Overview Tiger X Medical, Inc. ("Tiger X" or the "Company"), formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by the virtue of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, previously operated as an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance
reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices. During 2010, the Company discontinued its operations and sold the assets from its previous business lines during 2011. Our
continuing operations include the collection and management of our royalty income earned in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, Inc. ("Arthrex"). We
continue to advance and promote our former knee product lines through participation in mobile teaching labs, seminars and live surgery. The Company is constantly evaluating
opportunities for a suitable joint venture partner or buyer for the remaining intellectual property owned by the Company. The Company is also evaluating investment opportunities
and uses for its cash. On June 10, 2011, the Company filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Delaware for the purpose of changing its name to Tiger X
Medical, Inc. The amendment was effective as of June 10, 2011. We are headquartered in Los Angeles, California. Our common stock is quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.'s, Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or the
OTC Bulletin Board with a trading symbol of CDOM.OB. Nature of Business After the sale of our Reconstructive Division assets and our Spine Division assets, our ongoing operations consist of the collection and management of our royalty
income earned pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, as well as continuing to promote our former products sold to Arthrex and seek a joint venture
partner or buyer for the remaining intellectual property that we own. We are evaluating future investment opportunities and uses for our cash. We may in the future elect to acquire
another entity or invest the net proceeds from the sale of the Reconstructive Division assets and/or our Spine Division assets in such manner as is determined by our Board of
Directors and management. Patents We have five issued patents related to intervertebral stabilizers that were not sold as part of the sale of substantially all of the Reconstructive Division assets and the Spine
Division assets. Product Liability and Insurance We are subject to potential product liability risks stemming from our design, marketing and sale of orthopedic implants and surgical instrumentation that were part of the
Reconstructive Division assets and Spine Division assets sold by us during 2011. We currently maintain product liability tail insurance in amounts that we believe are typical for
companies of comparable size. Employees As of December 31, 2015, other than Andrew Brooks who serves as our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, and who receives no salary for such
positions, we have no full time employees. 1
Our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects, and the prevailing market price and performance of our common stock, may be adversely
affected by a number of factors, including the matters discussed below. Certain statements and information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as other written or
oral statements made from time to time by us or by our authorized officers on our behalf, constitute "forward- looking statements." You should note that our forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K or when made and we undertake no duty or obligation to update or revise our forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although we believe that the expectations, plans, intentions and projections reflected in our forward-looking
statements are reasonable, such statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or
achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We have identified the following categories of risk that should be considered by investors: Certain of the risks identified under "Risks Related to Our Business, Industry and Regulatory Matters," "Risks Related to Our Financial Results," and "Risks Related to Our
Intellectual Property and Potential Litigation," describe factors that have historically posed risks to us and that could in the future adversely affect us if we are unable to continue
operating our business, or if we acquire a business in the same or related industry in the future. Risks Related to the Sale of Substantially all of our Assets We face risks associated with enforcing Arthrex's obligation to make royalty payments under the asset purchase agreement or may receive royalty payments that are
substantially less than our expectations. As partial consideration for the Reconstructive Division asset sale under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, Arthrex agreed to pay us an amount equal to 5% of net
sales of the products of our Reconstructive Division acquired pursuant to the asset purchase agreement. The royalty has been and we expect will continue to be paid in cash on a
quarterly basis, for a period up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing. We may experience difficulties collecting or enforcing the royalty payments over time, including if
we fail to have the adequate resources, including personnel, to verify the underlying net sales. Additionally, we may ultimately collect royalty payments that are substantially less
than our expectations if any of our intellectual property related to the Reconstructive Division assets becomes invalidated or rendered unenforceable due to Arthrex's right under the
terms of the asset purchase agreement to set-off against the royalty payment due any and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in good faith arising out of claims by
unaffiliated third parties alleging infringement of intellectual property rights. We have made certain changes to our remaining assets and operations which may adversely affect our reputation or future results or prospects.
Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement relating to the sale of substantially all of the Reconstructive Division assets, we have changed our name, logos,
trade dress, trade names, trademarks, service marks and the like to new names that are reasonably satisfactory to Arthrex and do not use the words "Cardo" or any variation
thereof. Upon the closing of the sale of the Reconstructive Division assets, we changed our name to Tiger X Medical, Inc. These changes eliminated any brand recognition, brand
equity or loyalty we have developed over our operating history and may adversely affect our future reputation or future results or prospects. 2
If our operations continue to consist of the receipt and management of royalty payments and promoting our former knee products, we will have limited operating businesses.
In October 2010, our management and Board of Directors decided to put substantially all of our assets up for sale. Due to the completion of the sales of the Reconstructive
Division assets and Spine Division assets, our operating business consists of the ownership and management of our remaining assets, which includes promoting our former product
lines through participation in mobile teaching labs, seminars and live surgery, and the receipt and management of royalty payments pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement.
Without additional operating business, we will not realize any revenues other than through the royalty payments we are entitled to under the terms of the Reconstructive Division
asset sale and any future acquisition of an operating business or assets. Risks Related to Our Business, Industry and Regulatory Matters We may not be able to raise additional funds in the future, on acceptable terms or at all, to fund any future investment opportunities, including the acquisition of a business or
assets. We are evaluating future investment opportunities and uses for our cash. We may in the future elect to acquire another entity or invest the net proceeds from the sale of
the Reconstructive Division assets and/or our Spine Division assets in such manner as is determined by our Board of Directors and management. In order to consummate any future
investment opportunity, we may need to secure additional funds. We cannot assure you that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. Prior to agreeing to the
sale of the Reconstructive Division assets, we were pursuing efforts to secure additional funding for our business, but we were not successful. The market for debt and equity
financing is challenging and the additional financing that we may require in the future may not be available at all or, if available, may be on terms unfavorable to us and our
stockholders, and could substantially dilute current ownership interests. Our actual capital requirements may change as a result of various factors, including: Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Failure to attract and retain necessary personnel, in the event of any future acquisition of an operating business or assets, may adversely affect or delay our future results
or prospects. If we identify any future investment opportunities and uses for our cash, including the acquisition of a business or assets, we will need to attract and retain necessary
personnel to consummate such transaction and operate such business or assets going forward. Our success in that case will depend on our ability to continuously attract and retain
the necessary highly qualified personnel and develop any necessary relationships or collaborations necessary or advantageous for the operation of such business or assets. The
competition for qualified personnel and collaborators is intense. We may not be able to attract or retain such personnel or cultivate such collaborations in the future. Our inability to
hire or retain qualified personnel or cultivate necessary collaborations in the event of any future acquisition of an operating business or assets may adversely affect our future results
or prospects. 3
Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property and Potential Litigation The medical device industry is characterized by patent and other intellectual property litigation, and we could become subject to litigation that could be costly, result in
diverting management's time and efforts, require us to pay damages, and/or prevent us from marketing our existing or future products. The medical device market in which we primarily participate is in large part technology-driven. Physician customers move quickly to new products and new
technologies. As a result, intellectual property rights, particularly patents and trade secrets, play a significant role in product development and differentiation. However, intellectual
property litigation to defend or create market advantage is inherently complex, unpredictable, time-consuming and costly. Furthermore, appellate courts frequently overturn lower
court patent decisions. In addition, competing parties frequently file multiple suits to leverage patent portfolios across product lines, technologies and geographies and to balance risk and exposure
between the parties. In some cases, several competitors are parties in the same proceeding, or in a series of related proceedings, or litigate multiple features of a single class of
medical devices. These forces frequently drive settlement not only of individual cases, but also of a series of pending and potentially related and unrelated cases. In addition,
although monetary and injunctive relief is typically sought, remedies and restitution generally are not determined until the conclusion of the proceedings and are frequently modified
on appeal. Accordingly, the outcomes of individual cases are difficult to time, predict or quantify and are often dependent upon the outcomes of other cases in other
geographies. We also may have to take legal action in the future to protect our remaining patents, trade secrets or know-how or to assert them against claimed infringement by others. Any
legal action of that type could be costly and time-consuming, and we cannot assure you that any lawsuit will be successful. In addition, we may not have sufficient resources,
including personnel, to enforce our intellectual property rights or to defend our patents against a challenge. For the reasons indicated above, enforcing our remaining intellectual property rights may be costly, difficult and time-consuming. Even if successful, litigation to enforce our
remaining intellectual property rights or to defend our patents against challenge could be expensive and time-consuming and could divert our limited management's attention. We may be subject to damages resulting from claims that we or our past or present employees or consultants have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets of
their former employers. Some of our past or present employees and consultants were previously employed or engaged at universities or other medical device companies, including our past
competitors or potential competitors. We could in the future be subject to claims that these past or present employees and consultants, or we, have inadvertently or otherwise used
or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of their former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. If we fail to defend against these
claims, a court could order us to pay substantial damages and prohibit us from using technologies or features that are essential to our products and processes, if these technologies
or features are found to incorporate or be derived from the trade secrets or other proprietary information of the former employers. Even if we are successful in defending against
these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to our management. 4
Potential future product liability claims and other litigation, including contract litigation, may adversely affect our future results and prospects. Reconstructive and spine surgery involves a high risk of serious complications, including bleeding, nerve injury, paralysis and even death. As a result, we are exposed
to potential product liability claims that are inherent in the testing, manufacture and sale of medical devices for surgery procedures that were part of the Reconstructive Division and
Spine Division assets sold during 2011. Many of these medical devices are designed to be implanted in the human body for long periods of time or indefinitely. A number of factors
could result in an unsafe condition or injury to, or death of, a patient with respect to these or other products that we manufacture or sell, including component failures, manufacturing
flaws, design defects or inadequate disclosure of product-related risks or product-related information. These factors could result in product liability claims, a recall of one or more
products or a safety alert relating to one or more products. Product liability claims may be brought by individuals or by groups seeking to represent a class. In connection with our acquisition of the assets of Accin Corporation, which we refer to as Accin, in May 2007 (through our ownership of Accelerated Innovation, which we refer
to as Accelerated Innovation, one of our former subsidiaries) and as a result of the reverse merger we completed in August 2008, which we refer to as the Merger, we assumed the
responsibility for any litigation or claims related to Accin's business, including product liability claims relating to products previously sold by Accin. The outcome of litigation,
particularly class action lawsuits, is difficult to assess or quantify. Plaintiffs in these lawsuits often seek recovery of very large or indeterminate amounts, including not only actual
damages, but also punitive damages. The magnitude of the potential loss relating to these lawsuits may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. In addition, the cost to
defend against any future litigation may be significant. Although we currently maintain product liability tail insurance in amounts that we believe are typical for companies of comparable size, our product liability insurance may prove
to be inadequate to pay a damage award, in which case we may have to pay the excess out of our cash reserves, which may harm our financial condition. If longer-term patient
results and experience indicate that what were previously our products under the Reconstructive Division or Spine Division or any component may cause tissue damage, motor
impairment or other adverse effects, we could be subject to significant liability. Finally, even a meritless or unsuccessful product liability claim could harm our reputation in the
industry and lead to significant legal fees. Even if any product liability loss is covered by our product liability tail insurance policy, these policies have substantial retentions or deductibles that provide that insurance
proceeds are not recoverable until the losses incurred exceed the amount of those retentions or deductibles. To the extent that any losses are below these retentions or deductibles,
we will be responsible for paying these losses. Paying retentions or deductibles for a significant amount of claims could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and
results of operations and our future results and prospects. After the term of our product liability tail insurance, we will be self-insured with respect to general and product liability claims. The absence of significant third- party insurance
coverage increases potential exposure to unanticipated claims and adverse decisions. As a result, product liability claims, product recalls and other litigation in the future, regardless
of their outcome, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity, and our future results and prospects. 5
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock Our common stock is thinly traded. There is a very minimal public market for our common stock and our common stock has become more thinly traded after the consummation of the sale of substantially
all of the Reconstructive Division assets and the Spine Division assets. We cannot predict how liquid the market for our common stock might become. Trades of our common stock are conducted on the OTC Bulletin Board. If our common stock remains listed on the OTC Bulletin Board or is suspended from the OTC Bulletin
Board, the trading price of our common stock could suffer, the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased
volatility. Furthermore, for companies whose securities are traded in the OTC Bulletin Board, it is more difficult to obtain accurate stock quotations and raise needed capital. Also,
because major wire services generally do not publish press releases about these companies, it is also more difficult for them to obtain coverage for significant news and events. In addition, the price at which our common stock may be sold is very unpredictable because there are very few trades in our common stock. We cannot predict the extent to
which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained at any time in the future. While our common stock is thinly traded, a large block of shares traded
can lead to a dramatic fluctuation in the share price. Our common stock has fluctuated substantially and we expect that the price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate substantially, potentially adversely affecting
the ability of investors to sell their shares. The market price of our common stock has historically been highly volatile and has fluctuated between $0.06 and $0.20 since the sale of substantially all of our
Reconstructive Division assets and Spine Division assets. The market price of our common stock is subject to wide fluctuations in response to the following factors, many of which
are generally beyond our control. These factors may include: Market price fluctuations may negatively affect the ability of investors to sell our shares at consistent prices. We may become involved in securities class action litigation that could divert management's attention and harm its business. The stock market in general and the stocks of medical device companies in particular have experienced extreme percentage price and volume fluctuations. These
fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the companies involved. If these fluctuations occur in the future, the market price of our
shares could fall regardless of any future investment opportunities we may pursue or our future operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price
of a particular company's securities, securities class action litigation has been brought against that company. If the market price or volume of our shares suffers extreme fluctuations,
then we may become involved in this type of litigation which would be expensive and divert our management's attention and resources. 6
Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law may discourage or prevent a change in control, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our
stockholders, which could affect our stock price adversely and prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control of our company or changes in our Board of Directors that
our stockholders might consider favorable. Some of these provisions: In addition, we are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which may prohibit certain business combinations with stockholders
owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. These and other provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation, our Bylaws and Delaware law could make it more difficult for
stockholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of our Board of Directors or initiate actions that are opposed by our then-current Board of Directors, including to delay or impede
a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving our company. Any delay or prevention of a change in control transaction or changes in our Board of Directors could cause the
market price of our common stock to decline. Because our common stock is a "penny stock," it may be more difficult for investors to sell shares of our common stock, and the market price of our common stock may
be adversely affected. Our common stock is considered a "penny stock" if, among other things, the stock price is below $5.00 per share (our shares of common stock have been trading at
between $0.06 and $0.20 since the sales of substantially all of our Reconstructive Division assets and Spine Division assets), we are not listed for trading on a national securities
exchange or approved for quotation on the Nasdaq Stock Market or any other national stock exchange (we are currently traded on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board), or we have
not met certain net tangible asset or average revenue requirements. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks must provide purchasers of these stocks with a standardized risk-
disclosure document prepared by the SEC. This document provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks involved in investing in the penny-stock market.
A broker also must give a purchaser, orally or in writing, bid and offer quotations and information regarding broker and salesperson compensation, make a written determination that
the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and obtain the purchaser's written agreement to the purchase. In addition, broker-dealers must provide customers that
hold penny stock in their accounts with that broker-dealer a monthly statement containing price and market information relating to the penny stock. If a penny stock is sold to an
investor in violation of the penny stock rules, the investor may be able to cancel its purchase and get its money back. If applicable, the penny stock rules may make it difficult for investors to sell their shares of our common stock. Because of the rules and restrictions applicable to a penny stock,
there is less trading in penny stocks and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected. Also, many brokers choose not to participate in penny stock transactions.
Accordingly, investors may not always be able to resell their shares of our common stock publicly at times and prices that they feel are appropriate. Directors, executive officers, principal stockholders and affiliated entities own a significant percentage of our capital stock, and they may make decisions that you do not
consider to be in the best interests of our stockholders. As of March 18, 2016, our directors, executive officers, principal stockholders and affiliated entities beneficially owned, in the aggregate, approximately 62% of our
outstanding voting securities, of which approximately 42% is owned by Andrew Brooks, our CEO and acting CFO, and his brother, Jon Brooks. As a result, if some or all of them
acted together, they would have the ability to exert substantial influence over the election of our Board of Directors and the outcome of issues requiring approval by our stockholders.
This concentration of ownership also may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our Company that may be favored by other stockholders. 7
This could prevent transactions in which stockholders might otherwise recover a premium for their shares over current market prices. Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock
price. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which we refer to as Section 404, requires management's annual review and evaluation of our internal control systems.
We currently only have one employee and limited consultants who we may engage from time to time who will continue to expend time documenting and testing our internal control
systems and procedures. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to
time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404.
Absolute assurance also cannot be provided that testing will reveal all material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting. Privately-held businesses are not subject to the same requirements for internal controls as public companies. While we intend to address any material weaknesses at acquired
companies, there is no assurance that this will be accomplished. If we fail to maintain the effectiveness of acquired companies' internal controls, we may not be able to conclude on
an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control
environment could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price. Compliance with changing regulations concerning corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses. There have been changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure promulgated by the SEC and rules promulgated by
national securities exchanges. These new or changed laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a
result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies, which could result in continuing uncertainty regarding
compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. As a result, our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations and
standards are likely to continue to result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to
compliance activities. Our board members, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer could face an increased risk of personal liability in connection with the performance of
their duties. As a result, we may have difficulty attracting and retaining qualified board members and executive officers, which could harm our business. If our efforts to comply with
new or changed laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies, we could be subject to liability under applicable laws or our
reputation may be harmed. Stockholders may experience significant dilution if future equity offerings are used to fund operations or acquire complementary businesses. If future operations or acquisitions are financed through issuing equity securities, stockholders could experience significant dilution. In addition, securities issued in
connection with future financing activities or potential acquisitions may have rights and preferences senior to the rights and preferences of our common stock. The issuance of
shares of our common stock upon the exercise of options outstanding under employee benefit plans may result in dilution to our stockholders. 8
We do not intend to pay cash dividends. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock, if any. We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently expect to use available funds and any future earnings to pursue future investment
opportunities, including the acquisition of businesses or assets, and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of any future debt or
credit facility we may obtain may preclude us from paying any dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be an investor's only source of potential
gain from our common stock for the foreseeable future. Our Certificate of Incorporation grants our Board of Directors the power to designate and issue additional shares of common and/or preferred stock. Our authorized capital consists of 750,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our preferred stock may be designated into series
pursuant to authority granted by our Certificate of Incorporation, and on approval from our Board of Directors. The Board of Directors, without any action by our stockholders, may
designate and issue shares in classes or series as the Board of Directors deems appropriate and establish the rights, preferences and privileges of those shares, including
dividends, liquidation and voting rights. The rights of holders of other classes or series of stock that may be issued could be superior to the rights of holders of our common shares.
The designation and issuance of shares of capital stock having preferential rights could adversely affect other rights appurtenant to shares of our common stock. Furthermore, any
issuances of additional stock (common or preferred) will dilute the percentage of ownership interest of then-current holders of our capital stock and may dilute our book value per
share. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments None. As of December 31, 2015, we had no leased office space. The business is operated out of Los Angeles, California and is managed remotely. We believe our current facility
arrangement is adequate for our needs. From time to time, we may be a party to legal proceedings incidental to our business. We do not believe that there are any proceedings threatened or pending against us,
which would have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations and cash flows. Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures. None. 9
PART II Market for Common Stock The Company's common stock currently trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "CDOM.OB." The following table sets forth the quarterly high and low sales
prices of our common stock for the fiscal years 2015 and 2014 and the 2016 first quarter through the date of the filing, as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. This information
represents prices between dealers and does not include retail mark-ups, markdowns or commissions and may not represent actual transactions. High Low Fiscal Year 2016 First Quarter (Through March 24, 2016) $0.11 $0.07 Fiscal Year 2015 First Quarter $0.13 $0.09 Second Quarter $0.11 $0.09 Third Quarter $0.11 $0.07 Fourth Quarter $0.08 $0.06 Fiscal Year 2014 First Quarter $0.11 $0.08 Second Quarter $0.11 $0.08 Third Quarter $0.14 $0.10 Fourth Quarter $0.13 $0.10 As of March 18, 2016, there were approximately 207 registered holders of record of the common stock. We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not plan to pay any such dividends in the foreseeable future. Our Board of Directors will determine our future
dividend policy on the basis of many factors, including results of operations, capital requirements and general business conditions. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of proceeds From Registered Securities. None. Item 6. Selected Financial Data Not Applicable. 10
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. As used in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation," except where the context otherwise requires, the term "we," "us,"
"our," or "Tiger X," refers to the business of Tiger X Medical, Inc. Overview Tiger X Medical, Inc. ("Tiger X" or the "Company"), formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc., previously operated as an orthopedic medical device company specializing in
designing, developing and marketing high performance reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices. As discussed below, in 2011 we entered into an asset purchase
agreement to sell substantially all of our assets in the Reconstructive Division to Arthrex, Inc. ("Arthrex"). Additionally, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets in the
Spine Division in 2011. Our continuing operations include the collection and management of our royalty income earned in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with
Arthrex, as well as continuing to promote our former products sold to Arthrex through participation in mobile teaching labs, seminars and live surgery and seek a joint venture partner
or buyer for the remaining intellectual property owned by the Company. The Company will also be evaluating future investment opportunities and uses for its cash. We are headquartered in Los Angeles, California. Our common stock is quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.'s, Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or the
OTC Bulletin Board with a trading symbol of CDOM.OB. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Those material accounting estimates that we believe are
the most critical to an investor's understanding of our financial results and condition are discussed immediately below and are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial
position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of
certain estimates. Use of Estimates Financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") require management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Among other things, management makes estimates relating to allowances for doubtful accounts, net realizable value of assets, share- based payment, and deferred income
tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 11
Revenue Recognition The Company's revenue consists of royalty income from Arthrex pursuant to the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement. Royalty income is recognized as the amount becomes
known and collectability is reasonably assured. Income Taxes Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at currently effective tax rates, of future deductible or taxable
amounts attributable to events that have been recognized on a cumulative basis in the financial statements. A valuation allowance related to a deferred income tax asset is recorded
when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred income tax asset will not be realized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the
changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company recognizes all material tax positions, including all significant uncertain tax positions, in which it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained based on
its technical merits and if challenged by the relevant taxing authorities. At each balance sheet date, unresolved uncertain tax positions are reassessed to determine whether
subsequent developments require a change in the amount of recognized tax benefit. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 creates a new topic in the ASC Topic 606 and establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model, changes the basis for
deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics, and expands and improves disclosures about
revenue. In addition, ASU 2014-09 adds a new Subtopic to the Codification, ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs: Contracts with Customers, to provide guidance on costs
related to obtaining a contract with a customer and costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer that are not in the scope of another ASC Topic. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 is
effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Early application is not permitted. Management is
in the process of assessing the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company's financial statements. Results of Operations and Financial Condition for the Year Ended December 31, 2015 as Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2014 The following are the consolidated results of our operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014. 12
Royalty income Royalty income amounted to $517,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared with $427,000 for 2014. Revenues represented royalties received from Arthrex
in connection with the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement. The increase during 2015 is the result of Arthrex's increased sales of the acquired product line. Until we find a joint
venture partner or buyer for our remaining intellectual property or find an investment opportunity for our existing cash, we expect our primary source of revenue to be royalty
payments under the Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 increased by $2,000 to $198,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to
$196,000 as compared to December 31, 2015. General and administrative expenses primarily represent our continuing operating expenses, including business insurance expense
and professional fees such as legal, accounting and audit services. The general and administrative expenses in 2015 have remained generally consistent with 2014, as there have
been no significant changes in our operations during these years. In the future, we expect our general and administrative expenses to remain at a similar level as 2015. Liquidity and Capital Resources Net cash provided by operating activities was $331,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $214,000 for
2014. Our cash provided by operations improved during 2015 primarily due to our royalty revenue increasing by $90,000 as compared to 2014. We had no cash flows from investing or financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2015 or 2014. We believe our cash balances of $13,840,000 as of December 31, 2015 are adequate to meet our cash needs for the next twelve months and beyond. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements We have no off-balance sheet financing arrangements. Contractual Obligations We currently have no contractual obligations. Forward Looking Statements Our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects, and the prevailing market price and performance of our common stock, may be adversely
affected by a number of factors, including the matters discussed in "Risk Factors". Certain statements and information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as other
written or oral statements made from time to time by us or by our authorized executive officers on our behalf, constitute "forward-looking statements." You should note that our
forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K or when made and we undertake no duty or obligation to update or revise our forward-
looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although we believe that the expectations, plans, intentions and projections reflected in our
forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance
or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. The risks, uncertainties and
other factors that should be considered are included in "Risk Factors" in Item 1A. 13

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm The Board of Directors and Shareholders Tiger X Medical, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tiger X Medical, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and their related consolidated
statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor
were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
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 consolidated financial position of Tiger X Medical, Inc. as of
December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. /s/ ANTON & CHIA, LLP Newport Beach, California 15

TIGER X MEDICAL, INC. 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Tiger X Medical, Inc. ("Tiger X" or the "Company"), formerly known as Cardo Medical, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, previously operated as an orthopedic medical device company specializing in designing, developing and marketing high performance
reconstructive joint devices and spinal surgical devices. During 2010, the Company discontinued its operations and sold the assets from its previous business lines during 2011. Our continuing operations include the collection and
management of our royalty income earned in connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex, Inc. ("Arthrex"). We continue to advance and promote our former knee
product lines through participation in mobile teaching labs, seminars and live surgery. The Company is constantly evaluating opportunities for a suitable joint venture partner or buyer
for the remaining intellectual property owned by the Company. The Company is also evaluating investment opportunities and uses for its cash. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tiger X, Accelerated Innovation, Inc. ("Accelerated"), Uni-Knee LLC ("Uni") and Cervical Xpand LLC
("Cervical"). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Royalty Agreement On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Arthrex (the agreement being the "Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement"), pursuant
to which the Company agreed to sell the assets of the Reconstructive Division to Arthrex. The Arthrex Asset Purchase Agreement also provides for the Company to receive royalty
payments equal to 5% of net sales of the Company's products made by Arthrex on a quarterly basis for a term up to and including the 20th anniversary of the closing date. During
the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company received total royalty payments of $517,000 and $427,000, respectively, from Arthrex. These amounts are reflected as royalty income on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Use of Estimates Financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management makes estimates
relating to the estimated depreciable lives of property and equipment, share-based payment and the valuation allowance related to deferred income tax assets. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. 20
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company's cash and cash equivalents
are with local and national banking institutions and subjected to current FDIC insurance limits of $250,000 per banking institution. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company
bank balances in these bank accounts exceeded the insured amount by $13,593,000 and $13,274,000, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses related to this
concentration of risk. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company has estimated the fair value amounts of its financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methodologies considered to be
appropriate. The Company has determined that the book value of the Company's other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2015 and 2014
is the approximate fair value. Share-Based Payment The Company recognizes equity-based compensation using the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Accordingly,
compensation cost for stock options is calculated based on the fair value at the time of the grant and is recognized as expense over the vesting period of the instrument in general
and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There were no stock option awards granted during the years ended December 31, 2015 or
2014. Revenue Recognition Revenue consists of royalty income, which is recorded as the amount becomes known and collectability is reasonably assured. Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The likelihood of realizing the tax benefits related to a potential deferred tax asset is evaluated, and a valuation allowance is recognized to reduce that deferred
tax asset if it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the beginning and end of
the year; the change in the sum of the deferred tax asset, valuation allowance and deferred tax liability during the year generally is recognized as a deferred tax expense or benefit.
The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company evaluates the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in its financial statements and determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position
will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit is recorded in its financial statements. Where applicable, associated interest
and penalties are also recorded. The Company has not accrued for any such uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. 21
Net Income Per Share Basic net income per share is computed by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is
computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental common shares
issuable upon exercise of stock options or warrants. No dilutive potential common shares were included in the computation of diluted net income per share because their impact was
anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had total options of 385,000 which were excluded from the computation of net income per share because they are
anti-dilutive. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 creates a new topic in the ASC Topic 606 and establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model, changes the basis
for deciding when revenue is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics, and expands and improves disclosures about
revenue. In addition, ASU 2014-09 adds a new Subtopic to the Codification, ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs: Contracts with Customers, to provide guidance on costs
related to obtaining a contract with a customer and costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer that are not in the scope of another ASC Topic. The guidance in ASU 2014-
09 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Early application is not permitted. Management is
in the process of assessing the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company's financial statements. 2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Our authorized capital consists of 750,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our preferred stock may be designated into series
pursuant to authority granted by our Certificate of Incorporation, and on approval from our Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we did not have any preferred
stock issued. 3. INCOME TAXES The items accounting for the difference between income taxes computed at the federal statutory rate and the provision for income taxes from continuing operations were as
follows: 22
Significant components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows: At December 31, 2015, the Company has Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards ("NOL") available to offset future taxable income of
approximately $10,425,000 and $4,219,000, respectively. These NOLs will begin to expire in the year ending December 31, 2028. These NOL's may be subject to various limitations
on utilization based on ownership changes in the prior years under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. Based on its analysis, management does not believe that an ownership
change has occurred that would trigger such a limitation. The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance
to the extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is not judged to be more likely than not. Management considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future
realization of the Company's deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction, expectations of future taxable income or loss, the
carryforward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, based on the weight of available evidence, management determined that it was unlikely that the Company's deferred tax assets would be
realized and have provided for a full valuation allowance associated with the net deferred tax assets. The Company periodically analyzes its tax positions taken and expected to be taken and has determined that since inception there has been no need to record a liability for
uncertain tax positions. The Company classifies income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations. There was no accrued interest or penalties as of December 31, 2015 or 2014. The Company is neither under examination by any taxing authority, nor has it been notified of any impending examination. The Company's tax years for its Federal and State
jurisdictions which are currently open for examination are the years of 2007 - 2014. 4. SHARE BASED PAYMENT The Company has outstanding stock options issued to employees and Board members which are exercisable at $0.23 per share. The options vest 20% each year over a
five year period and expire after ten years. As of December 31, 2015, there were no unvested options. There were no options granted and no expense recognized during the years
ended December 31, 2015 or 2014. On June 16, 2010, the Company's stockholders approved the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which provided for available awards up to 23,000,000 shares. No awards have been
issued pursuant to this plan. 23
A summary of option activity as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and changes during the years then ended is presented below. The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above is before applicable income taxes and represents the closing stock price as of the reporting dates less
the exercise price, multiplied by the number of options that have an exercise price that is less than the closing stock price. Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure None. Item 9A. Controls and Procedures Disclosure Controls and Procedures We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the
Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive
officer and our interim chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer, who is also our interim chief financial
officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by
this Annual Report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as
of December 31, 2015. 24
Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Our internal control over financial reporting is 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. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that: 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. Under the direction of our principal executive officer, who is also our interim chief financial officer, management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2015 based upon the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Our internal control over financial reporting was deemed to be effective as of December 31, 2015. This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's
report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act that permanently exempted non-accelerated filers from the
auditor attestation requirement. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2015 that have materially or are
reasonably likely to material affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. None. 25

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
The Audit Committee reviews and approves transactions in which the company was or is to be a participant, where the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000 annually and any of our directors, executive officers or their immediate family members had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. We have a written policy stating that the Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and, if appropriate, approving or ratifying any related party transactions. The related party transaction will not be approved unless at a minimum it is for our benefit and is upon terms no less favorable to us than if the related party transaction was with an unrelated third party. In Fiscal 2015, no related party transaction occurred where this process was not followed.
Determining Director Independence
The Board of Directors previously undertook a review of each director's independence. During this review, the Board of Directors considered transactions and relationships between each director or any member of his or her immediate family and us and our subsidiaries and affiliates. The Board of Directors also examined transactions and relationships between directors or their known affiliates and members of our senior management or their known affiliates. The purpose of this review was to determine whether any such relationships or transactions were inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent under applicable laws and regulations and the NYSE MKT listing standards. As a result of our review of the relationships of each of the members of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors affirmatively determined that a majority of our directors, specifically Stephen Liu, Thomas H. Morgan, Steven D. Rubin, Ronald N. Richards and Subbarao Uppaluri are "independent" directors within the meaning of the listing standards of NYSE MKT and applicable law. Mr. Jon Brooks is the brother of our CEO, Dr. Andrew Brooks.

We did not have any audit related fees, tax fees or other fees during Fiscal 2015 or Fiscal 2014.
34
Our Audit Committee must review and pre-approve both audit and permitted non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm and shall not engage the independent registered public accounting firm to perform any non-audit services prohibited by law or regulation. Periodically at the Audit Committee meetings, our Audit Committee receives updates on the services actually provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, and management may present additional services for pre- approval. Our Audit Committee has delegated to the Chairman of the Audit Committee the authority to evaluate and approve engagements on behalf of the Audit Committee in the event that a need arises for pre-approval between regular Audit Committee meetings. If the Chairman so approves any such engagements, he will report that approval to the full Audit Committee at the next Audit Committee meeting.
Each year, the independent registered public accounting firm's retention to audit our financial statements, including the associated fee, is approved by our Audit Committee before the filing of the preceding year's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
