 Youngevity International, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements


Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The statements presented as of September 30, 2015 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all normal recurring and other adjustments necessary for a fair presentation, and to make the financial statements not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the current year presentations. These reclassifications had no effect on reported results of operations or stockholders’ equity.

Effective June 30, 2015 we reclassified the interest expense and the change in the derivative liability associated with our 2014 Private Placement from our direct selling segment to our commercial coffee segment within our condensed consolidated statements of operations to conform to our current period presentation. The proceeds related to the 2014 Private Placement have been primarily used to expand to commercial coffee segment. These reclassifications did not affect revenue, total costs and expenses, income (loss) from operations, or net income (loss).
 
The Company consolidates all majority owned subsidiaries, investments in entities in which we have controlling influence and variable interest entities where we have been determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Nature of Business

Youngevity International, Inc. (the “Company”), founded in 1996, develops and distributes health and nutrition related products through its global independent direct selling network, also known as multi-level marketing, and sells coffee products to commercial customers.  The Company operates in two business segments, its direct selling segment where products are offered through a global distribution network of preferred customers and distributors and its commercial coffee segment where products are sold directly to businesses. In the following text, the terms “we,” “our,” and “us” may refer, as the context requires, to the Company or collectively to the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Company operates through the following domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries: AL Global Corporation, which operates our direct selling networks, CLR Roasters, LLC (“CLR”), our commercial coffee business, Financial Destinations, Inc., FDI Management, Inc., and MoneyTrax LLC (collectively referred to as “FDI”), 2400 Boswell LLC, MK Collaborative LLC, Youngevity Global LLC and the wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries Youngevity Australia Pty. Ltd. and Youngevity NZ, Ltd., Siles Plantation Family Group S.A. located in Nicaragua, Youngevity Mexico S.A. de CV, Youngevity Israel, Ltd., Youngevity Russia, LLC, Youngevity Colombia S.A.S and Youngevity International Singapore Pte. Ltd.
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense for each reporting period.  Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, allowances for doubtful accounts, deferred taxes, and related valuation allowances, fair value of derivative liabilities, uncertain tax positions, loss contingencies, fair value of options granted under our stock based compensation plan, fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations, capital leases, asset impairments, estimates of future cash flows used to evaluate impairments, useful lives of property, equipment and intangible assets, value of contingent acquisition debt, inventory obsolescence, and sales returns.  


Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected prospectively in the period they occur.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers only its monetary liquid assets with original maturities of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and the weighted-average number of dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method. Dilutive common share equivalents are comprised of in-the-money stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock, based on the average stock price for each period using the treasury stock method. 

Since the Company incurred a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, 8,890,982 common share equivalents were not included in the weighted-average calculation since their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under such provisions, stock based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense, under the straight-line method, over the vesting period of the equity grant.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with authoritative guidance for equity based payments to non-employees. Stock options issued to non-employees are accounted for at their estimated fair value, determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of options granted to non-employees is re-measured as they vest, and the resulting increase in value, if any, is recognized as expense during the period the related services are rendered.

Factoring Agreement

The Company has a factoring agreement (“Factoring Agreement”) with Crestmark Bank (“Crestmark”) related to the Company’s accounts receivable resulting from sales of certain products within its commercial coffee segment. Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, the Company effectively sold those identified accounts receivable to Crestmark with non-credit related recourse. The Company continues to be responsible for the servicing and administration of the receivables.  
 
The Company accounts for the sale of receivables under the Factoring Agreement as secured borrowings with a pledge of the subject receivables as well as all bank deposits as collateral, in accordance with the authoritative guidance for accounting for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. The caption “Accounts receivable, due from factoring company” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets in the amount of approximately $399,000 and $827,000 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, reflects the related collateralized accounts.

The Company's outstanding liability related to the Factoring Agreement was approximately $325,000 and $538,000 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and is included in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.


Plantation Costs
 
The Company’s commercial coffee segment CLR includes the results of the Siles Plantation Family Group (“Siles”), which is a 450 acre coffee plantation and a dry-processing facility located on 26 acres both located in Matagalpa, Nicaragua. Siles is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CLR, and the results of CLR  include the depreciation and amortization of capitalized costs, development and maintenance and harvesting costs of Siles.  In accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), plantation maintenance and harvesting costs for commercially producing coffee farms are charged against earnings when sold. Deferred harvest costs accumulate throughout the year, and are expensed over the remainder of the year as the coffee is sold. The difference between actual harvest costs incurred and the amount of harvest costs recognized as expense is recorded as either an increase or decrease in deferred harvest costs, which is reported as an asset and included with prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Once the harvest is complete, the harvest cost is then recognized as the inventory value.

In April 2015, the Company completed the 2015 coffee harvest in Nicaragua and approximately $723,000 of deferred harvest costs were reclassified as inventory during the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The remaining inventory as of September 30, 2015 is $464,000.
 
Costs associated with the 2016 harvest as of September 30, 2015 total approximately $194,000 and are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets as deferred harvest costs on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when the following four criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company ships the majority of its direct selling segment products directly to the distributors via UPS or USPS and receives substantially all payments for these sales in the form of credit card transactions. The Company regularly monitors its use of credit card or merchant services to ensure that its financial risk related to credit quality and credit concentrations is actively managed. Revenue is recognized upon passage of title and risk of loss to customers when product is shipped from the fulfillment facility. The Company ships the majority of its coffee segment products via common carrier and invoices its customer for the products. Revenue is recognized when the title and risk of loss is passed to the customer under the terms of the shipping arrangement, typically, FOB shipping point.
 
Sales revenue and a reserve for estimated returns are recorded net of sales tax when product is shipped.
 
Deferred Revenues and Costs

Deferred revenues relate primarily to the Heritage Makers product line and represent the Company’s obligation for points purchased by customers that have not yet been redeemed for product. Cash received for points sold is recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue is recognized when customers redeem the points and the product is shipped. The balance deferred revenues as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, is approximately $3,528,000 and $5,075,000, respectively.
 
Deferred costs relate to prepaid commissions that are recognized in expense at the time the related revenue is recognized. The balance in deferred costs as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, is approximately $1,388,000 and $1,695,000, respectively, and is included in prepaid expenses and current assets.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
With the exception of those stated below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.
 
 
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendments in ASU 2015-14 defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in the update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the debt. Recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs were not affected by this amendment. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-15,"Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated With Line-of-Credit Arrangements-Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting" which clarified that the SEC would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. This standard does not have an impact on our financial statements. As of September 30, 2015, we early adopted this standard and recorded debt issuance costs as a debt discount.
 
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 provides guidance on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 Preparation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-05”). ASU 2014-05 requires management to assess each annual and interim period if there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern; provides principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans; requires certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of management’s plans, and requires an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter with early application permitted. The Company is evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This revenue recognition standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company 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 ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and shall be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. On July 9, 2015 the FASB approved a one year delay in the effective date with an early adoption up to the original effective date for public companies. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 2.  Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes," under the asset and liability method which includes the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this approach, deferred taxes are recorded for the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. The effects of future changes in income tax laws or rates are not anticipated.

Income taxes for the interim periods are computed using the effective tax rates estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, as adjusted for any discrete taxable events that occur during the period.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States (“U.S.”) on a federal basis and in many U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. Certain tax years remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

Note 3.  Inventory and Cost of Sales

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The Company records an inventory reserve for estimated excess and obsolete inventory based upon historical turnover, market conditions and assumptions about future demand for its products. When applicable, expiration dates of certain inventory items with a definite life are taken into consideration.


The Company analyzes its firm purchase commitments, which currently consist primarily of commitments to purchase green coffee, at each period end. When necessary, provisions are made in each reporting period if the amounts to be realized from the disposition of the inventory items are not adequately protected by firm sales contracts of such inventory items. In that situation, a loss would be recorded for the inventory cost in excess of the saleable market value. There were no such losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.     
 
Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):
 
   
As of

Note 4.  Acquisitions and Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method and allocates the total purchase price for acquired businesses to the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values. When a business combination includes the exchange of the Company’s common stock, the value of the common stock is determined using the closing market price as of the date such shares were tendered to the selling parties. The fair values assigned to tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management or third-party estimates and assumptions that utilize established valuation techniques appropriate for the Company’s industry and each acquired business. Goodwill is recorded as the excess, if any, of the aggregate fair value of consideration exchanged for an acquired business over the fair value (measured as of the acquisition date) of total net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. A liability for contingent consideration, if applicable, is recorded at fair value as of the acquisition date. In determining the fair value of such contingent consideration, management estimates the amount to be paid based on probable outcomes and expectations on financial performance of the related acquired business. The fair value of contingent consideration is reassessed quarterly, with any change in the estimated value charged to operations in the period of the change. Increases or decreases in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations can result from changes in actual or estimated revenue streams, discount periods, discount rates and probabilities that contingencies will be met.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company entered into four acquisitions, which are detailed below. The acquisitions were conducted in an effort to expand the Company’s distributor network, enhance and expand its product portfolio, and diversify its product mix.  As such, the major purpose for all of the business combinations was to increase revenue and profitability.  The acquisitions were structured as asset purchases which resulted in the recognition of certain intangible assets. 

Paws Group, LLC

Effective July 1, 2015, the Company acquired certain assets of Paws Group, LLC, (“PAWS”) a direct-sales company for pet lovers that offers an exclusive pet boutique carrying treats for dogs and cats as well as grooming and bath products.  The purchase price consisted of a maximum aggregate purchase price of $150,000. The Company agreed to pay initial cash payment of approximately $61,000, for which the Company received certain inventories, the initial cash payment was applied against and reduce the maximum aggregate purchase price.

The contingent consideration’s estimated fair value at the date of acquisition was $125,000 as determined by management using a discounted cash flow methodology. The acquisition related costs, such as legal costs and other professional fees were minimal and expensed as incurred.
 
The Company recorded a preliminary fair value of a customer relations intangible asset of $125,000 and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of ten (10) years using the straight-line method which is believed to approximate the time-line within which the economic benefit of the underlying intangible asset will be realized.


Mialisia & Co., LLC
 
On June 1, 2015, the Company acquired certain assets of Mialisia & Co., LLC, (“Mialisia”) a direct-sales jewelry company that specializes in interchangeable jewelry. As a result of this business combination, the Company’s distributors and customers have access to the unique line of Mialisia’s patent-pending “VersaStyle™” jewelry and Mialisia’s distributors and customers will gain access to products offered by the Company. The purchase price consisted of a maximum aggregate purchase price of $1,900,000. The Company agreed to pay initial cash payment of $118,988, for which the Company received certain inventories, the initial cash payment was applied against and reduce the maximum aggregate purchase price.

The Company has agreed to pay Mialisia a monthly payment equal to seven (7%) of all gross sales revenue generated by the Mialisia distributor organization in accordance with the asset purchase agreement, regardless of products being sold and pay five (5%) royalty on Mialisia product revenue until the earlier of the date that is fifteen (15) years from the closing date or such time as the Company has paid aggregate cash payment equal to $1,781,012. All payments of Mialisia distributor revenue will be applied against and reduce the maximum aggregate purchase price;  however if the aggregate gross sales revenue generated by the Mialisia distributor organization, for a twelve (12) months period following the closing date does not equal or exceed $1,900,000 then the maximum aggregate purchase price will be reduced by the difference of the $1,900,000 and the average distributor revenue for a twelve (12) month period: provided, however, that in no event will the maximum aggregate purchase price be reduced below $1,650,000.

The contingent consideration’s estimated fair value at the date of acquisition was $700,000 as determined by management using a discounted cash flow methodology. The acquisition related costs, such as legal costs and other professional fees were minimal and expensed as incurred.

The assets acquired were recorded at estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. The fair values of the acquired assets have not been finalized pending further information that may impact the valuation of certain assets or liabilities. The preliminary purchase price allocation for Mialisia is as follows (in thousands):

Note 5. Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are comprised of distributor organizations, trademarks, customer relationships and internally developed software.  The Company's acquired intangible assets, which are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value.


Intangible assets consist of the following (in thousands):

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was approximately $560,000 and $480,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Amortization expense related to intangible assets was approximately $1,578,000 and $1,439,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Trade names, which do not have legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors that limit the useful lives are considered indefinite lived assets and are not amortized but are tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. Approximately $2,267,000 in trademarks from business combinations have been identified as having indefinite lives.

Goodwill

Goodwill is recorded as the excess, if any, of the aggregate fair value of consideration exchanged for an acquired business over the fair value (measured as of the acquisition date) of total net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other”, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company conducts annual reviews for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable.

The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that goodwill is impaired. After considering the totality of events and circumstances, the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired.  If impairment is indicated, then the Company conducts the two-step impairment testing process. The first step compares the Company’s fair value to its net book value. If the fair value is less than the net book value, the second step of the test compares the implied fair value of the Company’s goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equal to that excess amount. The testing is generally performed at the “reporting unit” level. A reporting unit is the operating segment, or a business one level below that operating segment (referred to as a component) if discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management at the component level. The Company has determined that its reporting units for goodwill impairment testing are the Company’s reportable segments. As such, the Company analyzed its goodwill balances separately for the commercial coffee reporting unit and the direct selling reporting unit. The goodwill balance as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $6,323,000. There were no triggering events indicating impairment of goodwill or intangible assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.


Note 6. Debt

January 2015 Private Placement

On January 29, 2015, the Company completed its January 2015 Private Placement and entered into Note Purchase Agreements (the “Note” or “Notes”) with three accredited investors.  The Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of $5,250,000 in the offering and sold aggregate units consisting of the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $5,250,000 and 1,575,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Notes bear interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum to be paid quarterly in arrears starting March 31, 2015, with all principal and unpaid interest due at maturity on January 5, 2016 and January 28, 2016 in accordance with the respective Notes. The Company has the right to prepay the Notes at any time at a rate equal to 100% of the then outstanding principal balance and accrued interest.  The Notes rank pari passu to all other notes of the Company other than certain outstanding senior debt.  The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, CLR, has provided collateral to secure the repayment of the Notes and has pledged the Nicaragua green coffee beans acquired with the proceeds, that are to be sold under the terms of our contracts with our customers, Sourcing and Supply Agreements, the contract rights under the letter of intent and all proceeds of the foregoing (which lien is junior to CLR’s line of credit and equipment lease but senior to all of its other obligations), all subject to the terms and conditions of a security agreement among the Company, CLR and the investors. Additionally, Stephan Wallach, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has also personally guaranteed the repayment of the Notes, subject to the terms of a Guaranty Agreement executed by him with the investors. With respect to the aggregate offering, the Company used one placement agent and paid a placement fee of $157,500, in addition to the payment of certain legal expenses of the placement agent, and the Company issued to the placement agent an aggregate of 875,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share.

Issuance costs related to the Notes and the common stock were approximately $170,000 and $587,000 in cash and non-cash costs, respectively, which were recorded as deferred financing costs and are included under prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the term of the Notes.  As of September 30, 2015 the remaining balance in deferred financing costs is approximately $189,000. The quarterly amortization of the deferred financing costs is $189,000 and is recorded as interest expense.
 
The net proceeds were used primarily for the purchase of green coffee to accelerate the growth of the coffee segment green coffee business. As of September 30, 2015 the principal amount of $5,250,000 remains outstanding on the Notes.

Convertible Notes Payable
 
Note Purchase Agreement – July 2014 Private Placement

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had outstanding convertible notes payable of $1,108,000 and $396,000, net of unamortized discounts of $3,642,000 and $4,354,000, respectively that it issued in its July 2014 Private Placement Offering (the “July 2014 Private Placement”). The outstanding convertible notes payable (“Convertible Notes”) of the Company are secured by certain pledged Company assets, bear interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and paid quarterly in arrears with all principal and unpaid interest due at maturity between July 30, 2019 and September 9, 2019. As of September 30, 2015 the principal amount of $4,750,000 remains outstanding.

In connection with the issuance of these Convertible Notes, the Company issued warrants that require derivative liability classification in accordance with authoritative guidance ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The estimated fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Notes totaled $4,944,000, as of September 30, 2015 and has been recorded as a derivative liability with a corresponding debt discount that will be amortized over the term of the Convertible Notes to interest expense. We revalue the derivative liability on each balance sheet date until the securities to which the derivatives liabilities relate are exercised or expire, in accordance with the Convertible Notes (see Note 7, below.)

Additionally, upon issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company recorded the discount for the beneficial conversion feature of $1,053,000.  The debt discount associated with the beneficial conversion feature is amortized to interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes. The Company recorded approximately $712,000 of interest expense for the amortization of the debt discounts during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The quarterly amortization of the deferred financing costs is approximately $25,000 and is recorded as interest expense.

Note 7. Derivative Liability

We accounted for the warrants issued in conjunction with our July 2014 Private Placement in accordance with the accounting guidance for derivatives ASC Topic 815. The accounting guidance sets forth a two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock, which would qualify such financial instruments for a scope exception. This scope exception specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative financial instrument would not be considered as such if the contract is both (i) indexed to the entity’s own stock and (ii) classified in the stockholders’ equity section of the entity’s balance sheet. We determined the warrants related to Notes are ineligible for equity classification due to anti-dilution provisions set forth therein.

Warrants classified as derivative liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair value (see Note 8, below) at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date. Warrants were determined to have an estimated fair value per share and in aggregate value as of the respective dates as follows:

Increases or decreases in fair value of the derivative liability are included as a component of other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the respective period.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the liability for warrants decreased approximately $1,069,000 from the previous quarter. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 the liability for the warrants increased approximately $1,232,000. Changes in the fair value of the warrant valuation are primarily due to the market price of $0.33 of the Company’s stock as of September 30, 2015 compared to $0.24 as of December 31, 2014.

Various factors are considered in the pricing models we use to value the warrants, including our current stock price, the remaining life of the warrants, the volatility of our stock price, and the risk free interest rate. Future changes in these factors may have a significant impact on the computed fair value of the warrant liability. As such, we expect future changes in the fair value of the warrants to continue and may vary significantly from year to year. The warrant liability and revaluations have not had a cash impact on our working capital, liquidity or business operations.


We will continue to revalue the derivative liability on each subsequent balance sheet date until the securities to which the derivative liabilities relate are exercised or expire.
 
The estimated fair value of the warrants were computed as of September 30, 2015 and as of December 31, 2014 using a Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo option pricing model, respectively, using the following assumptions:

Note 8.   Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value measurements are performed in accordance with the guidance provided by ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset, or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or parameters are not available, valuation models are applied.
 
ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the financial statements are categorized based upon the hierarchy of levels of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
 
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supportable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, capital lease obligations and deferred revenue approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The carrying amount of the Company’s long term notes payable approximates its fair value based on interest rates available to the Company for similar debt instruments and similar remaining maturities.
 
The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration related to the Company's business combinations is recorded using significant unobservable measures and other fair value inputs and is therefore classified as a Level 3 financial instrument.
 
In connection with the 2014 Private Placement, we issued warrants to purchase shares of our common stock which are accounted for as derivative liabilities (see Note 6 and 7, above.) The estimated fair value of the warrants is recorded using significant unobservable measures and other fair value inputs and is therefore classified as a Level 3 financial instrument.
 
We used Level 3 inputs for the valuation methodology of the derivative liabilities. Our derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect estimated fair value at each period end, with any decrease or increase in the estimated fair value being recorded in other income or expense accordingly, as adjustments to the fair value of the derivative liabilities.
 

The following table details the fair value measurement within the three levels of the value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments, which includes the Level 3 liabilities (in thousands):

The fair value of the contingent acquisition liabilities are evaluated each reporting period using projected revenues, discount rates, and projected timing of revenues. Projected contingent payment amounts are discounted back to the current period using a discount rate. Projected revenues are based on the Company’s most recent internal operational budgets and long-range strategic plans. In some cases, there is no maximum amount of contingent consideration that can be earned by the sellers. Increases in projected revenues will result in higher fair value measurements. Increases in discount rates and the time to payment will result in lower fair value measurements. Increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation may result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded an increase of approximately $120,000 to the fair value of contingent acquisition liabilities.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the net adjustment to the fair value of the contingent acquisition debt was a decrease of approximately $429,000 to the fair value of contingent acquisition liabilities.

Note 9.  Stockholders’ Equity
 
The Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize the issuance of two classes of stock to be designated “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock”.

Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company had 161,135 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A Preferred") outstanding as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and accrued dividends of approximately $96,000 and $86,000, respectively. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive a cumulative dividend at a rate of 8.0% per year, payable annually either in cash or shares of the Company's Common Stock at the Company's election.  Shares of Common Stock paid as accrued dividends are valued at $0.50 per share.  Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into two shares of the Company's Common Stock. The holders of Series A Preferred are entitled to receive payments upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company before any amount is paid to the holders of Common Stock. The holders of Series A Preferred shall have no voting rights, except as required by law.  

Common Stock

The Company had 392,631,528 common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2015. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on matters brought before the shareholders.

As of September 30, 2015, warrants to purchase 29,079,559 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $0.10 to $0.50 were outstanding, exercisable and expire at various dates through August 2019, and have a weighted average remaining term of approximately 3.29 years as of September 30, 2015.

 
Warrant Modification Agreements

During the three months ended September 30, 2015 the Company entered into agreements which extend the life of 2,418,750 warrants by two years after certain conditions were met. The warrants are exercisable into the Company’s common stock.

The Company recorded a warrant modification expense, as a result of the extension of the expiration dates of approximately $253,000, which is included in general and administrative expense. The expense was calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation method and using a risk-free rate of 0.67%, stock price of $0.31, exercise prices ranging from $0.30 to $0.40, expected life of 2.0 years and stock price volatility of 67.8%.

Repurchase of Common Stock

On December 11, 2012, the Company authorized a share repurchase program to repurchase up to 15 million of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares from time to time on the open market or via private transactions through block trades.  Under this program, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company repurchased a total of 1,199,709 shares at a weighted-average cost of $0.31.  A total of 3,661,659 shares have been repurchased to-date at a weighted-average cost of $0.26. The remaining number of shares authorized for repurchase under the plan as of September 30, 2015 is 11,338,341.

Stock Options

On May 16, 2012, the Company established the 2012 Stock Option Plan (“Plan”) authorizing the granting of options for up to 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by (i) providing key people and consultants with incentives to improve stockholder value and to contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company and (ii) enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best available persons for positions of substantial responsibility. The Plan permits the granting of stock options, including non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options qualifying under Section 422 of the Code, in any combination (collectively, “Options”). At September 30, 2015, the Company had 11,469,425 shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. 
 
A summary of the Plan Options for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 is presented in the following table:

The weighted-average fair value per share of the granted options for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $0.15 and $0.16, respectively.  
 
Stock based compensation expense included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations was $161,000 and $141,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, compared to $436,000 and $388,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
 
As of September 30, 2015, there was approximately $1,568,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 4.54 years.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option grants. The use of a valuation model requires the Company to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price over the expected term of the option. The expected life is based on the contractual life of the option and expected employee exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of the grant. 


Advisory agreements

PCG Advisory Group. On September 1, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with PCG Advisory Group (“PCG”), pursuant to which PCG agreed to provide investor relations services for six (6) months in exchange for fees paid in cash of $6,000 per month and 100,000 shares of restricted common stock issued in accordance with the agreement. In connection with this agreement, the Company has accrued for the estimated per share value of issuance at $0.32 per share, the price of Company’s common stock at September 1, 2015 for a total of $32,000 due to PCG. The fair values of the shares was recorded as prepaid advisory fees and are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s balance sheet and will be amortized on a pro-rate basis over the term of the contract.
 
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded expense of approximately $5,000, in connection with amortization of the stock issuance. As of September 30, 2015, the total remaining balance of the prepaid investor relation services is approximately $27,000.
 
Shares Issued in Private Placement

On January 29, 2015, we completed our January 2015 Private Placement pursuant to which we entered into Notes Payable Agreements (see Note 6, above) and issued 2,450,000 shares of our common stock. The shares of common stock issued under the January 2015 Private Placement were offered and issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “1933 Act”). The securities may not be sold, transferred or assigned in the absence of an effective registration statement for the securities under the 1933 Act, or an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transaction, that registration in required under the 1933 Act or unless sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933 Act.

Note 10.  Segment and Geographical Information

The Company offers a wide variety of products to support a healthy lifestyle including; Nutritional Supplements, Sports and Energy Drinks, Health and Wellness, Weight Loss, Gourmet Coffee, Skincare and Cosmetics, Lifestyle Services, digital products including Scrap books and Memory books, Packaged Foods, Pharmacy Discount Cards, and Clothing and Jewelry line. The Company’s business is classified by management into two reportable segments: direct selling and commercial coffee.
 
The Company’s segments reflect the manner in which the business is managed and how the Company allocates resources and assesses performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s chief operating decision maker evaluates segment performance primarily based on revenue and segment operating income. The principal measures and factors the Company considered in determining the number of reportable segments were revenue, gross margin percentage, sales channel, customer type and competitive risks. In addition, each reporting segment has similar products and customers, similar methods of marketing and distribution and a similar regulatory environment.

The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Segment revenue excludes intercompany revenue eliminated in the consolidation. The following tables present certain financial information for each segment (in thousands):

Note 11.  Subsequent Events

October 2015 Private Placement
 
The Company is in the process of completing its third and final closing related to its October 2015 Private Placement and has entered into Note Purchase Agreements (the “Note” or “Notes”) with three (3) accredited investors.  The Company offered for sale as units up to a maximum of $10,000,000 principal amount of Notes convertible at the initial conversion price of $0.35 into 28,571,428 shares of the Company’s common stock and 13,333,334 warrants. The Company raised cash proceeds of $3,187,500 in the offering and converted $4,000,000 of debt from the January 2015 Private Placement to this offering and sold aggregate units consisting of the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $7,187,500, convertible into 20,535,714 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a conversion price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein; and Series C Warrants exercisable to purchase 9,583,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share of $0.45.
 
The Offering terminated on October 30, 2015. The Company intends to invest the net offering proceeds in its wholly owned subsidiary, CLR Roasters, LLC (“CLR”), to fund working capital for its Nicaragua plantation and for the purchase of green coffee to accelerate the growth on its newly formed green coffee division. For twelve (12) months following the Closing, the investors have the right to participate in any future equity financings by the Company up to their pro rata share of the maximum offering amount in the aggregate.
 
The Notes bear interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.  The Company has the right to prepay the Notes at any time after the one year anniversary date of the issuance of the Notes at a rate equal to 110% of the then outstanding principal balance and accrued interest.  The Notes rank senior to all debt of the Company other than certain debt owed to Wells Fargo Bank, Crestmark Bank, the investors in the Company's prior private placements, a mortgage on property, and any refinancing’s  thereof.  The Company and CLR, have provided collateral to secure the repayment of the Notes and have pledged their assets (which liens are junior to CLR’s line of credit and equipment lease and junior to the rights of note holders in the Company’s prior financings but senior to all of their other obligations), all subject to the terms and conditions of a security agreement among the Company, CLR and the investors.  Stephan Wallach, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has also personally guaranteed the repayment of the Notes, subject to the terms of a Guaranty executed by him with the investors.  In addition, Mr. Wallach has agreed not to sell, transfer or pledge the 30 million shares of the common stock that are currently pledged as collateral to a previous financing so long as his personal guaranty is in effect.
 
The Warrants contain cashless exercise provisions in the event a registration statement registering the common stock underlying the Warrants has not been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by specified dates and customary anti-dilution protection and registration rights.  The Warrants expire sixty (60) months from the date of the closing and have an initial exercise price of $0.45 per share. Each warrant is exercisable for .60 of one (1) share of Common Stock, which resulted in the issuance of Series C Warrants exercisable to purchase 9,583,333 shares of common stock.
 
Resignation of William Andreoli

On October 28, 2015, William Andreoli, President of Youngevity International, Inc. resigned. On October 30, 2015, David Briskie, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, was appointed to serve as the President of the Company. (For additional information, see Form 8-K filed by the Company on November 3, 2015).

Overview

We operate in two segments: the direct selling segment where products are offered through a global distribution network of preferred customers and distributors and the commercial coffee segment where products are sold directly to businesses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we derived approximately 88% of our revenue from our direct sales and approximately 12% of our revenue from our commercial coffee sales.
 
In the direct selling segment we sell health and wellness products on a global basis and offer a wide range of products through an international direct selling network of independent distributors. Our multiple independent selling forces sell a variety of products through friend-to-friend marketing and social networking.  
 
We also engage in the commercial sale of coffee.  We own a traditional coffee roasting business, CLR that sells roasted and unroasted coffee and produces coffee under its own Cafe La Rica brand, Josie’s Java House brand and Javalution brands. CLR produces coffee under a variety of private labels through major national sales outlets and major customers including cruise lines and office coffee service operators. During fiscal 2014 CLR acquired the Siles Plantation Family Group, a coffee plantation and dry-processing facility located in Matagalpa, Nicaragua, an ideal coffee growing region that is historically known for high quality coffee production. The dry-processing facility is approximately 26 acres and the plantation is roughly 450 acres and produces 100 percent Arabica coffee beans that are shade grown, Rainforest Alliance Certified™ and Fair Trade Certified™. The plantation, dry-processing facility and existing U.S. based coffee roaster facilities allows CLR to control the coffee production process from field to cup.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we derived approximately 93% of our revenues from sales within the United States.

Three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2014
 
Revenues
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2015, our revenue increased 9.9% to $41,326,000 as compared to $37,619,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  During the three months ended September 30, 2015, we derived approximately 90% of our revenue from our direct sales and approximately 10% of our revenue from our commercial coffee sales. The increase of 18.5% in direct selling revenue was attributed primarily to the increase in our product offerings, the increase in the number of distributors selling our product and the increase in the number of customers consuming our products as well as $3,132,000 in additional revenues derived from the Company’s 2014 and 2015 acquisitions compared to the prior period. The decrease of 32.7% in revenues in the commercial coffee segment was primarily due to a decrease in the green coffee distribution business which was negatively impacted by the lower commodity prices for green coffee and a slight decrease in the roasted coffee business. The following table summarizes our revenue in thousands by segment:

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2015, overall cost of revenues decreased approximately 2.1% to $16,293,000 as compared to $16,641,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in cost of revenues is primarily attributable to a decrease of 26.1% in commercial coffee costs primarily due to the decrease in green coffee revenues, offset by an increase of 12.4% in direct selling costs. Cost of revenues includes the cost of inventory, shipping and handling costs incurred by us in connection with shipments to customers, royalties associated with certain products, transaction banking costs and depreciation on certain assets.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2015, gross profit increased approximately 19.3% to $25,033,000 as compared to $20,978,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased to 60.6%, compared to 55.8% in the prior year. Below is a table of the gross margin percentages by segment:

Gross profit as a percentage of revenues in the direct selling segment increased by approximately 1.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2015, compared with the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to price increases on certain products that became effective as of the second quarter of the current year. The decrease in gross margin in the commercial coffee segment was primarily due to the lower revenues in green coffee business combined with lower commodity prices for green coffee and the impact of certain fixed costs at the roaster.    


Operating Expenses

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, our operating expenses increased approximately 21.5% to $23,976,000 as compared to $19,740,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Included in operating expense is distributor compensation paid to our independent distributors in the direct selling segment. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, distributor compensation increased 20.2% to $17,387,000 from $14,470,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in revenues. Distributor compensation as a percentage of direct selling revenues increased to 46.9% as compared to 46.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2014, primarily due to added incentive programs and the continuing higher level achievements by distributors.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the sales and marketing expense increased 9.6% to $2,374,000 from $2,167,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to increased compensation costs and increased distributor event costs.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the general and administrative expense increased 35.8% to $4,215,000 from $3,103,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to increases in consulting costs, employee compensation and international expansion efforts. In addition, the Company recorded an increase to the contingent acquisition liability of $120,000 during this quarter, compared to a decrease of $342,000 in the prior year. The Company also recorded $253,000 in the current quarter to recognize other stock based expense related to warrant modifications.
 
Total Other Expense

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, total other expense decreased by $951,000 to $32,000 as compared to $983,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to non-cash expense reduction of $1,069,000 as a result of the change in fair value of warrant derivative during the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the non-cash expense of $273,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The primary reason for the change in the valuation of the warrant derivative liability was due to the decrease in the market price of the Company’s stock to $0.33 as of September 30, 2015, compared to $0.38 as of June 30, 2015. This reduction was offset by increased interest expense of $391,000 related to contingent acquisition debt and the interest associated with our 2014 and 2015 Private Placement transactions. Non-cash interest components include amortization of deferred financing costs related to the Private Placements and the amortization of the debt discount associated with the 2014 Private Placement transaction convertible note payable.
 
Change in Fair Value of Warrant Derivative Liability. Various factors are considered in the pricing models we use to value the warrants, including our current stock price, the remaining life of the warrants, the volatility of our stock price, and the risk free interest rate. Future changes in these factors may have a significant impact on the computed fair value of the warrant liability. As such, we expect future changes in the fair value of the warrants to continue and may vary significantly from year to year (see Note 7, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.)
 
The warrant liability and revaluations have not had a cash impact on our working capital, liquidity or business operations.

Income Taxes 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the effective date of the change. We have recognized income tax provision of approximately $609,000, which is our estimated federal and state and foreign income calculation for the three months ended September 30, 2015.


Realization of our deferred tax asset is dependent upon future earnings in specific tax jurisdictions. It is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized in the US Federal tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance remains on the state and foreign tax attributes that are likely to expire before realization. The differences between the effective rate of 59.4% and the Federal statutory rate of 34% is due to certain permanent differences between our taxable and book income, change in state tax rates, the change in our valuation allowance account, and state income taxes (net of federal benefit).
 
Net Income

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company reported net income of $416,000 as compared to a net income of $185,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase of $231,000 was attributable to $770,000 increase in income before income taxes, offset by income tax expense increase of $539,000.  

Nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014
 
Revenues
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, our revenue increased 20.8% to $116,876,000 as compared to $96,740,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we derived approximately 88% of our revenue from our direct sales and approximately 12% of our revenue from our commercial coffee sales. The increase in direct selling revenue is attributed primarily to the increase in our product offerings, the increase in the number of distributors selling our product and the increase in the number of customers consuming our products as well as $7,677,000 in additional revenues derived from the Company’s 2014 and 2015 acquisitions compared to the prior period. The increase in revenues in the commercial coffee segment is primarily due to the addition of green coffee business in April of 2014 and additional revenues from new customers for roasted coffee during the second quarter of 2015.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cost of revenues increased approximately 16.5% to $47,752,000 as compared to $40,984,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in cost of revenues is primarily attributable to the increase in revenues discussed above. Cost of revenues includes the cost of inventory, shipping and handling costs incurred by us in connection with shipments to customers, royalties associated with certain products, transaction banking costs and depreciation on certain assets. Cost of revenue in the commercial coffee segment increased approximately 14.5%, primarily due to the addition of green coffee business.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, gross profit increased approximately 24.0% to $69,124,000 as compared to $55,756,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Below is a table of the gross margin percentages by segment:

Gross profit as a percentage of revenues in the direct selling segment increased by approximately 1.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared with the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to the price increases on certain products that became effective as of the second quarter of the current year. The decrease in gross margin in the commercial coffee segment was primarily due to lower commodity prices for green coffee and the impact of certain fixed costs at the roaster that have not yet started generating the anticipated revenues.
 
Operating Expenses

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, our operating expenses increased approximately 25.0% to $65,404,000 as compared to $52,318,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Included in operating expenses is distributor compensation, the compensation paid to our independent distributors in the direct selling segment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, distributor compensation increased 23.8% to $47,261,000 from $38,172,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in revenues. Distributor compensation as a percentage of direct selling revenues increased to 45.8% as compared to 45.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This increase was primarily due to added incentive programs and higher level achievements by distributors.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the sales and marketing expense increased 12.0% to $6,087,000 from $5,434,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to our costs related to increases in costs related to distributor events, wages related to our expansion of customer service support and international staff. 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the general and administrative expense increased 38.4% to $12,056,000 from $8,712,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 primarily due to increases in consulting, legal and accounting expenses, employee compensation and international expansion efforts. In addition, the Company recorded an increase to the contingent acquisition liability of $120,000 for the current year, compared to a decrease of $328,000 for the same period in the prior year. The Company also recorded $253,000 in the current year to recognize other stock based expense related to warrant modifications.
 
Total Other Expense

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, total other expense increased to $4,512,000 as compared to $1,866,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase was primarily due to non-cash expense of $1,232,000 as a result of the change in fair value of warrant derivative compared to the non-cash expense of $273,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The primary reason for the change in the valuation of the warrant derivative liability was due to the increase in the market price of the Company’s stock to $0.33 as of September 30, 2015, compared to $0.24 as of December 31, 2014. Total other expense also increased due to the interest expense related to contingent acquisition debt and the interest associated with our 2014 and 2015 Private Placement transactions. Non-cash interest components include amortization of deferred financing costs related to the Private Placements and the amortization of the debt discount associated with the 2014 Private Placement transaction convertible note payable.
 
Change in Fair Value of Warrant Derivative Liability. Various factors are considered in the pricing models we use to value the warrants, including our current stock price, the remaining life of the warrants, the volatility of our stock price, and the risk free interest rate. Future changes in these factors may have a significant impact on the computed fair value of the warrant liability. As such, we expect future changes in the fair value of the warrants to continue and may vary significantly from year to year (see Note 7, to the condensed consolidated financial statements.)
 
The warrant liability and revaluations have not had a cash impact on our working capital, liquidity or business operations.


Income Taxes 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the effective date of the change. As of September 30, 2015 we have recognized income tax benefit of approximately $431,000 which is our estimated federal and state and foreign income calculation for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Realization of our deferred tax asset is dependent upon future earnings in specific tax jurisdictions. It is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized in the US Federal tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance remains on the state and foreign tax attributes that are likely to expire before realization. The difference between the effective rate of 54.4% and the Federal statutory rate of 34% is due to the change in our valuation allowance account, state income taxes (net of federal benefit), change in state tax rates, and certain permanent differences between our taxable and book income.
 
Net Income (Loss)

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company reported a net loss of $361,000 as compared to a net income of $1,156,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease of $1,517,000 was attributable to $2,364,000 decrease in income before income taxes, offset by income tax benefit of $847,000.  

Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) as adjusted to remove the effect of stock based compensation expense and the change in the fair value of the warrant derivative or "Adjusted EBITDA," was $6,629,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $5,773,000 in the same period for the prior year.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period growth. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management team.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure.  We calculate adjusted EBITDA by taking net income, and adding back the expenses related to interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation expense, change in the fair value of the warrant derivative and non-cash impairment loss, as each of those elements are calculated in accordance with GAAP.  Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as a substitute for net income (loss) (as determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing our operating performance or financial position, as Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by GAAP.


A reconciliation of our adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is included in the table below (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity  
 
At September 30, 2015 we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,980,000 as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $2,997,000 as of December 31, 2014. The decrease in cash was primarily due to an increase in inventory purchases and cash used for capital expenditures. 

Cash Flows 
 
Cash used in operating activities. Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $556,000, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2,966,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Net cash used by operating activities consisted of net loss of $361,000 offset by an increase of $5,521,000 in net non-cash operating expenses, and reduced by $5,716,000 in changes in operating assets and liabilities.
 
Net non-cash operating expenses included $1,232,000 related to the change in the fair value of warrant derivative liability, $2,473,000 in depreciation and amortization, $436,000 in stock based compensation expense, $253,000 related to warrant modification expense, $639,000 related to the amortization of deferred costs associated with our Private Placements, $712,000 related to the amortization of debt discounts and $224,000 in other non-cash expenses, net.
 
Changes in operating assets and liabilities were attributable to decreases in working capital primarily related to changes in inventory of $5,738,000, prepaid expenses and other current assets, net of $668,000 (net of non-cash deferred costs), deferred revenues of $1,547,000 and $278,000 related to income tax receivable. Increases in working capital primarily related to changes in accounts receivable, net of $131,000 of which $428,000 related to a decrease in our factoring receivable and offset by an increase of $297,000 from trade related receivables, accounts payable of $907,000, accrued distributor compensation of $192,000 and accrued expenses and other liabilities of $1,285,000.

Cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $2,339,000, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $4,220,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Net cash used in investing activities consisted of $32,000 in initial cash payments net of intangibles acquired related to our business acquisitions and $2,307,000 in purchases of property and equipment and leasehold improvements.
 
Cash provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,992,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $2,421,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the net proceeds related to the January 2015 Private Placement of approximately $5,080,000, proceeds from exercise of stock options and warrants of $259,000, offset by $214,000 in payments for the CLR factoring agreement, $163,000 in payments to reduce notes payable, $2,545,000 in payments related to contingent acquisition debt, $43,000 in payments to reduce capital lease obligations and $382,000 in payments related to the Company’s share repurchase program.

Future Liquidity Needs
 
We believe that current cash balances, future cash provided by operations, our accounts receivable factoring agreement and line of credit will be sufficient to cover our operating and capital needs in the ordinary course of business for at least the next 12 months. Though our operations are currently meeting our working capital requirements, on November 9, 2015 we completed a private placement offering (the “October 2015 Private Placement”), pursuant to which we had offered for sale as units up to a maximum of $10,000,000 principal amount of Notes convertible at the initial conversion price of $0.35 into 28,571,428 shares of the Company’s common stock and 13,333,334 warrants. We raised cash proceeds of $3,187,500 in the October 2015 Private Placement and converted $4,000,000 of debt from our January 2015 Private Placement to the October 2015 Private Placement and sold aggregate units consisting of the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $7,187,500, convertible into 20,535,714 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a conversion price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein; and Series C Warrants exercisable to purchase 9,583,333 shares of common stock from the Company at a price per share of $0.45. The Notes bear interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. (See Subsequent Events, Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.) We intend to invest the net offering proceeds in its wholly owned subsidiary, CLR Roasters, LLC (“CLR”), to fund working capital for its Nicaragua plantation and for the purchase of green coffee to accelerate the growth on its green coffee division.
 
On October 10, 2014, we entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank National Association “Wells Fargo”, our principal banking partner. The line of credit provides us with a $2.5 million revolving credit line. The outstanding principal balance of the line of credit shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum determined by the bank to be two and three-quarter percent (2.75%) above daily one month LIBOR as in effect from time to time. The bank charges an unused commitment fee equal to five tenths of a percent (.5%) per annum on the daily unused amount of the Line of Credit and is payable quarterly. The Company intends to utilize the revolver to finance working capital. This revolving line of credit expired effective October 13, 2015. We are currently in the process of renewing the line of credit with Wells Fargo. As of October 13, 2015, there were no amounts currently drawn against this facility.
 
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Information with respect to our critical accounting policies which we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

New Accounting Pronouncements

With the exception of those stated below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in the Annual Report that are of material significance, or have potential material significance, to the Company.
 
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendments in ASU 2015-14 defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in the update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the debt. Recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs were not affected by this amendment. In August 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-15,"Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated With Line-of-Credit Arrangements-Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting" which clarified that the SEC would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. This standard does not have an impact on our financial statements. As of September 30, 2015, we early adopted this standard and recorded debt issuance costs as a debt discount.
 
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 provides guidance on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 Preparation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-05”). ASU 2014-05 requires management to assess each annual and interim period if there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern; provides principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans; requires certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of management’s plans, and requires an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter with early application permitted. The Company is evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This revenue recognition standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company 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 ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and shall be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. On July 9, 2015 the FASB approved a one year delay in the effective date with an early adoption up to the original effective date for public companies. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements.
 
 
 
The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.


(a)  
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2015, the end of the quarterly fiscal period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
(b)  
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our third quarter of fiscal year 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


From time to time, the Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company defends itself vigorously against any such claims. Although the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management expects that any losses that are probable or reasonably possible of being incurred as a result of these matters, which are in excess of amounts already accrued in its condensed consolidated balance sheets would not be material to the financial statements as a whole.


Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2015, and all of the information contained in our public filings before deciding whether to purchase our common stock. There have been no material revisions to the “Risk Factors” as set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2015.
