Development of new technology

As part of our technology business strategy, we develop technological solutions and systems for financial and other industries and seek other revenue producing business and business opportunities.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to develop new systems or develop systems that are commercially viable. Our success in developing and marketing our systems will also depend on our ability to adapt to rapid technology changes in the industry and to integrate such changes into our systems.

We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our attempts to change or implement our business strategy. We may not have the expertise to be successful in developing our business in areas that are not related to the security industry.

We compete in a highly competitive industry and our competitors may be more successful in developing new technology and achieving market acceptance of their products.

Acquiring or Investing in Ohter Businesses

From time to time the Company may seek to acquire or invest in other business, which may or may not be related to the business of the Company. No assurance can be given that the Company will acquire or invest in any companies. If the Company decides to acquire or invest, no assurance can be given that such acquisition or investment will be successful.

Cyber Security Measures

We rely on computer systems and information technology in our business and have established security programs for protection. Despite our security measures, our systems may be vulnerable to interruption or damage from computer hackings, viruses, worms or other destructive or disruptive software, process breakdowns, denial of servicer attacks, social engineering or other malicious activities or any combination of the foregoing.

Competition

Competition in the aviation security and other aviation services industry as well as in the technology industry is intense. Many of our competitors have greater financial, technical and marketing resources. We expect that our competitors will develop and market alternative systems and technologies that may have greater functionality or be more cost effective than the services we provide or the systems that we may develop. If our competitors develop such systems we may not be able to successfully market our systems. Even if we are able to develop systems with greater functionality, which are more cost effective than those developed by our competitors, we may not be able to achieve market acceptance of our systems.

Operations in international environments risk

The Company is currently engaged in direct operations in numerous countries and is therefore subject to risks associated with international operations (including economic and/or political instability and trade restrictions). Such risks can cause the Company to have significant difficulties in connection with the sale or provision of its services in international markets and have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Governmental regulation

The aviation security industry is subject to extensive governmental regulation, the impact of which is difficult to predict.

The Aviation and Transportation Security Act (the "Security Act") has had a significant negative impact on our aviation security business in the USA. In addition, our ability to successfully market new systems will be dependent upon government regulations over which we have no control. Any existing or new regulation may cause us to incur increased expenses or impose substantial liability upon us. The likelihood of such new legislation is difficult to predict.

Legislation designed to protect privacy rights

From time to time, personal identity databases and technologies utilizing such databases have been the focus of organizations and individuals seeking to curtail or eliminate the use of personal identity information technologies on the grounds that personal information and these technologies may be used to diminish personal privacy rights. In the event that such initiatives result in restrictive legislation, the market for our products may be adversely affected. In addition, in the event that the Company fails to detect terrorist activity as a result of legislation designed to protect privacy rights, the market for our products may be adversely affected.

Licenses for operations

A license to operate is required from the airport authority in the airports in which we currently operate. The loss of, or failure to obtain, a license to operate in one or more of such airports could result in the loss of, or the inability to compete for, contracts in the airports in which we have licenses.

Poor Economic Conditions

Current economic conditions could adversely affect our business. Deterioration in the global economic environment may result in decreased demand for our services. Weakening economic conditions could also affect our customers, which may result in redirection of their request for our reviews.

Currency risk

A substantial portion of our revenue is generated in foreign countries. We generally retain our income in local currency at the location the funds are received. Since our financial statements are presented in United States dollars, any significant fluctuation in the currency exchange rate between such currency and the United States dollar would affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Limitations in price share

The market price of our common stock may from time to time be significantly affected by a large number of factors, including, among others, variations in our operating results, the depth and liquidity of the trading market for our shares, and differences between actual results of operations and the results anticipated by investors and securities analysts. Many of the factors which affect the market price of our common stock are outside of our control and may not even be directly related to us.

The market price of our common stock may be volatile, which may make it more difficult for you to resell your shares when you want at prices you find attractive.

Main shareholders

As of December 31, 2016, there are three shareholders who individually hold more than 5% of the Company’s shares. All of them together hold approximately 77.6% of our shares (excluding conversion rights). Their interests could conflict with yours. In addition, significant sales of shares held by them could have a negative effect on our stock price.

The MacPherson Trust and Mr. M.J. Atzmon, own or control together approximately 71.8% of our issued and outstanding common stock (excluding conversion rights). As a result of such ownership and conversion rights, the MacPherson Trust together with Mr. Atzmon are able to significantly influence and / or control all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Such concentration may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control. Mr. Atzmon, the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, disclaims any benefit or interest in the MacPherson Trust.

Dividends

We do not expect to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Laws in the Netherlands

Our corporate affairs are governed by our Articles of Association and by the laws governing corporations incorporated in the Netherlands. Our public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions by the Supervisory Board or the Management Board, or their members, or controlling shareholders, than they would as shareholders of a company incorporated in the United States. Pursuant to mandatory Dutch corporate law, adoption of our annual accounts by the general meeting of shareholders does not automatically discharge the Supervisory Board and Management Board and their members from liability in respect of the exercise of their duties for the particular financial year. In order to discharge the Supervisory Board and Management Board and their members from liability a separate resolution thereto needs to be adopted by the general meeting of shareholders (which resolution can be adopted in the same meeting in which the annual accounts will be adopted). Such discharge of the Supervisory Board and the Management Board and their members by the shareholders is subject to the provisions of Dutch law, including provisions relating to liability of members of supervisory boards and management boards upon the bankruptcy of a company pursuant to the relevant provisions of the Dutch Civil Code and is furthermore not absolute and will not be effective as to matters misrepresented or not disclosed to the shareholders. Nor will such discharge shield managing or supervisory directors from external liablility i.e. by creditors or trustee for matters of tort or maladministration. An individual member of the Supervisory Board or the Management Board who can prove that he is not at fault for such an omission or misrepresentation would not be liable, or in case of external liability if he additionally can prove that he has taken measures to prevent the consequences of the shortcomings of the Board.

U.S. judgments may not be enforceable in the Netherlands

A significant number of our activities are located outside the United States. In addition, members of the Management and Supervisory Boards and certain experts named herein are residents of countries other than the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons or to enforce against such persons judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities under the United States federal securities laws.

There is no treaty between the United States and the Netherlands for the mutual recognition and enforcement of judgments (other than arbitration awards) in civil and commercial matters. Therefore, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any federal or state court in the United States based on civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the federal securities laws, would not be directly enforceable in the Netherlands. The party that wishes to enforce such judgment in the Netherlands will have to institute second proceedings before a competent court in the Netherlands in order to obtain a similar decision that is capable of enforcement. A court in the Netherlands will, under current practice, normally issue a judgment incorporating the judgment rendered by the United States court if it finds that (i) the United States court assumed jurisdiction on international recognized grounds, (ii) the judgment was obtained in compliance with principles of due process, (iii) the judgment is final and conclusive and (iv) recognition of the judgment does not contravene the public policy or public order of the Netherlands. We cannot assure you that United States investors will be able to enforce any judgments in civil and commercial matters, including judgments under the federal securities laws against us or members of the Management or Supervisory Board (or certain experts named herein) who are residents of the Netherlands or countries other than the United States. In addition, a court in the Netherlands might not impose civil liability on us or on the members of the Management or Supervisory Boards in an original action predicated solely upon the federal securities laws of the United States brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the Netherlands.

Item 4. Information on the Company

Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references herein to the "Company" or "ICTS" include ICTS International N.V., and its subsidiaries.

History and Development of the Company

Aviation Security and Other Aviation Services Business

ICTS is a public limited liability company organized under the laws of The Netherlands in 1992. Our offices are located at Walaardt Sacréstraat 425-4, 1117 BM Schiphol-Oost, The Netherlands and its telephone number is +31-20-347-1077.

In the wake of the events which occurred on September 11, 2001, the Federal Government of the United States, in November, 2001, enacted the Security Act Public Law 107-71. Under the Security Act, entities may provide aviation security services in the United States only if they are owned and controlled at least 75% by U.S. citizens. As a company organized under the laws of the Netherlands, ICTS is not able to comply with the ownership requirements under the Security Act. The Security Act is administered through the TSA.

In the fourth quarter of 2002, pursuant to the Security Act, the Federal government through the TSA, took over substantially all of the aviation security operations in U.S. airports. As a result, ICTS, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Huntleigh, provides limited aviation security services in the United States.

In 2001 and 2002, ICTS sold substantially all of its European operations in two stages, for an aggregate purchase price of $103 million. As a result of the sale, ICTS fully divested itself at that time from its European operations, except for its operations in the Netherlands and Russia.

In February 2005 the Company re-entered the European aviation security market. In March 2005, the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary, I-SEC International Security B.V. (“I-SEC”), under which all the European aviation security activities provided by ICTS are operated. Since then I-SEC established new subsidiaries throughout Europe and the Far East.

Technology Business

Our technology business is primarily involved in the development and sale of identity security software to financial and other institutions, in Europe and the United States.

I-SEC aviation security consulting services

Risk analysis

A comprehensive risk analysis is the essential, primary component of any security system.

The identification of the risks relevant to the particular site or operation, and their grading according to their potential damage and probability enables to develop the security concept and design the security system that will effectively deal with these risks.

I-SEC employs security experts specializing in the performance of risk analyses in a variety of threat environments. When analysing risks, all relevant factors relating to the client, the operation, the environment, and potentially hostile elements are taken into account, to ensure the risks are fully and accurately mapped.

Security Concept Development

In order to enable the development of a cost-effective security system, that optimally meets the client's specific needs, an aviation security system must be constructed on the basis of a well thought-out security concept, which takes into consideration all relevant aspects and variables.

As the development and implementation of a comprehensive security system requires substantial resources, it is crucial that these be invested in the most productive way, in accordance with predetermined priorities.

When developing the aviation security concept, I-SEC specialists take into account the results of the risk analysis and the developing and anticipated changes and trends in the threat environment, to arrive at a concept that will be suitable for the predictable future, and easy to adapt in later years.

Security system design

I-SEC security experts possess broad experience in the design and development of modular, aviation security systems, customized to meet local needs and complying with international standards. Designed systems are both flexible and dynamic in nature, ensuring that any adaptations required to meet changes in the threat environment in the future can be carried out quickly, with minimal investment of effort and funds.

System development also covers the definition of needs in the areas of manpower, technical means and advanced technologies, with the aim of attaining the optimal balance, thus maximizing both efficiency and savings in operational and staffing costs. Our experts also assist the client to determine priorities in implementation, as a function of the prioritized needs and the available resources. Assistance in the recruitment of security managers and staff based on predefined standards is also offered.

Implementation and assimilation

For over two decades, I-SEC specialists have been assisting their clients to implement and assimilate proven work methods and security solutions designed on the basis of extensive know-how and experience, and tailored to meet their specific needs.

The client's staff members, at all levels, are trained to perform their relevant tasks, and are provided with ongoing consulting and support to ensure the smooth running of security operations.

Security surveys and audits

I-SEC's expert security consultants specializes in the performance of airports security surveys, the scope of which is determined together with the client, and can range from individual aspects of airport security to comprehensive, all-encompassing surveys.

Special attention is focused on verification of compliance with all applicable regulations and presentation of recommendations regarding any amendments that may be required. Security surveys are particularly important as a step in the upgrading of an existing system – only by accurately mapping the existing system, all its components, strengths and weaknesses, is it possible to determine the required modifications.

As security systems are only effective if they continue to address existing and anticipated threats, and to fully comply with international and local regulatory requirements, periodical aviation security audits are of vital importance. I-SEC experts possess vast international experience in the performance of such audits, and recommending steps that must be taken to ensure full compliance and suitability of the aviation security system at all times.

Aviation Security Technology

In the interest of enabling its client to maintain the required level of security while reducing operational costs, I-SEC utilizes several innovative, proprietary means.

NAPS (New Advanced Passenger Screening)

NAPS is a sophisticated IT system that enables pre-departure analysis of passenger information and is designed to help screen airline passengers in a faster and more efficient manner. It was developed based on the extensive experience and knowledge accumulated by the Company’s professionals.

In addition, the Company committed to a plan to cease operations of its subsidiary in Belgium (I-SEC Belgium). All of the subsidiaries provided aviation security services in the respective countries.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company committed to a plan to cease the operations of its subsidiary in Switzerland (I-SEC Switzerland) which provided aviation security services.

Major Customers

Revenue from two customers represented 75% of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2016 of which one customer accounted for 42% of total revenue. Accounts receivable from these two customers represented 70% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016.

Revenue from two customers represented 70% of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2015, of which one customer accounted for 37% and the other customer accounts for 33% of total revenue. Accounts receivable from these two customers represented 64% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2015.

Revenue from two customers represented 67% of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2014, of which one customer accounted for 38% of total revenue and the other customer accounted for 29% of total revenue. Accounts receivable from these two customers represented 65% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014.

Both customers mentioned above, have been principle customers in the last three years.

Revenue

Revenue in the U.S.

Our revenue in the United States during the years 2016, 2015 and 2014 totaled $47.7 million (19% of total revenue), $41.8 million (22% of total revenue) and $40 million (23% of total revenue), respectively.

Revenue in Europe, Japan and other locations

Our revenue in Europe, Japan and other locations during the years 2016, 2015 and 2014 totaled $207.8 million (81% of total revenue), $145.2 million (78% of total revenue) and $132.9 million (77% of total revenue), respectively.

Competition

Competition in the aviation security and aviation related services industry as well as in the technology industry is intense. Many of our competitors have greater financial, technical and marketing resources.

We expect that our competitors will develop and market alternative systems and technologies that may have greater functionality or be more cost effective than the services we provide or the systems that we may develop. If our competitors develop such systems we may not be able to successfully market our systems. Even if we are able to develop systems with greater functionality, which are more cost effective than those developed by our competitors, we may not be able to achieve market acceptance of our systems because our competitors have greater financial and marketing resources.

Aviation Security Regulatory Matters

Our aviation security activities are subject to various regulations imposed by authorities and various local and federal agencies having jurisdiction in the serviced area. The Company, on behalf of its clients, is responsible for adherence to such regulations relating to certain security aspects of their activities. The Company is also responsible to prevent passengers without proper travel documentation from boarding a flight, thereby avoiding fines otherwise imposed on its clients by immigration authorities.

We are subject to random periodic tests by government authorities with regard to the professional level of its services and training. Any failure to pass such a test may result in the loss of a contract or a license to perform services or a fine or both.

Overview

The Company operates in three reportable segments (a) corporate (b) airport security and other aviation services and (c) technology. The corporate segment does not generate revenue and contains primarily non-operational expenses. The airport security and other aviation services segment provide security and other services to airlines and airport authorities, predominantly in Europe and the United States. The technology segment is predominantly involved in the development and sale of identity security software to financial and other institutions, in Europe and the United States. All inter-segment transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as the accounting policies of the Company as a whole.

Critical Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our critical accounting policies that require the use of judgment and estimates are listed below. Please refer to Note 2 of ICTS's consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2016 for a summary of ICTS's significant accounting policies.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent amounts due to the Company for services rendered and are recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on historical collection experience, factors related to a specific customer and current economic trends. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the balance is determined to be uncollectible.

Investments

The Company follows Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, of FASB ASC. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value should be based on assumptions that market participants would use.

In determining the fair value, the Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Companies have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, other than goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses recoverability by determining whether the net book value of the related asset will be recovered through the projected undiscounted future cash flows of the asset. If the Company determines that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable, it measures any impairment based on the fair value of the asset as compared to its carrying value.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets of an acquired business. Goodwill is assessed for impairment by reporting unit on an annual basis or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The assessment begins with an analysis of qualitative factors as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If it is determined that goodwill should be reviewed for impairment, then a discounted cash flow analysis is performed to determine whether the goodwill is recoverable. If the carrying value of the goodwill is not recoverable based upon the discounted cash flow analysis, then an impairment charge is recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the goodwill.

Contingent Liabilities

The Company is subject to various investigations, claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the normal course of its business activities. Liabilities for such contingencies are recognized when: (a) information available prior to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability had been incurred at the date of the consolidated financial statements and (b) the amount of loss can reasonably be estimated.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation to employees, including stock options, are measured at the fair value of the award on the date of grant based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The compensation expense resulting from stock-based compensation to management and administrative employees is recorded over the vesting period of the award in selling, general and administrative expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Compensation expense resulting from stock based compensation to operational employees is recorded over the vesting period of the award in cost of revenue.

Stock-based compensation issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the stock-based compensation, whichever is more readily determinable.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized as services are rendered based on the terms contained in the Company’s contractual arrangements with customers, provided that services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when realization of net deferred tax assets is not considered more likely than not.

Uncertain income tax positions are determined based upon the likelihood of the positions being sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which management believes it is more likely than not that the position will not be sustained. Income tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Income tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of income tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized if challenged by the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with income tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured is reflected as income taxes payable.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense increased from $0.1 million or 0.1% to $1.0 millon 0.4% in 2016. Increase in income tax expense relates primarily to our operations in one of the European countries in which the Company used all its losses for tax purposes from previous years and as its operations are profitable, income taxes are due.

Year Ended December 31, 2015 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2014

Revenue

Total revenue increased from $172.9 million in 2014 to $187.0 million in 2015.

Revenue generated in the Netherlands was $72.2 million in 2015 compared to $69.7 million in 2014.

Revenue generated in the United States of America was $41.8 million in 2015 compared to $40.0 million in 2014. The increase of revenue generated in the United States was primarily a result of additional services provided to different customers and increases in prices of certain services provided by the Company.

Revenue outside the Netherlands, Germany and the United States totaled $11.2 million in 2015 compared to $13.5 million in 2014. The decrease in revenue from other locations was primarily a result of fewer services required by customers in certain locations.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue increased from $152.2 million or 88.0% in 2014 to $167.8 million or 89.7% in 2015. Increases from $152.2 million to $167.8 million relates primarily to increase in revenues in the Netherlands and Germany and costs relating to the extended contracts in those countries. In addition, in August 2015, following a decision of the State Supreme Court of Washington regarding increase of the minimum wages for the town of SeaTac, Washington, effective January 1, 2014, the Company recorded an accrual for this liability of which $3.0 million is expensed in cost of revenue.

Research and Development expenses (“R&D”)

R&D expenses increased from $2.2 million or 1.3% in 2014 to $2.6 million or 1.4% in 2015. The increase relates mostly to increases in the number of employees working in our technology segment.

Other income (expense), net totaled $(0.8) million in 2015 compared to $0.4 million in 2014. Interest expense to a related party increased from $2.3 million in 2014 to $2.6 million in 2015. Borrowings from a related party continued to increase during the year 2015 thus increasing the interest expense related to that loan.

Interest expense and bank charges increased from $1.1 million in 2014 to $1.4 million in 2015, primarily because of an increase in the usage of the lines of credit in Europe and the United States.

Foreign currency gain in 2015 was $3.1 million in 2015 compared to $3.7 million in 2014. During 2015 the exchange rate between the Dollar and the Euro dropped from 1.21 Dollar per Euro as of December 31, 2014 to 1.09 Dollar per Euro as of December 31, 2015, a decrease of approximately 10%. As substantial balances of the Company’s liabilities are in Euro’s, the Company recorded a foreign currency gain in 2015. In 2014 the exchange rate between the Dollar and the Euro decreased by 12% which created higher foreign currency profit.

Income Tax Benefit (Expense)

The Company had income tax expense of $(0.1) million both in 2015 and 2014.

Corporate Segment

The Company’s loss from continuing operations in the corporate segment increased from $3.2 million in 2015 to $6.1 million in 2016. The increase is primarily due to the following: (a) increase in the interest rate to related party. Total interest to related party was $4.2 million in 2016 compared to $2.6 million in 2015. (b) In 2015 the Company had a foreign currency gain of $3.1 million compared to $1.0 million in 2016.

The Company’s loss from continuing operations in the corporate segment increased from $0.1 million in 2014 to $3.2 million in 2015. The increase is primarily due to the following: (a) bonuses granted to certain officers in 2015 totaling $1.6 million compared to $0 in 2014.(b) Grant of $0.7 million to the Chairman of the Supervisory Board as compensation for the last eleven years. (c) Decrease of exchange rate income by $0.6 million.

Airport Security and Other Aviation Services Segment

Increases in revenue from $185.5 million in 2015 to $252.9 million in 2016 relates primarily to: (a) an increase of revenues in Germany from $61.8 million in 2015 to $108.7 million in 2016. (b) An increase of revenues in the Netherlands from $72.2 million in 2015 to $87.3 million in 2016. (c) An increase of revenues in the United States of America from $41.8 million in 2015 to $47.7 million in 2016.

In 2016, the Company’s income from continuing operations related to aviation services was $10.7 million compared to $1.6 million in 2015. As the Company increases its revenue in existing locations, its able to better utilize its manpower and its expenses and by that, increases its profitability.

Increase in revenue from $172.1 million in 2014 to $185.5 million in 2015 relates primarily to: (a) an increase of revenues in Germany from $49.8 million in 2014 to $61.8 million in 2015. (b) An increase of revenues in the Netherlands from $69.7 million in 2014 to $72.2 million in 2015.

Revenue generated in the Netherlands, Germany and some other European countries was affected by exchange rate fluctuations as the average rate of the Euro-Dollar decreased by 16.5% in 2015 compared to 2014.

In 2015, the Company’s income from continuing operations related to aviation services was $1.6 million compared to $5.1 million in 2014. The 2015 profit includes an expense of $3.3 million relating to a minimum wage increase in SeaTac Airport, Washington, USA, following a recent decision of the Washington State Supreme Court. According to the court’s decision, the minimum wage increase is effective from January 1, 2014. The Company has estimated that it has a liability of approximately $3.3 million for back wages and accrued interest and has recorded in 2015 an accrual for this liability.

Technology Segment

Revenue in 2016 was $2.7 million compared to $1.5 million in 2015. The loss from continuing operations amounted to $2.3 million in 2016 compared to $3.1 million in 2015.

Revenue in 2015 was $1.5 million compared to $0.8 million in 2014. The loss from continuing operations amounted to $3.1 million in 2015 compared to $3.5 million in 2014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s most significant expenditures consist of payroll, related costs, interest and professional fees. The Company has historically financed such expenditures through cash flows from operations, funding received from lines of credit with lenders in the United States and Europe and borrowings from a convertible note arrangement with a related party.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had cash on hand of $3.9 million and $7.9 million, respectively, not including restricted cash of $3.8 million and $4.4 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 the restricted cash serves as collateral for our letters of credit in the United States and restricted bank accounts in the Netherlands, which are restricted for payments to local tax authorities.

The Company has a working capital and shareholders’ deficits. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively and shareholders’ deficit of $33.5 million and $42.2 million, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred net income (loss) from continuing operations of $2.3 million, $(4.7) million and $1.5 million, respectively, and provided cash flows from operations of $3.5 million, $1.5 million and $4.1 million, respectively.

The Company’s business plan projects income from operations and compliance with all financial covenants. Management believes that this plan is achievable and that they will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations. Management also believes that it will receive continued support from their lenders and majority shareholder in financing operations. Ther can be no assurance that management will be successful in achieving its bussiness plan.

In May 2014, the Company increased its borrowing capacity under the convertible notes payable to related party to $37.0 million. In January 2016 the Company signed a new line of credit arrangement to replace the previous agreement with a commercial bank. According to the new agreement the line of credit increased up to €10.0 million. In December 2016 the Company and the commercial bank agreed to increase the Company’s line of credit to €12.0 million ($12.7 million as of December 31, 2016)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Our cash flows from operating activities vary significantly from year to year, depending on our operating results and timing of cash receipts and disbursements on accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2016 was $3.5 million. This provided cash resulted primarily from net income of $2.3 million, non-cash accrued interest convertible notes payable to related party of $4.8 million and a non-cash charge of $0.9 million for depreciation and amortization. Net cash used in continuing operating assets and liabilities of $4.3 million is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable of $8.8 million.

This was offset mainly by increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $2.0 million, increases in income taxes payable of $1.0 million and increases in VAT payable of $0.9 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2015 was $1.5 million. This provided cash resulted primarily from net loss of $4.7 million, a non-cash accrued interest on convertible notes payable to a related party of $2.6 million and a non-cash charge of $0.7 million for depreciation and amortization. Net cash provided by continuing operating assets and liabilities of $2.8 million is primarily attributable to an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $9.1 million, increase of accounts payable of $0.5 million and increase of VAT payable of $0.5 million. This was offset by an increase in accounts receivable, net, of $6.3 million and an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.0 million.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2014 was $4.1 million. This provided cash resulted primarily from net income from continuing operations of $1.5 million, non-cash accrued interest on convertible notes to a related party of $2.3 million and a non-chash charge of $0.8 million for depreciation and amortization. Net cash used in continuing operating assets and liabilities of $0.4 million is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable, net of $6.9 million, payments made to the U.S. Department of Labor of $0.3 million and decrease in other liabilities of $0.4 million. This was offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $5.4 million increase of accounts payable of $0.7 million and increase of VAT payable of $1.2 million. Net cash used in discontinued operations in 2014 was $0.1 million.

Borrowings

United States

The Company was a party to a credit facility with a commercial lender, which provided it with up to $10.5 million in borrowings subject to a borrowing base limitation. The borrowing base limitation was equivalent to: (i) 80% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, plus (ii) 70% of eligible unbilled receivables, as defined, plus (iii) 100% of the Company’s $3.5 million in cash collateral plus (iv) 95% of a $1.0 million standby letter of credit that was provided to the lender by an entity related to the Company’s main shareholder (see note 12). Borrowings under the credit facility were secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, equipment, cash, a $3.5 million certificate of deposit, and the $1.0 million letter of credit that was provided to the lender by an entity related to the Company’s main shareholder.

In June 2014, the Company amended the credit facility to decrease the maximum borrowing capacity to $6.5 million and amend existing financial and non-financial covenants, including the maintenance of a specified fixed charge coverage ratio. The borrowing base limitation was also amended and is equivalent to: (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, plus (ii) 75% of eligible unbilled receivables, as defined, plus (iii) 95% of a $1.0 million standby letter of credit that was provided to the lender by an entity related to the Company’s main shareholder. In addition, as part of the amendment, the Company’s $3.5 million cash collateral was released and used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the credit facility.

In March 2015, the Company amended it’s credit facility with its lender. The amendment revised existing financial covenants, including the maintenance of a specified fix charge coverage ratio and maintenance of minimum monthly EBITDA requirements. As of December 31, 2015 the Company was in violation of its financial covenants. As of March 2016, the lender waived the violation.

On July 2016, the Company amended the credit facility to increase the maximum borrowing capacity to $8.5 million. The amendment also revised the existing fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant. The credit facility expires on June 24, 2018. As of December 31, 2016, the company was in compliance with all required debt covenants.

Borrowings made under the credit facility bear interest, which is payable monthly, at LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.375%) plus 4.25% per annum (5.625% as of December 31, 2016).

Related party financing

In May 2014, the Company entered into an arrangement with an entity related to its main shareholder, which replaced all previous arrangements between the parties, to provide it with up to $37 million in revolving loans through December 2016. The term of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six-month periods at the option of the holder. All outstanding borrowings from previous arrangements were applied to the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement. Loans received under the arrangement bear interest, which is compounded semi-annually and payable at maturity, at the interest rate charged by the Company’s European commercial bank (LIBOR plus 6% for U.S. dollar-denominated loans and the base rate plus 2% for Euro-denominated loans). The arrangement is secured by a 26% interest in one of the Company's European subsidiaries. In connection with the arrangement, the holder was granted an option to convert outstanding notes payable (including accrued interest) under the arrangement into the Company's common stock at a price of $1.50 per share.

In September 2016, the Supervisory Board of Directors approved an increase in the interest rate of the loan from the entity related to the main shareholder, by one percent, retroactively for the whole period of the loan. The interest recognized in 2016 regarding increase of the previous years interest rate totaled $1.2 million.

Background and Compensation Philosophy

Our Compensation Committee consists of Gail Lieberman, Chairman and Gordon Hausmann, all independent directors. The Compensation Committee and, prior to its establishment our Supervisory Board of Directors determined the compensation to be paid to our executive officers based on our financial and operating performance and prospects, the level of compensation paid to similarly situated executives in comparably sized companies, and contributions made by the officers’ to our success. Each of the named officers will be measured by a series of performance criteria by the Supervisory Board of directors, or the compensation committee on a yearly basis. Such criteria will be set forth based on certain objective parameters such as job characteristics, required professionalism, management skills, interpersonal skills, related experience, personal performance and overall corporate performance.

Our Supervisory Board of Directors and Compensation Committee have not adopted or established a formal policy or procedure for determining the amount of compensation paid to our executive officers. The Compensation Committee makes an independent evaluation of appropriate compensation of key employees, with input from management. The Compensation Committee has oversight of executive compensation plans, policies and programs.

Our compensation program for our executive officers and all other employees is designed such that it will not incentivize unnecessary risk-taking. The base salary component of our compensation program is a fixed amount and does not depend on performance. Our cash incentive program takes into account multiple metrics, thus diversifying the risk associated with any single performance metric, and we believe it does not incentivize our executive officers to focus exclusively on short-term outcomes. Our equity awards are limited by the terms of our equity plans to a fixed maximum specified in the plan, and are subject to vesting to align the long-term interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders.

Elements of Compensation

We provide our executive officers with a base salary and certain bonuses to compensate them for services rendered during the year. Our policy of compensating our executives with a cash salary has served us well.

Board Practices

We have a Supervisory Board and a Management Board. The Supervisory Board has the primary responsibility for supervising the policies of the Management Board and the general course of corporate affairs and recommending the adoption of the annual financial statements of ICTS by its shareholders. The Management Board is responsible for the day-to-day operations of ICTS. Members of the Supervisory Board and the Management Board are appointed by the shareholders for a term of one year. Non-executive officers are appointed by and serve at the satisfaction of the Management Board.

The members of the Supervisory Board as of December 31, 2016 and the initial year they joined the Supervisory Board are as follows: Menachem Atzmon (1999), David W. Sass (2002), Philip M. Getter (2003), Gordon Hausmann (2005) and Gail F. Lieberman (2010).

The Audit Committee consists of Philip M. Getter, Chairman, Gail F. Lieberman and Gordon Hausmann, all of whom are independent. Mr. Getter and Ms. Lieberman have financial expertise. The audit committee evaluates ICTS's accounting policies and practices and financial reporting and internal control structures, selects independent auditors to audit the Company’s financial statements and confers with the auditors and the officers. The Audit Committee has an Operating Charter as well.

We do not have a Nominating Committee. The members of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee are all independent and were never officers or employees of the Company.

The Supervisory Board of the Company has adopted a Code of Ethics for principal Executive Officers, Directors and senior financial officers.

The Articles of Association of ICTS require at least one member of both the Management Board and the Supervisory Board, but do not specify a maximum number of members for such boards. The general meeting of shareholders determines the exact number of members of both the Management Board and the Supervisory Board. Under the laws of the Netherlands and the Articles of Association, each member of the Supervisory Board and Management Board holds office until such member's resignation, death or removal, with or without cause, by the shareholders.

Employees

As of December 31, 2016, the Company has 6,603 employees, of which 4,458 employees are located in Europe, Far East and Israel and 2,145 are located in the United States.

Share Ownership

See tables under Item 7: "Major Shareholders" and "Related Party Transactions" below.

Options to Purchase Securities

In February 2005, the Company adopted the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan and reserved 1,500,000 shares of common stock for future issuance. The plan expired in 2015 (the "Plan").

As of December 31, 2016 there are 150,000 options outstanding under the plan. As the plan expired there are no more options available for grant under this plan.

On December 2008 shareholders adopted the 2008 Employee, Director and Commitment Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan provides a means whereby employees, officers, directors, and certain consultants and independent contractors of the Company ("Qualified Grantees") may acquire the Common Shares of the Company pursuant to grants of (i) Incentive Stock Options ("ISO") and (ii) "non-qualified stock options". A summary of the significant provisions of the Plan is set forth below. The following description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan itself.

The purpose of the Plan is to further the long-term stability, continuing growth and financial success of the Company by attracting and retaining key employees, directors and selected advisors through the use of stock incentives, while stimulating the efforts of these individuals upon whose judgment and interest the Company is and will be largely dependent for the successful conduct of its business. The Company believes that the Plan will strengthen these individuals' desire to remain with the Company and will further the identification of their interests with those of the Company's shareholders.

The Plan provides that options to purchase up to 1,500,000 Common Shares of the Company may be issued to the employees and outside directors. All present and future employees shall be eligible to receive incentive awards under the Plan, and all present and future non-employee directors shall be eligible to receive non-statutory options under the Plan. An eligible employee or non-employee director shall be notified in writing, stating the number of shares for which options are granted, the option price per share, and conditions surrounding the grant and exercise of the options.

The exercise price of shares of Company Stock covered by an ISO shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant; provided that if an ISO is granted to an employee who, at the time of the grant, is a 10% shareholder, then the exercise price of the shares covered by the incentive stock option shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant. The exercise price of shares covered by a non-qualified stock option shall be not less than 85% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee

As of December 31, 2016, there were no outstanding options under the plan. Options available for grant under the plan are 1,500,000. The plan expires in 2018.

In June 2016 one of the Company’s subsidiaries granted 228,000 options to certain employees of one of the Company’s subsidiaries. The fair value of the subsidiary’s stock as evaluated by a third party was zero as of the day of the grant. Options were granted at an exercise price of €0.01.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The rules governing the U.S. federal tax treatment of stock options, restricted stock and shares acquired upon the exercise of stock options are quite technical. Therefore, the description of U.S. federal income tax consequences set forth below is necessarily general in nature and does not purport to be complete.

Moreover, the statutory provisions are subject to change, as are their interpretations, and their application may vary in individual circumstances. In particular, the “American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” imposed rules concerning the taxation of various deferred compensation arrangements. It is not clear whether, and to what extent, these rules apply to awards under the Plan. Although the Comapny does not believe that awards under the Plan are affected by the rules, there can be no assurance to that effect until adequate guidance is forthcoming fromthe U.S. Treasury Department. Finally, the tax consequences under applicable state, local and foreign income tax laws may not be the same as under the U.S. federal income tax laws.

Incentive Stock Options

ISOs granted pursuant to the Plan are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code. If the participant makes no disposition of the shares acquired pursuant to exercise of an ISO within one year after the transfer of shares to such participant and within two years from grant of the option, such participant will realize no taxable income as a result of the grant or exercise of such option, and any gain or loss that is subsequently realized may be treated as long-term capital gain or loss, as the case may be. Under these circumstances, neither the Company nor any subsidiary will be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes with respect to either the issuance of the ISOs or the issuance of shares upon their exercise.

If shares acquired upon exercise of ISOs are disposed of prior to the expiration of the above time periods, the participant will recognize ordinary income in the year in which the disqualifying disposition occurs, the amount of which will generally be the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the option price, or (ii) the gain recognized on such disposition. Such amount will ordinarily be deductible for federal income tax purposes by the Company or subsidiary for which the participant performs services ("service recipient") in the same year, provided that the amount constitutes reasonable compensation for services that would result in a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that certain federal income tax withholding requirements are satisfied. In addition, the excess, if any, of the amount realized on a disqualifying disposition over the market value of the shares on the date of exercise will be treated as capital gain.

The foregoing discussion does not consider the impact of the alternative minimum tax, which may be particularly applicable to the year in which an ISO is exercised.

Non-qualified Stock Options

A participant who acquires shares by exercise of Non Qualified Stock Options generally realizes as taxable ordinary income, at the time of exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise. Such amount will ordinarily be deductible by the service recipient for federal income tax purposes in the same year, provided that the amount constitutes reasonable compensation for services that would result in a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that certain federal income tax withholding requirements are satisfied. Subsequent appreciation or decline in the value of the shares on the sale or other disposition of the shares will generally be treated as capital gain or loss.

Restricted Stock

A participant granted shares of restricted stock under the Plan is not required to include the value of such shares in ordinary income until the first time such participant's rights in the shares are transferable or are not subject to substantial risk of forfeiture, whichever occurs earlier, unless such participant timely files an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code to be taxed on the receipt of the shares.

In either case, the amount of such income will be equal to the excess of the fair market value of the stock at the time the income is recognized over the amount (if any) paid for the stock.

The service recipient will ordinarily be entitled to a deduction, in the amount of the ordinary income recognized by the participant, for the service recipient's taxable year in which the participant recognizes such income, provided that the amount constitutes reasonable compensation for services that would result in a deduction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and that certain federal income tax withholding requirements are satisfied.

Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions

Major Shareholders

The following table sets forth certain information regarding ownership of the Company's Common Shares as of April 15, 2017 with respect to:

(1) Each person who is known by the Company to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company's outstanding Common Shares.

(2) All directors and officers as a group.

	Percent of
	Amount Beneficially			Common Shares
Name Shareholders Holding Five Percent or More	Owned (a)			Outstanding (b)

MacPherson Trust ©		57.6	%		12,085,528

Menachem J. Atzmon		14.3	%		3,000,000

Igal Tavori		5.7	%		1,202,483

All officers and directors as a group and the MacPherson Trust (9 persons).		85.1	%		17,871,574

(a) As to each shareholder, the percentage is calculated using the amount beneficially owned by such shareholder divided by the number of total outstanding common shares and the shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of options exercisable within 60 days from the date of the grant, if any held by such shareholder. Common shares subject to options that are immediately exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of the grant are deemed outstanding for computing the ownership percentage of the shareholder holding such options, but are not deemed outstanding for computing the ownership of any other shareholders.

(b) The amounts include common shares owned by each of the above, directly or indirectly.

(c) 1. The MacPherson Trust (“Trust”) was created for the benefit of the family of Mr. Menachem J. Atzmon. The Trust owns Spencer Corporation, Limited, which holds together with the Trust approximately 57.6% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on behalf of the Trust. Mr. Atzmon disclaims any beneficial interest in the MacPherson Trust. Spencer Corporation, Limited and the MacPherson Trust together with Mr. Atzmon are able to appoint all the directors of ICTS and control the affairs of ICTS.

2. As of April 15, 2017 the Company received loans from a related party in the total amount of $25.7 million and accrued interest of $10.5 million. The principle is convertible to the Company’s common stock at a rate of $1.50 per share and the accrued interest is convertible at a rate of $0.75 per share. The calculation above does not take into consideration the conversion of those loans.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

All ongoing and future transactions between the Company and any of our officers and directors and their respective affiliates, including loans by our officers and directors, will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable than are available from unaffiliated third parties. Such transactions or loans, including any forgiveness of loans, will require prior approval by the Audit Committee (whose members are independent directors) and by a majority of our disinterested independent directors (to the extent we have any) or the members of our Supervisory Board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel. We will not enter into any such transaction unless our disinterested and independent directors determine that the terms of such transaction are no less favorable to us than those that would be available to us with respect to such a transaction from unaffiliated third parties. We will not enter into a business combination or invest alongside any of our directors, officers, any affiliate of ours or of any of our directors or officers or a portfolio company of any affiliate of our directors or officers.

Legal Proceedings

September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks

As a result of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, numerous lawsuits charging the Company with wrongful death and/or property damage were commenced in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York (the “Court”), resulting from certain airport security services provided by the Company for United Flight 175 out of Logan Airport in Boston, Massachusetts.

All the wrongful death personal injury cases have been settled or dismissed at no cost to the Company because the payments were covered by the Company’s insurance. The Court approved the settlements.

All but one of the property loss cases also has been settled at no cost to the Company, because the payments were covered by the Company’s insurance. One of the property loss cases remain pending against, among others, the Company. The Court granted defendants motion for summary judgments that the plaintiffs have appealed and oral arguments have been held. The plaintiffs in the case are seeking reimbursement for claimed damages relating to their lease of the towers. The defendants are hopeful that the remaining property loss cases will be dismissed.

In any event, the Company has already paid the limits of its liability insurance in settlement costs. The Company contends that a federal statute passed after the events of September 11, 2001 protects it from having to make any further monetary payments, regardless of whether it is found liable in any of the remaining cases.

Claims by former employees

The Company is subject to wrongful termination claims made by certain former employees of one of its European subsidiaries. The aggregate amount of such claims is approximately $711. At the present time, the Company is not able to determine the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or estimate a range of potential loss related to these matters.

Minimum wage increase

In August 2015, the Company was informed about a court decision, which approved an increase to the minimum wage for the city of SeaTac, Washington (location of Seattle Airport). The increase to the minimum wage was originally approved by a vote in King County, Washington in 2013 (to be effective January 1, 2014). However, a court ruled that SeaTac employees were excluded from this increase because the airport was under the jurisdiction of the Port of Seattle and not the city of SeaTac. In August 2015, this decision was overturned by the State Supreme Court and accordingly, the Company is required to increase the minimum wage of its employees at the SeaTac Airport according to the court decision, effective January 1, 2014. The Company has estimated that it has a total liability of approximately $3,600 for back wages (inclusive of interest amounting to approximately $600) as of December 31, 2016 and has recorded an accrual for this liability.

As the increase in minimum wage was not paid yet to the employees, an employee of the Company filed a class action lawsuit against the Company, in the United States District Court, Western District of Washington. The employee alleges the Company failed to pay the proper SeaTac minimum wage. Plaintiffs served written discovery to the individual defendants. Additional two lawsuits were filed against the Company in the Circuit Court for King County, State of Washington, on the same subject.

General

The Company is subject to various investigations, claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business activities. These claims are primarily related to grievances filed by current and former employees for unfair labor practices or discrimination, and for passenger aviation claims. Management recognizes a liability for any matter when the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is deemed to be probable and the amount is able to be reasonably estimated. Management has concluded that such claims, in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Item 10. Additional Information

Articles of Association

Introduction

The material provisions of the Company's Articles of Association are summarized below. Such summaries do not purport to be complete statements of these provisions and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibit. The Company was registered by the Department of Justice at Amstelveen, Netherlands on October 9, 1992. The objectives of the Company are generally to manage and finance businesses, extend loans and invest capital as described in greater detail in Article 2 of the Company's Articles of Association.

As a Netherlands "Naamloze Vennootschap" (N.V.), public limited liability company, we are subject to certain requirements not generally applicable to corporations organized under the laws of jurisdictions within the United States. Among other things, the authority to issue shares is vested in the general meeting of shareholders, except to the extent such authority to issue shares has been delegated by the shareholders or by the Articles of Association to another corporate body for a period not exceeding five years.

The issuance of the common shares is generally subject to shareholder pre-emptive rights, except to the extent that such pre-emptive rights have been excluded or limited by the general meeting of shareholders (subject to a qualified majority of two-thirds of the votes if less than 50% of the outstanding share capital is present or represented) or by the corporate body designated to do so by the general meeting of shareholders or the Articles of Association. Such a designation may only take place if such corporate body has also been designated to issue shares. The resolution by with the pre-emptive rights are excluded or limited needs to be filed with the Dutch Trade Registry, which is publically accessible, within 8 days of such resolution.

In this regard, the general meeting of shareholders has authorized our Supervisory Board to issue any authorized and unissued shares at any time up to five years from December 27, 2012, the date of such authorization, and has authorized the Supervisory Board to exclude or limit shareholder pre-emptive rights with respect to any issuance of common shares prior to such date. Such authorizations may be renewed by the general meeting of shareholders from time to time, for up to five years at a time. This authorization would also permit the issuance of shares in an acquisition, provided that shareholder approval is required in connection with a statutory merger (except that, in certain limited circumstances, the board of directors of a surviving company may resolve to legally merge the company). Shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights with respect to shares which are issued against payment other than in cash or which are issued to employees of the Company or subsidiary. Should the Company issue so-called preferred shares, i.e. shares that exclude or only grant to a limited extent its shareholders a right to share in the profits above a certain percentage of the nominal value of their shares or a share in a liquidation surplus above the nominal value of their shares, then these shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights regarding the issuance of ordinary shares; ordinary shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights regarding the issuance of preferred shares.

On December 27, 2012, at the general meeting of shareholders it was approved to increase the authorized share capital to €15 million or 33,333,334 shares. In addition, it was approved at the shareholders’ meeting that in the event that at least ninety percent of the authorized share capital is issued, the authorized capital of the Company can be increased to €67,5 million or 150,000,000 shares.

Our authorized share capital is currently divided into 33,333,334 common shares, par value 0.45 Euro per common share. Article 24, of the Articles of Association provide that in the event the Management Board files a declaration with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce that at least ninety percent of the authorized share capital is issued, Article 3 of the Articles of Association will provide as follows: “The authorized capital of the Company amounts to EUR 67,500,000 dividend into one hundred fifty million (150,000,000) shares, each share having a par value of EUR 0.45.”

The common shares may be in bearer or registered form. As of December 31, 2016, 21,000,000 shares were issued and outstanding.

Dividends

The Supervisory Board, may decide that all or part of the Company's profits should be retained and not be made available for distribution to shareholders. Those profits that are not retained shall be distributed to holders of common shares, provided that the distribution does not reduce shareholders' equity below the issued share capital increased by the amount of reserves required by Netherlands law.

Dividends on common shares may be paid out of annual profits shown in the Company’s annual accounts, which must be adopted by the general meeting. At its discretion, subject to statutory provisions, the Management Board may, with the prior approval of the Supervisory Board, distribute one or more interim dividends on the common shares before the annual accounts have been adopted by the Company's general meeting. Existing reserves that are distributable in accordance with Netherlands law may be made available for distribution upon proposal by the Management Board, subject to prior approval by the Supervisory Board. With respect to cash payments, the rights to dividends and distributions shall lapse if such dividends or distributions are not claimed within five years following the day after the date on which they were made payable.

Supervisory Board

Members of our Supervisory Board are appointed by the general meeting for a term of one year.

General Meeting of Shareholders

The Company’s general meeting of shareholders will be held at least once a year, not later than six months after the end of the fiscal year. Notices convening a general meeting will be mailed to holders of registered shares at least 15 days before the general meeting and will be published in national newspapers in the Netherlands and abroad in countries where the Company's bearer shares are admitted for official quotation.

In order to attend, address and vote at the general meeting of shareholders, the holders of the Company's registered shares must notify it in writing of their intention to attend the meeting and holders of the Company's bearer shares must direct the depository to their bearer shares, each as specified in the published notice. However, shareholders and other persons entitled to attend the general meetings of shareholders may be represented by proxies with written authority.

Other general meetings of shareholders may be held as often as deemed necessary by the Supervisory Board or the Management Board and must be held if one or more shareholders or other persons entitled to attend the general meeting of shareholders jointly representing at least 10% of the Company's issued share capital make a written request to the Supervisory Board or the Management Board that a meeting must be held and specifying in detail the business to be dealt with at such meeting. Resolutions are adopted at general meetings of shareholders by a majority of the votes cast, except where a different proportion of votes are required by the Articles of Association or Netherlands law, in a meeting in which holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding common shares are represented. Each share carries one vote.

Amendment of Articles of Association and Winding Up

A resolution presented to the general meeting amending the Company's Articles of Association or winding up the Company may only be taken when a proposal thereto is stated in the notice of meeting and with respect to amending the Company’s Articles of Association, a copy of the proposal in which the modification is stated in full on file and available for inspection.

A resolution to dissolve the Company must be approved by at least a two-third majority of the votes cast, in a meeting in which holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding common shares are represented.

Adoption of Annual Accounts

The Company’s annual Netherlands statutory accounts, together with a certificate of its auditors, will be submitted to the general meeting of shareholders for adoption.

Contrary to what is provided in the Company’s Articles of Association, approval of the annual accounts by the shareholders does not discharge the Management Board and the Supervisory Board from liability for the performance of their respective duties for the past financial year. In order to discharge the Supervisory Board and Management Board and their members from liability a separate resolution thereto needs to be adopted by the general meeting of shareholders (which resolution can be adopted in the same meeting in which the annual accounts will be adopted). Under Netherlands law, this discharge is not absolute and will not be effective with respect to matters which are not disclosed to the shareholders.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of the Company's dissolution and liquidation, the assets remaining after payment of all debts and liquidation expenses are to be divided proportionately among the holders of the common shares.

Issues of new shares and pre-emptive rights

The authority to issue shares is vested in the general meeting of shareholders, except to the extent such authority to issue shares has been delegated by the shareholders to another corporate body for a period not exceeding five years.

The issuance of the common shares is generally subject to shareholder pre-emptive rights, except to the extent that such pre-emptive rights have been excluded or limited by the general meeting of shareholders (subject to a qualified majority of two-thirds of the votes if less than 50% of the outstanding share capital is present or represented) or by the corporate body designated to do so by the general meeting of shareholders. Such a designation may only take place if such corporate body has also been designated to issue shares. In this regard, the general meeting of shareholders has authorized our Supervisory Board to issue any authorized and unissued shares at any time up to five years from December 17, 2012, the date of such authorization, and has authorized the Supervisory Board to exclude or limit shareholder pre-emptive rights with respect to any issuance of common shares prior to such date.

This authorization would also permit the issuance of shares in an acquisition, provided that shareholder approval is required in connection with a statutory merger (except that, in certain limited circumstances, the Supervisory Board of directors of a surviving company may resolve to legally merge the company).

Repurchase and Cancellation of Shares

We may repurchase our common shares, subject to compliance with the requirements of certain laws of the Netherlands (and provided the aggregate nominal value of the Company's common shares acquired by it at any one time amounts to no more than one-tenth of its issued share capital). Common shares owned by the Company may not be voted or counted for quorum purposes. Any such purchases are subject to the authorization of the general meeting of shareholders. Such authorization is not effective for more than 18 months. The Company may resell shares it purchases. Upon a proposal of the Supervisory Board, the Company's general meeting shall have the power to decide to cancel shares acquired by the Company or to reduce the nominal value of the common shares.

Any such proposal is subject to general requirements of Netherlands law with respect to reduction of share capital.

Only shares which the Company holds or for which it holds the depository receipts may be cancelled.

Material contracts

For material contracts See "Item 8 - Financial Information".

Exchange controls

There are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in The Netherlands, the Company's jurisdiction of organization, that restrict the Company's export or import of capital in any material respect, including, but not limited to, foreign exchange controls.

There are no limitations imposed by Netherlands law or the Company's charter documents on the right of non-resident or foreign owners to hold or vote Common Shares.

Taxation

The following discussion summarizes the material anticipated U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of shares by a U.S. Holder (as defined below). This summary deals only with shares held as capital assets and does not deal with the tax consequences applicable to all categories of investors some of which (such as tax-exempt entities, banks, broker-dealers, investors who hold shares as part of hedging or conversion transactions and investors whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar) may be subject to special rules.

The summary does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all the potential tax consequences of holding shares, nor does it purport to furnish information in the same detail or with the attention to an investor's specific tax circumstances that would be provided by an investor's own tax adviser. Accordingly, U.S. holders of shares are advised to consult their own tax advisers with respect to their particular circumstances and with respect to the effects of U.S. federal, state, local, or other laws to which they may be subject.

As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of shares that is (i) for United States federal income tax purposes a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, (iii) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, of (iv) an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source.

The summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), judicial decisions, administrative pronouncements, and existing and proposed Treasury Department regulations, changes to any of which after the date of this Annual Report on Form 20-F could apply on a retroactive basis and affect the tax consequences described herein.

Taxation of Dividends

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the gross amount of distributions, if any, (including any withholding tax thereon) made by the Company out of its current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles) will be included in the gross income of a direct U.S. Holder as foreign source dividend income on the date of receipt but will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed to U.S. corporations.

Subject to the discussion below regarding passive foreign investment companies, the Company should be considered to be a “qualified foreign corporation” so that such dividends should be eligible to be taxed as net capital gains (at a maximum U.S. federal rate of 20 percent).

Distributions in excess of the earnings and profits of the Company will be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, first as a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder's basis in the shares (thereby increasing the amount of any gain and decreasing the amount of any loss realized on the subsequent disposition of such shares) and then as a gain from the sale or exchange of the shares. The amount of any dividend paid in Euro will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of the Euro on the date of receipt regardless of whether the U.S. Holder converts the payment into U.S. dollars.

The declaration of dividends will be at the discretion of the Company’s Supervisory Board of directors and will depend upon the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial position, general economic conditions, and other pertinent factors. The Company cannot assure Holders that dividends will be paid in the future.

Foreign Tax Credits

U.S. Holders will generally be entitled to claim a credit against their United States federal income tax liability for the amount of Netherlands dividend withholding tax imposed on dividends paid to U.S. Holders.

See Netherlands Dividend Withholding Tax. U.S. Holders who are entitled to the benefits of a reduced rate of Netherlands dividend withholding tax under the tax treaty between the United States and the Netherlands will be allowed a credit for only the amount of withholding tax provided for under the U.S. Tax Treaty (i.e. 15%).

However, the full amount of the dividend, including any withheld amounts, will be subject to current United States federal income taxation whether or not such Holder obtained a refund of the excess amount withheld. In the event the Company pays a dividend to a U.S. Holder out of the earnings of a non-Dutch subsidiary, however, it is possible that under certain circumstances such U.S. Holder would not be entitled to claim a credit for a portion of any Dutch taxes withheld by the Company from such dividend. The portion of Dutch withholding tax that may not be creditable in this instance equals a maximum of 3% of the gross amount of such dividend (or 20% of the Dutch taxes withheld in the case of a U.S. Holder entitled to claim a 15% withholding rate under the U.S. Tax Treaty). This limitation could potentially apply only under circumstances where the Company pays dividends on the shares.

Depending on the particular circumstances of the U.S. Holder, dividends accrued from shares will generally be classified, for foreign tax credit purposes, as passive income. A U.S. Holder who finds it more advantageous because of such limitations, to claim the Netherlands dividend withholding tax as a deduction instead of a credit may do so, but only for a year for which such Holder does not claim a credit for any foreign taxes. If the U.S. Holder is a U.S. partnership, trust, or estate, any tax credit is available only to the extent that the income derived by such partnership, trust, or estate is subject to U.S. tax on the income of a resident either in its hands or in the hands of its partners or beneficiaries, as the case may be.

Taxation on Sale or Disposition of Shares

Subject to the discussion below regarding passive foreign investment companies, U.S. Holders will recognize capital gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the sale or other disposition of shares in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized and the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the shares. In general, a U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the shares will be equal to the amount paid by the U.S. Holder for such shares reduced by any distribution in excess of the earnings and profits of the Company.

For shares held for one year or less, any such gain or loss will generally be treated as short-term gain or loss. Short-term capital gains are taxed at the same rate as ordinary income.

If the shares have been held for more than a year, any such gain or loss will generally be treated as long-term capital gain or loss. U.S. Holders are advised to consult a competent tax adviser regarding applicable capital gains tax provisions and sourcing of capital gains and losses for foreign tax credit purposes.

Gift and Estate Tax

An individual U.S. Holder may be subject to U.S. gift and estate taxes on shares in the same manner and to the same extent as on other types of personal property.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Payments in respect of the shares may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and to a 31% U.S. backup withholding tax. Backup withholding generally will not apply, however, to a Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number or certificate of foreign status and makes any other required certification or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. Generally, a U.S. Holder will provide such certification on Form W-9 (Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification) and a non-US Holder will provide such certification on a version of Form W-8 (Certificate of Foreign Status).

Passive Foreign Investment Company

Management has determined that the Company has not been a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for United States federal income tax purposes for prior taxable years and believes that the Company will not be treated as a PFIC for the current and future taxable years, but this conclusion is a factual determination made annually and thus subject to change. The Company would be a PFIC with respect to a U.S. Holder if, for any taxable year in which such U.S. Holder held shares, either (i) at least 75% of the Company’s gross income for the taxable year is passive income, or (ii) at least 50% of the Company’s assets are assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. Under a “look-through” rule, a corporation takes into account a pro rata share of the income and the assets of any corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the stock by value.

Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents (other than rents and royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business and not derived from a related person), annuities, and gains from assets that produce passive income. The 50% asset test would apply to the Company based on fair market values.

If the Company is a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder holds shares, the U.S. Holder will be subject to special tax rules with respect to:

Any “excess distribution” that the U.S. Holder receives on shares, and

Any gain the U.S. Holder realizes from a sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of the shares unless the U.S. Holder makes a “qualified electing fund” or “mark-to-market” election as discussed below.

Distributions the U.S. Holder receives in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions the U.S. Holder received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares will be treated as an excess distribution. Under these special tax rules:

The excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the shares,

The amount allocated to the current taxable year, and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which the Company was a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary income, and

The amount allocated to each other year will be subject to tax at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.

The tax liability for amounts allocated to years prior to the year of disposition or “excess distribution” cannot be offset by any net operating losses, and gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of the shares cannot be treated as capital, even if the U.S. Holder holds the shares as capital assets.

If the Company were to become a PFIC, a U.S. Holder may avoid taxation under the excess distribution rules discussed above by making a “qualified electing fund” election to include the U.S. Holder’s share of the Company’s income on a current basis. However, a U.S. Holder may make a qualified electing fund election only if the Company, as a PFIC, agrees to furnish the shareholder annually with certain tax information. Management has not decided whether, under such circumstances, the Company would prepare or provide such information.

Alternatively, if the Company were to become a PFIC, a U.S. Holder might, depending on the volume of trading of our stock, make a mark-to-market election to elect out of the excess distribution rules discussed above.

If a U.S. Holder made a mark-to-market election for the shares, the U.S. Holder would include in income each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares as of the close of the U.S. Holder’s taxable year over the U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in such shares. A U.S. Holder is allowed a deduction for the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of the shares over their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains on the shares included in the U.S. Holder’s income for prior taxable years. Amounts included in a U.S. Holder’s income under a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the actual sale or other dispositions of the shares are treated as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment also applies to the deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss on the shares, as well as to any loss realized on the actual sale or disposition of the shares, to the extent that the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included for such shares. A U.S. Holder’s basis in the shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts.

The mark-to-market election is available only for stock which is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the national market system established pursuant to section 11A of the Exchange Act, or any exchange or market that the IRS has determined has rules sufficient to carry out the purposes of the income tax rules. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to satisfy the requirements of the mark-to-market election.

Taxes in the Netherlands

The following is a general non-exhaustive discussion of the tax laws in the Netherlands as they relate to the operations of the Company.

Corporate Income Taxes

We are incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands and are therefore subject to the tax laws of the Netherlands. In 2016 the standard corporate income tax rate was 20% on profits up to €0.2 million ($0.2 million as of December 31, 2016) and 25% on the excess. In 2017 the standard corporate income tax rate will be the same as in 2016.

ICTS International and a number of our Dutch resident subsidiary companies form a fiscal unity for Dutch corporate income tax purposes. As a result, Dutch corporate income tax is levied from these entities on a consolidated basis at the level of ICTS.

For Dutch corporate income tax purposes business affiliates should calculate their profits on an “at arm’s length” basis. In case transactions between such affiliates are made or imposed on conditions (transfer prices) which differ from those conditions which would have been made or imposed between independent entities in the free market, the profits of those entities are determined as if the latter conditions had been agreed.

Participation Exemption

Under the Dutch participation exemption regime that is applicable as from 1 January 2010, roughly summarized, when determining whether or not the participation exemption is applicable, it should first be considered with what objective the parent company holds its participation in the subsidiary company.

If the parent company holds its participation in the subsidiary company as a portfolio investment, the participation exemption is not applicable, unless it is a “qualifying portfolio investment”. This is a subjective test and should be determined on a case by case basis taking into account all of the relevant facts and circumstances.

The parent company would be considered to hold the participation in the subsidiary company as a portfolio investment, if holding this participation is merely aimed at receiving a return therefrom that could be expected for normal asset management. The parent company would generally not be considered to hold the participation in the subsidiary company as a portfolio investment, if the business carried on by the subsidiary company is in line with the business carried on by the parent company. This should normally also apply to a holding company, which, based on its activities on a managerial, policy-making or financial level, performs a material function for the benefit of the group of companies that it forms part of, or to an intermediate holding company in case this company plays a linking role between the business activities of its parent company and the business activities of its subsidiary companies.

The subsidiary company would be deemed to be held as a portfolio investment by the parent company if (i) generally the subsidiary company’s assets consist on a consolidated basis for more than 50% of interests of less than 5% in other entities, or (ii) the subsidiary company’s activities consist for more than 50% of group financing activities. Group finance includes loans, credit instruments and also leasing of equipment, intangibles and other assets.

If the parent company would (be deemed to) hold the participation in the subsidiary company as a portfolio investment, the participation exemption would still be applicable if the investment is a “qualifying portfolio investment”. That would be the case if the “subject-to-tax” test or the “asset test” is met. We will not elaborate on these tests.

In case the participation exemption is applicable, income in the hands of ICTS arising from dividends paid by subsidiaries or capital gains from the disposal of its shares in such subsidiaries is exempt from corporate income tax in The Netherlands. Apart from special provisions in relation to certain liquidation losses, capital losses incurred in relation to qualifying participations are not deductible for Dutch corporate income tax purposes.

As of 2016, the participation exemption will no longer be applicable to (interest) income that is tax-deductible in country of the debtor, whereas the corresponding income is exempt under the scope of the paricipation exemption. This will be the case e.g. if the country of the debtor qualifies the distribution as an interst expense, whereas the Netherlands qualifies the income as a dividend.

In case the participation exemption is not applicable, income derived from a subsidiary company will be taxed in the hands of ICTS against ordinary corporate income tax rates, while a (partial) credit may be allowed for underlying taxes. In certain cases, a yearly revaluation of the participation to its fair market value is required.

Costs related to the acquisition of qualifying participations are generally added to the cost price of the participation and are as such not deductible.

Costs related to the disposal of participations falling within the scope of the participation exemption are also not deductible. Other expenses relating to participations (e.g. the cost of financing) are in principle deductible.

Interest deduction limitations

As per January 1, 2013, the thin capitalization rules have been abandoned. Instead, as per the same date the “participation debt interest limitation” was introduced in the Netherlands.

The participation debt interest limitation applies to interest and costs of loans that are (deemed to be) related to the financing of subsidiaries (“participation debt”). The interest limitation only affects the tax deductibility of the so called “excessive participation interest”, whereby excessive relates to the fiscal value of participations exceeding the taxpayer’s equity for tax purposes. Financing of subsidiaries includes the acquisition of subsidiaries and capital injections in subsidiaries.

Investments in subsidiaries that relate to the operational expansion of the activities of the group are excluded from the participation debt interest limitation. The participation debt interest limitation only applies to groups that qualify for the participation exemption.

The first €0.8 million ($0.8 million as of December 31, 2016) of “excessive participation interest” is exempt from the interest deduction limitation and is therefore deductible (unless other interest limitation rules apply). “Excessive participation interest” that exceeds the €0.8 million threshold is not tax deductible; it makes no difference if this interest is paid to related entities or to third parties.

According to the definition of the interest limitation, interest costs include: foreign exchange results, the costs of hedging currency risks and the costs of hedging interest risks. The interest costs also include, besides the cost of loans, the costs of financial lease contracts and hire-purchase contracts.

An investment can never be considered to be an expansion of the operational activities in case the financing is artificially constructed in order to obtain a tax advantage, if the interest can be deducted twice in the group (double dip) or when a hybrid loan is used (e.g. a profit participating loan).

In case of ICTS, there is no excessive debt at this stage, since its equity exceeds the cost price of the participations. Insofar this is the situation, participation debt interest limitation rules in principle do not apply.

Besides the participation debt interest limitation, Dutch tax law includes various other sets of anti-abuse provisions in relation to deduction of interest. Further, interest deduction may be disallowed based on case law.

Loss compensation

As of 2007 the term for carry-back of operating losses is reduced to one year. Further, the term for carry-forward of losses is restricted to nine years, subject to certain anti-abuse provisions. Not yet compensated losses will disappear after these terms have lapsed.

Limitations on loss compensation may also apply in the case of so-called "holding losses", being losses incurred in a book year during which the activities of ICTS (jointly with the subsidiary companies that form part of the fiscal unity for Dutch corporate income tax purposes) for the entire or almost entire year, entirely or almost entirely consist of the holding of participations or the financing of related companies. This will be deemed not to be the case if at least 25 employees are engaged in other activities on a full-time basis.

Innovation box

In the innovation box regime, which has entered into force as per 2010, income from self-developed intangible assets will be taxed against an effective tax rate of 5%. The innovation box is not only applicable to intangible assets for which a patent was granted, but also to intangible assets which are eligible for an R&D certificate (S&O verklaring). Further, application of the innovation box regime is subject to the condition that the income generated with an intangible asset, can for 30% or more, be attributed to the intangible. Brands, images and similar assets are excluded from the innovation box regime.

Application of the innovation box regime is optional on a product by product basis. ICTS may also decide to deduct R&D costs against other regularly taxed income when determining its taxable income. At a later stage and subject to certain conditions aiming at avoiding that costs are deducted against regular corporate income tax rates whereas income is taxed under the innovation box regime against an effective rate of 5%, ICTS may in this case still decide to apply the innovation box regime.

Depreciation limitations; depreciation at will

As of January 1, 2007 restrictions apply on the depreciation amount for goodwill and other business assets. The maximum yearly depreciation charge for goodwill is 10% of the cost price. The maximum yearly depreciation charge for other business assets is 20% of the cost price of said assets. It should still be possible to value assets at lower going-concern value. Further, restrictions have been introduced on the depreciation of real estate property. Depreciation of investment property is no longer allowed in case the book value of the property falls below the official fair market value of the property for tax purposes. The depreciation of real estate property used as part of a trade or business is allowed as long as the book value of the real estate property does not fall below 50% of the official fair market value of the property for tax purposes.

Dutch Tax Consequences of Holding Shares by a non-Dutch resident shareholder

The following is a general, non-exhaustive summary of Dutch tax consequences to a holder of Common Shares who is not, or is not deemed to be, a resident of the Netherlands for purposes of the relevant tax codes (a "non-resident Shareholder") and is based upon laws and relevant interpretations thereof in effect as of the date of this Annual Report, all of which are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

The summary does not address taxes imposed by the Netherlands other than dividend withholding tax, personal income tax, corporate income tax and gift and inheritance tax. The discussion does not address the tax consequences under tax laws of any other jurisdiction than the Netherlands.

Dividend Withholding Tax in the Netherlands

We currently do not anticipate distributing any dividends in the foreseeable future. To the extent that dividends are distributed by ICTS, such dividends ordinarily would be subject, under the tax laws of the Netherlands, to a withholding tax at a rate of 15%. Dividends include distributions in cash or in kind, deemed dividends and redemption and liquidation proceeds in excess of, for Dutch tax purposes, recognized paid-in capital.

In case there are profits or in case profits can be anticipated, the repayment of ICTS' share premium is also subject to dividend withholding tax. Further, stock dividends are subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax, unless distributed out of the paid-in share premium of ICTS as recognized for tax purposes in the Netherlands.

A non-resident Shareholder could be eligible for a reduction or a refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax under a tax convention which is in effect between the country of residence of the shareholder and the Netherlands, or under provisions similar to the EU Parent/Subsidiary Directive. The Netherlands has concluded such conventions with, among others, the United States, most European Union member states, Canada, Switzerland and Japan. Under most of these conventions, dividend withholding tax in the Netherlands is effectively set at a rate of 15% (primarily applicable to individual shareholder) and may be further reduced to lower rates in the case of a corporate shareholder with a certain percentage of shareholding interest, depending on the applicable tax treaty. Based on Dutch domestic law, a 0% withholding tax rate applies to certain (corporate) shareholders.

Under the tax convention currently in force between the United States and the Netherlands (the "Treaty"), dividends paid by us to an individual shareholder resident in the United States or a corporate shareholder organized under the laws of the United States or any State or territory thereof holding less than 10% of the voting power in ICTS (each, a "U.S. Treaty Shareholder"), are subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax of 15%, unless such U.S. Treaty Shareholder has a permanent establishment or permanent representative in the Netherlands to which or to whom the Common Shares are attributable. Subject to certain conditions, the dividend withholding tax rate may be reduced to 5% or 0% in case a qualifying U.S. resident corporate shareholder would hold at least 10% respectively at least 80% of the voting power in ICTS.

Generally, there is no dividend withholding tax applicable in the Netherlands on the sale or disposition of Common Shares to persons other than ICTS or its subsidiaries or affiliates. In case of sale or disposition of Common Shares to ICTS or any of its subsidiaries, dividend withholding tax in the Netherlands may apply.

In addition, in an effort to prevent the practice of dividend stripping, strict beneficial ownership rules are incorporated in the Dutch dividend withholding tax act, which may have an impact on the levy of dividend withholding taks.

Non-resident shareholders; Income Tax and Corporate Income Tax in the Netherlands

Based on Dutch domestic tax law, a non-resident Shareholder is subject to Dutch personal income tax or Dutch corporate income tax with respect to dividends distributed by us on the Common Shares or with respect to capital gains derived from the sale or disposal of Common Shares in case:

(a) the non-resident Shareholder carries on a business in the Netherlands through a permanent establishment or a permanent representative to which or to whom the Common Shares are attributable; or

(b) the non-resident Shareholder has a direct or indirect substantial interest or deemed substantial interest in the share capital of ICTS as defined in the tax code of the Netherlands, which interest does not form part of the assets of an enterprise of that non-resident Shareholder and the interest is held with the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, to prevent the levy of personal income tax or dividend withholding tax at the level of another (legal) person; or

(c) the non-resident Shareholder is entitled to a share in the profits of an enterprise effectively managed in The Netherlands, other than through ownership of securities or, in the case of an individual shareholder, through employment, to which enterprise the Common Shares are attributable.

Generally, there is a substantial interest in the share capital of ICTS if the Shareholder, alone or together with his or her partner (spouse, registered partner or other individuals as defined in Dutch tax law), owns, directly or indirectly, (i) 5% or more of the issued capital of any class of shares in ICTS, (ii) options to acquire 5% or more of the issued capital of any class of shares or (iii) profit-sharing rights to 5% or more of the annual profits or liquidation distributions of ICTS. If an individual, alone or together with his partner, does not have a substantial interest based on these tests, he or she may nevertheless be deemed to have a substantial interest in case certain relatives hold a substantial interest in ICTS. In case of a substantial interest held by a corporate shareholder, a receivable the non-resident Shareholder has from ICTS may also belong to such substantial interest. Non-resident Shareholders owning a substantial interest in ICTS may be subject to income tax upon the occurrence of certain events, for example when they cease to own a substantial interest.

The Netherlands' right to levy tax with respect to dividends distributed by ICTS to a non-resident Shareholder or capital gains derived from the sale or disposal of shares in ICTS by a non-resident Shareholder may be limited under a tax convention which may be in effect between the country of residence of the shareholder and the Netherlands.

In case Dutch income tax is due with respect to dividends distributed by ICTS, Dutch dividend withholding tax levied with respect to such dividends can generally be credited against the income tax due as a pre-tax.

Netherlands Gift and Inheritance Tax

A gift or inheritance of Common Shares received from a non-resident Shareholder will be subject to Dutch gift or inheritance tax in case:

(a) the non-resident Shareholder has been a resident of the Netherlands at any time during the ten years preceding the time of the gift or death and is a national of the Netherlands at the time of the gift or death; or

(b) for purposes of the tax on gifts, the non-resident Shareholder has been a resident of the Netherlands at any time during the twelve months preceding the time of the gift.

Please note that this summary of Dutch gift and inheritance tax is not exhaustive.

Documents on display

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In accordance with these requirements, the Company files reports and other information with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

These materials may be inspected at the Company's office in Schiphol-Oost, The Netherlands. Documents filed with the SEC may also be read and copied at the SEC's public reference room at 100 F Street N.E. Room 1580 Washington, DC 20549 USA.

For further information please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. All the SEC filings made electronically by ICTS are available to the public on the SEC web site at http://www.sec.gov (commission file number 0-28542). Those reports are also available free of charge at www.icts-int.com.

Subsidiary Information

Not applicable

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk - applies to our operations outside the USA. In 2016, approximately 19% of the Companies revenues were derived in the United States, and approximately 81% was derived in Europe and the Far East. The Company is subject to market risks associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

We do not utilize derivative instruments to manage the exposure to such market risk. As such, significant foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can have a material impact of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Interest Rate Risk - We are subject to changes in interest rates based on Federal Reserve actions and general market conditions. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. We believe that moderate interest rate increases will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, result of operations and cash flows. An increase of 1% in the interest rate would have increased the Company's interest expense for bank loans, convertible notes payable to a related party and other parties, by approximately $0.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2016.

Management's report on internal control over financial reporting

(a) Our management, including our Managing Director and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report (the “Evaluation Date”).

Based on such evaluation, the Managing Director and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b) Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our management, including our Managing Director and our Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that our internal control over financial reporting will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company to comply with our internal procedures, as all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

(c) On the evaluation conducted by our Managing Director and our Chief Financial Officer pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) under the Exchange Act, our management has concluded that there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2016 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Supervisory Board of Directors and Shareholders of

ICTS INTERNATIONAL N.V. AND SUBSIDIARIES

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ICTS International N.V. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule presented on page F34 for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and on the financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ICTS International N.V. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

Description of Business

ICTS International N.V. was registered at the Department of Justice in Amstelveen, Netherlands on October 9, 1992. ICTS and subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “ICTS” or the "Company") operate in three reportable segments: (a) corporate (b) airport security and other aviation services and (c) technology. The corporate segment does not generate revenue and contains primarily non-operational expenses. The airport security and other aviation services segment provides security and other services to airlines and airport authorities, predominantly in Europe and the United States. The technology segment is predominantly involved in the development and sale of identity security software to financial and other institutions, predominantly in Europe and the United States of America.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 explicitly requires a company’s management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The new standard became effective in the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Management has evaluated the potential impact of the adoption of this standard and believes the following disclosure is appropriate relating to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has a working capital deficit of $1,457 and $5,005, respectively and shareholders’ deficit of $33,477 and $42,208 respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred income (loss) from continuing operations of $2,342, ($4,702) and $1,540, respectively, and positive cash flows from operations of $3,512, $1,470 and $4,127, respectively. The Company’s business plan projects income from operations and compliance with all financial covenants. Management believes that this plan is achievable and that they will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations. Management also believes that it will receive continued support from their lenders and majority shareholder in financing operations. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in achieving its business plan.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The significant accounting policies are as follows:

Functional Currency

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The Company has determined that the functional currency of its foreign subsidiaries is the local currency, which is predominantly the Euro. For financial reporting purposes, the assets and liabilities of such subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The revenue and expenses of such subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars using average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. Resulting translation adjustments are presented as a separate category in shareholders' deficit called accumulated other comprehensive loss.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The most significant estimates and assumptions included in these consolidated financial statements consist of the: (a) calculation of the allowance for doubtful accounts, (b) determination of the fair value of stock options, (c) recognition of contingent liabilities, and (d) valuation of deferred income taxes.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ICTS International N.V. and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash as of December 31, 2016 consists of: (a) $233 held in a bank account that serves as cash collateral for outstanding letters of credit, which is to be released from restriction on various dates from September 2017 to December 2017 and (b) $3,554 held in several bank accounts in the Netherlands, which is restricted for payments to local tax authorities.

Restricted cash as of December 31, 2015 consists of: (a) $274 held in a bank account that serves as cash collateral for outstanding letters of credit, which is to be released from restriction on various dates from October 2016 to December 2016 and (b) $4,114 held in several bank accounts in the Netherlands, which is restricted for payments to local tax authorities.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Investments

In determining the fair value, the Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Companies have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 -

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

As of December 31, 2016 the Company owns 14.2 percent ownership interest in an entity which was originally valued at approximately $162 using Level 1 inputs; however, the Company has determined that value of the investment is impaired (see Note 5).

The Company accounts for investments in the equity securities of companies which represent an ownership interest of 20% to 50% and the ability to exercise significant influence, provided that ability does not represent control, using the equity method. The equity method requires the Company to recognize its share of the net income (loss) of its investees in the consolidated statement of operations until the carrying value of the investment is zero.

Property and Equipment

Equipment and furniture, internal-use software, and vehicles are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives used in determining depreciation are as follows:

	Years
Equipment and furniture	3-7
Internal- use software	7
Vehicles	3-7

Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the assets.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Capitalized Internal-Use Software Costs

The Company capitalizes the cost of internal-use software that has a useful life in excess of one year in property and equipment. These costs consist of payments made to third party consultants for the installation and integration of software and related travel costs. Software maintenance and training costs, including related travel costs, are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Goodwill

Long-Lived Assets

Convertible Debt Instruments

The Company evaluates convertible debt instruments to determine whether the embedded conversion option needs to be bifurcated from the debt instrument and accounted for as a freestanding derivative instrument or considered a beneficial conversion option. An embedded conversion option is considered to be a freestanding derivative when: (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded conversion option are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host instrument, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded conversion option and the host instrument is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable US GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded conversion option would be considered a derivative instrument subject to certain requirements (except when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional). When it is determined that an embedded conversion option should not be bifurcated from its host instrument, the embedded conversion option is evaluated to determine whether it contains any intrinsic value which needs to be discounted from the carrying value of the convertible debt instrument.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Convertible Debt Instruments (continued)

The intrinsic value of an embedded conversion option is considered to be the difference between the fair value of the underlying security on the commitment date of the debt instrument and the effective conversion price embedded in the debt instrument.

Contingent Liabilities

Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The Company's comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 consists of the Company’s net income (loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss consist of the Company’s foreign exchange currency adjustments.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation to employees, including stock options, are measured at the fair value of the award on the date of grant based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The compensation expense resulting from stock-based compensation to management and administrative employees is recorded over the vesting period of the award in selling, general and administrative expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Compensation expense resulting from stock-based compensation to operational employees is recorded over the vesting period of the award in cost of revenue.

Non controlling interest

The Company’s non controlling interest represent the minority shareholder’s ownership interest related to the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company reports its non controlling interest in subsidiaries as a separate component of equity in the consolidated balance sheets and reports net income (loss) attributable to the non controlling interest in the consolidated statement of operations.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue represents primarily payroll and related costs associated with employees who provide services under the terms of the Company's contractual arrangements, insurance and depreciation and amortization.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of payroll and related costs.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 are $247, $202 and $130, respectively.

Value Added Tax

Certain of the Company’s operations are subject to Value Added Tax (“VAT”) applied on the services sold in those respective countries. The Company is required to remit the VAT collected to the tax authorities, but may deduct the VAT paid on certain eligible purchases.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date.

A valuation allowance is established when realization of net deferred tax assets is not considered more likely than not.

The Company recognizes interest related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense. The Company recognizes penalties related to uncertain tax positions in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is determined in the same manner as basic income (loss) per share, except that the number of shares is increased to include potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method.

The following table summarizes the number of shares of common stock attributable to potentially dilutive securities outstanding for each of the periods which were excluded from the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2016		2015		2014

Stock Options		150,000		150,000		150,000
Shares Issuable upon Conversion of
Convertible Notes Payable to a Related Party		29,162,598		33,171,710		25,669,039
Total		29,312,598		33,321,710		25,819,039

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, income taxes payable, value added tax (VAT) payable and notes payable - banks approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The carrying values of the convertible notes payable to a related party and other liabilities are not readily determinable because: (a) these instruments are not traded and, therefore, no quoted market prices exist upon which to base an estimate of fair value and (b) there were no readily determinable similar instruments on which to base an estimate of fair value.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which are subject to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts receivable.

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash in accounts with financial institutions in the United States, Europe, Japan and Israel. As of December 31, 2016, accounts at financial institutions located in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250 per institution. As of December 31, 2016, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $871 is being held in the United States. Bank accounts located in Europe, Japan and Israel, totaling $6,808 as of December 31, 2016, are uninsured.

The Company renders services to a limited number of airlines and airports through service contracts and provides credit without collateral. Some of these airlines and airports may have difficulties in meeting their financial obligations, which can have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. To mitigate this risk, the Company regularly reviews the creditworthiness of its customers through its credit evaluation process.

Concentration of Credit Risk (continued)

Revenue from two customers represented 75% of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2016, of which one customer accounted for 42% and the other customer accounts for 33% of total revenue. Accounts receivable from these two customers represented 70% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016.

Revenue from two customers represented 67% of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2014, of which one customer accounted for 38% and the other customer accounted for 29% of total revenue. Accounts receivable from these two customers represented 65% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014.

Both customers mentioned above, have been principle customers in the last three years.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to changes in interest rates based on Federal Reserve actions and general market conditions. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.

Furthermore, as a result of its international operations, the Company is subject to market risks associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments to manage its exposure to such market risk. As such, significant foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Reclassification

Certain amounts have been reclassified in prior years statements of cash flows between operating activities and financing activities to conform with current year presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update 2015-03

In April 2015 the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

Accounting Standards Update 2015-03 (continued)

For public business entities, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

The amendments should be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented should be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. Upon transition, an entity is required to comply with the applicable disclosures for a change in an accounting principle.

These disclosures include the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle, the transition method, a description of the prior-period information that has been retrospectively adjusted, and the effect of the change on the financial statement line items (i.e., debt issuance cost asset and the debt liability).

This update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-14

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services, and the guidance defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. The ASU, as amended, is effective for the Company's 2018 fiscal year and may be applied either (i) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented with an election for certain specified practical expedients, or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized at the date of initial application, with additional disclosure requirements.

This update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-15

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting. This ASU adds SEC paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Announcement at the June 18, 2015, Emerging Issues Task Force meeting about the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs associated with line-of-credit arrangements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires the presentation of debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. ASU 2015-03 does not address presentation or subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-15 (continued)

Given the absence of authoritative guidance within ASU 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements, the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement.

This update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2015-16

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination, the amendments eliminate the requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments.

U.S. GAAP currently requires that during the measurement period, the acquirer retrospectively adjust the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

Those adjustments are required when new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts initially recognized or would have resulted in the recognition of additional assets or liabilities.

The acquirer also must revise comparative information for prior periods presented in financial statements as needed, including revising depreciation, amortization, or other income effects as a result of changes made to provisional amounts.

The amendments require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments require that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.

The amendments require an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date.

For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued.

The only disclosures required at transition should be the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle. An entity should disclose that information in the first annual period of adoption and in the interim periods within the first annual period if there is a measurement-period adjustment during the first annual period in which the changes are effective.

The update is not expected to have material impact on the Company’s financial statement.

Accounting Standards Updates 2015-17

The FASB has issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which changes how deferred taxes are classified on organizations’ balance sheets.

The ASU eliminates the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organizations will be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent.

The amendments apply to all organizations that present a classified balance sheet. For public companies, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted the amendment already in its financials as of December 31, 2015.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-02

The FASB has issued its new lease accounting guidance in Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).

Under the new guidance, lessees will be required 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 new lease guidance simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 (continued)

Public companies should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for all public companies upon issuance.

Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases) must apply 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 modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the Company’s financial statement.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-16

The FASB has issued Topic 740, Intra-Entity of Assets Other than Inventory. The amendment, prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. In addition, interpretations of this guidance have developed in practice for transfers of certain intangible and tangible assets. This prohibition on recognition is an exception to the principle of comprehensive recognition of current and deferred income taxes in GAAP. To more faithfully represent the economics of intra-entity asset transfers, the amendments in this update require that entities recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The amendments in this Update do not change GAAP for the pre-tax effects of an intra-entity asset transfer under Topic 810, Consolidation, or for an intra-entity transfer of inventory. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-18

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The amendments apply to all entities that have restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and are required to present a statement of cash flows. The amendments address diversity in practice that exists in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows.

The amendments require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents.

The amendments are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2017-04

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.

To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.

The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary.

The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. The nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle should be disclosed upon transition.

A public business entity that is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer should adopt the amendments for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.

Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact on the financial statements.

NOTE 7 – NOTES PAYABLE – BANKS

United States

The Company was a party to a credit facility with a commercial lender, which provided it with up to $10,500 in borrowings subject to a borrowing base limitation. The borrowing base limitation was equivalent to: (i) 80% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, plus (ii) 70% of eligible unbilled receivables, as defined, plus (iii) 100% of the Company’s $3,500 in cash collateral plus (iv) 95% of a $1,000 standby letter of credit that was provided to the lender by an entity related to the Company’s main shareholder (see note 13). Borrowings under the credit facility were secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, equipment, cash, a $3,500 certificate of deposit, and the $1,000 letter of credit that was provided to the lender by an entity related to the Company’s main shareholder.

In June 2014, the Company amended the credit facility to decrease the maximum borrowing capacity to $6,500 and amend existing financial and non-financial covenants, including the maintenance of a specified fixed charge coverage ratio. The borrowing base limitation was also amended and is equivalent to: (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable, as defined, plus (ii) 75% of eligible unbilled receivables, as defined, plus (iii) 95% of a $1,000 standby letter of credit that was provided to the lender by an entity related to the Company’s main shareholder. In addition, as part of the amendment, the Company’s $3,500 cash collateral was released and used to reduce outstanding borrowings under the credit facility.

On July 2016, the Company amended the credit facility to increase the maximum borrowing capacity to $8,500. The amendment also revised the existing fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant. The credit facility expires on June 24, 2018. As of December 31, 2016, the company was in compliance with all required debt covenants.

Borrowings made under the credit facility bear interest, which is payable monthly, at LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.375%) plus 4.25% per annum (5.625% as of December 31, 2016).

The Company’s weighted average interest rate in the United States during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 is 5.76%, 5.88% and 6.02% respectively.

NOTE 9 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE TO A RELATED PARTY

In May 2014, the Company entered into an arrangement with an entity related to its main shareholder, which replaced all previous arrangements between the parties, to provide it with up to $37,000 in revolving loans through December 2016. The term of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six-month periods at the option of the holder. All outstanding borrowings from previous arrangements were applied to the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement. Loans received under the arrangement bear interest, which is compounded semi-annually and payable at maturity, at the interest rate charged by the Company’s European commercial bank (LIBOR plus 6% for U.S. dollar-denominated loans and the base rate plus 2% for Euro-denominated loans). The arrangement is secured by a 26% interest in one of the Company's European subsidiaries. In connection with the arrangement, the holder was granted an option to convert outstanding notes payable (including accrued interest) under the arrangement into the Company's common stock at a price of $1.50 per share. The Company determined that the new arrangement did not represent a substantive modification and, therefore, it was not necessary to evaluate whether the conversion feature qualified as a free-standing derivative instrument or contained any intrinsic value which would be considered beneficial.

In October 2015, the Supervisory Board of Directors approved to reduce the convertible price of the unpaid interest from $1.50 per share to $0.75 per share. In addition, the loan period was extended until January 1, 2018. The terms of the arrangement can be automatically extended for four additional six months periods at the option of the holder. The Company determined that the new arrangement did not represent a substantive modification and therefore it was not necessary to evaluate whether the conversion feature qualifies as a free-standing derivative instrument or contained any intrinsic value which would be considered beneficial.

In September 2016, the Supervisory Board of Directors approved an increase in the interest rate of the loan from the entity related to the main shareholder, by one percent, retroactively for the whole period of the loan. The Company determined that the new arrangement did not represent a substantive modification and therefore it was not necessary to evaluate whether the conversion feature qualifies as a freestanding derivative instrument or contained any intrinsic value, which would be considered beneficial. The interest recognized in 2016 regarding increase of the previous years interest rate totaled $1,159.

In December 2016, the entity related to the main shareholder converted $5,429 accrued interest into 7,238,302 shares at a price of $0.75 per share.

The Company’s weighted average interest during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 is 7.05%, 5.99% and 6.06%, respectively.

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, convertible notes payable to a related party consist of $25,078 and $29,048, respectively, in principal and $9,433 and $10,355, respectively, in accrued interest.

Options were granted to certain directors, under the Employees and Directors Commitment Stock Option Plan. The fair value of the stock at the grant date was $1.05. The Company used the Binominal lattice pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options granted. The Company believes this model provides the best estimate of fair value due to its ability to incorporate inputs that change over time. There were no stock options granted, exercised or forfeited / expired during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

The components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:
	December 31,
	2016			2015

Deferred tax assets:
Operating loss carryforwards	$	18,907		$	19,890
Capital loss carryforwards		145			143
Allowance for doubtful accounts		20			21
Tax credit carryforwards		558			568
Accrued expenses		2,032			1,669
Total deferred tax assets		21,662			22,291

Deferred tax liabilities:
Depreciation of property and equipment		(56	)		(56	)
Total deferred tax liabilities		21,606			22,235

Valuation allowance		(21,269	)		(22,143	)
Deferred tax assets, net	$	337		$	92

The ultimate realization of the net deferred tax assets in each jurisdiction the Company does business in is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in that jurisdiction during the periods in which net operating loss carry forwards are available and items that gave rise to the net deferred tax assets become deductible. At present, the Company does not have a sufficient history of generating taxable income in the various jurisdictions it does business in to conclude that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to realize its net deferred tax assets in the near future and, therefore, a valuation allowance was established for the carrying value of the net deferred tax assets, with the exception of two locations, which are currently generating taxable income. A valuation allowance will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of any portion of the valuation allowance in other jurisdictions.

As of December 31, 2016, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of $24,719 in the Netherlands, which will expire in 2017 through 2025. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of $29,746 in the United States, which will expire in 2025 through 2034 and $4,507 in Israel, which do not expire. The ultimate utilization of such net operating loss carry forwards is limited in certain situations.

As of December 31, 2016, the Company has capital loss carry forwards of $580 in Israel. Such capital loss carry forwards do not expire and can be offset against future capital gains generated in Israel.

As of December 31, 2016, the Company has $558 in tax credits for the welfare to work and work opportunity programs in the United States that expire in 2024 through 2029.

During the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 the valuation allowance decreased (increased) by $874 and $(2,868), respectively.

Minimum wage increase

In August 2015, the Company was informed about a court decision, which approved an increase to the minimum wage for the city of SeaTac, Washington (location of Seattle Airport). The increase to the minimum wage was originally approved by a vote in King County, Washington in 2013 (to be effective January 1, 2014). However, a court ruled that SeaTac employees were excluded from this increase because the airport was under the jurisdiction of the Port of Seattle and not the city of SeaTac. In August 2015, this decision was overturned by the State Supreme Court and accordingly, the Company is required to increase the minimum wage of its employees at the SeaTac Airport according to the court decision, effective January 1, 2014. The Company has estimated that it has a liability of approximately $3,600 for back wages (inclusive of interest amounting to approximately $600) as of December 31, 2016 and has recorded an accrual for this liability.

A class action lawsuit was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, Seattle, by an employee of the Company. The employee alleges the Company failed to pay the proper minimum wage in violation of the City of Sea Tax Municipal Code. The case is currently in the discovery phase.

Additional two lawsuits were filed against the Company in the District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Huston Division and in the Superior Court of Washington, King County, on the same subject. These cases are currently in the discovery phase.
