy.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| | On April 6, ARC Wireless Solutions, Inc. (ARC) entered into separate, definitive purchase and sale agreements to acquire Quadrant Metal Technologies LLC (QMT) and Advanced Forming Technology (AFT). The QMT purchase price is to be paid through the issuance of ARC common stock. The AFT purchase price is approximately $43,000,000 and is to be paid in cash and issuance of convertible notes. The effective date of the acquisitions is expected to occur in August 2012, with any final purchase price adjustments calculated at that time. |
The share exchange is being accounted for as a “reverse acquisition,” even though the Board of Directors and management team, after the exchange, are comprised of ARC’s management team. However, the QMT shareholders will own the majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s capital stock immediately following the transaction; therefore QMT is deemed to be the acquirer of ARC in the reverse acquisition.
The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of ARC, QMT and AFT as of March 31, 2012, giving effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred April 1, 2011. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended March 31, 2012 combines the historical consolidated statements of operations of ARC, QMT and AFT for the year ended March 31, 2012, as if the merger had occurred on April 1, 2011. Adjustments have been made to conform QMT and AFT’s balance sheet and statement of operations to ARC fiscal year end. No pro forma effects have been given to any operational or other synergies that may be realized from the acquisitions.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is based on the estimates and assumptions described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information has been prepared using the purchase method of accounting in which the total cost of the acquisitions are allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisitions. This allocation has been done on a preliminary basis and is subject to change pending final determination of fair values for the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and a final analysis of the total purchase price paid, including direct costs of the acquisitions. The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information represent the preliminary determination of such adjustments based upon currently available information. Accordingly, the actual fair value of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related adjustments may differ from those reflected in this Proxy Statement. ARC expects to finalize the purchase price allocations within one year of the date of the acquisitions.

Also, 112,135 shares of ARC’s common stock issued for $4 per share for cash for total value of $448,541. The issuance of stock is reflected as an allocation of $4 to common stock and $23,255 to additional paid in capital. |
