Earnings per Share
 
In calculating basic income per share, net income is divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased by the effect of dilutive stock options and stock purchase warrants using the treasury stock method.  No such conversion is assumed where the effect is anti-dilutive, such as when there is a net loss from operations or when the exercise price of the potentially dilutive securities is greater than the market value of the Company’s stock.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2011 there were stock options outstanding to acquire 1,875,876  shares of the Company’s common stock, and stock warrants to purchase 30,000 shares of common stock which were excluded from the calculation of its diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  Stock options to purchase 2,901,905 shares of common stock and stock warrants to purchase 165,000 shares of common stock that were outstanding at September 30, 2010 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2010 because the Company had a net loss from operations and the impact of the assumed exercise of the stock options and warrants is anti-dilutive.

Deferred Tax Asset
 
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance, we use the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and, in particular, any valuation allowance that is recorded or released against our deferred tax assets.
 
We continue to evaluate quarterly the positive and negative evidence regarding the realization of net deferred tax assets. The carrying value of our net deferred tax assets is based on our belief that it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize these deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance has been established for some of our net deferred tax asset as we do not believe it meets the “more likely than not” criteria. Our judgments regarding future taxable income may change due to changes in market conditions, changes in tax laws or other factors. If any of the assumptions and related estimates change in the future, it may increase or decrease the valuation allowance and related income tax expense in the same period.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2009, recurring annual profits for previous periods allowed the Company to determine that it was not in a cumulative loss position. Based on this positive evidence, we concluded that it was more likely than not that some of the Company’s net deferred tax asset would be realizable. As a result, a $1.1 million reduction in the net deferred tax valuation allowance was recorded in 2009. For purposes of assessing realizability of the deferred tax assets, a projected cumulative financial reporting loss position is considered significant negative evidence the Company will not be able to fully realize the deferred tax assets in the future. The Company reviews a rolling thirty-six month calculation of earnings to determine if the Company is in a cumulative loss position. As of September 30, 2011, the Company is not in a net cumulative loss position. Our judgments regarding future taxable income may change due to changes in market conditions, changes in tax laws, operating results or other factors.

Uncertain Income Tax Positions
 
In accordance with FASB guidance, we account for uncertainty in income taxes, using a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step requires us to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as we have to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. We re-evaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. This evaluation is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, effectively settled issues under audit, and new audit activity. Such a change in recognition and measurement would result in recognition of a tax benefit and/or an additional charge to the tax provision.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) allowing an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is necessary to perform the traditional two-step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of impairment loss to be recognized (if any). If, after performing the qualitative assessment, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then no further impairment testing is necessary. The qualitative assessment includes assessing relevant events and circumstances such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, relevant entity-specific events, events affecting a reporting unit or a sustained decrease in share price. The ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.

ACQUISITION OF ASSETS

Effective January 1, 2011, the Company acquired certain assets of Tejas Video Partners, LTD (“Tejas”), an owner and operator of unattended DVD rental kiosks.  Under the terms of the agreement, the Company acquired the right, title, and interest in a merchant contract, DVD inventories and certain computer equipment for approximately $1,481,000.  The purchase price consists of approximately $1,375,000 in cash (with $875,000 paid at closing and $500,000 paid on April 14, 2011) and $106,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to restrictions.  In addition to the base purchase price, for a period of five years following the closing, the Company will pay an additional purchase price (“Earn-out”) to Tejas of $3,500 for each new DVD kiosk site that is (i) installed by the Company pursuant to an acquired customer agreement, and (ii) which site generates $2,000 or more of gross revenues for any calendar month (the “Earn-out Threshold”).  The Earn-out will be paid by the Company on an annual basis, within forty-five days of each of the first five anniversaries following the closing.  Each annual payment will be calculated based on newly installed kiosks that met the Earn-out Threshold during the twelve month period ending on the preceding anniversary of the closing.

The allocation of the purchase price is based upon estimates of the assets acquired in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance.  The acquisition of Tejas is based on management’s consideration of past and expected future performance.  The allocation of the aggregate purchase price of this acquisition is as follows:

Computer equipment
  $ 25,400  
DVD inventory
    88,916  
Merchant contract
    1,366,684  
Assets acquired
  $ 1,481,000  

The assets acquired in the Tejas acquisition serve as collateral for borrowings as discussed in Financial Footnote #5 “Senior Lenders’ Notes Payable.”

SENIOR LENDERS’ NOTES PAYABLE

On March 31, 2011 the Company entered into a 12-month forward looking interest rate swap agreement on a $3,976,531 equipment lease schedule with Fifth Third Bank which will fix its LIBOR interest rate at 2.45% as of April 1, 2012.  The Company expects that by fixing the LIBOR rate on its equipment lease schedule at 2.45% effective April 1, 2012, it will be fixing the interest rate paid on the $3,976,531 equipment lease schedule at 6.45% beginning April 1, 2012, and until then, will remain on an interest-only schedule.  As of September 30, 2011, the Company had drawn down a total of $5,646,231 against the Lease Agreement.   $1,699,700 of the total draw down will be on an interim interest-only schedule.

The Company had $887,081 in new financing offset by $316,598 in principal payments on its draw loan facilities during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  Of the $887,081 in draws, $793,307 was derived from a new inventory draw facility.  The company had $1,208,595 in new financing for equipment during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  The blended rate on all new financing during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, was 8.2%.

On May 26, 2011 the Company entered into a 12-month forward looking interest rate swap agreement on $20 million with Fifth Third Bank which will swap the interest rate on the Company’s vault cash.  The effective date of the rate swap is June 1, 2012 and until then, the Company will continue to pay its variable interest rate on the $20 million of vault cash.

The components of senior lenders’ notes payable for the periods presented are as follows:

   
September 30, 2011
   
December 31, 2010
 
             
Fifth Third Bank, term loan

Long-term portion, net of senior lenders' notes payable
  $ 7,446,248     $ 6,622,539  

As of September 30, 2011, the Company was not in compliance with its Debt Service Coverage covenant   with Fifth Third Bank.  The company obtained a waiver from Fifth Third with no attached fee.  The blended interest rate on all components of senior lenders’ notes payable as of September 30, 2011 was 5.75%.  As of September 30, 2011, the Company had $6,900,878 of available funds remaining on its senior lender’s notes payable.

6.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We lease ATMs and back office computer equipment under capital lease agreements that expire between 2011 and 2013.  The average interest rate paid on these lease payments is 9.56% per annum.  During the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, we did not enter into any new capital lease obligations.  As of September 30, 2011, $318,076 of capital lease obligations were included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

7.
LITIGATION AND CLAIMS

From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries may be parties to, and their property is subject to, ordinary, routine litigation incidental to their business. We know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against the Company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

8.
INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 0.0%.  While there is no difference in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2011 over the respective previous periods, the effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2011 differs from our expected tax rates for the periods then-ended primarily due to the tax effects from the change in valuation allowance established for net deferred tax assets.

In assessing the realizability of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not, that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The valuation allowance at September 30, 2011 is related to deferred tax assets arising from net operating loss carryforwards.  Management believes that based upon its projection of future taxable income for the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize the full benefit of the net operating loss carryforwards before they expire.

 
15

 

At December 31, 2010, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards remaining of approximately $23.6 million that may be offset against future taxable income through 2030.

At December 31, 2010, we had approximately $1,147,200 of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of this total, $1,147,200 (net of federal benefit on state tax issues) represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company’s effective income tax rate in any future periods.  There is no balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2010 related to tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts could significantly change during the next 12 months.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, there was no change in gross unrecognized tax benefits. Our total gross unrecognized tax benefit at September 30, 2011 was $1,147,200.
 
Our continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to uncertain income tax matters in income tax expense. However, the type of uncertain income tax matters involved would not forseeably subject the Company to interest and/or penalties.  As such, we had $0 (net of federal tax benefit) accrued for interest and $0 accrued for penalties at December 31, 2010. The total amount accrued for interest and penalties at September 30, 2011 was $0.

We are subject to the income tax jurisdiction of the U.S., as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. We believe we are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before 2007, to international examinations for years before 2006 and, with few exceptions, to state examinations before 2006.

On April 12, 2011, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company made several determinations with respect to compensatory arrangements for certain named executive officers of the Company.  Lock Ireland and Michael I. Connolly, both directors of the Company, are serving as interim co-Chief Executive Officers of the Company.  In order to reward Mr. Ireland and Mr. Connolly for their service as officers of the Company, and to increase alignment to our multi-year strategic plans, the Board determined to grant certain performance-based stock options to these individuals.  The performance based stock options were awarded under the terms of The Global Axcess Corp 2004 Stock Plan.  Both Mr. Ireland and Mr. Connolly were each awarded 125,000 stock options as part of this grant, with an exercise price of $0.43.

The performance-based options are separated into two categories: (i) “operating performance-based options”, and (ii) “other performance based options”.  The operating performance-based options represent 50% of the total award and are based on the Company’s achievement of certain specified financial targets.  The other performance based options represent 50% of the total award and are based on the Company’s achievement of certain other operating goals designated by the Board.

Operating Performance-Based Options (50% of total) – Based on the Company’s financial achievement against target plan.  The achievement will be measured by the end of the most recent full quarter’s year-to-date (“YTD”) financial results in the quarter during the termination of their Co-CEO role:
 
o
Twenty percent (20%) for at or above YTD achievement of the Company’s revenue targets in the approved 2011 Business Plan.
 
o
Thirty percent (30%) for at or above YTD achievement of the Company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) targets in the approved 2011 Business Plan.
 
·
Other Performance-Based Options (50% of total) – Based on other objectives specified by the Board (with partial achievement of each awarded as determined by the Board).  Objectives must be achieved on or before December 31, 2011 or they expire.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company uses the three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

On March 31, 2011 the Company entered into a 12-month forward looking interest rate swap agreement on a $3,976,531 equipment lease schedule with Fifth Third Bank which will fix its LIBOR interest rate at 2.45% as of April 1, 2012.  The Company expects that by fixing the LIBOR rate on its equipment lease schedule at 2.45% effective April 1, 2012, it will be fixing the interest rate paid on the $3,976,531 equipment lease schedule at 6.45% beginning April 1, 2012 and until then, will remain on an interest-only schedule.  Our derivative financial instruments are interest rate swap agreements, which are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the derivatives and therefore considered a level 2 input.

On May 26, 2011 the Company entered into a 12-month forward looking interest rate swap agreement on $20 million with Fifth Third Bank which will swap the interest rate on the Company’s vault cash.  The effective date of the rate swap is June 1, 2012 and until then, the Company will continue to pay its variable interest rate on the $20 million of vault cash.  Our derivative financial instruments are interest rate swap agreements, which are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the derivatives and therefore considered a level 2 input.

The following tables summarize the Company's assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by U.S. GAAP:

Interest rate swaps. The fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps was a liability of $585,743 as of September 30, 2011. These financial instruments are carried at fair value, calculated as the present value of amounts estimated to be received or paid to a marketplace participant in a selling transaction.

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy

For each derivative instrument that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI").  Gains and losses on the derivative instrument representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components that are excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings.  However, because the Company currently only utilizes fixed-for-floating interest rate swaps in which the underlying pricing terms agree, in all material respects, including the pricing terms of the Company's vault cash rental obligations, the amount of ineffectiveness associated with such interest rate swap contracts has historically been immaterial.  Accordingly, no ineffectiveness amounts associated with the Company's cash flow hedges have been recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations.

The interest rate swap contract entered into with respect to the Company's equipment lease schedule effectively modifies the Company's exposure to interest rate risk by converting the Company's monthly floating LIBOR rate to a fixed rate.  This contract is in place through March 31, 2015 for $3,976,531.

The interest rate swap contract entered into with respect to the Company's vault cash rental obligations effectively modifies the Company's exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of the Company's monthly floating rate vault cash rental expense to a fixed rate.  Such contracts are in place through June 1, 2014 for $20 million of the Company's vault cash rental obligations.  By converting such amounts to a fixed rate, the impact of future interest rate changes (both favorable and unfavorable) on the Company's monthly vault cash rental expense amounts has been reduced.  The interest rate swap contract typically involves the receipt of floating rate amounts from the Company's counterparties that match, in all material respects, the floating rate amounts required to be paid by the Company to its vault cash provider for the portions of the Company's outstanding vault cash obligations that have been hedged.  In return, the Company typically pays the interest rate swap counterparties a fixed rate amount per month based on the same notional amounts outstanding.

At no point is there an exchange of the underlying principal or notional amounts associated with the interest rate swaps. Additionally, none of the Company's existing interest rate swap contracts contain credit-risk-related contingent features.

BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

FASB requires that companies report separately in the financial statements certain financial and descriptive information about segment revenues, income and assets. The method for determining what information is reported is based on the way that management organizes the operating segments for making operational decisions and assessments of financial performance. In computing operating loss and net loss for the DVD services business and the ATM services business, no allocations of general corporate expenses have been made and these are included in the Corporate Support services business.

The following table summarizes our revenue, gross profit, SG&A, stock compensation expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairment of assets, restructuring charges, operating income (loss), net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA by segment for the periods indicated below.

EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) is defined as earnings before net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.  Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA from operations before impairment of assets, restructuring charges, stock compensation expense, other non-operating expense, gain on sale of assets, and loss on early extinguishment of debt.

IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

During the fiscal year 2011, the company removed DVD kiosks from store locations owned by a major customer.  The largest wave of de-installs relating to these kiosks occurred during the third quarter, consisting of approximately 115 kiosks removed from store locations.  Along with these idle kiosks in the warehouse, were the DVD titles associated with these machines.

In addition to these kiosk de-installations, the Company received notice from the same customer in the third quarter that it would have to remove all remaining kiosks in the fourth quarter of 2011, due to a cancellation of the Company’s contract with the customer.  This cancellation was a result of the customer’s bankruptcy proceedings.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company wrote down $1,085,194 of impaired DVD inventory.  This impaired DVD inventory consisted of both DVD titles that were not being utilized due to the removal of the DVD kiosks from store locations, as well as a mark-to-market reduction in value of the DVDs located in the kiosks we anticipate will be removed during the fourth quarter of 2011, pursuant to the cancellation of the customer contract.

13.
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

On February 28, 2011, the Company and George McQuain, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, agreed to a mutual separation of Mr. McQuain’s employment.  As of February 28, 2011, Mr. McQuain is no longer employed as Chief Executive Officer, Director or in any other capacity, by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.  The Company intends to pay Mr. McQuain the severance payments detailed in his Employment Agreement.

From February 2011 through September 2011 several other headcounts were reduced as part of a corporate restructuring.  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $531,936 for severance-related expenses.  As of September 30, 2011, the Company had accrued $285,097 for severance obligations included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company removed approximately 115 of its DVD rental kiosks from store locations of a major customer, and placed them into storage at a Company warehouse.  While some of these kiosks were redeployed to other locations in the field, the majority remained in the warehouse at the end of the third quarter.  The Company incurred $126,269 of costs associated with the de-installation and storage of the kiosks.  Additionally, the Company received notice from the same customer in the third quarter that it would have to remove all remaining kiosks in the fourth quarter of 2011.  This came as a result of cancellation of the Company’s contract with the customer pursuant to the customer’s bankruptcy proceedings.  The Company accrued $100,000 total for the de-installation of these kiosks as well as the cost of redeploying other kiosks in the third quarter of 2011.  The company wrote off $175,102 of un-amortized costs intangible costs relating to its contract with this customer.

The following table summarizes the restructuring charges recorded during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011:

LOSS ON EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT

On June 18, 2010 the Company entered into the Loan Agreement with Fifth Third Bank.  The proceeds were used to repay outstanding principal balances under loan agreements with two previous lenders.

In accordance with GAAP, the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt should be recognized currently in income of the period of extinguishment as losses or gains and identified as a separate item.

The following summarizes the amounts charged to loss on early extinguishment of debt for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010:
