ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

On February 27, 2015, PCTEL, Inc. (“PCTEL” or “the Company”), acquired substantially all of the assets of, and assumed certain specified liabilities of, Nexgen Wireless, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Nexgen”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of February 27, 2015 (the “Acquisition Agreement”) among PCTEL, Nexgen, Bhumika Thakkar 2012 Irrevocable Trust Number One, Bhumika Thakkar 2012 Irrevocable Trust Number Two, and Jigar Thakkar (collectively, such trusts and Mr. Thakkar are the “Nexgen Shareholders”), and Bhumika Thakkar (collectively with Nexgen and the Nexgen Shareholders, the “Nexgen Parties”).

The business of Nexgen is based in Schaumburg, Illinois. Nexgen provides Meridian™, a network analysis tool portfolio, and engineering services. Nexgen’s Meridian software product portfolio translates real-time network performance data into engineering actions to optimize operator performance. Meridian, with its modules of Network IQ™, Subscriber IQ™, and Map IQ™, supports crowd-based, cloud-based data analysis to enhance network performance. Nexgen provides performance engineering, specialized staffing, and trend analysis for carriers, infrastructure vendors, and neutral hosts for 2G, 3G, 4G, and LTE networks.

The purchase price was $20.5 million in cash paid at the closing of the transaction, with a potential performance-based earn-out valued at up to $2.0 million, which brings the total potential consideration to $22.5 million. The earn-out is dependent on the achievement of revenue-based goals pertaining to the acquired business for the period commencing on March 1, 2015 and ending on April 30, 2016. The cash consideration paid was provided from PCTEL’s existing cash. The assets acquired consisted primarily of intellectual property (including trade names), working capital (accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities), fixed assets and customer relationships.

The Company does not have any material relationship with the Nexgen Parties, other than in respect of the Acquisition Agreement and the transactions provided for therein.

Under the Acquisition Agreement, the Nexgen Parties are required to indemnify PCTEL against losses resulting from breaches of representations and warranties contained in the Acquisition Agreement, breaches of various covenants contained in the Acquisition Agreement and liabilities of Nexgen not explicitly assumed by PCTEL. The indemnification obligations relating to representations and warranties generally survive until September 30, 2016, with certain exceptions as to which longer survival periods apply. An escrow arrangement has been established under the Acquisition Agreement for the benefit of PCTEL to provide security for a portion of the indemnification obligations. The Nexgen Parties are bound by non-competition covenants under the Acquisition Agreement, which generally survive until February 27, 2019.

PCTEL will continue the employment of 160 employees of Nexgen. Mr. Thakkar will remain with the acquired business as PCTEL’s newly-appointed Vice President, Network Analytics, under an employment arrangement that includes non-competition covenants for the duration of his employment with PCTEL and for 12 months thereafter (which covenants are in addition to his non-competition covenants under the Acquisition Agreement described above). PCTEL has assumed Nexgen’s existing lease for Nexgen’s facility and offices in Schaumburg, Illinois and will operate the acquired business from that location.

A copy of the Acquisition Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference into this Current Report. The description of the Acquisition Agreement set forth above is only a summary of the material terms of that agreement and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Acquisition Agreement.

A copy of the Company’s press release dated March 2, 2015 announcing the acquisition is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

ITEM 9.01 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired.

PCTEL will file financial statements for the acquired business, as required under Item 9.01 of Form 8-K, as soon as practicable pending reconciliation of such financial statements to the requirements of United States generally accepted accounting principles, and in any event not later than 71 days after the date on which this Current Report was required to be filed pursuant to Item 2.01 of Form 8-K.

(b) Based on the entries set forth in the Closing Statement, the following adjustments (“Post-Closing Adjustment”) shall be made:

If such dispute is not resolved to the mutual satisfaction of Buyer and Seller within such fifteen (15) day period, each of Seller and Buyer shall have the right to require that such dispute be submitted to an independent certified public accounting firm as Seller and Buyer shall then agree in writing (the “Independent Accountant”).

The Independent Accountant shall resolve the computation or verification of the disputed Closing Statement entries in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and otherwise where applicable in accordance with GAAP. If any matters have been submitted to the Independent Accountant for review and resolution in accordance with the preceding provisions, then Seller and Buyer shall request that the Independent Accountant complete its preparation of the Closing Statement within thirty (30) days from the submission of the matters specified in such Notice of Disagreement, and deliver a copy of the Closing Statement to Seller and Buyer, together with a report setting forth each disputed adjustment or matter and the Independent Accountant’s determination with respect thereto. The Independent Accountant’s determination will be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) If the amount of the Purchase Price owed by Buyer to Seller increases or is reduced as a result of the Post-Closing Adjustments, Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall make appropriate payments to the other within ten (10) days of the later of: (i) the expiration of the Objection Period, (ii) the date on which Buyer and Seller agree on the Post-Closing Adjustments, and (iii) the date on which the decision of the Independent Accountant is rendered.

The parties hereto shall preserve and keep, or cause to be preserved and kept, all original Books and Records related to the Business and any copies thereof in their possession for the longer of (a) any applicable statute of limitations and (b) a period of five (5) years from the Closing Date. During such five-year or longer period, representatives of Seller, Buyer and their respective Affiliates shall, upon reasonable notice and for any reasonable business purpose, (including in connection with any action to which such other parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates are parties or in connection with the requirements of any Law applicable to such other parties hereto or any of their respective Affiliates) have access during normal business hours to examine, inspect and copy such Books and Records retained by the other party, except as determined in good faith by the party from which information is sought to be necessary to (i) ensure compliance with any applicable Law, (ii) preserve any applicable privilege (including the attorney-client privilege), or (iii) comply with any contractual confidentiality obligations.

9.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All Seller representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement, the Schedules, the supplements, if any, to the Schedules, the certificates delivered pursuant to Sections 7.1(d), 7.2(d) and any other Ancillary Agreement shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to Section 9.5.

9.2 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, the Seller Parties, jointly and severally, will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer, its successors and permitted assigns, and its and their officers, directors, employees, agents, and other representatives, including legal and financial advisors (the “Buyer Indemnitees”), and will reimburse Buyer Indemnitees for all Damages sustained or incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee, as a result of or arising out of or by virtue of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by any Seller Party to Buyer in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement delivered by Seller to Buyer in connection herewith;

(b) the breach by any Seller Party of, or failure of any Seller Party to comply with, any covenants or obligations under this Agreement to be performed by such Seller Party;

(d) any Taxes imposed upon one or more of the Seller Parties or the pre-closing operation of the Business, except to the extent such Taxes are included in the Net Working Capital; or

(e) without regard to the fact that any act or failure to act referred to in this subsection (e) may be disclosed in a Schedule or in any documents included or referred to therein, or may be otherwise known to the Buyer on the Closing Date, any action or failure to act, in whole or in part, on or prior to the Closing Date, with respect to any Benefit Plan maintained by the Seller that is a group health plan, to the extent the Buyer assumes the sponsorship of, and/or any insurance policies funding, such Employee Benefit Plan.

Further, Seller shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold the Buyer Indemnitees harmless, as the case may be, for any Damages incurred or sustained by such Buyer Indemnitees, directly or indirectly, as a result of intentional misrepresentation or fraud committed by Seller and/or any Seller Party, regardless of when such fraud was discovered.

The aggregate liability of Seller to the Buyer Indemnitees with respect to claims for indemnification for breaches of representations and warranties under Section 9.2(a) shall not exceed Five Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($5,500,000) (the “Cap”); provided, however, that neither the Cap nor the Threshold shall apply to Damages arising from (i) any intentional misrepresentation or fraud, or (ii) any breach of the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.1, 5.3, 5.8 and 5.15.

Except as otherwise provided herein, Seller shall have no liability with respect to claims for indemnification for breaches of representations and warranties under Section 9.2(a) or otherwise until the total of all Damages with respect to such matters exceeds $40,000 (the “Threshold”), but if the aggregate amount of such Damages exceeds the Threshold, then Seller shall be liable for the amount of such Damages beginning with the first dollar of Damages up to the Cap (or as otherwise contemplated in the preceding paragraph of this Section 9.2).

9.3 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article IX, Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Parties, their successors and permitted assigns, and their officers, directors, employees, agents, and other representatives, including legal and financial advisors (the “Seller Indemnitees”), and will reimburse each of Seller Indemnitees for any Damages, arising from or in connection with: (a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer to Seller in this Agreement or in any closing document delivered to Seller in connection herewith; (b) the breach by Buyer of, or failure of Buyer to comply with, any of the covenants or obligations under this Agreement to be performed by Buyer; or (c) the failure to discharge when due any Assumed Liability.

9.4 Escrow Arrangements; Claims for Indemnification.

(a) Escrow Fund. By virtue of this Agreement and as security for the indemnity provided in this Article IX, concurrent with the Closing, Buyer shall deposit with the Escrow Agent Two Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand U.S. Dollars ($2,250,000) from the Purchase Price to be held by Escrow Agent, together with any interest or income earned thereon, as an escrow fund (“Escrow Fund”), and governed by the terms set forth herein and the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Fund shall be available to compensate Buyer and/or any Buyer Indemnitees for any claims of such parties for any Damages suffered or incurred by them and for which they are entitled to recovery as provided in this Article IX (subject to Buyer’s obligation to take all commercially reasonable good faith efforts to mitigate any such Damages), provided that Buyer shall not be required to take any action that Buyer determines in good faith is not in the best interests of the business of Buyer.

(b) Escrow Period; Distribution of Remaining Escrow Fund. Subject to the requirements set forth below, the Escrow Fund shall be in existence immediately following the Closing and shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. Central time on the nine (9) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”), provided, however, that the Escrow Fund shall not terminate with respect to any amount in respect of any unsatisfied claims that have been properly made prior to the Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Assuming that there are no unsatisfied claims (as referenced in the preceding sentence), promptly following the Expiration Date (and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the Expiration Date), the remaining portion of the Escrow Fund shall be distributed to Seller. In the event that there is an unsatisfied claim, as soon as the Escrow Agent receives written notice that any such claim has been resolved in accordance with Section 9.4(e), the Escrow Agent shall deliver to Seller the remaining portion of the Escrow Fund not required to satisfy such claims. Unless Seller shall have delivered an Objection Notice pursuant to Section 9.4(d) hereof, the Escrow Agent shall, on the first Business Day after the 30th day following its receipt of the Claim Notice, deliver to the Indemnified Party from the Escrow Fund an amount equal to the Damages set forth in such Claim Notice. Escrow Agent shall hold and safeguard the Escrow Fund during the Escrow Period, shall treat such Escrow Fund as a trust fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement and not as the property of Seller, Buyer or any third party, Indemnified Party or any Indemnifying Party, and shall hold and dispose of the Escrow Fund only in accordance with the terms of this Article IX and the Escrow Agreement. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on such written instructions and distribute funds from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the provisions of the written instructions issued pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, and this Agreement.

(c) Claims for Indemnification. In order to seek indemnification under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, a Person making a claim for indemnification (each, an “Indemnified Party”) shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”), and if such claim involves a claim against the Escrow Fund, to the Escrow Agent at any time on or before 5:00 p.m. Central time on the Expiration Date; provided, however, following the Expiration Date a Person making a claim for indemnification shall deliver a Claim Notice on or before the expiration of any applicable Survival Date. No amounts shall be payable with respect to any Damages until such Damages have been actually paid, sustained or incurred by the Indemnified Party, agreed to by the Indemnifying Party, or determined by a final, non-appealable order, judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) Objections to Claims for Indemnification. No payment shall be made from the Escrow Fund under Section 9.4(b) if Seller shall object to the claim made in the Claim Notice in a written statement labeled “Objection Notice” (an “Objection Notice”), and such Objection Notice shall have been received by Buyer and the Escrow Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. Central time on the thirtieth (30^th) day after its receipt of the Claim Notice. If Seller does not object in writing within such 30-day period, payment in respect of such Damages shall thereafter be made from the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 9.4(b).

(e) Resolution of Conflicts.

(i) If Seller delivers an Objection Notice in accordance with Section 9.4(d) or an Indemnifying Party disputes the claim for indemnification by delivery of an

Objection Notice on or before the thirtieth (30^th) day after receipt of a Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall attempt in good faith, for a period of thirty (30) days, to agree upon the rights of the respective Parties with respect to each of such claims. If they should so agree, and such claim involves a claim against the Escrow Fund, written instructions setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by each of Buyer and Seller and furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such written instructions and make distributions from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

(ii) If such claim is not resolved within the 30-day period identified in Section 9.4(e)(i), either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may submit the contested portion of the indemnification claim to binding arbitration in Chicago, Illinois in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect. Arbitration will be conducted by one (1) arbitrator, mutually selected by the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party fail to mutually select an arbitrator within fifteen (15) business days after the contested portion of the indemnification claim is submitted to arbitration, then the arbitrator shall be selected by JAMS in accordance with its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the arbitration hearing to be conducted within seventy-five (75) days after the appointment of the arbitrator, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the decision of the arbitrator to be furnished within fifteen (15) days after the conclusion of the arbitration hearing. The arbitrator’s authority shall be confined to whether the Indemnified Party is entitled to recover on the indemnification claim (or a portion thereof), and the portion of such indemnification claim the Indemnified Party is entitled to recover. Each Party shall be required to bear and pay its respective attorneys’ fees and other expenses relating to the arbitration. The final decision of the arbitrator shall include the dollar amount of the award to the Indemnified Party, if any (the “Award Amount”), and shall be furnished, in writing, to the Buyer, Seller, the Indemnified Party and if such Claim involves a claim against the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent, and shall constitute a conclusive determination of the issues in question, binding upon Seller, Buyer, and the Indemnified Party. Upon receipt by the Escrow Agent of the final decision of the arbitrator as to the Award Amount, the Escrow Agent shall release to the Buyer Indemnitee from the Escrow Fund an amount equal to the Award Amount.

(f) Third Party Claims. In the event an Indemnified Party receives notice of a third party claim that Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in a demand for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX (a “Third Party Claim”), Indemnified Party shall promptly, and in any event within 10 business days after receipt by the Indemnified Party of notice of the Third Party Claim, notify the Escrow Agent by delivering a copy of a Claim Notice (if the Third Party Claim is made by a Buyer Indemnitee prior to the release of the Escrow Fund and may result in a claim against the Escrow Fund) and the Indemnifying Party in writing of such claim by delivery of a Claim Notice; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Article IX, except to the extent such delay actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party. Thereafter, Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party promptly, and in any event within 5 business days, after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof,

copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that no delay on the part of Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation under this Article IX, except to the extent such delay actually prejudices the Indemnifying Party.

At any time after receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnified Party so long as (i) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and the Third Party Claim does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, and (ii) the Third Party Claim does not relate to or otherwise arise in connection with any criminal action. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. The party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes, based on advice from counsel, that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests with respect to such Third Party Claim, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party solely in connection therewith shall be considered “Damages” for purposes of this Agreement. In no event shall the Indemnifying Party be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one (1) counsel for all Indemnified Parties. The Party controlling such defense shall keep the other Party advised of the status of such Third Party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other Party with respect thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to enter into a settlement without the consent of the Indemnified Party provided that such settlement does not impose any obligation on the Indemnified Party other than the payment of monies that are readily measurable for purposes of determining the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party.

The Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to or agree to any settlement of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that in such event the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to or agree to any settlement of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Indemnified Party shall, at the Indemnifying Party’s request, reasonably cooperate in the defense of the matter, including making available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party, subject to such reasonable confidentiality requirements as the Indemnified Party may request and any applicable privilege protections.

9.5 Survival of Representations; Indemnity Periods. The representations and warranties in this Agreement made by Seller will survive the Closing Date for a period of eighteen (18) months, except that: (a) with respect to matters covered by Section 5.15, such representations and warranties shall survive for forty-five (45) days after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations; (b) the post-closing covenants of the Seller Parties contained in Article Viii shall survive for the period specified; (c) warranties, covenants and agreements that are the subject of intentional misrepresentation or fraud shall survive until forty-five (45) days

after the expiration of all applicable statutes of limitations with respect to matters covered thereby; and (d) with respect to matters covered by Section 5.18 that are subject to Section 9.2(e), the representations and warranties made by Seller will survive the Closing Date for a period of the applicable statute of limitations (as applicable, the “Survival Date”). All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the Closing and shall continue to remain in full force and effect in perpetuity after the Closing Date, unless they terminate earlier in accordance with their express terms.

9.6 Purchase Price Adjustments. Amounts paid to or on behalf of any person as indemnification under this Agreement shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

9.7 Exclusive Remedies. Other than with respect to any equitable remedies contemplated by Section 8.3 or intentional misrepresentation or fraud, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the indemnification provisions of Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of any Seller Indemnitee and any Buyer Indemnitee, respectively, for any Damages (including any Damages from claims for breach of contract, warranty, and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or otherwise) that it may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with, the Business, the Purchased Assets, any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by any Party, or any failure by a Party to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party hereby irrevocably waives any right of rescission such Party may otherwise have or to which such Party may become entitled.

9.8 Mitigation of Damages. Each Indemnified Party shall take, and shall cause its Affiliates to take, steps to mitigate any Damages as is required by applicable law.

10.5 Earn-Out Dispute Resolution. If Seller delivers a timely Earn-Out Dispute Notice, then the Seller and Buyer shall resolve the dispute in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Section 4.4(c) of this Agreement as if references therein to “Notice of Disagreement” were to reference “Earn-Out Dispute Notice”, references to “Closing Statement” were to “Earn-Out Statement” and references to “Post-Closing Adjustment” were to reference the adjustment to the Earn-Out Consideration.

PCTEL Acquires Nexgen Wireless

Establishes Presence in Network Analytic Tools

Expands Engineering Services

BLOOMINGDALE, Ill.– March 2, 2015 —PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCTI), a leader in Performance Critical Telecom solutions, announced today that it had acquired the assets of Nexgen Wireless, Inc., a Schaumburg, Illinois-based company providing Meridian™, a network analysis tool portfolio, and engineering services. Nexgen’s industry-leading Meridian software product portfolio translates real-time network performance data into engineering actions that optimize operator performance. Meridian, with its modules of Network IQ™, Subscriber IQ™, and Map IQ™, sets the stage for crowd-based, cloud-based data analysis that delivers immediate impact to network performance. Nexgen provides performance engineering, specialized staffing, and trend analysis for carriers, infrastructure vendors, and neutral hosts. They apply their products and services in 2G, 3G, 4G, and LTE networks. The combination of Meridian and network engineering expertise has distinguished Nexgen Wireless in the telecommunications industry.

PCTEL paid $20.5 million at the closing with an additional $2 million in cash incentives for performance of the newly acquired software business. In addition to $22.5 million in total cash consideration, there are additional stock incentives for the executive team that vest over four years. Revised 2015 revenue guidance will be discussed during this morning’s PCTEL earnings conference call (7:30 a.m. CST).

“Integrating the Meridian product portfolio and Nexgen’s extensive engineering services into PCTEL establishes a national engineering services operation and permits us to deliver greater value to our traditional customers,” said Marty Singer. “We will add real-time engineering data and analysis to our product offer and direct more of our efforts into crowd-based, cloud-based data that facilitates the design of complex in-building and small cell networks. We are delighted to have John Thakkar, Nexgen’s founder and CEO, join PCTEL’s executive team. Together, we will take PCTEL to the next level,” added Singer.

“When we founded Nexgen, our longer term goal was to expand our capabilities through strategic relationships,” said John Thakkar, PCTEL’s newly appointed Vice President, Network Analytics. “The opportunity to integrate our products and services with PCTEL’s IBflex™, small cell antennas, and engineering services will result in innovative

approaches to improving the performance of small cell and in-building networks. My goal, as part of the PCTEL team, is to establish a meaningful subscription-based operation that will allow carriers to take full advantage of rich network data,” added Thakkar.

Thakkar will lead the development of the Meridian product portfolio and drive software as a service (SaaS). All of the Nexgen Wireless assets will be integrated into PCTEL’s RF Solutions Group. David Neumann is the Senior Vice President and General Manager of RFS. The acquisition includes 160 full-time employees and expanded capabilities in indoor and outdoor testing, software development, data storage and analysis, and subject matter experts contracted by carriers and infrastructure vendors. PCTEL has approximately 620 employees worldwide. The Nexgen Wireless team will continue to operate out of its Schaumburg facility.

Wunderlich Securities, Inc. served as financial advisor to PCTEL on this transaction.
