Our core technologiesconsist of those that support digital payments, biometric identification, encryption, sensors, and miniaturization. We have three distinct lines of business thatwe are currently pursuing, which are in various stages of development: mobile commerce (“m-commerce”), primarily through the application of secure digitalpayment technologies; biometric access control applications, and Department of Defense contracting. Our initial efforts have primarily focused on thedevelopment of our secure products for the growing m-commerce market, most immediately, a secure mobile electronic smart wallet, the Wocket®. TheWocket® is a smart wallet, the next evolution in smart devices following the smartphone and smartwatch, designed to protect your identity and replace allthe cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required. The Wocket® works almost everywhere credit cards are accepted. We are also developing a smartcardthat functions in a similar manner to the Wocket® and have a distribution agreement with an international direct selling company to distribute that product.Our biometric access control applications and defense contracting opportunities are still in their emerging growths. We believe that our MobileBio® products will provide distinct advantages within m-commerce market by improving mobile security. Currently most mobiledevices continue to be protected simply by PIN numbers. This security methodology is easily duplicated on another device, and can easily be spoofed orhacked. Our security paradigm is Dynamic Pairing Codes (“DPC”). DPC is a new, proprietary method to secure users, devices, accounts, locations and serversover any communication media by sharing key identifiers, including biometric-enabled identifiers, between end-points by passing dynamic pairing codes(random numbers) between end-points to establish sessions and/or transactions without exposing identifiers or keys. The recent high-level breaches ofpersonal credit card data raises serious concerns among consumers about the safety of their money. These consumers are also resistant to letting technologycompanies learn even more about their personal purchasing habits. Our plan also anticipates that we will use our core biometric facial and voice recognition algorithms to develop security applications (both cloud based andlocally hosted) that can be used for companies (for industrial uses, such as enterprise computer networks) as well as individuals (for consumer uses, such assmart phones, tablets or personal computers), law enforcement, the defense industry, and the U.S. Department of Defense. We are an emerging growth entity and have incurred net losses since our inception. In order to execute our long-term strategic plan to develop andcommercialize our core products and fulfill our product development commitments, we will need to raise additional funds, through public or private equityofferings, debt financings, or other means. We can give no assurance that the cash raised subsequent to December 31, 2015 or any additional funds raised willbe sufficient to execute our business plan. Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing, or generate sufficient revenue to fundits operations, the Company would need to curtail certain of its operational activities. The accompanying financial statements do not include anyadjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These conditions raise substantial doubt about ourability to continue as a going concern. We can give no assurance that additional funds will be available on reasonable terms, or available at all, or that it willgenerate sufficient revenue to alleviate these conditions. Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continueas going concern. 1 Our Products Wocket® We have developed a separate physical electronic smart wallet that is intended to hold information from credit cards, debit cards, loyalty cards, identificationcards, and virtually any magnetic stripe card to allow the owner of the card to configure a single, dynamic, electronic card to replicate any of the copied cardsand thereby reduce the number of physical cards carried in a wallet. As designed, users will simply scan in each card, slide through each of the scanned “soft-cards” via a touch screen display. and select the card the user wishes to program. The resultant electronic card can then be swiped just like a regular credit,debit, or virtually any other card. The system consists of 2 devices: an electronic smart wallet “wocket” and a dynamic smart card. The electronic smart walletis secured by an alpha numeric PIN and will also have a range of accessories that allow the user to carry a driver’s license and cash in the same device,replacing the wallet altogether. The payment information on the wocket smart card is erased a short time after it is enabled so that if the card is lost there is nosensitive information on the card. We commenced shipping of the Wocket® at the end of the second quarter of 2015, primarily to tech savvy consumers. Theimplementation of the EMV chip point of sale (“POS”) terminals in the United States has limited the number of POS systems that the Wocket® works at, sowe have postponed the full launch of the product in the United States until we are able to implement Near Field Communication (“NFC”) technology on theWocket® as well as our dynamic magnetic stripe technology. NFC is a similar technology to ApplePay and GooglePay and works at many EMV enabled POSTerminals. We are also pursuing the sale of the Wocket® in certain overseas markets that have not implemented chip cards and where the Wocket® worksextremely well. We intend to relaunch the Wocket® in the United States once NFC is operational. Current Wocket® inventory is hardware enabled for thispurpose and we are finalizing the software arrangements with banks and major payment companies to implement this technology. We anticipate relaunchingthe Wocket® in the United States with NFC capability in the third quarter of 2016 and will accelerate efforts to export the product to suitable overseasmarkets. Wocket® World Ventures SmartCard We have entered into a distribution agreement with WorldVentures Holdings, LLC. (“WVH”), an international travel company, who will purchase anexclusive smartcard from the Company for distribution to its membership which is in excess of 500,000 members. WVH also made a strategic investment inthe Company. The smartcard will be customized for WorldVentures with additional technologies and wireless features, such as the ability to seamlesslyintegrate with WorldVentures’s DreamTrips™ App to wirelessly check in and earn loyalty points towards free DreamTrips vacations at select restaurants.DreamTrips is a travel club and entertainment community where Members enjoy exciting excursions year-round to extraordinary destinations. The prototype is expected to be completed in May 2016 with deliveries commencing in July 2016. We have received an initial purchase order for $15million for delivery in 2016. The order calls for monthly deliveries of $2.5 million commencing in July 2016. Subsequent deliveries after July 2016 may bemodified or cancelled subject to 90 days advance notice. For additional information on the transaction with WVH, see “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. Nxt-ID SmartCard We are developing a standalone smartcard (the “NXT Smartcard”) with the ability to make payments by dynamic magnetic stripe or through interacting witha terminal through EMC, NFC or barcode functionality. We are currently pursuing significant strategic partnerships for this product. Prototype card 2 Wi-Mag™ Our proprietary antenna and payment technology can be embedded in a mobile device to make wireless payments at most POS terminals which do not requireNFC or EMV. This allows us to make payments at most POS terminals in the United States and abroad. According to LTP research (January 12, 2016), thereare about 13.9 million POS terminals in the United States of which 57% are currently Magstripe only. The addition of NFC and contactless EMV technologywill further increase the locations where our technology works. We are currently in discussions with mobile device makers to license this technology. MobileBio VoiceMatch® Voicematch® is a new method of recognizing both speakers and specific words providing innovative multi-factor recognition. Voice authentication is a morenatural biometric method of authentication than fingerprint that allows an individual access to multiple devices. Voicematch is efficient enough to run onlow-power devices and runs on mobile platforms such as Android and iOS, as well as laptops and desktops. The product helps to address the growing BYOD(Bring your own device) problem for companies by positively identifying the individual using the mobile device. Voicematch® is a potential originalequipment manufacturer (“OEM”) product for smartphone manufacturers. The product can also be sold as a standard development kit (“SDK”) to providecompanies the opportunity to add a further layer of biometric protection to their websites and smartphone applications for their customers. We expect commercial versions of this product to be available in the third quarter of 2016. FaceMatch® Through the acquisition of 3D-ID, LLC (“3D-ID”), the Company acquired 3D FaceMatch® and 3D SketchArtist™ facial recognition products which areavailable for sale. These products are primarily designed for access control, law enforcement and travel and immigration. Through 3D-ID, we are a sub-contractor to Battelle Memorial Institute on the Department of Defense Technical Information Engineering Services (“TIES”) contract with a contract ceilingof $995 million. This is an IDIQ (indefinite delivery indefinite quantity) contract and requires approved contractors to bid on task orders. We have not bid onany task orders to date. Our Industry The January 2016 issue of the Nilson Report shows that on a worldwide basis, transactions at merchants on the leading payment cards rose to $214 billion in2014, of which 41.25% were generated in the United States. It is estimated that there are approximately 180 million cardholders in the United States alone with each cardholder owning in excess of three payment cards.Several large technology companies have invested in the belief that in the foreseeable future most people will have embraced and fully adopted the use ofsmart-devices for purchases they make, nearly eliminating the need for cash or credit cards. They feel that the explosive growth in the use of smartphones andother mobile devices, combined with the convenience, security, and other affordances of mobile payments systems, makes these systems an obvious choice toreplace established modes of payment in day-to-day commerce. Many consumers are resistant to letting technology companies learn even more about their personal purchasing habits and are concerned with the securityrisk of putting their financial information on a phone. These consumers tend to prefer the use of traditional credit cards in addition to cash. We believe that credit and debit card fraud will continue to be of concern to holders, even if the number of credit card holders/users continues to grow andwith it the number of credit card transactions. 3 Each year approximately 12.7 million people in the United States are victims of identity theft and 44% of known causes of identity theft can be traced to alost or stolen wallet or purse. We believe that our products can significantly reduce the incidence of identity theft by concealing the card holder’s personal information. The Wocket®protects personal information by storing it on an encrypted chip in the Wocket® which can only be accessed by an alpha-numeric PIN and the associatedsmartcard does not retain any information after the card has been swiped so, unlike the loss or theft of a wallet, the loss or theft of our products do not lead toa breach of personal information. Rather than try to predict the winning technology in this fast paced evolving payment technology industry, our business plan is to develop secure solutionsthat can make payments using any form of payment technology from traditional magnetic stripe to NFC, Bluetooth, EMV and barcodes. We believe that our Wi-Mag™ technology, possibly in combination with our voice and facial recognition biometric technologies, will provide anopportunity for smartphone manufacturers who currently do not have a payment solution on their smartphones to license that capability from us. We believethat this is a large potential opportunity for us. According to Gartner (March 2015), worldwide smartphone sales to end users were approximate 1.2 billionunits in 2015. 1 billion of these units had Android operating systems. Our Competition The markets for our products are extremely competitive and are characterized by rapid technological change as a result of technical developments exploitedby our competitors, changing technical needs of customers, and frequent introductions of new features. We expect competition to increase as other companiesintroduce products that are competitively priced, that may have increased performance or functionality, or that incorporate technological advances not yetdeveloped or implemented by us. Some of our present and potential competitors may have financial, marketing, and research resources substantially greaterthan ours. Competitors in the digital wallet marketplace include: Google Wallet – A mobile payment system developed by Google that allows its users to store debit cards, credit cards, loyalty cards, and gift cards amongother things, as well as redeeming sales promotions on their mobile phone. Apple Pay – A mobile payment service that lets certain Apple mobile devices make payments at the time of retail and online checkout. Paypal – A mobile service that can send money between other PayPal users and friends, track your balances, check in to pay from ones phone, and orderahead at restaurants. Samsung/LoopPay – A mobile payment system that uses Magnetic Secure Transmission to broadcast a signal to a point of sale payment terminal. Thiscompany was acquired by Samsung Electronics Co. in February 2015. The advantage of our payment products is that our products are capable of using many different methods of payment whereas most of our competitors relysolely on NFC which has limited penetration at POS terminals worldwide. 4 Our Business Strategy We have established a strategic partnership with WVH an international direct selling travel company, to supply them with a white label NXT Smartcard.WVH intends to purchase the product from us for its membership, which is currently in excess of 500,000 members. We intend to pursue similar relationshipswith partners that have a connected customer base. More and more mobile phones are being used as a source of payment for goods and services. We believe that worldwide mobile payment volume willcontinue to grow rapidly in the upcoming years. We are actively marketing our Wi-Mag™ technology to manufacturers of smartphones to enable them tocompete with payment offerings from the two major brands: Samsung and Apple. We believe that this will result in significant licensing revenue and is a veryscalable business model. The Wocket®, while technically very well received, has had a delayed expanded launch in the United States as the introduction of EMV chip technology haslimited the number of POS terminals that will accept payment by the Wocket®. We are addressing this by incorporating NFC payment capability in theWocket® as NFC is accepted at many POS terminals that are configured for EMV chip cards. The hardware element is already incorporated in currentWocket® inventory and we are in the process of working with financial institutions and payment companies to enable the processing of these transactions.We expect to have this capability enabled in the third quarter of 2016. We are also pursuing export opportunities for the Wocket® to overseas markets whichhave not adopted EMV chip technology and where the Wocket® has a very high rate of acceptance. We have developed several proprietary methods of encryption and tokenization that we believe will help reduce fraud in credit card transactions. Thesetechnologies can be applied both at the point of sale and for online transactions. We intend to market our encryption capabilities to potential financialpartners which, if successful could generate a significant source of recurring revenue per transaction to us. We continue to develop opportunities for our biometric and sensor capabilities with the Department of Defense. We are partnered with established primecontractors that have or are bidding for contracts through which sales may be made. Our current partners include Battelle Memorial Institute and VerizonFederal Systems. We are a sub-contractor to Battelle Memorial Institute on the Department of Defense Technical Information Engineering Services (“TIES”)contract with a contract ceiling of $995 million. This is an IDIQ (indefinite delivery indefinite quantity) contract and requires approved contractors to bid ontask orders. We have not bid on any task orders to date. Our Intellectual Property Our ability to compete effectively depends to a significant extent on our ability to protect our proprietary information. We currently rely and will continue torely primarily on patents and trade secret laws and confidentiality procedures to protect our intellectual property rights. We have filed the following 19patents: METHOD FOR REPLACING TRADITIONAL PAYMENT AND IDENTITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONALSECURITY AND A SYSTEM IMPLEMENTING SAID METHODFiled October 8, 2013Application Number 14/049175 THE UN-PASSWORD™: REAL-TIME MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION VIA DYNAMIC PAIRINGFiled March 17, 2013Application Number 61/802,681 THE UN-PASSWORD™: RISK AWARE END-TO-END MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION VIA DYNAMIC PAIRINGFiled March 17, 2014Application Number 14/217,202 UNIVERSAL AUTHENTICATION AND DATA EXCHANGE METHOD, SYSTEM AND SERVICEFiled March 17, 2014Application Number 14/217,289 5 METHODS AND SYSTEMS TO ADD ELECTRONICS TO MATERIALS TO FORM A SMART WALLETProvisional application filed September 2, 2014Application Number 62/044,496 METHOD TO LOCALLY VALIDATE IDENTITY WITHOUT PUTTING PRIVACY AT RISKNon-provisional application filed September 1, 2015Application Number 14/842,252 DISTRIBUTED METHOD AND SYSTEM TO IMPROVE COLLABORATIVE SERVICES ACROSS MULTIPLE DEVICESNon-provisional application filed February 8, 2016Application Number 15/018,496 VOICE DIRECTED PAYMENT SYSTEM AND METHODNon-provisional application filed February 10, 2016Application Number 15/040,984 MINIATURE, Multi-purpose ANTENNA METHOD and SYSTEM FOR Low-Power CLOSE-PROXIMITY COMMUNICATIONS and energy transferProvisional application filed April 3, 2015Application Number 62/143,028 PERSONALIZED AND INTELLIGENTLY CONNECTED METHOD AND SYSTEM TO AUTHENTICATE AND BACKUP DATA ON A DEVICEProvisional application filed June 23, 2015Application Number 62/183,298 BEHAVIORAL-DIRECTED AUTHENTICATION METHOD AND SYSTEMProvisional application filed July 5, 2015Application Number 62/188,684 PERSONALIZED TOKENIZATION SYSTEM AND METHODProvisional application filed July 14, 2015Application Number 62/192,218 METHOD AND SYSTEM TO SECURELY SUGGEST LOYALTY AND PAYMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION AND ADVERTISE CONSUMERINFORMATIONProvisional application filed July 15, 2015Application Number 62/192,688 METHODS AND SYSTEMS RELATED TO MULTI-FACTOR, MULTI-DIMENSIONAL, HIDDEN SECURITY PINSProvisional application filed July 30, 2015Application Number 62/198,817 ELECTRONIC CRYPTO-CURRENCY MANAGEMENT METHOD AND SYSTEMProvisional application filed July 30, 2015Application Number 62/198,989Inventors D.

We enter into confidentialityagreements with our consultants and key employees, and maintain control over access to and distribution of our technology, software and other proprietaryinformation. The steps we have taken to protect our technology may be inadequate to prevent others from using what we regard as our technology to competewith us. We do not generally conduct exhaustive patent searches to determine whether the technology used in our products infringes patents held by third parties. Inaddition, product development is inherently uncertain in a rapidly evolving technological environment in which there may be numerous patent applicationspending, many of which are confidential when filed, with regard to similar technologies. We may face claims by third parties that our products or technology infringe their patents or other intellectual property rights in the future. Any claim ofinfringement could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, even if the claim is invalid, and could distract the attention of ourmanagement. If any of our products are found to violate third-party proprietary rights, we may be required to pay substantial damages. In addition, we may berequired to re-engineer our products or seek to obtain licenses from third parties to continue to offer our products. Any efforts to re-engineer our products orobtain licenses on commercially reasonable terms may not be successful, which would prevent us from selling our products, and in any case, couldsubstantially increase our costs and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Corporate Information History We were incorporated in the state of Delaware on February 8, 2012. We are an emerging growth technology company that is focused on products, solutions,and services for security on mobile devices. Company’s core technologies are in digital payments, biometric identification; encryption; sensors andminiaturization. We have three distinct lines of business that we are currently pursuing: mobile commerce (“m-commerce”) primarily through the applicationof secure digital payment technologies; biometric access control applications; and Department of Defense contracting. Effective June 25, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests in 3D-ID, a limited liability company formed in Florida in February 2011and owned by the Company’s founders. Since this was a transaction between entities under common control, in accordance with Accounting StandardsCodification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations”, Nxt-ID recognized the net assets of 3D-ID at their carrying amounts in the accounts of Nxt-ID on thedate that 3D-ID was organized, February 14, 2011. Other Our principal executive offices are located at 285 North Drive, Suite D, Melbourne, FL 32904, and our telephone number is (203) 266-2103. Our websiteaddress is www.nxt-id.com. The information contained therein or connected thereto shall not be deemed to be incorporated into this Report. The informationon our website is not part of this Report. We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growthcompany for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenue exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date thatwe become a ‘‘large accelerated filer’’ as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that isheld by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we haveissued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period. Pursuant to Section 102 of the JOBS Act, we have providedreduced executive compensation disclosure and have omitted a compensation discussion and analysis from this Report. Pursuant to Section 107 of the JOBSAct, we have elected to utilize the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revisedaccounting standards. Employees As of December 31, 2015, we had a total of 17 full-time employees, 8 in product engineering, 3 in finance and administration and 6 in customer service andproduct fulfillment. None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining agreement, nor have we experienced any work stoppage. We considerour relations with our employees to be good. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified engineers, graphicdesigners, computer scientists, sales and marketing and senior management personnel. In addition, we have independent contractors whose services we areusing on an as-needed basis to assist with the engineering and design of our products. 7 Item 1A.Risk Factors Our business, financial condition and operating results are subject to a number of risk factors, both those that are known to us and identified below and othersthat may arise from time to time. These risk factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those suggested by forward-looking statements inthis report and elsewhere, and may adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. If any of those risk factors should occur, moreover,the trading price of our securities could decline, and investors in our securities could lose all or part of their investment in our securities. These risk factorsshould be carefully considered in evaluating our prospects. Risks Relating to our Business We are uncertain of our ability to continue as a going concern, indicating the possibility that we may not be able to operate in the future. To date, we have completed only the initial stages of our business plan and we can provide no assurance that we will be able to generate a sufficient amountof revenue, if at all, from our business in order to achieve profitability. It is not possible for us to predict at this time the potential success of our business. Therevenue and income potential of our proposed business and operations are currently unknown. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, you may lose some orall of your investment in our company. The Company is an emerging growth entity and has incurred net losses of $13,076,854 for the year ended December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, theCompany had cash and stockholders’ equity of $418,991 and $881,333, respectively. At December 31, 2015, the Company had working capital of $508,119.Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon, among other factors, our ability to raise additional cash from equity financings, secure debtfinancing, and/or generate revenue from the sales of our products. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital. If we areunable to secure additional capital, we may be required to curtail our research and development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs inorder to conserve our cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet our obligations. Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report contains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continueas a going concern. Because we are an emerging growth company, we expect to incur significant additional operating losses. The Company is an emerging growth entity. The amount of future losses and when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our current productshave not generated significant commercial revenue for the Company and there can be no guarantee that we can generate sufficient revenues from thecommercial sale of our products in the near future to fund our ongoing capital needs. We have a limited operating history upon which you can gauge our ability to obtain profitability. We have a limited operating history and our business and prospects must be considered in light of the risks and uncertainties to which emerging growthcompanies are exposed. We cannot provide assurances that our business strategy will be successful or that we will successfully address those risks and therisks described herein. Most important, if we are unable to secure future capital, we may be unable to continue our operations. We may incur losses on aquarterly or annual basis for a number of reasons, some of which may be outside our control. If we cannot obtain additional capital required to finance our research and development efforts, our business may suffer and you may lose the value ofyour investment. We may require additional funds to further execute our business plan and expand our business. If we are unable to obtain additional capital when needed, wemay have to restructure our business or delay or abandon our development and expansion plans. If this occurs, you may lose part or all of your investment.We will have ongoing capital needs as we expand our business. If we raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible securities, yourownership percentage of our common stock will be reduced. In addition, these transactions may dilute the value of our common stock. We may have to issuesecurities that have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock. The terms of any additional indebtedness may include restrictive financialand operating covenants that would limit our ability to compete and expand. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the additionalfinancing we may need to fund our business, or that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to us. We will require additional capital in the future to develop the NFC Wocket®. If we do not obtain any such additional financing, if required, our businessprospects, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected. We will require additional capital in the future to develop the NFC Wocket®. We may not be able to secure adequate additional financing when needed onacceptable terms, or at all. To execute our business strategy, we may issue additional equity securities in public or private offerings, potentially at a pricelower than the market price of our common stock at the time of such issuance. If we cannot secure sufficient additional funding we may be forced to foregostrategic opportunities or delay, scale back and eliminate future product development. 8 We face intense competition in our market, especially from larger, well-established companies, and we may lack sufficient financial or other resources tomaintain or improve our competitive position. A number of other companies engage in the business of developing applications for facial recognition for access control. The market for biometric securityproducts is intensely competitive, and we expect competition to increase in the future from established competitors and new market entrants. Our currentcompetitors include both emerging or developmental stage companies such as ourselves as well as larger companies. Many of our existing competitors have,and some of our potential competitors could have, substantial competitive advantages such as: ●Greater name recognition and longer operating histories; ●Larger sales and marketing budgets and resources; ●Broader distribution and established relationships with distribution partners and end-customers; ●Greater customer support resources; ●Greater resources to make acquisitions; ●Larger and more mature intellectual property portfolios; and ●Substantially greater financial, technical, and other resources. In addition, some of our larger competitors have substantially broader product offerings and leverage their relationships based on other products orincorporate functionality into existing products to gain business in a manner that discourages users from purchasing our products, including through sellingat zero or negative margins, product bundling, or closed technology platforms. Conditions in our market could change rapidly and significantly as a result oftechnological advancements, partnering by our competitors or continuing market consolidation. New start-up companies that innovate and large competitorsthat are making significant investments in research and development may invent similar or superior products and technologies that compete with ourproducts and technology. Our current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties that mayfurther enhance their resources. Our markets are subject to technological change and our success depends on our ability to develop and introduce new products. Each of the governmental and commercial markets for our products is characterized by: ●Changing technologies; ●Changing customer needs; ●Frequent new product introductions and enhancements; ●Increased integration with other functions; and ●Product obsolescence. Our success will be dependent in part on the design and development of new products. To develop new products and designs for our target markets, we mustdevelop, gain access to and use leading technologies in a cost-effective and timely manner and continue to expand our technical and design expertise. Theproduct development process is time-consuming and costly, and there can be no assurance that product development will be successfully completed, thatnecessary regulatory clearances or approvals will be granted on a timely basis, or at all, or that the potential products will achieve market acceptance. Ourfailure to develop, obtain necessary regulatory clearances or approvals for, or successfully market potential new products could have a material adverse effecton our business, financial condition and results of operations. Claims by others that we infringe their intellectual property rights could increase our expenses and delay the development of our business. As a result, ourbusiness and financial condition could be harmed. Our industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents as well as frequent claims and related litigation regarding patent and otherintellectual property rights. We cannot be certain that our products do not and will not infringe issued patents, patents that may be issued in the future, orother intellectual property rights of others. We do not have the resources to conduct exhaustive patent searches to determine whether the technology used in our products infringes patents held by thirdparties. In addition, product development is inherently uncertain in a rapidly evolving technological environment in which there may be numerous patentapplications pending, many of which are confidential when filed, with regard to similar technologies. We may face claims by third parties that our products or technology infringe their patents or other intellectual property rights. Any claim of infringementcould cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, even if the claim is invalid, and could distract the attention of our management. If anyof our products are found to violate third-party proprietary rights, we may be required to pay substantial damages. In addition, we may be required to re-engineer our products or obtain licenses from third parties to continue to offer our products. Any efforts to re-engineer our products or obtain licenses oncommercially reasonable terms may not be successful, which would prevent us from selling our products, and, in any case, could substantially increase ourcosts and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Existing or pending patents could adversely affect our business. On November 12, 2015, we received a complaint that one of our technologies infringed upon one or more claims of a patent(s) issued to the claimant. Theclaimant has subsequently acknowledged that we are not currently infringing on their patent(s) as the technology in question is not commercially availableat the current time. We are in the process of negotiating a future royalty agreement with the claimant should we decide to introduce this technology in thefuture. 9 We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights adequately. Our ability to compete for government contracts is affected, in part, by our ability to protect our intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination ofpatents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and non-disclosure and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual propertyrights. Despite these efforts, we cannot be certain that the steps we take to protect our proprietary information will be adequate to prevent misappropriation ofour technology or protect that proprietary information. The validity and breadth of claims in technology patents involve complex legal and factual questionsand, therefore, may be highly uncertain. Nor can we assure you that, if challenged, our patents will be found to be valid or enforceable, or that the patents ofothers will not have an adverse effect on our ability to do business. In addition, the enforcement of laws protecting intellectual property may be inadequate toprotect our technology and proprietary information. We may not have the resources to assert or protect our rights to our patents and other intellectual property. Any litigation or proceedings relating to ourintellectual property, whether or not meritorious, will be costly and may divert the efforts and attention of our management and technical personnel. We also rely on other unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets and know-how and no assurance can be given that others will not independentlydevelop substantially equivalent proprietary technology, techniques or processes, that such technology or know-how will not be disclosed or that we canmeaningfully protect our rights to such unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, or know-how. Although intend to enter into non-disclosureagreements with our employees and consultants, there can be no assurance that such non-disclosure agreements will provide adequate protection for our tradesecrets or other proprietary know-how. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain new patents. To date, we have licensed sixteen (16) United States patents and our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patent and trade secret protectionfor proprietary technology that we currently possess or that we may develop in the future. No assurance can be given that any pending or future patentapplications will issue as patents, that the scope of any patent protection obtained will be sufficient to exclude competitors or provide competitiveadvantages to us, that any of our patents will be held valid if subsequently challenged or that others will not claim rights in or ownership of the patents andother proprietary rights held by us. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that our competitors have not or will not independently develop technology, processes or products that aresubstantially similar or superior to ours, or that they will not duplicate any of our products or design around any patents issued or that may be issued in thefuture to us. In addition, whether or not patents are issued to us, others may hold or receive patents which contain claims having a scope that covers productsor processes developed by us. We may not have the resources to adequately defend any patent infringement litigation or proceedings. Any such litigation or proceedings, whether or notdetermined in our favor or settled by us, is costly and may divert the efforts and attention of our management and technical personnel. In addition, we may berequired to obtain licenses to patents or proprietary rights from third parties. There can be no assurance that such licenses will be available on acceptableterms if at all. If we do not obtain required licenses, we could encounter delays in product development or find that the development, manufacture or sale ofproducts requiring such licenses could be foreclosed. Accordingly, challenges to our intellectual property, whether or not ultimately successful, could have amaterial adverse effect on our business and results of operations. We rely on a third party for licenses relating to a critical component of our technology. The failure of such licensor would materially and adversely affectour business and product offerings. We currently license technology for a critical component of our current product offerings from a third party. The third party’s independent registered publicaccounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its audit report as it relates to the third party’s ability to continue as a going concern in its recentfinancial statement. In the event that our licensor were to fail, it could impact our license arrangement and impede our ability to further commercialize ourtechnology. In the event we were to lose our license or our license were to be renegotiated as a result of our licensor’s failure, our ability to manage ourbusiness would suffer and it would significantly harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Our future success depends on the continued service of management, engineering and sales personnel and our ability to identify, hire and retain additionalpersonnel. Our success depends, to a significant extent, upon the efforts and abilities of members of senior management. We have entered into an employment agreementwith our Chief Executive Officer, but have not entered into an employment agreement with our Chief Financial officer or Chief Technology Officer and wehave no current plans to use employment agreements as a tool to attract and retain new hires that we may make of key personnel in the future. The loss of theservices of one or more of our senior management or other key employees could adversely affect our business. We currently maintain a key person lifeinsurance policy on our Chief Executive Officer only. There is intense competition for qualified employees in our industry, particularly for highly skilled design, applications, engineering and sales people. Wemay not be able to continue to attract and retain developers, managers, or other qualified personnel necessary for the development of our business or toreplace qualified individuals who may leave us at any time in the future. Our anticipated growth is expected to place increased demands on our resources, andwill likely require the addition of new management and engineering staff as well as the development of additional expertise by existing managementemployees. If we lose the services of or fail to recruit engineers or other technical and management personnel, our business could be harmed. 10 The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and divert management’s attention. As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Dodd-Frank Act and otherapplicable securities rules and regulations. Compliance with these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make someactivities more difficult, time-consuming, or costly, and increase demand on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, thatwe file annual and current reports with respect to our business and operating results. As a result of disclosure of information in this prospectus and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition is more visible,which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business andoperating results could be harmed, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resourcesnecessary to resolve them, could divert resources of our management and harm our business and operating results. Periods of rapid growth and expansion could place a significant strain on our resources, including our employee base, which could negatively impact ouroperating results. We may experience periods of rapid growth and expansion, which may place significant strain and demands on our management, our operational andfinancial resources, customer operations, research and development, marketing and sales, administrative, and other resources. To manage our possible futuregrowth effectively, we will be required to continue to improve our management, operational and financial systems. Future growth would also require us tosuccessfully hire, train, motivate and manage our employees. In addition, our continued growth and the evolution of our business plan will require significantadditional management, technical and administrative resources. If we are unable to manage our growth successfully we may not be able to effectively managethe growth and evolution of our current business and our operating results could suffer. We depend on contract manufacturers, and our production and products could be harmed if it is unable to meet our volume and quality requirements andalternative sources are not available. We rely on contract manufacturers to provide manufacturing services for our products. If these services become unavailable, we would be required to identifyand enter into an agreement with a new contract manufacturer or take the manufacturing in-house. The loss of our contract manufacturers could significantlydisrupt production as well as increase the cost of production, thereby increasing the prices of our products. These changes could have a material adverseeffect on our business and results of operations. Our insiders and affiliated parties beneficially own a significant portion of our stock. As of the date of hereof, our executive officers, directors, and affiliated parties beneficially own approximately 48.18% of our common stock. As a result, ourexecutive officers, directors and affiliated parties will have significant influence to: ●Elect or defeat the election of our directors; ●Amend or prevent amendment of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws; ●Effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and ●Affect the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote. In addition, any sale of a significant amount of our common stock held by our directors and executive officers, or the possibility of such sales, couldadversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer orotherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing any gains from ourcommon stock. We are presently a small company with limited resources and personnel to establish a comprehensive system of internal controls. If we fail to maintain aneffective system of internal controls, we would not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potentialstockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financialreports or prevent fraud, our brand and operating results would be harmed. We may in the future discover areas of our internal controls that needimprovement. For example, because of size and limited resources, our external auditors may determine that we lack the personnel and infrastructure necessaryto properly carry out an independent audit function. Although we believe that we have adequate internal controls for a company with our size and resources,we are not certain that the measures that we have in place will ensure that we implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes andreporting in the future. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, would harm ouroperating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls would also cause investors to lose confidence in our reportedfinancial information, which would have a negative effect on our company and, if a public market develops for our securities, the trading price of our stock. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reportingis a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordancewith U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financialreporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detectedon a timely basis. 11 If we do not effectively manage changes in our business, these changes could place a significant strain on our management and operations. Our ability to grow successfully requires an effective planning and management process. The expansion and growth of our business could place a significantstrain on our management systems, infrastructure and other resources. To manage our growth successfully, we must continue to improve and expand oursystems and infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner. Our controls, systems, procedures and resources may not be adequate to support a changing andgrowing company. If our management fails to respond effectively to changes and growth in our business, including acquisitions, this could have a materialadverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we decide to take advantage of certain exemptions from variousreporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, our common stock could be less attractive to investors. We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerginggrowth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are notemerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements ofholding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Wecould be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although we could lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1 billion, if we issue more than$1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, or if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the lastbusiness day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, in which case we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the followingDecember 31. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find ourcommon stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply toprivate companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will besubject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. We may not be able to access the equity or credit markets. We face the risk that we may not be able to access various capital sources including investors, lenders, or suppliers. Failure to access the equity or creditmarkets from any of these sources could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and futureprospects. Persistent global economic trends could adversely affect our business, liquidity and financial results. Although improving, persistent global economic conditions, particularly the scarcity of capital available to smaller businesses, could adversely affect us,primarily through limiting our access to capital and disrupting our clients’ businesses. In addition, continuation or worsening of general market conditionsin economies important to our businesses may adversely affect our clients’ level of spending and ability to obtain financing, leading to us being unable togenerate the levels of sales that we require. Current and continued disruption of financial markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’sbusiness, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects. We may seek or need to raise additional funds. Our ability to obtain financing for general corporate and commercial purposes or acquisitions depends onoperating and financial performance, and is also subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors beyond our control.The global credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil characterized by the bankruptcy,failure or sale of various financial institutions. An unprecedented level of intervention from the U.S. and other governments has been seen. As a result of suchdisruption, our ability to raise capital may be severely restricted and the cost of raising capital through such markets or privately may increase significantly ata time when we would like, or need, to do so. Either of these events could have an impact on our flexibility to fund our business operations, make capitalexpenditures, pursue additional expansion or acquisition opportunities, or make another discretionary use of cash and could adversely impact our financialresults. 12 Although recent trends point to continuing improvements, there is still lingering volatility and uncertainty. A change or disruption in the global financialmarkets for any reason may cause consumers, businesses and governments to defer purchases in response to tighter credit, decreased cash availability anddeclining consumer confidence. Accordingly, demand for our products could decrease and differ materially from their current expectations. Further, some ofour customers may require substantial financing in order to fund their operations and make purchases from us. The inability of these customers to obtainsufficient credit to finance purchases of our products and meet their payment obligations to us or possible insolvencies of our customers could result indecreased customer demand, an impaired ability for us to collect on outstanding accounts receivable, significant delays in accounts receivable payments, andsignificant write-offs of accounts receivable, each of which could adversely impact our financial results. Risks Related to Our Biometric Recognition Applications and Related Products Our biometric products and technologies may not be accepted by the intended commercial consumers of our products, which could harm our futurefinancial performance. There can be no assurance that our biometric systems will achieve wide acceptance by commercial consumers of such security-based products, and marketacceptance generally. The degree of market acceptance for products and services based on our technology will also depend upon a number of factors,including the receipt and timing of regulatory approvals, if any, and the establishment and demonstration of the ability of our proposed device to provide thelevel of security in an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost. Our failure to develop a commercial product to compete successfully with existing securitytechnologies could delay, limit or prevent market acceptance. Moreover, the market for new biometric-based security systems is largely undeveloped, and webelieve that the overall demand for mobile biometric-based security systems technology will depend significantly upon public perception of the need forsuch a level of security. There can be no assurance that the public will believe that our level of security is necessary or that private-industry will activelypursue our technology as a means to solve their security issues. Long-term market acceptance of our products and services will depend, in part, on thecapabilities, operating features and price of our products and technologies as compared to those of other available products and services. As a result, there canbe no assurance that currently available products, or products under development for commercialization, will be able to achieve market penetration, revenuegrowth or profitability. Our biometric applications may become obsolete if we do not effectively respond to rapid technological change on a timely basis. The biometric identification and personal identification industries are characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product innovations,changes in customer requirements and expectations and evolving industry standards. If we are unable to keep pace with these changes, our business may beharmed. Products using new technologies, or emerging industry standards, could make our technologies less attractive. If addition, we may face unforeseenproblems when developing our products, which could harm our business. Furthermore, our competitors may have access to technologies not available to us,which may enable them to produce products of greater interest to consumers or at a more competitive cost. Our biometric applications are new and our business model is evolving. Because of the new and evolving nature of biometric technology, it is difficult topredict the size of this specialized market, the rate at which the market for our biometric applications will grow or be accepted, if at all, or whether otherbiometric technologies will render our applications less competitive or obsolete. If the market for our biometric applications fails to develop or grows slowerthan anticipated, we would be significantly and materially adversely affected. 13 If our products and services do not achieve market acceptance, we may never have significant revenues or any profits. If we are unable to operate our business as contemplated by our business model or if the assumptions underlying our business model prove to be unfounded,we could fail to achieve our revenue and earnings goals within the time we have projected, or at all, which would have a detrimental effect on our business. As a result, the value of your investment could be significantly reduced or completely lost. If WorldVentures Holdings, LLC, does not accept the custom card made for them, they may decide not to distribute the product which could significantlyaffect our future revenues and profitability. If WorldVentures Holdings, LLC, does not accept our prototype card being developed for them or if it fails to achieve market acceptance, it couldsignificantly affect our revenues and profits including the cancellation of part or all their disclosed purchase order. This could have a detrimental effect onour business. We may in the future experience competition from other biometric application developers. Competition in the development of biometric recognition is expected to become more intense. Competitors range from university-based research anddevelopment graphics labs to development-stage companies and major domestic and international companies. Many of these entities have financial,technical, marketing, sales, distribution and other resources significantly greater than those of our company. There can be no assurance that we can continueto develop our biometric technologies or that present or future competitors will not develop technologies that render our biometric applications obsolete orless marketable or that we will be able to introduce new products and product enhancements that are competitive with other products marketed by industryparticipants. We may fail to create new applications for our products and enter new markets, which would have an adverse effect on our operations, financial conditionand prospects. Our future success depends in part on our ability to develop and market our technology for applications other than those currently intended. If we fail in thesegoals, our business strategy and ability to generate revenues and cash flow would be significantly impaired. We intend to expend significant resources todevelop new technology, but the successful development of new technology cannot be predicted and we cannot guarantee we will succeed in these goals. Our products may have defects, which could damage our reputation, decrease market acceptance of our products, cause us to lose customers and revenueand result in costly litigation or liability. Our products may contain defects for many reasons, including defective design or manufacture, defective material or software interoperability issues.Products as complex as those we offer, frequently develop or contain undetected defects or errors. Despite testing defects or errors may arise in our existing ornew products, which could result in loss of revenue, market share, failure to achieve market acceptance, diversion of development resources, injury to ourreputation, and increased service and maintenance cost. Defects or errors in our products and solutions might discourage customers from purchasing futureproducts. Often, these defects are not detected until after the products have been shipped. If any of our products contain defects or perceived defects or havereliability, quality or compatibility problems or perceived problems, our reputation might be damaged significantly, we could lose or experience a delay inmarket acceptance of the affected product or products and might be unable to retain existing customers or attract new customers. In addition, these defectscould interrupt or delay sales. In the event of an actual or perceived defect or other problem, we may need to invest significant capital, technical, managerialand other resources to investigate and correct the potential defect or problem and potentially divert these resources from other development efforts. If we areunable to provide a solution to the potential defect or problem that is acceptable to our customers, we may be required to incur substantial product recall,repair and replacement and even litigation costs. These costs could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. We will provide warranties on certain product sales and allowances for estimated warranty costs are recorded during the period of sale. The determination ofsuch allowances requires us to make estimates of product return rates and expected costs to repair or to replace the products under warranty. We will establishwarranty reserves based on our best estimates of warranty costs for each product line combined with liability estimates based on the prior twelve months’sales activities. If actual return rates and/or repair and replacement costs differ significantly from our estimates, adjustments to recognize additional cost ofsales may be required in future periods. In addition, because our customers rely on secure authentication and identification of cardholder to preventunauthorized access to programs, PC’s, networks, or facilities, a malfunction of or design defect in its products (or even a perceived defect) could result inlegal or warranty claims against us for damages resulting from security breaches. If such claims are adversely decided against us, the potential liability couldbe substantial and have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Furthermore, the possible publicity associated with any such claim,whether or not decided against us, could adversely affect our reputation. In addition, a well-publicized security breach involving smart card-based or othersecurity systems could adversely affect the market’s perception of products like ours in general, or our products in particular, regardless of whether the breachis actual or attributable to our products. Any of the foregoing events could cause demand for our products to decline, which would cause its business andoperating results to suffer. 14 Risks Related to our Securities The market price for our common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly traded publicfloat, and lack of profits, which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. You may be unable to sell your common shares at or above yourpurchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you. The market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to the shares of larger, more established companies that tradeon a national securities exchange and have large public floats, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than the shares of suchlarger, more established companies for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, ourcommon stock is, compared to the shares of such larger, more established companies, sporadically and thinly traded. The price for our shares could, forexample, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common stock is sold on the market without commensurate demand. Secondly, we area speculative or “risky” investment due to our lack of profits to date. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fearof losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly andat greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a larger, more established company that trades on a national securities exchange and has a largepublic float. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common stock regardless of our operating performance. If we are not able to comply with the applicable continued listing requirements or standards of the NASDAQ Capital Market, NASDAQ could delist ourcommon stock. Our common stock is currently listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”). In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial andother continued listing requirements and standards, including those regarding director independence and independent committee requirements, minimumstockholders' equity, minimum share price, and certain corporate governance requirements. There can be no assurances that we will be able to comply withthe applicable listing standards. On October 6, 2015, we received a deficiency notice from NASDAQ stating that that the Company was not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule5550(b)(2), as the Company’s Market Value of Listed Securities (“MVLS") was below $35 million for the previous thirty (30) consecutive business days. Inaccordance with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3), the Company has been granted a 180 calendar day compliance period, or until April 4, 2016, toregain compliance with the minimum MVLS requirement. To regain compliance, the Company's MVLS must close at $35 million or more for a minimum often (10) consecutive business days during the 180 calendar day compliance period. During the compliance period, the Company’s shares of common stockwill continue to be listed and traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. We intend to monitor its MVLS between now and April 4, 2016, and will consider andevaluate all available options to resolve the Company’s noncompliance with the MVLS requirement as may be necessary. There can be no assurance that theCompany will be able to regain compliance with the MVLS requirement or will otherwise be in compliance with other NASDAQ listing criteria. On November 30, 2015, we received a written notification from NASDAQ indicating that the Company was not in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule5550(a)(2), as the Company’s closing bid price for its common stock was below $1.00 per share for the last thirty (30) consecutive business days. Pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been granted a 180-calender day compliance period, or until May 31, 2016, to regaincompliance with the minimum bid price requirement. During the compliance period, the Company’s shares of common stock will continue to be listed andtraded on NASDAQ. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s shares of common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at leastten (10) consecutive business days during the 180-calender day compliance period. If the Company is not in compliance by May 31, 2016, the Company may be afforded a second 180-calender day compliance period. To qualify for thisadditional time, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listingstandards for NASDAQ with the exception of the minimum bid price requirement. In addition, the Company will be required to notify NASDAQ of itsintention to cure the minimum bid price deficiency by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company does not regain compliance within the allotted compliance period(s), including any extensions that may be granted by NASDAQ, NASDAQwill provide notice that the Company’s shares of common stock will be subject to delisting. In the event that our common stock is delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market and is not eligible for quotation on another market or exchange, trading ofour common stock could be conducted in the over-the-counter market or on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the PinkSheets or the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, it could become more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate price quotations for, our common stock, andthere would likely also be a reduction in our coverage by securities analysts and the news media, which could cause the price of our common stock to declinefurther. Also, it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital if we are not listed on a major exchange. 15 In the event that our common stock is delisted from NASDAQ, U.S. broker-dealers may be discouraged from effecting transactions in shares of our commonstock because they may be considered penny stocks and thus be subject to the penny stock rules. The SEC has adopted a number of rules to regulate “penny stock” that restricts transactions involving stock which is deemed to be penny stock. Such rulesinclude Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4, 15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. These rules may have the effect of reducing theliquidity of penny stocks. “Penny stocks” generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 per share (other than securities registered on certainnational securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market if current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securitiesis provided by the exchange or system). Our shares of common stock have in the past constituted, and may again in the future constitute, “penny stock”within the meaning of the rules. The additional sales practice and disclosure requirements imposed upon U.S. broker-dealers may discourage such broker-dealers from effecting transactions in shares of our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of such shares of common stock andimpede their sale in the secondary market. A U.S. broker-dealer selling penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or “accredited investor” (generally, an individual with net worth inexcess of $1,000,000 or an annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with his or her spouse) must make a special suitability determinationfor the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwiseexempt. In addition, the “penny stock” regulations require the U.S. broker-dealer to deliver, prior to any transaction involving a “penny stock”, a disclosureschedule prepared in accordance with SEC standards relating to the “penny stock” market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt. AU.S. broker-dealer is also required to disclose commissions payable to the U.S. broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for thesecurities. Finally, a U.S. broker-dealer is required to submit monthly statements disclosing recent price information with respect to the “penny stock” held ina customer’s account and information with respect to the limited market in “penny stocks”. Stockholders should be aware that, according to the SEC, the market for “penny stocks” has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Suchpatterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation ofprices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) “boiler room” practices involving high-pressuresales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by sellingbroker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level,resulting in investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect tobe in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines ofpractical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. If and when a larger trading market for our common stock develops, the market price of our common stock is still likely to be highly volatile and subjectto wide fluctuations, and you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the price at which you acquired them. The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that arebeyond our control, including, but not limited to: ●Variations in our revenues and operating expenses;●Actual or anticipated changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in stock market analyst recommendations regarding our commonstock, other comparable companies or our industry generally;●Market conditions in our industry, the industries of our customers and the economy as a whole;●Actual or expected changes in our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;●Developments in the financial markets and worldwide or regional economies;●Announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;●Announcements by the government relating to regulations that govern our industry;●Sales of our common stock or other securities by us or in the open market; and●Changes in the market valuations of other comparable companies. In addition, if the market for technology stocks or the stock market in general experiences loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stockcould decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or operating results. The trading price of our shares might also decline in reaction toevents that affect other companies in our industry, even if these events do not directly affect us. Each of these factors, among others, could harm the value ofyour investment in our common stock. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market, securities class-action litigation has often been institutedagainst companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, whichcould materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition. 16 We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future; you should not buy our stock if you expect dividends. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at suchtime as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on yourinvestment will only occur if our stock price appreciates. We currently intend to retain our future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion and, therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cashdividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. You may experience additional dilution in the future. We may acquire other technologies or finance strategic alliances by issuing equity, which may result in additional dilution to our stockholders. We could issue “blank check” preferred stock without stockholder approval with the effect of diluting then current stockholder interests and impairingtheir voting rights; and provisions in our charter documents could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable. Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock with designations, rights and preferencesas may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue a series ofpreferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could dilute the interest of, or impair the voting power of, our commonstockholders. The issuance of a series of preferred stock could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control. For example,it would be possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attemptto change control of our company. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock. FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that theinvestment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers mustmake reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Underinterpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for certain customers.FINRA requirements will likely make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have theeffect of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock,reducing a stockholder’s ability to resell shares of our common stock. 17 Item 1B.Unresolved Staff Comments.

We are not required to provide the information required by this Item as we are a smaller reporting company. Item 7.Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Overview Nxt-ID, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on February 8, 2012. We were initially known as Trylon Governmental Systems, Inc. We changed our name toNxt-ID, Inc. on June 25, 2012 to reflect our primary focus on our growing biometric identification, m-commerce and secure mobile platforms. On June 25, 2012, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests in 3D-ID LLC (“3D-ID”), a limited liability company formed in Florida inFebruary 2011 and owned by the Company’s founders. By acquiring 3D-ID, the Company gained the rights to a portfolio of patented technology in the fieldof three-dimensional facial recognition and imaging including 3D facial recognition products for access control, law enforcement and travel andimmigration. 3D-ID was an early stage company engaged in the design, research and development, integration, analysis, modeling, system networking, salesand support of intelligent surveillance, three-dimensional facial recognition and three-dimensional imaging devices and systems primarily for identificationand access control in the security industries. Since the Company’s acquisition of 3D-ID was a transaction between entities under common control inaccordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations”, Nxt-ID recognized the net assets of 3D-ID at their carryingamounts in the accounts of Nxt-ID on the date that 3D-ID was organized, February 14, 2011. 20 We are an emerging growth technology company that is focused on products, solutions, and services for security on mobile devices. Our core technologiesconsist of those that support digital payments, biometric identification, encryption, sensors, and miniaturization. We have three distinct lines of business thatwe are currently pursuing, which are in various stages of development: mobile commerce ("m-commerce"), primarily through the application of secure digitalpayment technologies; biometric access control applications, and Department of Defense contracting. Our initial efforts have primarily focused on thedevelopment of our secure products for the growing m-commerce market, most immediately, a secure mobile electronic smart wallet, the Wocket®. TheWocket® is a smart wallet, the next evolution in smart devices following the smartphone and smartwatch, designed to protect your identity and replace allthe cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required. The Wocket® works almost everywhere credit cards are accepted. We are also developing a smartcardthat functions in a similar manner to the Wocket® and have a distribution agreement with an international direct selling company to distribute that product.Our biometric access control applications and defense contracting opportunities are still in their emerging growths. We believe that our MobileBio® products will provide distinct advantages within m-commerce market by improving mobile security. Currently most mobiledevices continue to be protected simply by PIN numbers. This security methodology is easily duplicated on another device, and can easily be spoofed orhacked. Our security paradigm is Dynamic Pairing Codes ("DPC"). DPC is a new, proprietary method, to secure users, devices, accounts, locations and serversover any communication media by sharing key identifiers, including biometric-enabled identifiers, between end-points by passing dynamic pairing codes(random numbers) between end-points to establish sessions and/or transactions without exposing identifiers or keys. The recent high-level breaches ofpersonal credit card data raises serious concerns among consumers about the safety of their money. These consumers are also resistant to letting technologycompanies learn even more about their personal purchasing habits. Our plan also anticipates that we will use our core biometric facial and voice recognition algorithms to develop security applications (both cloud based andlocally hosted) that can be used for companies (for industrial uses, such as enterprise computer networks) as well as individuals (for consumer uses, such assmart phones, tablets or personal computers), law enforcement, the defense industry, and the U.S. Department of Defense. We are an emerging growth entity and have incurred net losses since our inception. In order to execute our long-term strategic plan to develop andcommercialize our core products we will need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, or other means. We cangive no assurance that the cash raised subsequent to December 31, 2015 or any additional funds raised will be sufficient to execute our business plan. Theseconditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We can give no assurance that additional funds will be available onreasonable terms, or available at all, or that it will generate sufficient revenue to alleviate these conditions. We commenced shipping of the Wocket® at the end of the second quarter of 2015, primarily to tech savvy consumers. The implementation of the EMV chippoint of sale (“POS”) terminals in the United States has limited the number of POS systems that the Wocket® works at, so we have postponed the full launchof the product in the United States until we are able to implement Near Field Communication (“NFC”) technology on the Wocket® as well as our dynamicmagnetic stripe technology. NFC is a similar technology to ApplePay and GooglePay and works at many EMV enabled POS Terminals. We are also pursuingthe sale of the Wocket® in certain overseas markets that have not implemented chip cards and where the Wocket® works extremely well. We intend torelaunch Wocket® in the United States once NFC is operational. Current wocket inventory is hardware enabled for this purpose and we are finalizing thesoftware arrangements with banks and major payment companies to implement this technology. We anticipate relaunching the Wocket® in the United Stateswith NFC capability in the third quarter of 2016 and will accelerate efforts to export the product to suitable overseas markets 21 Results of Operations Year ended December 31, 2015, compared with the year ended December 31, 2014. Revenue. Our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $616,854 and we had no revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our revenues forthe year ended December 31, 2015 are related to shipments of the Wocket® to our early access pre-order customers as well as new customer orders placed in2015. In addition, the revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 included resale sales of the Wocket® to wholesale customers who resell the Wocket®through their respective distribution channels. The aggregate dollar amount of these resale sales was $167,466. The selling price per unit as it relates towholesale sales was considerably lower than our direct selling price to our individual customers which negatively impacted our gross profit margin. The salesprices to wholesale customers were significantly discounted in order to accelerate product awareness and adoption of the Wocket®. Cost of Revenue. Our cost of revenue includes our direct product cost to both our individual customers as well as our wholesale customers. During 2015, ourgross margin on sales to our wholesale customers was considerably lower than the gross margin resulting from sales to our individual customers as discussedabove. Our cost of revenue also includes a write off of excess and obsolete inventory of $343,216 resulting from our transition to version 2 of the Wocket® whichnow includes NFC technology. We also recorded an unfavorable book-to-physical inventory adjustment of $131,209 as well as scrap adjustments of$375,699 relating primarily to low early stage production yield. In addition, we recorded a lower of cost or market adjustment of $149,000 in anticipation ofour future sales to wholesale customers. We expect that our future selling price to wholesale customers will continue to be less on a per unit basis as comparedto our selling price per unit to our direct individual customers.

During the period, the note payable was converted into common stock and the Company successfully modified the terms of thewarrants with each of the holders. As a result, no derivative liabilities existed as of December 31, 2014. 22 Liquidity and Capital Resources We are an emerging growth company and have generated losses from operations since inception. In order to execute our long-term strategic plan to developand commercialize our core products, we will need to raise additional funds, through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, or other means. As ofDecember 31, 2015, the Company had cash of $418,991. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In order to execute the Company's long-term strategic plan to develop and commercialize its core products, the Company will need to raise additional funds,through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, or other means. The Company can give no assurance that the cash raised subsequent to December31, 2015 or any additional funds raised will be sufficient to execute its business plan. Additionally, the Company can give no assurance that additional fundswill be available on reasonable terms, or available at all, or that it will generate sufficient revenue to alleviate the going concern. Our cash balance on April12, 2016 was approximately $2.1 million after we received approximately $1.85 million in net proceeds on April 11, 2016 from the sale of 2,500,000 sharesof the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company’s ability to execute its business plan is dependent upon its ability to raise additional equity, secure debt financing, and/or generate revenue.Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing, or generate sufficient revenue to fund its operations, the Company would needto curtail certain of its operational activities. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should theCompany be unable to continue as a going concern. Cash Flows Cash and Working Capital We have incurred net losses of $13,076,854 and $7,076,609 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Pursuant to a securities purchase agreement with the January Purchasers(the “January Purchase Agreement”), the Company issued to the January Purchasers (i) 415,387 shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) warrants (the“January Warrants”) to purchase 1,350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.25 per share. In connection with the JanuaryOffering, 138,463 units were sold at the end of December 2013 and 276,924 units were sold in January 2014, all at $3.25 per unit. As a result, the Companyreceived aggregate gross proceeds of $450,000 in December 2013 from the issuance of 138,463 shares of common stock and 450,000 January Warrants, andthe Company received $900,000 in January 2014 from the issuance of 276,924 shares of common stock and 900,000 January Warrants. Costs incurredassociated with the January Offering in December 2013 and January 2014 were $56,820 and $100,006, respectively. In January 2014, the placement agentreceived 41,539 warrants to purchase 41,539 shares of the Company’s common stock as fees. Pursuant to the January Purchase Agreement, the Company’s founders who are members of management (the “Founders”) agreed to cancel a correspondingnumber of shares to those shares issued in the January Offering and place in escrow a corresponding number of shares to be cancelled for each JanuaryWarrant Share issued. As a result, the Founders retired 138,463 and 276,924 shares of common stock in December 2013 and January 2014, respectively. The January Warrants are exercisable for a period of five (5) years from the original issue date. On the date of issuance, the January Warrants were recognizedas derivative liabilities as they did not have fixed settlement provisions because their exercise prices could be lowered if the Company was to issue securitiesat a lower price in the future.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or specialpurpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limitedpurposes. In addition, we do not have any undisclosed borrowings or debt, and we have not entered into any synthetic leases. We are, therefore, not materiallyexposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships. Critical Accounting Policies The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have beenprepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain accounting policies and estimates areparticularly important to the understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by ourmanagement or can be materially affected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of our control. As a result, theyare subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, our management uses their judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions tobe used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical operations, our future business plans and projected financialresults, our observance of trends in the industry and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. Please see Note 3 to our consolidatedfinancial statements for a more complete description of our significant accounting policies. 28 We intend to utilize the extended transition period provided in Securities Act Section 7(a)(2)(B) as allowed by Section 107(b)(1) of the JOBS Act for theadoption of new or revised accounting standards as applicable to emerging growth companies. As part of the election, we will not be required to comply withany new or revised financial accounting standard until such time that a company that does not qualify as an “issuer” (as defined under Section 2(a) of theSarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) is required to comply with such new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company within the meaning of the rules under the Securities Act, and we will utilize certain exemptions from various reportingrequirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies. For example, we will not have to provide an auditor’sattestation report on our internal controls in future annual reports on Form 10-K as otherwise required by Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Inaddition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can utilize the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) ofthe Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accountingstandards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to utilize this extended transition period. Our financialstatements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards as they become applicable topublic companies. Basis of Presentation. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company is subject to the risks and uncertaintiesassociated with a new business, has no established source of revenue, and has incurred significant losses from operations since inception. The Company’soperations are dependent upon it raising additional capital. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a goingconcern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts orthe amounts and classification of liabilities that could result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our independent registered public accounting firm’s reportcontains an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been rendered or productdelivery has occurred, the price is fixed or readily determinable and collectability of the sale is reasonably assured. The Wocket® sales comprise multipleelement arrangements including both the wocket® smart wallet device itself as well as unspecified future upgrades. The Company offers to all of its end-consumer customers a period of fourteen days post the actual receipt date in which to return their Wocket®. The Company was unable to reliably estimatereturns at the time shipments were made during the year ended months ended December 31, 2015 due to lack of return history. Accordingly, the Company hasrecognized revenue only on those shipments whose fourteen day return period had lapsed by December 31, 2015. The Company accrues for the estimatedcosts associated with the one-year Wocket® warranty at the time revenue associated with the sale is recorded, and periodically updates its estimated warrantycost based on actual experience. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company’s revenues related to shipments of the Wocket® to customers who pre-ordered the product in 2014 aswell as to those customers who ordered the product in 2015. In addition, the revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 included resale sales of theWocket® who resell the Wocket® through their respective distribution channels. The aggregate amount of these two sales was $151,466. The terms andconditions of these sales provide the retail customers with trade credit terms. In addition, these sales were made to the retailers with no rights of return and aresubject to the normal warranties offered to the ultimate consumer for product defects. Warranty Costs. The Company’s product is sold with a one-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. The Companyaccrues for the estimated costs associated with the one-year Wocket® warranty at the time revenue associated with the sale is recorded, and periodicallyupdates its estimated warranty cost based on actual experience. Estimating warranty costs requires significant judgment. To date, warranty claims have beeninconsequential and the Company estimates any such claims against sales made to date will be immaterial. Accordingly, no accrual for warranty costs hasbeen recorded at December 31, 2015. Inventory. The Company performs regular reviews of inventory quantities on hand and evaluates the realizable value of its inventories. The Company willadjust the carrying value of the inventory as necessary with the estimated valuation reserves for excess, obsolete, and slow-moving inventory by comparingthe individual inventory parts to forecasted product demand or production requirements. Convertible Instruments. The Company applies the accounting standards for derivatives and hedging and for distinguishing liabilities from equity whenaccounting for hybrid contracts that feature conversion options. The accounting standards require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their hostinstruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria includes circumstances in which(i) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risksof the host contract, (ii) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair valueunder otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (iii) a separateinstrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. The derivative is subsequently markedto market at each reporting date based on current fair value, with the changes in fair value reported in the results of operations. Conversion options that contain variable settlement features such as provisions to adjust the conversion price upon subsequent issuances of equity or equitylinked securities at exercise prices more favorable than that featured in the hybrid contract generally result in their bifurcation from the host instrument. The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcatedfrom their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. The Company records, when necessary, discounts toconvertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of theunderlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts underthese arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt. 29 Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. TheCompany evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives.For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued atthe reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, theCompany uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The conversionfeature embedded within Company’s convertible note payable does not have fixed settlement provisions as the conversion price varies based on the tradingprice of the Company’s common stock and the potential number of common shares to be issued upon conversion is indeterminable up to a maximum of120,000 shares of common stock. In addition, the January Warrants issued in connection with the January Offering do not have fixed settlement as theirexercise prices may be lowered if the Company conducts an offering in the future at a price per share below the exercise price of the warrants. Accordingly,the conversion feature and warrants have been recognized as derivative instruments. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether suchinstruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in thebalance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve (12) monthsof the balance sheet date. Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. We are not required to provide the information required by this Item as we are a smaller reporting company. Item 8.Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. The financial statements, notes to the financial statements and the respective reports of the Company’s independent registered accountants required to befiled in response to this Item 8 begin on page F-1. Item 9.Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure. None. Item 9A.Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conductedan evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2015. Asdiscussed below, based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonableassurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reportedwithin the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executiveofficer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. As a result of the material weakness in internalcontrols over financial reporting described below, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015 were not effective. Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange ActRule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer,we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria set forth in the1992 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluationunder the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was noteffective as of December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, we have identified certain matters that constituted a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.Specifically, we have difficulty in accounting for complex accounting transactions due to an insufficient number of accounting personnel with experience inthat area and limited segregation of duties within our accounting and financial reporting functions. 30 This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financialreporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm as we are a smaller reporting company andnot required to provide the report. Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Control A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systemare met. Further, the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation ofcontrols can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include therealities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors. Additionally, controls can becircumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of anysystem of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design willsucceed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system,misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in the Company’s fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31,2015 covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controlover financial reporting.

These consolidated financialstatements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements basedon our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require thatwe plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includesexamining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accountingprinciples used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our auditprovides 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 Nxt-ID, Inc. andsubsidiary as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generallyaccepted accounting principles. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses from operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability tocontinue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in note 2. The consolidated financial statements do notinclude any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ KPMG LLPStamford, ConnecticutApril 14, 2016 F-2 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryCONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS December 31, December 31, 2015 2014 Assets Current Assets Cash $418,991 $2,201,287 Restricted cash 1,534,953 28,439 Inventory 1,767,942 359,544 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 1,039,405 918,204 Total Current Assets 4,761,291 3,507,474 Property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation of $196,353 and $13,157, respectively 373,214 156,223 Total Assets $5,134,505 $3,663,697 Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity Current Liabilities Accounts payable $1,333,137 $535,209 Accrued expenses 641,438 254,545 Customer deposits 8,729 138,599 Convertible notes payable, net of discount of $1,445,342 and $26,755, respectively 1,849,508 - Derivative liability conversion feature 420,360 - Total Current Liabilities 4,253,172 928,353 Commitments and Contingencies Stockholders' Equity Preferred stock, $0.0001 par value: 10,000,000 shares authorized; none issued and outstanding - - Common stock, $0.0001 par value: 100,000,000 shares authorized; 44,411,591 and 24,762,360 issued and outstanding,respectively 4,441 2,476 Additional paid-in capital 22,783,765 11,562,887 Accumulated deficit (21,906,873) (8,830,019) Total Stockholders' Equity 881,333 2,735,344 Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity $5,134,505 $3,663,697 The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

F-6 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL BUSINESS ACTIVITY Nxt-ID, Inc. (“Nxt-ID” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 8, 2012. Nxt-ID is a biometrics and authentication companyfocused on the growing m-commerce market with an innovative MobileBio™ suite of biometric solutions that secure mobile platforms. The Company alsoserves the access control and law enforcement facial recognition markets. 3D-ID, LLC (“3D-ID”) was organized and registered in the State of Florida on February 14, 2011. The Company is an emerging growth company engaged inthe design, research and development, integration, analysis, modeling, system networking, sales and support of intelligent surveillance, three dimensionalfacial recognition and three dimensional imaging devices and systems primarily for identification and access control in the security industries. On June 25, 2012, Nxt-ID, a company having similar ownership as 3D-ID, acquired 100% of the membership interests in 3D-ID (the “Acquisition”) inexchange for 20,000,000 shares of Nxt-ID common stock. Since this was a transaction between entities under common control, in accordance withAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations”, Nxt-ID recognized the net assets of 3D-ID at their carrying amounts in theaccounts of Nxt-ID on the date that 3D-ID was organized. NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT PLANS The Company is an emerging growth entity and incurred net losses of $13,076,854 during the year ended December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015 theCompany had working capital of $508,119 and stockholders’ equity of $881,333. In order to execute the Company's long-term strategic plan to develop andcommercialize its core products and fulfill its product development commitments, the Company will need to raise additional funds, through public or privateequity offerings, debt financings, or other means. The Company can give no assurance that the cash raised subsequent to December 31, 2015 or anyadditional funds raised will be sufficient to execute its business plan. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as agoing concern. The Company can give no assurance that additional funds will be available on reasonable terms, or available at all, or that it will generatesufficient revenue to alleviate these conditions. The Company’s ability to execute its business plan is dependent upon its ability to raise additional equity, secure debt financing, and/or generate revenue.Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing, or generate sufficient revenue to fund its operations, the Company would needto curtail certain of its operational activities. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should theCompany be unable to continue as a going concern. NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates andassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statementsand the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nxt-ID and its wholly-owned subsidiary, 3D-ID. Intercompany balances and transactions havebeen eliminated in consolidation. CASH The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Due to theirshort-term nature, cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents. F-7 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RESTRICTED CASH At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had restricted cash of $1,534,953 and $28,439, respectively. The restricted cash balance at December 31,2015 includes $1,500,000 received on December 31, 2015 as a result of the World Ventures Holdings transaction. See Note 7 for further informationregarding the World Ventures Holdings transaction. Restricted cash also includes amounts held back by the Company’s third party credit card processor forpotential customer refunds, claims and disputes. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company maintains its cashbalances in financial institutions located in the United States. At times, the Company’s cash balances may be uninsured or in deposit accounts that exceedthe Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been rendered or product delivery has occurred, theprice is fixed or readily determinable and collectability of the sale is reasonably assured. The Company’s wocket® smart wallet sales comprise multipleelement arrangements including both the wocket® smart wallet device itself as well as unspecified future upgrades. The Company offers to all of its end-consumer customers a period of fourteen days post the actual receipt date in which to return their wocket® smart wallet. The Company was unable to reliablyestimate returns at the time shipments were made during the twelve months ended December 31, 2015 due to lack of return history. Accordingly, theCompany has recognized revenue only on those shipments whose fourteen day return period had lapsed by December 31, 2015. The Company accrues for theestimated costs associated with the one year wocket® smart wallet warranty at the time revenue associated with the sale is recorded, and periodically updatesits estimated warranty cost based on actual experience. For the year ended December 31, 2015, The Company’s revenues related to shipments of the wocket® smart wallet to customers who pre-ordered the productin 2014 as well as to those customers who ordered the product in 2015. In addition, the revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 included resale salesof the wocket® smart wallet to retail customers who resell the wocket® smart wallet through their respective distribution channels. The aggregate amount ofthese resale sales was $167,164. The terms and conditions of these sales provide the retail customers with trade credit terms. In addition, these sales weremade to the retailers with no rights of return and are subject to the normal warranties offered to the ultimate consumer for product defects. LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value ofan asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 360-10-35-17 through 35-35 "Measurement of an Impairment Loss." The Company assesses theimpairment of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flow the assets are expected to generate compared to the carrying value of the assets. If thecarrying amount of the assets is determined not to be recoverable, a write-down to fair value is recorded. Management estimates future cash flows usingassumptions about expected future operating performance. Management's estimates of future cash flows may differ from actual cash flow due to, among otherthings, technological changes, economic conditions or changes to the Company's business operations. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consisting of furniture, fixtures and tooling is stated at cost. The costs of additions and improvements are generally capitalized andexpenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed in the period incurred. When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related costs andaccumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in income. Depreciation of property and equipment is providedutilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the respective asset as follows: Equipment 5 yearsFurniture and fixtures 3 to 5 yearsTooling and molds 2 to 3 years Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $183,196 and $12,473, respectively. Property and equipment, net at December 31, 2015 and 2014 consist of the following: December 31, 2015 2014 Equipment $105,902 $43,849 Furniture and fixtures $72,713 $48,157 Tooling and molds $390,952 $77,374 $569,567 $169,380 Accumulated depreciation $(196,353) $(13,157)Property and equipment, net $373,214 $156,223 F-8 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INVENTORY Effective October 1, 2015 for application prospectively, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, simplifying the Measurement ofInventory (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires that inventory is measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value, defined as estimated selling pricesin the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Previously, inventory was measured at thelower of cost or market. We adopted ASU 2015-11 in connection with our fourth quarter 2015 inventory valuation review, and prompted by the impact ofEMV chip point of sale and Nearfield Communication technologies on our business. As a result, our fourth quarter 2015 inventory valuation charges weredetermined based upon our inventory’s net realizable value. The Company performs regular reviews of inventory quantities on hand and evaluates the realizable value of its inventories. The Company adjusts thecarrying value of the inventory as necessary with estimated valuation reserves for excess, obsolete, and slow-moving inventory by comparing the individualinventory parts to forecasted product demand or production requirements. As of December 31, 2015 inventory was comprised of $1,587,653 in raw materialsand $180,289 in finished goods on hand. Inventory of $359,544 at December 31, 2014 was comprised solely of raw materials. As an emerging growth entity,the Company is required to prepay for raw materials with certain vendors until credit terms can be established. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, $49,103and $423,054, respectively of prepayments made primarily for raw materials inventory is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on theconsolidated balance sheet. CONVERTIBLE INSTRUMENTS The Company applies the accounting standards for derivatives and hedging and for distinguishing liabilities from equity when accounting for hybridcontracts that feature conversion options. The accounting standards require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments andaccount for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (i) the economiccharacteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the hostcontract, (ii) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value underotherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (iii) a separate instrumentwith the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. The derivative is subsequently marked to market at each reporting date based on current fair value, with the changes in fair value reported in the results ofoperations. Conversion options that contain variable settlement features such as provisions to adjust the conversion price upon subsequent issuances of equity or equitylinked securities at exercise prices more favorable than that featured in the hybrid contract generally result in their bifurcation from the host instrument. The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcatedfrom their host instruments in accordance with ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. The Company records, when necessary, discounts toconvertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of theunderlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts underthese arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt. See Note 5. DERIVATIVE FINANCIALS INSTRUMENTS The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of itsfinancial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financialinstruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date,with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses theBlack-Scholes option valuation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The conversion feature embeddedwithin Company’s convertible note payable does not have fixed settlement provisions as the conversion price varies based on the trading price of theCompany’s common stock and the potential number of common shares to be issued upon conversion is indeterminable up to a maximum of 120,000 shares ofcommon stock. In addition, the warrants issued in connection with the Offering (as defined in Note 8) do not have fixed settlement provisions as theirexercise prices may be lowered if the Company conducts an offering in the future at a price per share below the exercise price of the warrants. Accordingly,the conversion feature and warrants have been recognized as derivative instruments. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether suchinstruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in thebalance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of thebalance sheet date. (See Note 6.) DEBT DISCOUNT AND AMORTIZATION OF DEBT DISCOUNT Debt discount represents the fair value of embedded conversion options of various convertible debt instruments and attached convertible equity instrumentsissued in connection with debt instruments. The debt discount is amortized over the earlier of (i) the term of the debt or (ii) conversion of the debt. Theamortization of debt discount is included as a component of interest expense included in other income and expenses in the accompanying statements ofoperations. F-9 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) INCOME TAXES The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes." Under this method,income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporarydifferences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measuredusing enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Theeffect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. Avaluation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is morelikely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. ASC Topic 740-10-30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognitionthreshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.ASC Topic 740-10-40 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.The Company will classify as income tax expense any interest and penalties. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reportingperiods presented. Generally, the tax authorities may examine the partnership/corporate tax returns for three years from the date of filing. The Company hasfiled all of its tax returns for all prior periods through December 31, 2015. As a result, the Company’s net operating loss carryovers will now be available tooffset any future taxable income. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company accounts for share-based awards exchanged for employee services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. The Company accountsfor equity instruments issued to non-employees at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject toperiodic adjustment as the underlying equity instrument vests or becomes non-forfeitable. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are amortizedover the vesting period or as earned. NET LOSS PER SHARE Basic loss per share was computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share includes the effect of dilutedcommon stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities realizable from the exercise of 7,615,490 warrants as of December 31, 2015 were excluded from thecomputation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2014, potentially dilutivesecurities realizable from the exercise of 3,629,776 warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of theirinclusion would have been anti-dilutive. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and development costs consist of expenditures incurred during the course of planned research and investigation aimed at the discovery of newknowledge, which will be useful in developing new products or processes. The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 establishes a right-of-use("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leaseswill be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard iseffective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approachis required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in thefinancial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-02 on the auditedfinancial statements and related disclosures. In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation ofDebt Issuance Costs ("ASU 2015-03"), which provides guidance for simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 requires that debtissuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums.This guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not beenpreviously issued. The standard requires application on a retrospective basis and represents a change in accounting principle. In addition, in August 2015,Accounting Standards Update 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest ("ASU 2015-15"), was released, which codified guidance pursuant to the SEC StaffAnnouncement at the June 18, 2015 Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meeting about the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costsassociated with line-of-credit arrangements. Given the absence of authoritative guidance within ASU 2015-03 for debt issuance costs related to line-of-creditarrangements, ASU 2015-15 states the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequentlyamortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowingson the line-of-credit arrangement. The impact of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 on the Company's financial statements includes a reclassification ofdeferred debt issuance costs related to the Company's convertible notes payable to be presented in the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction fromthe carrying amount of those borrowings. The Company will adopt this accounting guidance in its first quarter of 2016. F-10 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS, CONTINUED The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation ofan Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASBEmerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this ASU state that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should bepresented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward,except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under thetax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of theapplicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized taxbenefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments in this ASU areeffective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should beapplied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of this standarddid not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts withCustomers (“ASU 2014-09”), which stipulates that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in anamount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for such goods or services. To achieve this core principle, anentity should apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract(s); (3) determinethe transaction price(s); (4) allocate the transaction price(s) to the performance obligations in the contract(s); and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entitysatisfies a performance obligation. The guidance also requires advanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cashflows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 with earlyadoption not permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each period presented or with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date ofinitial application. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2014-09. In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a GoingConcern (“ASU 2014-15”), amending FASB Accounting Standards Subtopic 205-40 to provide guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluatewhether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Specifically, theamendments (1) provide a definition of the term “substantial doubt,” (2) require an evaluation every reporting period, (3) provide principles for consideringthe mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’splans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one yearafter the date that financial statements are issued. ASU 2014-15 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods andinterim periods thereafter. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2014-15 and does not anticipate a material impact on its consolidated financialstatements.

The Notes will mature on December 8, 2016 (the “DecemberMaturity Date”), less any amounts converted or redeemed prior to the December Maturity Date. The December Notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum.The December Notes are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.55per share. In case of an Event of Default (as defined in the December Notes), the notes are convertible at 85% of the average of the five (5) lowest dailyWeighted Average Prices (as defined in the December Notes) in the prior fifteen (15) trading days, until such Event of Default has been cured. The conversionprice is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or similar events. The Notes are repayable from the earlier of June 7, 2016 or theeffective date of the initial registration statement that was filed with this offering, (The Installment Trigger Date). The installment payments are to be made onthe lst and 15th calendar day of each month. The amount of each installment is the quotient of the original principal amount divided by the number ofinstallment payments after the Installment Trigger Date and the scheduled Maturity Date on December 7, 2016. The holder of the notes may opt to acceleratetwo installment amounts in an amount up to twice the regular installment amount. The installment payments may be made in cash or in common stock at85% of the average of the five (5) lowest daily Weighted Average Prices (as defined in the December Notes) in the prior fifteen (15) trading days at the optionof the Company. In connection with the sale of the December Notes, the Company also issued to the December Purchasers an aggregate of 900,000 shares of the Company’scommon stock in consideration of each Investor’s execution and delivery of the December Purchase Agreement (the “Commitment Shares”). TheCommitment Shares were offered by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was initially filed with the SEC onApril 24, 2015 and declared effective on May 14, 2015 (File No. 333-203637). As described above, the April Purchasers exchanged the April Convertible Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest into the convertible notes that were issuedon December 8, 2015. (The December Notes). As a result, the Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of the April Convertible Notes of $635,986 whichresulted primarily from the write off of the remaining unamortized note discount and deferred debt issue costs on extinguishment. In order to obtain theirconsent to issue the December Notes on December 8, 2015, and to effect the exchange, the Company issued to each of the April Purchasers additionalDecember Notes with a face value of $500,000. On December 8, 2015, the total outstanding principal amount of these convertible notes was $2,134,850. OnDecember 28, 2015, the note holders accelerated installment repayments in an aggregate amount of $350,000 which the Company satisfied by an issuance ofcommon stock as a result of a waiver by the holders which allowed the Company to issue common stock below $0.25. As a result of this repayment, theoutstanding amount of the convertible notes held by the April Purchasers was $1,784,850 on December 31, 2015. The total face amount of the Notes outstanding on December 8, 2015 were $3,644,850. On December 8, 2015 the Company recorded a debt discount of $1,719,700 and a derivative liability of $912,330. The debt discount is attributable to the value of the separately accounted for conversion feature and common stock issued in connection with the sale of theNotes. The embedded conversion feature derivatives relate to the conversion option, the installment payments and the accelerated installment option of theNotes. The embedded derivatives were evaluated under FASB ASC Topic 815-15, were bifurcated from the debt host, and were classified as liabilities in theconsolidated balance sheet. The debt discount is amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Notes. For the year ended December 31,2015, the Company recorded a total of $1,093,371 of debt discount amortization, which was recorded as an interest expense in the consolidated statement ofoperations. Of this amount, $ 109,535 related to the December Notes. During December 2015, the holders of the Notes accelerated $350,000 in installments in exchange for common stock as a result of a waiver by the holderswhich allowed the Company to issue common stock below $0.25. At December 31, 2015, the balance on the Notes outstanding was $3,294,850. November 2015, Term Note On November 25, 2015, the Company issued the Term Note with a principal amount of $200,000 to an accredited purchaser (the “November Purchaser”). TheTerm Note was scheduled to mature on December 15, 2015. The interest rate was 12% per annum with a minimum guaranteed interest of $10,000. TheNovember Purchaser converted the entire principal amount into the December Offering described below. July 2015 Convertible Note On July 27, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with an accredited investor pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of$222,222 in principal amount of the 8% Convertible Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000. The Company received net proceeds of $200,000from the sale of the 8% Convertible Notes. The 8% Convertible Notes matured on September 11, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), less any amounts converted orredeemed prior to the Maturity Date. The 8% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, subject to increase to the lesser of 24% per annum orthe maximum rate permitted under applicable law upon the occurrence of certain events of default. The 8% Convertible Notes were convertible at any time,in whole or in part, at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $3.50 per share, which was subject to adjustment forstock dividends, stock splits, combinations or similar events. The Company was able to prepay in cash any portion of the principal amount of the 8%Convertible Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest. If such prepayment was made within sixty (60) days after the issuance date of the 8% Convertible Notes, the Company would pay an amount in cash equal to109% of the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest; thereafter, if such prepayment was made, the Company would pay anamount in cash equal to 114% of the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest. In the event the Company effects a registeredoffering either utilizing Form S-1 or Form S-3 (a “Registered Offering”), the Holder would have the right to convert the entire amount of the purchase priceinto such Registered Offering. On August 4, 2015, the Company closed a Registered Offering and the holder of the 8% Convertible Notes elected to convertthe entire purchase price amount into common shares. The conversion price used to convert the entire purchase price into common stock was equivalent tothe equity offering price of $1.75 on August 4, 2015 and not the conversion price of $3.50 stipulated in the securities purchase agreement. As a result of thechange in the conversion price, the Company recorded additional inducement expense of $100,000 in three months ended September 30, 2015. F-12 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE (CONTINUED) April 2015 Private Placement On April 24, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “April Purchase Agreement”) with a group of accredited investors (the“April Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company sold to such purchasers an aggregate of $1,575,000 principal amount of secured convertible notes (the“Convertible Notes”), a Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Class A Warrant”) to purchase up to 468,749 shares of the Company’s common stockand a Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Class B Warrant,” and together with the Class A Warrant, the “April Warrants”) to purchase up to468,749 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Convertible Notes bear interest at 6% per annum and are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, atthe option of the holders into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.52 per share. The April Warrants are exercisable beginning six (6) monthsafter issuance through the fifth (5th) anniversary of such initial exercisability date. The Class A Warrant has an initial exercise price equal to $3.02 per shareand the Class B Warrant has an initial exercise price equal to $5.00 per share. The Company received cash proceeds of $1,481,500 from the issuance of theConvertible Notes after deducting debt issuance costs of $93,500. The Company recorded a debt discount of $1,575,000 related to the sale of the Convertible Notes and the April Warrants. The debt discount reflects theunderlying fair value of the April Warrants of approximately $860,000 on the date of the transaction and a beneficial conversion charge of approximately$715,000. During the period April 23, 2015 through December 8, 2015, the Company amortized $983,836 of the debt discount as a component of interestexpense in the accompanying statements of operations. In connection with the sale of the Convertible Notes and April Warrants, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, dated April 24, 2015 (the“April Registration Rights Agreement”), with the April Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company agreed to register the shares of common stock underlyingthe Convertible Notes and Warrants on a Form S-3 registration statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission within ten (10) businessdays after the date of the issuance of the Convertible Notes and April Warrants (the “April Filing Date”) and to cause the April Registration Statement to bedeclared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) within ninety (90) days following the April Filing Date. If certain of itsobligations under the April Registration Rights Agreement are not met, the Company is required to pay partial liquidated damages to each April Purchaser.On May 8, 2015, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC to register the shares issuable upon the conversion of the ConvertibleNotes, the related accrued interest and the exercise of the April Warrants. Such registration statement was declared effective with the SEC on May 14, 2015. In connection with the sale of the Convertible Notes and the April Warrants, the Company entered into a security agreement, dated April 24, 2015 (the “AprilSecurity Agreement”), between the Company, 3D-ID and the collateral agent thereto. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the April Purchasers were granted asecurity interest in certain personal property of the Company and 3D-ID to secure the payment and performance of all obligations of the Company and 3D-IDunder the Convertible Notes, April Warrants, April Purchase Agreement, April Registration Rights Agreement and April Security Agreement. In addition, inconnection with the Security Agreement, 3D-ID executed a subsidiary guaranty, pursuant to which it agreed to guarantee and act as surety for payment of theConvertible Notes and other obligations of the Company under the April Warrants, April Purchase Agreement, April Registration Rights Agreement and AprilSecurity Agreement. As described above, the April Purchasers exchanged the April Convertible Notes into the convertible notes that were issued on December 8, 2015. As a result,the Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of the April Convertible Notes of $635,986 which resulted primarily from the write off of the remainingunamortized note discount and deferred debt issue costs on extinguishment. In order to obtain their consent to issue the December Notes on December 8,2015, and to effect the exchange, the Company issued to each of the April Purchasers additional December Notes with a face value of $500,000. OnDecember 8, 2015, the total outstanding principal amount of these convertible notes was $2,134,850. On December 28, 2015, the note holders acceleratedinstallment repayments in an aggregate amount of $350,000 which the Company satisfied by an issuance of common stock as a result of a waiver by theholders which allowed the Company to issue common stock below $0.25. As a result of this repayment, the outstanding amount of the convertible notes heldby the April Purchasers was $1,784,850 on December 31, 2015. In exchange for the consents given to the Company by the December Purchasers and the April Purchasers in connection with the consent to the WVHtransaction (described below), the December Notes as defined on page F-12 under December 15 Private Placement, the Exchange Notes, and the AdditionalDecember Notes were amended. One of the significant amendments was as follows: the notes are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the option ofthe holders into shares of common stock at a conversion price the lesser of (a) $0.55 per share and (b) from and after an Event of Default (as defined in theDecember Notes), 85% of the average of the five (5) lowest daily Weighted Average Prices (as defined in the December Notes) in the prior thirty (30) tradingdays, until such Event of Default has been cured.

NOTE 6 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES Fair value of financial instruments is defined as an exit price, which is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of aliability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The degree of judgment utilized in measuring the fair value of assetsand liabilities generally correlates to the level of pricing observability. Financial assets and liabilities with readily available, actively quoted prices or forwhich fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in active markets generally have more pricing observability and require less judgment inmeasuring fair value. Conversely, financial assets and liabilities that are rarely traded or not quoted have less price observability and are generally measuredat fair value using valuation models that require more judgment. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment,the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency of the asset, liability or market and the nature of the asset or liability. The Company hascategorized its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy. The conversion features embedded within the Company’s convertible notes payable issued in connection with December 8, 2015 private placement (asdefined in Note 5) did not have fixed settlement provisions on the date they were initially issued because the conversion price could be lowered if certainprovisions included in the note agreement occurs before conversion. During 2015, the derivative liabilities were valued using the Monte Carlo simulation model and the following weighted average assumptions on thefollowing dates: December 31, December 8, 2015 2015 Embedded Conversion Feature Liability: Risk-free interest rate .62% .76%Expected volatility 100.00% 90.00%Expected life (in years) .92 1.00 Expected dividend yield - - Face Value of convertible notes 3,294,850 3,644,850 Fair value $420,360 $912,330 The conversion feature embedded within the Company’s warrants issued in connection with the January Offering (as defined in Note 8) did not have fixedsettlement provisions on the date they were initially issued because the exercise prices could have been lowered if the Company issued securities at a lowerprice before exercise. F-14 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 6 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES (CONTINUED) During 2014, the derivative liabilities were valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the following weighted average assumptions on thefollowing dates: February 21,2014 February 18,2014 January 13,2014 Embedded Conversion Feature and Warrant Liability: Risk-free interest rate 1.52% .10% 1.60%Expected volatility 105.36% 105.36% 123.54%Expected life (in years) 4.88 .75 5.00 Expected dividend yield - - - Number of shares 1,391,539 55,497 941,539 Fair value $4,589,734 $98,722 $3,450,976 During 2013, the derivative liabilities were valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the following weighted average assumptions on thefollowing dates: The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve. Since the Company’s stock has not been publicly traded for a sufficientlylong period of time, the Company is utilizing an expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, equivalent tothe expected life of the instrument being valued, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The expected life of the conversion feature wasdetermined by the maturity date of the Note and the expected life of the warrants was determined by their expiration dates. The expected dividend yield wasbased upon the fact that the Company has not historically paid dividends on its common stock, and does not expect to pay dividends on its common stock inthe future. Fair Value Measurement Valuation HierarchyASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value.This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets orliabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, eitherdirectly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs basedon the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy isdetermined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company had no liabilities carried at fair value that weremeasured on a recurring basis at December 31, 2014. The following table provides the liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2015: Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2015 Total Carrying Value at December 31,2015 Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) Significant other observable inputs (Level 2) Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) Derivative liabilities $420,360 $- $- $420,360 F-15 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 6 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES (CONTINUED) The carrying amounts of cash, inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.The Company’s other financial instruments include its convertible notes payable obligations. The carrying value of these instruments approximate fair value,as they bear terms and conditions comparable to market, for obligations with similar terms and maturities. The Company measures the fair value of financialassets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or mostadvantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company maximizes theuse of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Level 3 liabilities are valued using unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of thederivative liabilities. For fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s accounting department, who reportsto the Principal Financial Officer, determines its valuation policies and procedures. The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s accounting department and are approved by the PrincipalFinancial Officer. Level 3 Valuation TechniquesLevel 3 financial liabilities consist of the conversion feature liability and common stock purchase warrants for which there are no current market for thesesecurities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate. A significant decrease in thevolatility or a significant decrease in the Company’s stock price, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. During December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no transfers in or out of level 3 from other levels in the fair value hierarchy. The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of our Level 3 financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis: For the yearendedDecember 31,2015 For the yearended December 31,2014 Beginning liability balance $- $1,650,243 Recognition of derivative value in equity - 3,450,976 Recognition of conversion feature liability 912,330 - Net unrealized gain on derivative liabilities in equity - (392,545)Net realized gain on conversion feature liabilities (47,242) - Net unrealized gain on conversion feature liabilities (444,728) (20,218)Adjustment to additional paid-in capital upon conversion and modification - (4,688,456)Ending balance $420,360 $- The Company held no Level 3 financial instruments at December 31, 2014.

F-22 Nxt-ID, Inc. and SubsidiaryNOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES As of December 31, 2015, the Company had US federal and state net operating loss (“NOLs”) carryovers of $16,475,612 and $12,522,480, respectively,available to offset future taxable income, which expire beginning in 2033. In addition, the Company had tax credit carryforwards of $177,909 at December31, 2015 that will be available to reduce future tax liabilities. The tax credit carryforwards will begin to expire beginning in 2033. In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, deductibility of the Company’s NOLs may be subject to an annual limitation in the event of achange of control. The Company has determined that a change of control has not occurred as of December 31, 2015 and therefore none of the NOLs arelimited under Section 382. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented. The Company has filed all of itstax returns for all prior periods through December 31, 2015. As a result, the Company’s net operating loss carryovers will now be available to offset any futuretaxable income. The income tax provision consists of the following: December 31, 2015 2014 Current Federal $- $- State 4,307 843 4,307 843 Deferred Federal (3,543,673) (1,744,445)State (362,722) (314,699) (3,906,395) (2,059,144)Change in valuation allowance 3,906,395 2,059,144 Total income tax provision $4,307 $843 A reconciliation of the effective income tax rate and the statutory federal income tax rate is as follows: December 31, 2015 2014 U.S. federal statutory rate 34.00% 34.00%State income tax rate, net of federal benefit 1.81 2.93 Inducement expenses (2.33) (10.63)Other permanent differences (3.63) 2.79 Less: valuation allowance (29.88) (29.10)Provision for income taxes (.03)% (.01)% In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assetswill not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in whichtemporary differences representing net future deductible amounts became deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities,projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of the information available, Managementbelieves that significant uncertainties exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuationallowance. For the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the change in valuation allowance was $3,906,395 and $2,059,144.
