REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

B.O.S. BETTER ONLINE SOLUTIONS LTD.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of B.O.S Better Online Solutions Ltd. ("the Company") and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 2:-       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared according to United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP").

 
a.
Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions are employed in estimates used in determining values of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, provision for inventory, revenue recognition, tax assets and tax positions, legal contingencies, stock-based compensation costs, and assumptions utilized in troubled debt restructuring. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
b.
Financial statements in U.S. dollars:

A substantial portion of the Company's revenues is generated in U.S. dollar ("dollars"). In addition, most of the Company's costs are incurred in dollars. The Company's management believes that the dollar is the primary currency of the economic environment in which the Company operates. Thus, the functional and reporting currency of the Company is the dollar. Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the dollar are premeasured into dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. All transactions gains and losses from the measurement of monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the statement of operations as financial income or expenses as appropriate.

As of December 31, 2011, the financial statements of a certain subsidiary, whose functional currency is other than the dollar, have been translated into U.S. dollars. All balance sheet accounts have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statement of operations amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported as a component of shareholders' equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
 
As of January 1, 2012, as a result of business changes in a certain subsidiary, the Company changed the functional currency of the subsidiary from NIS to US Dollars.
 
 
c.
Principles of consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances including profits from intercompany sales not yet realized outside the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

d.
Cash equivalents:

Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash purchased with original maturities of less than three months.

 
e.
Inventories:

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the moving average cost method.

Inventory write-offs and write-downs are made to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence.

 
f.
Property, plant and equipment:

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, at the following annual rates:

   
%
   
         
Computers and software
    20 - 33  
(Mainly 33%)

g.
Impairment of long-lived assets:

The Company's long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Asset, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets (or asset group). If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value. During 2012 no impairment losses have been identified. The fair value of the brand name and customer list related intangibles was determined by the income approach method. Assumptions in the fair value assessment included: the impact of changes in economic conditions, revenue and cash flow forecasts for the remaining lives of the intangibles and the Company's weighted average cost of capital ("WACC").

NOTE 2:-       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

During the year 2011 the Company recognized an impairment loss $555 related to a brand name and customer list of which $470 was attributed to the Supply Chain solutions segment and $85 were attributed to the RFID and Mobile solutions segment.
 
During 2012 and 2010 no impairment losses have been identified.

 
h.
Goodwill:

Goodwill represents excess of the costs over the net assets of businesses acquired. Under ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other ("ASC 350"), goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment at least annually or between annual tests in certain circumstances, and written-down when impaired.
 
Goodwill as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 amounted to $4,122. The translation impact on goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2011 was ($316), and $0 during the year ended December 31, 2012 due to the reporting segment's change in functional currency from the NIS to the US Dollar.
 
Testing Methodology:

The Company performs its annual impairment analysis of goodwill as of December 31 of each year, or more often if there are indicators of impairment present. The provisions of ASC 350 requires that a two-step impairment test be performed on goodwill at the level of the reporting units. In the first step, or Step 1, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value of the net assets, goodwill is considered not impaired, and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets exceeds the fair value, then the Company must perform the second step, or Step 2, of the impairment test in order to determine the implied fair value of goodwill. To determine the fair value used in Step 1, the Company uses discounted cash flows. If and when the Company is required to perform a Step 2 analysis, determining the fair value of its net assets and its off-balance sheet intangibles would require it to make judgments that involve the use of significant estimates and assumptions.

The reporting unit of the Company for purposes of the impairment test is the Company's RFID and Mobile solutions segment. Discrete financial information is available for this component of the business. Segment management regularly reviews the operating results of this component.
 
The Company determined the fair value of the reporting unit using the Income Approach, which utilizes a discounted cash flow model, as it believes that this approach best approximates the reporting unit's fair value at this time. Judgments and assumptions related to revenue, operating income, future short-term and long-term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital, interest, capital expenditures, cash flows, and market conditions are inherent in developing the discounted cash flow model. The material assumptions used for the Income Approach for 2012 were five years of projected net cash flows, WACC of 16.06% and a long-term growth rate of 3%. The Company considered historical rates and current market conditions when determining the discount and growth rates to use in its analyses. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges for its goodwill. The aggregate fair value of the Company depends on various factors, some of which are qualitative and involve management judgment, including stable backlog coverage and experience in meeting operating cash flow targets.

During 2012, 2011 and 2010 no impairment losses have been identified.

 
i.
Research and development costs:

ASC 985, Software, requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Company's product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Research and development costs incurred in the process of developing product improvements or new products, are generally charged to expenses as incurred. Costs incurred by the Company between completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general releases are insignificant.

 
j.
Severance pay:

The Company's liability for severance pay for Israeli employees is calculated pursuant to the Israeli Severance Pay Law based on the most recent salary of the employees multiplied by the number of years of employment as of the balance sheet date. Employees are entitled to one month's salary for each year of employment or a portion thereof above one year. The Company's liability for its Israeli employees is mostly covered by insurance policies designed solely for distributing severance pay. The value of these policies is not under the Company's control, thus just the liability net of funds under insurance policy is presented in the balance sheet.

The Company has two general deposit funds for severance. The value of the deposited funds includes profits, and is recorded as an asset in the Company's balance sheet.

The Company's payroll includes employees whom its severance pay liability is calculated pursuant to Article 14 of the Israel's Severance Pay Law. The Company currently deposits the corresponding amounts required in accordance with Article 14 to the relevant pension funds. These amounts will be released to the applicable employees upon termination of employment and this substitutes the obligation described above, to pay severance based on the most recent salary of the employee multiplied by the number of years of employment. The aforementioned deposited amounts are not reflected on the financial statements due to the fact that they are not under the Company's control.

Severance expenses for 2012, 2011 and 2010 amounted to $ 117, $ 242 and $ 137, respectively.

k.
Revenue recognition:

The Company derives its revenues mainly from the sale of products and support services.

Revenues from product sales, related to both the Supply Chain Solutions and RFID and Mobile Solutions segments, are recognized in accordance with SAB 104, Revenue Recognition ("ASC 605") when delivery has occurred, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the vendor's fee is fixed or determinable, no further obligation exists, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 
l.
Income taxes:

The Company and its subsidiaries account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"). ASC 740 prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on the differences Between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company and its subsidiaries provide a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely-than-not to be realized.

The Company implements a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions accounted for in accordance with ASC 740. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is- more- likely- than- not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded tax income of $ 195 and $261, respectively in regard to a decrease of uncertain tax position for closed tax years.

 
m.
Concentrations of credit risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other accounts receivable.

The trade receivables of the Company are derived from sales to customers located primarily in Israel, America, the Far East and Europe. The Company generally does not require collateral; however most of the Company's customers outside of Israel are insured against customer nonpayment, through the Israeli Credit Insurance Company Ltd. In certain circumstances, the Company may require letters of credit, other collateral, additional guarantees or advanced payments. An allowance for doubtful accounts is determined with respect to specific debts that are doubtful of collection.

n.
Derivative financial instruments:

The Company's derivatives consist primarily of forward contracts the Company uses to hedge the Company's exposure to currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company recognized derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities and measures those instruments at fair value. The derivative instruments that the Company holds do not meet the definition of hedging instruments under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (originally issued as SFAS 133 and SFAS161). Therefore, the Company recognizes changes in the fair values of the derivatives in its statement of income in financial income, net, at the same period as the re-measurement of gain and loss of the related foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

As of December 31, 2012, the notional principal of foreign exchange contracts to purchase U.S. dollars with foreign currencies and to sell Euros for foreign currencies was $ 770 and € 930, respectively. The Company recorded the fair value of derivative liability in the amount of $ 5 in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

 
o.
Basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share:

Basic net earnings (loss) per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year, plus the potential dilution to ordinary shares considered outstanding during the year, in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share.

The total number of ordinary shares related to outstanding options and warrants that was excluded from the calculations of diluted net earnings (loss) per share, since they would have an anti-dilutive effect, was 255,228, 381,153 and 360,585 for the years ended December 31, 2012 , 2011 and 2010, respectively.

 
p.
Accounting for share-based compensation:

The Company accounts for equity-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation ("ASC 718") which requires the recognition of compensation expenses based on estimated fair values for all equity-based awards made to employees and nonemployees and directors.

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

The Company recognizes compensation expenses for the value of its awards granted based on the straight line method over the requisite service period of each of the awards, net of estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Estimated forfeitures are based on actual historical pre-vesting forfeitures. The Company considers many factors when estimating forfeitures, including employee class and historical experience.

NOTE 2:-       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)
 
The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are expected stock price volatility and the expected option term. Expected volatility was calculated based upon actual historical stock price movements over the most recent periods ending on the date of grant, equal to the expected option terms. The expected option term represents the period that the Company's stock options are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on the Simplified method permitted by SAB 107 and extended by SAB 110 as the average of the vesting period and the contractual term. The Company currently uses the simplified method as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a reasonable estimate. The Company adopted SAB 110 effective January 1, 2008 and will continue to apply the simplified method until enough historical experience is available to provide a reasonable estimate of the expected term for stock option grants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to pay dividends.

The fair value for options granted in 2012 and 2011 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

q.
Fair value of financial instruments:

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other accounts receivable, short term loans and trade payables approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of such instruments. The carrying amounts of long-term loans approximate their fair value.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts.

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 are Investment in shares of a cost method investee and intangible assets and goodwill that were written down to zero as a result of an impairment loss.

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
 
 
Level 1 -
Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 
Level 2 -
Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

 Level 3 -             Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
                        a.            Share reverse split

On December 14, 2012 the Company announced a reverse split of its Ordinary shares.
 
Pursuant to the reverse split, each 4 Ordinary Shares, NIS 20.00 nominal value per share, will be converted into one Ordinary Share, NIS 80.00 nominal value per share. No fractional shares will be issued as a result of the reverse-split. Instead, all fractional shares will be rounded up to the next higher whole number of shares. All share and per share data in these financial statements and related notes are reported after the giving effect to the 1 for 4 reverse split.

As of December 13, 2012, there were 4,472,298 Ordinary Shares outstanding and after the reverse split there were 1,118,081 Ordinary Shares outstanding.

 
b.
Private placements:

On October 5, 2010 the Company entered into a definitive private placement agreement with Telegraph Hill Capital Fund I, LLC ("THCAP") for the issuance of an aggregate of 24,091 Ordinary Shares at a price per share of $ 12.44, or approximately $ 300 in total. In addition, the Company announced that Mr. Luis Gutierrez Roy, managing partner in THCAP was appointed to its Board of Directors.

On December 21, 2011 the company announced that it has entered into agreements with its convertible debt lenders, for the amendment of their loan agreements and the subsequent conversion of their debt into the Company's ordinary shares.

The amendments to the loan agreements provide that the amount of $ 2,523 of these loans was converted into the company's ordinary shares at a reduced conversion price of $ 6 per share, instead of the conversion rate of $ 13 per share set in the original loan agreements. As a result of the conversion, the company issued 420,491 ordinary shares.
 
In connection with the conversion, the term of warrants to purchase 160,996 shares that had been issued to the lenders, was extended by 2 years, until July 2014 and February 2015 (see Note 12). Following the extension of the warrants as mentioned above, in accordance with ASC 815, the Company recorded $86 financial expenses in its statement of operations in 2011, reflecting the incremental compensation caused directly from the extension.
 
On December 21, 2011 the remaining convertible loan of $ 501 (the "Deferred Loan" or the "2011 restructuring") remains outstanding, and will bear a reduced interest rate of 4% (as was accounted for in the Conversion Agreements). The Deferred Loan will no longer be convertible. The Deferred Loan will be repaid in 24 equal monthly installments commencing January 10, 2014 (instead of in two payments - in July 2012 and February 2013, according to the original convertible note agreement). The balance of the deferred loan as of December 31, 2012 is $527(see note 12).

TAXES ON INCOME

 
a.
Change in corporate tax rate:

The Israeli corporate tax rate was 25% in 2010 and 24% in 2011 and 25% in 2012.
 
On December 5, 2011, the Israeli Parliament (the Knesset) passed the Law for Tax Burden Reform (Legislative Amendments), 2011 ("the Law") which, among other things, cancels, effective from 2012, the scheduled progressive reduction in the corporate tax Rate. The Law also increases the corporate tax rate to 25% in 2012.

 
b.
Loss carry forward:

The Company and its Israeli subsidiaries have accumulated losses for Israeli income tax purposes as of December 31, 2012, in the amount of approximately $ 32,463. These losses may be carried forward and offset against taxable income in the future for an indefinite period. In addition, the Company and its Israeli subsidiaries have accumulated capital loses in the amount of approximately $21,914 which may be carried forward under certain limitations.

 
c.
Deferred income taxes:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets are as follows:

In accordance with the Company's accounting policy, interest expense and potential penalties related to income taxes are included in the tax expense line of the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in Israel and in the United States. BOS, BOS Dimex and BOS Odem may be subject to auditing by the Israel tax authorities for fiscal years 2009 and thereafter. Dimex Hagalil may be subject to auditing by the Israel tax authorities for fiscal years 2008 and thereafter. Ruby-Tech Inc., a U.S.

subsidiary, may be subject to auditing by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years 2008 and thereafter.

The Company believes that it has adequately provided for any reasonably foreseeable outcome related to tax audits and settlement. The final tax outcome of the Company's tax audits could be different from that which is reflected in the Company's income tax provisions and accruals. Such differences could have a material effect on the Company's income tax provision and net loss in the period in which such determination is made.
