ITEM 1. BUSINESS Our Business ZAGG Inc (“we,” “us,” “our,” “ZAGG,” or “the Company”) is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, and has an international office located in Shannon, Ireland. The Company designs, produces, and distributes professional and premium creative product solutions such as invisibleSHIELD® screen protection, keyboards for tablet computers or mobile devices, keyboard cases, earbuds, portable power, cables, cases, Bluetooth speakers, and mobile device cleaning accessories for mobile devices under the family of ZAGG and invisibleSHIELD brands. In addition, the Company designs, produces, and distributes earbuds, headphones, Bluetooth speakers, Near-Field Audio amplifying speakers, cases, and cables for mobile devices under the family of iFrogz brands in the fashion and youth oriented lifestyle sector. We maintain our headquarters at 3855 South 500 West, Suites B, C, D, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R and S, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84115. The telephone number of the Company is 801-263-0699. Our website addresses are www.zagg.com and www.ifrogz.com . Information contained on, or accessible through, our websites is not a part of, and is not incorporated by reference into this report. Family of ZAGG Branded Products ZAGG invisibleSHIELD Products The invisibleSHIELD is made from a protective film covering that was developed originally to protect the leading edges of rotary blades of military helicopters. We determined that a variation of this film product could be configured to fit onto the surface of electronic devices and marketed to consumers for use in protecting such devices from every day wear and tear, including scratches, scrapes, dings, and other surface blemishes. The film also permits touch sensitivity, meaning its application to a device does not inhibit the device’s touch screen sensitivity. The invisibleSHIELD film material is highly reliable and durable because it was originally developed for use in a high friction, high velocity environment within the military aerospace industry. The film provides long lasting protection for the surface of electronic devices subject to normal wear and tear. The film has a polyurethane base with properties that have enabled us to develop a very thin, pliable, flexible, and durable clear plastic that adheres to the surface and shape of the object to which it is applied. Table of Contents 1  The invisibleSHIELD is designed specifically for each unique smartphone, cell phone, tablet computer, MP3 player, laptop, digital camera, watch face, GPS system, gaming device, and other mobile device. The product is “cut” to fit specific devices and for the original invisibleSHIELD formulation, is packaged together with a moisture activating solution that makes the invisibleSHIELD adhere to the surface of the device, literally “like a second skin,” and virtually invisible to the eye. The patented invisibleSHIELD was the first scratch protection solution of its kind on the market. The invisibleSHIELD is not ornamental, but rather provides semi-permanent barrier to preserve the brand new look of the surface of the electronic device to which it is applied. In early 2010, we introduced the invisibleSHIELD DRY through retail partners, which is a protective film made from the same material as the original invisibleSHIELD, and engineered to be clearer, smoother to the touch, and applied without the need of the moisture activating solution. In the beginning of 2011, we added the invisibleSHIELD Smudge-Proof to our line, which also incorporates the invisibleSHIELD film with added features that eliminate smudges, fingerprints, and glare from the device display. In January 2012, we introduced the invisibleSHIELD HD, a new premium version of the invisibleSHIELD that offers industry-leading clarity and finish. In September 2012, the Company introduced a new version of the invisibleSHIELD line, the invisibleSHIELD EXTREME. The invisibleSHIELD EXTREME differs from other products in the invisibleSHIELD portfolio by offering advanced shock absorption and superior break protection. By installing the EXTREME on a compatible mobile device, consumers can worry less about broken screens as a result of dropping their smartphone, tablet, or other device. Currently, ZAGG offers over 6,000 precision, pre-cut invisibleSHIELD designs with a lifetime replacement warranty through online channels, big-box retailers, electronics specialty stores, resellers, college bookstores, independent Mac stores, and mall kiosks. We plan to continue to innovate our array of invisibleSHIELD products in future periods. ZAGGaudio ZAGGaudio electronics accessories and products were first released in late 2008, and continue to focus on innovation and superior value. The first product within ZAGGaudio was the award winning ZAGGsmartbuds line. On January 12, 2010, we were awarded patent number US D 607,875 by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, covering design elements of ZAGGsmartbuds in-ear headphones. The ZAGGaudio product offering also features the premium ZR-SIX earbuds, which offer passive noise cancellation and a robust sound. During 2013, the Company launched the Origin desktop speaker, which is an innovative 2-in-1 desktop and portable Bluetooth® speaker system, the first of its kind on the market. The small, portable speaker provides users with crisp, high fidelity sound on the go and seamlessly transfers music to the large desktop speaker when docked. The combination of the two speakers produces big, room-filling sound with prominent bass. The small portable speaker also receives a charge to its battery when docked in the desktop speaker. Powerful audio drivers let listeners turn up the volume as loud as they like without losing sound clarity or quality. ZAGG Power Products In early 2009, we introduced the original ZAGGsparq, a small, powerful, portable battery that can recharge a power-hungry smartphone up to four times before the ZAGGsparq itself needs to be recharged. Featuring a 6000ma lithium polymer cell, the ZAGGsparq plugs into a wall outlet and provides two USB ports for charging mobile devices. The ZAGGsparq is compatible with any USB-charged device, including smartphones, tablets, handheld gaming systems, and digital cameras. In September 2012, the Company released a complete lineup of ZAGGsparq products to provide reliable power solutions for jetsetters, students, professionals and other consumers who are always on the go. Available in three size and charging options, the new family includes the ZAGGsparq 1220, ZAGGsparq 3100, and ZAGGsparq 6000. ZAGGsparq portable batteries are designed to charge any device that utilizes a USB, including smartphones, tablets, handheld gaming systems, and digital cameras. Different from other portable batteries on the market, the ZAGGsparq family has been constructed with built-in prongs that allow the device to double as a wall charger, eliminating the need for an extra power adapter. All three new models contain Lithium Polymer batteries and are polycarbonate to protect the device from wear and tear. In addition, the ZAGGsparq 3100 and 6000 feature the Company's Hypercharge Technolog, which enables a mobile device to receive a full charge up to four times faster than when utilizing a standard USB charger. Table of Contents 2  ZAGG Keyboard Products We introduced the ZAGGmate in November 2010. The ZAGGmate, made from aircraft-grade aluminum, was a protective and functional companion to the Apple iPad, iPad 2, iPad 3, and iPad 4, which accentuated both the appearance and utility of Apple's innovative devices. The ZAGGmate line featured two models, one with a simple, innovative stand and built-in wireless Bluetooth® keyboard that allowed for fast, responsive typing, and interaction with the iPad's features. The second model replaced the keyboard with a more versatile stand that provided multiple angles for use. The ZAGGmate was the recipient of several prestigious industry awards, including the Macworld Expo 2011 Best of Show and recognition as a CES Innovations Design and Engineering Honoree. On April 7, 2011, we partnered with Logitech on the ZAGGmate product and renamed it the Logitech Keyboard Case by ZAGG. Under the partnership with Logitech, we received royalty payments for all units sold by Logitech. On May 9, 2012, we were awarded patent number US D 659,139 by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, covering design elements of the ZAGGmate case and keyboard accessory for tablets. As a follow-up to the ZAGGmate, we launched the ZAGGfolio in July 2011. The ZAGGfolio is a stylish and functional case for the iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, Samsung Galaxy Tablet, and Galaxy Tablet 2.0 that not only offers full protection, but increases productivity through a removable Bluetooth keyboard. Operating with Bluetooth 3.0, the integrated battery is designed to last for months between charges. A true 3-in-1 solution with a keyboard, stand and full protective cover, the patent-pending ZAGGfolio is the winner of multiple awards including the 2012 CES Innovations Design and Engineering Showcase Honors. In fall of 2011, we expanded the ZAGGfolio family to include 11 different colors, textures and patterns, including genuine leather. In November 2012, the ZAGGfolio was named a gold winner of the Consumer Product of the Year at the Best in Biz Awards 2012. In November 2011, ZAGG launched the ZAGGkeys FLEX, a portable Bluetooth keyboard and stand. As implied by its name, the FLEX offers flexible function for the two most popular tablet and smartphone operating systems; a switch on the keyboard toggles between the Apple iOS and Android®. The ZAGGkeys FLEX utilizes the same keyboard layout as our award-winning Logitech Keyboard Case by ZAGG and ZAGGfolio, ensuring a true typing experience. The ZAGGkeys FLEX includes a unique keyboard cover that easily converts into a stable stand compatible with nearly any tablet or smartphone. The ZAGGkeys FLEX was named an honoree at the 2012 CES Innovations Design and Engineering Showcase. In August 2012, ZAGG introduced the ZAGGkeys PRO and ZAGGkeys PRO Plus at IFA 2012 in Berlin, Germany. The ZAGGkeys Pro and ZAGGkeys Pro Plus are ultra-thin Bluetooth keyboard accessories that accentuate the utility and convenience of the Apple iPad. Different from the original ZAGGkeys accessory, the ZAGGkeys PRO and PRO Plus utilize an innovative magnetic closure to secure the iPad, and protect the screen from scratches and smudges. The patented keyboard design of both new products provides a natural typing experience in a compact layout, with dedicated function keys to operate specific iPad features. In addition, the ZAGGkeys PRO Plus features optional backlighting for full keyboard use without the need for another light. In October 2012, we launched the ZAGGkeys MINI 7, which features a durable folio designed specifically around the iPad mini and highlighted with ZAGG's award-winning keyboard technology. The Bluetooth 3.0 keyboard of the ZAGGkeys MINI 7 is custom designed to fit the iPad mini, providing a feature-rich keyboard while maintaining the small, compact size. The ZAGGkeys Mini 7 also features a built-in stand to hold the tablet at an ideal viewing angle and special function keys to operate essential iPad mini features directly from the keyboard. In November 2012, ZAGG debuted the ZAGGkeys PROfolio and ZAGGkeys PROfolio + . The ZAGGkeys PROfolio and PROfolio+ offer a complete mobile experience for the iPad 2, iPad 3, or iPad 4. The durable exterior provides a stylish case that protects both the device and the keyboard from dings and scratches. A clever magnetic closure secures the iPad to the ZAGGkeys PROfolio and PROfolio+, which features the same innovative keyboard technology, including the special function keys and carefully engineered spacing as ZAGG’s traditional keyboard tablet. In addition, the ZAGGkeys PROfolio+ features optional backlighting for full keyboard use without the need for another light. Three levels of backlighting are available in seven colors: blue, dark blue, green, purple, red, yellow and white. In June 2013, ZAGG introduced the ZAGGkeys Universal, which is a remarkably thin full size keyboard compatible with virtually any mobile operating system. It comes in a protective case that doubles as a stand, allowing it to work with almost any tablet or smartphone. Also featuring an innovative, ergonomic curved design with island-style keys, similar to those on traditional keyboards, the ZAGGkeys Universal provides maximum comfort with ample finger room, even during marathon typing sessions. The Universal's rechargeable battery is designed to last for up to three months of regular use. In October 2013, ZAGG introduced the ZAGGkeys Folio and ZAGGkeys Cover for the iPad Air tablet. The ZAGGkeys Folio and ZAGGkeys Cover are ultra-thin Bluetooth® keyboards featuring a patent-pending pivoting hinge that allows users to place the iPad Air at virtually any viewing angle, just like a laptop screen. Both keyboards feature backlit keys to support typing in low light areas, and a powerful battery to keep the tablet running for up to three months. When not in use for typing, the Cover locks behind the iPad Air to offer a pure reading and playing mode. The Folio offers full device coverage in attractive styling. ZAGG Gaming During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company made a key brand strategy decision to place greater emphasis on the promotion of the ZAGG and invisibleSHIELD brands, particularly with the decision to brand the line of gaming controllers as ZAGG products instead of under the iFrogz brand as was previously communicated. Table of Contents 3  Based on that decision, the Company will introduce the ZAGG Bluetooth® gaming controller (previously slated as the iFrogz Caliber Advantage gaming controller). The ZAGG Game Controller is intended to provide gamers with an enhanced console-style gaming experience that attaches directly to their Apple iPhone 5s or 5c, or iPod touch 5 th generation. The ZAGG Game Controller controls the action via the device's Bluetooth® connection, providing the lightning-fast response needed for today's mobile gaming. The dual slide-out analog controls of the gaming handset feature tactile, responsive keys, for a tight and accurate gaming experience. The ZAGG Game Controller is also expected to feature an integrated lithium polymer battery offering 10-12 hours of continuous play without the need for a charge. The ZAGG Game Controller utilizes technology that is specifically optimized for games developed by industry leaders such as Epic Games and Epic's ChAIR Entertainment for the ultimate gaming experience. It is expected the ZAGG Game Controller will be available in the second half of 2014. ZAGG Cases During the fourth quarter of 2013, the company launched the Arsenal, a premium rugged case that keeps smartphones clean and protected. Designed with a soft, cushioned interior and rigid outer shell, the Arsenal is resistant to liquids, drops, dust, and more, without adding bulk. The Arsenal is one of the thinnest rugged cases available and features the world-class invisibleSHIELD EXTREME screen protector, designed for premium shock resistance, break protection, and touchscreen sensitivity. Family of iFrogz Branded Products iFrogz Cases iFrogz began in 2006 by initially creating protective cases for Apple iPods with a unique combination of fashion and quality that was received well by the marketplace. Initially, all sales were online. However, in early 2007, iFrogz began distributing its case products through large retailers and began more firmly establishing itself as a youth and fashion-oriented brand. Since 2007, the iFrogz case offerings have expanded to include a wide array of sleek and stylish cases for each new generation of Apple iPod, iPhone, iPad, and Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets. iFrogz Audio In the summer of 2007, the Company released its first line of audio products under the EarPollution brand. The eclectic selection of EarPollution earbuds and headphones specifically targets a younger audience, but still appeals to a wide demographic of consumers. Since the initial launch of the EarPollution audio products, the Company has continued to innovate and expanded its headphone and earbud product lines to include a large number of product offerings for all ages under both the iFrogz and EarPollution brands. In February 2012, ZAGG launched the iFrogz Boost speaker under the iFrogz brand. The iFrogz Boost speaker allows users to amplify their device's sound by simply placing their smartphone, or other device equipped with an external speaker, on top of the Boost. The Boost features patent-pending audio technology to sync the external audio signal and then amplify the sound through two high-quality 2W x 2RMS speakers. No wires, cords, Bluetooth or pairing configuration is needed. In October 2012, ZAGG introduced the Boost Plus under the iFrogz brand, a new iteration of its portable, external wireless speaker for smartphones and MP3 players. The Boost Plus allows consumers to fill living spaces and outdoor entertainment areas with music by simply placing a sound-producing mobile device on top of the speaker. Powered by Near-Field Audio Technology, the Boost Plus picks up the audio from a consumer's mobile device and pumps it out of three high-quality 2W x 2RMS speakers, eliminating the need for wires, cords or pairing configurations. The Boost Plus was an Innovations Design and Engineering Awards Honoree at the 2013 International Consumer Electronics Show. In November 2012, ZAGG introduced the iFrogz Animatone line of accessories designed for young children. The initial iFrogz Animatone line offering includes headphones and earbuds with playful styling and audio limiting to protect developing ears. The iFrogz Animatone line features child-friendly designs, and animal-inspired images in a variety of bright colors including blue, red and green. Both versions of these first iFrogz Animatone audio accessories feature built-in volume boundaries to prevent the sound from being turned louder than 85 decibels, which is equivalent to the level of an average telephone dial tone. In July 2013, ZAGG introduced the iFrogz Coda Forte wireless headphones. Lightweight and comfortable, the Coda Forte combines the latest Bluetooth wireless technology with powerful drivers for seamless, high-fidelity audio quality. The integrated rechargeable batteries of the Coda Forte deliver 10-12 hours of continuous audio on a single charge. Built-in controls provide volume and track adjustment, as well as one-touch acceptance of incoming calls using a built-in microphone. Coda Forte headphones are available in black, white, blue, and pink. ZAGG continues to innovate its iFrogz audio and case product lines allowing it to remain ahead of the curve in the electronic device accessory fashion market. Table of Contents 4  2014 International Consumer Electronics Show The annual International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) provides the Company the opportunity to introduce new creative product solutions to the market. At the 2014 CES, the Company introduced a number of new invisibleSHIELD, keyboard, Bluetooth speaker, power, case, earbud, and headphone products under the ZAGG, invisibleSHIELD, and iFrogz brands. The Company considers the following to be new key product offerings: Strategy At ZAGG, our focus is to (1) design creative product solutions for users of mobile devices, (2) sell these products to end-users through global distribution partners and online, and (3) to become the preferred brand through the innovation and quality of our products, providing excellent customer service, and focusing on the end-users’ knowledge and experience with our products. We focus our corporate, team, and individual goals to accomplish this overall corporate strategy. We plan to continue to expand our product offerings, including entering new product categories, and entering new domestic and global markets that we believe will be consistent with our overall corporate strategy. Design and Packaging We design the invisibleSHIELD product for application on thousands of specific electronic devices. Our logistics partners acquire precision-cut raw materials from exclusive third-party suppliers. These precision-cut invisibleSHIELDs are then packaged with an installation kit consisting of a moisture adhesive-activating solution for the original formulation, a squeegee, and instructions for application on specific electronic devices. We have established relationships with package assembly, shipping, and logistics companies worldwide that we expect will allow us to expand our invisibleSHIELD production and shipping capacity as we continue to grow. Table of Contents ● invisibleSHIELD On Demand – The revolutionary invisibleSHIELD On Demand program offers retailers the ability to instantly produce a variety of screen protection films for virtually any device.

In addition, retailers will be able to focus their shelf inventory on their best-selling invisibleSHIELDs and simply create others as needed.

The ZAGG Cover-Fit launched at retailers and on ZAGG.com at the same time as the Samsung Galaxy NotePRO and TabPRO in the first quarter of 2014. ● iFrogz Tadpole – At the size of an average keyless entry remote, the iFrogz Tadpole Bluetooth speaker delivers big sound from a tiny package and brings the party where no speaker has gone before.

The iFrogz GoLite features a 2,600 mAh battery with enough punch to fully charge virtually any smartphone. Its slim, elegant design includes a handy flashlight and fits conveniently in any purse or bag for easy power on the go. 5  We also custom design each invisibleSHIELD cut for the specific electronic device and currently have over 6,000 unique designs. The cut designs are developed internally and are owned exclusively by us. We do not own the patent for the base materials, which is held by our exclusive supplier. Our supplier has contractually agreed to not sell the base materials to any of our competitors. We believe that our relationship with the manufacturer of the raw material is on excellent terms and anticipate no interruption in our ability to acquire adequate supplies of raw materials and produce products. For all ZAGG products, we design the exterior packaging to ensure it is consistent with the overall marketing strategy and is consistent with the desires of our major retailer partners. We have designed the hard plastic and cardboard box packaging to be informative and attractive for point-of-sale displays. We outsource the production of packaging to various independent third parties. We manufacture our other mobile device accessories (keyboards, audio products, cases, power solutions, and other accessories) using third party contract manufacturers located primarily in Asia. We have established relationships with third-party manufacturers, package assembly, warehousing, shipping, and logistics companies that allow us to expand our accessories production and shipping capacity as we continue to grow. Market for Products The portable electronic device market, notably handheld devices, is continuing to see advancements in performance and functionality in existing models. Furthermore, the market is expanding as evidenced by continued innovative new product releases, particularly in tablets and smartphones. Correspondingly, the aesthetics of such devices are increasingly important as buyers typically consider the look and feel of such devices, as much as performance, in making their purchasing decisions. As a result, an industry and significant market has emerged for (1) protecting portable electronic devices, notably the “high end” tablet and smartphone devices, and (2) enhancing the consumer experience with accessories for mobile electronic devices. We sell each of our product lines to consumers of electronic household and hand-held devices directly via our websites and other key online e-tailers, and through our distributors and retail partners. We sell a significant amount of product for use on Apple’s iPad, iPhone, and iPod devices and on Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones and tablets, though we have experienced continued diversification as other manufacturers’ presence in the market has increased. Market sources indicate that the tablet, smartphone, and overall mobile device market will continue to increase in the coming years. As this market continues to expand, ZAGG is positioned to grow as we execute our corporate strategy. In addition to Apple and Samsung, the handheld electronics industry has continued to market and develop devices with touch screen interfaces, and several major manufacturers, including Motorola, Microsoft, Dell, Lenovo, Blackberry and HTC continue to release innovative products each year. The invisibleSHIELD is the ideal device protection offering for all types of gadgets, in particular touch-screen devices, as it does not interfere with the functionality of the device while offering complete scratchproof protection. Our keyboard product line is ideal for tablet and smartphone users as the product line includes keyboards that are both device specific and device agnostic, which are compatible with many tablet and smart phone devices. In addition our ZAGGaudio and iFrogz Audio product lines offer excellent enhancement to any mobile device. We will continue to focus our marketing and innovation efforts around these types of product solutions that protect and enhance mobile devices. On April 7, 2011, we partnered with Logitech on the ZAGGmate product and renamed it the Logitech Keyboard Case by ZAGG. Under the partnership with Logitech, we received a royalty payment for all units sold. Currently, we have not entered into any similar arrangements for any other products. As of the date of this report, we have not partnered with any manufacturers of electronic devices to bundle our products with such devices on initial sale, or to include as part of the device, the application of our products. In the future, we may seek such an arrangement or an alternative co-marketing agreement, but we have not entered into definitive negotiations for such an arrangement at this time. Market Segments With over 6,000 invisibleSHIELD products/product configurations available, we have a protective covering for all major market segments of handheld electronic devices, including: smart phones and cell phones, tablets, MP3 players, notebook computers, laptops, gaming devices, GPS devices, watch faces, and similar devices and surfaces. We intend to continue to configure the invisibleSHIELD product for use in newly developed consumer devices. The invisibleSHIELD can be quickly configured, packaged, and shipped to customers for new devices as they enter the consumer marketplace, making the invisibleSHIELD available for purchase at the time of or within days of the launch of new electronic devices. In addition, the release of the invisibleSHIELD On Demand in 2014 will make it possible for retailers to have an invisibleSHIELD available on the launch date for all device releases. Table of Contents 6  One of the fastest growing market segments is the tablet and smartphone segment. Most often, smartphone and tablet buyers are drawn to these devices by their elegant design, as well as their easy-to-use functionality. However, everyday use often mars the finish of the devices’ screen and other areas that receive wear and tear. The invisibleSHIELD and iFrogz cases offer excellent device protection, while not impeding the form or functionality of the smart phones and tablets, and do not inhibit the touch sensitivity for smartphones and tablets with touch screen technology. Further, our keyboard line provides a professional and innovative solution to effectively interact with tablets and smartphones. As sales of electronics continue to grow, we anticipate that sales of our complementary accessory products will continue to grow, as well. Three of the largest areas of our market opportunities relate to sales of tablets, smart phones, and MP3 players. According to public filings, over 74.2 million iPads, 153.4 million iPhones, and 29.7 million iPods were sold by Apple during 2013. In addition, industry sources project that the worldwide global accessories market will increase from an estimated $44.0 billion revenue industry during 2013 to an estimated $60.0 billion industry in 2016. Management believes that ZAGG is positioned to serve market needs within this industry with our multiple products lines that include device protection, keyboards and keyboard cases, audio, mobile power, and protective cases. Marketing and Distribution Domestically, we sell our products on our websites, to big box electronics retailers, to distributors, and to franchisees that own and operate kiosks and ZAGG branded stores in shopping malls and retail centers. In addition, our products are available for sale worldwide via our websites and through retailers and distributers we have partnered with from our subsidiary in Shannon, Ireland. Currently we advertise our products primarily on the Internet, through magazine ads, through print advertisements in conjunction with our retail partners, and through point of sale displays at retail locations. We intend to strategically expand our advertising activities in 2014, particularly through interactive displays within retailers. We are also seeking to create strategic partnerships with makers of cellular phone devices, electronic accessories, and mobile content providers to enhance our product offerings. Indirect Channels We sell our products through indirect channels including big box retailers, domestic and international distributors, independent Apple retailers, university bookstores, and small independently owned consumer electronics stores. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we sold approximately $186.5 million of product through these indirect channels, or approximately 85% of our overall net sales for 2013. We require indirect channel partners to enter into a reseller agreement with us. We continue to sell directly to retailers or through distributors to market and place our products for sale in the United States and abroad. We have entered into distribution agreements with partners throughout the world for the marketing, distribution and sale of our products. Website Sales We sell our products worldwide directly to consumers on our websites at www.ZAGG.com and www.iFrogz.com . For the year ended December 31, 2013, we sold approximately $19.2 million of product on our website, or approximately 9% of our overall net sales for 2013. The URLs are included here as inactive textual references. Information contained on, or accessible through, our websites are not part of, and are not incorporated by reference into, this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Mall Kiosk Vendors We sell our products to franchisees that operate kiosks and ZAGG branded stores in shopping malls and retail centers. We enter into agreements with these franchisees who then purchase the products and resell them to consumers. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we sold approximately $13.7 million of product, or approximately 6% of our overall net sales for 2013, through our corporate owned mall carts and to franchisees. Third party franchisees are required to enter into a standard franchise agreement with us wherein we charge an up-front fee that is recognized into revenue over the life of the license. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we recognized $0.2 million in net sales related to these agreements. Company Organization Our operations are divided into two operating groups: ZAGG Domestic, which serves customers in the United States and Canada, and ZAGG International, which serves customers throughout the rest of the world. Both ZAGG Domestic and ZAGG International are organized with the following functional departments: sales, marketing, eCommerce, operations, product development and management, and general and administration functions. Although ZAGG Domestic and ZAGG International operated in different locations, the product offerings are the same, as are the manufacturers, distribution channels, and type of customer. These are among the reasons we consider ZAGG Domestic and ZAGG International a single reporting segment under US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). Table of Contents 7  Warranties We offer a lifetime guaranty of the durability of our invisibleSHIELD products. If the invisibleSHIELD is ever scratched or damaged (in the course of normal use), a customer simply needs to return the old product and we will replace it for free. The products to which the invisibleSHIELD is applied typically have relatively short lives, which helps to limit our exposure for warranty claims. For products that contain electronic components, the Company offers a one-year manufacturer’s warranty should the product cease to function properly during the first year. Intellectual Property Rights ZAGG, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, ZAGG Intellectual Property Holding Company, Inc., owns utility and design patents in the U.S. and in various foreign countries which correspond to a number of our products, including patents with claims focused on certain features of ZAGG’s invisibleSHIELD protective films for electronic devices. ZAGG continues to actively pursue further protection for its invisibleSHIELD protective films and associated methods in the United States and in foreign countries, having filed patent applications for (i) both wet and dry application processes for securing protective films to consumer electronic devices; (ii) dry-application protective films; and (iii) on-demand production of electronic device accessories, including films. In addition, ZAGG has filed applications, and in some instances secured patents, for a variety of its protective cases and keyboard products. ZAGG has additional patents pending in the U.S. and internationally for a variety of current and expected products. ZAGG owns more than 6,000 invisibleSHIELD protective film designs for protecting a variety of consumer electronic devices. New designs are routinely added to ZAGG’s portfolio to accommodate the newest electronic devices on the market. Additionally and as described in detail below, ZAGG is the owner of numerous trademarks for use in connection with its goods and services. ZAGG has filed formal applications for a variety of trademarks, and has further secured trademark registrations for many of its trademarks in both the U.S. and in foreign countries. ZAGG has strategically developed relationships and often exclusive agreements with a number of third party vendors and suppliers. ZAGG’s long-standing relationship with its raw material suppliers and its manufacturers expands the scope of potential intellectual property protection available to ZAGG, including development of innovative solutions for protective films. These exclusive relationships also provide ZAGG with a reasonable expectation that it will be able to supply customers with products long into the future. ZAGG regularly files patent and trademark applications to protect its inventions, designs and trademarks. While ZAGG believes that the ownership of intellectual property is important to its business, and that its success is based in part upon the ownership of intellectual property rights, ZAGG’s success is also based upon creative product solutions, establishing the preferred brand among both retailers and consumers, and targeted global distribution.

Employees We have 137 full-time employees and 64 part-time employees (total of 201), including our management team. 186 of our employees are located in the United States and support the operations of ZAGG Domestic, while there are 15 employees located in Ireland to support our ZAGG International operations. No employee is represented by a labor union, and we have never suffered an interruption of business caused by labor disputes. We believe our relationship with our employees is good. Our Corporate History We were formed as a Nevada corporation on April 2, 2004, under the name Amerasia Khan Enterprises Ltd (“AKE”). On February 8, 2007, AKE executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between AKE and its wholly owned subsidiary, SZC Acquisition, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Subsidiary”) on the one hand, and ShieldZone Corporation, a Utah corporation (“ShieldZone”) on the other hand. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, ShieldZone merged with Subsidiary, with ShieldZone surviving the merger and Subsidiary ceasing to exist (the “Merger”). Following the Merger, ShieldZone was reincorporated in Nevada as a subsidiary of AKE. On March 7, 2007, ShieldZone was merged into AKE and AKE changed its name to ZAGG Incorporated. As a result of these transactions, the historical financial statements of ZAGG Incorporated are the historical financial statements of ShieldZone. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. We changed our name from ShieldZone Corporation to ZAGG Incorporated (later to ZAGG Inc) to better position the Company to become a large enterprise in the electronics’ accessories industry through organic growth and targeted acquisitions. The ShieldZone name was very specific to the invisibleSHIELD product line, and although the invisibleSHIELD® is a core product, the name change has enabled us to more easily add new products to our product offerings. During 2011, we changed our name from ZAGG Incorporated to ZAGG Inc. On June 21, 2011, ZAGG acquired iFrogz, which further diversified the existing ZAGG product line, particularly for audio and protective case accessories under the EarPollution and iFrogz brand names. ZAGG will continue to search out complimentary proven products and companies that fit the ZAGG growth strategy. Seasonal Business The Company has historically experienced increased net sales in its fourth fiscal quarter compared to other quarters in its fiscal year due to increased holiday seasonal demand. This historical pattern should not be considered a reliable indicator of the Company’s future sales or financial performance. In addition, the Company has historically been positively impacted near the time of major device launches by Apple and Samsung. We expect major device launches to continue to positively impact our operations during 2014 and beyond. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS Because of the following factors, as well as other factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Risks Related to our Financial Condition If we are unable to maintain our line of credit facility, we could face a deficiency in our short term cash needs that would negatively impact our business. Table of Contents 10  On December 20, 2013, the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (“Amendment”), which modified the original Credit Agreement entered into between the Company and Wells Fargo on December 7, 2012 (“Credit Agreement”). The Amendment retained the $60.0 million revolving line of credit (“Line of Credit”) and extended the maturity date from December 1, 2014 to December 1, 2015. At the time of the Amendment, the $18.0 million outstanding on the original $24.0 million term loan was paid in full utilizing proceeds from the Line of Credit. In addition, the Line of Credit includes a letter of credit sub-feature that allows the Company to issue standby commercial letters of credit against the Line of Credit, not to exceed at any time an aggregate of $5.0 million. As of December 31, 2013, the total balance outstanding on the line of credit was $17.5 million. Attached to the Credit Agreement are a number of financial and non-financial debt covenants. If we are not compliant with the covenants, Wells Fargo may decide to limit our ability to access the Line of Credit. In such event, our short-term cash requirements may exceed available cash on hand resulting in material adverse consequences to our business. The restrictive covenants contained in our Credit Agreement may limit our activities. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the majority of the equity in foreign subsidiaries . Under the Credit Agreement we are subject to specified affirmative covenants customary for loans of this type, including but not limited to the obligations to maintain adequate accounting records in accordance with US GAAP; preserve and maintain all licensees, permits, and other governmental compliance; maintain adequate insurance; ensure facilities are kept in good repair; maintain our principal depository bank account with Wells Fargo; provide various notices to the Wells Fargo; and deliver financial statements to Wells Fargo. We are also subject to certain negative covenants customary for loans of this type, including but not limited to prohibitions against certain mergers and acquisitions, pledging assets collateralized under the Credit Agreement, making financial or other guarantees, certain management and ownership changes, the imposition of additional liens on collateral or other of our assets, and prohibitions against additional indebtedness. Failure to comply with the restrictive covenants in our term loan could accelerate the repayment of any debt outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Additionally, as a result of these restrictive covenants, we may be at a disadvantage compared to our competitors that have greater operating and financing flexibility than we do. Our level of indebtedness reduces our financial flexibility and could impede our ability to operate. The Credit Agreement requires us to pay a variable rate of interest, which will increase or decrease based on variations in LIBOR. Additionally, fluctuations in interest rates can significantly decrease our profits. We do not have any hedge or similar contracts that would protect us against changes in interest rates. The amount of our indebtedness could have important consequences for us, including the following: We may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service and repay our debt and related obligations and have sufficient remaining funds to achieve or sustain profitability in our operations, meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs or compete successfully in our industry, which would have a material adverse effect on our operations. As of December 31, 2013, the variable interest rate on outstanding debt was 1.0%. Risks Related to our Company and Business Because sales of consumer electronic accessories are dependent on new products, product development and consumer acceptance, we could experience sharp decreases in our sales and profit margin if we are unable to continually introduce new products and achieve consumer acceptance. Table of Contents • requiring us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for operations, future business opportunities and other purposes; • limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; • making it more difficult for us to satisfy our debt obligations, as any failure to comply with such obligations, including financial and other restrictive covenants, could result in an event of default under the Credit Agreement, which could lead to, among other things, an acceleration of our indebtedness or foreclosure of the collateral, which could have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition; • limiting our ability to borrow additional funds, or to sell assets to raise funds, if needed, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other purposes; and • increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including changes in interest rates. 11  The consumer and mobile electronics accessory industries are subject to constant and rapidly changing consumer preferences based on performance features and industry trends. We generate all of our sales from our consumer and mobile electronics accessories business. We cannot assure you that we will be able to grow the revenues of our business or maintain profitability. Our consumer accessories business depends, to a large extent, on the introduction and availability of innovative products and technologies. We believe that our future success depends in large part upon our ability to enhance our existing products and to develop, introduce, and market new products and improvements to our existing products. However, if we are not able to continually innovate and introduce new products that achieve consumer acceptance, our sales and profit margins may decline. Our revenues and profitability will depend on our ability to maintain existing and generate additional customers and develop new products. A reduction in demand for our existing products would have a material adverse effect on our business. The sustainability of current levels of our business and the future growth of such revenues, if any, depends on, among other factors: We cannot provide assurance that we will maintain or increase our current level of revenues or profits in future periods. While we are pursuing and will continue to pursue product development opportunities, there can be no assurance that such products will come to fruition or become successful. Furthermore, while a number of those products are being tested, we cannot provide any definite date by which they will be commercially available or financially viable. We may experience operational problems with such products after commercial introduction that could delay or defeat the ability of such products to generate revenue or operating profits. Future operational problems could increase our costs, delay our plans or adversely affect our reputation or our sales of other products which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our success and our ability to satisfy our obligations. We cannot predict which of the many possible future products will meet evolving industry standards and consumer demands. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to adapt to such technological changes, offer such products on a timely basis or establish or maintain a competitive position. Because we face intense competition, including competition from companies with significantly greater resources than ours, if we are unable to compete effectively with these companies, our market share may decline and our business could be harmed. Our market is highly competitive with numerous competitors. Some of our competitors may have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources than we possess, which may afford them competitive advantages over us. As a result, our competitors may introduce products that have advantages over our products in terms of features, functionality, ease of use, and revenue producing potential. They may also have more fully developed sales channels for consumer sales including large retail seller arrangements and international distribution capabilities. In addition, new companies may enter the markets in which we compete, further increasing competition in the consumer electronics accessories industry. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profit margins, loss of market share and an inability to generate cash flows that are sufficient to maintain or expand our development and marketing of new products, which would adversely impact our financial performance. Because we are dependent on third party sources to acquire sufficient quantities of raw materials to produce our products, any interruption in those relationships could harm our results of operations and our revenues. Our manufacturing partners acquire substantially all of the raw materials that we use in our products from a limited number of suppliers. Accordingly, we can give no assurance that: Our inability to procure sufficient quality and quantities of products that are in demand could reduce our profitability and have a material adverse effect on our relationships with our customers. If any of our supplier relationships are terminated or interrupted, we could experience an immediate or long-term supply shortage, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Table of Contents (cid:6) the overall performance of the economy and discretionary consumer spending, (cid:6) competition within key markets, (cid:6) continued customer acceptable of our products, (cid:6) customer acceptance of newly developed products, and (cid:6) the demand for other products and services. (cid:6) our supplier relationships will continue as presently in effect, (cid:6) our suppliers will not become competitors, (cid:6) our suppliers will be able to obtain the components necessary to produce high-quality, technologically-advanced products for us, (cid:6) we will be able to obtain adequate alternatives to our supply sources should they be interrupted, (cid:6) if obtained, alternatively sourced products of satisfactory quality would be delivered on a timely basis, competitively priced, comparably featured or acceptable to our customers, and (cid:6) our suppliers will have sufficient financial resources to fulfill their obligations. 12  Because we do not internally develop the technology for a number of our key products, including the invisibleSHIELD, the impact of technological advancements may cause profit margin erosion and adversely impact our profitability and inventory value. Because we do not internally develop the technology for a number of our key products, including the invisibleSHIELD, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to source technologically advanced products in order to remain competitive. Furthermore, the introduction or expected introduction of new products or technologies may depress sales of existing products and technologies. This may result in declining profit margins and inventory obsolescence. Because we maintain a substantial investment in product inventory, declining prices and inventory obsolescence could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results. Our estimates of excess and obsolete inventory may prove to be inaccurate, in which case the net realizable value for excess and obsolete inventory may be understated or overstated. Although we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our forecasts of future product demand, any significant unanticipated changes in demand or technological developments could have a significant impact on the value of our inventory and operating results. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to expand into additional complementary product lines or to continue to configure our products to match new products or devices. Although we anticipate expanding into additional complementary product lines to provide support to our strategy to provide creative product solutions to mobile device users, there can be no guarantee that we will be successful in innovating and expanding into additional product lines. Numerous factors, including market acceptance, finding and retaining contract partners that are acceptable to ZAGG, and general market and economic conditions, could prevent us from participating in these complementary product lines, which could limit our ability to implement our business strategy. Similarly, although we intend to continue to configure the invisibleSHIELD, keyboards, audio products, cases, and other product lines for new products and devices, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to either match the demand for our products as new devices and products are introduced, or that purchasers of such devices and products will want to purchase our products for use in connection with them. Any limitation in our ability to match demand or gain market acceptance of our products in connection with new devices and products could have a material adverse effect on our business. If we fail to maintain proper inventory levels, our business could be harmed. We produce our key products prior to the time we receive customers’ purchase orders. We do this to minimize purchasing costs, the time necessary to fill customer orders, and the risk of non-delivery. However, we may be unable to sell the products we have produced in advance. Inventory levels in excess of customer demand may result in inventory write-downs, and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices could significantly impair our brand image and have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. Conversely, if we underestimate demand for our products or if we fail to produce the quality products that we require at the time we need them, we may experience inventory shortages. Inventory shortages might delay shipments to customers, negatively impact distributor relationships, and diminish brand loyalty. Mobile electronic devices typically have relatively short life cycles. We may be left with obsolete inventory if we do not accurately project the life cycle of different mobile electronic devices. The charges associated with reserving slow-moving or obsolete inventory as a result of not accurately estimating the useful life of mobile electronics could negatively impact the value of our inventory and operating results. As we continue to grow our business, increased sales to indirect retail customers may put pressure on our gross profit margins. Sales of products through indirect retail customers typically result in increased sales volume, but at lower margins than sales directly to end customers made on our websites. As the Company expands and continues to grow existing relationships with indirect customers, increases in sales to our indirect customers likely will adversely impact our gross profit margins. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will continue to recognize similar gross profit margins in the future to those currently being realized. As we continue to grow our business, entrance into new and complimentary product lines may put pressure on our gross profit margins. We anticipate expanding into additional complementary product lines to provide support to our strategy to provide creative product solutions to mobile device users. However, there can be no guarantee that sales of products through new product lines will occur at or above the gross profit margins we have historically realized. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will continue to recognize similar gross profit margins in the future to those currently being realized. Table of Contents 13  The Company has contractual rights customary in the industry to use its Internet addresses, but if these rights were lost, the loss could have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results from operations. The Company has protected the right to use its Internet addresses to the extent possible, and the Company does not expect to lose its rights to use the Internet addresses. However, there can be no assurance in this regard, and such loss could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Because we are dependent for our success on key executive officers, our inability to retain these officers would impede our business plan and growth strategies, which would have a negative impact on our business and the value of your investment. Our success depends on the skills, experience and performance of key members of our management team including Randy Hales, our President and CEO; Brandon T. O’Brien, our CFO; and Jason Schwartz, our COO. Although we have employment agreements with these individuals, were we to lose one or more of these key executive officers, we would be forced to expend significant time and money in the pursuit of a replacement, which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our business plan and the diversion of working capital. We can provide no assurance that we could find satisfactory replacements for these key executive officers at all, or on terms that would not be unduly expensive or burdensome to the Company. Although we routinely issue equity-based compensation to attract and retain employees, such incentives may not be sufficient to attract and retain key personnel. Two of our retailers, Best Buy and Walmart, account for a significant amount of our net sales, and the loss of, or reduced purchases from, these or other retailers could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. In 2013, Best Buy and Walmart accounted for 26% and 18%, respectively of our net sales. We do not have long-term contracts with any of our retailers, including Best Buy and Walmart, and all of our retailers generally purchase from us on a purchase order basis. As a result, these retailers generally may, with little or no notice or penalty, cease ordering and selling our products, or materially reduce their orders. If certain retailers, including Best Buy or Walmart, cease selling our products, slow their rate of purchase of our products, or decrease the number of products they purchase, our results of operations would be adversely affected. We may be adversely affected by the financial condition of our retailers and distributors. Some of our retailers and distributors have experienced financial difficulties in the past. A retailer or distributor experiencing such difficulties will generally not purchase and sell as many of our products as it would under normal circumstances and may cancel orders. In addition, a retailer or distributor experiencing financial difficulties generally increases our exposure to uncollectible receivables. We extend credit to our retailers and distributors based on our assessment of their financial condition, generally without requiring collateral. While such credit losses have historically been within our estimated reserves for allowances for bad debts, we cannot assure that this will continue to be the case. Financial difficulties on the part of our retailers or distributors could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. As of December 31, 2013, Best Buy and Walmart accounted for 44% and 14%, respectively, of accounts receivable. Both accounts are presently being paid on terms satisfactory to us. If we fail to attract, train and retain sufficient numbers of our qualified personnel, our prospects, business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. Our success depends to a significant degree upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate skilled and qualified personnel. Failure to attract and retain necessary technical personnel, sales and marketing personnel, and skilled management could adversely affect our business. If we fail to attract, train, and retain sufficient numbers of these highly qualified people, our prospects, business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. If our products contain defects, our reputation could be harmed and our results of operations adversely affected. Some of our products may contain undetected defects due to imperfections in the underlying base materials used in production or manufacturing defects. The occurrence of defects or malfunctions could result in financial losses for our customers and in turn increase warranty claims from our customers and diversion of our resources. Any of these occurrences could also result in the loss of or delay in market acceptance of our products and loss of sales. Because we experience seasonal and quarterly fluctuations in demand for our products, no one quarter is indicative of our results of operations for the entire fiscal year. Our quarterly results may fluctuate quarter to quarter as a result of market acceptance of our products, the sales mix, changes in pricing, the timing of inventory write downs, changes in the cost of materials, the use of airfreight to transport products, the incurrence of other operating costs and factors beyond our control, such as general economic conditions and actions of competitors. We are also affected by seasonal buying cycles of consumers, such as the holiday season, and the introduction of popular consumer electronics, such as a new introduction of products from Apple, Samsung, HTC, Blackberry, and others. Accordingly, the results of operations in any quarter will not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year or any future quarter. Table of Contents 14  Because we have limited protection on the intellectual property underlying our products, we may not be able to protect our products from the infringement of others or may be prevented from marketing our products. We do not own proprietary rights with respect to the film we use in our invisibleSHIELD products. However, we have protected key proprietary design and utility elements of other products through patents. In addition, we own and keep confidential the design configurations of the film and the product cut designs which are our copyrights. We seek to protect our intellectual property rights through confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and partners, and domestic and foreign patent prosecution and similar means. However, no assurance can be given that such measures will be sufficient to protect our intellectual property rights or that the intellectual property rights that we have are sufficient to protect other persons from creating and marketing substantially similar products. If we cannot protect our rights, we may lose our competitive advantage. Moreover, if it is determined that our products infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties, we may be prevented from marketing our products. Claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary rights, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, or require us to either enter into royalty or license agreements which are not advantageous to us or pay material amounts of damages. In addition, parties making these claims may be able to obtain an injunction, which could prevent us from selling our products. We face potential class action and derivative lawsuits and other potential liabilities that could materially adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have been, are currently, and may in the future be the subject of various lawsuits and proceedings. In September 2012, we and certain of our current and former officers and directors were named as defendants in two putative class action lawsuits. The plaintiffs in the putative class action lawsuits claim that as a result of Robert G. Pedersen's alleged December 2011 margin account sales, the defendants initiated a succession plan to replace Mr. Pedersen as our CEO with Mr. Hales, but failed to disclose either the succession plan or Mr. Pedersen's margin account sales, in violation of Sections 10(b), 14(a), and 20(a), and SEC Rules 10b-5 and 14a-9, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). On February 7, 2014, the Court entered an order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint. Additionally, in December 2012, the first of three shareholder derivative actions was filed against several of our current and former officers and directors. These complaints make allegations similar to those presented in the putative class action lawsuits, but they also assert various state law causes of action, including claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment, and insider trading. Management is currently assessing the impact of this decision by the court to grant the Company’s motion to dismiss the putative class action complaints on the other derivative lawsuits filed with the same allegations. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we received requests to provide documentation and information to the staff of the SEC in connection with a non-public investigation being conducted by the SEC’s Salt Lake City office. The Company believes the investigation includes a review of the facts and circumstances surrounding some of the same issues raised by the plaintiffs in the above lawsuits; specifically, whether the Company failed to disclose Mr. Pedersen's margin account sales or the alleged existence of a plan to have Mr. Hales succeed Mr. Pedersen as our CEO. The Company responded to these requests and is cooperating fully with the staff. The SEC investigation into the matter is ongoing and we are unable to assess or quantify with any certainty the outcome, timing or potential costs. See "Item 3-Legal Proceedings" for more information about these matters. In defending and ultimately resolving these matters, we may be required to pay amounts in excess of any insurance, divert management's attention from the operation of our business or change our business practices, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and, consequently, the trading price of our common stock. The current economy is affecting consumer spending patterns, which could adversely affect our business. Consumer spending patterns, especially discretionary spending for products such as mobile, consumer and accessory electronics, are affected by, among other things, prevailing economic conditions, energy costs, raw material costs, wage rates, inflation, interest rates, consumer debt, consumer confidence and consumer perception of economic conditions. A general slowdown in the U.S. and certain international economies, or an uncertain economic outlook could have a material adverse effect on our sales and operating results. The disruptions in the national and international economies since 2008 and the related uncertainties in unemployment are depressing consumer confidence and spending. If such conditions persist, consumer spending will likely decline further and this would have an adverse effect on our business and our results of operations. Table of Contents 15  If we are unable to effectively manage our growth, our operating results and financial condition will be adversely affected. We intend to return our business to growth by expanding our sales and product development organizations. Any growth in or expansion of our business is likely to place a strain on our management and administrative resources, infrastructure, and information systems. As with other growing businesses, we expect that we will need to refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes, and our access to financing sources. We also will need to hire, train, supervise, and manage new employees. These processes are time consuming and expensive, will increase management responsibilities and will divert management attention. We provide assurance that we will be able to: If our competitors misappropriate our proprietary know-how and trade secrets, it could have a material adverse effect on our business. We depend heavily on the expertise of our product development team. If any of our competitors copies or otherwise gains access to similar products independently, we might not be able to compete as effectively. The measures we take to protect our designs may not be adequate to prevent their unauthorized use. Further, the laws of foreign countries may provide inadequate protection of such intellectual property rights. We have brought and in the future may need to bring legal claims to enforce or protect such intellectual property rights. Any litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources. If any of our facilities were to experience catastrophic loss, our operations would be seriously harmed. Our facilities could be subject to a catastrophic loss from fire, flood, earthquake, or terrorist activity. Our activities, including sales and marketing, customer service, finance, and other critical business operations are in two locations. Our manufacturing and logistics activities are conducted at other facilities separate from our corporate headquarters. Any catastrophic loss at these facilities could disrupt our operations, delay production and revenue, and result in large expenses to repair or replace the facility. While we have obtained insurance to cover most potential losses, we cannot provide assurance that our existing insurance coverage will be adequate against all other possible losses. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, and current and potential stockholders may lose confidence in our financial reporting. We are required to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting that provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. We are likewise required, on an annual basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose on a quarterly basis any material changes in those internal controls. Any failure to maintain and continue to improve our internal controls could adversely impact our ability to report our financial results on a timely and accurate basis. If our financial statements are not accurate, investors may not have a complete understanding of our operations or may lose confidence in our reported financial information. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis as required by the SEC and The Nasdaq Global Market, we could face severe consequences from those authorities. In either case, it could result in a material adverse effect on our business or have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock. Because we distribute products internationally, economic, political and, other risks associated with our international sales and operations could adversely affect our operating results. Because we sell our products worldwide, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business internationally. Our sales to customers outside the United States accounted for approximately 10% of our net sales in fiscal 2013. Accordingly, our future results could be harmed by a variety of factors, including: Table of Contents (cid:6) expand our systems effectively or efficiently or in a timely manner; (cid:6) allocate our human resources optimally; (cid:6) meet our capital needs; (cid:6) identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or (cid:6) incorporate effectively the components of any business or product line that we may acquire in our effort to achieve growth. (cid:6) changes in foreign currency exchange rates; (cid:6) exchange controls; (cid:6) changes in regulatory requirements; (cid:6) changes in a specific country's or region's political or economic conditions; (cid:6) tariffs, other trade protection measures and import or export licensing requirements; (cid:6) potentially negative consequences from changes in tax laws or application of such tax laws; (cid:6) difficulty in staffing and managing widespread operations; 16  Our international operations are affected by global economic and political conditions, only some of which are described above. Changes in economic or political conditions in any of the countries in which we operate could result in exchange rate movement, new currency or exchange controls or other restrictions being imposed on our operations. We cannot provide assurance that such changes will not have an adverse effect on our foreign operations and our financial results. There can be no guarantee that additional amounts spent on marketing or advertising will result in additional sales or revenue to the Company. In 2014, management intends to expand our advertising with more inter-active displays within retailers and to continue our marketing efforts relating to existing products and potential new product introductions. However, there can be no guarantee that such increased advertising or marketing efforts and strategies will result in increased sales. Risks Related to the Company’s Securities Because the price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be, volatile, our shareholders may not be able to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price paid for such shares. The price for shares of our common stock has exhibited high levels of volatility with significant volume and price fluctuations, which may make our common stock unsuitable for some investors. For example, for the two years ended December 31, 2013, the closing price of our common stock ranged from a high of $13.03 to a low of $3.67 per share. At times, the fluctuations in the price of our common stock may have been unrelated to our operating performance. The price of our common stock may also have been influenced by: Based on the above, our stock price may continue to experience volatility. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that our investors will be able to resell our common stock at or above the price at which they purchased it. Because we may, at some time in the future, issue additional securities, shareholders are subject to dilution of their ownership. Although we have no immediate plans to raise additional capital, we may at some time in the future do so. Any such issuance would likely dilute shareholders’ownership interest in our company and may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. In addition, from time to time we may issue shares of common stock in connection with equity financing activities or as incentives to our employees and business partners. We may expand the number of shares available under stock incentive and option plans, or create new plans. All issuances of common stock would be dilutive to an existing investor’s holdings in the Company. If an investor’s holdings are diluted, the overall value of the shares may be diminished and the ability to influence shareholder voting will also be harmed. Because we do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, investors seeking cash dividends will not purchase our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to support the development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time. In addition, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited by state law. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may not occur in the future, as the only way to realize their investment.

Short selling is the practice of selling securities that the seller does not own, but rather has borrowed from a third party with the intention of buying identical securities back at a later date to return to the lender. The short seller hopes to profit from a decline in the value of the securities between the sale of the borrowed securities and the purchase of the replacement shares, as the short seller expects to pay less in that purchase than it received in the sale. As it is in the short seller’s best interests for the price of the stock to decline, many short sellers publish, or arrange for the publication of, negative opinions regarding the relevant issuer and its business prospects in order to create negative market momentum and generate profits for themselves after selling a stock short. These short attacks have, in the past, led to selling of shares in the market. In the past several years, our securities have been the subject of short selling. Reports and information have been published about ZAGG which the Company believes are mischaracterized or incorrect, and which have occasionally been followed by a decline in our stock price. It is not clear what additional effects the negative publicity will have on the Company, if any, other than potentially affecting the market price of our common stock. If the Company continues to be the subject of unfavorable allegations, the Company may have to expend a significant amount of resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend itself. While the Company would strongly defend against any such short seller attacks, the Company may be constrained in the manner in which it can proceed against the relevant short seller by principles of freedom of speech, applicable state law, or issues of commercial confidentiality. Such a situation could be costly and time-consuming, and could distract the Company’s management from growing the Company. Additionally, such allegations against the Company could negatively impact its business operations and stockholders equity, and the value of any investment in the Company’s stock could be reduced. ITEM 1B . UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Real Property (dollar amounts in thousands) Our principal executive offices facilities are currently located in approximately 57,000 square feet of office and warehouse space located at 3855 South 500 West, Suites B, C, D, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R and S, Salt Lake City, Utah 84115. In 2013, we added additional office space to the master lease agreement covering all of the suites that expires July 31, 2017, at a straight line monthly lease rate of $39. We also lease kiosk facilities located at seven mall locations in California, warehouse space in Logan, Utah for the fulfillment of certain iFrogz orders, and office space in Shannon, Ireland for the office of ZAGG International. We believe these facilities are adequate for the foreseeable future. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Certain of the legal proceedings in which we are involved are discussed in Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies," to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and are hereby incorporated by reference. ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES Not applicable. PART II On December 10, 2012, our board of directors approved a stock repurchase program by unanimous written consent. The stock repurchase program authorized the Company to make repurchases of $10,000 in the aggregate of shares of the Company’s common stock over the subsequent 12 months. The repurchases would be made through the use of a 10b5-1 Plan, which did not go into place until the beginning of March 2013. Table of Contents ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES (dollar and share amounts in thousands, excluding average price per share) 18  During March 2013 in nine separate transactions, the Company purchased 797 shares of ZAGG Inc common stock at the prevailing market price for a total of $5,999, which included processing fees totaling $24. In addition, during November 2013 in ten different transactions, the Company purchased 959 shares of ZAGG Inc common stock at the prevailing market price for a total of $3,998, which includes processing fees of $29.

The actual number of shares that were ultimately purchased in November 2013 was based on the market price of ZAGG Inc common stock at the time of purchase. 2013 Quarter Ended High Low March 31, 2013 $ 7.87 $ 6.69 June 30, 2013 $ 7.46 $ 4.86 September 30, 2013 $ 5.86 $ 4.45 December 31, 2013 $ 4.92 $ 3.67 2012 Quarter Ended High Low March 31, 2012 $ 11.06 $ 7.13 June 30, 2012 $ 13.03 $ 9.94 September 30, 2012 $ 11.45 $ 7.00 December 31, 2012 $ 8.97 $ 6.54 19  Holders of Common stock At February 8, 2014, there were approximately 29 registered holders or persons otherwise entitled to hold our common shares pursuant to a shareholders’ list provided by our transfer agent, Empire Stock Transfer. The number of registered shareholders excludes any estimate by us of the number of beneficial owners of common shares held in street name. Dividends There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend: We have not declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock since our inception, and our Board of Directors currently intends to retain all earnings for use in the business for the foreseeable future. Any future payment of dividends to holders of common stock will depend upon our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans (share amounts in thousands) In 2007, the Company’s board of directors adopted and in 2008 the Company’s shareholders approved the ZAGG Incorporated 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan was amended to increase the number of shares issuable under the 2007 Plan to 10,000. As of December 31, 2012, there were 6,161 shares available for grant under the 2007 Plan. In January 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and in June 2013 the Company’s shareholders approved the ZAGG Inc 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2013 Plan”), a new equity incentive plan intended to replace the 2007 Plan. The 2013 Plan is an “omnibus plan” under which stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards, restricted stock, and restricted stock units can be awarded. The 2013 Plan’s initial share reservation is 5,000 shares. The term of the plan is for 10 years from the date of its adoption. As of December 31, 2013, there were 4,464 shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan. Upon adoption of the 2013 Plan in January 2013, the Company ceased to grant awards pursuant to the 2007 Plan. All future awards will be granted under the 2013 Plan. All awards that are outstanding under the 2007 Plan will continue to vest, be exercisable, and expire according to their respective terms. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities (amounts in thousands) During the year ended December 31, 2013, we issued the following securities: We issued 500 unregistered shares of common stock as consideration for the purchase of a patent. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we issued the following securities: We issued 210 shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants to purchase 256 shares. We received proceeds of $0 related to the exercise of the warrants as the exercise was executed through a net share settlement. In each of the transactions listed above, the securities were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”) and rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. None of the transactions involved a public offering.

SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA (in thousands, except per share amounts) The selected historical financial data presented below are derived from our consolidated financial statements. The selected financial data should be read in conjunction with Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC. Overview At ZAGG, our focus is to (1) design creative product solutions for users of mobile devices, (2) sell these products to end-users through global distribution partners and online, and (3) become the preferred brand through the innovation and quality of our products, providing excellent customer service, and focusing on the end-users’ knowledge and experience with our products. We focus our corporate, team, and individual goals to accomplish this overall corporate strategy.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 22  We plan to continue to expand our product offerings, including into new product categories, and entering new domestic and global markets that we believe will be consistent with our overall corporate strategy. Our products are available through our websites at www.ZAGG.com and www.iFrogz.com, and through our retail distribution channels, which include major retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, Target, AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, Radio Shack, Staples, and The Carphone Warehouse; independent electronics resellers; college bookstores; independent Mac stores; mall kiosks; and other online retailers. During 2013, we had two customers that accounted for more than 10% of our net sales. We continue to increase our product lines to offer additional electronic accessories and services to our tech-savvy customer base. To recap results for 2013 (amounts in thousands): Our strategic business objectives for 2014 include the following: We intend for the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations to provide information that will assist in understanding our consolidated financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from period to period, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect our consolidated financial statements. Table of Contents ● Our revenue declined 17% from $264,425 in 2012 to $219,356 in 2013. The decline in revenue from 2012 to 2013 was primarily related to the following factors: (1) increase market competition in our major product lines, (2) a decline in our online sales across all product lines, (3) a decline in sales through distribution partners, which was directly impacted by our decision during the first quarter of 2013 to cease selling into a number of then distribution customers to resolve pricing conflicts, and (4) our failure to expand distribution to our direct wholesales customers and close significant business with new customers at the same rate as in 2012. ● Sales of invisibleSHIELD products accounted for approximately 46% of total sales in 2012 and approximately 42% of total sales in 2013. Sales of keyboard products accounted for approximately 24% of total sales in 2012 and approximately 29% of total sales in 2013. Sales of audio products were 16% of total sales in both 2012 and 2013. ● Our gross profit declined from $120,545 in 2012 to $87,120 in 2013. Gross profit as a percent of revenue also declined from 46% in 2012 to 40% in 2013. This decline in profit margin was linked to the following items: (1) the continued product sales mix shift, as a higher percentage of our total sales were generated by lower margin products such as our keyboard, audio, and case products compared to prior years where a higher percentage of sales were generated by our invisibleSHIELD products, our highest margin product line; (2) the continued channel sales mix shift as sales through indirect channels continue to grow, which are at lower margins than website sales directly to the consumer; (3) an increase in the Company’s participation in cooperative marketing programs with retail partners; and (4) inventory write-downs recorded during 2013 for product to be sold below the carrying value, ● Our operating income decreased by 67% from $33,491 in 2012 to $10,946 in 2013. Our operating margin percentage decreased from 13% in 2012 to 5% in 2013. The decrease in operating margin was due primarily to the following items: (1) the impact of the reduction in gross profit margin as discussed above; (2) an $11,246 non-cash charge for the impairment of goodwill and an intangible trademark asset recorded during the fourth quarter of 2013 – a similar charge of $11,497 was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2012, but the charge in 2013 was more impactful to the operating margin given the decline in sales and gross profit in 2013 compared to 2012; and (3) a non-cash impairment charge of $591 incurred during the second quarter of 2013 related to an investment in a private company. ● Continue to design creative product solutions for users of mobile devices; ● expand the distribution of our products through targeted, global distribution partners; ● become the preferred brand through the innovation and quality of our products; ● increase market presence within retailers through interactive advertising displays; ● focus on our international sales opportunities through our distribution facility in Ireland that we expect to enable us to better serve our worldwide customer base; ● increase the number of SKUs with our existing customers from products under both the ZAGG and iFrogz brands; and ● grow our traffic and sales through our websites www.ZAGG.com and www.iFrogz.com . 23  Critical Accounting Policies (in thousands) The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Significant items subject to such estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserve, sales returns liability, the useful life of property and equipment, the useful life of intangible assets, the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably may have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur may materially impact the financial statements. Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Revenue recognition The Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenue is derived from sales of our products through our indirect channel, including retailers and distributors; through our direct channel including www.ZAGG.com , www.iFrogz.com , and our corporate-owned and third-party-owned mall kiosks; and from the fees derived from the sale of exclusive independent distributor licenses related to the kiosk program. For sales of product, our standard shipping terms are FOB shipping point, and we record revenue when the product is shipped, net of estimated returns and discounts. For some customers, the contractual shipping terms are FOB destination. For these shipments, we record revenue when the product is delivered, net of estimated returns and discounts. For license fees, we recognize revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the license term. The Company records revenue from royalty agreements in the period in which the royalty is earned. Promotional products given to customers or potential customers are recognized as a cost of sales. Cash incentives provided to our customers are recognized as a reduction of the related sale price, and, therefore, are a reduction in sales. Reserve for sales returns and warranty liability For product sales, the Company records revenue, net of estimated returns and discounts, when delivery has occurred, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Our return policy allows its end users and retailers rights to return purchased products. In addition, the Company generally provides the ultimate consumer a warranty with each product. Due to the nature of the invisibleSHIELD product line, end user returns for the invisibleSHIELD are generally not salvageable and are not included in inventory. We estimate a reserve for sales returns and warranty and record the estimated reserve amount as a reduction of sales, and as a sales return reserve liability. When product is returned and is expected to be resold, as is the case with returns of packaged invisibleSHIELDs, keyboards, audio products, cases, and power products, the reserve is recorded as a reduction of revenues and cost of sales, and as a sales return reserve liability. The sales returns and warranty reserve requires management to make estimates regarding return rates for sales and warranty returns. Historical experience, actual claims, and customer return rights are the key factors used in determining the estimated sales return and warranty reserve. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We provide customary credit terms to our customers. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of our customers and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical collections experience and judgments as to expected collectability of accounts. Our actual bad debts may differ from our estimates. Valuation of Note Receivable We engaged independent third-party appraisal firms to assist us in determining the fair values of collateral of the note receivable. Such valuations require significant estimates and assumptions. Management determined the value of the 80 shares of ZAGG common stock held by Mr. Harmer based on quoted market prices. The real estate holdings securing the note receivable were valued primarily based on the sales comparison approach as sales of comparable properties were utilized. The investments in real estate companies were valued utilizing comparable market sales, a discounted cash flow analysis, and other appropriate valuation methodologies. Table of Contents 24  Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. Inventories In assessing the realization of inventories, we are required to make judgments as to future demand requirements and to compare these with current inventory levels. When the market value of inventory is less than the carrying value, the inventory cost is written down to the estimated net realizable value thereby establishing a new cost basis. Our inventory requirements may change based on our projected customer demand, market conditions, technological and product life cycle changes, longer or shorter than expected usage periods, and other factors that could affect the valuation of our inventories. Income taxes The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when differences are expected to be settled or realized. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realizable in the future. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records estimated interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as a component of income tax provision. The Company has foreign subsidiaries formed or acquired to conduct or support its business outside the United States. The Company does not provide for U.S. income taxes on undistributed earnings for its foreign subsidiaries as the foreign earnings will be permanently reinvested in such foreign jurisdictions. Long-lived Assets We have significant long-lived tangible and intangible assets consisting of property and equipment, definite-lived intangibles, indefinite-lived intangibles, and goodwill. We review these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. In addition, we perform an impairment test related to indefinite-lived intangibles and goodwill at least annually. Our goodwill and intangible assets are largely attributable to our acquisition of iFrogz in 2011. At least annually and when events and circumstances warrant an evaluation, we perform our impairment assessment of goodwill. This assessment initially permits an entity to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would not need to perform the two-step impairment test for the reporting unit. However, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the two step analysis is performed, which incorporates a fair-value based approach. We determine the fair value of our reporting unit based on discounted cash flows and market approach analyses as considered necessary, and consider factors such as a weakened economy, reduced expectations for future cash flows, and decline in the market price of our stock and market capitalization for a sustained period as indicators for potential goodwill impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its estimated fair value, a second step must be performed to measure the amount of the goodwill impairment loss, if any. The second step compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, with the carrying amount of such goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually, or, more frequently upon the occurrence of a triggering event. This assessment initially permits an entity to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired before applying a quantitative impairment test. If an entity can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than the carrying value, it would not need to perform a quantitative impairment test. However, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible assets is less than the carrying value, a quantitative impairment test is performed, which incorporates a fair-value based approach. The fair value for indefinite-lived intangible assets is determined by performing cash flow analysis and other market evaluations as considered necessary. If the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets is less than book value, the difference is recognized as an impairment loss. Table of Contents 25  We assess other long-lived assets, specifically definite-lived intangibles and property, plant and equipment, for potential impairment based on similar impairment indicators. When indicators of impairment exist related to our long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets, we use an estimate of the undiscounted net cash flows in measuring whether the carrying amount of the assets is recoverable. Measurement of the amount of impairment, if any, is based upon the difference between the asset’s carrying value and estimated fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including market and income approaches as considered necessary. If forecasts and assumptions used to support the realizability of our goodwill and other long-lived assets change in the future, significant impairment charges could result that would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Stock-based compensation The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated financial statements for awards granted to employees and non-employees, which include restricted stock, stock options, and warrants. Equity-classified awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of restricted stock is measured on the grant date based on the quoted closing market price of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the stock options is measured on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the underlying common stock closing price as of the date of grant, the expected term, stock price volatility, and risk-free interest rates . The Company recognizes compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the award. No compensation expense is ultimately recognized for awards for which employees do not render the requisite service and are forfeited. Excess tax benefits of awards that are recognized in equity related to stock option exercises are reflected as financing cash inflows. Results of Operations (in thousands) The following table sets forth our results of operations expressed as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated (amounts in thousands): * At December 31, 2010, HzO, a private company engaged in the development of water-blocking technologies for consumer and industrial applications, was consolidated by the Company as a variable interest entity (VIE). On December 22, 2011, HzO entered into an Amended Series B Stock Purchase Agreement with a group of third party investors. ZAGG considered this a reconsideration event and concluded that as of December 22, 2011, HzO should no longer be considered a VIE under authoritative accounting literature, but was considered a voting interest entity. Ultimately, management concluded that HzO should no longer be consolidated into the ZAGG financials as of December 31, 2011. From December 22, 2011 to the fourth quarter of 2013, management accounted for its investment in HzO as an equity method investment. However, during the fourth quarter of 2013, HzO received additional equity financing, in which ZAGG did not participate. As a result of the additional investment, ZAGG’s investment declined below 20% and the investment is now accounted for as a cost method investment.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, sales of our invisibleSHIELD product line accounted for approximately 42% of our revenues, compared to 46% in 2012. Sales in 2013 of our keyboard line accounted for approximately 29% of our revenues, compared to 24% in 2012. The decline in revenue from 2012 to 2013 was primarily related to the following factors: (1) increase market competition in our major product lines, (2) a decline in our online sales across all product lines, (3) a decline in sales through distribution partners, which was directly impacted by our decision during the first quarter of 2013 to cease selling into a number of then distribution customers, and (4) our failure to expand distribution to our direct wholesales customers and close significant business with new customers at the same rate as in 2012. We continue to sell into our indirect channel retailers including Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Radio Shack, Staples, and the Carphone Warehouse; wireless carriers such as AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, Cricket, and Cincinnati Bell; and both domestic and foreign electronics accessory distributors. We are still focused on distribution through our mall kiosk program and through our websites, www.ZAGG.com and www.iFrogz.com . For the year ended December 31, 2013, approximately 85% of our overall net sales were through our indirect channel, 9% were through our websites, and 6% were through our mall cart and kiosk programs. For the year ended December 31, 2012, approximately 82% of our overall net sales were through our indirect channel, 13% were through our websites, and 5% were through our mall cart and kiosk programs. Gross profit Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2013, was $87,120 or approximately 40% of net sales as compared to $120,545 or approximately 46% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decline in profit margin was linked to the following factors: (1) the continued product sales mix shift, as a higher percentage of our total sales were generated by lower margin products such as our keyboard, audio, and case products compared to prior years where a higher percentage of sales were generated by our invisibleSHIELD products, our highest margin product line; (2) a decline in sales through distribution partners, which was directly impacted by our decision during the first quarter of 2013 to cease selling into a number of then distribution customers to resolve pricing conflicts; (3) our failure to expand distribution to our direct wholesales customers and close significant business with new customers at the same rate as in 2012; and (4) inventory write-downs recorded during 2013 for product to be sold below the carrying value. As we seek to return our business to growth, we anticipate that we will have increased sales through indirect channel partners and that our sales of keyboard, audio, case, and products in new categories will increase more quickly than our invisibleSHIELD product sales. Thus, we expect these factors, along with increased in-store advertising to end customers, to put pressure on our gross profit percentage in future periods. There are no assurances that we will continue to recognize similar gross profit margins in the future. Operating expenses Total operating expenses for year ended December 31, 2013, were $76,174, a decrease of $10,880 from total operating expenses for year ended December 31, 2012, of $87,054. The $10,880 decrease in operating expenses was primarily attributable to the overall decreases in advertising and marketing expenses, $1,409 in payroll and stock based compensation expense incurred during the third quarter of 2012 related to the departure of Robert Pedersen II (the Company’s former chief executive officer) that did not recur in 2013, a reduction in salaries and benefits expense largely attributable to executives and employees not achieving their 2013 annual bonus (the bonus was earned in 2012), a reduction in credit card and bank fees due to lower online sales during 2013 compared to 2012, a decline in commissions driven by the reduction in overall sales comparing 2013 to 2012, an overall reduction in stock based compensation expense due to a decrease in grants and the decline in the Company’s stock price as compared to grants in prior years, and other declines in other selling, general and administrative expenses due to cost control initiatives instituted by the Company during the second quarter of 2013. These decreases were partially offset by (1) a charge of $591 incurred during the second quarter of 2013 related to the impairment of an investment in a private company that was originally acquired by the Company as part of the foreclosure of collateral securing a note receivable and (2) an $11,246 non-cash charge for the impairment of goodwill and an intangible trademark asset recorded during the fourth quarter of 2013 – a similar charge of $11,497 was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2012, but the charge in 2013 was more impactful to the operating margin given the decline in sales and gross profit in 2013 compared to 2012. Income from operations We reported income from operations of $10,946 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to income from operations of $33,491 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $22,545. The change in income from operations was due to the items identified above under gross profit and operating expenses. Other income (expense) For the year ended December 31, 2013, total other expense was $2,461 compared to total other expense of $9,593 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease is primarily attributable to (1) a reduction in interest expense tied to an overall reduction in debt from $46,173 at December 31, 2012 to $17,543 at December 31, 2013, coupled with a reduction in our interest rate from 7.25% throughout most of 2012 to a rate that fluctuated between 1.00% and 1.63% during 2013; (2) a charge of $430 paid to PNC and Cerberus to terminate our prior credit agreement when the Company refinanced with Wells Fargo in December 2012, which was classified as a component of interest expense in the consolidated financials and did not recur in 2013, (3) a non-cash charge of $1,509 related to the write-off of debt issuance costs when the Company terminated its credit agreement with PNC and Cerberus and entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo in December 2012, which was classified as part of interest expense and did not recur in 2013, and (4) a decline in the loss from our equity method investment in HzO as the balance was reduced to $0 during 2013. Income taxes We recognized an income tax expense of $3,695 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to income tax expense of $9,393 for the year ended December 31, 2012. From 2012 to 2013, our effective tax rate increased from 39.3% to 43.5%. The increase in rate is due to the reduction in income before tax during the Table of Contents year coupled with certain non-deductible charges incurred during the year that included the loss on equity method investment in HzO, the impairment of an investment during the second quarter of 2013, and a decrease in the domestic manufacturing deduction percentage – these items were much more pronounced during the year due to the drop in income before tax than they would have otherwise been. Net income As a result of these factors, we reported net income of $4,790 or $0.15 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to net income of $14,505 or $0.46 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2012. 27  YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012, AS COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 (in thousands, except per share data) Net sales Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012, were $264,425 compared to net sales of $179,125 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $85,300 or 48%. For the year ended December 31, 2012, sales of our invisibleSHIELD product line accounted for approximately 46% of our revenues, compared to 58% in 2011, which represents an increase in total dollar sales increased year over year. Sales in 2012 of our keyboard line accounted for approximately 24% of our revenues, compared to 17% in 2011. We experienced significant growth in our indirect channel to retailers including Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Radio Shack, and Staples; wireless carriers such as AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, Cricket, Cincinnati Bell, and The Carphone Warehouse; and both domestic and foreign electronics accessory distributors. We are still focused on distribution through our mall kiosk program and through our websites, www.ZAGG.com and www.iFrogz.com , but the significant growth for 2012 was through our indirect channel as we began selling through additional customers and expanded our SKU count with our current customers. For the year ended December 31, 2012, approximately 82% of our overall net sales were through our indirect channel, 13% were through our websites, and 5% were through our mall cart and kiosk programs. For the year ended December 31, 2011, approximately 78% of our overall net sales were through our indirect channel, 16% were through our websites, and 6% were through our mall cart and kiosk programs. Gross profit Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2012, was $120,545 or approximately 46% of net sales as compared to $81,924 or approximately 46% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011. Our consistent gross profit percentage is primarily the result of year-over-year changes in acquisition related charges, and in operational decisions made to meet customer needs and grow our business. During 2011, management incurred charges through cost of sales related to the write-up of iFrogz inventory at acquisition. As noted, these charges all occurred in 2011 and thus decreased 2011 gross profit compared to 2012. This was offset by the following items that decreased gross profit during 2012 compared to 2011: (1) an increase airfreight shipping costs incurred during 2012 primarily linked to product releases; (2) the continued product sales mix shift, as a higher percentage of our total sales were generated by lower margin products such as our keyboard, audio, and case products compared to prior years where a higher percentage of sales were generated by our invisibleSHIELD products, our highest margin products; and (3) the continued channel sales mix shift as sales through indirect channels continue to grow, which are at lower-margins than website sales directly to the consumer. Operating expenses Total operating expenses for year ended December 31, 2012, were $87,054, an increase of $33,267 from total operating expenses for year ended December 31, 2011, of $53,787. The $33,267 increase is primarily attributable to an overall increase in marketing and advertising spend during the year to support product launches, a non-cash impairment charge of $11,497 recorded during the fourth quarter or 2012 from the EarPollution trademark due to the Company’s determination that cash flows under the trademark would be less than previously estimated, and an increase in amortization expense due primarily to a full-year of amortization of the intangibles acquired as part of the iFrogz acquisition. In addition, the Company experienced a significant increase in salaries and related taxes due to the following: (1) increase in stock compensation expense from $3,258 in 2011 to $6,018 in 2012, from executive stock compensation awards and a Company-wide grant of stock compensation awards; (2) our consolidated company headcount increased from 261 employees to 273 (though 49 of the 261 employees at the beginning of 2012 were part of the iFrogz acquisition and thus were only part of the Company for approximately half of 2011) – this increase and a full-year with the iFrogz employees caused the overall increase in this expense category; (3) $910 in employment termination expenses incurred in the third quarter of 2012 related to the departure of former CEO, Robert Pedersen II; (4) a new company-wide bonus program that commenced in March 2012; and (5) 2012 executive compensation salary adjustments. Income from operations We reported income from operations of $33,491 for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to income from operations of $28,137 for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $5,354. Included in 2012 income from operations is a non-cash impairment charge of $11,497 recorded in the fourth quarter of 2012. Excluding this non-cash charge, income from operations would have been $44,988, an increase of $16,851 compared to 2011. The increased income from operations for the year ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, is primarily attributable to the overall increase in net sales of our invisibleSHIELD, keyboard, audio, and case product lines; expanded distribution through our indirect channel partners, online, and through our cart owners; a full year of iFrogz operations during 2012 (only six months of operations in 2011), which was partially offset by a decrease in gross profit due to the continued shift in our product and channel sales mix. Table of Contents 28  Other income (expense) For the year ended December 31, 2012, total other expense was $9,593 compared to total other expense of $1,135 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is primarily due to (1) approximately a full-year of interest expense under our previous debt agreement with PNC and Cerberus that was incurred at the time of the iFrogz acquisition on June 21, 2011, while 2011 only had approximately six months of interest expense, (2) a charge of $430 paid to PNC and Cerberus to terminate the credit agreement when the Company refinanced with Wells Fargo, which is classified as a component of interest expense in the consolidated financials, (3) a non-cash charge of $1,509 related to the write-off of debt issuance costs when the Company terminated its credit agreement with PNC and Cerberus and entered into a new credit agreement with Wells Fargo, which is classified as part of interest expense, and (4) a loss from our equity method investment in HzO of $2,866. Income taxes We recognized an income tax expense of $9,393 for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to income tax expense of $9,418 for the year ended December 31, 2011. From 2011 to 2012, our effective tax rate increased from 34.9% to 39.3%. Due to the reduction in income before tax during the year, which was primarily related to the $11.5 impairment charge, the impact of applying a valuation allowance to the loss on equity method investment in HzO and a decrease in the domestic manufacturing deduction percentage were much more pronounced during the year than they would have otherwise been. Net income attributable to shareholders As a result of these factors, we reported net income attributable to stockholders of $14,505 or $0.46 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to net income attributable to stockholders of $18,248 or $0.63 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2011. Liquidity and Capital Resources (in thousands) At December 31, 2013, our principle sources of liquidity were cash generated by operations, cash on-hand, and the issuance of a Line of Credit with Wells Fargo. Our principle uses of cash have been to fund working capital requirements, make payments on outstanding debt, and purchase shares of ZAGG Inc common stock. Cash and cash equivalents on-hand decreased to $15,031 on December 31, 2013, from $20,177 on December 31, 2012, a decrease of $5,146. The decrease in cash is largely the result of positive cash from operations during 2013, offset by $28,630 in payments on debt during 2013 and $9,997 in cash used to purchase treasury stock. Earnings from foreign operations are considered permanently re-invested and of the $15,031 cash balance on December 31, 2013, cash from foreign entities totaled $3,361, which constitutes 22.4% of the total cash and cash equivalents balance. At December 31, 2013, we had an income tax payable balance of $6,359. At December 31, 2013, we had working capital of $83,385 compared to $89,369 as of December 31, 2012. Based on our current level of operations, we believe that cash generated from operations, cash on hand, and available borrowings under our existing credit arrangements will be adequate to meet our currently expected capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next 12 months and beyond. However, we operate in a rapidly evolving and often unpredictable business environment that may change the timing or amount of expected future cash receipts and expenditures. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we may not be required to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or debt securities or from debt facilities. Additional capital, if needed, may not be available on satisfactory terms, if at all. Debt and Letters of Credit On December 20, 2013, the Company and Wells Fargo entered into the Amendment, which modifies the original Credit Agreement entered into between the Company and Wells Fargo on December 7, 2012. The Amendment retains the $60,000 Line of Credit and extends the maturity date from December 1, 2014 to December 1, 2015. At the time of the Amendment, the $18,000 outstanding on the original $24,000 term loan was paid in full utilizing proceeds from the Line of Credit. In addition, the Line of Credit includes a letter of credit sub-feature that allows the Company to issue standby commercial letters of credit against the Line of Credit, not to exceed at any time an aggregate of $5.0 million. During 2012 and 2013, the Company has not issued any standby commercial letters of credit. Table of Contents 29  As consideration for entering into the Amendment, the Company agreed to pay to Wells Fargo an amendment fee of $30 as well as reasonable legal and collateral examination fees. Borrowings and repayments under the Line of Credit may occur from time to time in the Company’s ordinary course of business through December 1, 2015. Any outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit mature and are due on December 1, 2015. The outstanding principal balance under the Line of Credit bears interest at a fluctuating rate per annum determined to be the sum of the (1) LIBOR margin established under the Credit Agreement (with the initial LIBOR margin being set at 1.25%) and (2) Daily Three Month LIBOR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in effect from time to time. Each change in the rate of interest will become effective on each business day on which a change in Daily Three Month LIBOR is announced by Wells Fargo. At December 31, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit was 1.00%. At December 31, 2013, the effective interest rate was 1.11%. At December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with covenants associated with the Credit Agreement. Contractual Obligations and Commitments (in thousands) The following table provides information on our contractual obligations as of December 31, 2013: Off Balance Sheet Arrangements As of December 31, 2013, there were no off balance sheet arrangements. ITEM 7A . QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In addition, our international operations are subject to risks related to differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures and other regulations and restrictions. To date we have not utilized derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. We do not expect to employ these or other strategies to hedge market risk in the foreseeable future. We invest our cash in money market funds, which are subject to minimal credit and market risk. We believe that the market risks associated with these financial instruments are immaterial, although there can be no guarantee that these market risks will be immaterial to us. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further discussion of our financing facilities and capital structure. Market risk, calculated as the potential change in fair value of our cash equivalents and line of credit resulting from a hypothetical 1.0% (100 basis point) change in interest rates, was not material at December 31, 2013.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2013. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and were designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. During the most recent fiscal year, there has not occurred any change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies which may be identified during this process. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: 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 based on the framework in "Internal Control—Integrated Framework" (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective and designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting, which is included at 9A.5 below. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Nevertheless, an internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system reflects the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls are considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Table of Contents ITEM 9.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls 31  To the Board of Directors and Stockholders ZAGG Inc: We have audited ZAGG Inc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December, 31, 2013 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 COSO). ZAGG Inc’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (Item 9A.3). Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, ZAGG Inc maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of ZAGG Inc and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, and our report dated March 12, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ZAGG Inc and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), ZAGG Inc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 COSO), and our report dated March 12, 2014 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

F-8  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) (1) ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company We were formed as a Nevada corporation on April 2, 2004, under the name Amerasia Khan Enterprises Ltd (“AKE”). On February 8, 2007, AKE executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between AKE and its wholly owned subsidiary, SZC Acquisition, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Subsidiary”) on the one hand, and ShieldZone Corporation, a Utah corporation (“ShieldZone”) on the other hand. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, ShieldZone merged with Subsidiary, with ShieldZone surviving the merger and Subsidiary ceasing to exist (the “Merger”). Following the Merger, ShieldZone was reincorporated in Nevada as a subsidiary of AKE. On March 7, 2007, ShieldZone was merged into AKE and AKE changed its name to ZAGG Incorporated. As a result of these transactions, the historical financial statements of ZAGG Incorporated are the historical financial statements of ShieldZone. The Company changed its name from ShieldZone Corporation to ZAGG Incorporated to better position the Company to become a large enterprise in the electronics’ accessories industry through organic growth and through making targeted acquisitions. The ShieldZone name was very specific to the invisibleSHIELD product line, and although the invisibleSHIELD is a core product, the name change has brought the Company the opportunity to easily add new products to its product offering. During 2011, the Company changed its name from ZAGG Incorporated to ZAGG Inc. On June 21, 2011, ZAGG acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of iFrogz, which further diversified the existing ZAGG product line, particularly for audio and protective case accessories. The Company designs, produces, and distributes professional and premium creative product solutions such as invisibleSHIELD screen protection, keyboards, keyboard cases, earbuds, headphones, portable power, cables, cases, Bluetooth speakers, and mobile device cleaning accessories for mobile and media devices under the family of ZAGG and invisibleSHIELD brands. In addition, the Company designs, produces, and distributes earbuds, headphones, Bluetooth speakers, Near-Field Audio amplifying speakers, cases, and cables for mobile and media devices under the family of iFrogz brands in the trendy and youth oriented lifestyle sector. Use of estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserve, sales returns liability, the useful life of property and equipment, the useful life of intangible assets, the recoverability of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate an adjustment is necessary. Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ZAGG Inc and its wholly owned subsidiaries ZAGG International Distribution Limited (“ZAGG International”), Patriot Corporation, ZAGG Intellectual Property Holding Co, Inc., and ZAGG Retail, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. F-9  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) At December 31, 2010, HzO, a private company engaged in the development of water-blocking technologies for consumer and industrial applications, was consolidated by the Company as a variable interest entity (VIE). On December 22, 2011, HzO entered into an Amended Series B Stock Purchase Agreement with a group of third party investors. ZAGG considered this a reconsideration event and concluded that as of December 22, 2011, HzO should no longer be considered a VIE under authoritative accounting literature, but was considered a voting interest entity. Ultimately, management concluded that HzO should no longer be consolidated into the ZAGG financials as of December 31, 2011. From December 22, 2011 to the fourth quarter of 2013, management accounted for its investment in HzO as an equity method investment. However, during the fourth quarter of 2013, HzO received additional equity financing, in which ZAGG did not participate. As a result of the additional investment, ZAGG’s investment declined below 20% and the investment is now accounted for as a cost method investment. The carrying amount of the investment in HzO is $0 at December 31, 2013. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Amounts receivable from credit card processors are also considered cash equivalents because they are both short-term and highly liquid in nature and are typically converted to cash within three days of the sales transaction. Amounts receivable from credit card processors at December 31, 2013 and 2012 totaled $19 and $21, respectively. Cash equivalents as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, consisted primarily of money market fund investments and amounts receivable from credit card processors. Fair value measurements The Company measures at fair value certain financial and non-financial assets by using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are: Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs); and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting unit to develop its own assumptions. Accounts receivable The Company sells its products to end users through indirect distribution channels and other resellers who are extended credit terms after an analysis of their financial condition and credit worthiness. Credit terms to distributors and resellers, when extended, are based on evaluation of the customers' financial condition. Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. Management regularly evaluates the allowance for doubtful accounts considering historical losses adjusted to take into account current market conditions, customers’ financial condition, receivables in dispute, receivables aging, and current payment patterns. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Payments subsequently received on written off receivables are credited to bad debt expense in the period of recovery. Cash equivalents F-10  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The following summarizes the activity in the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011: Inventories Inventories, consisting primarily of finished goods and raw materials, are valued at the lower of cost, determined on a first in, first out basis, or market. Management performs periodic assessments to determine the existence of obsolete, slow moving, and non-saleable inventories, and records necessary write downs in cost of sales to reduce such inventories to net realizable value. Once established, the original cost of the inventory less the related inventory write down represents the new cost basis of such products. Property and equipment Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease. Major additions and improvements are capitalized, while costs for minor replacements, maintenance and repairs that do not increase the useful life of an asset are expensed as incurred. Upon retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts. The resulting gain or loss is reflected in selling, general and administrative expense. Intangibles assets Intangible assets include internet addresses, patents, intellectual property, and acquired intangibles in connection with the acquisition of iFrogz, which include customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements, and other miscellaneous intangible assets. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated economic lives, using a straight-line or accelerated method consistent with the underlying expected future cash flows related to the specific intangible asset. Amortization expense is recorded within cost of sales or operating expense depending on the underlying intangible assets. Impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and definite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets The Company does not amortize goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. At least annually and when events and circumstances warrant an evaluation, management performs an impairment assessment of goodwill. This assessment initially permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would not need to perform the two-step impairment test for the reporting unit. For the Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Balance at beginning of year $ 2,974 $ 2,070 $ 904 Additions charged to expense 1,142 2,101 1,657 Write-offs charged against the allowance (1,576 ) (1,197 ) (491 ) Balance at end of year $ 2,540 $ 2,974 $ 2,070 F-11  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) However, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the two step analysis is performed, which incorporates a fair-value based approach. Management determines the fair value of its reporting units based on discounted cash flows and market approach analyses as considered necessary, and consider factors such as a weakened economy, reduced expectations for future cash flows coupled with a decline in the market price of the Company’s stock and market capitalization for a sustained period as indicators for potential goodwill impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its estimated fair value, a second step must be performed to measure the amount of the goodwill impairment loss, if any. The second step compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, with the carrying amount of such goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. During the fourth quarter of 2013, management recorded a goodwill impairment of $1,484. During the fourth quarter of 2012, management recorded a goodwill impairment of $5,441. No impairment was recorded in 2011. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually, or, more frequently upon the occurrence of a triggering event. Initially, a qualitative analysis is performed to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets. A quantitative assessment is only performed if it is determined in the qualitative analysis that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. If it is determined in the qualitative analysis that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired, the Company evaluates the recoverability of an indefinite-lived intangible asset by comparing the indefinite-lived intangible asset’s book value to its estimated fair value. The fair value for indefinite-lived intangible assets is determined by performing cash flow analysis and other market evaluations. If the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets is less than book value, the difference is recognized as an impairment loss. During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company made a brand strategy decision to place greater emphasis on the promotion of the ZAGG and invisbleSHIELD brands, highlighted by the decision to brand the line of gaming controllers as ZAGG products instead of under the iFrogz brand, which was the original product branding. As a result of this decision, the Company determined that future cash flows under the iFrogz trademark would be less than previously estimated and that the trademark should be considered a definite-lived intangible asset. Management performed an impairment analysis and recorded a non-cash impairment of $9,762 related to the iFrogz trademark at December 31, 2013. As the trademark is now considered a definite-lived intangible, the Company will commence amortizing the remaining trademark balance of $7,038 on an accelerated basis over a ten-year life consistent with the trademark’s projected future cash flows from the trademark. During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company determined that future cash flows under the EarPollution trademark would be less than previously estimated and that the trademark should be considered a definite-lived intangible asset. Management performed an impairment analysis and recorded a non-cash impairment of $5,917 related to the EarPollution trademark at December 31, 2012. As the trademark was then considered a definite-lived intangible, the Company commenced amortizing the trademark on an accelerated basis over an eight-year life consistent with the trademark’s projected future cash flows from the trademark. No impairments of definite-lived intangibles were recorded in 2011. The Company performs its goodwill and intangible asset impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. The Company established reporting units based on its current reporting structure. For purposes of testing goodwill for impairment, goodwill is assigned to a reporting unit. Prior to performing the 2013 goodwill impairment test, all goodwill was assigned to the ZAGG Domestic reporting unit. F-12  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Contingencies Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. Revenue recognition The Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenue is derived from sales of its products through its indirect channel, including retailers and distributors; through its direct channel including www.ZAGG.com , www.iFrogz.com , and its corporate-owned and third-party-owned mall kiosks and ZAGG branded stores; and from the fees derived from the sale of exclusive franchise rights related to the kiosk program. For sales of product, its standard shipping terms are FOB shipping point, and the Company records revenue when the product is shipped, net of estimated returns and discounts. For some customers, the contractual shipping terms are FOB destination. For these shipments, the Company records revenue when the product is delivered, net of estimated returns and discounts. For license fees, the Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the license term. The Company records revenue from royalty agreements in the period in which the royalty is earned. Promotional products given to customers or potential customers are recognized as a cost of sales. Cash incentives provided to customers are recognized as a reduction of the related sale price, and, therefore, are a reduction in sales. Reserve for sales returns and warranty liability For product sales, the Company records revenue, net of estimated returns and discounts, when delivery has occurred, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. The Company’s return policy allows end users and retailers rights to return purchased products. In addition, the Company generally provides the ultimate consumer a warranty with each product. Due to the nature of the invisibleSHIELD product line, returns for the invisibleSHIELD are generally not salvageable and are not included in inventory. The Company estimates a reserve for sales returns and warranty and record the estimated reserve amount as a reduction of sales, and as a sales return reserve liability. When product is returned and is expected to be resold, as is the case with returns of keyboard, audio, case, and power products, the reserve is recorded as a reduction of revenues and cost of sales, and as a sales return reserve liability. The sales returns and warranty reserve requires management to make estimates regarding return rates for sales and warranty returns. Historical experience, actual claims, and customer return rights are the key factors used in determining the estimated sales return and warranty reserve. The following summarizes the activity in the Company’s sales return and warranty liability for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011: Income taxes The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when differences are expected to be settled or realized. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realizable in the future. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. For the Year Ended December 31, 2013 2012 2011 Balance at beginning of year $ 6,697 $ 5,387 $ 2,068 iFrogz sales reserve at acquisition — — 524 Additions charged to sales 12,194 12,954 12,906 Sales returns & warranty claims charged against reserve (11,019 ) (11,644 ) (10,111 ) Balance at end of year $ 7,872 $ 6,697 $ 5,387 F-13  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records estimated interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if any, as a component of income tax provision. The Company has foreign subsidiaries formed or acquired to conduct or support its business outside the United States. The Company does not provide for U.S. income taxes on undistributed earnings for its foreign subsidiaries as the foreign earnings will be permanently reinvested in such foreign jurisdictions. Stock-based compensation The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated financial statements for awards granted to employees and non-employees, which include restricted stock, stock options, and warrants. Equity-classified awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of restricted stock is measured on the grant date based on the quoted closing market price of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the stock options is measured on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on the underlying common stock closing price as of the date of grant, the expected term, stock price volatility, and risk-free interest rates . The Company recognizes compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the award. No compensation cost is ultimately recognized for awards for which employees do not render the requisite service and are forfeited. Excess tax benefits of awards that are recognized in equity related to stock option exercises are reflected as financing cash inflows. Advertising and marketing General advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising allowances provided to retailers are recorded as an expense at the time of the related sale if the Company receives an identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration and has evidence of fair value for the advertising; otherwise, the allowance is recorded as a reduction of revenue. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $8,952, $12,495 and $10,246, respectively. Foreign currency translation and transactions The Company’s primary operations are at the parent level which uses the U.S. dollar (USD) as its functional currency. The Euro is the functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Accordingly, assets and liabilities for these subsidiaries are translated into USD using exchange rates in effect at the end of each period. Revenue and expenses for these subsidiaries are translated using rates that approximate those in effect during the period. Gains and losses from these translations are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income as a component of other income and (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations and totaled ($7), ($17) and $60 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Earnings per share Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income attributable to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into common stock. The dilutive effect of stock options or other common stock equivalents is calculated using the treasury stock method. F-14  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to calculate basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011: For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, restricted stock, warrants and stock options to purchase 620, 169, and 103 shares of common stock, respectively, were not considered in calculating diluted earnings per share because the warrant or stock option exercise prices or the total expected proceeds under the treasury stock method for the warrants, restricted stock, or stock options was greater than the average market price of common shares during the period and, therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive. Recent accounting pronouncements In November 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists . ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss (NOL) carryforward, or similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward, rather than as a liability when (1) the uncertain tax position would reduce the NOL or other carryforward under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction and (2) the entity intends to use the deferred tax asset for that purpose. The ASU does not require new recurring disclosures. The ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company will implement the provisions of ASU 2011-11 as of January 1, 2014, and is still evaluating the impact on the Company’s financial statements. (2) ACQUISITION OF IFROGZ On June 21, 2011, the Company, Reminderband Inc. dba iFrogz (“iFrogz”), and the owners of iFrogz entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which ZAGG acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of iFrogz. The Company purchased iFrogz for total consideration of $50,000 in cash and 4,444 shares of ZAGG common stock. The value of the shares of the Company’s common stock used in determining the purchase price was $12.60 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on June 21, 2011. 2,222 of the shares issued were subject to a 12-month “lock-up” transfer restriction following the date of acquisition and, therefore, the fair value of these shares was determined considering the restriction resulting in a discount of 20.0% from the closing share price. This 12-month “lock-up” transfer restriction following the date of acquisition in accordance with SEC Rule 144 expired on June 21, 2012. The other 2,222 shares issued were subject to a 6-month “lock-up” transfer restriction that expired on December 21, 2011. The fair value of these shares was determined considering the restriction resulting in a discount of 15.0% from the closing share price. 2013 2012 2011 Net income attributable to stockholders $ 4,790 $ 14,505 $ 18,248 Weighted average shares outstanding 30,900 30,339 27,133 Dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock, and warrants 559 1,317 1,949 Diluted shares 31,459 31,656 29,082 Earnings per share attributable to stockholders: Basic $ 0.16 $ 0.48 $ 0.67 Dilutive $ 0.15 $ 0.46 $ 0.63 F-15  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The following summarizes the components of the purchase price: Value of ZAGG shares issued: The total purchase price of $96,200 was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. Fair values assigned were based on reasonable methods applicable to the nature of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase consideration: As part of the acquisition of iFrogz, the Company incurred legal, accounting, and other due diligence fees that were expensed when incurred. Total fees incurred related to the acquisition of iFrogz for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, were $1,947, which were included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. No expenses were incurred in 2012 or 2013. Identifiable Intangible Assets Classes of acquired intangible assets include customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements, and other intangibles. The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets was determined using various valuation methods, including the income and market approaches. For assets valued under the income approach, the estimate of the present value of expected future cash flows for each identifiable asset was based on discount rates which incorporate a risk premium to take into account the risks inherent in those expected cash flows. The expected cash flows were estimated using available historical data adjusted based on the Company’s historical experience and the expectations of market participants. The market approach was utilized to determine appropriate royalty rates applied to the valuation of the trademarks and patents. The amounts assigned to each class of intangible asset and the related weighted average amortization periods are as follows: As is discussed in Note 7, the iFrogz and EarPollution trademarks were originally recorded as an indefinite-lived intangible asset as presented in the table above. However, management concluded that the trademarks should be considered definite-lived assets due to changes in brand strategy in the fourth quarter of 2012 (EarPollution) and the fourth quarter of 2013 (iFrogz). ZAGG shares issued with 6-month restriction $ 23,800 ZAGG shares issued with 12-month restriction 22,400 46,200 Cash consideration 50,000 Total $ 96,200 Cash and cash equivalents $ 2,469 Trade receivables ($5,880 contractual gross receivables) 5,832 Inventories 14,962 Prepaid expenses 579 Property and equipment 2,078 Deposits 138 Definite-lived identifiable intangible assets 49,900 Indefinite-lived identifiable intangible assets 25,100 Goodwill 6,925 Current liabilities (11,783 ) Total $ 96,200 Intangible asset class Weighted-average amortization period Customer relationships $ 41,500 8.0 years Trademarks (indefinite-lived) 25,100 Indefinite Trademarks (definite-lived) 3,500 9.7 years Non-compete agreements 4,100 4.8 years Other 800 3.8 years Total $ 75,000 F-16  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the iFrogz purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill acquired in the acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes and is being amortized over a period of 15 years. As is discussed in Note 7, the Company recorded impairments to goodwill during the fourth quarter of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2013. Results of Operations For the year ended December 31, 2011, iFrogz contributed net sales of $36,046 and net loss before tax of $1,461 to the consolidated statement of operations. (3) INVENTORIES Inventory consisted of the following components: In addition, included in prepaid expenses and other current assets were inventory deposits with third-party manufacturers at December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $735 and $8,034, respectively. (4) ASSET PURCHASE CREDITS The Company entered into a nonmonetary exchange transaction with Argent Trading Inc. (“Argent”) during the second quarter of 2011 whereby the Company transferred inventory with a carrying value of $986 to Argent in exchange for asset purchase credits with a face value of $1,350. The credits can be used for the purchase of goods or services from certain vendors until March 1, 2016, when the unused asset purchase credits expire. The Company accounted for this nonmonetary transaction based on the fair value of the inventory transferred as the inventory’s fair value was more clearly evident than fair value of the asset purchase credits. The Company determined that the inventory had a fair value of $785 at the date of the transfer and thus recorded an impairment loss on the inventory of $201, which was recorded as a component of cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations during the second quarter of 2011. On May 2, 2012, the Company assigned these credits to a supplier in exchange for discounts on future purchases of products from the supplier. Management expects the discounts received to at least equal the value of the asset purchase credits assigned and will be realized over approximately a three-year period. Despite the change in character, the Company continues to classify these assets within prepaid expenses and other current assets, and noncurrent other assets on the consolidated balance sheet based on when the discounts are expected to be realized. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, management utilized $275 and $184, respectively, of the assets. Total discounts utilized at December 31, 2013 total $459. December 31, 2013 2012 Finished goods $ 40,992 $ 34,690 Raw materials 3,547 5,298 Total inventory $ 44,539 $ 39,988 F-17  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) (5) INVESTMENT IN HzO HzO, Inc. (“HzO”) is a private company engaged in the development of water-blocking technologies for consumer and industrial applications. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company accounted for its investment in HzO under the equity method of accounting by recognizing ZAGG’s share of the earnings or losses of HzO in the periods in which they are reported by HzO in its separate financial statements, adjusted for the amortization of the basis difference between the Company’s investment in HzO and the Company’s underlying share in the net assets of HzO. During the fourth quarter of 2013, HzO raised $10,112 in additional equity capital through the sale of 39,205 additional Series B Preferred Shares. ZAGG did not participate in the capital raise, the result of which was to reduce ZAGG’s ownership interest in HzO to 15.3% at December 31, 2013. As ZAGG cannot exercise significant influence over HzO and its ownership interest is below 20.0%, the Company now accounts for the investment in HzO as a cost method investment. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded a loss from investment in HzO of $2,013 and $2,866, respectively. The loss from investment in HzO was recorded as a component of other expense in the consolidated statement of operations in each respective period. The carrying value of the investment at December 31, 2013 was $0 due to the accumulated losses. (6) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consisted of the following: (7) GOODWILL & INTANGIBLE ASSETS Impairment of Goodwill For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded impairments of goodwill in the amounts of $1,484 and $5,441, respectively, when it was determined that the carrying value of goodwill exceeded its fair value. The determination was made during the impairment analyses performed during the fourth quarters of 2013 and 2012. In conjunction with the impairment tests, the Company considered factors such as the overall decline in the market price of the Company’s stock, a decline in market capitalization for a sustained period, and a decline in forecasted operations as indicators for potential goodwill impairment. In determining the amount of impairments within the analyses in 2013 and 2012, we considered both the income approach, utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis, and market approach, which considers what other purchasers and sellers in the market have paid for companies reasonably similar to the reporting unit. The goodwill impairments are included as a component of impairment of goodwill and intangibles in the consolidated statement of operations.

This was highlighted by the decision to brand the line of gaming controllers as ZAGG products instead of under the iFrogz brand, which was the original product branding. As a result of this decision, we determined that future cash flows under the iFrogz trademark likely will be less than previously estimated and that the trademark should be considered a definite-lived intangible asset. Management incorporated this information into an impairment analysis performed during the fourth quarter of 2013, relying on a discounted cash flow analysis and market approach. Management determined the carrying amount of the trademark exceeded the fair value and an impairment charge of $9,762 was recorded at December 31, 2013 as a component of the goodwill and impairment line in the consolidated statement of operations . As the trademark is now considered a definite-lived intangible, management will commence amortizing the trademark over a ten-year useful life on an accelerated basis consistent with the projected future cash flows from the trademark. Future amortization of this trademark is included in the estimated future amortization table below in this Note. During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company determined that future cash flows under the EarPollution trademark likely will be less than previously estimated and that the trademark should be considered a definite-lived intangible asset. Management performed an impairment analysis during the fourth quarter of 2012, relying on a discounted cash flow analysis and market approach, and determined that the carrying amount of the trademark exceeded the fair value and an impairment charge of $5,917 was recorded at December 31, 2012 as a component of the goodwill and impairment line in the consolidated statement of operations . As the trademark was considered a definite-lived intangible, management commenced amortizing the trademark over an eight-year period on an accelerated basis consistent with the projected future cash flows from the trademark. Amortization of this intangible commenced in the first quarter of 2013. 2013 2012 Balance as of January 1 Gross goodwill $ 6,925 $ 6,925 Accumulated impairment losses (5,441 ) — Net goodwill as of January 1 1,484 6,925 Goodwill acquired during the year — — Impairment loss (1,484 ) (5,441 ) Balance as of December 31 Gross goodwill 6,925 6,925 Accumulated impairment losses (6,925 ) (5,441 ) Net goodwill as of December 31 $ — $ 1,484 December 31, 2013 2012 iFrogz trademark prior to impairment $ 16,800 $ 16,800 iFrogz trademark impairment (9,762 ) — iFrogz trademark – definite-lived $ 7,038 $ 16,800 December 31 2012 EarPollution trademark prior to impairment $ 8,300 EarPollution trademark impairment (5,917 ) EarPollution trademark – definite-lived $ 2,383 F-19  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company wrote-off $139 in internally developed software acquired in the iFrogz acquisition as it was abandoned in December 2012. The charge is included as a component of the goodwill and impairment line in the consolidated statement of operations. Definite-lived Intangibles Definite-lived intangibles as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, were as follows: Customer relationships, trademarks, and other intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis consistent with their expected future cash flows over their estimated useful life, which results in accelerated amortization. The remaining definite-lived intangible assets are amortized using the straight line method over their estimated useful life. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 amortization expense was $9,702, $9,801, and $4,921, respectively. Amortization expense was primarily recorded as a component of operating expense, however, amortization expense related to acquired technology in 2013, 2012, and 2011 of $82, $69, and $972, respectively, was recorded as a component of cost of sales. On September 4, 2013, the Company acquired a patent pursuant to an Amended Asset Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to transfer consideration of $500 in cash and 500 shares of ZAGG restricted common stock to acquire the patent, which protects elements of the Company’s invisibleSHIELD product line. The patent was recorded based on the fair value of the consideration transferred on the date of the Purchase Agreement. The components of consideration included the following items: As of December 31, 2013 Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Write-off of Fully Amortized Asset Transfers from Indefinite-life Classification Net Carrying Amount Weighted Average Amortization Period Customer relationships $ 41,500 $ (17,537 ) $ — $ — $ 23,963 8.0 years Non-compete agreements 4,100 (2,169 ) — — 1,931 4.8 years Other Trademarks 3,500 (1,719 ) — — 1,781 9.7 years iFrogz Trademark — — — 7,038 7,038 10.0 years EarPollution Trademark 2,383 (554 ) — — 1,829 8.0 years Other 661 (487 ) (61 ) — 113 5.0 years Acquired technology 709 (165 ) — — 544 7.0 years Internet address 124 (66 ) — — 58 10.0 years Patents 4,696 (734 ) — — 3,962 12.5-14.0 years Total amortizable assets $ 57,673 $ (23,431 ) $ (61 ) $ 7,038 $ 41,219 8.4 years As of December 31, 2012 Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Write-off Transfers from Indefinite-life Classification Net Carrying Amount Weighted Average Amortization Period Customer relationships $ 41,500 $ (10,291 ) $ — $ — $ 31,209 8.0 years Non-compete agreements 4,100 (1,389 ) — — 2,711 4.8 years Other Trademarks 3,500 (1,105 ) — — 2,395 9.7 years EarPollution Trademark — — — 2,383 2,383 8.0 years Other 800 (446 ) (139 ) — 215 5.0 years Acquired technology 564 (83 ) — — 481 7.0 years Internet address 124 (53 ) — — 71 10.0 years Patents 2,063 (423 ) — — 1,640 14.0 years Total amortizable assets $ 52,651 $ (13,790 ) $ (139 ) $ 2,383 $ 41,105 8.0 years Restricted common stock $ 2,275 Cash consideration 500 Acquisition costs 2 Total $ 2,777 F-20  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Management valued the restricted common stock utilizing the stock price on September 4, 2013, also taking into consideration the six-month transfer restriction attached to the stock and the Company’s guarantee of the transaction date value of the restricted common stock when the stock becomes free-trading in March 2014. As the guarantee represents a put feature, management valued the put feature utilizing the Black-Scholes model to be $330 and classified that amount as a liability on the date of the Purchase Agreement. This liability will be marked to fair value each reporting period until settled with the change in fair value being recorded through the consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a reduction in the fair value of the liability of $53 and a corresponding benefit to other expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Estimated future amortization expense is as follows: Indefinite-lived Intangibles The gross carrying amount of indefinite-lived intangibles as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows: (8) INCOME TAXES The components of income tax (provision) benefit for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, are: 2014 $ 9,813 2015 8,560 2016 7,125 2017 5,649 Thereafter 10,072 Total $ 41,219 December 31, 2013 Gross Carrying Amount Impairment Transfers to Definite-life Classification Net Carrying Amount iFrogz trademark $ 16,800 $ (9,762 ) $ (7,038 ) $ — EarPollution trademark — — — — Total non-amortizable assets $ 16,800 $ (9,762 ) $ (7,038 ) $ — December 31, 2012 Gross Carrying Amount Impairment Transfers to Definite-life Classification Net Carrying Amount iFrogz trademark $ 16,800 $ — $ — $ 16,800 EarPollution trademark 8,300 (5,917 ) (2,383 ) — Total non-amortizable assets $ 25,100 $ (5,917 ) $ (2,383 ) $ 16,800 2013 2012 2011 Current (provision): Federal $ (8,720 ) $ (15,466 ) $ (11,487 ) State (766 ) (2,104 ) (1,767 ) Foreign — (116 ) (72 ) Total current (9,486 ) (17,686 ) (13,326 ) Deferred (provision) benefit: Federal 5,036 7,209 3,402 State 755 1,084 506 Foreign — — — Total deferred 5,791 8,293 3,908 Total (provision) benefit $ (3,695 ) $ (9,393 ) $ (9,418 ) F-21  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The following is a reconciliation of the income taxes computed using the federal statutory rate to the provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011: The tax effects of temporary differences that gave rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2013 and 2012, are as follows: The Company recorded a full valuation allowance against a deferred tax asset generated by losses on its investment in HzO. HzO is a development stage enterprise and given current operations and uncertainty of future profitability, management has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realizable. Given this, a full valuation allowance at December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $1,483 and $713, respectively, has been recorded against the deferred tax asset. In addition, at December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets resulting from capital loss carry-overs as the Company determined that it was unlikely the capital loss carry-overs would be able to be utilized. 2013 2012 2011 Tax at statutory rate (35%) $ (2,970 ) $ (8,364 ) $ (9,451 ) State tax, net of federal tax benefit 25 (663 ) (888 ) Gain on deconsolidation of HzO — — 316 Non-deductible expense and other 428 (341 ) (130 ) Domestic production activities deduction 331 676 771 Return to provision adjustment (148 ) (49 ) (36 ) Liquidation of iFrogz EU 5 — — Reserve related to FIN 48 (382 ) — — Interest and penalties (32 ) — — Increase in valuation allowance (952 ) (652 ) — $ (3,695 ) $ (9,393 ) $ (9,418 ) 2013 2012 Deferred tax assets: Allowance for doubtful accounts $ 958 $ 1,020 Deferred revenue 38 27 Inventories 3,211 2,317 Stock-based compensation 1,464 1,420 Sales returns accrual 2,943 2,456 Acquisition costs, net of amortization 252 282 Intangible assets 8,320 4,372 Goodwill 2,192 1,801 HzO investment 1,483 713 Capital loss carry-over 271 — Reserve on note receivable 569 569 Other liabilities 39 38 Deferred tax assets 21,740 15,015 Valuation allowance (1,753 ) (713 ) Total deferred tax assets $ 19,987 $ 14,302 Deferred tax liabilities: Property and equipment 693 794 Total gross deferred tax liabilities 693 794 Net deferred tax assets $ 19, 294 $ 13,508 Deferred tax assets, net – current $ 7,917 $ 6,912 Deferred tax assets, net – noncurrent 11,377 6,596 Net deferred tax assets $ 19,294 $ 13,508 F-22  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The Company has not recorded a tax benefit at December 31, 2012 for operating losses from operations in France (iFrogz Europe SAS) and the UK (ZAGG Europe). On a combined basis, the two entities had a gross cumulative operating loss of $1,280 at December 31, 2012. Operations for iFrogz Europe SAS and ZAGG Europe were transitioned to Ireland and therefore, we do not expect future taxable income within France or the UK to offset net operating losses. ZAGG Europe was liquidated and the entity closed during 2012. In addition, iFrogz Europe SAS was liquidated and the entity closed during the fourth quarter of 2013. For all other deferred tax assets, no valuation allowance has been recorded at December 31, 2013 and 2012, as management believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize its deferred tax assets. The Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability for the undistributed earnings of its foreign operations that arose in 2013 and prior years as the Company considers these earnings to be indefinitely reinvested. Cash held by foreign entities that is considered permanently re-invested totaled $3,361 as of December 31, 2013. If this cash were repatriated to the United States, outside the settlement of intercompany payables or payment of intercompany royalties, the Company would need to accrue and pay the related tax. However, the Company considers these funds permanently re-invested and has no plans to repatriate these funds. The Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the financial statements if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded a tax contingency of $460 and $61, respectively. The tax contingencies are primarily related to the Companies global tax strategy and certain transactions in foreign jurisdictions in prior periods. These tax contingencies, on a gross basis, are reconciled in the table below: As of December 31, 2013, the Company's liability related to unrecognized tax benefits was $460 of which $443 would impact the Company's effective tax rate if recognized. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company recorded $32, $0, and $0, respectively, in each year in interest and penalties. The Company is currently not under examination by any federal or state tax authority, but remains subject to income tax examinations for each of its open tax years, which extend back to 2010 for federal income tax purposes and 2009 for state income tax purposes. (9) STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS In 2007, the Company’s board of directors adopted and in 2008 the Company’s shareholders approved the ZAGG Incorporated 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan was amended to increase the number of shares issuable under the 2007 Plan to 10,000. As of December 31, 2012, there were 6,161 shares available for grant under the 2007 Plan. On January 15, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and in June 2013, the Company’s shareholders approved the ZAGG Inc 2013 Equity Incentive Award Plan (the “2013 Plan”), a new equity incentive plan intended to replace the 2007 Plan. The 2013 Plan is an “omnibus plan” under which stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance share awards, restricted stock, and restricted stock units can be awarded. The 2013 Plan’s initial share reservation is 5,000 shares. The term of the plan is for 10 years from the date of its adoption. As of December 31, 2013, there were approximately 4,464 shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan. 2013 2012 Unrecognized tax benefits, as of January 1 $ 61 $ 61 Gross increases – tax positions in current period 399 — Total (provision) benefit $ 460 $ 61 F-23  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Upon adoption of the 2013 Plan in January 2013, the Company ceased to grant awards pursuant to the 2007 Plan. All future awards will be granted under the 2013 Plan. All awards that are outstanding under the 2007 Plan will continue to vest, be exercisable, and expire according to their respective terms. Common Stock Options Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant; those option awards generally vest based on three years of continuous service and have five-year contractual terms. The fair value of stock options has been estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. No stock options were granted during 2012 or 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2011 the following assumptions were used in determining the fair value of option grants: The Company determines the expected term of its stock option awards by using the simplified method, which assumes each vesting tranche of the award has a term equal to the midpoint between when the award vests and when the award expires. Expected volatility is calculated by weighting the Company’s historical stock price to calculate expected volatility over the expected term of each grant. If the Company’s historical stock price history does not cover the entire expected term, expected volatility is also weighted based on the average historical volatility of similar entities with publicly traded shares over the expected term of each grant. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of each option granted is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a period that approximates the expected term of the option. The following table summarizes the stock option activity for the Company’s stock incentive plans for the year ended December 31, 2013: The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 was $0, $0, and $4.98, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, was $540, $3,555, and $8,170, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, there was $29 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under the stock incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.2 years. The total grant date fair value of shares vested during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, was $593, $1,060, and $2,638, respectively. 2011 Expected dividend yield 0.0 % Risk-free interest rate 1.21 % Expected term (years) 3.5 years Expected volatility 90.59 % Options Weighted- Average Exercise Price Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term Aggregate Intrinsic Value (In thousands) (Per share) (In years) (In thousands) Outstanding at December 31, 2012 671 $ 3.70 2.1 Granted — — Exercised (145 ) 2.40 Forfeited/expired (87) 4.69 Outstanding at December 31, 2013 439 $ 3.93 1.2 $ 186 Exercisable at December 31, 2013 410 $ 3.61 1.2 $ 303 F-24  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The Company recorded share-based compensation expense only for those options that are expected to vest. The estimated fair value of the stock options is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the award. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense of $280, $1,008 and $2,640, respectively, which is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expense. The net tax benefit recognized on equity-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $88, $181, and $28, respectively. The tax benefit realized from stock options exercised for the year ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $88, $599, and $1,838, respectively. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company incurred an incremental charge of $154 that was the direct result of the Separation and Release of Claims Agreement (“Separation Agreement”) between the Company and Robert G. Pedersen II, the Company’s former chief executive officer. Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Pedersen’s 32 unvested stock options continued to vest under the original terms of the option grant. However, because future services to be performed by Mr. Pedersen were not considered substantive under US GAAP, the options were re-measured and the expense associated with these options was accelerated. In addition, the Company incurred a $910 charge during the third quarter of 2012 related to consulting fees due to Mr. Pedersen under the Separation Agreement, which were payable in monthly installments over the one-year term of the Separation Agreement. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company incurred a charge of $1,560 related to the modification of a previously granted stock option, which is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses and additional paid in capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements (see Note 11, Note Receivable). Warrants - During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company issued warrants to purchase common shares for investor relations consulting services of 0, 50, and 50, respectively. The 2013, 2012, and 2011 warrants are exercisable at $0, $9.02 and $9.05, respectively. The warrants expire five years from the grant date and were fully vested on the date of grant. The grants were independently valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with separate assumptions for each tranche based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on each vesting date, expected term equal to the remaining contractual term on each vesting date, expected volatility weighted between the Company’s historical volatility and the average historical volatility of similar entities with publicly traded shares over the expected term for each vesting date, and risk-free rate for the expected term based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect with a period that approximates the remaining contractual term for each vesting date. For the year ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company recorded expense of $0, $311, and $377, respectively, for these warrants. The fair value of warrants has been estimated as of the vesting date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 the following assumptions were used in determining the fair value: 2012 2011 Expected dividend yield 0.0 % 0.0 % Risk-free interest rate 0.81 % 2.02 % Expected term (years) 5.0 years 4.86 years Expected volatility 89.50 % 90.71 % F-25  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The following table summarizes the warrant activity for the year ended December 31, 2013: The weighted-average and grant-date or vest-date fair value of warrants granted during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, was $0, $6.46, and $6.46, respectively. The total intrinsic value of warrants exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, was $0, $4,195, and $3,302, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, there was $0 of total unrecognized estimated compensation cost related to nonvested warrants granted. The total fair value of warrants vested during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 was $0, $311, and $377, respectively. For warrants that are compensatory, the Company records share-based compensation expense related to warrants only for warrants that have vested. The amount of the expense recognized is based on the estimated fair value of the warrants on the vesting date. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense related to warrants of $0, $311, and $377, respectively, which is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expense. The net tax benefit recognized on equity-based compensation expense related to warrants for the year ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $0, $119, and $144, respectively. The tax benefit realized from compensatory warrants exercised for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $0, $114, and $0, respectively. Restricted Stock Restricted stock awards are granted with a fair value equal to the ending stock price on the date of grant. Prior to 2011, the Company had not granted any restricted stock. A summary of the status of the Company’s restricted stock as of December 31, 2013, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2013, is presented below: As of December 31, 2013, there was $1,245 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the stock incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.0 year. The Company recorded share-based compensation expense only for restricted stock that is expected to vest. The estimated fair value of the restricted stock awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the award. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense of $3,846, $4,699 and $624, respectively, which is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expense. The net tax benefit recognized on equity-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, was $1,458, $1,809 and $236, respectively. The tax benefit realized from vested restricted stock for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, was $1,042, $1,169 and $0, respectively.

These shares vested quarterly over a two year vesting term and were expensed on a straight-line basis over the two-year vesting term. In connection with the issuance of 124 shares of restricted stock, the Company issued the employee an additional 90 shares of common stock with a fair value of $899 as consideration in full satisfaction of current and future royalties under a prior intellectual property agreement primarily related to the ZAGGmate. The portion of the consideration related to current royalties was $336 and was included as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations in 2011. The remaining $563 portion of the consideration was capitalized as it represents a pre-payment of future royalties and will be amortized on an accelerated basis, consistent with the expected underlying cash flows of the intellectual property, over a seven year life. This capitalized amount is included as a component of intangible assets in the consolidated balance sheet. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company incurred an incremental charge of $345 that was the direct result of the Separation Agreement. In accordance with the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Pedersen’s 127 then unvested stock options became fully vested on August 17, 2013. However, under US GAAP, the expense associated with these options was accelerated as it was determined that the service to be performed by Mr. Pedersen was not considered to be substantive. During the year ended December 31, 2012, certain ZAGG employees received grants of restricted stock and elected to file an Internal Revenue Code Section 83(b) election and thereby elected to receive a net amount of shares in exchange for the Company incurring the tax liability for the grant date fair value of the award. In addition, certain ZAGG employees elected to receive a net amount of shares upon the vesting of a restricted stock grant in exchange for the Company incurring the tax liability for the fair value of the award on the vest date. This resulted in the Company recording $508 in compensation expense, with the offset being originally recorded to accrued wages and wage related expenses rather than to additional paid-in capital. During the year ended December 31, 2013, certain ZAGG employees elected to receive a net amount of shares upon the vesting of a restricted stock grant in exchange for the Company incurring the tax liability for the fair value of the award on the vest date. This resulted in the Company recording $257 in compensation expense, with the offset being originally recorded to accrued wages and wage related expenses rather than to additional paid-in capital. (10) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair Value of Financial Instruments At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, a note receivable, and a line of credit with Wells Fargo. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying value of the debt balances approximate fair value because the variable interest rates reflect current market rates. In addition, as discussed in Note 11, management records an impairment on the note receivable if the fair value of the underlying collateral is less than the carrying amount. Management determined the fair value of assets that collateralize the note receivable, which includes real property, interests in entities that own real property, and 80 shares of the Company’s stock that carry a restrictive legend until two months after the note receivable is paid in full. Management determined that the fair value of the collateral exceeded the carrying value of the note receivable at December 31, 2013. F-27  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Fair Value Measurements The Company measures at fair value certain financial and non-financial assets by using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are: Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs); and Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting unit to develop its own assumptions. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the following assets and liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the level of inputs shown (in thousands): Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements The Company also measures the fair value of certain assets on a non-recurring basis, generally quarterly, annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. These assets include goodwill, intangible assets, property and equipment, asset purchase credits, and collateral securing the note receivable. The following tables presents assets held as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using the level of inputs shown at the time of impairment (in thousands). As discussed in Note 7, at December 31, 2013, management performed an impairment analysis over each asset and ultimately recorded an impairment of goodwill of $1,484 and an impairment of the iFrogz trademark of $9,762. Thus, the balances in the table above reflect the fair value at December 31, 2013. The fair value of goodwill and the iFrogz trademark were determined using various valuation methods, including the income and market approaches. Under the income approach, the estimate of the present value of expected future cash flows was based on discount rates which incorporate a risk premium to take into account the risks inherent in those expected cash flows. The expected cash flows were estimated using available historical operating data projected into the future based on the Company’s current expectations. Various market approaches were utilized to determine appropriate royalty rates applicable to the valuation of the iFrogz trademark, to determine appropriate comparable company market multiples to estimate the value of the ZAGG Domestic reporting unit, and to estimate the overall value of the consolidated entity.

Thus, the balances in the table above reflect the fair value at December 31, 2012. The fair value of goodwill and the EarPollution trademark were determined using various valuation methods, including the income and market approaches. Under the income approach, the estimate of the present value of expected future cash flows was based on discount rates which incorporate a risk premium to take into account the risks inherent in those expected cash flows. The expected cash flows were estimated using available historical operating data projected into the future based on the Company’s current expectations. Various market approaches were utilized to determine appropriate royalty rates applicable to the valuation of the EarPollution trademark, to determine appropriate comparable company market multiples to estimate the value of the iFrogz reporting unit, and to estimate the overall value of the consolidated entity. In 2011, the note receivable (discussed in Note 11) was recorded at the fair value of the underlying collateral. Management considered the 80 shares of ZAGG common stock to be a Level 1 asset as quoted market prices exist. The real estate holdings were considered Level 2 assets as significant observable inputs exist for similar items in active markets. The investments in real estate companies, and private company preferred stock and warrants were considered Level 3 assets as the value was determined based on unobservable inputs. The fair value of the real estate companies was determined using the market approach and the key inputs were comparable properties and investments. The fair value of the private company preferred stock was determined using various valuation methods, including the income and market approaches. Under the income approach, the estimate of the present value of expected future cash flows was based on discount rates which incorporate a risk premium to take into account the risks inherent in those expected cash flows. The expected cash flows were estimated using available historical operating data projected into the future based on the Company’s current expectations. The market approach was utilized to determine appropriate comparable company market multiples to estimate the value of the entity and the Company’s investment in preferred stock. The fair value of the warrants to purchase private company preferred stock were calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model whereby estimates of volatility, the private company’s preferred stock value, and the risk-free rate were key inputs. The Company recorded impairment charges of $1,489 during the year ended December 31, 2011, related to the note receivable and the underlying collateral assets held as of December 31, 2011, measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Level 3 assets comprise $125 of the impairment charge. These impairment charges were recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the 2011 consolidated statement of operations. (11) NOTE RECEIVABLE In June 2008, Lorence Harmer became a member of the Company’s board of directors and in December 2009, was appointed as the chairman of the Audit Committee. Mr. Harmer introduced the Company to a consumer electronics product, which became known as the ZAGGbox. The ZAGGbox was intended to aggregate digital content such as music, pictures, videos, and movies into a single location so that users could share the content with most other networked media players, including mobile devices. After investigating the market opportunity for the ZAGGbox, the Company determined in June 2009 that it wished to obtain certain rights for the development and sale of the ZAGGbox in North America. The Company entered into negotiations with Teleportall, LLC (“Teleportall”), the owner of the technology used in the ZAGGbox, regarding production and distribution of the ZAGGbox. On June 17, 2009, the Company issued its initial purchase order for ZAGGbox units in the amount of $3,500 and advanced to Teleportall a total of $1,153 representing a $200 non-recurring engineering (NRE) fee and $953 in payment of 30% of the total purchase price for the units ordered by the Company. Mr. Harmer participated in the negotiations between the Company and Teleportall, and continued to represent the Company throughout 2009 and 2010 concerning the ZAGGbox. In May 2010, the Company entered into a Distribution and License Agreement with Teleportall, which memorialized Teleportall’s agreement to manufacture and deliver ZAGGboxes to the Company and appointed the Company as the exclusive distributor for the ZAGGbox in North American. Additionally, in May 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with Harmer Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), an affiliate of Mr. Harmer, under which Holdings agreed to repurchase unsold ZAGGboxes under certain circumstances.

However, Teleportall did not deliver the product in time for the 2009 Christmas selling season. Subsequently, during the December 1, 2009, meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company, Mr. Harmer disclosed to the other members of the Board that he owned an interest in Teleportall. After a discussion about his financial interest in Teleportall during that meeting, Mr. Harmer stated he was willing to divest himself of any ownership in Teleportall, and the Board of Directors voted unanimously to accept Mr. Harmer’s proposal that he would do so, and assumed thereafter that Mr. Harmer had completed his divestiture. The development of the product continued in 2010 with the expectation that the product would be delivered in time for the 2010 Christmas selling season. The Company made additional payments for long lead-time parts to Teleportall in the aggregate amount of $2,747. When it became obvious to the Company that the product would not be ready to market and sell during the 2010 Christmas season, the Company commenced discussions to restructure the Distribution and License Agreement with Teleportall. During the course of those discussions, the Company learned in January 2011 that Mr. Harmer did not divest himself of any interest in Teleportall following the December 2009 meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company where he agreed to do so, but retained an indirect ownership interest of 25% in Teleportall as well as other entities potentially affiliated with the ZAGGbox. As a result of the foregoing, the Company entered into an agreement with Teleportall, Mr. Harmer and several entities owned or controlled by Mr. Harmer (the “Harmer Agreement”), dated March 23, 2011, but subject to further negotiations and ratification through April 5, 2011. Pursuant to the Harmer Agreement, the parties agreed to terminate the Distribution and License Agreement on the following terms: • Mr. Harmer, Teleportall, and certain of their affiliates delivered a promissory note (the “Note”) dated March 23, 2011, to the Company in the original principal amount of $4,126 which accrues interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 4% per annum (adjusted quarterly) payable as follows: (i) interest only payments (a) on September 23, 2011, and (b) thereafter on or before the last day of each calendar quarter, (ii) 50% of the net profits of each ZAGGbox sale by Teleportall and its affiliates to be applied, first, to accrued interest and, second, to the principal balance of the Note, and (iii) the unpaid balance of principal and interest due in full on March 23, 2013. The principal amount of the Note is equal to the aggregate amount of the payments made by the Company to Teleportall plus the internal cost of the ZAGGbox project incurred by the Company. The Note is secured by certain real property, interests in entities that own real property and restricted and free-trading securities. • Teleportall and the Company entered into a License Agreement on March 23, 2011 under which the Company licensed to Teleportall the use of certain ZAGG names and trademarks to sell and distribute the ZAGGbox product. Teleportall agreed to pay ZAGG a 10% royalty on net sales of ZAGGboxes per calendar quarter as a license fee. • Teleportall and ZAGG entered into a non-exclusive, two year Commission Agreement on March 23, 2011, under which Teleportall could make introductions of many ZAGG products in all countries where ZAGG did not then have exclusive dealing agreements in respect of the marketing, distribution or sale of its products. The Commission Agreement provided that (a) it would automatically terminate concurrent with any uncured default under the Note, and (b) the term could be extended for an additional time period on reasonable terms if Teleportall’s introductions during the initial two-year term resulted in the purchase of no less than $25,000 of ZAGG products during the initial term. Payment terms of the Commission Agreement are as follows: F-30  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) No revenue has been recognized from Teleportall. As part of the Harmer Agreement, the Company modified a previously granted stock option award to Mr. Harmer, which resulted in a charge of $1,560 that was recorded in the second quarter of 2011. The charge was recorded in the second quarter of 2011 due to further negotiations and ratification on April 5, 2011. The further negotiations concerned the restricted legend placed on 80 shares of stock subject to repayment of the Note. The Note was originally accounted for under the cost recovery method and was originally included in the consolidated balance sheet at $3,900 which was the value of the ZAGGbox inventory advances. The original face value of the Note of $4,126 was for reimbursement of the inventory advances and other costs associated with the ZAGGbox and approximated fair value at March 23, 2011, as the variable interest rate on the Note approximated market rates. On September 20, 2011, and prior to the due date of the first interest-only payment due on the Note, Mr. Harmer and two of his affiliates, Holdings and Teleportall, filed a lawsuit in Utah state court against the Company, Robert G. Pedersen, II (ZAGG’s now-former CEO), Brandon T. O’Brien (ZAGG’s CFO) and KPMG LLP (ZAGG’s independent registered public accounting firm). KPMG and Messrs. Pedersen and O’Brien were subsequently dismissed from the lawsuit, as well as the plaintiff’s causes of action against the Company. In their lawsuit, the plaintiffs allege that the defendants defamed Mr. Harmer, breached the Harmer Agreement and interfered with other rights of the plaintiffs. The Company has responded to the plaintiffs’ claims, denying all of the material allegations made by the plaintiffs. The Company believes the plaintiffs’ claims to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. Subsequently, Mr. Harmer failed to make the required interest-only payment to the Company due on September 23, 2011. Mr. Harmer failed to cure the default and ZAGG commenced foreclosure on the collateral securing the loan, which consists of real property, interests in entities that own real property, and restricted and free-trading securities, which included 45 shares of ZAGG common stock. In addition to the collateral, Mr. Harmer had also agreed that he would not sell 80 shares of ZAGG common stock until two months after the Note was paid in full. Given the Note is full recourse, and the 80 shares have a restrictive legend associated with repayment of the Note, the Company believes it can recover the 80 shares in partial payment of the Note balance. Following Mr. Harmer’s default on the loan, management determined that it was probable that the Company would be unable to collect all amounts due from Mr. Harmer according to the terms of the Note. As the Note became collateral-dependent upon Mr. Harmer’s default, management engaged various third-party certified valuation specialists to assist management in its determination of the fair value of the collateral and whether it is sufficient to recover the Note balance. As of December 31, 2013, management determined that the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral was between $1,335 and $1,471. As management has not been able to ascertain whether Mr. Harmer owns 50% or 100% of Holdings, management used the low end of the above range ($1,335) and compared it to the carrying amount of the Note of $1,149. The remaining Note balance of $1,149 appears to be collectable given management’s best estimate of the cash recovery on the collateral securing the Note (fair value, less cost to sell) of $1,335. Additionally, the Company has classified $348 of the Note as an offset to equity, representing the collateral secured by ZAGG common stock, which management has taken steps to recover to repay the Note, as noted below. If a decrease in the amount of the Note classified as an offset to equity occurs as a result of a decrease in the stock price, the Company reclassifies the difference back to the Note to the extent that there is sufficient underlying collateral in excess of the book value. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company reclassified $218 and $0, respectively, from equity to the Note to reflect the decrease in the Company’s stock price. Ultimately, any recovery in excess of the carrying value of the Note will be recognized when realized. • 10.0% commission payments on orders received by the Company from retailers and distributors first introduced to the Company by Teleportall during the first 60 days after the introduction is made (the “ Load-in Period ”) to be split 50/50 between cash to Teleportall and principal payments on the Note. However, all commission payments will be paid to ZAGG if Teleportall is in breach of the terms of the Note or any other agreements between the parties; • 3.0% commission on all orders within the first 24 months after the Load-in Period, and 2.0% thereafter, from retailers and distributors first introduced to the Company as described under the terms set forth in the preceding bullet point. The 3.0% and 2.0% commissions will be split 50/50 between cash to Teleportall and principal payments on the Note; and • 3.0% commission on all orders generated in countries where Teleportall is paid commission under the terms of the preceding two bullet points (excluding the United States), regardless of Teleportall’s involvement in ZAGG’s receipt of the order until the first to occur of (i) payment in full of the Note, (ii) termination of the Commission Agreement or (iii) 24 months after the applicable Load-in Period. F-31  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) The Company determined the fair values of the collateral of the Note, which required estimates and assumptions. Management determined the value of the 80 shares of ZAGG common stock held by Mr. Harmer based on quoted market prices. The real estate holdings were valued primarily based on the sales comparison approach as sales of comparable properties were utilized. The investments in real estate companies were valued utilizing comparable market sales, a discounted cash flow analysis, and other valuation methodologies management deemed to be appropriate. Since the Note became collateral dependent in October 2011, management has (1) foreclosed and sold 45 shares of ZAGG common stock for $496 (December 2011); (2) foreclosed on real property valued at $250 (January 2012); and (3) foreclosed on stock and warrants in a private company of $516 (May 2012). These foreclosures were recorded as a reduction to the Note in the period in which the foreclosure occurred. Management continues to actively pursue the foreclosure of all remaining collateral. At December 31, 2013, the total unpaid principle balance, including accrued interest, late fees and costs incurred in collection, totaled $4,202. (12) DEBT AND LETTERS OF CREDIT Wells Fargo Revolving Line of Credit Facility On December 20, 2013, the Company and Wells Fargo, entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (“Amendment”), which modifies the original Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) entered into between the Company and Wells Fargo on December 7, 2012. The Amendment retains the $60,000 revolving line of credit facility (“Line of Credit”) and extends the maturity date from December 1, 2014 to December 1, 2015. At the time of the Amendment, the $18,000 outstanding on the original $24,000 term loan was paid in full utilizing proceeds from the Line of Credit. In addition, the Line of Credit includes a letter of credit sub-feature that allows the Company to issue standby commercial letters of credit against the Line of Credit, not to exceed at any time an aggregate of $5.0 million. During 2013 and 2012, the Company has not issued any standby commercial letters of credit. As consideration for entering into the Amendment, the Company agreed to pay to Wells Fargo an amendment fee of $30 as well as reasonable legal and collateral examination fees. Borrowings and repayments under the Line of Credit may occur from time to time in the Company’s ordinary course of business through December 1, 2015. Any outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit mature and are due on December 1, 2015. The outstanding principal balance under the Line of Credit bears interest at a fluctuating rate per annum determined to be the sum of the (1) LIBOR margin established under the Credit Agreement (with the initial LIBOR margin being set at 1.25%) and (2) Daily Three Month LIBOR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in effect from time to time. Each change in the rate of interest will become effective on each business day on which a change in Daily Three Month LIBOR is announced by Wells Fargo. F-32  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, Wells Fargo will adjust the LIBOR margin used to determine the rate of interest under the Line of Credit on a quarterly basis, commencing with the Company’s fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2013. The applicable Libor margin is calculated based on the Company's ratio of Total Liabilities to Tangible Net Worth (as these terms are defined in the Credit Agreement) in accordance with the following table: Under the Line of Credit, each such adjustment will be effective on the first business day of the Company’s fiscal quarter following the quarter during which Wells Fargo receives and reviews the Company’s most current fiscal quarter-end financial statements in accordance with the requirements established in the Credit Agreement. In addition, under the Amendment the Company agreed to pay Wells Fargo a quarterly fee based on the average unused amount of the Line of Credit depending on the Company’s Leverage Ratio (which term is defined in the Credit Agreement as Total Liabilities divided by Tangible Net Worth) based on the following table: For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, $73 and $4, respectively, in unused line fees had been incurred and was included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations. At December 31, 2013, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit was 1.00%. At December 31, 2012, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings under the Line of Credit and Term Loan was 1.63%. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the effective interest rate was 1.11% and 2.31%, respectively. The Company originally incurred and capitalized $238 of direct costs related to the establishment of the Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company amortized $120 and $8, respectively of these loan costs, which is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations. In conjunction with the closing of the Amendment, the Company incurred $43 in additional direct costs related to the issuance of the Amendment because the borrowing capacity was expanded and wrote-off $27 in previously capitalized costs related to the Term Loan. The write-off of these costs was recorded as a component of interest expense. The Company amortizes these deferred loan costs under the effective interest rate method. The carrying value of deferred loan costs at December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $126 and $230, respectively, and is included as a component of noncurrent other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. Attached to the Credit Agreement are a number of financial and non-financial debt covenants. At December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all covenants associated with the Credit Agreement. Mandatory payments under the Credit Agreement are presented in the following table: Total Liabilities to Tangible Net Worth Applicable LIBOR Margin 1.00 or greater 1.25 % .65 or greater, but less than 1.00 1.00 % Less than .65 0.75 % Leverage Ratio Applicable Unused Commitment Fee (per annum) 1.00 or greater 0.35 % .65 or greater, but less than 1.0 0 0.25 % Less than .65 0.15 % Mandatory Payments 2014 $ — 2015 17,543 Total $ 17,543 F-33  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) PNC & Cerberus Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility On June 21, 2011, and in conjunction with the acquisition of iFrogz, the Company entered into a financing agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) led by Cerberus Business Finance, LLC (“Cerberus”) and PNC Bank National Association (“PNC”), which was acting as the administrative bank. The Financing Agreement consisted of a $45,000 term loan (“Cerberus Term Loan”), a $45,000 revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”), and a $5,000 letter of credit facility, which was a subset of the $45,000 Revolving Credit Facility. The Company’s obligations under the Financing Agreement were secured by all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Cerberus Term Loan matured on June 20, 2016, and the Revolving Credit Facility and letters of credit matured on June 20, 2014. At December 31, 2011, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings was 7.25%. At December 31, 2011, the effective interest rate was 8.02%. There were no scheduled payments on either the Cerberus Term Loan or Revolving Credit Facility prior to maturity, though the Company made a $4,000 payment on the Cerberus Term Loan and a $23,000 payment on the Revolving Credit Facility during the first quarter of 2012. The Financing Agreement called for prepayment of the Cerberus Term Loan if certain conditions are met. The prepayment requirement commenced with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, and was calculated based on a percentage of “excess cash flow” as defined in the Financing Agreement. Payment was required to be made within ten days of issuing the year-end consolidated financial statements. Based on projections at December 31, 2011, the Company estimated that a prepayment of $2,372 would be required to be made during March 2012. This amount was classified as current in the consolidated balance sheet, while the remaining Cerberus Term Loan balance and Revolving Credit Facility balance was classified as noncurrent. Starting July 1, 2011, the Company began paying a commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility based on the average principal amount outstanding for the month compared to $45,000. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred $133 and $46, respectively, in commitment fees, which is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company incurred and capitalized $2,538 of direct costs related to the issuance of the Cerberus Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility. Of the total amount incurred, $1,699 was directly related to the Cerberus Term Loan and $839 was directly related to the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company amortized the deferred loan costs on the Cerberus Term Loan on the effective interest rate method and the deferred loan costs on the Revolving Credit Facility on a straight-line basis over the respective terms of the loan: the Term Loan was being amortized through June 20, 2016, and the Revolving Credit Facility through June 20, 2014. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company amortized $568 and $329, respectively, of these loan costs, which is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded additional amortization of $132 through interest expense due to the $4,000 payment on the Term Loan prior to maturity. As discussed above, on December 7, 2012, the Company paid off the entire outstanding balance on the Cerberus Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility, and the Financing Agreement with PNC and Cerberus was terminated. As this agreement was terminated, the Company wrote-off the remaining $1,509 balance of deferred loan costs during the fourth quarter of 2012, which is included as a component of interest expense on the consolidated statement of operations. In addition, the Company incurred a charge of $430 paid to PNC and Cerberus to terminate the credit agreement when the Company refinanced with Wells Fargo, which is classified as a component of interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

Future minimum rental payments required under the operating leases at December 31, 2013 are as follows: For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, rent expense was $1,564, $1,615 and $1,002, respectively. Rent expense is recognized on a basis which approximates straight line over the lease term. Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 was net of sublease income of $996, $751, and $0 respectively. Commercial Litigation Lorence A. Harmer, et al v ZAGG Inc et al, Third Judicial District Court, Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil No. 110917687 . On September 20, 2011, Lorence A. Harmer, a former director of ZAGG and two of his affiliates, Harmer Holdings, LLC, and Teleportall, LLC, filed a lawsuit against the Company, Robert G. Pedersen II, Brandon T. O’Brien, and KPMG LLP. KPMG was dismissed from the lawsuit in January 2012. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants defamed Mr. Harmer, breached a Settlement Agreement and other agreements between the plaintiffs (alleging claims for breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith, and fair dealing) and the Company, and interfered with other rights of the plaintiffs. The defendants denied all of the material allegations made by the plaintiffs. On October 29, 2012, the Company filed a Counterclaim and Third-Party Complaint against Harmer, Holdings, Teleportall and third-party Global Industrial Services Limited asserting claims for breach of contract, deficiency, indemnity and attorneys’ fees, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, quasi contract, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit and declaratory judgment. On June 10, 2013, the court dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims for defamation, negligence, tortious interference, and interference with prospective economic relations and all claims against Mr. Pedersen and Mr. O’Brien. The Company believes the plaintiffs’ remaining claims of breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and declaratory relief to be without merit and intends to continue to vigorously defend against them. The plaintiffs have not yet made a specific damages claim. ZAGG Inc v. Joseph Ramelli, Third Judicial District Court, Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil No. 120903188 . On May 10, 2012, ZAGG filed a lawsuit in Utah State Court against Joseph Ramelli (“Ramelli”), alleging causes of action for defamation and false light based on Ramelli’s authoring and causing to be published articles relating to ZAGG that contain false and defamatory statements. On October 17, 2013, ZAGG and Ramelli entered into a settlement agreement of ZAGG’s claims in the litigation. In the settlement agreement, Ramelli covenanted to never again make any comments whatsoever about ZAGG, or any person, entity, product or practice affiliated with ZAGG, and Ramelli provided a confession of judgment that can be enforced by ZAGG should Ramelli fail to perform any of his covenants under the agreement. Also, ZAGG and Ramelli exchanged mutual general releases. On October 22, 2013, the court entered an order dismissing the litigation. Patent/Trademark Litigation ZAGG Intellectual Property Holding Co. Inc. v. NLU Products et al, U.S. District Court, District of Utah, 2:11-cv-00517 . On June 7, 2011, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit against NLU Products, LLC; Wrapsol, LLC; XO Skins, LLC; Fusion of Ideas, Inc.; Clear-Coat, LLC; Case-Ari, LLC; United SGP Corp.; Stealth Guards; Vituorsity Products, LLC; Skinomi LLC; Cellairis; Best Skins Ever; Headco, LLC; and Ghost Armour, LLC that seeks to enforce rights under United States Patent No. 7,957,524. The defendants in this case have raised defenses and, in some cases, asserted counterclaims against the Company, that seek declarations of unenforceability or non-infringement of the patent. These counterclaims do not assert any claims for affirmative relief, including claims for damages, against the Company, apart from a request for an award of costs and attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party. NLU Products, LLC; Wrapsol, LLC; XO Skins, LLC; Fusion of Ideas, Inc.; Clear-Coat, LLC; Case-Ari, LLC; United SGP Corp.; Stealth Guards; and Vituorsity Products, LLC have settled with the Company. Litigation of this action was stayed pending a reexamination of United States Patent No. 7,957,524 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The reexamination led to amendments to the claims of the patent, and the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued a Reexamination Certificate. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these patent infringement claims, including disposition of the counterclaims, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. ZAGG v. TrekStor, Regional Court, Dusseldorf, Germany. In September 2011, the Company brought suit in Dusseldorf, Germany against TrekStor for infringement of ZAGG design registrations for the ZAGGmate keyboard case and for unfair competition. After the Company completed briefing of its claims against TrekStor and presented its case at oral argument, TrekStor filed a separate proceeding alleging that it is the owner of the ZAGGmate keyboard case design. The Company’s action against TrekStor was then stayed pending the resolution of TrekStor’s case against the Company. On July 23, 2013, TrekStor’s claims were dismissed and the Company was awarded its costs in that action. Although that decision has been appealed, the stay on the Company’s action against TrekStor has been lifted, the necessary bond has been posted, and the court will proceed to issue a decision regarding the Company’s claims. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of TrekStor’s appeal will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Fuhu Inc. et al v. ZAGG Inc et al, Central District of California, CV 13-06317 PA (SHx). The Company was a defendant in a lawsuit filed on August 28, 2013, (the “Fuhu I Case”) alleging trademark infringement, false designation of origin, trademark dilution, and copyright infringement based on the Company’s identification of the plaintiff’s product on packaging for an accessory designed for the plaintiff’s product. In March 2014, these claims were resolved by payment of an agreed amount to Fuhu and dismissal of the Fuhu I and Fuhu II Cases (see the description immediately below). 2014 $ 1,121 2015 778 2016 696 2017 302 Thereafter — Total $ 2,897 ZAGG Intellectual Property Holding Co.

The Company was the plaintiff in patent infringement litigation filed on December 16, 2013, (the “Fuhu II Case”) in Utah that sought to enforce rights under United States Patent No. 8,567,596. Fuhu raised defenses in the Fuhu II Case, but did not advance any counter claims. After the parties provided initial disclosures, in March 2014, these claims were resolved by payment of an agreed amount to ZAGG and dismissal of the Fuhu I and Fuhu II Cases (see also the description immediately above.) F-35  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) Class Action Lawsuits James H. Apple, et al. v. ZAGG Inc, et al., U.S. District Court, District of Utah, 2:12-cv-00852; Ryan Draayer, et al. v. Zagg Inc, et al., U.S. District Court, District of Utah, 2:12-cv-00859 . On September 6 and 10, 2012, two putative class action lawsuits were filed by purported Company shareholders against the Company, Randall Hales, Brandon O’Brien, and Cheryl Larabee, as well as Robert G. Pedersen II, the Company’s former Chairman and CEO, and Edward Ekstrom and Shuichiro Ueyama, former members of the Company’s Board of Directors. These lawsuits were subsequently amended by a complaint filed on May 6, 2013. The plaintiffs seek certification of a class of purchasers of the Company’s stock between October 15, 2010 and August 17, 2012. The plaintiffs claim that as a result of Mr. Pedersen's alleged December 2011 margin account sales, the defendants initiated a succession plan to replace Mr. Pedersen as the Company’s CEO with Mr. Hales, but failed to disclose either the succession plan or Mr. Pedersen's margin account sales, in violation of Sections 10(b), 14(a), and 20(a), and SEC Rules 10b-5 and 14a-9, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). On March 7, 2013, the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah (the “Court”) consolidated the Apple and Draayer actions and assigned the caption In re: Zagg, Inc. Securities Litigation , and on May 6, 2013, plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint. On July 5, 2013, the defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated complaint. On February 7, 2014, the Court entered an order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint. On February 25, 2014, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal. Arthur Morganstern v. Robert G. Pedersen II et al., Third Judicial District Court, Salt Lake County, State of Utah, Civil No. 120908452 ; Albert Pikk v. Robert G. Pedersen II et al., U.S. District Court, District of Utah, Case No. 2:12-cv-1188 ; Rosenberg v. Robert G. Pedersen II et al., U.S. District Court, District of Utah, Case No. 2:12-cv-1216 . On December 14, 2012, the first of three shareholder derivative complaints were filed against several of the Company’s current and former officers and directors. These complaints make allegations similar to those presented in the consolidated class action lawsuits, but they also assert various state law causes of action, including claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment, and insider trading. Each of these derivative complaints seek unspecified damages on behalf of the Company, which is named solely as a nominal defendant against whom no recovery is sought. On February 26, 2013, the Court consolidated the Pikk and Rosenberg actions and assigned the caption In re ZAGG Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation , and on June 5, 2013, plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint. The Company has not yet responded to these complaints. In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company received requests to provide documentation and information to the staff of the SEC in connection with a non-public investigation being conducted by the SEC’s Salt Lake City office. The Company believes the investigation includes a review of the facts and circumstances surrounding some of the same issues raised by the plaintiffs in the above lawsuits; specifically, whether the Company failed to disclose Mr. Pedersen's margin account sales or the alleged existence of a plan to have Mr. Hales succeed Mr. Pedersen as the Company’s CEO. The Company responded to these requests and is cooperating fully with the staff. The Company has chosen to disclose this non-public investigation due to the highly public nature of the lawsuits described above, which the Company intends to defend vigorously. The Company is not a party to any other litigation or other material claims at this time. While the Company currently believes that the amount of any ultimate potential loss for known matters would not be material to the Company’s financial condition, the outcome of these actions is inherently difficult to predict. In the event of an adverse outcome, the ultimate potential loss could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations in a particular period. The Company establishes reserves when a particular contingency is probable and estimable. Other than those discussed above, the Company has not accrued for any loss at December 31, 2013 in the consolidated financial statements as the Company does not consider a loss to be probable nor estimable. The Company faces contingencies that are reasonably possible to occur; however, the reasonably possible exposure to losses cannot currently be estimated. (14) CONCENTRATIONS Concentration of credit risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, approximately 44% and 56%, respectively, of the balance of accounts receivable was due from the Company’s largest customer. In addition at December 31, 2013, the Company’s second largest customer accounted for 14% of the accounts receivable balance. No other customer account balances were more that 10% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 or 2012. If one or more of the Company’s significant customers were to become insolvent or were otherwise unable to pay for the products provided, it would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Concentration of supplier The Company’s logistics partners arrange for production of its raw materials related to the invisibleSHIELD product line primarily from one source. Management is aware of similar raw materials that would be available from other sources if required and has current plans to immediately engage such resources if necessary. A change in supplier, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which could adversely affect operating results. F-36  ZAGG INC AND SUBISDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars, units, & shares in thousands, except per share data) In addition, the Company purchases the majority of its inventory sourced in Asia through one third party sourcing company. Management is aware of other manufacturing sources that it could utilize if there was a disruption in the operations of the third party sourcing Company. A change in the sourcing Company, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which could adversely affect operating results. Concentration of sales For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, one customer accounted for 26%, 32%, and 30%, respectively, of the Company’s sales. In addition, during 2013, 2012, and 2011, a second customer accounted for 18%, 11%, and 11%, respectively, of sales. No other customer account balances were more that 10% of sales. If the Company loses one or more of the Company’s significant customers, it would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The percentage of sales by geographic region for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was approximately: At December 31, 2013 and 2012, net assets located overseas in Shannon Ireland totaled $8,695 and $4,737, respectively. (15) SEGMENT REPORTING As of December 31, 2012, the Company reported financial information on the following three reportable segments: ZAGG, iFrogz, and HzO. During the first quarter of 2013, management consolidated a number of ZAGG/iFrogz processes and functions, which resulted in the announcement of the closure of the iFrogz office in Logan, Utah and the lay-off of a number of iFrogz employees during the first quarter of 2013. Ultimately, it was decided that the two offices would be consolidated and that the marketing, product development, product management, customer service, sales, accounting, and IT teams that had previously operated independently, would now be combined. In addition, as the Company has continued to evolve as a mobile device accessories company, financial information reviewed and evaluated by the chief operating decision maker is at the consolidated company level, including budget and sales reviews. Further, due to the decrease in size and significance of the HzO investment ($0 balance at December 31, 2013), management determined it to be a corporate asset rather than a separate operating segment. Ultimately, management concludes that the Company should be considered a single reportable segment.
