Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

  

Note 1 Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Speed Commerce, Inc. (the “Company” or “Speed Commerce”), a Minnesota corporation formed in 1983, is a provider of web platform development and hosting, customer care, fulfillment, order management, logistics and call center capabilities for clients.

 

In April 2015, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had initiated a process to explore and consider possible strategic alternatives for enhancing shareholder value. These alternatives could include, but are not limited to, a recapitalization or a sale or merger of the Company. The Board of Directors is overseeing this process and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company has been retained as financial and strategic advisor to the Company.

  

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Speed Commerce have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (“GAAP”) in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements.

 

All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

Because of the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the operating results and cash flows for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Speed Commerce, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2015.

 

Significant accounting policies

 

There were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended March 31, 2015.

  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

  

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("Update 2014-09"), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date of ASU 2014-09 and the new standard is now effective for the Company on April 1, 2018, and early application beginning April 1, 2017 is permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, (“ASU 2014-15”), “Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. ASU 2014-15 requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued and provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going concern uncertainties in the financial statements. Certain disclosures will be required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 applies to all entities and is effective for annual and interim reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-15 will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest — Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require the debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 Acquisition 

 

Fifth Gear

 

On November 21, 2014, the Company completed the purchase of the Fifth Gear Assets. Total consideration included: $55.0 million in cash at closing, and up to 7,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock upon Fifth Gear’s achieving certain financial metrics for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014.  The cash paid at closing was funded by the Company's Amended and Restated Credit Facility.   The combined fair value of the earn-out consideration was estimated to be $10.4 million based upon Level 3 fair value valuation techniques (unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions).  A financial model was applied to estimate the value of the consideration that utilized the income approach and option pricing theory to compute expected values and probabilities of reaching the various thresholds in the agreement. Key assumptions included (i) the product of nine times the 2014 Adjusted EBITDA of Seller, on a combined and consolidated basis exceeds (ii) $55 million in an amount not to exceed 7,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

In April 2015, the purchase agreement was amended to increase the maximum number of common shares for the earn-out consideration that could be earned from 7,000,000 shares to 8,400,000 shares in conjunction with the April 2015 equity offering.

 

A gain of $0.1 million and $2.2 million were recognized for the three and six months ended September 30, 2015 related to the contingent earn out obligation. The gain was included in other income (expense) in our statement of operations recorded under liability method.   The Company issued 8.4 million shares, valued at $2.3 million, to the Sellers during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 pursuant to the earn out obligation.

 

The goodwill of $32.3 million arising from the Purchase Agreement consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and Fifth Gear. This transaction qualified as an acquisition of a significant business pursuant to Regulation S-X and financial statements for the acquired business were filed.

 

The purchase price was allocated based on preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows (in thousands):

 

The Fifth Gear purchase price was allocated as follows:

       

Accounts receivable

  $ 5,175  

Inventory

    1,190

Accounts payable

    (1,513 )

Accrued expenses and other liabilities

    (2,444 )
    $ 64,755  

 

Net revenue of Fifth Gear, included in net revenue - in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended September 30, 2015 was $13.3 million and $28.1 million, respectively.  Fifth Gear provided operating income of $1.2 million and $3.3 million to the consolidated Company’s operating income for the three and six months ended September 30, 2015.

 

The following summary, prepared on a condensed pro forma basis presents the Company’s unaudited consolidated results from operations as if the acquisition of Fifth Gear had been completed at the beginning of each period presented.  The pro forma presentation below does not include any impact of transaction costs or synergies.

Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

The Company estimates the fair value using various valuation techniques, with the primary technique being a discounted cash flow analysis. A discounted cash flow analysis requires the Company to make various assumptions about sales, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates. Assumptions about discount rates are based on a weighted-average cost of capital derived from observable market inputs and comparable company data. Assumptions about sales, operating margins and growth rates are based on management’s forecasts, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. Assumptions are also made for varying perpetual growth rates for periods beyond the long-term business plan period.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company identified potential indicators of impairment including its declining price per share of common stock and issues with its ability to repay its debt as scheduled and maintain compliance with its financial covenants. Therefore, the Company performed Step 2 assessments of its goodwill and intangible assets using widely-accepted valuation techniques and recorded impairment charges reducing goodwill and trademarks by $16.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively as of September 30, 2015. The impairment charges were allocated to the Company's two reporting units, SCC and Fifth Gear, by comparing the carrying value of the relevant reporting unit to the fair value of that reporting unit.

Litigation and Proceedings

 

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in a number of litigation/arbitration and administrative/regulatory matters that are incidental to the operation of the Company’s business. These proceedings generally include, among other things, various matters with regard to products distributed by the Company and services provided by the Company, disagreements regarding ownership of intellectual property, the payment of amounts owed by the Company to third parties, and the collection of accounts receivable owed to the Company.

 

The Company does not currently believe that the resolution of any pending matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity, but an adverse decision in more than one could be material to the Company’s consolidated results of operations.  No amounts were accrued with respect to proceedings as of September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively as not probable or estimable.

 

Note 8 Bank Financing and Debt

 

Term Loan Credit Facility Opened in November 2014

 

On November 21, 2014, the Company entered into a five-year, $100 million Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement with various lenders and Garrison Loan Agency Services, LLC (“Garrison”) acting as the agent (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”). Upon the closing of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, $100 million was funded to the Company, less certain fees and costs. The principal amount of the loans provided under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are subject to repayment through an annual excess cash sweep and will be amortized at a rate of 2.5% annually through September 30, 2015, a rate of 3.0% annually through September 30, 2016, a rate of 3.5% annually through September 30, 2017, a rate of 5.0% annually through the remaining term of the credit facility. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility replaced in its entirety the Company’s prior credit facility dated July 9, 2014.

 

On May 8, 2015, the Company entered into a Consent and Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Facility. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, (i) the Company obtained permission to add back certain balance sheet write-offs to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined) for the calculation of financial covenants, (ii) subject to lender approval, the Company obtained the ability to add back certain restructuring, transaction fees and expenses and one-time charges not exceed $2.5 million to the calculation of financial covenants, (iii) the interest rate on the facility increased to LIBOR +11%, with a 1% LIBOR floor, (iv) the Company agreed to an amendment fee equal to 200 basis points, (v) the Company agreed to provide Garrison with certain additional forecasts and updates regarding the Company’s liquidity and financial condition, and (vi) the Company is required to maintain a minimum of $1 million of unrestricted cash at all times. The interest rate on the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility at September 30, 2015 was 12%. 

 

On June 30, 2015, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility to modify certain terms with respect to the timing of certain payments under the Credit Agreement.

 

 On July 2, 2015, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The Credit Agreement was amended to: (i) remove a financial covenant requiring that the Company have a minimum amount of excess liquidity; and (ii) reduce the amount of certain interest payments scheduled to be made with respect to the quarterly periods ending on June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015, with the amount of such reduction being added to the principal amount of the loans provided under the credit facility.

  

On July 22, 2015, the Company entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility to provide up to an additional $5 million of term loans of which $2 million were funded to the Company. The remaining $3 million were funded to the Company on August 20, 2015.

 

On September 17, 2015, the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility to delete certain non-financial covenants and to waive any defaults by the Company.

 

As of September 30, 2015, the Company obtained a waiver of compliance with all covenants of the credit facility, as amended.

 

Due to uncertainties in the Company’s ability to determine whether or not it will be able to meet loan covenants through March 31, 2016, the entire balance owed under the credit facility has been reclassified as a current liability in accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015 (See Note 11 Subsequent Events).

 

In addition to the convenants discussed above, the Amended and Restated Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. The financial covenants include a limitation on capital expenditures, a minimum EBITDA level, a maximum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a maximum indebtedness to EBITDA ratio. The creation of indebtedness outside the credit facility, creation of liens, making of certain investments, sale of assets, and incurrence of debt are all either limited or require prior approval from Garrison and/or the other lenders under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. This credit facility also contains customary events of default such as nonpayment, bankruptcy, and change in control, which if they occur may constitute an event of default. See also Note 11 Subsequent Events. The credit facility is secured by a first priority security interest on substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Inventory Facility

 

On November 21, 2014, the Company entered into a secured revolving credit agreement with a client in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $3.5 million. The revolving credit agreement is secured by inventory ordered from approved suppliers and cash and receivables from the client’s customers, the interest rate charged was LIBOR plus 1.5%. At September 30, 2015 the facility had an outstanding balance of $1.9 million which is included in other current liabilities and an interest rate of 2.5%.

   

Letters of Credit

 

On April 14, 2011, the Company was released from the FUNimation office lease guaranty by providing a five-year, standby letter of credit for $1.5 million, which is reduced by $300,000 each subsequent year. The standby letter of credit can be drawn down, to the extent in default, if the full and prompt payment of the lease is not completed by FUNimation. No claims have been made against this financial instrument. There was no indication that FUNimation would not be able to pay the required future lease payments totaling $1.3 million and $1.6 million at September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively. Therefore, at September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company did not believe a future draw on the standby letter of credit was probable and an accrual related to any future obligation was not considered necessary at such times.

 

The Company has issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit for the benefit of the landlord of one of its facilities in the amount of $576,424, this standby letter of credit expires on August 8, 2017.

 

Note 9 Income Taxes

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded income tax benefit from continuing operations of $674,000, compared to income tax expense from continuing operations of $119,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily relates to the impairment of indefinate lived intangibles for which a deferred tax liability must be recorded. The Company will continue to incur deferred tax expense in the future as tax amortization occurs. The effective income tax rate applied to continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was a positive 2.5%, compared to a negative 6.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded income tax benefit from continuing operations of $466,000, compared to income tax expense from continuing operations of $173,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2014. The effective income tax rate applied to continuing operations for the six months ended September 30, 2015 was a positive 1.7%, compared to a negative 3.4% for the six months ended September 30, 2014.

 

The Company does not consider any foreign earnings as permanently reinvested in foreign jurisdictions and records deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to its foreign operations.

 

Deferred tax assets are evaluated by considering historical levels of income, estimates of future taxable income streams and the impact of tax planning strategies. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not, based on the weight of available evidence, the Company would not be able to realize all or part of its deferred tax assets. An assessment is required of all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine the amount of any required valuation allowance.

 

As of September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company had a valuation allowance of $60.7 million and $53.5 million, which has been recorded to offset net deferred tax assets of $60.0 million and $52.2 million, respectively. The net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance are composed of temporary differences, primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards, which will begin to expire in fiscal 2029. The Company also has foreign tax credit carryforwards which will begin to expire in 2016.

 

As of September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company provided for a liability of $1.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest and penalties) related to various income tax matters, which was included in long-term deferred tax liabilities. 

 

The Company does not anticipate that the total unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change prior to March 31, 2016.

Note 10 Shareholders’ Equity and Earnings (loss) Per Share

 

NASDAQ Delisting Notice

 

On April 6, 2015, the Company received written notice from NASDAQ Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Global Market. NASDAQ requires listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share, and NASDAQ rules provide that a failure to meet the minimum bid price requirement exists if the deficiency continues for a period of thirty consecutive business days. Based on the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the thirty consecutive business days prior to the date of the Notification Letter, the Company no longer meets the minimum bid price requirement.

 

On October 6, 2015, the Company received approval from NASDAQ to transfer the listing of its common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market to the NASDAQ Capital Market. This transfer was effective upon the opening of business on October 8, 2015. Following the transfer of its listing, the Company has been granted an additional 180-day grace period to regain compliance with NASDAQ's $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance and qualify for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the minimum bid price per share of the Company’s common stock must be at least $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during the additional 180-day grace period, which will end on April 4, 2016. If the Company fails to regain compliance during this grace period, its common stock will be subject to delisting by NASDAQ. The Company has provided written notice of its intention to cure the minimum bid price deficiency during the second grace period by carrying out a reverse stock split, if necessary.

 

The Company is currently considering available options to resolve its compliance with the minimum bid price requirement and to regain compliance with NASDAQ’s listing requirements. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so.

 

Stock and Warrant Offering

 

On April 16, 2015, we sold 13,035,713 shares of our common stock, Series A Warrants to purchase up to 7,776,784 shares of our common stock and Series B Warrants to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Each share of our common stock was sold together with 0.597 of a Series A Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.56 per share and 0.153 of a Series B Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.56 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $6.8 million. The Series A Warrants are exercisable on the one-year anniversary of the date of issuance and expire on the fifth anniversary of the date they first become exercisable. The Series B Warrants are exercisable beginning one year and one day from the date of issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date they first become exercisable. The shares of common stock, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants are immediately separable. Based on fair value allocation $2.0 million of the proceeds from the stock offering were assigned to the warrants and included in other current liabilities. The warrants are accounted for as liability awards and subject to mark-to-market accounting.

 

As a result of the offering, the Series C warrants’ exercise price was reduced to $2.68 per common share and the conversion price of the Series D preferred stock was reduced to $1.19 per common share.

 

In connection with the equity issuance, certain members of our executive management team and board of directors cancelled a total of 2,327,606 granted options. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash $0.3 million reduction of stock compensation expense within general and administrative expense in the statement of operations.

 

On June 30, 2015, shareholders approved an amendment to Speed Commerce, Inc.’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000. 

 

In first six months of fiscal year 2016, we recognized $1.5 million of gain for as fair value adjustments which is included in other income (expense) in our statement of operations for Series A, Series B and Series C Warrants.

The per share amounts also exclude the as-if conversion of the preferred stock and warrants as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended September 30, 2015.

 

Note 11 Subsequent Events 

 

On October 6, 2015, the Company entered into the Seventh Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility to provide up to an additional $3 million of term loans of which $1.5 million were funded to the Company. The Company may request that the remaining $1.5 million to be funded at any time prior to December 23, 2015. The financial terms are generally consistent with those of the existing borrowings provided to the Company under the credit agreement.

 

On October 9, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amendment Agreement with Wynit Distribution, LLC to reduce the current principal of a promissory note receivable from Wynit to zero; discharged any and all indemnification claims by Buyers arising from the purchase; and eliminates Buyers’ ability to make any other claims relating to the representations and warranties. The reduction in the value of the note receivable of $1.4 million was recognized as of September 30, 2015 as Type I subsequent event. Accordingly, the Company reduced the value of the note receivable, which was included as a long-term other asset, to zero and recognized a loss on sale of discontinued operations in the statement of operations of $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

 

On November 16, 2015, the Company entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility which waived all covenant violations through September 30, 2015. Due to uncertainties in the Company’s ability to determine whether it will be able to meet existing loan covenants through March 31, 2016, the Credit Facility has been reclassified as a current liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015. The amendment deleted prior non-financial covenants and includes a covenant that the Company enter into an agreement to sell all or substantially all of its business which is satisfactory to the lenders by December 11, 2015. Through September 30, 2015, the Company has made every scheduled payment of principal and interest on its Credit Facility, as amended.

In April 2015, we announced that our Board of Directors has initiated a process to explore and consider possible strategic alternatives for enhancing shareholder value. These alternatives could include, but are not limited to, a recapitalization or a sale or merger of the Company. The Board of Directors is overseeing this process and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company has been retained as financial and strategic advisor to the Company.

 

On April 16, 2015, we sold 13,035,713 shares of our common stock, Series A Warrants to purchase up to 7,776,784 shares of our common stock and Series B Warrants to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Each share of our common stock was sold together with 0.597 of a Series A Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.56 per share and 0.153 of a Series B Warrant to purchase one share of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.56 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $6.8 million. The Series A Warrants are exercisable on the one-year anniversary of the date of issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date they first become exercisable. The Series B Warrants are exercisable beginning one year and one day from the date of issuance and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the date they first become exercisable. The shares of common stock, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants are immediately separable.

 

As a result of the offering, the Series C warrants’ exercise price was reduced to $2.68 per common share and the conversion price of the Series D preferred stock was reduced to $1.19 per common share.

 

In connection with the equity issuance, our executive management team and board of directors cancelled a total of 2,327,606 granted options. As a result, the Company recorded a non-cash $0.3 million reduction of stock compensation expense within general and administrative expense in the statement of operations.

 

On June 30, 2015, shareholders approved an amendment to Speed Commerce, Inc.’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000.

 

On October 6, 2015, we received approval from NASDAQ to transfer the listing of our common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market to the NASDAQ Capital market. This transfer was effective upon the opening of business on October 8, 2015. Following the transfer of its listing, we were granted an additional 180-day grace period to regain compliance with the NASDAQ's $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance and qualify for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the minimum bid price per share of our common stock must be at least $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during the additional 180-day grace period, which will end on April 4, 2016. If we fail to regain compliance during this grace period, our common stock will be subject to delisting by NASDAQ. The Company has provided written notice of its intention to cure the minimum bid price deficiency during the second grace period by carrying out a reverse stock split, if necessary.

 

On October 9, 2015, we entered into a Second Amendment Agreement with Wynit Distribution, LLC to reduce the current principal of a promissory note payable to from Wynit to zero; discharged any and all indemnification claims by Buyers arising from the purchase; and eliminates Buyers’ ability to make any other claims relating to the representations and warranties. The reduction in the value of the note receivable of $1.4 million was recognized as of September 30, 2015 as Type I subsequent event. Accordingly, we reduced the value of the note receivable, which was included as a long-term other asset, to zero and recognized a loss on sale of discontinued operations in the statement of operations of $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

Working Capital and Capital Resources

 

Throughout fiscal 2015 and 2016 we have invested in a variety of growth initiatives for our e-commerce business, several e-commerce web sites for new clients, and expansion of our Ohio fulfillment center. We finance our operations through cash and cash equivalents, funds generated through operations, accounts payable and the credit facility. The timing of required payments can significantly impact our working capital levels. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, our credit facility was amended to convert $4.8 million of interest to principal.

 

Our on-going liquidity is primarily affected by three factors: (i) interest and principal payments on our credit facility and other debt, (ii) cash flow from operations and (iii) our capital expenditures. In an effort to maintain our liquidity, we have delayed capital expenditures, reduced costs and fund the dividends for the convertible preferred stock through additional shares of preferred stock. We will continue to seek additional opportunities to reduce cash costs and/or complete a financing to provide additional liquidity.

 

On May 8, 2015, we entered into a Consent and Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement with Garrison. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, (i) we obtained permission to add back certain balance sheet write-offs to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined) for the calculation of financial covenants, (ii) subject to lender approval, we obtained the ability to add back certain restructuring, transaction fees and expenses and one-time charges not exceed $2.5 million to the calculation of financial covenants, (iii) the interest rate on the facility increased to LIBOR +11%, with a 1% LIBOR floor, (iv) we agreed to an amendment fee equal to 200 basis points, (v) we agreed to provide Garrison with certain additional forecasts and updates regarding our liquidity and financial condition, and (vi) we are required to maintain a minimum of $1 million of unrestricted cash at all times. The interest rate on the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility at June 30, 2015 was 12%.

 

On June 30, 2015, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement to modify certain terms with respect to the timing of certain payments under the Credit Agreement. 

 

On July 2, 2015, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to: (i) remove a financial covenant requiring that we have a minimum amount of excess liquidity; and (ii) reduce the amount of certain interest payments scheduled to be made with respect to the quarterly periods ending on June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015, with the amount of such reduction being added to the principal amount of the loans provided under the Credit Agreement.

 

   On July 22, 2015, we entered into the Fifth Amendment to provide up to an additional $5 million of term loans which was subsequently funded to us. 

 

On September 17, 2015, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to delete certain non-financial covenants and to waive any defaults by us.

 

On October 6, 2015, we entered into the Seventh Amendment to provide up to an additional $3 million of term loans and $1.5 million were funded to the Company. We may request that the remaining $1.5 million to be funded at any time prior to December 23, 2015. The financial terms are generally consistent with those of the existing borrowings provided to us under the Credit Agreement.

 

On November 16, 2015, we entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which waived all covenant violations through September 30, 2015. Due to uncertainties in our ability to determine whether we will be able to meet existing loan covenants through March 31, 2016, the credit facility has been reclassified as a current liability in the our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015. Through September 30, 2015, we have made every scheduled payment of principal and interest on our Credit Agreement, as amended.

 

Forward-Looking Statements / Risk Factors

 

We make written and oral statements from time to time regarding our business and prospects, such as projections of future performance, statements of management’s plans and objectives, forecasts of market trends, and other matters that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Statements containing the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimates,” “projects,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “target,” “goal,” “plans,” “objective,” “should” or similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which may appear in documents, reports, filings with the SEC, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, news releases, written or oral presentations made by officers or other representatives made by us to analysts, shareholders, investors, news organizations and others and discussions with management and other representatives. For such statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

 

Our future results, including results related to forward-looking statements, involve a number of risks and uncertainties and you should not place undue reliance on these statements. No assurance can be given that the results reflected in any forward-looking statement will be achieved. Any forward-looking statement made by or on behalf of us speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made. Our forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that are sometimes based upon estimates, data, communications and other information from suppliers, government agencies and other sources that may be subject to revision. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or keep current either (i) any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of such statement, or (ii) the important factors that could cause our future results to differ materially from historical results or trends, results anticipated or planned by us, or which are reflected from time to time in any forward-looking statement which may be made by or on behalf of us.

In addition to other matters identified or described by us from time to time in filings with the SEC, there are several important factors that could cause our future results to differ materially from historical results or trends, results anticipated or planned by us, or results that are reflected from time to time in any forward-looking statement that may be made by or on behalf of us.

 

Some of these important factors, but not necessarily all important factors, include the following:

 

  our ability to continue to meet the financial and non-financial covenants in our credit agreement and to obtain a definitive agreement to sell the Company by December 11, 2015;
     
  our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market;
     

 

● 

our service fee revenue and gross margin is dependent upon our clients’ business and transaction volumes and our costs;

 

 

 

 

● 

we may incur significant expenditures to expand our business which may reduce our ability to achieve or maintain profitability;

 

 

 

 

● 

technological developments, particularly software as a service application, electronic transfer and downloading could adversely impact sales, margins and results of operations;

 

 

 

 

● 

our restructuring and integration efforts, may have unpredictable outcomes, including the possibility of us incurring additional restructuring charges;

 

 

 

 

● 

the seasonality and variability in our business could adversely affect our results of operations;

 

 

 

 

● 

our ability to meet our significant working capital requirements or if working capital requirements change significantly;

     

 

● 

our ability to identify or complete any potential strategic transaction;

     

 

● 

certain of our contracts are terminable at will or contain penalty provisions;

     

 

● 

we may incur financial penalties if we fail to meet contractual service levels under client service agreements;

     

 

● 

the expected benefits of our acquisitions may not be realized, and the indemnification obligations owed to us in connection with that transaction may be insufficiently supported;

     

 

● 

our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future tax payments may be limited; and

     

 

● 

our e-commerce business has inherent cybersecurity risks that may disrupt our business.

 

A detailed statement of risks and uncertainties is contained in our reports to the SEC, including, in particular, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2015 and other public filings and disclosures. Investors and shareholders are urged to read these documents carefully.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, goodwill and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, share-based compensation, income taxes, and contingencies and litigation. There have been no material changes to these critical accounting policies as discussed in greater detail under this heading in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2015.

Results from Continuing Operations

 

Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2014

 

Net Revenue

 

Net revenue was $31.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $23.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $8.2 million, or 35.8%. The increase was primarily attributable to our Fifth Gear acquisition, offset by a decrease in freight service revenue and the departure of a significant client.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue was $26.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $17.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $8.4 million, or 47.9%. The increase was primarily due to our Fifth Gear acquisition and higher operating costs in our Ohio fulfillment center.

 

Operating Expenses

  

Selling and marketing expenses were $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 9.6%. The decrease was primarily attributable to decrease in the marketing programs for the introduction of SARA, our pre-configured accelerator for Oracle Commerce for midsize e-commerce retailers.

 

General and administrative expenses were $5.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $1.2 million, or 28.4%. The increase was primarily due to incremental Fifth Gear expenses. General and administrative expenses consisted principally of executive, accounting and administrative personnel and related expenses, including professional fees.

 

Information technology expenses were $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $0.4 million or 42.9%. The increase was primarily attributable to our Fifth Gear acquisition and personnel growth in IT infrastructure.

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $1.7 million or 87.2%. The increase was primarily attributable to amortization of our intangible assets and newly acquired intangible assets from our Fifth Gear acquisition.

 

Goodwill and impairment charge was $17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to zero for the three months ended September 30, 2014. During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we concluded that indicators of impairment were present due to sustained decline of our share price and results of our operations.

Interest expense, net 

 

Interest expense was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to expense of $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $2.8 million or 326.1%. The increase principally reflected higher average debt balances as a result of the refinancing of the credit facility.

 

Six Months Ended September 30, 2015 compared to Six Months Ended September 30, 2014

 

Net Revenue

 

Net revenue was $65.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $45.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $20.6 million, or 45.6%. The increase was primarily attributable to our Fifth Gear acquisition, offset by a decrease in freight service revenue and the departure of a significant client.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue was $51.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $34.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $16.7 million, or 47.9%. The increase was primarily due to our Fifth Gear acquisition and higher operating costs in our Ohio fulfillment center.

 

Operating Expenses

  

Selling and marketing expenses were $1.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 26.6%. The decrease was primarily attributable to decrease in the marketing programs for the introduction of SARA, our pre-configured accelerator for Oracle Commerce for midsize e-commerce retailers.

 

General and administrative expenses were $10.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $7.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $2.4 million, or 31.4%. The increase was primarily due to incremental Fifth Gear’s expenses. General and administrative expenses consisted principally of executive, accounting and administrative personnel and related expenses, including professional fees.

 

Information technology expenses were $2.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $1.8 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $1.0 million or 57.8%. The increase was primarily attributable to our Fifth Gear acquisition and personnel growth in IT infrastructure.

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $6.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $3.6 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $3.0 million or 82.7%. The increase was primarily attributable to amortization of our intangible assets and newly acquired intangible assets from our Fifth Gear acquisition.

 

Goodwill and impairment charge was $17.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to zero for the six months ended September 30, 2014. Effective September 30, 2015, we concluded that indicators of impairment were present due to sustained decline of our share price and results of our operations.

 

Interest expense, net 

 

Interest expense was $6.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 compared to expense of $1.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014, an increase of $4.7 million or 344.7%. The increase principally reflected higher average debt balances as a result of the refinancing of the credit facility.

 

Consolidated Income Tax Expense or Benefit from Continuing Operations for All Periods

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded income tax benefit from continuing operations of $674,000, compared to income tax expense from continuing operations of $119,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2015 primarily relates to the impairment of indefinite-lived goodwill for which a deferred tax liability must be recorded. The Company will continue to incur deferred tax expense in the future as tax amortization occurs. The effective income tax rate applied to continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was a postive 2.5%, compared to a negative 6.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded income tax benefit from continuing operations of $466,000, compared to income tax expense from continuing operations of $173,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2014. The effective income tax rate applied to continuing operations for the six months ended September 30, 2015 was a positive 1.7%, compared to a negative 3.4% for the six months ended September 30, 2014.

 

 
20

 

 

Deferred tax assets are evaluated by considering historical levels of income, estimates of future taxable income streams and the impact of tax planning strategies. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not, based on the weight of available evidence, we would not be able to realize all or part of our deferred tax assets. An assessment is required of all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine the amount of any required valuation allowance.

 

Market Risk

 

At September 30, 2015, we had $107.3 million of indebtedness subject to interest rate fluctuations. As such, a 100-basis point change in the current LIBOR rate would have a $1.1 million impact on our annual interest expense.

 

Seasonality and Inflation

 

Quarterly operating results are affected by the seasonality of our business. Specifically, our third quarter (October 1-December 31) typically accounts for our largest quarterly revenue figures and a substantial portion of our earnings. As a provider of services to retailers, our business is affected by the pattern of seasonality common to other suppliers of retailers, particularly during the holiday selling season. Poor economic or weather conditions during this period could negatively affect our operating results. Inflation is not expected to have a significant impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations since we can generally offset the impact of inflation through a combination of productivity gains and price increases.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash Flow Analysis

 

Operating Activities

  

Cash flows used in operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2015 were $10.8 million and were primarily impacted by the following:

 

 

Non-cash charges of $20.2 million, including goodwill and intangible impairment charge of $17.3 million, depreciation and amortization of $6.6 million, which increased due to amortization of our intangible assets and newly acquired intangible assets from our Fifth Gear acquisition, and amortization of debt issuance cost of $348,000, offset by deferred income tax of ($0.6) share-based compensation net benefit of $183,000 and decrease in fair value of liabilities of $3.7 million;

Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $4.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014. In first quarter of fiscal 2015, we received $9.9 million in net proceeds from the issuance of 3,333,333 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock and we had net payment to the revolving line of credit of $38.4 million.

Discontinued Operations

 

Net cash flows used in discontinued operations were $1.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2015 resulting from the termination of the $1.4 million note receivable due from the buyers in exchange for a full release for any seller indemnities.

 

Net cash flows provided by discontinued operations were $9.3 million for the six months ended September 30, 2014 and consisted of $9.4 million of cash flows provided by operating activities, and $32,000 of cash flows used in investing activities.

 

Capital Resources

 

Credit Facility

 

On November 21, 2014, we entered into a five-year, $100 million Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement with various lenders and Garrison Loan Agency Services, LLC acting as the agent (the “Credit Agreement”). The principal amount of the loans provided under the Credit Agreement are subject to repayment through an annual excess cash sweep and will be amortized at a rate of 2.5% annually through September 30, 2015, a rate of 3.0% annually through September 30, 2016, a rate of 3.5% annually through September 30, 2017, a rate of 5.0% annually through the remaining term of the credit facility.

 

On May 8, 2015, we entered into a Consent and Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, (i) we obtained permission to add back certain balance sheet write-offs to Adjusted EBITDA (as defined) for the calculation of financial covenants, (ii) subject to lender approval, we obtained the ability to add back certain restructuring, transaction fees and expenses and one-time charges not exceed $2.5 million to the calculation of financial covenants, (iii) the interest rate on the facility increased to LIBOR +11%, with a 1% LIBOR floor, (iv) we agreed to an amendment fee equal to 200 basis points, (v) we agreed to provide Garrison with certain additional forecasts and updates regarding our liquidity and financial condition, and (vi) we are required to maintain a minimum of $1 million of unrestricted cash at all times. The interest rate on Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility at September 30, 2015 was 12%.

 

On June 30, 2015, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement, to modify certain terms with respect to the timing of certain payments. 

 

On July 2, 2015, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to: (i) remove a financial covenant requiring that we have a minimum amount of excess liquidity; and (ii) reduce the amount of certain interest payments scheduled to be made with respect to the quarterly periods ending on September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015, with the amount of such reduction being added to the principal amount of the loans provided under the Credit Agreement.

 

On July 22, 2015, we entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement to provide up to an additional $5 million of term loans, which was subsequently funded to us. 

 

On September 17, 2015, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to delete certain non-financial covenants and to waive any defaults by us.

 

On October 6, 2015, we entered into the Seventh Amendment to provide up to an additional $3 million of term loans and $1.5 million was funded to the Company. We may request that the remaining $1.5 million to be funded at any time prior to December 23, 2015. The financial terms are generally consistent with those of the existing borrowings provided to us under the Credit Agreement.

 

On November 16, 2015, we entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which waived all covenant violations through September 30, 2015. Due to uncertainties in our ability to determine whether we will be able to meet existing loan covenants through March 31, 2016, the credit facility has been reclassified as a current liability in the our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015. Through September 30, 2015, we have made every scheduled payment of principal and interest on our Credit Agreement, as amended.

Liquidity

 

We finance our operations through cash and cash equivalents, funds generated through operations and our Term Loan. During the last twelve months, we have not had any significant changes in the terms extended to customers or provided by vendors which would have a material impact on the reported financial statements. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, our credit facility was amended to convert $4.8 million of interest to principal.

 

In April 2015, we entered into agreements with investors for a registered direct offering of 13,035,713 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase up to 9,776,784 shares of our common stock at a combined public offering price of $0.56 per share and related warrants for total gross proceeds of $7.3 million. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.56 per share.  

 

In May 2015, as described above, we amended our Credit Agreement which modified certain covenant calculations, imposed additional reporting requirements, requires us to maintain $ 1 million in available cash and cash equivalents at all times and increased the interest rate for the credit facility from LIBOR plus 7.5% to LIBOR plus 11%.

 

On October 6, 2015, we entered into the Seventh Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility to provide up to an additional $3 million of term loans and $1.5 million were funded to us. We may request that the remaining $1.5 million to be funded at any time prior to December 23, 2015. The financial terms are generally consistent with those of the existing borrowings provided to us under the credit agreement.

 

We continually monitor our actual and forecasted cash flows, our liquidity and our capital resources. We plan for potential fluctuations in accounts receivable and payment of obligations to creditors and unbudgeted business activities that may arise during the year as a result of changing business conditions or new opportunities. In addition to working capital needs for the general and administrative costs of our ongoing operations, we have cash requirements for among other things: (1) on-boarding expenditures for new clients including web site deployment and fulfillment center capacity investment; (2) equipment needs for our operations; (3) legal disputes and contingencies; and (4) asset or company acquisitions.

 

In April 2015, we announced that our Board of Directors initiated a process to explore and consider possible strategic alternatives for enhancing shareholder value. These alternatives could include, but are not limited to, a recapitalization or a sale or merger of the Company. The Board of Directors is overseeing this process and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company has been retained as financial and strategic advisor to the Company. There can be no assurance as to if or when, we will finalize a strategic transaction.

 

We expect to continue to incur operating losses for the near future and continue to consider and review all options available to us to fund our operations. Debt or equity financing may not, however, be available to us at that time due to a variety of events, including, among others, industry conditions, general economic conditions, market conditions and market perceptions of us and our industry. We also are continuing efforts to comply with the financial and non-financial covenants contained in our credit agreement, including the obligation to sell the Company by December 11, 2015.  It is uncertain at this time whether any transaction will occur, what the terms will be and how our equity will be valued.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Information with respect to disclosures about market risk is contained in the section entitled Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Market Risk in this Form 10-Q.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”), as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports, was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the date of such evaluation.

 

(b) Change in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

See Litigation and Proceedings disclosed in Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

  

Item 1A. Risk Factors 

 

Information regarding risk factors appears in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Forward-Looking Statements / Risk Factors in Part 1 — Item 2 of this Form 10-Q and in Part 1 — Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. Other than the risk factors below, there have been no other material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

We have a history of losses, and we expect to incur additional losses in the future. There can be no assurance that we will ever achieve profitability or have sufficient funds to execute our business strategy.

 

For the six months ended September, 2015 and 2014, we experienced net losses of $27.5 million and $12.3 million, respectively. We expect to continue to incur operating losses for the near future, and may not be able to support our operations or otherwise establish a return on invested capital. In addition, as of September 30, 2015, the Company had $2.0 million in available cash, with access to an additional $1.5 million under its credit facility. Given our limited access to cash, our expectation of continued operating losses, and other factors, we may not have sufficient funds to execute our business strategy, which would require us to seek additional financing. Such financing may not be available, or may be available on terms that are not acceptable to the Company, which would adversely affect our ability to continue our business operations.

 

In the event that we are unable to satisfy any of the listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market, the Company’s common stock may be delisted, which could affect our market price and liquidity.

 

On April 6, 2015, the Company received written notice from NASDAQ Stock Market LLC notifying the Company that it is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements for continued listing on The NASDAQ Global Market. As a result, the Company applied and, on October 6, 2015, received approval from NASDAQ to transfer the listing of its common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market to the NASDAQ Capital market. This transfer was effective upon the opening of business on October 8, 2015. Following the transfer of its listing, the company has been granted an additional 180-day grace period to regain compliance with the NASDAQ's $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance and qualify for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market, the minimum bid price per share of the Company’s common stock must be at least $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days during the additional 180-day grace period, which will end on April 4, 2016. If the Company fails to regain compliance during this grace period, its common stock will be subject to delisting by NASDAQ. The Company has provided written notice of its intention to cure the minimum bid price deficiency during the second grace period by carrying out a reverse stock split, if necessary.

 

The Company’s common stock is listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market. For continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market, we will be required to comply with the continued listing requirements, including the minimum market capitalization standard, minimum stockholders equity requirement, the corporate governance requirements and the minimum closing bid price requirement, among other requirements. In the event that we fail to satisfy any of the listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market, the Company Common Stock may be delisted. If we are unable to list on The NASDAQ Stock Market, it would likely be more difficult to trade in or obtain accurate quotations as to the market price of the Company’s common stock. If our securities are delisted from trading on The NASDAQ Stock Market, and we are not able to list our securities on another exchange or to have them quoted on NASDAQ, our securities could be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or on the “pink sheets.” As a result, we could face significant adverse consequences including:

 

 

a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;

 

 

a determination that the Company’s common stock is a “penny stock,” which would require brokers trading in the Company’s common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;

 

 

a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

 

 

a decreased ability to issue additional securities (including pursuant to short-form registration statements on Form S-3 or obtain additional financing in the future).

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
