NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

June 30, 2015

 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

The Company's 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed on March 18, 2015, should be read in conjunction with this report.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements for 2015 and 2014 include the accounts of International Monetary Systems, Ltd. (“IMS” or “the Company”) and its’ wholly owned subsidiaries Continental Trade Exchange, Ltd., National Trade Association, Inc., INLM CN Inc. and INLM Holdings, Inc. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Revenue Sources and Cost of Revenue

 

The Company and its subsidiaries earn revenues in both traditional cash dollars and in IMS trade dollars.

 

Cash Revenue

 

Cash income is earned through fees assessed when a member joins, transaction fees generated when clients earn or spend their trade dollars, annual and monthly maintenance fees, finance charges on delinquent accounts receivable, and event fees.

 

Trade Dollar Revenue

 

Trade revenue is similarly generated through initial membership fees, monthly maintenance fees, transaction fees, finance charges on delinquent accounts, and event fees. Occasionally the Company will accept a favorable trade ratio in lieu of a cash fee.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

All revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Transaction fees are recognized upon receipt of transactional information accumulated by our systems or reported by our clients.

 

Membership fees, monthly maintenance fees, finance charges, and other fees are billed monthly to members' accounts, and are recognized in the month the revenue is earned.

 

Use of Trade Dollars

 

The Company uses earned trade dollars to purchase various goods and services required in its operations. All barter transactions are reported at the estimated fair value of the products or services received.

 

Occasionally, the Company sells IMS trade dollars for US dollars. The cash received in these sales is included in gross revenue and the carrying value of the trade dollars up to the value of the cash received is netted against revenue, with any excess cost included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not anticipate that the recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements will materially impact the Company’s financial condition.

  

NOTE 2 – CASH

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has cash in excess of FDIC insurance of approximately $328,000. No losses have been incurred related to this credit risk exposure.

 

NOTE 3 – DEBT

 

In the first six months of 2015, the Company issued notes totaling $150,000 to an officer for cash. The terms of the notes call for quarterly interest payments at 8% for two years, after which the notes are payable in full.

 

In February 2015, notes payable to private investors, with outstanding balances totaling $275,000, were renewed for two years. The notes are now due in February 2017, and call for payments of quarterly interest at 9%.

 

In May 2015, a $60,000 convertible note payable to a relative of the chairman matured and was repaid.

 

The Company’s indebtedness as of June 30, 2015 includes the following:

 

Lines of credit payable to financial institutions, due in 2015		$	185,000
Convertible notes payable to related parties, mature between 2016 and 2017			170,000
Non-convertible notes payable to related parties, maturing in 2017			450,000
Notes payable to third parties, $392,623 due in 2015			1,994,246
Total indebtedness			2,799,246
Less current maturities, including credit lines and short term debt			(947,996	)
Long  term debt, net of current maturities		$	1,851,250

 

Additionally, the Company has lines of credit (including the one described above) with various financial institutions with unused borrowing capacity totaling approximately $362,000 as of June 30, 2015, which may be drawn as needed.

 

A financial institution has issued a $65,000 standby letter of credit to a landlord in lieu of a security deposit.

 

NOTE 4 – EQUITY

 

Common Stock Guarantee Repurchase

 

No repurchases were made in the first six months of 2015, under the remaining common stock guarantee agreement. 

 

Share Buyback Program

 

In accordance with a board approved plan, the following stock buybacks were made in open market and private transactions:

 

In the first quarter of 2015, the Company purchased 7,056 shares, at a cost of $42,184.

 

In the second quarter of 2015, the Company purchased 2,962 shares at a cost of $17,494.

 

All repurchased shares were placed in treasury.

 

Treasury Stock Retirements

 

There were no shares retired in the first half of 2015.

 

Stock Issued for Services

 

No stock has been issued for services in 2015.

 

 

Stock Options

 

The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan under which certain officers, key employees, or prospective employees may purchase shares of the Company's stock at an established exercise price, which shall not be less than the fair market value at the time the option is granted. The final exercise date is any time prior to the five-year anniversary of the first exercise date.

 

There are no options outstanding at June 30, 2015.

 

Stock Warrants

 

No warrants were issued in the current period. 

 

There are no warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2015.

 

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES

 

The difference between the combined Federal and state statutory rate and the effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 relates to the difference in timing of deduction for certain expenses, primarily bad debts, amortization of acquired membership lists, and depreciation of property and equipment, and the rates at which deferred taxes were originally established.

 

NOTE 6 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is occasionally involved in litigation, both as plaintiff and defendant. Management either litigates or settles claims after evaluating the merits of the actions and weighing the costs of settling vs. litigating. There are currently no open litigation matters which the Company feels will result in a material loss.

ITEM 2    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

In addition to current and historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements.  These statements relate to our future operations, prospects, potential products, services, developments, business strategies or our future financial performance.  These statements can generally be identified by the use of terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “seek,” “should,” “target,” “will” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions.  Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties.  Actual events or results may differ materially.  We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statement after the date of this report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

Operations

 

The net income in the second quarter of 2015 compares favorably to 2014 in spite of increased operating costs.

 

The new Sarasota, Florida franchise office began contributing to operating results soon after acquisition.

 

Return to Shareholders

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, 10,018 shares of the Company’s stock have been repurchased under the Company’s stock buyback plan.  

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

 

Revenue

 

Revenue was flat in the second quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, as we continue to see the residual affects of uncertain economic and regulatory climates on the Company’s primary members, small businesses.

 

Expenses

 

Operating expenses in the quarter ended June 30, 2015 were $2,987,912, an increase of $46,572 or 1.6% compared to the second quarter of 2014. This increase is primarily due to increased employee benefits costs and increased revenue sharing payments to franchisees.

 

The Company generated operating income of $94,118 for the quarter, compared to operating income of $145,108 in 2014.  After adjusting for interest and income taxes, there was a net profit for the quarter of $30,640 compared to a net profit of $36,007 in the second quarter of 2014.  Interest expense has decreased as the Company has aggressively paid down the debt load taken on strategically in prior years to fund acquisitions and the stock buyback program expanded in 2011.

 

EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

 

Adjustments to Reconcile GAAP Net Income to EBITDA

 

		2015				2014
Net income		$	30,640			$	36,007
Interest expense			42,511				63,078
Income taxes			18,577				46,035
Depreciation and amortization			298,432				334,609
EBITDA		$	390,160			$	479,729

 

 

YEAR TO DATE

 

Revenue

 

Revenue increased 0.8% in the first six months of 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, as we continue to see the residual effects of uncertain economic and tax climates.

 

Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $5,953,312, an increase of $140,777, or 2.4% compared to the first half of 2014. This increase is primarily due to increased employee benefits and franchisee costs.

 

The Company has generated an operating loss of $8,823 for year to date, compared to operating income of $83,109 in 2014.  After adjusting for interest and income taxes, the net loss for the first six months of 2015 was $43,064 compared to a net loss of $7,029 in the comparable period in 2014.  Interest expense has decreased as the Company has aggressively paid down the debt load taken on strategically to fund acquisitions and the stock buyback program expanded in 2011.

 

EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:

 

Adjustments to Reconcile GAAP Net Income to EBITDA

 

		2015				2014
Net loss		$	(43,064	)		$	(7,029	)
Interest expense			87,488				112,997
Income taxes			(55,627	)			(26,908	)
Depreciation and amortization			625,796				670,791
EBITDA		$	614,593			$	749,851

 

LIQUIDITY, SOURCES OF CAPITAL AND LINES OF CREDIT

 

On June 30, 2015, there was a working capital deficit of approximately $78,000, compared to a deficit of approximately $118,000 at December 31, 2014. Working capital deficits are not unusual in the first six months of the year due to the somewhat seasonal nature of the business. We believe that current cash needs can be met with the present cash and investments balances and from working capital generated from operations over the next 12 months. Additionally, the Company has letters of credit with various financial institutions with unused borrowing capacity of approximately $362,000, which may be drawn as needed.

  

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's applications of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for IMS include the following:

 

REVENUE SOURCES AND REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company and its subsidiaries earn revenues in both traditional cash dollars and in IMS trade dollars.

 

Cash Revenue

 

Cash income is earned through fees assessed when a member joins, transaction fees generated when clients earn or spend their trade dollars, annual and monthly maintenance fees, finance charges on delinquent accounts receivable, and event fees.

 

Trade Dollar Revenue

 

Trade revenue is similarly generated through initial membership fees, monthly maintenance fees, transaction fees and event fees. Occasionally the Company will accept a favorable trade ratio in lieu of a cash fee.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

All revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Transaction fees are recognized upon receipt of transactional information accumulated by our systems or reported by our clients.

 

Membership fees, monthly maintenance fees, finance charges, and other fees are billed monthly to members' accounts, and are recognized in the month the revenue is earned.

 

 

Use of Trade Dollars

 

The Company uses earned trade dollars to purchase various goods and services required in its operations. All barter transactions are reported at the estimated fair value of the products or services received.

 

Occasionally, the Company sells IMS trade dollars for US dollars. The cash received in these sales is included in gross revenue and the carrying value of the trade dollars up to the value of the cash received is netted against revenue, with any excess cost included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

 

Accounts receivable are stated at face value, net of the allowance for bad debts. Finance charges on receivables are calculated using the simple interest method on the amount outstanding.

 

The allowance for bad debts is maintained at a level that is management's best estimate of probable bad debts incurred as of the balance sheet date. Management's determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the accounts receivable, past collection experience, current economic conditions, volume, growth and composition of the accounts receivable, and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The allowance is increased by provisions for bad debts charged against income and decreased by accounts written off as uncollectable.

 

GOODWILL AND MEMBERSHIP LISTS

 

Goodwill and membership lists are stated at cost and arise when IMS acquires another company or the assets of another trade exchange. Membership lists are amortized over the estimated life of ten years.

 

The Company tests goodwill and intangible assets at least annually for impairment, or when facts and circumstances indicate impairment is probable. It is the Company’s policy to test impairment at the end of each year. Therefore, no impairment of goodwill or membership lists was recorded in the first six months of 2015.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Management does not anticipate that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements will materially impact the Company’s financial condition.

 

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2015.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during our second fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting .
