[1] In Fiscal 2014, Digital Turbine, Inc. did not convert or assume any options in connection with business acquisitions
[2] For options vested and expected to vest, options exercisable, and options outstanding, the aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between Digital Turbine's closing stock price on March 31, 2015 and the exercise price multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had the holders exercised their options on March 31, 2015. The intrinsic value changes based on changes in the price of Digital Turbine's common stock.
