AVIGILON CORPORATION MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) provides a review of the financial condition and results of operations of Avigilon Corporation (“Avigilon”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “its” or “our”), on a consolidated basis, as at and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. It should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and accompanying notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 (the “Financial Statements”) and with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the MD&A thereon. All financial information presented in this MD&A was prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), unless otherwise stated. This MD&A has been prepared as of November 14, 2016. All amounts are expressed in thousands of United States (“US”) dollars (“USD”), except with respect to per share amounts, number of shares, and as otherwise stated. Additional information relating to Avigilon, including Avigilon’s Annual Information Form dated March 1, 2016 (the “AIF”), can be found under Avigilon’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain information and statements contained in this MD&A, including all statements that are not historical facts, contain and constitute forward-looking information or forward-looking statements as defined under applicable securities laws (collectively, “forward-looking statements”).

Avigilon has also assumed that no significant events will occur outside of Avigilon’s normal course of business. Although Management believes that the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are reasonable, actual results could be substantially different due to the risks and uncertainties associated with and inherent to Avigilon's business, as more particularly described in the “Risk Factors” section of the AIF. Additional material risks and uncertainties applicable to the forward-looking statements set out herein include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in Avigilon’s operating and capital expenses; fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates that impact Avigilon; deficiencies in accounting policies or internal controls and procedures over financial reporting; the unavailability of certain tax credits; and unforeseen events, developments, or factors causing any of the aforesaid expectations, assumptions, and other factors ultimately being inaccurate or irrelevant. Although Avigilon has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events, or results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, predicted, estimated, or intended. Many of these factors are beyond the control of Avigilon. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Avigilon undertakes no obligation to reissue or update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or events after the date hereof except as may be required by law. All forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are qualified by this cautionary statement.

Other product names mentioned herein may be the trademarks of their respective owners. The absence of the symbols ™ and ® in proximity to each trademark in this MD&A is not a disclaimer of ownership of the related trademark. NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES In addition to results reported in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses certain non-IFRS financial measures as supplemental indicators of its financial and operating performance. These non-IFRS financial measures include Adjusted EBITDA1, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted Earnings per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) and Cash from operations before changes in non-cash working capital. The Company believes that these supplementary financial measures reflect the Company’s ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period to period comparisons and analysis of trends in its business. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as earnings and earnings as a percentage of revenue, respectively, before deducting interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, foreign exchange gain or loss, business acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs, non-recurring legal costs, non-recurring lease termination costs and share-based payments. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure, as it provides an indication of the operational results of the business prior to taking into consideration how those activities are financed and taxed and also prior to taking into consideration asset amortization, foreign exchange gain or loss, business acquisition-related costs, restructuring costs, nonrecurring legal costs, non-recurring lease termination costs and share-based payments. The Company defines Adjusted Earnings as earnings before share-based payments, foreign exchange gain or loss, business acquisition-related costs, financing costs, restructuring costs, non-recurring legal costs, non-recurring lease termination costs, amortization of acquired intangibles and related tax effects. Adjusted EPS is calculated using both the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and does not represent actual earnings per share attributable to shareholders. We believe that the disclosure of Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EPS allows investors to evaluate the operational and financial performance of the Company’s ongoing business using the same evaluation measures that its management uses, and is therefore a useful indicator of the Company’s performance or expected performance of recurring operations. The Company defines Cash from operations before changes in non-cash working capital as cash from operating activities excluding working capital adjustments, interest paid and received and amounts paid towards income taxes. The Company considers Cash from operations before changes in non-cash working capital to be a key measure as it demonstrates the Company’s ability to generate cash necessary to fund future capital investments and to repay debt, if applicable. These non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and other companies may calculate these measures differently. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. 1

CHANGE IN BASIS OF PREPARATION Change in Functional Currency Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its functional currency from Canadian dollars (“CAD”) to USD. The Company applied the change in functional currency on a prospective basis. This change reflects the Company’s financing and operating activities, which are now primarily carried out in USD as a result of increased sales denominated in USD, the ramping up of the Company’s US manufacturing facility and USD draws on the Credit Facility. As a result, the Company’s functional currency is now the same as its presentation currency, which is discussed in more detail below. NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES Change in Inventory Costing Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its inventory costing methodology from first-in, first out (“FIFO”) to weighted average cost (“WAC”), as a result of the implementation of our new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. This change more accurately reflects the current value of inventory, which provides for a better matching of cost of sales to revenue. The effect on current and prior periods of changing the inventory costing method from FIFO to WAC is not material. Change in Sales Return Provision Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its sales return provision policy. Subsequent to that date, for all adjustments to revenue with respect to estimated future sales returns, the Company has made an offsetting adjustment to cost of sales to reflect the expected value of goods to be returned. The Company implemented this change to more accurately reflect the impact on gross margin of estimated future sales returns. The effect on current and prior periods of the change in the sales return provision policy is not material. Change in Presentation Currency Effective January 1, 2016, the Company changed its presentation currency from CAD to USD to better reflect the Company’s business activities and to improve investors’ ability to compare the Company’s financial results with other publicly traded industry participants. In making the change in presentation currency, the Company followed the guidance set out in International Accounting Standard 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. The cumulative translation reserves were set to nil at January 1, 2010, the date of transition to IFRS. The cumulative translation reserves and all comparative information included in this MD&A have been restated to reflect the Company’s results as if they had been historically reported in USD at that date.

RECENT CORPORATE EVENTS Changes to the Leadership Team On January 21, 2016, Pradeep Khosla, Chancellor of University of California, San Diego, was appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), increasing the number of Directors on the Board to eight. Chancellor Khosla previously served as Carnegie Mellon’s Dean of the College of Engineering. Chancellor Khosla has also managed advanced R&D projects for the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. On November 2, 2016, the Company announced the promotion of James Henderson to Chief Sales and Marketing Officer. Mr. Henderson joined Avigilon in 2011, most recently serving as Senior Vice President, Global Sales. He has been instrumental in the development and growth of Avigilon’s sales organization. Mr. Henderson has a proven track record of identifying new markets, developing and executing successful sales strategies, and driving sustainable growth. Corporate Highlights On February 16, 2016, the Company announced the launch of the Early Adopter Plan for the License Program. Under the Early Adopter Plan, the Company offered preferred license rates and terms to companies that entered into a patent license agreement with the Company prior to April 30, 2016. On May 26, 2016, the Company announced that it refreshed its shareholder rights plan (the “New Rights Plan”). The New Rights Plan replaces the Company’s prior shareholder rights plan dated January 12, 2016 (the “Prior Rights Plan”). The New Rights Plan, which was conditionally accepted by the Toronto Stock Exchange subject to approval by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by the Company’s shareholders at the Company’s Annual General and Special Meeting on June 23, 2016. The Company adopted the New Rights Plan to help maximize shareholder value in the event of an unsolicited take-over bid by providing additional time for the Company’s shareholders to consider the bid, and for the Board to explore, solicit, and consider strategic alternatives. The New Rights Plan is substantially similar to the Prior Rights Plan. The New Rights Plan was not adopted in response to, or in anticipation of, any offer or take-over bid. On August 22, 2016, the Company announced that its video surveillance cameras, network video recorders, and video management software helped to protect the 2016 Summer Olympic Games held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Avigilon Control Centre (“ACC”) video management software was used to help security personnel analyze and manage video data captured by surveillance cameras installed at venues and common areas throughout the 2016 Summer Olympic Games.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE In the third quarter of 2016, Avigilon had record revenue of $95.8 million, which was a 32% increase over the same period in 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, Avigilon’s revenue was $251.4 million, an increase of 22% over the same period in 2015. On a constant currency basis, revenue grew by 33% and 22%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, over the same periods in 2015. Revenue growth continued to outpace the industry and reflects increased unit volume as a result of the Pricing Adjustment (defined below), greater customer adoption in existing markets, further penetration of target regions, new product introductions, greater adoption of video analytics and increased contributions from the License Program. In the second quarter of 2016, Management reduced prices on the H3 camera line and select Network Video Recorders to drive unit volume and revenue, expand addressable market, and capture additional market share (the “Pricing Adjustment”). As a result of the Pricing Adjustment, gross margin as a percentage of revenue was strategically exchanged for greater unit volume, revenue, gross profit, and cash flow from operations. Operating expenses increased by 31% in the three months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015, and by 23% in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015. The increase in operating expenses is driven by an increase in R&D expenditures, an increase in amortization and depreciation, and increasing full-time personnel to support the Company’s global growth in all departments from 990 as at September 30, 2015 to 1,210 as at September 30, 2016. Historically, operating expenses have been seasonally affected by sales and marketing activities and overall hiring initiatives in the first half of the year benefiting operating leverage in the second half of the year. Since our initial public offering in November 2011 (the “IPO”), we have made significant investments in the Company to support growth and to help gain economies of scale; certain of these investments include the development of our US manufacturing facility, purchase of our new global headquarters, implementation of our ERP system, purchase and development of businesses and assets including our intellectual property portfolio, investments in new technology, increasing global headcount, innovative R&D work, and acquisitions of property, plant, equipment and computer software. These and other investments enabled the Company to achieve CAD$500 million in annual revenue run rate in the third quarter of 2016, achieving the five-year goal we published at our IPO. The aforementioned revenue run rate is calculated by annualizing our third quarter 2016 revenue of $95.8 million, and converting the product to CAD using the Bank of Canada third quarter 2016 average noon exchange rate of 1.3050. With most of our investments now complete, Management expects the amount of future investments to decrease over time compared with past quarters, as we leverage the investments we have made over the past five years to support continued growth while focusing on increasing profitability. On the innovation front, we have announced a number of key product introductions in 2016, including the following additions to our product portfolio: •

H4 camera line - The H4 camera line, available in bullet, camera and dome, delivers exceptional image quality while reducing bandwidth and storage requirements. The entire line embeds selflearning video analytics and integrates seamlessly with ACC video management software.



H4 Edge Solution (ES) camera line - The H4 ES camera line combines high-definition imaging, selflearning video analytics, network video recorder functionality, and embedded ACC software to create an all-in-one intelligent surveillance solution. The H4 ES Camera records directly to an onboard solid-state drive, and eliminates the need for a separate network video recorder which can help reduce installation and system costs.



H4 Fisheye camera line - The H4 Fisheye camera line is designed to provide a complete high resolution 360-degree panoramic view, eliminating blind spots. The H4 Fisheye is available in 6 and 12 megapixel camera resolutions, providing frame rates of up to 30 and 20 frames per second respectively.

H4 SL camera line - The H4 SL camera line is designed to provide exceptional image quality with an innovative modular design that is easy to install, reducing installation times by up to 50%. The H4 SL is versatile, video analytics-ready, and comes with multiple mounting options.



H4 PTZ dome camera line - the H4 PTZ dome camera line is designed to simultaneously cover wide areas and zoom in for finer details with a single camera. It combines high-speed tracking and 360 degree coverage with excellent image quality, low-light performance and video analytics.



Avigilon Appearance Search video analytics - Avigilon Appearance Search video analytics technology is a sophisticated search engine for video data.

At September 30, 2016, Avigilon held over 700 patent assets globally. FINANCIAL OUTLOOK Due to the effect of the Pricing Adjustment on unit volume and gross margin as a percentage of revenue, the Company’s fiscal year 2016 actual Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EPS may be materially lower, and the effective income tax rate may be materially different, than the Company’s guidance for fiscal year 2016 initially disclosed on March 1, 2016 (the “Guidance”). Because the elements of future oriented financial information contained in the Guidance are interconnected, a change to one such element may correspondingly affect one or more others. Accordingly, and for the reasons set out in this MD&A under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements”, undue reliance should not be placed on such information.

DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS Revenue The Company operates in one segment in which it designs, develops, and manufactures video analytics, network video management software and hardware, surveillance cameras, and access control solutions. Avigilon’s solutions are promoted by Avigilon sales staff and sold to a global network of dealers and integrators. Revenue growth reflects increased unit volume as a result of the Pricing Adjustment, greater customer adoption in existing markets, further penetration of target regions, new product introductions, greater adoption of video analytics and increased contributions from the License Program. This is consistent with our focus on revenue growth to establish Avigilon as a leading global technology provider. Revenue by Geographic Region Revenue is earned in five main regions: the US; Europe, Middle East and Africa; Asia Pacific; Canada; and Latin America.

In the second quarter of 2016, Avigilon implemented the Pricing Adjustment which helped drive revenue growth in all geographic regions. Adding to revenue growth in the third quarter of 2016 was greater customer adoption with year over year sales growth in all geographic regions, further penetration of new target regions such as Latin America, and sales of new products from our H4 Platform, including the H4, H4 Fisheye, H4 SL, and H4 ES camera lines and increased contributions from the License Program. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, revenue was strong across all regions, with year over year revenue growth over the same period in 2015 between 26% and 44%. Record quarterly revenue was achieved overall and for the US, Europe, Middle East and Africa, Canada and Latin America. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, revenue was strong across all regions, with year over year revenue growth over the same period in 2015 between 16% and 38%.

Revenues have historically experienced some seasonality, with the second and fourth quarters generally being the Company’s strongest quarters of the year for sequential revenue growth. The second quarter strength generally coincides with the ramp up of building and development cycles for the year, while the fourth quarter typically benefits from increased spending as annual budget cycles come to a close. Revenue also reflects the impact of foreign exchange. Other than USD, a portion of our revenue is denominated in Euro (“EUR”), British Pound Sterling (“GBP”) or CAD, depending on the region, although our exposure to the Euro is the most significant. Cost of Sales Cost of sales consists of the cost of materials and components, manufacturing, depreciation, labor and overhead costs, inventory obsolescence provisions and write-offs, warranty costs, product transportation costs, and other supply chain management costs.

Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue fluctuates quarterly due to changes in product mix, pricing, and foreign exchange rates. Gross Profit Gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased by $8.0 million and $12.4 million, respectively, over the same periods in 2015. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to the success of the H4 platform, the Pricing Adjustment, and the License Program. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by 6% and 6%, respectively, over the same periods in 2015 primarily due to the Pricing Adjustment. Over time, the Company expects gross margin to increase due to growing contributions from the License Program and greater economies of scale from leveraging our previous investments in our US manufacturing facility to support larger unit volumes from the Pricing Adjustment and increasing adoption of video analytics.

Gross margin percentages fluctuate quarterly due to changes in product mix, pricing, and foreign exchange rates. Management will continue to analyze pricing and gross margin to maximize competitiveness and profitability. Sales and Marketing Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses, advertising, trade shows and other promotional activities. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016 increased by $2.2 million, or 13%, over the same period in 2015. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, sales and marketing expenses increased by $5.9 million or 11% compared with the same period in 2015. The increase reflects investments to expand the Company’s global sales and marketing team and initiatives. Benefiting from previous investments, sales and marketing expenses decreased from 24% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to 20% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Management believes sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue will continue to decrease year over year as the Company focuses on increasing profitability, and benefits from efficiencies arising from the ERP system and economies of scale from its previous investments in global sales and marketing teams. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Avigilon Corporation - Management’s Discussion and Analysis Q3 2016

Sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue will fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to the timing of trade shows and other marketing initiatives. Research and Development R&D expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for software, firmware and hardware engineering and technical personnel, costs incurred on patent applications, prototypes and other materials and consumables used in product development. The Company incurs most of its R&D expenses in Canada and the US and receives Canadian Scientific Research and Experimental Development investment tax credits and US investment tax credits (“ITCs”) for certain eligible expenditures. ITCs related to capitalized development are recorded as a reduction of the cost of the associated asset. ITCs not related to capitalized development are netted against the Company’s R&D expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, gross R&D expenditures increased by $3.2 million and $6.8 million, respectively, over the same periods in 2015. Net R&D expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased by $1.6 million and $6.1 million, respectively, over the same periods in 2015. The year over year increase in gross R&D expense is consistent with the Company’s ongoing plan to further enhance and expand upon its product offerings and intellectual property portfolio. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the H4 SL camera line and H4 Fisheye camera line were added to our product offerings. Net R&D expenses are affected by capitalized development costs and ITCs, each of which fluctuate from quarter to quarter depending on the stage and number of products in development. ITCs of $0.3 million and $0.6 million were recorded as reductions of the cost of capitalized development assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Development costs are capitalized until such time as the related products are commercially launched, and are subsequently amortized over the respective expected product life.

R&D expenses are incurred in advance of the related revenue from new products. Gross R&D expense varies depending on the Company’s product development projects. The increase in R&D expenses is consistent with the Company’s ongoing strategy to lead the industry with superior technology in its product offerings in order to maintain its competitive advantage, and increase its addressable market. General and Administrative General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses consist of costs relating to salaries, information systems, customer and technical support, legal and finance functions, professional fees, insurance, facilities, and other corporate expenses. G&A expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased by $4.7 million and $6.7 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. As a percentage of revenue, G&A expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased by 2% and decreased by 1%, respectively, over the same periods in 2015. The increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to additional headcount, share-based payments and non-recurring costs. The nine month year over year decrease as a percentage of revenue is largely due to operating leverage on previous investments in additional personnel to support our business growth. Management expects the Company’s G&A expenses to increase at a slower rate over time as the Company focuses on increasing profitability. Three months ended September 30, 2016 2015 G&A % of revenue

The overall trend in quarterly increases in G&A relates to the Company’s previous investments in the support function of the organization. The decrease in the third and fourth quarters of 2015 was the result of the Company’s reorganization of its senior management team to streamline its reporting structure and increase operational efficiency. Management expects the Company’s G&A expenses as a percentage of revenue to decrease year over year as the Company focuses on increasing profitability, and benefits from previous investments such as the recently-implemented ERP system. Amortization and Depreciation Amortization and depreciation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased by $1.8 million and $4.6 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. Increases in amortization and depreciation in 2016 are primarily due to previous investments in, among other things, global sales offices, research and development, patent portfolio and the ERP system. As these investments are now completed, the Company plans to focus on increasing profitability. Three months ended September 30, 2016 2015 Amortization and depreciation % of revenue

Over the last eight quarters, amortization and depreciation expense has increased due to the additions of property, plant, and equipment, acquired intangible assets, and capitalized development costs in prior periods. Interest on Long-Term Debt For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company paid $1.0 million in cash interest and amortized $0.1 million of deferred financing costs. Interest of $0.3 million was capitalized during the period, resulting in net interest expense of $0.7 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company paid $2.7 million in cash interest and amortized $0.3 million of deferred financing costs. Interest of $0.9 million was capitalized during the period, resulting in net interest expense of $2.2 million.

The increase in cash interest paid from the second quarter of 2015 to the third quarter of 2016 was incurred to finance previous investments to scale our business. Management expects cash interest paid to decrease over time as we leverage these investments and focus on increasing profitability. Foreign Exchange The Company’s foreign exchange loss for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by $2.3 million, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company’s foreign exchange loss decreased by $7.0 million, compared to the same respective periods in 2015. The change is primarily driven by our change in functional currency and is mostly unrealized. Three months ended September 30, 2016 2015 Foreign exchange (loss) gain

The majority of the Company’s foreign exchange gain or loss amounts consists of unrealized foreign exchange and is primarily driven by the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The fluctuation of foreign exchange gain or loss is primarily driven by the USD’s appreciation or depreciation as measured against the CAD, EUR and GBP for each quarter.

and $4.1 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015. The Company’s worldwide effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was 33% and 46%, respectively, compared to 30% and 27%, respectively, for the same periods in 2015. The Company’s quarterly effective income tax rate is impacted by the jurisdictional split of taxable income and permanent differences between the tax and accounting bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities. There are a number of items that can significantly impact the Company’s worldwide effective income tax rate, including foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, earnings subject to tax in jurisdictions where the tax rate is different than the Canadian statutory rate, and granting of equity-based awards. As a result, the Company’s recorded tax provision can be significantly different from the expected tax provision calculated based on the Canadian statutory rate.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA increased by $2.3 million and decreased by $2.2 million, respectively, over the same periods in 2015. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was due primarily to increased unit volume as a result of the Pricing Adjustment, new product introductions, greater adoption of video analytics and increased contributions from the License Program. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, Adjusted EBITDA Margin decreased to 17% and 13%, respectively. Over time, the Company expects Adjusted EBITDA Margin to improve with new product introductions, economies of scale and reduced investments.

Management expects the Company’s operating expenses as a percentage of revenue to decrease year over year as the Company focuses on increasing profitability, and benefits from efficiencies arising from the ERP system and economies of scale. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, Adjusted EPS increased over the same period in 2015, primarily due to increased unit volume as a result of the Pricing Adjustment and increased contributions from the License Program.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the change in working capital of $3.4 million reflected the Pricing Adjustment and the resultant impact of increased unit volume on inventory and accounts receivable, an increase in trade and other payables of $8.2 million, offset by an increase in prepaids of $0.4 million. As part of our operating activities, $2.8 million of cash was paid in income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, net cash from operating activities increased by $17.1 million, or 242%, respectively, over the same period in 2015. The increase is the result of increased contributions from the License Program, the Pricing Adjustment, and the resultant record unit volume. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $23.7 million and comprised the following: additions of $12.8 million to intangible assets primarily related to additions to capitalized development costs and costs related to implementing the ERP system; and additions of $10.9 million to property, plant and equipment primarily related to construction for our future global headquarters in Vancouver, equipment related to the ERP system, sales and demonstration equipment, and worldwide leasehold improvements. Cash from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $15.9 million and comprised the following: proceeds of $30.0 million from long-term debt; proceeds of $1.0 million from the exercise of incentive stock options (“Options”); offset by repayment of $12.0 million of long-term debt; and payment of $2.7 million of interest on long-term debt. In addition to available net working capital, at September 30, 2016 we had available the multi-tranche senior secured syndicated credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which included a $100 million multi-currency revolving acquisition facility (the “Acquisition Facility”), a $100 million multi-currency revolving line (the “Revolver”), and a $40 million real estate term loan (the “Real Estate Loan”). As at September 30, 2016, $56.2 million was drawn on the Acquisition Facility, $22.4 million was drawn on the Real Estate Loan, and $30.0 million was drawn on the Revolver, all of which bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin of between 2.25% and 2.50% for the period from January 1, 2016 to September 30, 2016. As at September 30, 2016, $131.3 million was undrawn on the Credit Facility. We expect our working capital needs to continue growing with our sales. We believe that our ongoing operations and associated cash flows, in addition to our cash resources and the Credit Facility, will provide

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Avigilon Corporation - Management’s Discussion and Analysis Q3 2016

Page 20

sufficient liquidity to continue financing our planned growth in the near term, and that we will have access to additional debt and equity capital as we grow to support further expansion. CAPITAL RESOURCES We define capital as debt and shareholders’ equity. Our objective when managing capital is to provide sufficient resources to meet day-to-day operating requirements, and to enhance and develop new product offerings and expand operations. In managing our capital structure, we take into consideration various factors, including the growth of our business and related infrastructure and the up-front cost of taking on new customers. Management is responsible for managing capital and do so through quarterly meetings and regular review of financial information. The Board is responsible for overseeing this process. We manage our resources while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of debt and equity balances. The Credit Facility contains restrictive covenants that affect the manner in which the Company may structure or operate its business, including by limiting the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness, create liens, sell assets, make capital expenditures, and engage in acquisitions, mergers, or restructurings. The Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. As at September 30, 2016, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of the Credit Facility, which consist of a leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the Credit Facility. Subject to the leverage ratio, the Company may be required to make certain mandatory repayments. As at September 30, 2016, the Company was also in compliance with the restrictive covenants of the Credit Facility. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS In the normal course of business, we enter into contracts that give rise to commitments for future minimum payments. The Company has such obligations under the Credit Facility and operating leases for its office and manufacturing premises. As at September 30, 2016, the obligations under the Credit Facility incurred in addition to those disclosed in our consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2015 are as follows:

Long-term debt - the Revolver

Less than 1 year

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we incurred capital expenditures of $6.6 million and $19.0 million, respectively, including property, plant and equipment and computer software additions. In 2016 we have made capital investments in, among other things, manufacturing facilities, global sales offices, research and development, and the ERP system. As these investments are now complete, Management expects capital expenditures in 2017 to decrease year over year as we leverage previous investments to support business growth and focus on increasing profitability. As of the date of this MD&A, we have no formal commitments for material capital expenditures. CAPITAL STRUCTURE AND OUTSTANDING SHARE DATA As at November 10, 2016, the Company has 43,595,610 common shares issued and outstanding. We maintain an Incentive Security Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) that enables us to grant Options and Restricted Share Units (“RSUs” and, collectively with Options, “Compensation Securities”) to Directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. The Incentive Plan permits the granting of Compensation Securities up to an aggregate maximum of 10% of our issued and outstanding common shares from time _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Avigilon Corporation - Management’s Discussion and Analysis Q3 2016

Page 21

to time on a non-diluted basis, provided that the maximum number of RSUs that may be granted thereunder is further limited to 5% of our issued and outstanding common shares from time to time on a non-diluted basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we granted 92,500 and 937,500 Options, respectively, and 340,806 and 534,471 RSUs, respectively. The common shares, Options and RSUs outstanding and exercisable as at the following dates are shown below: September 30, 2016

Other Related Party Transactions Other related parties include a company owned by a Director of the Company. Transactions with such parties are conducted on a normal commercial basis, including terms and prices. The aggregate value of transactions with other related parties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows: Three months ended September 30, 2016 2015 Sale of goods and services

At September 30, 2016, $0.1 million (December 31, 2015 - $0.1 million) of sales to a related party were included in trade and other receivables. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and long-term debt. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments or the indexed rate of interest on the bank debt. The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to minimize exposure to foreign currencies. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred an unrealized loss on foreign exchange contracts of $0.1 million (2015 - $1.0 million). At September 30, 2016 the fair value of the foreign exchange contracts was a net liability of $0.1 million (December 31, 2015 - net liability of $0.4 million), presented within trade and other payables. The Company’s financial instruments are discussed in greater detail in the Company’s MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015. There have been no substantial changes to the composition of or risks associated with these financial instruments since December 31, 2015.

JUDGMENTS AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES The preparation of the Financial Statements requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are based upon Management’s historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed by Management to be reasonable under the circumstances, and are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from the estimates under different assumptions and conditions, and may materially affect financial results of the Company’s statement of financial position reported in future periods. The judgments, estimates and assumptions made by Management are the same as those applied and disclosed in the Company’s MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Avigilon Corporation Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 (In thousands of United States dollars, except with respect to per share amounts, number of shares, and as otherwise stated)

1.

Nature of operations Avigilon Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act and provides trusted security solutions to the global market. The Company designs, develops, and manufactures video analytics, network video management software and hardware, surveillance cameras, and access control solutions. The Company’s solutions have been installed at thousands of customer sites, including school campuses, transportation systems, healthcare centers, public venues, critical infrastructure, prisons, factories, casinos, airports, financial institutions, government facilities, and retailers. The Company’s head office is located at 4th Floor - 858 Beatty Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6B 1C1. The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 2900 - 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 0A3.

2.

Basis of presentation (a) Statement of compliance These condensed consolidated interim financial statements (“interim financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) as applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, as set out in International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Company’s financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015. The interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 14, 2016. (b) Change in functional currency Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its functional currency from Canadian dollars (“CAD”) to United States (“US”) dollars (“USD”). The Company applied the change in functional currency on a prospective basis. This change reflects the Company’s financing and operating activities, which are now primarily carried out in USD as a result of increased sales denominated in USD, the ramping up of the Company’s US manufacturing facility and USD draws on the Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7). As a result, the Company’s functional currency is now the same as its presentation currency, which is discussed in more detail under Note 3(c). (c) Judgments and estimates In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Company’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are made prospectively. The judgments, estimates and assumptions made by management in preparing these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015.

3.

Significant accounting policies The accounting policies in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015 except as noted below. New accounting policies (a) Change in inventory costing Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its inventory costing methodology from first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) to weighted average cost (“WAC”), as a result of the implementation of its new enterprise resource planning system. This change more accurately reflects the current value of inventory, which provides for a better matching of cost of sales to revenue. The effect on current and prior periods of changing the inventory costing method from FIFO to WAC is not material. (b) Change in sales return provision Effective April 1, 2016, the Company changed its sales return provision policy. Subsequent to that date, for all adjustments to revenue with respect to estimated future sales returns, the Company has made an offsetting adjustment to cost of sales to reflect the expected value of goods to be returned. The Company implemented this change to more accurately reflect the impact on gross margin of estimated future sales returns. The effect on current and prior periods of the change in the sales return provision policy is not material. (c) Change in presentation currency Effective January 1, 2016, the Company changed its presentation currency from CAD to USD to better reflect the Company’s business activities and to improve investors’ ability to compare the Company’s financial results with other publicly traded industry participants. In making the change in presentation currency, the Company followed the guidance set out in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. The cumulative translation reserves were set to nil at January 1, 2010, the date of transition to IFRS. The cumulative translation reserves and all comparative information have been restated to reflect the Company’s results as if they had been historically reported in USD at that date.

(b) Issued share capital As at September 30, 2016, issued share capital comprised 43,595,610 common shares (December 31, 2015 43,231,653). During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, 218,500 (2015 - 403,270) incentive stock options (“Options”) were exercised at a weighted average price of CAD$6.23 (2015 - CAD$7.50) per Option, which resulted in the issuance of 218,500 (2015 - 403,270) common shares and the transfer of $380 (2015 - $937) from the equity compensation reserve to share capital. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, 145,457 (2015 - 22,409) restricted share units (“RSUs”) vested, which resulted in the issuance of 145,457 (2015 - 22,409) common shares and the transfer of $2,028 (2015 - $407) from the equity compensation reserve to share capital.

9.

Share-based payment transactions The Company has adopted an amended and restated incentive security plan (the “Incentive Plan”) which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on June 26, 2014. The Incentive Plan permits the granting of equity-based awards, including Options and RSUs, to Directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. The maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance on redemption of all equity-based awards under the Incentive Plan is limited to 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares from time to time on a non-diluted basis, provided that the maximum number of common shares reserved for issuance on redemption of RSUs is limited to 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares from time to time on a non-diluted basis.

Share-based payment transactions (continued) (a) Options The terms and conditions for acquiring and exercising Options are set by the Board of Directors, including the number of Options granted, the exercise price, the term and the vesting conditions of the Options. The Options generally vest between 0 and 60 months from the date of grant and have a maximum term of 10 years. The fair value of services received in return for Options granted is based on the fair value of Options granted, measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The changes in Options during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows: September 30, 2016

The weighted average grant date fair value of an Option granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was CAD$5.80 (2015 - CAD$8.19) per share. The fair value of the Options has been measured using the BlackScholes option pricing model. The weighted average fair value assumptions for Option grants made were as follows: Nine months ended September 30, 2016 2015 Forfeiture rate Weighted average share price at grant date (CAD) Average risk-free interest rate Expected life Annualized volatility Dividend yield

13. Seasonality Revenues have historically experienced some seasonality, with the second and fourth quarters generally being the Company’s strongest quarters of the year for sequential revenue growth. The second quarter strength generally coincides with the ramp up of building and development cycles for the year, while the fourth quarter typically benefits from increased spending as annual budget cycles come to a close.

14. Capital management The Company’s primary capital management objective is to deploy an efficient capital structure in order to maximize long-term shareholder value. In addition, the Company aims to ensure sufficient liquidity to support its operational and strategic plans and to maintain adequate liquidity reserves to allow the Company to manage any unforeseen risks, and act on opportunities. The Company’s capital comprises debt and equity, the book value of which was $338,991 at September 30, 2016 (December 31, 2015 - $303,808). The Company’s senior management is responsible for managing the Company’s capital, and does so through quarterly meetings and regular review of relevant financial information. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing this process. The Credit Facility contains restrictive covenants that affect the manner in which the Company may structure or operate its business, including by limiting the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness, create liens, sell assets, make capital expenditures, and engage in acquisitions, mergers, or restructuring. The Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. 15. Financial instruments The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and long-term debt. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments or the indexed rate of interest on the bank debt. A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. When measuring the fair value of an asset or liability, the Company uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy, based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques, as follows: •

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.



Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).



Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorized in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the period during which the change has occurred. The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to minimize exposure to foreign currencies. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred an unrealized loss on foreign exchange contracts of $104 (2015 - $1,040). At September 30, 2016, the fair value of the foreign exchange contracts was a net liability of $104 (December 31, 2015 - net liability of $370), presented within trade and other payables.
