NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF
PRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Pro-Dex, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,”
“Pro-Dex,” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.
GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2022, the FASB issued
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No 2022-02 (Topic 326) Financial Instruments – Credit Losses to create a
new model for credit losses that reflects current expected credit losses (“CECL”) over the lifetime of the underlying accounts
receivable. The CECL methodology is applicable to our trade accounts receivable and our deferred costs. We adopted ASU 2022-02 effective
July 1, 2023, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Correction of Previously Reported Interim Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements
As previously
disclosed, the Company restated its 2023 financial statements, which were presented in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial
statements for Company’s fiscal year 2023 Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on
October 13, 2023. The restatement corrected the error related to the understated fair value of the Monogram warrant. The restatement
recorded the investment at its estimated fair value for all restated periods, recorded an unrealized gain on investments and
recorded the deferred income tax expense associated with the corresponding unrealized gain on investments.
Presented below are the
changes to each financial statement line item which changed as a result of the restatement.

NOTE 2. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
We specialize in the design, development
and manufacture of autoclavable, battery-powered and electric, multi-function surgical drivers and shavers used primarily in the orthopedic,
thoracic, and maxocranial facial markets. We have patented adaptive torque-limiting software and proprietary sealing solutions which
appeal to our customers, primarily medical device distributors. We also manufacture and sell rotary air motors to a wide range of industries.
In
August 2020, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary, PDEX Franklin, LLC (“PDEX Franklin”), to hold title for an approximate 25,000
square foot industrial building in Tustin, California (the “Franklin Property”) that we acquired on November 6, 2020, in order
to allow for the continued growth of our business. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and PDEX Franklin and all significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. This subsidiary has no separate operations.
NOTE 3. NET SALES
The following table presents the
disaggregation of net sales by revenue recognition model (in thousands):

$ 11,087
The timing of revenue recognition,
billings, and cash collections results in billed accounts receivables, unbilled receivables (presented as deferred costs on our condensed
consolidated balance sheets) and customer advances and deposits (presented as deferred revenue on our condensed consolidated balance sheets),
where applicable. Amounts are generally billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed upon milestones. The over-time revenue recognition
model consists of non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) and prototype services and typically relates to NRE services related to
the evaluation, design or customization of a medical device and is typically recognized over time utilizing an input measure of progress
based on costs incurred compared to the estimated total costs upon completion. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022,
we recorded $ 0 and $ 551,000 , respectively, of revenue that had been included in deferred revenue in the prior year. The revenue recognized
from the contract liabilities consisted of satisfying our performance obligations during the normal course of business.

The shares were purchased through 10b5-1 Plans, that, in accordance with our internal policies regarding the approval of related-party
transactions, were approved by our then three Board members that are not affiliated with Air T, Inc.
The Monogram
Warrant represents our right to purchase up to 5% of the outstanding stock of Monogram Orthopaedics Inc. (“Monogram”) which
we were granted on December 18, 2018. On October 6, 2023, in conjunction with the execution of a supply agreement with Monogram, we exercised
our Monogram Warrant in full in cash totaling $ 1,250,000 and have received 1,828,551 shares of Monogram common stock (NasdaqCM: MGRM).
The closing price of Monogram stock on October 6, 2023, was $ 2.67 per share.
At September
30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Monogram Warrant was exercisable into a total of 1,825,405 and 1,823,058 shares of Monogram’s outstanding
stock, respectively. The estimated fair value of the warrant at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 was $ 3,670,000 and $ 6,160,000 , respectively,

the issuance of the patent. Future amortization expense is estimated to be $ 27,000 for fiscal 2024 and annually through fiscal 2026. All
remaining costs are expected to be fully amortized by June 30, 2026.
NOTE 5. WARRANTY
The
warranty accrual is based on historical costs of warranty repairs and expected future identifiable warranty expenses and is included in
accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the warranty reserve
amounted to $ 189,000 and $ 200,000 , respectively. Warranty expenses are included in cost of sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated
statements of operations. Changes in estimates to previously established warranty accruals result from current period updates to assumptions
regarding repair costs and warranty return rates and are included in current period warranty expense.

NOTE 6. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
We calculate basic net
income per share by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted
income per share reflects the effects of potentially dilutive securities, which consist entirely of outstanding stock options and performance
awards.
The following table presents
reconciliations of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted income per share computations. For the three months ended
September 30, 2023, 64,800 dilutive securities, consisting exclusively of performance awards, were excluded from the diluted loss per
share because the impact would be anti-dilutive. In the tables below, income amounts represent the numerator, and share amounts represent
the denominator (in thousands, except per share amounts):

NOTE 7. INCOME TAXES
Deferred
income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for temporary differences. Temporary
differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more - likely - than - not
that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and
rates on the date of enactment.
Significant
management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes and the recoverability of our
deferred tax assets. Such determination is based primarily on our historical taxable income or loss, with some consideration given to
our estimates of future taxable income or loss
by jurisdictions in which we operate and the period over which our deferred tax assets would be recoverable.
We
recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits when applicable.
As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized accrued interest of $ 7,000 and $ 48,000 , respectively, related to unrecognized tax benefits.
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, is 26 % and
18 %, respectively. The prior year effective tax rate is less than the current year rate due primarily to a tax benefit recognized as
a result of the common stock awarded to our employees under previously granted performance awards (see Note 8).
We
are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income
tax of multiple state tax jurisdictions. We are currently open to audit
under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended June 30, 2020 and later. Our state income tax returns
are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended June 30, 2019 and
later. However, because of our prior net operating losses and research credit carryovers, our tax years from June 30, 2007 are open to
audit. We do not anticipate a significant change to the
total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

NOTE 8. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Through 2014,
we had two equity compensation plans, the Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan (the
“Employee Stock Option Plan”) and the Amended and Restated 2004 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Directors’
Stock Option Plan”) (collectively, the “Former Stock Option Plans”). The Employee Stock Option Plan and Directors’
Stock Option Plan were terminated in June 2014 and December 2014, respectively and there are no remaining options outstanding under either
of these Former Stock Option Plans.
In September 2016, our Board
approved the establishment of the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, which was approved by our shareholders at our 2016 Annual Meeting. The 2016
Equity Incentive Plan provides for the award of up to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock in the form of incentive stock options, nonstatutory
stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted stock units, performance awards, and other stock-based awards.
As of September 30, 2023, 200,000 performance awards and 372,000 non-qualified stock options have been granted under the 2016 Equity Incentive
Plan.
Performance Awards
In December 2017, the Compensation
Committee of our Board of Directors granted 200,000 performance awards to our employees under our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, which will
generally be paid in shares of our common stock. Whether any performance awards vest, and the amount that does vest, is tied to the completion
of service periods that range from 7 months to 9.5 years at inception and the achievement of our common stock trading at certain pre-determined
prices. The weighted-average fair value of the performance awards granted was $ 4.46 , calculated using the weighted-average fair market
value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation. In February 2020, the Compensation Committee reallocated 48,000 previously forfeited
awards, having the same remaining terms and conditions, to certain employees. The weighted-average fair value of the performance awards
reallocated in 2020 was $ 16.90 , calculated using the weighted-average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation.
In December 2021, the Compensation Committee reallocated an additional 17,500 previously forfeited awards, having the same remaining terms
and conditions, to other employees. The weighted average fair value of the performance awards reallocated in 2021 was $ 20.34 , calculated
using the weighted average fair market value for each award, using a Monte Carlo simulation. We recorded share-based compensation expense
of $ 15,000 and $ 30,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to these performance awards. On September
30, 2023, there was approximately $ 83,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to these non-vested performance awards, which is expected
to be expensed over the weighted-average period of 1.74 years.
On July 1, 2022, it was
determined by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors that the vesting of performance awards for 37,500 shares of common
stock had been achieved. Each participant elected a net issuance to cover their individual withholding taxes and therefore we issued 23,641
shares and paid $ 223,000 of participant-related payroll tax liabilities.
Non-Qualified Stock Options
In December 2020, the Compensation
Committee of our Board of Directors granted 310,000 non-qualified stock options to our directors and certain employees under the 2016
Equity Incentive Plan. The vesting of these stock options is tied to the completion of service periods that range from 18 months to 10.5
years at inception and the achievement of our common stock trading at certain pre-determined prices. We recorded compensation expense
of $ 168,000 and $ 171,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, related to these options. The weighted-average
fair value of the stock option awards granted was $ 16.72 , calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. As of September 30, 2023, none of
these stock options had vested and there was approximately $ 2.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to these non-vested
non-qualified stock options.
In February 2021, the Compensation
Committee of our Board of Directors granted 62,000 non-qualified stock options to our directors and certain employees under the 2016 Equity
Incentive Plan. The vesting of these stock options is tied to the completion of service periods that range from 4 months to 1.3 years
at inception and the achievement of our common stock trading at certain pre-determined prices. Of these 62,000 stock options, 57,750 vested
on July 1, 2021, as our common stock met the pre-determined prices set forth in the underlying agreements and the required service periods
were already satisfied. The weighted-average fair value of the stock option awards granted was $ 3.16 , calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In September 2014, our Board
approved the establishment of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP conforms to the provisions of Section
423 of the Internal Revenue Code, has coterminous offering and purchase periods of six months, and bases the pricing to purchase shares
of our common stock on a formula so as to result in a per-share purchase price that approximates a 15% discount from the market price
of a share of our common stock at the end of the purchase period. The Board of Directors also approved the provision that shares formerly
reserved for issuance under the Former Stock Option Plans in excess of shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options, aggregating 704,715
shares, be reserved for issuance pursuant to the ESPP. The ESPP was approved by our shareholders at our 2014 Annual Meeting.
During the first quarters
ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, 2,021 and 2,503 shares were purchased, respectively, under the ESPP and allocated to employees based
upon their contributions at discount prices of $ 15.82 and $ 13.52 , respectively, per share. As of September 30, 2023, on a cumulative basis,
since the inception of the ESPP plan, employees have purchased a total of 34,519 shares. During each of the three months ended September
30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded stock compensation expense in the amount of $ 6,000 relating to the ESPP.

NOTE 10. NOTES PAYABLE AND FINANCING TRANSACTIONS
Minnesota Bank & Trust (“MBT”)
On
November 6, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), PDEX Franklin, a newly created wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, purchased the
Franklin Property. A portion of the purchase price was financed by a loan from MBT to PDEX Franklin in the principal amount of approximately
$ 5.2 million (the “Property Loan”) pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, between PDEX Franklin and MBT
(the “Property Loan Agreement”) and corresponding Term Note (the “Property Note”) issued by PDEX Franklin in favor
of MBT on the Closing Date. The Property Loan is secured by the Franklin Property pursuant to a Deed of Trust with Assignment of Leases
and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing in favor of MBT (the “Deed”) and by an Assignment of Leases and Rents by
PDEX Franklin in favor of MBT (the “Rents Assignment”). We paid loan origination fees to MBT on the Closing Date in the amount
of $ 26,037 .
The
Property Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.55 % per annum, which is subject to a 3% increase upon an event of default. Accrued interest
was paid on December 1, 2020, and both principal and interest in the amount of approximately $ 30,000 are due and payable on the first
day of each subsequent month until the maturity date of November 1, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time a balloon payment
in the amount of $ 3.1 million is due. Any prepayment of the Property Loan (other than monthly scheduled interest and principal payments),
is subject to a prepayment fee equal to 4% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the first or second year, 3%
of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the third or fourth year, 2% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment
made during the fifth or sixth year, and 1% of the principal amount prepaid for any prepayment made during the seventh or eighth year.
The Property Loan Agreement, Property Note, Deed, and Rents Assignment each contain representations, warranties, covenants, and events
of default that are customary for a loan of this type. The balance owed on the Property Loan at September 30, 2023 is $ 4,698,000 .
On
the Closing Date, we also entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with MBT (the “Amended Credit Agreement”),
providing for a $ 7,525,000 amended and restated term loan (the “Term Loan A”), a $ 1,000,000 term loan (the “Term Loan
B”), and a $ 2,000,000 amended and restated revolving loan (the “Revolving Loan” and, together with the Term Loan A and
the Term Loan B, collectively, the “Loans”), evidenced by an Amended and Restated Term Note A (“Term Note A”),
a Term Note B, and an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note (the “Revolving Note”) made by us in favor of MBT. The Loans
are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to a Security Agreement entered into on September 6, 2018 between
the Company and MBT. The Term Note A had an outstanding principal balance of $ 3,770,331 as of the Closing Date and could be borrowed against
through May 30, 2021 (the “Commitment Period”). During the third quarter ended March 31, 2021, we borrowed an additional $ 3,000,000
against Term Note A for the purpose of repurchasing our common stock as described in Note 11. The Term Note B had a zero balance as of
the Closing Date and we borrowed the full $ 1,000,000 during the third quarter ended March 31, 2021, for the purpose of making improvements
to the Franklin Property.

The
Term Loan A matures on November 1, 2027 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.84 % per annum. Initial payments on the Term Loan A of
interest only were due on December 1, 2020 through June 1, 2021. Commencing July 1, 2021 and continuing on the first day of each month
thereafter until the maturity date, we are required to make payments of principal and interest on Term Loan A of approximately $ 97,000
plus any additional accrued and unpaid interest through the date of payment. The balance owed on Term Loan A as of September 30, 2023,
is $ 4,586,000 .
The
Term Loan B matures on November 1, 2027 and bears interest at a fixed rate of 3.84 % per annum. Initial payments on the Term Loan B of
interest only were due on December 1, 2020 through June 1, 2021. Commencing July 1, 2021 and continuing on the first day of each month
thereafter until the maturity date, we are required to make payments of principal and interest on Term Loan B of approximately $ 15,000 ,
plus any additional accrued and unpaid interest through the date of payment. As of March 31, 2021, we had drawn fully against Term Note
B and the balance outstanding on Term Note B was $ 683,000 on September 30, 2023.
On December 29, 2022 (the “Amendment
Date”), we entered into Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with MBT, which amends
the Amended Credit Agreement and provides for a supplemental line of credit in the amount of $3,000,000 (the “Supplemental Loan”).
The Supplemental Loan is evidenced by a Supplemental Revolving Credit Note (the “Supplemental Note”) made by us in favor of
MBT. The purpose of the Supplemental Loan is for financing acquisitions and repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Supplemental
Loan may be borrowed against from time to time through its maturity date of December 29, 2024, on the terms set forth in the Amended Credit
Agreement. As of September 30, 2023, no amounts have been drawn against the Supplemental Loan.
The Revolving Loan was also amended
(the “Amended Revolving Loan”) in connection with the Amendment to extend the
maturity date from November 5, 2023 to December 29, 2024 , to increase the Revolving Loan facility from $ 2,000,000
to $ 7,000,000 ,
and to increase the interest rate on the Revolving Loan (as described below), evidenced by an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note
(the “Amended Revolving Note”) made by us in favor of MBT. The Amended Revolving Loan may be borrowed against from time to
time by us through its maturity date on the terms set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2023, we had drawn $ 1,500,000
against the Amended Revolving Loan. Loan origination fees in the amount of $ 16,000 were
paid to MBT in conjunction with the Amended Revolving Loan and the Supplemental Loan.
The Amended Revolving Loan and
Supplemental Loan bear interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) 5.0% or (b) SOFR for a one-month period from the website
of the CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 2.5% (the “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate”). Commencing on the first day of
each month after we initially borrow against the Amended Revolving Loan and/or the Supplemental Loan and each month thereafter until maturity,
we are required to pay all accrued and unpaid interest on the Amended Revolving Loan and Supplemental Loan through the date of payment.
Any principal on the Amended Revolving Loan and/or Supplemental Loan that is not previously prepaid shall be due and payable in full on
the maturity date (or earlier termination of the Amended Revolving Loan and/or Supplemental Loan).
Any
payment on the Term Loan A, the Term Loan B, the Amended Revolving Loan or the Supplemental Loan (collectively, the “Loans”)
not made within seven days after the due date is subject to a late payment fee equal to 5% of the overdue amount. Upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an event of default, the interest rate of all Loans will be increased by 3% and MBT may, at its option,
declare all of the Loans immediately due and payable in full.

The
Amended Credit Agreement, Amended Security Agreement, Term Note A, Term Note B, Amended Revolving Note and Supplemental Note contain representations
and warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default that are customary for loans of this type. In October
2023, we obtained a waiver from MBT extending the deadline to provide our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2023 to November 15, 2023. We provided our audited financial statements to MBT on October 13, 2023. We believe that we are in compliance
with all of our debt covenants as of September 30, 2023, except for the aforementioned covenant for which we obtained and complied with
a waiver, but there can be no assurance that we will remain in compliance for the duration of the term of these loans.
NOTE 11. COMMON
STOCK
Share Repurchase Program
In December 2019, our Board
approved a new share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to 1 million shares of our common stock, as the prior repurchase
plan authorized by our Board in 2013 was nearing completion. In accordance with, and as part of, these share repurchase programs, our
Board has approved the adoption of several prearranged share repurchase plans intended to qualify for the safe harbor Rule 10b5-1 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“10b5-1 Plan” or “Plan”). During the quarter ended September
30, 2023 we did not repurchase any shares. During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased 20,853 shares at an aggregate cost,
inclusive of fees under the plan, of $ 354,000 . On a cumulative basis since 2013, we have repurchased a total of 1,197,168 shares under
the share repurchase programs at an aggregate cost, inclusive of fees, of $ 17.2 million. All repurchases under the 10b5-1 Plans were administered
through an independent broker.
NOTE 12. LEASES
Our operating lease right-of-use
asset and long-term liability are presented separately on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The current portion of our operating
