CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Nature of Business
Gaming Partners International Corporation (GPIC or the Company) is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada and has three operating subsidiaries: Gaming Partners International USA, Inc. (GPI USA) (including GPI Mexicana S.A. de C.V. (GPI Mexicana), our maquiladora manufacturing operation in Mexico, and GPI USA Blue Springs, our manufacturing facility in Missouri), Gaming Partners International SAS (GPI SAS), and Gaming Partners International Asia Limited (GPI Asia). Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and product focus:
| • | GPI USA sells in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most of the products manufactured in either San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico, or Blue Springs, Missouri. The remainder is either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We also warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona, Blue Springs, Missouri, and at our Las Vegas, Nevada headquarters, and have sales offices in Las Vegas, Nevada; Atlantic City, New Jersey; Gulfport, Mississippi; and Blue Springs, Missouri. |
| • | GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of its office in Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino currencies, including both American-style, known as chips, and European-style, known as plaques and jetons. Most of the products sold by GPI SAS are manufactured in France, with the remainder manufactured in Mexico. |
| • | GPI Asia, located in Macau S.A.R., China, distributes all our casino currencies, radio frequency identification device (RFID) product solutions, playing cards, and other table accessories in the Asia-Pacific region. GPI Asia also sells table layouts and upholstery that it manufactures in Macau S.A.R. |
Our business activities include the manufacture and supply of casino currencies, playing cards, table layouts, gaming furniture, table accessories, dice, upholstery, roulette wheels, and RFID readers and software, all of which are used with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette.
Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GPIC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries GPI SAS, GPI USA, GPI Mexicana, and GPI Asia. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and in the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 20, 2015.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect only normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other interim period or a full fiscal year.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance applies to any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principle of this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance supersedes existing revenue recognition guidance, including most industry-specific guidance, as well as certain related guidance on accounting for contract costs. In July 2015, the FASB approved a deferral of the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to January 1, 2017, and would permit early application though in no case could the new guidance be applied before the original effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Acquisition
On July 1, 2014, we acquired substantially all of the net gaming assets of GemGroup (GemGroup Acquisition), a manufacturer of playing cards, table layouts and casino currency primarily sold under the Gemaco® brand. The results of the GemGroup Acquisition have been consolidated with the Company’s results of operations and cash flows beginning on the date of the acquisition.
Due to integration of the combined businesses since the day of acquisition, it is impracticable to determine the earnings or loss contributed by the acquisition.
The following unaudited supplemental pro forma consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, have been prepared as if the GemGroup Acquisition had occurred at January 1, 2014 (unaudited; in thousands, except for per share data):
| Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||||||||||
| June 30, | June 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2015 | 2014 | 2015 | 2014 | |||||||||||||

| Earnings per share—Diluted | (0.02 | ) | (0.08 | ) | 0.23 | (0.15 | ) | |||||||||
The unaudited supplemental pro forma consolidated results of operations are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have been obtained if the GemGroup Acquisition had actually occurred as of the dates indicated or of those results that may be obtained in the future. These unaudited supplemental pro forma consolidated results of operations were derived, in part, from the historical financial statements of GemGroup and other available information and assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Note 3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities
We hold our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities in financial institutions in various countries throughout the world. Substantially all accounts have balances in excess of government-insured limits. The following summarizes the geographic location of our holdings (in thousands):

| Total marketable securities | $ | 5,724 | $ | - | $ | 5,724 | $ | 3,597 | $ | - | $ | 3,597 | ||||||||||||
We present our marketable securities at their estimated fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We have determined that all of our marketable securities are Level 1 financial instruments, with asset values recorded at quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Note 8. Debt
On June 26, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement (Credit Agreement) with Nevada State Bank (Lender) for a combined $15.0 million, consisting of a $10.0 million seven-year term loan (Term Loan) and a $5.0 million five-year revolving loan (Revolving Loan). The Term Loan will mature on June 26, 2022, and the Revolving Loan will mature on June 26, 2020.
The Company borrowed the full amount under the Term Loan and repaid its existing $10.0 million demand line of credit with HSBC Bank USA, National Association (HSBC) on June 26, 2015. Upon repayment of the $10.0 million demand line of credit with HSBC, all obligations, security interests, liens and guarantees were released by HSBC. The Company has not drawn any funds under the Revolving Loan.
Interest on funds borrowed under the Term Loan and the Revolving Loan will be charged at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 2.25%. The Term Loan has a straight-line seven year amortization schedule.

The Company is required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio greater than 1.15 to 1.00 and leverage ratio less than 3.00 to 1.00.
The Company and its subsidiary, GPI USA, granted to the Lender a first priority security interest in substantially all of their assets as collateral. In addition, the Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries GPI USA and GPI Asia.
Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings and Contingencies
From time to time we are engaged in disputes and claims that arose in the normal course of business. We believe the ultimate outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, but the outcome of these actions is inherently difficult to predict. There can be no assurance that we will prevail in any such litigation. Liabilities for material claims against us are accrued when a loss is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with claims are expensed as incurred.

Note 11. Geographic and Product Line Information
We manufacture and sell casino table game equipment in one operating segment - casino table game products. Although the Company derives its revenues from a number of different product lines, the Company neither allocates resources based on the operating results from the individual product lines, nor manages each individual product line as a separate business unit. Our chief operating decision maker is our Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO manages our operations on a consolidated basis to make decisions about overall corporate resource allocation and to assess overall corporate profitability. Our CEO is also the chief operating manager for each of our entities in the United States, France, and Macau S.A.R.; that is, the individual locations do not have “segment,” or “product line,” managers who report to our CEO.

Note 13. Income Taxes
As of December 31, 2014, we had a valuation allowance of $2.0 million related to foreign tax credit carryovers. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company pledged all of the net assets of GPI Asia as collateral under the new Credit Agreement (see Note 8 – Debt). Under Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code, this pledge results in a deemed dividend from GPI Asia to the Company of approximately $7 million in 2015, subjecting that amount to U.S. taxation. The Company is able to offset the taxes payable on this deemed dividend with foreign tax credits equal to the taxes previously paid in Macau S.A.R. on the earnings deemed repatriated plus unused foreign tax credit carryovers. As a result, the valuation allowance previously recorded is being released into tax expense through the second quarter and the remainder of 2015. Except for the amount of the deemed dividend, the Company continues to assert that earnings from GPI Asia will be permanently reinvested.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion is intended to assist in the understanding of our results of operations and our present financial condition and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes and the other financial information included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contain additional detailed information that should be referred to when reviewing this material. Statements in this discussion may be forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ significantly from those expressed. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 20, 2015.
For a more extensive overview and information on our products, as well as general information, see Item 1. “Business” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 20, 2015.
Overview of Our Business
We custom manufacture and supply casino currency with multiple security and design options. Additionally, we provide multiple RFID technologies including low- and high-frequency RFID casino currency, RFID solutions for casino currency (consisting of low- and high-frequency RFID casino currency readers, antennas, casino currency authentication software, casino currency inventory software applications, and software maintenance services). We also manufacture playing cards, table layouts, dice, gaming furniture, roulette wheels, table accessories, and other products that are used with casino table games such as blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, and roulette. GPIC sells its casino table game equipment under the brand names of Paulson®, Bourgogne et Grasset® (BG®), Gemaco®, Blue Chip (BC®) and Bud Jones®. GPIC is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, with offices in Beaune, France; Macau S.A.R., China; San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico; Blue Springs, Missouri; Atlantic City, New Jersey; and Gulfport, Mississippi. We sell our products to licensed casinos worldwide. We operate in one segment and have three operating subsidiaries: GPI USA (including GPI Mexicana, our maquiladora manufacturing operation in Mexico, and our manufacturing operation in Blue Springs, Missouri), GPI SAS, and GPI Asia. Our subsidiaries have the following distribution and product focus:
| • | GPI USA sells in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and Latin America. GPI USA sells our full product line, with most of the products manufactured in either San Luis Rio Colorado, Mexico, or Blue Springs, Missouri. The remainder is either manufactured in France or purchased from United States vendors. We also warehouse inventory in San Luis, Arizona, Blue Springs, Missouri, and at our Las Vegas, Nevada headquarters, and have sales offices in Las Vegas, Nevada; Atlantic City, New Jersey; Gulfport, Mississippi; and Blue Springs, Missouri. |
| • | GPI SAS sells primarily in Europe and Africa out of its office in Beaune, France. GPI SAS predominantly sells casino currencies, including both American-style, known as chips, and European-style, known as plaques and jetons. Most of the products sold by GPI SAS are manufactured in France, with the remainder manufactured in Mexico. |
| • | GPI Asia, located in Macau S.A.R., China, distributes all our casino currencies, radio frequency identification device (RFID) product solutions, playing cards, and other table accessories in the Asia-Pacific region. GPI Asia also sells table layouts and upholstery that it manufactures in Macau S.A.R. |
On July 1, 2014, GPIC started manufacturing and selling playing cards and table layouts under the Gemaco® brand name in connection with the GemGroup Acquisition. In December 2014, we completed the relocation of all our playing card production from Mexico to Gemaco’s facility in Blue Springs, Missouri in order to take advantage of their capacity and manufacturing expertise. The consolidation was part of our strategic plan to improve the efficiency of our playing card production and has provided significant savings in the manufacturing of playing cards. Further, the GemGroup Acquisition expanded our product offerings in the growing Asia-Pacific region as the Gemaco brand has a strong market presence in the Asia-Pacific layout business.
| 14 |
Historically, we have experienced significant fluctuations in quarterly results primarily due to large, discreet currency orders as a result of casino openings, casino expansions, or large replacement orders. However, we anticipate such fluctuations to somewhat lessen as a result of the GemGroup Acquisition due to our increased market share of both playing cards and table layouts, two important sources of recurring revenue. Our backlog, which reflects signed orders, was as follows at June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 (in millions):
| GPI USA | GPI Asia | GPI SAS | Total | |||||||||||||
| June 30, 2015 | $ | 5.7 million | $ | 9.1 million | $ | 0.9 million | $ | 15.6 million | ||||||||
| June 30, 2014 | $ | 4.0 million | $ | 7.0 million | $ | 0.4 million | $ | 11.4 million | ||||||||
Outlook
On April 29, 2015, we received a $7.2 million order to supply gaming chips and plaques for a new casino in Macau S.A.R. The order includes the Company’s Bourgogne et Grasset brand of plaques as well as the newly released V-Series American style chips. This order is expected to deliver later this year.
Several large casino openings are planned for early 2016 and beyond in the Asia-Pacific region. Accordingly, we anticipate that our 2015 currency revenues will be higher than 2014. We will continue to experience a significant increase in playing cards and table layout revenue as a result of the GemGroup Acquisition. Playing cards in particular will be a larger percentage of overall revenue than in past quarters.
Financial and Operational Highlights
For the second quarter of 2015, our revenues were $16.2 million, an increase of $6.0 million, or 59.1%, compared to revenues of $10.2 million for the same period of 2014. For the second quarter of 2015, net income before taxes was $0.5 million compared with a pretax loss of $1.0 million in the same period of the prior year. After tax net loss was $0.1 million, compared to a net loss of $1.2 million for the same period in 2014, due to the increase in pre-tax results offset by discrete tax impacts related to GPI Asia’s guaranty of a term loan with Nevada State Bank (see Note 13 – Income Taxes). The increase in results for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 is primarily due to the additional business generated by the GemGroup Acquisition.
For the first six months of 2015, our revenues were $34.9 million, an increase of $14.1 million, or 68.0%, compared to revenues of $20.8 million for the same period of 2014. For the first six months of 2015, our net income was $1.8 million, compared to net loss of $2.3 million for the same period of 2014. The increase in results for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014 is primarily due to the additional business generated by the GemGroup Acquisition.
GPI SAS uses the euro as its functional currency. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rates were $1.11 and $1.22, respectively, which represents a 9.0% stronger dollar compared to the euro. The average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were $1.12 and $1.36, respectively, which represents a 17.6% stronger dollar compared to the euro.
GPI Mexicana uses the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Mexican peso to U.S. dollar exchange rates were 15.66 and 14.47, respectively, which represents a 8.2% stronger dollar compared to the peso. The average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 15.13 pesos and 13.11 pesos to the U.S. dollar, respectively, which represents a 15.4% stronger dollar compared to the Mexican peso.
GPI Asia, our exclusive distributor for GPI USA and GPI SAS products in the Asia-Pacific region, and our layout manufacturer in the Asia-Pacific region, uses the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. We believe the impact of the Macanese pataca to U.S. dollar exchange rate is immaterial because of the number of transactions using the local currency is minimal.
Other Matters
On July 1, 2014, we acquired substantially all of the net gaming assets of GemGroup for $19.75 million, using a combination of cash and bank financing. GemGroup was a manufacturer of playing cards, casino currency, and table layouts primarily sold under the Gemaco brand (see Note 2 – Acquisition).
On June 26, 2015, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Nevada State Bank for a combined $15.0 million, consisting of a $10.0 million seven-year term loan and a $5.0 million five-year revolving loan (see Note 8 – Debt).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our consolidated condensed financial statements included in this report, while unaudited, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Financial statement preparation requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the same critical accounting estimates discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 20, 2015. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Comparison of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014
Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, our revenues were $16.2 million, an increase of $6.0 million, or 59.1%, compared to revenues of $10.2 million for the same period of 2014. The increase is primarily due to the additional business generated by the GemGroup Acquisition.
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, our revenues were $34.9 million, an increase of $14.1 million, or 68.0%, compared to revenues of $20.8 million for the same period of 2014. The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to the additional business generated by the GemGroup Acquisition, and a large order of RFID solutions delivered to a customer in Macau S.A.R.
Cost of Revenues. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, cost of revenues was $11.6 million, an increase of $4.1 million, or 55.6%, compared to cost of revenues of $7.5 million for the same period in 2014. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues decreased to 71.5% in 2015 compared to 73.1% in 2014. The increased cost of revenues was driven by the same factors described under Revenues above and Gross Profit below.
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, cost of revenues was $23.9 million, an increase of $8.6 million, or 56.9%, compared to cost of revenues of $15.3 million for the same period in 2014. As a percentage of revenues, our cost of revenues decreased to 68.6% in 2015 compared to 73.5% in 2014. The increased cost of revenues was driven by the same factors described under Revenues above and Gross Profit below.
Gross Profit. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, gross profit was $4.6 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 68.3%, compared to gross profit of $2.8 million for the same period in 2014. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit increased to 28.5% from 26.9%.
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, gross profit was $11.0 million, an increase of $5.5 million, or 98.8%, compared to gross profit of $5.5 million for the same period in 2014. As a percentage of revenues, our gross profit increased to 31.4% from 26.5%.
The gross profit improvements are primarily due to efficiency improvement in our playing card production as a result of completing the relocation of all our playing card production from Mexico to our facility in Blue Springs, Missouri in December 2014. An additional factor is a stronger dollar as compared to the euro.
Selling, Administrative, and Research and Development Expenses. The following tables present the selling, administrative, and research and development expenses (in thousands) and as a percentage of revenues:

Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 138.6% and (15.4%), respectively. As of December 31, 2014, we had a valuation allowance of $2.0 million related to foreign tax credit carryovers. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company pledged all of the net assets of GPI Asia as collateral under the new Credit Agreement. Under Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code, this pledge results in a deemed dividend from GPI Asia to the Company of approximately $7 million in 2015, subjecting that amount to U.S. taxation. The Company is able to offset the taxes payable on this deemed dividend with foreign tax credits equal to the taxes previously paid in Macau S.A.R. on the earnings deemed repatriated plus unused foreign tax credit carryovers. As a result, the valuation allowance previously recorded is being released into tax expense through the second quarter and the remainder of 2015. Related to this, there was a discrete expense of approximately $0.4 million recorded in the second quarter of 2015.
Our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 16.5% and (14.7%), respectively. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was favorably affected by the release of the valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits, the foreign rate differential on income from GPI Asia, and the benefit from a research credit from our French subsidiary, GPI SAS; partially offset by the current year tax impact of a deemed dividend from GPI Asia and our Subpart F income adjustment. Without the discrete release in the valuation allowance related to foreign tax credits, our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 would have been 24.7% and 23.9%, respectively.
We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. In 2015, the French Tax Administration started an examination of GPI SAS for tax years 2013 and 2012. There were no unrecognized tax benefits reported at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity and Capital Resources. Historically, our primary source of liquidity and capital resources has been cash from operations. On June 26, 2015, The Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Nevada State Bank for a combined $15.0 million, consisting of a $10.0 million seven-year term loan and a $5.0 million five-year revolving loan. The Company borrowed the full amount under the Term Loan and repaid its existing $10.0 million demand line of credit with HSBC Bank USA, National Association (HSBC) on June 26, 2015. The Company has not drawn any funds under the Revolving Loan.
Interest on funds borrowed under the Term Loan and the Revolving Loan will be charged at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 2.25%. The Term Loan has a straight-line seven year amortization schedule. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by GPIC and its subsidiaries GPI USA and GPI Asia.
Other potential sources of capital include, but are not limited to, marketable securities and bank credit facilities both in the United States and abroad. We believe that the combination of these resources will satisfy our needs for working capital, capital expenditures, purchases of common stock under our stock repurchase program, litigation, dividends or acquisitions.
At June 30, 2015, we had $14.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.7 million in marketable securities, totaling $20.3 million. Of this amount, $7.8 million is held by GPI SAS, $7.5 million is held by GPI Asia, and $5.0 million is held by GPI USA. Of those amounts held outside of the United States, we would be subject to taxation in the United States if we were to repatriate those amounts, though foreign tax credits may be available to offset such taxes. All of the amounts currently held in Asia could be repatriated tax free due to the deemed dividend from GPI Asia (see Note 13 – Income Tax). Except for the amount of the deemed dividend, the Company continues to assert that earnings from GPI Asia will be permanently reinvested. We may repatriate amounts from GPI SAS and, accordingly, our consolidated condensed financial statements reflect the tax impacts that would result from repatriation.
Working Capital. The following summarizes our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and working capital (all in thousands), and our current ratio:
| June 30, | December 31, | Period-to-Period | ||||||||||||||
| 2015 | 2014 | Change | ||||||||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 14,625 | $ | 8,969 | $ | 5,656 | 63.1 | % | ||||||||
| Marketable securities | 5,724 | 3,597 | 2,127 | 59.1 | % | |||||||||||
| Working capital | 26,104 | 16,195 | 9,909 | 61.2 | % | |||||||||||
| Current ratio | 2.6 | 1.8 | ||||||||||||||
| 20 |
At June 30, 2015, working capital totaled $26.1 million, an increase of $9.9 million, or 61.2%, compared to working capital of $16.2 million at December 31, 2014. This increase is due to an increase in current assets of $6.5 million and a decrease in current liabilities of $3.4 million. The increase in current assets is primarily related to an increase in cash. The decrease in current liabilities is primarily related to the payoff of the $10.0 million demand line of credit somewhat offset by the current portion of the seven-year term loan, and a $3.3 million increase in customer deposits and deferred revenue.
Cash Flows. The following summarizes our cash flows (in thousands):
| Six Months Ended | ||||||||||||||||
| June 30, | Period-to-Period | |||||||||||||||
| 2015 | 2014 | Change | ||||||||||||||
| Operating activities | $ | 9,164 | $ | 1,590 | $ | 7,574 | 476.3 | % | ||||||||
| Investing activities | (3,214 | ) | (10,543 | ) | 7,329 | (69.5 | )% | |||||||||
| Financing activities | 87 | 10,000 | (9,913 | ) | (99.1 | )% | ||||||||||
| Effect of exchange rates | (381 | ) | (22 | ) | (359 | ) | 1,631.8 | % | ||||||||
| Net change | $ | 5,656 | $ | 1,025 | $ | 4,631 | (451.8 | )% | ||||||||
The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities was primarily caused by an increase in net income of $4.1 million and an increase in liabilities of $4.8 million, which is primarily due to an increase in customer deposits and income tax payable, offset by a decrease in assets of $0.5 million and a decrease in non-cash items of $0.8 million.
The decrease in cash flows used by investing activities was primarily due to the decrease of restricted cash for the $10.0 million demand line of credit with HSBC somewhat offset by a $3.1 million change in net marketable securities.
The decrease in cash flows provided by financing activities was due to the payoff of the HSBC $10.0 million demand line of credit.
Capital Expenditures. We plan to purchase approximately $2.9 million in property, plant, and equipment during the remainder of 2015. In the first six months of 2015, we purchased $0.8 million of property, plant, and equipment.
Cash Dividend. Our Board of Directors has no current plans to pay a regular dividend on our common stock, but may evaluate the merit of paying a dividend from time to time.
Backlog. At June 30, 2015, our backlog of signed orders for 2015 was $15.6 million, consisting of $5.7 million for GPI USA, $9.1 million for GPI Asia, and $0.9 million for GPI SAS. At June 30, 2014, our backlog of signed orders for 2014 was $11.4 million, consisting of $7.0 million for GPI Asia, $4.0 million for GPI USA, and $0.4 million for GPI SAS.
Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments
On June 26, 2015, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Nevada State Bank for a combined $15.0 million, consisting of a $10.0 million seven-year term loan and a $5.0 million five-year revolving loan (see Note 8 – Debt).
