NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation of Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of InnerWorkings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) included herein have been prepared to conform to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the accompanying unaudited financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year of 2012. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto as of December 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 7, 2012.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency for the Company’s foreign operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated into U.S. currency at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. The resulting translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Income and expense items are translated at average monthly rates of exchange. Realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions were not material.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangibles

 

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. The Company evaluates the recoverability of goodwill using a two-step impairment test. For goodwill impairment test purposes, the Company has two reporting units, United States and International. In the first step, the fair value for the reporting unit is compared to its book value including goodwill. In the case that the fair value is less than the book value, a second step is performed which compares the implied fair value of goodwill to the book value of goodwill. The fair value for the goodwill is determined based on the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the net fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of the goodwill is less than the book value, the difference is recognized as an impairment. Absent any interim indicators of impairment, the Company has elected to test for goodwill impairment during the fourth quarter of each year, and as a result of the 2011 analysis performed, no impairment charges were required.

 

     The following is a summary of the goodwill balance for each operating segment as of June 30, 2012:

 

   United States   International   Total 
Balance as of December 31, 2011  $114,608,290   $90,674,297   $205,282,587 
Goodwill acquired related to 2012 acquisitions   1,770,677    5,643,796    7,414,473 
Adjustment of purchase accounting for prior year acquisitions   (6,601)   (14,778,874)   (14,784,935)
Foreign exchange impact       (1,155,911)   (1,155,911)
                
Balance as of June 30, 2012  $116,372,906   $80,383,308   $196,756,214

 Goodwill and Other Intangibles (Continued)

 

 In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, the Company amortizes its intangible assets with finite lives over their respective estimated useful lives and reviews for impairment whenever impairment indicators exist. The Company’s intangible assets consist of customer lists, noncompete agreements, trade names and patents. The Company’s customer lists, which have an estimated weighted-average useful life of fourteen years, are being amortized using the economic life method. The Company’s noncompete agreements, trade names and patents are being amortized on the straight-line basis over their estimated weighted-average useful lives of approximately four years, twelve years and ten years, respectively.

 

The following is a summary of the intangible assets:

 

   December 31,
2011 
   June 30,
2012 
   Weighted-
Average Life
 
Customer lists  $35,485,590   $46,633,112    14.3 years 
Noncompete agreements   1,077,349    1,077,349    3.9 years 
Trade names   3,467,655    3,467,655    12.4 years 
Patents   38,456    38,456    10.0 years 
                
    40,069,050    51,216,572      
Less accumulated amortization   (13,503,735)   (15,204,478)     
                
Intangible assets, net  $26,565,315   $36,012,094      

 

Amortization expense related to these intangible assets was $837,722 and $1,709,794 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $1,328,370 and $2,217,618 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

 

The estimated amortization expense for the next five years is as follows:

 

Remainder of 2012  $2,168,855 
2013   3,859,177 
2014   3,493,427 
2015   3,293,741 
2016   3,145,708 
Thereafter   20,051,186 
      
   $36,012,094 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value within the financial statements in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (ASC 820). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with this interpretation, the Company has only applied ASC 820 with respect to its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value within the financial statements. The Company’s investments in cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value. See Notes 6 and 7 for additional information on fair value measurements.

Stock-Based Compensation

   

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. Compensation expense is measured by determining the fair value using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and is then recognized over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period, on a straight-line basis for the entire award.

 

Stock-based compensation cost recognized during the period is based on the portion of the share-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost recognized has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. 

 

During the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, the Company issued 618,374 and 131,660 options, respectively, to various employees of the Company. In addition, during the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, the Company granted 271,594 and 115,361 restricted common shares, respectively, to employees. During the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, 321,186 and 1,930,048 options were exercised and restricted common shares vested, respectively. The Company recorded $1,770,140 and $2,451,374 in compensation expense for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

 

2. Acquisitions

 

During the second quarter of 2012, the Company made four acquisitions of both domestic and international businesses with experienced sales executives, or groups of sales executives, with established books of business.  None of these acquisitions were individually material.

 

These acquisitions contributed revenues and net income which were immaterial to the Company’s consolidated results for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Pro forma results of these acquisitions are not disclosed as they would not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

 

The following table summarizes the total consideration paid to acquire these companies and the amount of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition dates. At June 30, 2012, the purchase price allocations are preliminary and subject to change as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information about their fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. Specifically, the Company is finalizing the determination of the fair values of the intangible assets acquired and the contingent consideration liability for certain acquisitions. Changes to these fair values will also impact the amount of goodwill recorded in connection with these acquisitions. All valuations will be completed within one year of the related acquisition date.

2. Acquisitions (Continued)

 

Prior Year Acquisitions

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, goodwill related to acquisitions made in prior years decreased by $14,784,935 due to changes to purchase price allocations. This amount includes adjustments made in the second quarter of 2012 to the fair values of intangible assets acquired and the contingent consideration liability related to the Company’s acquisition of Productions Graphics in the fourth quarter of 2011. The goodwill recorded in connection with this acquisition decreased by $15,637,700 million, resulting from $11,150,360 million of intangible assets recorded and a $4,487,340 million decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability. The Company is still in the process of finalizing the valuation of Productions Graphics relating to the contingent consideration liability and its intangible assets which will be completed in the third quarter of 2012. 

 

Contingent Consideration

 

In connection with certain of the Company’s acquisitions, contingent consideration is payable in cash upon the achievement of certain performance measures over future periods. For acquisitions completed prior to January 1, 2009, contingent consideration payments will be recorded as additional purchase price. The Company paid $3,000,000 related to these agreements in the six months ended June 30, 2012. There are no remaining contingent payments potentially due under these agreements as of June 30, 2012. For the acquisitions occurring subsequent to January 1, 2009, the Company has estimated and recorded potential contingent consideration as an increase in purchase price as of the acquisition date.  The Company has recorded $81,504,359 in contingent consideration at June 30, 2012 related to these arrangements of which $56,717,760, or about 70%, is related to the acquisition of Productions Graphics.  Any future adjustments related to the acquisitions occurring after January 1, 2009 to the valuation of contingent consideration will be recorded in the Company’s results of operations.

 

As of June 30, 2012, the potential maximum contingent payments are payable as follows:

 

Remainder of 2012  $13,244,923 
2013   17,749,793 
2014   25,771,725 
2015   47,246,320 
2016   2,865,200 
      
   $106,877,961

3. Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding plus share equivalents that would arise from the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted common shares. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, 1,422,748 and 1,527,621 options and restricted common shares were excluded from the calculation as these options and restricted common shares were anti-dilutive. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, 742,331 options and restricted common shares were excluded from the calculation as these options and restricted common shares were anti-dilutive.  The computations of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 are as follows:

6. Valuation of Equity Investments

 

As discussed in Note 1, the Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure (ASC 820), to its financial assets and liabilities.  At June 30, 2012, the Company’s financial assets relate to its available-for-sale securities and are included in short-term investments.

 

The Company has classified its investment in Echo as “available for sale” in accordance with ASC 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. The investment is stated at fair value based on market prices, with any unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Any realized gains and losses and dividends will be included in other income. At June 30, 2012, the Company’s investment in Echo, which has a cost basis of $5,195, was carried at fair value of $793,707. The unrealized gain of $786,823 is included in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax of $308,435.

 

7. Fair Value Measurement

 

ASC 820 includes a fair value hierarchy that is intended to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The fair value hierarchy is based on observable or unobservable inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon its own market assumptions.

 

The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:

 

  Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  Level 2: Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs, which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
  Level 3: Inputs that are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company's potential contingent consideration payments relating to acquisitions occurring subsequent to January 1, 2009 are its only Level 3 liabilities as of June 30, 2012. The fair values of these liabilities are estimated using a present value analysis as of June 30, 2012. This analysis considers, among other items, the financial forecasts of future operating results of the seller, the probability of reaching the forecast and the associated discount rate.

(1) Adjustments to original contingent consideration obligations recorded were the result of updated fair value measurements consisting of a $4.5 million reduction to the contingent consideration related to the Productions Graphics acquisition, offset by $0.5 million increase for other acquisitions which was recorded as an operating expense.

 

8. Commitments and Contingencies

 

In 2011, in connection with the Circuit City Stores, Inc. (“Circuit City”) bankruptcy proceedings, the Trustee of the Circuit City Liquidating Trust filed a lawsuit against the Company in United States Bankruptcy Court in the Eastern District of Virginia for the avoidance of payments as allegedly preferential transfers of $3.2 million were paid to the Company during the 90 days preceding the filing of the bankruptcy petition of Circuit City on November 10, 2008. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company accrued a loss reserve of $950,000 related to this claim. Management believes that the Company has an adequate reserve for this liability and the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its financial statements.

 

In May 2011, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) contacted the Company’s United Kingdom subsidiary, InnerWorkings Europe Limited (formerly “Etrinsic”), to request information relating to its position that certain printed matter and direct mail products are zero-rated under the U.K.’s VAT law. Although Etrinsic has voluntarily exchanged information with the HMRC as to its position that the products at issue are zero-rated for VAT pursuant to UK law and HMRC’s guidance, HMRC has stated that it disagrees with Etrinsic’s position and in March 2012, HMRC issued Etrinsic with a VAT assessment of £2,316,008 for VAT periods covering the 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 calendar years. Etrinsic sought independent review of the assessment with HMRC, and HMRC have upheld the assessment. Etrinsic is appealing the HMRC’s assessment at the UK Tax Tribunal. In order to appeal the claim, the Company paid £2,316,008 to the HMRC on July 6, 2012. The potential range of loss for this tax liability is £0 to £2,316,008 as well as any potential VAT for 2012. The Company believes that an unfavorable final outcome is reasonably possible but not probable, and therefore, no reserve has been recorded for this potential loss.

 

In December 2010, e-Lynxx Corporation filed a complaint against the Company and numerous other defendants for patent infringement in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. As to the Company, the complaint alleges, among other things, that certain aspects of the Company’s technology and systems infringe on two patents owned by e-Lynxx purporting to cover a system and method for competitive pricing and procurement of customized goods and services, and seeks monetary damages, interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. The Company disputes the allegations contained in e-Lynxx’s complaint and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. The Company believes that an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible but not probable, and therefore, no reserve has been recorded for a potential loss.

9. Revolving Credit Facility

 

On April 20, 2012, the Company entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2010, among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Credit Agreement”). The First Amendment to the Credit Agreement: (i) increases the revolving commitment amount by $50 million, to $150 million in the aggregate, and provides the Company the right to increase the aggregate commitment amount by an additional $25 million, to $175 million; (ii) extends the maturity date of the revolving credit facility from August 2, 2014 to August 2, 2015; (iii) decreases the ranges of applicable rates charged for interest on outstanding loans and letters of credit by 0.35%, from 2.50%-1.50% to 2.15%-1.15% for letter of credit fees and loans based on the Eurodollar rate and from 1.50%-0.50% to 1.15%-0.15% for loans based on the base rate; and (iv) permits the Company to incur certain securitization transactions of up to $50 million in the aggregate, so long as certain tests are met, including a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio test (as defined in the First Amendment) and a minimum Consolidated EBITDA test (as defined in the First Amendment). In the event the Company elects to incur securitization transactions in the future pursuant to (iv) above, (a) a new mandatory prepayment test will be implemented that will trigger prepayments based on the sum of the total outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and any such securitization transaction measured against certain of the Company’s account receivables and (b) the quarterly maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio test will be adjusted from 3.00:1.00 to 2.75:1.00.

 

10. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended its standard on the presentation of comprehensive income in financial statements to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items that are recorded in other comprehensive income. The new accounting standard requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The provisions of this new standard are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. While the new standard changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. For interim periods, the standard requires companies to present a total for comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or two consecutive statements. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2012.

 

In September 2011, the FASB amended its standards related to goodwill impairment testing with the objective being to simplify the annual goodwill impairment process by allowing entities to use qualitative factors first before performing the traditional two-step goodwill impairment test. The two-step impairment test is now only required if an entity determines through this qualitative analysis that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Adoption of the new standard was permitted for the Company’s fourth quarter 2011 impairment test, but the Company elected to perform the traditional two-step test until a further assessment could be made. The Company has not yet determined if this standard will be adopted in 2012. Because the measurement of a potential impairment has not changed, the standard will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. 

 

11. Business Segments

 

The Company is organized and managed as two business segments, United States and International, and is viewed as two operating segments by the chief operating decision maker for purposes of resource allocation and assessing performance. “Other” consists of shared service activities and unallocated corporate expenses.

 

Management evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA. The accounting policies of each of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1. Adjusted EBITDA represents income from operations with the addition of depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense, less any change in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities. Management does not evaluate the performance of its operating segments using asset measures.

10. Business Segments (Continued)

 

The table below presents financial information for the Company’s reportable operating segments and Other for the three and six month periods noted (in thousands):

 

   United States   International   Other   Total 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2011                    
Total net revenues  $133,813   $21,799   $   $155,612 
Adjusted EBITDA (1)   12,197    1,566    (4,071)   9,692 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2012                    
Total net revenues  $161,130   $40,267   $   $201,397 
Adjusted EBITDA (1)   16,872    1,561    (6,561)   11,872 

 

   United States   International   Other   Total 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2011                    
Total net revenues  $260,181   $40,612   $   $300,793 
Adjusted EBITDA (1)   21,456    2,955    (7,412)   16,999 
Six Months Ended June 30, 2012                    
Total net revenues  $318,746   $71,198   $   $389,944 
Adjusted EBITDA (1)   31,623    1,853    (12,046)   21,430 

 

(1) Adjusted EBITDA, which represents income from operations with the addition of depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and any change in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under SEC regulations. Income from operations is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company presents this measure as supplemental information to help investors better understand trends in its business results over time. The Company’s management team uses adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the performance of the business. Adjusted EBITDA is not equivalent to any measure of performance required to be reported under GAAP, nor should this data be considered an indicator of our overall financial performance and liquidity. Moreover, the adjusted EBITDA definition the Company uses may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

We are a leading global marketing supply chain company. With proprietary technology, an extensive supplier network and deep domain expertise, the Company procures, manages and delivers printed materials and promotional products as part of a comprehensive outsourced enterprise solution. Our technology is designed to capitalize on excess manufacturing capacity and other inefficiencies in the traditional print supply chain to obtain favorable pricing and to deliver high-quality products and services for our clients.

 

Our proprietary software applications and database, PPM4™, create a fully-integrated solution that stores, analyzes and tracks the production capabilities of our supplier network, as well as quote and price data for each bid we receive and print job we execute. As a result, we believe PPM4™ contains one of the largest independent repositories of equipment profiles and price data for print suppliers in the United States. We leverage our technology to match each print job with the supplier that is optimally suited to meet the client’s needs at a highly competitive price. Our procurement managers use PPM4™ to manage the print procurement process from end-to-end.

  

Through our supplier network of approximately 9,000 suppliers, we offer a full range of print, fulfillment and logistics services that allows us to procure printed products on virtually any substrate. The breadth of our product offerings and services and the depth of our supplier network enable us to fulfill all of the print procurement needs of our clients. By leveraging our technology platform, our clients are able to reduce overhead costs, redeploy internal resources and obtain favorable pricing and service terms. In addition, our ability to track individual transactions and provide customized reports detailing print procurement activity on an enterprise-wide basis provides our clients with greater visibility and control of their print expenditures.

 

Since 2002, we have expanded from a regional focus to a national and then international focus with the acquisitions of CPRO, a leading provider of print solutions in Latin America, and Productions Graphics, a leading print management firm with a particular strength in continental Europe, in 2011. We operate in 44 different countries. Our operations are organized into two segments based on geographic regions: United States and International. The United States segment includes operations in the United States, and the International segment includes operations in the United Kingdom, continental Europe and Latin America. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, we generated revenues of $318.7 million in the United States segment and $71.2 million in the International segment. We believe the opportunity exists to expand our business into new geographic markets. Our objective is to continue to increase our sales in the major print markets in the United States and internationally. We intend to hire or acquire more account executives within close proximity to these large markets.

 

Revenue

 

We generate revenue through the sale of printed products to our clients. Our revenue was $300.8 million and $389.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. Total revenue increased 29.6% from the prior year of which 20% was from organic growth. Our revenue is generated from two different types of clients: enterprise and middle market/transactional. Enterprise jobs usually involve higher dollar amounts and volume than our middle market/transactional jobs. We categorize a client as an enterprise client if we have a contract with the client for the provision of printing services on a recurring basis; if the client has signed an open-ended purchase order or a series of related purchase orders; or if the client has enrolled in our e-stores program, which enables the client to make online purchases of printing services on a recurring basis. We categorize all other clients as middle market/transactional clients, with a significant part of growth in this area coming from a growth initiative to sell print over the phone, or Inside Sales. We enter into contracts with our enterprise clients to provide some or a specific portion of their printed products on a recurring basis.

 

Several of our enterprise clients have outsourced substantially all of their recurring print needs to us. We provide printed products to our middle market/transactional clients on an order-by-order basis.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, enterprise clients accounted for 76% of our revenue, while middle market/transactional clients accounted for 24% of our revenue.

 

Our revenue consists of the prices paid by our clients for printed products. These prices, in turn, reflect the amounts charged to us by our suppliers plus our gross profit. Our gross profit margin, in the case of some of our enterprise clients, is fixed by contract or, in the case of middle market/transactional clients, is negotiated on a job-by-job basis. Once either type of client accepts our pricing terms, the selling price is established and we procure the product for our own account in order to re-sell it to the client. We take full title and risk of loss for the product upon shipment. The finished product is typically shipped directly from our supplier to a destination specified by our client. Upon shipment, our supplier invoices us for its production costs and we invoice our client.

 

Our revenue from enterprise clients tends to generate lower gross profit margins than our revenue from middle market/transactional clients because the gross profit margins established in our contracts with large enterprise clients are generally lower than the gross profit margins we typically realize in our middle market/transactional business. Although our enterprise revenue generates lower gross profit margins, our enterprise business tends to be as profitable as our middle market/transactional business on an operating profit basis because the commission expense associated with enterprise jobs is generally lower.

 

17
 

 

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

 

Our cost of goods sold consists primarily of the price at which we purchase products from our suppliers. Our selling price, including our gross profit, in the case of some of our enterprise jobs, is based on a fixed gross margin established by contract or, in the case of middle market/transactional jobs, is determined at the discretion of the account executive or procurement manager within predetermined parameters. Our gross margins on our enterprise jobs are typically lower than our gross margins on our middle market/transactional jobs. As a result, our cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue for our enterprise jobs is typically higher than it is for our middle market/transactional jobs. Our gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 was $69.7 million and $89.2 million, or 23.2% and 22.9% of revenue, respectively.

 

Operating Expenses and Income from Operations

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist of commissions paid to our account executives, compensation costs for our management team and procurement managers as well as compensation costs for our finance and support employees, public company expenses, corporate systems, legal and accounting, facilities and travel and entertainment expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue were 18.2% and 18.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

 

We accrue for commissions when we recognize the related revenue. Some of our account executives receive a monthly draw to provide them with a more consistent income stream. The cash paid to our account executives in advance of commissions earned is reflected as a prepaid expense on our balance sheet. As our account executives earn commissions, a portion of their commission payment is withheld and offset against their prepaid commission balance, if any. Our prepaid commission balance, net of accrued earned commissions not yet paid, increased to $5.5 million as of June 30, 2012 from $3.6 million as of December 31, 2011.

 

We agree to provide our clients with printed products that conform to the industry standard of a “commercially reasonable quality,” and our suppliers in turn agree to provide us with products of the same quality. In addition, the quotes we provide our clients include customary industry terms and conditions that limit the amount of our liability for product defects. Product defects have not had a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

 

Our income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012 was $9.1 million and $13.1 million, respectively.

 

Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012

 

Revenue

 

Our revenue by segment for each of the years presented was as follows:

 

   Three months ended June 30, 
   2011   % of Total   2012   % of Total 
   (dollars in thousands) 
United States   $133,813    86.0%  $161,130    80.0%
International    21,799    14.0    40,267    20.0 
                     
Revenue   $155,612    100.0%  $201,397    100.0%

 

United States

 

United States revenue increased by $27.3 million, or 20.4%, from $133.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $161.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. This increase in revenue is driven primarily by organic new enterprise and middle market/transactional account growth.

 

International

 

International revenue increased by $18.5 million, or 84.7%, from $21.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $40.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. This increase is due to our expansion into continental Europe through the acquisition of Productions Graphics during the fourth quarter of 2011 and organic growth in Latin America.

Cost of goods sold

 

Our cost of goods sold increased by $34.3 million, or 28.7%, from $119.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $153.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is a result of the revenue growth during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue decreased from 76.6% during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 76.2% during the three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Gross Profit

 

Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue, which we refer to as gross margin, increased from 23.4% during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 23.8% during the three months ended June 30, 2012.  This increase is primarily due to operational improvements such as increased gain share gross profit and increased early pay benefit from suppliers.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $9.9 million, or 35.8%, from $27.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $37.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 17.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 18.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to incremental sales commission and cost of procurement staff to secure new enterprise accounts. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily the result of investment in Inside Sales, new geographies such as Brazil and ramping new large enterprise contracts signed in previous quarters for which little or no revenue is yet recorded.

 

Depreciation and amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.5 million, or 18.8%, from $2.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $2.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in depreciation expense is primarily attributable to depreciation on recent purchases of computer hardware and software, equipment and furniture and fixtures as well as amortization of capitalized costs of computer software for internal use. The increase in amortization expense is a result of the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in connection with our acquisitions.

 

Income from operations

 

Income from operations increased by $2.1 million, or 39.5%, from $5.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $7.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. As a percentage of revenue, income from operations increased from 3.3% during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 3.6% during the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in income from operations as a percentage of revenue is a result of improvement in gross profit margin, partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue.

 

Other income and expense

 

Other income decreased by $1.0 million from income of $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to expense of $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in the gain on sale of shares of Echo.

 

Income tax expense

 

Income tax expense increased by $0.3 million, or 15.7%, from $2.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $2.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our effective tax rate was 34.9% and 33.9% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is due to our international expansion in to countries with lower statutory tax rates, partially offset by the United States research and development tax credit which expired at the end of 2011 and has not been renewed for 2012.

 

Net income

 

Net income increased by $0.8 million, or 20.9%, from $3.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $4.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Net income as a percentage of revenue was 2.4% and 2.2% during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012

 

Revenue

 

Our revenue by segment for each of the years presented was as follows:

 

   Six months ended June 30, 
   2011   % of Total   2012   % of Total 
   (dollars in thousands) 
United States  $260,181    86.5%  $318,746    81.7%
International   40,612    13.5    71,198    18.3 
                     
Revenue  $300,793    100.0%  $389,944    100.0%

 

United States

 

United States revenue increased by $58.6 million, or 22.5%, from $260.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $318.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. This increase in revenue is driven primarily by organic new enterprise and middle market/transactional account growth.

 

International

 

International revenue increased by $30.6 million, or 75.3%, from $40.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $71.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. This increase is due to our expansion into Latin America and continental Europe through the acquisitions of CPRO and Productions Graphics, respectively, during 2011.

 

Cost of goods sold

 

Our cost of goods sold increased by $69.6 million, or 30.1%, from $231.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $300.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase is a result of the revenue growth during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Our cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue increased from 76.8% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 77.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Gross Profit

 

Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue, which we refer to as gross margin, decreased from 23.2% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 22.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2012.  The decrease is primarily the result of a higher concentration of our business coming from enterprise clients, which generate lower gross margins, and the addition of the South American operations during the first quarter of 2011, which have lower gross margins than the United States operations. Additionally, due to the planned timing of various projects and services, Productions Graphics, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2011, regularly experiences relatively low margins in the first half of each fiscal year with increasing margins in the second half.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $16.0 million, or 29.3%, from $54.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $70.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 18.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 18.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to incremental sales commission and cost of procurement staff to secure new enterprise accounts. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily the result of increased leverage from higher revenue, offset by investment in Inside Sales, new geographies such as Brazil and ramping new large enterprise contracts signed in previous quarters for which little or no revenue is yet recorded.

 

Depreciation and amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.5 million, or 9.9%, from $4.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $5.4 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in depreciation expense is primarily attributable to depreciation on recent purchases of computer hardware and software, equipment and furniture and fixtures as well as amortization of capitalized costs of computer software for internal use. The increase in amortization expense is a result of the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in connection with our acquisitions.

Income from operations

 

Income from operations increased by $4.0 million, or 43.9%, from $9.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $13.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As a percentage of revenue, income from operations increased from 3.0% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 3.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in income from operations as a percentage of revenue is a result of our decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue, partially offset by a decrease in our gross profit margin.

 

Other income and expense

 

Other income decreased by $1.7 million from income of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to expense of $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in the gain on sale of shares of Echo.

 

Income tax expense

 

Income tax expense increased by $0.7 million, or 20.5%, from $3.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $4.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Our effective tax rate was 35.0% and 34.0% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is due to our international expansion in to countries with lower statutory tax rates, partially offset by the United States research and development tax credit which expired at the end of 2011 and has not been renewed for 2012.

 

Net income

 

Net income increased by $1.7 million, or 25.8%, from $6.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $8.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Net income as a percentage of revenue was 2.2% and 2.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At June 30, 2012, we had $12.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $0.8 million in available-for-sale securities.

 

Operating Activities. Cash used in operating activities primarily consists of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities. Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $4.9 million and consisted of net income of $6.5 million, $7.9 million of non-cash items and $9.1 million used by working capital and other activities. The most significant impact on working capital and other activities consisted of an increase in accounts receivable and unbilled revenue of $15.3 million and an increase in prepaid expenses and other of $3.4 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $8.1 million.

 

Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $10.0 million and consisted of net income of $8.2 million, and $9.0 million of non-cash items, offset by $7.4 million of excess tax benefits on exercises of stock awards and $19.8 million used by working capital and other activities. The most significant impact on working capital and other activities consisted of an increase in accounts receivable and unbilled revenue of $16.6 million and an increase in prepaid expenses and other of $6.9 million offset by a decrease in accrued expenses of $6.7 million.

 

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $9.1 million was attributable to the proceeds on sale of Echo shares of $2.0 million, offset by capital expenditures of $4.2 million and $6.9 million in payments made in connection with acquisitions.

 

Cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2012 of $7.2 million was primarily attributable to capital expenditures of $5.0 million and payments to sellers for acquisitions closed prior to 2009 of $3.0 million, offset by proceeds from the sale of Echo shares and other investments of $0.5 million.

 

Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $7.0 million was primarily attributable to $6.5 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility, $0.3 million excess tax benefit related to the issuance of shares made in connection with stock option exercises and $0.2 million from the issuance of shares.

 

Cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2012 of $16.1 million was primarily attributable to the $13.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility and $7.4 million of excess tax benefits over compensation cost on exercised stock awards, offset by $5.5 million of payments of contingent consideration.

In May 2011, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) contacted our United Kingdom subsidiary, InnerWorkings Europe Limited (formerly “Etrinsic”), to request information relating to its position that certain printed matter and direct mail products are zero-rated under the U.K.’s VAT law. Although Etrinsic has voluntarily exchanged information with the HMRC as to its position that the products at issue are zero-rated for VAT pursuant to UK law and HMRC’s guidance, HMRC has stated that it disagrees with Etrinsic’s position and in March 2012, HMRC issued Etrinsic with a VAT assessment of £2,316,008 for VAT periods covering the 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 calendar years. Etrinsic sought independent review of the assessment with HMRC, and HMRC have upheld the assessment. Etrinsic is appealing the HMRC’s assessment at the UK Tax Tribunal. In order to appeal the claim, the Company paid £2,316,008 to the HMRC on July 6, 2012. The potential range of loss for this tax liability is £0 to £2,316,008 as well as any potential VAT for 2012. We believe that an unfavorable final outcome is reasonably possible but not probable, and therefore, no reserve has been recorded for this potential loss.

 

In December 2010, e-Lynxx Corporation filed a complaint against us and numerous other defendants for patent infringement in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. The complaint alleges, among other things, that certain aspects of our technology and systems infringe on two patents owned by e-Lynxx purporting to cover a system and method for competitive pricing and procurement of customized goods and services, and seeks monetary damages, interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. We dispute the allegations contained in e-Lynxx’s complaint and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this matter. We believe that an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible but not probable, and therefore, no reserve has been recorded for a potential loss.

 

On April 20, 2012, we entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to our Credit Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2010, among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Credit Agreement”). The First Amendment to the Credit Agreement: (i) increases the revolving commitment amount by $50 million, to $150 million in the aggregate, and provides the right to increase the aggregate commitment amount by an additional $25 million, to $175 million; (ii) extends the maturity date of the revolving credit facility from August 2, 2014 to August 2, 2015; (iii) decreases the ranges of applicable rates charged for interest on outstanding loans and letters of credit by 0.35%, from 2.50%-1.50% to 2.15%-1.15% for letter of credit fees and loans based on the Eurodollar rate and from 1.50%-0.50% to 1.15%-0.15% for loans based on the base rate; and (iv) permits us to incur certain securitization transactions of up to $50 million in the aggregate, so long as certain tests are met, including a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio test (as defined in the First Amendment) and a minimum Consolidated EBITDA test (as defined in the First Amendment). In the event we elect to incur securitization transactions in the future pursuant to (iv) above, (a) a new mandatory prepayment test will be implemented that will trigger prepayments based on the sum of the total outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and any such securitization transaction measured against certain of the Company’s account receivables and (b) the quarterly maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio test will be adjusted from 3.00:1.00 to 2.75:1.00.

 

Although we can provide no assurances, we believe that our available cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and amounts available under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and operating expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Obligations

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

With the exception of the contingent consideration in connection with our business acquisitions discussed in Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, there have been no material changes outside the normal course of business in the contractual obligations disclosed in Item 7 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, under the caption “Contractual Obligations.”

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

As of June 30, 2012, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended its standard on the presentation of comprehensive income in financial statements to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items that are recorded in other comprehensive income. The new accounting standard requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The provisions of this new standard are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. While the new standard changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. For interim periods, the standard requires companies to present a total for comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or two consecutive statements. We adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2012.

 

22
 

 

In September 2011, the FASB amended its standards related to goodwill impairment testing with the objective being to simplify the annual goodwill impairment process by allowing entities to use qualitative factors first before performing the traditional two-step goodwill impairment test. The two-step impairment test is now only required if an entity determines through this qualitative analysis that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Adoption of the new standard was permitted for our fourth quarter 2011 impairment test, but we elected to perform the traditional two-step test until a further assessment could be made. We have not yet determined if this standard will be adopted in 2012. Because the measurement of a potential impairment has not changed, the standard will not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. 

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains words such as “may,” “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “estimate” and “objective” or the negative thereof or similar terminology concerning the Company’s future financial performance, business strategy, plans, goals and objectives. These expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future performance or results of operations and are not guarantees. While these statements are based on assumptions and judgments that management has made in light of industry experience as well as perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate under the circumstances, they are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different. Some of the factors that would cause future results to differ from the recent results or those projected in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

Additional Information

 

We make our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, other reports and information filed with the SEC and amendments to those reports available, free of charge, through our Internet website (http://www.inwk.com) as soon as reasonably practical after we electronically file or furnish such materials to the SEC. All of our filings may be read or copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. Information on the operation of the Public Filing Room can be obtained by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet website (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically.

Item 3.            Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Commodity Risk

 

We are dependent upon the availability of paper, and paper prices represent a substantial portion of the cost of our products. The supply and price of paper depend on a variety of factors over which we have no control, including environmental and conservation regulations, natural disasters and weather. We believe a 10% increase in the price of paper would not have a significant effect on our consolidated statements of income or cash flows, as these costs are generally passed through to our clients.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We have exposure to changes in interest rates on our revolving credit facility. Interest is payable at the adjusted LIBOR rate or the alternate base rate. Assuming our $100.0 million revolving credit facility was fully drawn, a 1.0% increase in the interest rate would increase our annual interest expense by $1.0 million.

 

Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of United States interest rates, in particular because all of our investments are in cash equivalents and marketable securities. The average duration of our investments as of June 30, 2012 was less than one year. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we believe that there is no material risk exposure.

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

A portion of our sales and earnings are attributable to operations conducted outside of the United States. The United States dollar value of sales and earnings of these operations varies with currency exchange rate fluctuations. We believe a 10% fluctuation in the currency exchange rate would not have a significant effect on our consolidated statements of income or cash flows.

 

Item 4.            Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

 No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the second quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.            Legal Proceedings

 

In 2011, in connection with the Circuit City Stores, Inc. (“Circuit City”) bankruptcy proceedings, the Trustee of the Circuit City Liquidating Trust filed a lawsuit against us in United States Bankruptcy Court in the Eastern District of Virginia for the avoidance of payments as allegedly preferential transfers of $3.2 million were paid to us during the 90 days preceding the filing of the bankruptcy petition of Circuit City on November 10, 2008. In the second quarter of 2011, we accrued a loss reserve of $950,000 related to this claim. We believe that we have an adequate reserve for this liability and the ultimate resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its financial statements.

 

In May 2011, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) contacted our United Kingdom subsidiary, InnerWorkings Europe Limited (formerly “Etrinsic”), to request information relating to its position that certain printed matter and direct mail products are zero-rated under the U.K.’s VAT law. Although Etrinsic has voluntarily exchanged information with the HMRC as to its position that the products at issue are zero-rated for VAT pursuant to UK law and HMRC’s guidance, HMRC has stated that it disagrees with Etrinsic’s position and in March 2012, HMRC issued Etrinsic with a VAT assessment of £2,316,008 for VAT periods covering the 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 calendar years. Etrinsic sought independent review of the assessment with HMRC, and HMRC have upheld the assessment. Etrinsic is appealing the HMRC’s assessment at the UK Tax Tribunal. In order to appeal the claim, the Company paid £2,316,008 to the HMRC on July 6, 2012. The potential range of loss for this tax liability is £0 to £2,316,008 as well as any potential VAT for 2012. We believe that an unfavorable final outcome is reasonably possible but not probable, and therefore, no reserve has been recorded for this potential loss.

 

In December 2010, e-Lynxx Corporation filed a complaint against us and numerous other defendants for patent infringement in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. The complaint alleges, among other things, that certain aspects of our technology and systems infringe on two patents owned by e-Lynxx purporting to cover a system and method for competitive pricing and procurement of customized goods and services, and seeks monetary damages, interest, costs and attorneys’ fees. We dispute the allegations contained in e-Lynxx’s complaint and intend to vigorously defend ourselves in this matter. We believe that an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible but not probable, and therefore, no reserve has been recorded for a potential loss.

 

Item 1A.         Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes in the risk factors described in Item 1A (“Risk Factors”) of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

Item 2.           Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

            On April 11, 2012, we issued 13,436 shares of common stock as partial consideration in connection with our acquisition of certain assets of Launch Media, Inc. On April 14, 2012, we issued 72,976 shares of common stock as partial consideration in connection with our acquisition of Novavision A/S. On April 24, 2012, we issued 64,848 shares of common stock as partial consideration in connection with our acquisition of Iconomedia.
