GWG HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

 

(1)   Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Business – Through its wholly owned subsidiaries, GWG Holdings, Inc. owns a portfolio of life insurance contracts. As of the date of this report, our portfolio had an aggregate fair value of $431.8 million. We earn income from changes in the fair value of our portfolio and through the benefits we receive upon the mortality of insureds. We are also involved in other lines of business, including a business that collects commissions for facilitating the conversion of term life insurance contracts into universal, or permanent, life insurance, and a business that participates in the merchant cash advance industry by advancing sums to merchants and lending money to businesses that advance sums to merchants. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods included in this report are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

 

GWG Holdings, Inc. and all of its subsidiaries are incorporated and organized in Delaware. Unless the context otherwise requires or we specifically so indicate, all references in these footnotes to “we,” “us,” “our,” “our Company,” “GWG,” or the “Company” refer to GWG Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries collectively and on a consolidated basis. References to the full names of particular entities, such as “GWG Holdings, Inc.” or “GWG Holdings,” are meant to refer only to the particular entity referenced.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions, which are based on current facts, historical experience, and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. The most significant estimates with regard to these consolidated financial statements relates to (1) the determination of the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of our investments in life insurance contracts, and (2) the value of our deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – We consider cash in demand deposit accounts and temporary investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents with highly rated financial institutions. The balances in our bank accounts may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. We periodically evaluate the risk of exceeding insured levels and may transfer funds as we deem appropriate.

 

Life Insurance Contracts – ASC 325-30, Investments in Insurance Contracts (“ASC 325-30”), permits a reporting entity to account for its investments in life insurance contracts using either the investment method or the fair value method. We elected to use the fair value method to account for our life insurance contracts. Under the fair value method we recognize our initial investment at the purchase price. At each subsequent reporting period, we re-measure the investment at fair value in its entirety and recognize the change in fair value as income in the current period income net of premiums paid. We use the term “life insurance contracts” to have the same meaning as “life insurance policies.” 

 

We also recognize realized gain (revenue) from a life insurance contract upon one of the two following events: (1) our receipt of notice or verified mortality of the insured; or (2) our sale of the contract, filing of change-of-ownership forms and receipt of payment. In the case of mortality, the gain (or loss) we recognize is the difference between the contract benefits and the carrying values of the contract once we determine that collection of the contract benefits is realizable and reasonably assured. In the case of a contract sale, the gain (or loss) we recognize is the difference between the sale price and the carrying value of the contract on the date of our receipt of sale proceeds.

 

In a case where our acquisition of a contract is not complete as of a reporting date, but we have nonetheless advanced direct costs and deposits for the acquisition, those costs and deposits are recorded as “other assets” on our balance sheet until the acquisition is complete and we secured title to the contract. On June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, a total of $16,000 and $31,000, respectively, of our “other assets” comprised direct costs and deposits that we advanced for contract acquisitions. 

 

Deferred Financing and Issuance Costs – Loans advanced to us under our revolving senior credit facility, as described in Note 5, are reported net of financing costs, which are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the facility.  The Series I Secured Notes and L Bonds, as respectively described in Notes 6 and 7, are reported net of issuance costs, sales commissions and other direct expenses, which are amortized using the interest method over the term of those borrowings. The Series A Preferred Stock, as described in Note 9, is reported net of issuance costs, sales commissions (including the fair value of warrants issued) and other direct expenses, all of which were fully amortized using the interest method as of December 31, 2015. Selling and issuance costs of Redeemable Preferred Stock and MCA Preferred Stock, described in Notes 10 and 11, are netted against additional paid-in-capital.

Earnings (loss) per Share – Basic earnings (loss) per share attributable to non-redeemable interests are calculated using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated based on the potential dilutive impact of our outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, Redeemable Preferred Stock, warrants and stock options.

 

Recently Adopted Pronouncements On April 7, 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”), as part of its simplification initiative. ASU 2015-03 changes the presentation of debt issuance costs by presenting those costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. We adopted ASU 2015-03 effective January 1, 2016, as required for public reporting entities, and that adoption reduced our assets, together with a corresponding reduction to our liabilities, by approximately $2,288,000 as of December 31, 2015. There was no impact on our statements of operations in 2015. 

 

Reclassification Certain 2015 amounts have been reclassified to conform to ASU 2015-03, as described above. These reclassifications had no effect on our reported consolidated net income or loss for prior periods.

  

(2)       Restrictions on Cash

 

Under the terms of our revolving senior credit facility (discussed in Note 5), we are required to maintain collection and escrow accounts that are used to fund the acquisition of contracts, pay annual contract premiums, pay interest and other charges under the facility, and collect contract benefits. The agent for the lender authorizes the disbursements from these accounts. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was a balance of $11,161,000, and $2,342,000, respectively, in these restricted cash accounts.

 

(3)      Investment in Life Insurance Contracts

 

Life insurance contracts are valued based on unobservable inputs that are significant to their overall fair value. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are recorded as gain or loss on life insurance contracts, net of cash premiums paid on those contracts, in our consolidated statements of operations. Fair value is determined on a discounted cash flow basis that incorporates life expectancy assumptions derived from reports obtained from widely accepted life expectancy providers, and assumptions relating to cost-of-insurance (premium) rates. The discount rate we apply incorporates current information about discount rate applied by other reporting companies owning portfolios of life insurance contracts, the discount rates observed in the life insurance secondary market, market interest rates, the credit exposure to the insurance company that issued the life insurance contract and management’s estimate of the risk premium a purchaser would require to receive the future cash flows derived from our portfolio as a whole. As a result of management’s analysis, discount rates of 11.05% and 11.09% were applied to our portfolio as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Management anticipates funding the premium payments estimated above with proceeds from our revolving senior credit facility, proceeds from additional debt and equity financing, and proceeds from maturities of life insurance contracts. The proceeds of these capital sources may also be used for the purchase, financing, and maintenance of additional life insurance contracts.

(4)       Fair Value Definition and Hierarchy

 

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment, the characteristics specific to the investment and the state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Assets and liabilities with readily available and actively quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices in an orderly market, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value. ASC 820 maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the use of observable inputs whenever available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect assumptions about how market participants price an asset or liability developed based on the best available information. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

 

The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the observability of inputs as follows:

 

Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.  Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment.

 

Level 2 - Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 

The availability of observable inputs can vary by types of assets and liabilities and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, whether an instrument is established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by management in determining fair value is greatest for assets and liabilities categorized in Level 3.

 

Level 3 Valuation Process

 

The estimated fair value of our portfolio of life insurance contracts is determined on a quarterly basis by our portfolio management committee, taking into consideration changes in discount rate assumptions, estimated premium payments and life expectancy estimate assumptions, as well as any changes in economic and other relevant conditions. The discount rate incorporates current information about discount rate applied by other reporting companies owning portfolios of life insurance contracts, the discount rates observed in the life insurance secondary market, market interest rates, the credit exposure to the insurance company that issued the life insurance contract and management’s estimate of the risk premium a purchaser would require to receive the future cash flows derived from our portfolio as a whole.

 

These inputs are then used to estimate the discounted cash flows from the portfolio using the Model Actuarial Pricing System probabilistic portfolio price model, which estimates the cash flows using various mortality probabilities and scenarios. The valuation process includes a review by senior management as of each valuation date. We also engage a third-party expert to independently test the accuracy of the valuations using the inputs we provide on a quarterly basis. See Exhibit 99.1 filed herewith.

 

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending fair value of our Level 3 investments in our portfolio of life insurance contracts for the periods ended June 30, as follows:

 

   Three month ended

   Six months ended

We periodically update the independent life expectancy estimates on the insured lives in our portfolio, other than insured lives covered under small face amount contracts (i.e., under $1 million in face amount), on a continuous rotating three-year cycle.  Accordingly, we update life expectancies for approximately one-twelfth of our portfolio each quarter.

 

The following table summarizes the inputs utilized in estimating the fair value of our portfolio of life insurance contracts:

 

  

As of 

June 30,

2016

  

As of

December 31,

2015

 
Weighted-average age of insured, years   82.1    82.6 
Weighted-average life expectancy, months   81.3    79.3 
Average face amount per contract  $2,111,000   $2,386,000 
Discount rate   11.05%   11.09%

 

These assumptions are, by their nature, inherently uncertain and the effect of changes in estimates may be significant. For example, if the life expectancy estimates were increased or decreased by four and eight months on each outstanding contract, and the discount rates were increased or decreased by 1% and 2%, while all other variables were held constant, the fair value of our investment in life insurance contracts would increase or (decrease) as summarized below:

 

Change in Fair Value of the Investment in Life Insurance Contracts

 

   Change in life expectancy estimates 
   minus 8 months   minus 4 months   plus  4 months   plus  8 months 
                 
June 30, 2016  $58,540,000   $29,087,000   $(28,537,000)  $(56,562,000)
December 31, 2015  $48,339,000   $24,076,000   $(23,501,000)  $(46,482,000)

 

   Change in discount rate 
   minus 2%   minus 1%   plus 1%   plus 2% 
                 
June 30, 2016  $45,656,000   $21,871,000   $(20,155,000)  $(38,770,000)
December 31, 2015  $35,024,000   $16,786,000   $(15,485,000)  $(29,803,000)

 

Other Fair Value Considerations

 

The carrying value of receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities and low credit risk. Using the income-based valuation approach, the estimated fair value of our Series I Secured Notes payable and L Bonds, having a combined aggregate face value of $352,997,000 as of June 30, 2016, is approximately $354,557,000 based on a weighted-average market interest rate of 7.10%. The carrying value of the revolving senior credit facility reflects interest charged at the commercial paper rate plus an applicable margin. The margin represents our credit risk, and the strength of the portfolio of life insurance contracts collateralizing the debt. The overall rate reflects market, and the carrying value of the facility approximates fair value. 

Our wholly owned subsidiary GWG MCA Capital, Inc. (“GWG MCA”) participates in the merchant cash advance by directly advancing sums to merchants and lending money, on a secured basis, to companies that advance sums to merchants. Each quarter, we review the carrying value of these advances and loans, and determine if an impairment reserve is necessary. At June 30, 2016 we determined that one of our secured loans was potentially impaired. The secured loan to Nulook Capital LLC had an outstanding balance of $3,304,000 and a loan loss reserve of $400,000 at June 30, 2016. We deem fair value to be the estimated collectible value on each loan made from GWG MCA. Where we estimate the collectible amount to be less than the outstanding balance, we record a reserve for the difference.

(5)       Credit Facility – Autobahn Funding Company LLC

 

Through our subsidiaries GWG DLP Funding II, LLC (“DLP II”) and GWG DLP Funding III, LLC (“DLP III”), we are party to a $105 million revolving senior credit facility with Autobahn Funding Company LLC (“Autobahn”), providing us with a $105 million maximum borrowing amount. The facility is governed by a Credit and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”), and DZ Bank AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank (“DZ Bank”) acts as the agent for Autobahn under the Agreement. The Agreement was amended and restated for the second time on May 11, 2015, primarily to add DLP III as a party, increase the total borrowing limit from $100 million to $105 million, and extend the maturity date for borrowings under the facility to June 30, 2018.

 

Advances under the facility bear interest at a commercial paper rate of the lender at the time of the advance, or at the lender’s cost of borrowing plus 4.25%, which is 1.75% less than interest charged under the facility prior to May 11, 2015 amendment. We make interest payments on a monthly basis. The effective rate of interest was 5.48% at June 30, 2016 and 5.58% at December 31, 2015. The weighted-average effective interest rate, after excluding an unused line fee, was 5.47% and 5.37% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and 5.57% and 6.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

The amount outstanding under this facility was $82,011,000 and $65,011,000 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. GWG Holdings is a performance guarantor of the various obligations of GWG Life, LLC (“GWG Life”), as servicer, under the Agreement. Obligations under the facility are secured by our pledge of ownership in our life insurance contracts to DZ Bank through an arrangement under which Wells Fargo serves as a securities intermediary.

 

The Agreement has certain financial (as described below) and nonfinancial covenants, and we were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

  

The Company has agreed to maintain (i) a positive consolidated net income on a non-GAAP basis (as defined and calculated under the Agreement) for each complete fiscal year, (ii) a tangible net worth on a non-GAAP basis (again, as defined and calculated under the Agreement) of not less than $45 million, and (iii) maintain cash and eligible investments of $15 million or above.

 

Consolidated non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP tangible net worth as of and for the four quarters ended June 30, 2016, as calculated under the Agreement, was $30,628,000 and $128,454,000, respectively.

 

Total funds available for additional borrowings under the facility at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, were $22,989,000 and $39,989,000 respectively.

 

(6)       Series I Secured Notes

 

Series I Secured Notes (“Notes”) are legal obligations of our subsidiary GWG Life and were privately offered and sold from August 2009 through June 2011. The Notes are secured by the assets of GWG Life and are subordinate to obligations under our revolving senior credit facility (see Note 5). We are party to a Third Amended and Restated Note Issuance and Security Agreement dated November 1, 2011, as amended, under which GWG Life is obligor, GWG Holdings is guarantor, and Lord Securities Corporation serves as trustee of the GWG Life Trust (“Trust”). This agreement contains certain financial and non-financial covenants, and we were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Notes were sold with original maturity dates ranging from six months to seven years, and with fixed interest rates varying from 5.65% to 9.55% depending on the term of the Note. The Notes have renewal features under which we may elect to permit their renewal, subject to the right of bondholders to elect to receive payment at maturity. Effective September 1, 2016, we no longer anticipate renewing the Notes. 

 

Interest on the Notes is payable monthly, quarterly, annually or at maturity depending on the election of the investor. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the weighted-average interest rate of our Notes was 8.62% and 8.47%, respectively. The principal amount of Notes outstanding was $18,283,000 and $23,578,000 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The difference between the amount outstanding on the Notes and the carrying amount on our balance sheet is due to netting of unamortized deferred issuance costs. Overall, interest expense includes amortization of deferred financing and issuance costs of $82,000 and $193,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and $81,000 and $211,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. Future expected amortization of deferred financing costs is $317,000 in total over the next six years.

 

Future contractual maturities of Notes payable and future amortization of their deferred financing costs at June 30, 2016 are as follows: 

 

Years Ending December 31,  Contractual Maturities   Amortization of Deferred Financing Costs 
Six months ending December 31, 2016  $3,574,000   $14,000 
2017   8,758,000    113,000

Thereafter   915,000    59,000 
   $18,283,000   $317,000 

 

(7)       L Bonds

 

Our L Bonds are legal obligations of GWG Holdings. Obligations under the L Bonds are secured by the assets of GWG Holdings and by GWG Life, as a guarantor, and are subordinate to the obligations under our revolving senior credit facility (see Note 5). We began publicly offering and selling L Bonds in January 2012 under the name “Renewable Secured Debentures.” These debt securities were re-named “L Bonds” in January 2015. L Bonds are presently being publicly offered and sold on a continuous basis under a registration statement permitting us to sell up to $1.0 billion in principal amount of L Bonds. We are party to an indenture governing the L Bonds and dated October 19, 2011, as amended (“Indenture”), under which GWG Holdings is obligor, GWG Life is guarantor, and Bank of Utah serves as indenture trustee. The Indenture contains certain financial and non-financial covenants, and we were in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

 

L Bonds have maturity dates ranging from six months to seven years, and fixed interest rates varying from 4.25% to 9.50% depending on the term of the bond. The bonds have renewal features under which we may elect to permit their renewal, subject to the right of bondholders to elect to receive payment at maturity. Interest is payable monthly or annually depending on the election of the investor.

 

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the weighted-average interest rate of our L Bonds was 7.17% and 7.18%, respectively. The principal amount of L Bonds outstanding was $334,714,000 and $282,171,000 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The difference between the amount of outstanding L Bonds and the carrying amount on our balance sheets is due to netting of unamortized deferred issuance costs and cash receipts for new issuances in process. Amortization of deferred issuance costs was $1,721,000 and $3,289,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and $1,366,000 and $2,340,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. Future expected amortization of deferred financing costs as of June 30, 2016 is $9,960,000 in total over the next eight years.

 

Effective September 1, 2016, we will cease selling 6-month and 1-year L Bonds until further notice. In addition, effective September 1, 2016, the L Bond interest rates will change to 5.50%, 6.25%, 7.50% and 8.50% for the 2-, 3-, 5- and 7-year L Bonds, respectively.

In February 2016, GWG MCA acquired certain assets relating to our merchant cash advance business. To finance this acquisition, GWG MCA borrowed $1,760,000 from Insurance Strategies Fund, LLC, as evidenced by an unsecured promissory note dated February 16, 2016. GWG MCA paid off the promissory note in its entirety in June 2016.

  

(9)     Convertible Preferred Stock

 

From July 2011 until September 2012, we privately offered shares of Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A”) of GWG Holdings at $7.50 per share. In the offering, we sold an aggregate of 3,278,000 shares for gross consideration of $24,582,000. Holders of Series A are entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of 10% per annum, paid quarterly. Dividends on the Series A are included as interest expense in the statements of operations. Under certain circumstances described in the Certificate of Designation for the Series A, additional Series A shares may be issued in lieu of cash dividends at the rate of $7.00 per share.

 

Holders of Series A are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to the stated value of their preferred shares (i.e., $7.50 per share) plus accrued but unpaid dividends. Holders of Series A may presently convert each share of their Series A into 0.75 shares of our common stock.

 

As of June 30, 2016, we issued an aggregate of 423,000 shares of Series A in satisfaction of $2,959,000 in dividends on the Series A, and an aggregate of 693,000 shares of Series A were converted into 520,000 shares of our common stock. As of June 30, 2016, we had 2,738,000 Series A shares outstanding with respect to which we incurred aggregate issuance costs of $2,838,000, all of which is included as a component of additional paid-in capital.

  

Purchasers of Series A in our offering received three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 431,954 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $12.50 per share. The grant date fair value of these warrants was $428,000. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, none of these warrants were exercised, and the weighted-average remaining life of these warrants was 0.93 and 1.43, respectively.

 

In September 2012, we completed a public offering of our common stock and, as a result, the Series A was reclassified from temporary equity to permanent equity. We may redeem Series A shares at a price equal to 110% of their liquidation preference ($7.50 per share) at any time. As of June 30, 2016, we have redeemed an aggregate of 277,000 shares of Series A.

 

 (10)       Redeemable Preferred Stock

 

Beginning November 30, 2015, we began publicly offering up to 100,000 shares of Redeemable Preferred Stock (“RPS”) at $1,000 per share. Holders of RPS are entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of 7% per annum, paid monthly. Dividends on the RPS are included as interest expense in the statements of operations. Under certain circumstances described in the Certificate of Designation for the RPS, additional shares of RPS may be issued in lieu of cash dividends.

(unaudited)

 

The RPS ranks senior to our common stock and pari passu with our Series A, and entitles its holders to a liquidation preference equal to the stated value per share (i.e., $1,000) plus accrued but unpaid dividends. Holders of RPS may presently convert their RPS into our common stock at a conversion price equal to the volume-weighted average price of our common stock for the 20 trading days immediately prior to the date of conversion, subject to a minimum conversion price of $15.00 and in an aggregate amount limited to 15% of the stated value of RPS originally purchased by such holder from us and still held by such holder.

 

Holders of RPS may request that we redeem their RPS at a price equal to their liquidation preference, less an applicable redemption fee, if any. Nevertheless, the Certificate of Designation for RPS permits us to decline requests for redemption in certain circumstances. Subject to certain restrictions and conditions, we may also redeem shares of RPS without a redemption fee upon a holder’s death, total disability or bankruptcy. In addition, after one year from the date of original issuance, we may, at our option, call and redeem shares of RPS at a price equal to their liquidation preference.

 

As of June 30, 2016, we had sold 12,222 shares of RPS for aggregate gross consideration of $12,213,000, and incurred approximately $917,000 of selling costs related to the sale of those shares.

 

(11)    GWG MCA Capital, Inc - 9% Preferred Stock

Beginning March 31, 2016, GWG MCA began privately offering up to 2,000,000 shares of GWG MCA 9% Preferred Stock (“MCA Preferred”) at $10.00 per share. Holders of MCA Preferred are entitled to cumulative dividends at a rate of 9% per annum, paid monthly. Dividends on the MCA Preferred are included as interest expense in the statements of operations. Under certain circumstances described in the Certificate of Designation for the MCA Preferred, additional shares of MCA Preferred may be issued in lieu of cash dividends. The MCA Preferred ranks senior to the common stock of MCA (all of which common stock is held by GWG Holdings) and entitles its holders to a liquidation preference equal to the stated value per share (i.e., $10.00) plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

 

Holders of MCA Preferred may request that GWG MCA redeem their MCA Preferred at a price equal to their liquidation preference, less an applicable redemption fee, if any. Nevertheless, the Certificate of Designation for MCA Preferred permits GWG MCA to decline requests for redemption in certain circumstances. In addition, after one year from the date of original issuance, GWG MCA may, at its option, call and redeem shares of MCA Preferred at a price equal to the stated value per share. As of June 30, 2016, a total of 7,155 shares of MCA Preferred had been sold for aggregate gross consideration of $72,000 and approximately $7,000 of selling costs related to the sale of these shares were incurred.

 

(12)    Income Taxes

 

We had a current income tax liability as of $0 as of both June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The components of current and deferred income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectfully, consisted of the following:

 

   Three Months Ended   Six Months Ended 
   June 30,   June 30,   June 30,   June 30, 
   2016   2015   2016   2015 
Income tax provision (benefit):                
Current:                
Federal  $(23,000)  $(182,000)  $-   $141,000 
State  $(6,000)  $(64,000)  $-   $40,000 
Total current tax expense (benefit)   (29,000)   (246,000)   -    181,000 
Deferred:                    
Federal  $1,397,000   $(670,000)  $2,203,000   $984,000 
State  $454,000   $(261,000)  $704,000   $268,000 
Total deferred tax expense (benefit)   1,851,000    (931,000)   2,907,000    1,252,000 
Total income tax expense (benefit)   1,822,000    (1,177,000)   2,907,000    1,433,000 

 

The primary differences between the June 30, 2016 effective tax rate and the statutory federal rate are the accrual of non-deductible preferred stock dividend expense of $1,112,000, state taxes, and other non-deductible expenses. The most significant temporary differences between GAAP net income and taxable net income are the treatment of interest costs with respect to the acquisition of the life insurance contracts and revenue recognition with respect to the mark-to-market of our life insurance portfolio.

(13)    Common Stock

 

In September 2014, we consummated an initial public offering of our common stock resulting in the sale of 800,000 shares of common stock at $12.50 per share, and net proceeds of approximately $8.6 million after the payment of underwriting commissions, discounts and expense reimbursements. In connection with this offering, we listed our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker symbol “GWGH.”

 

On June 24, 2015 we issued 60,000 restricted common shares at $9.70 per share, determined by the closing market price on the date of grant, to a vendor as payment for services to be rendered over three years. The cost of these shares is amortized over a 12-month period. On March 17, 2016, we issued an additional 6,500 restricted common shares at an average price of $7.16 per share, determined by the closing market price on the date of grant, to this same vendor for additional services provided to us. On April 25, 2016, we issued 25,000 restricted shares of common stock at $6.25 per share, determined by the closing market price on the date of grant, to a vendor as a form of payment for services the vendor is providing to us, which is expensed in the current period.

 

(14)    Stock Incentive Plan

 

We adopted our GWG Holdings 2013 Stock Incentive Plan in March 2013. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors administers the plan. Incentives under the plan may be granted incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options; stock appreciation rights; stock awards; restricted stock; restricted stock units; and performance shares. Eligible participants include officers and employees of GWG Holdings and its subsidiaries, members of our Board of Directors, and consultants. 2,000,000 common shares are presently issuable under the plan.

 

Through June 30, 2016, we issued stock options for 1,110,865 shares of common stock to employees, officers, and directors under the plan. Options for 577,196 shares have vested, and the remaining options are scheduled to vest over three years. The options were issued with an exercise price between $6.35 and $10.18 for those beneficially owning more than 10% of our common stock, and between $6.00 and $10.25 for all others, which is equal to the estimated market price of the shares on the date of grant using Black-Scholes binomial option pricing model. The expected annualized volatility used in the Black-Scholes model valuation of options issued during the period was 26.6%. The annual volatility rate is based on the standard deviation of the average continuously compounded rate of return of five selected comparable companies over the previous 52 weeks. A forfeiture rate of 15% is based on historical information and expected future trend. As of June 30, 2016, stock options for 360,685 shares were forfeited and stock options for 28,001 shares were exercised.

 

Outstanding stock options:

 

   Vested   Un-vested   Total 
Balance as of December 31, 2014   314,288    685,813    1,000,101

Balance as of June 30, 2016   577,196    533,669    1,110,865 

 

Compensation expense related to un-vested options not yet recognized is $475,000. We expect to recognize this compensation expense over the next three years ($173,000 in 2016, $208,000 in 2017, $72,000 in 2018, and $22,000 in 2019).

(15)    Net Income per Common Share

 

We have outstanding Series A shares, as described in Note 9. The Series A is dilutive to our net income per common share calculation at both June 30, 2016 and 2015. We also issued warrants to purchase common stock in conjunction with the sale of Series A (see Note 9). Both those warrants and our vested stock options are anti-dilutive as of both June 30, 2016 and 2015 and have not been included in the fully diluted net loss per common share calculation. We issued Redeemable Preferred Stock (see Note 10) that is non-dilutive, as the minimum conversion price of $15 per common share is above market price.

 

(16)    Commitments

 

We are party to an office lease with U.S. Bank National Association as the landlord. The lease was originally for 11,695 square feet of office space located at 220 South Sixth Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota, began in April 2012 and had an original term expiring August 31, 2015. On September 1, 2015, we entered into an amendment to this lease that expanded the leased space to 17,687 square feet and extended the term through August 31, 2025. Under the amended lease we are obligated to pay base rent plus common area maintenance and a share of building operating costs. Rent expenses under these lease arrangements were $123,000 and $55,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $232,000 and $122,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Minimum lease payments under the amended lease are as follows:

 

Six months ending December 31, 2016  $87,000 
2017   178,000 
2018   185,000 
2019   191,000 
2020   198,000 
2021   204,000 
2022   210,000 
2023   217,000 
2024   223,000 
2025   230,000 
2026   38,000 
   $1,961,000 

  

(17)    Contingencies

 

Litigation – In the normal course of business, we are involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

(18)    Guarantee of L Bonds

 

We are publicly offering and selling L Bond under a registration statement declared effective by the SEC, as described in Note 7. Our obligations under the L Bonds are secured by substantially all the assets of GWG Holdings, a pledge of all the common stock held by our largest individual stockholders, and by a guarantee and corresponding grant of a security interest in substantially all the assets of GWG Life. As a guarantor, GWG Life has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the payment of principal and interest on the L Bonds. Substantially all of GWG’s life insurance contracts are held by DLP III and the Trust. The contracts held by DLP III are not collateral for the L Bond obligations as such contracts serve as collateral for the senior credit facility.

The consolidating financial statements are presented in lieu of separate financial statements and other related disclosures of the subsidiary guarantor and issuer because management does not believe that separate financial statements and related disclosures would be material to investors. There are currently no significant restrictions on the ability of GWG Holdings or GWG Life, the guarantor subsidiary, to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan, except as provided herein. DLP II and DLP III are borrowers under a revolving senior credit facility with Autobahn, under which DZ Bank serves as agent, as described in Note 5. The significant majority of insurance contracts we own are subject to a collateral arrangement with DZ Bank described in Notes 2 and 5. Under this arrangement, collection and escrow accounts are used to fund premiums for the insurance contracts and to pay interest and other charges under the revolving senior credit facility. DZ Bank and Autobahn must authorize all disbursements from these accounts, including any distributions to GWG Life. Distributions are limited to an amount that would result in the borrowers (i.e., DLP II, DLP III, GWG Life and GWG Holdings) realizing an annualized rate of return on mortality benefits for such assets of not more than 18%, as determined by DZ Bank. After such amount is reached, the agreement governing the senior revolving credit facility requires that excess funds be used for repayments of borrowings before any additional distributions may be made.

 

The following represents consolidating financial information as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, with respect to the financial position, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, with respect to results of operations and cash flows of GWG Holdings and its subsidiaries. The parent column presents the financial information of GWG Holdings, the primary obligor for the L Bonds. The guarantor subsidiary column presents the financial information of GWG Life, the guarantor subsidiary of the L Bonds, presenting its investment in DLP II, DLP III and the Trust under the equity method. The non-guarantor subsidiaries column presents the financial information of all non-guarantor subsidiaries, including DLP II, DLP III and the Trust.

(19)    Concentrations

 

We purchase life insurance contracts written by life insurance companies having investment grade ratings by independent rating agencies. As a result, there may be concentrations of contracts with certain life insurance companies. The following summarizes the face value of insurance contracts with specific life insurance companies exceeding 10% of the total face value held by us.

 

Life insurance company  June 30,   December 31, 
   2016   2015 
AXA Equitable   15.1%   14.0%
Transamerica   10.8%   * 
John Hancock   10.0%   12.7%

 

* percentage does not exceed 10% of the total face value.

 

The following summarizes the number of insurance contracts insuring the lives of persons living in specific states exceeding 10% of the total face value held by us:

 

State of Residence  June 30,   December 31, 
   2016   2015 
California   21.8%   25.2%
Florida   19.6%   19.2%

 

(20)    Subsequent events

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2016, one policy covering one individual matured. The life insurance contract benefit of this policy was $700,000 and we recorded realized gains of $452,000 on this policy.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2016, we have issued approximately $19,009,000 in additional principal amount of L Bonds, and 7,336 shares of RPS for gross consideration of approximately $7,336,000.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2016 , the Company has issued 500 shares of common stock to a vendor as a form of payment for services the vendor provided to the Company. Also, one of our Series A Preferred Stock holders converted 2,600 shares of preferred stock into 1,950 shares of common stock.

 

Effective September 1, 2016, we will cease selling 6-month and 1-year L Bonds until further notice. In addition, effective September 1, 2016, the L Bond interest rates will change to 5.50%, 6.25%, 7.50% and 8.50% for the 2-, 3-, 5- and 7-year L Bonds, respectively.

 

Effective September 1, 2016, we no longer anticipate renewing Series I Secured Notes.

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

 

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes and the information contained in other sections of this report. This discussion and analysis is based on the beliefs of our management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management.

 

Risk Relating to Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current expectations and projections about future events. Actual results could differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements.

 

The words “believe,” “could,” “possibly,” “probably,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seek,” “intend,” “plan” or “consider,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements.

 

Such factors include, but are not limited to: 

 

changes in the secondary market for life insurance;
our limited operating history;
the valuation of assets reflected on our financial statements;
the reliability of assumptions underlying our actuarial models;
our reliance on debt financing;
risks relating to the validity and enforceability of the life insurance contracts we purchase;
our reliance on information provided and obtained by third parties;
federal, state and FINRA regulatory matters;
competition in the secondary market of life insurance;
the relative illiquidity of life insurance contracts;
our ability to satisfy our debt obligations if we were to sell our entire portfolio of life insurance contracts;
life insurance company credit exposure;
cost-of-insurance (premium) increases on our life insurance contracts;
general economic outlook, including prevailing interest rates;
performance of our investments in life insurance contracts;
financing requirements;
risks associated with our recent entry into the merchant cash advance business;
litigation risks; and
restrictive covenants contained in borrowing agreements.

 

We caution you that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Forward-looking statements are only estimates and predictions, or statements of current intent. Actual results, outcomes or actions that we ultimately undertake, could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements due to risks, uncertainties or actual events differing from the assumptions underlying these statements.

 

JOBS Act

 

On April 5, 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act, was enacted. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933 for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This means that an “emerging growth company” can make an election to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would apply to private companies. We have elected to delay such adoption of new or revised accounting standards and, as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards at the same time as other public reporting companies that are not “emerging growth companies.” This exemption will apply for a period of five years following our first sale of common equity securities under an effective registration statement or until we no longer qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined under the JOBS Act, whichever is earlier.

Overview

 

GWG Holdings, Inc. is a specialty finance company and a leading financial purchaser of life insurance assets in the secondary market. We create opportunities for consumers owning life insurance to obtain significant value for their contracts as compared to the traditional options offered by insurance companies. We also create opportunities for investors to participate in alternative asset classes, such as life insurance, not correlated to traditional financial markets. In so doing, we enable investors to take advantage of financial opportunities dominated by banks prior to the 2008 credit crisis.

 

We seek to build a profitable and large portfolio of life insurance assets that are well diversified in terms of insurance companies and insureds. We believe that diversification is a key risk mitigation strategy to provide consistent cash flows and reliable investment returns from our portfolio of life insurance assets. To grow our portfolio and achieve the diversification we seek, we offer investors the opportunity to participate in the yield potentially generated by our portfolio of life insurance assets through a variety of financings and securities offerings. We chose to finance our business in this manner after the 2008 credit crisis, during which banks largely ceased financing alternative asset classes as a result of the regulatory response to the financial crisis. We believe we are well positioned to continue providing investors with yield participation opportunities from alternative asset classes once dominated by the banking sector. 

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our judgments, estimates, and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. We evaluate our judgments, estimates, and assumptions on a regular basis and make changes accordingly. We believe that the judgments, estimates, and assumptions involved in valuing our investments in life insurance contracts have the greatest potential impact on our consolidated financial statements and accordingly believe these to be our critical accounting estimates. Below we discuss the critical accounting contracts associated with these estimates as well as certain other critical accounting contracts.

 

Ownership of Life Insurance Contracts—Fair Value Option

 

We account for the purchase of life insurance contracts in accordance with ASC 325-30, Investments in Insurance Contracts, which requires us to use either the investment method or the fair value method. We have elected to account for all of our life insurance contracts using the fair value method.

 

The fair value of our life insurance contracts is determined as the net present value of the life insurance portfolio’s future expected cash flows (contract benefits received and required premium payments) that incorporates current life expectancy estimates and discount rate assumptions.

 

We initially record our purchase of life insurance contracts at the transaction price, which is the amount paid for the contract, inclusive of all external fees and costs associated with the acquisition. The fair value of our investment in our portfolio of insurance contracts is evaluated at the end of each subsequent reporting period. Changes in the fair value of our portfolio are based on periodic evaluations and are recorded in our consolidated and combined statement of operations as changes in fair value of life insurance contracts.

 

Fair Value Components – Medical Underwriting

 

Unobservable inputs, as discussed below, are a critical component of our estimate for the fair value of our investments in life insurance contracts. We currently use a probabilistic method of estimating and valuing the projected cash flows of our portfolio, which we believe to be the preferred and most prevalent valuation method in the industry. In this regard, the most significant assumptions we make are the life expectancy estimates of the insureds and the discount rate applied to the expected future cash flows to be derived from our portfolio.

 

The Society of Actuaries recently finalized the 2015 Valuation Basic Table (“2015 VBT”). The 2015 VBT is based on a much larger dataset of insured lives, face amount of contracts and more current information compared to the dataset underlying the 2008 Valuation Basic Table. The new 2015 VBT dataset includes 266 million contracts compared to the 2008 VBT dataset of 75 million. The experience data in the 2015 VBT dataset includes 2.55 million claims on contracts from 51 insurance carriers. Life expectancies implied by the 2015 VBT are generally longer for male and female nonsmokers between the ages of 65 and 80, while smokers and insureds of both genders over the age of 85 have significantly lower life expectancies. We adopted the 2015 VBT in our valuation process in June 2016, which increased our fair value from $425 million to $432 million as of June 30, 2016 (see Note 4 for more information about our valuation process). The contracts receiving the largest increase in value were the contracts on the oldest insured lives in our portfolio.

 

In September 2015, Equitable Life Insurance Company (“AXA”) announced pending cost-of-insurance rate increases for certain universal life contracts which were effected on March 1, 2016.  We identified 14 affected contracts in our portfolio. In April 2016, we received updated contract illustrations from AXA and calculated the change in the fair value of our portfolio resulting from the increased premiums to be a reduction of $2,395,000. This reduction was reflected in our balance sheet as of March 31, 2016. Our review of AXA’s cost-of-insurance rate increases is complete as of June 30, 2016. We are aware of pending cost of insurance increases affecting approximately 3.8% of our portfolio by face amount of benefits. We will adjust our premium schedules and resultant valuation when we have received the required information from the related carriers.

 

 28 
 

 

Fair Value Components – Required Premium Payments

 

We must pay the premiums on the life insurance contracts within our portfolio in order to collect the contract benefit. The same probabilistic model and methodologies used to generate expected cash inflows from the life insurance contract benefits over the expected life of the insured are used to estimate cash outflows due to required premium payments. Premiums paid are offset against revenue in the applicable reporting period.

 

Fair Value Components – Discount Rate

 

A discount rate is used to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows. The discount rate represents the internal rate of return we expect to earn on investments in a contract or in the portfolio as a whole at the stated fair value. The discount rate used to calculate fair value of our portfolio incorporates the guidance provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

 

The table below provides the discount rate used to estimate the fair value of our portfolio of life insurance contracts for the period ending:

 

  June 30, 2016   December 31, 2015  
  11.05%   11.09%  

 

The change in the discount rate incorporates current information about discount rates applied by other reporting companies owning portfolios of life insurance contracts, discount rates observed by us in the life insurance secondary market, market interest rates, credit exposure to the issuing insurance companies, and our estimate of the risk premium a purchaser would require to receive the future cash flows derived from our portfolio of life insurance contracts. Because we use the discount rate to arrive at the fair value of our portfolio, the rate we choose necessarily assumes an orderly and arms-length transaction (i.e., a non-distressed transaction in which neither seller nor buyer is compelled to engage in the transaction). The carrying value of contracts acquired during each quarterly reporting period are adjusted to their current fair value using the fair value discount rate applied to the entire portfolio as of that reporting date. 

 

We engaged Model Actuarial Pricing Systems (“MAPS”), to prepare a calculation of our life insurance portfolio. MAPS owns and maintains the portfolio pricing software we use. MAPS processed contract data, future premium data, life expectancy estimate data, and other actuarial information to calculate a net present value for our portfolio using the specified discount rate of 11.05%. MAPS independently calculated the net present value of our portfolio of 547 contracts to be $431.8 million and furnished us with a letter documenting its calculation. A copy of such letter is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

 

Deferred Income Taxes

 

Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. A valuation allowance is established for deferred tax assets that are not considered more likely than not to be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets depends upon having sufficient past or future taxable income in periods to which the deductible temporary differences are expected to be recovered or within any applicable carryback or carryforward periods.

 

We provided a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset related to a note receivable, which was charged-off for financial reporting purposes, because we believe that, when realized for tax purposes, it will result in a capital loss that will not be utilized because we have no expectation of generating a capital gain within the applicable carryforward period. Therefore, we do not believe that it is “more likely than not” that the deferred tax asset will be realized.

 

We also provided a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset related to a tax basis capital loss generated with respect to our settlement and subsequent disposal of an earlier investment in Athena Structured Funds PLC. As we have no expectation of generating capital gains with the applicable carryforward period, we do not believe that it is “more likely than not” that the deferred asset will be realized.

  

After assessing the realization of the net deferred tax assets, we believe that it is “more likely than not” that we will be able to realize all of our deferred tax assets other than those which are expected to result in a capital loss.

Deferred Financing and Issuance Costs

 

Financing costs incurred under the revolving senior credit facility were capitalized and are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the revolving senior credit facility. The Series I Secured Note obligations are reported net of issuance costs, sales commissions, and other direct expenses, which are amortized using the interest method over the term of each respective borrowing. The L Bonds are reported net of issuance costs, sales commissions, and other direct expenses, which are amortized using the interest method over the term of each respective borrowing. The Series A Preferred Stock, as described in Note 9, was reported net of issuance costs, sales commissions, including the fair value of warrants issued, and other direct expenses, which were amortized using the interest method as interest expense over a three-year redemption period. As of December 31, 2015, these costs have been fully amortized.  Selling and issuance costs of Redeemable Preferred Stock and MCA Preferred Stock, described in Notes 10 and 11, are netted against additional paid-in-capital.

 

Principal Revenue and Expense Items

 

We earn revenues from the following three primary sources.

 

Life Insurance Contract Benefits Realized. We recognize the difference between the face value of the contract benefits and carrying values when an insured’s mortality event occurs and determine that settlement and collection of the contract benefits is realizable and reasonably assured. Revenue from a transaction must meet both criteria in order to be recognized. We generally collect the face value of the life insurance contract benefit from the insurance company within 45 days of recognizing the revenue.

 

Change in Fair Value of Life Insurance Contracts. We value our portfolio investments for each reporting period in accordance with the fair value principles discussed herein, which includes the expected payment of premiums for future periods.

 

Sale of a Life Insurance Contract. In the event of a sale of a contract, we recognize gain or loss as the difference between the sale price and the carrying value of the contract on the date of the receipt of payment on such sale.

  

Our main components of expense are summarized below.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. We recognize and record expenses incurred in our business operations, including operations related to the purchasing and servicing of life insurance contracts. These expenses include salaries and benefits, sales, marketing, occupancy and other expenditures.

 

Interest and Dividends. We recognize and record interest expenses associated with the costs of financing our life insurance portfolio for the current period. These expenses include interest paid to our senior lender under our revolving senior credit facility, interest paid on our L Bonds and other outstanding indebtedness such as our Series I Secured Notes, and dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock and our Redeemable Preferred Stock. When we issue debt, we amortize the issuance costs associated with such indebtedness over the outstanding term of the financing, and classify it as interest expense.

The most significant temporary differences between GAAP net income and taxable net income are the treatment of interest costs with respect to the acquisition of the life insurance contracts and revenue recognition with respect to the fair value of life insurance portfolio.

 

The primary permanent difference between our effective tax rate and the statutory federal rate are the accrual of preferred stock dividend expense, state income taxes, and other non-deductible expenses. The dividends charged to interest expense were $0.6 million and $0.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $1.1 million and $1.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We finance our business through a combination of life insurance contract benefit receipts, origination fees, equity offerings, debt offerings, and a senior revolving credit facility. We have used our debt offerings and a senior revolving credit facility primarily for contract acquisition, contract servicing, and portfolio-related financing expenditures including paying principal and interest.

 

As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had approximately $47.2 million and $74.4 million, respectively, in combined available cash and available borrowing base surplus capacity under our revolving credit facility for the purpose of purchasing additional life insurance contracts, paying premiums on existing contracts, paying portfolio servicing expenses, and paying principal and interest on our outstanding financing obligations.

At June 30, 2016, the total outstanding face amount under our Series I Secured Notes outstanding was $18.3 million, less unamortized selling costs of $0.3 million, resulting in a carrying amount of $18.0 million. At December 31, 2015, the total outstanding face amount under our Series I Secured Notes outstanding was $23.6 million, less unamortized selling costs of $0.3 million, resulting in a carrying amount of $23.3 million. At June 30, 2016, the total outstanding face amount of L Bonds was $334.7 million plus $2.6 million of subscriptions in process, less unamortized selling costs of $10.0 million resulting in a carrying amount of $327.3 million. At December 31, 2015, the total outstanding face amount of L Bonds was $282.2 million plus $3.0 million of subscriptions in process, less unamortized selling costs of $8.2 million resulting in a carrying amount of $277.0 million.

 

The weighted-average interest rate of our outstanding Series I Secured Notes as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was 8.62% and 8.47%, respectively, and the weighted-average maturity at those dates was 1.45 and 1.06 years, respectively. The Series I Secured Notes have renewal features. Since we first issued our Series I Secured Notes, we experienced $162.6 million in maturities, of which $123.0 million renewed for an additional term as of June 30, 2016. This provided us with an aggregate renewal rate of approximately 76% for investments in these securities.

The L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes are secured by all of our assets, and are subordinate to our revolving senior credit facility with Autobahn/DZ Bank. The L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes are pari passu with respect to a security interest in our assets pursuant to an intercreditor agreement (see Notes 6 and 7 to our consolidated financial statements). 

 

We maintain a $105 million revolving senior credit facility with Autobahn/DZ Bank through GWG Life’s wholly owned subsidiaries DLP II and DLP III. The revolving senior credit facility is used to pay the premium expenses related to our portfolio of life insurance contracts. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had approximately $82.0 million and $65.0 million, respectively, outstanding under the revolving senior credit facility, and maintained an available borrowing base surplus of $23.0 million and $40.0 million, respectively. Effective May 11, 2015, we amended and restated our senior credit facility to reduce the interest cost and extend the term of the facility to June 2018 (see Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements). 

  

Capital expenditures have historically not been material and we do not anticipate making material capital expenditures in 2016 or beyond.

 

Corporate Financing History

 

In November 2009, our wholly owned subsidiary GWG Life offered Series I Secured Notes in a private placement to accredited investors only. This offering was closed in November 2011. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had approximately $18.3 million and $23.6 million, respectively, in principal amount of Series I Secured Notes outstanding.

 

In September 2011, we concluded a private placement offering of Series A Preferred Stock, having received an aggregate $24.6 million in subscriptions for our Series A Preferred Stock. These subscriptions consisted of $14.0 million in conversions of outstanding Series I Secured Notes and $10.6 million of new investments. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, we had approximately $20.4 million and $20.8 million of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

 

In January 2012, we began publicly offering up to $250.0 million in debt securities (initially named “Renewable Secured Debentures” and subsequently renamed “L Bonds”) that was completed January 2015.

 

In September 2014, we consummated an initial public offering of our common stock resulting in the sale of 800,000 shares of common stock at $12.50 per share and net proceeds of approximately $8.6 million after the deduction of underwriting commissions, discounts and expense reimbursements.

 

In January 2015, we began publicly offering up to $1.0 billion of L Bonds as a follow-on offering to our earlier $250.0 million public debt offering. Through June 30, 2016, the total amount of these L Bonds sold, including renewals, was $551.9 million. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, we had approximately $334.7 million and $282.2 million, respectively, in principal amount of L Bonds outstanding.

 

In October 2015, we began publicly offering up to 100,000 shares of our Redeemable Preferred Stock at a per-share price of $1,000. As of June 30, 2016 we had issued approximately $12.2 million of Redeemable Preferred Stock.

 

Effective February 4, 2016, GWG MCA began to offer for sale up to of 2,000,000 shares of 9% Preferred Stock at an offering price of $10 per share in a private placement. As of June 30, 2016, GWG MCA had issued approximately $72,000 of MCA Preferred Stock.

 

Portfolio Assets and Secured Indebtedness 

 

At June 30, 2016, the fair value of our investments in life insurance contracts of $431.8 million plus our cash balance of $17.4 million, our restricted cash balance of $11.2 million and our life insurance contract benefits receivable of $6.8 million, totaled $467.2 million, representing an excess of portfolio assets over secured indebtedness of $32.2 million. At December 31, 2015, the fair value of our investments in life insurance contracts of $356.6 million plus our cash balance of $34.4 million and our restricted cash balance of $2.3 million, totaled $393.3 million, representing an excess of portfolio assets over secured indebtedness of $22.5 million. The L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes are secured by all of our assets and are subordinate to our revolving senior credit facility with Autobahn/DZ Bank. The L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes are pari passu with respect to a security interest in our asset pursuant to an intercreditor agreement.

The following forward-looking table seeks to illustrate the impact of the sale of our portfolio of life insurance assets at various discount rates in order to satisfy our debt obligations as of June 30, 2016. In all cases, the sale of the life insurance assets owned by DLP III will be used first to satisfy all amounts owing under the revolving senior credit facility with Autobahn/DZ Bank. The net sale proceeds remaining after satisfying all obligations under the revolving senior credit facility would be applied to L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes on a pari passu basis.

 

Portfolio Discount Rate   10%   11%   12%   13%   14%  
Value of portfolio   $ 454,883,000   $ 432,872,000   $ 412,635,000   $ 393,947,000   $ 376,654,000

Impairment to Series I Secured Notes and L Bonds     No impairment     No impairment     No impairment     Impairment       Impairment   

 

The table illustrates that our ability to fully satisfy amounts owing under the L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes would likely be impaired upon the sale of all of our life insurance assets at a price equivalent to a discount rate of approximately 12.69% or higher. At December 31, 2015, the impairment occurred at a discount rate of approximately 12.58% or higher. The discount rates used to calculate the fair value of our portfolio were 11.05% and 11.09% as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

 

The table does not include any allowance for transactional fees and expenses associated with a portfolio sale (which expenses and fees could be substantial), and is provided to demonstrate how various discount rates used to value our portfolio could affect our ability to satisfy amounts owing under our debt obligations in light of our senior secured lender’s right to priority payments. You should read the above table in conjunction with the information contained in other sections of this report, including our discussion of discount rates included under the “Critical Accounting Policies — Fair Value Components – Discount Rate” caption above. This discussion and analysis is based on the beliefs of our management, as well as significant assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management.

  

Cash Flows

 

The payment of premiums and servicing costs to maintain life insurance contracts represents our most significant requirement for cash disbursement. When a contract is purchased, we are able to calculate the minimum premium payments required to maintain the contract in-force. As the insured ages, premium payments increase (see Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements). Nevertheless, the probability of actually needing to pay the premiums decreases as the probability of mortality increases. These scheduled premiums and associated probabilities are factored into our expected internal rate of return and cash-flow modeling. Beyond premiums, we incur contract servicing costs, including annual trustee, tracking costs, and debt servicing costs, including principal and interest payments, all of which are excluded from our internal rate of return calculations. Until we receive a stable amount of proceeds from the contract benefits, we intend to pay these costs from our senior credit facility, when permitted, and through the issuance of debt securities, including the L Bonds, and equity securities including our Redeemable Preferred Stock.

 

 34 
 

 

The amount of payments for anticipated premiums and servicing costs (excluding debt servicing costs) that we will be required to make over the next five years to maintain our current portfolio, assuming no mortalities, is set forth in the table below.

 

Years Ending December 31,  Premiums   Servicing   Premiums and Servicing Fees 
Six months ending December 31, 2016  $18,708,000   $656,000   $19,364,000

We believe that the portfolio cash flow results set forth above are consistent with our general investment thesis: that the life insurance contract benefits we receive will continue to increase over time in relation to the premiums we are required to pay on the remaining polices in the portfolio. Nevertheless, we expect that our portfolio cash flow results on a period-to-period basis will remain inconsistent until such time as we achieve our goal of acquiring a larger, more diversified portfolio of life insurance contracts. As our receipt of life insurance contract benefits increases, we expect to increasingly use these cash flows to begin paying down our outstanding indebtedness and purchase additional life insurance contracts. 

 

Inflation

 

Changes in inflation do not necessarily correlate with changes in interest rates. We presently do not foresee any material impact of inflation on our results of operations in the periods presented in our consolidated financial statements.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

GWG Holdings is party to an office lease with U.S. Bank National Association as the landlord. The original lease was for 11,695 square feet of office space located at 220 South Sixth Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The original lease agreement was effective April 22, 2012, amended on December 14, 2014 and expired on August 31, 2015. Effective September 1, 2015, GWG Holdings entered into a second amendment to the lease with U.S. Bank National Association (Second Amendment to Lease). The Second Amendment to Lease increases the office space area to 17,687 square feet and extends the lease expiration date by approximately ten years (see Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements).

Credit Risk

 

We review the credit risk associated with our portfolio of life insurance contracts when estimating its fair value. In evaluating the contracts’ credit risk, we consider insurance company solvency, credit risk indicators, economic conditions, ongoing credit evaluations, and company positions. We attempt to manage our credit risk related to life insurance contracts by generally purchasing life insurance contracts issued only from companies with an investment-grade credit rating by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, or A.M. Best Company. See “Portfolio Credit Risk Management” below.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Our senior credit facility is floating-rate financing. In addition, our ability to offer interest rates that attract capital (including in our continuous offering of L Bonds) is generally impacted by prevailing interest rates. Furthermore, while our other indebtedness provides us with fixed-rate financing, our debt coverage ratio is calculated in relation to our total cost of financing. Therefore, rising interest rates could materially impact our business by increasing our borrowing costs, and reducing availability under our debt financing arrangements. Furthermore, we calculate our portfolio earnings based upon the spread generated between the return on our life insurance portfolio and the cost of our financing. As a result, increases in interest rates will reduce the earnings we expect to achieve from our investments in life insurance contracts.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by management are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including other companies within our industry. This presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP. Please see the Notes to our consolidated financial statements and our financial statements contained herein.

  

We use non-GAAP financial measures for maintaining compliance with covenants contained in our borrowing agreements and for planning and forecasting purposes. The application of current GAAP standards during a period of significant growth in our business, in which period we are building a large and actuarially diverse portfolio of life insurance, results in current period operating performance that may not be reflective of our long-term earnings potential. Management believes that our non-GAAP financial measures permit investors to better focus on this long-term earnings performance without regard to the volatility in GAAP financial results that can occur during this phase of growth.

  

Therefore, in contrast to a GAAP fair valuation (mark-to-market), we seek to measure the accrual of the actuarial gain occurring within the portfolio of life insurance contracts at our expected internal rate of return based on statistical mortality probabilities for the insureds (using primarily the insured’s age, sex, health and smoking status). The expected internal rate of return tracks actuarial gain occurring within the contracts according to a mortality table as the insureds’ age increases. By comparing the actuarial gain accruing within our portfolio of life insurance contracts against our adjusted costs during the same period, we can estimate, manage and evaluate the overall financial profitability of our business without regard to mark-to-market volatility. We use this information to balance our life insurance contract purchasing and manage our capital structure, including the issuance of debt and utilization of our other sources of capital, and to monitor our compliance with borrowing covenants. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is useful for investors to understand period-over-period operating results separate and apart from fair value items that could have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on GAAP results in any particular period.

 

Our senior credit facility requires us to maintain a “positive net income” and “tangible net worth,” each of which are calculated on an adjusted non-GAAP basis using the method described above, without regard to GAAP-based fair value measures. In addition, our revolving senior credit facility requires us to maintain an “excess spread,” which is the difference between (i) the weighted average of our expected internal rate of return of our portfolio of life insurance contracts and (ii) the weighted average of our senior credit facility’s interest rate. These calculations are made using non-GAAP measures in the method described below, without regard to GAAP-based fair value measures.

 

 36 
 

 

In addition, the Indenture under which our L Bonds were and continue to be issued, and the note issuance and security agreement under which our Series I Secured Notes were issued, require us to maintain a “debt coverage ratio” designed to ensure that the expected cash flows from our portfolio of life insurance contracts is able to adequately service our total outstanding indebtedness. This ratio is calculated using non-GAAP measures in the method described below, again without regard to GAAP-based fair value measures.

 

Adjusted Non-GAAP Net Income. Our senior credit facility requires us to maintain a positive net income calculated on an adjusted non-GAAP basis. We calculate the adjusted net income by recognizing the actuarial gain accruing within our life insurance contracts at the expected internal rate of return of the contracts we own without regard to fair value. We net this actuarial gain against our adjusted costs during the same period to calculate our net income on a non-GAAP basis.

(4) We must maintain an annual positive consolidated net income, calculated on a non-GAAP basis, to maintain compliance with our revolving credit facility with Autobahn/DZ Bank.

 

Adjusted Non-GAAP Tangible Net Worth. Our revolving senior credit facility requires us to maintain a tangible net worth in excess of $45 million calculated on an adjusted non-GAAP basis. We calculate the adjusted tangible net worth by recognizing the actuarial gain accruing within our life insurance contracts at the expected internal rate of return of the contracts we own without regard to fair value. We net this actuarial gain against our adjusted costs during the same period to calculate our tangible net worth on a non-GAAP basis.

Excess Spread. Our revolving senior credit facility requires us to maintain a 2.00% “excess spread” between our weighted-average expected internal rate of return of our portfolio of life insurance contracts and the revolving senior credit facility’s interest rate. The expected internal rate of return on the portfolio is the rate of return the portfolio would earn if all future cash flows occurred over time in proportion to the likelihood of their projected occurrence.  Expected future cash flows represent the size of each potential payment (premiums and contract benefits), multiplied by the probability of that particular payment occurring.  This calculation is known as the “probabilistic expectation” and it is based on actuarial estimations of life expectancy.  For instance, a required premium payment of $10,000 might be projected for a given contract at a date five years from now.  If there is a 50% chance of survival for the next five years, then that particular expected cash-outflow is calculated at $5,000.  Similarly, if the contract benefit amount on the same contract is $1 million, then during the next five years, the probable expected cash-inflow of contract benefits will total $500,000 with the other $500,000 projected to occur over the remaining life of the insured. The rate of return generated by the net of all such future expected cash flows for the portfolio is thus the expected IRR for the portfolio.

 

A presentation of our excess spread and our total excess spread is set forth below. Management uses the “total excess spread” to gauge expected profitability of our investments, and uses the “excess spread” to monitor compliance with our borrowing.

Debt Coverage Ratio and Subordination Ratio. Our L Bond and Series I Secured Notes borrowing covenants require us to maintain a “debt coverage ratio” of less than 90%. The “debt coverage ratio” is calculated by dividing the sum of our total interest-bearing indebtedness by the sum of our cash and cash equivalents and the net present value of the life insurance portfolio. The “subordination ratio” for our L Bonds is calculated by dividing the total interest-bearing indebtedness that is senior to L Bonds and Series I Secured Notes by the sum of the company’s cash and cash equivalents and the net present value of the life insurance portfolio. The “subordination ratio” must be less than 50%. For purposes of both ratio calculations, the net present value of the life insurance portfolio is calculated using a discount rate equal to the weighted average interest rate paid on all indebtedness. As of the date of this report, the subordination ratio provisions under the Indenture have expired.

Non-GAAP Net Asset Value. The non-GAAP net asset value attempts to measure the economic value of our common equity by netting interest-bearing debt and the redemption/liquidation value of our outstanding preferred stock against the value of our portfolio of life insurance (discounted at our weighted-average interest rate paid on indebtedness) and cash, cash equivalents and life insurance contract benefits receivable, if any, at the end of the measurement period. Management believes this is a useful alternative way to view the common equity value attributable to the current gross yield spread in our portfolio of life insurance.

Non-GAAP Expected Portfolio Internal Rate of Return at Purchase. The non-GAAP expected portfolio internal rate of return (IRR) at purchase is calculated as the weighted average (by face amount of contract benefits) of the IRR expected at the time of purchase for all life insurance contracts in the portfolio. This non-GAAP measure isolates our IRR expectation at purchase and utilizes our underwriting life expectancy assumptions at the time. This measure does not change with the passage of time as compared to our non-GAAP cost basis that increases with the payment of premiums, financing costs, and the effective life expectancy which changes over time, both of which are used to calculate our expected portfolio IRR.  

 

   As of
June 30,

Life insurance portfolio contract benefits  $1,154,798,000   $945,000,000

Non-GAAP Expected Portfolio Internal Rate of Return at Purchase   15.59%   15.71%

 

We have in the past reported Non-GAAP Blended Portfolio Internal Rate of Return, which is the weighted average (by face amount of contract benefits) of the IRR attained on contracts that have matured and the IRR we expect to earn on our current portfolio. We use this non-GAAP measure to assess the reasonableness of our yield expectation of the portfolio over time. However, since reporting the Blended Internal Rate of Return we realized that when we have significant maturities within a short period of time after purchase (as we did in the three months ending June 30, 2016) the Blended Internal Rate of Return calculation’s effectiveness in characterizing long-term yield expectations of the portfolio is reduced. In addition, the value of reporting the Blended Internal Rate of Return was to illustrate that the ultimate IRR earned on the portfolio is expected to converge near the Expected Internal Rate of Return at Purchase. We expect to continue to report The Non-GAAP Expected Portfolio Internal Rate of Return at Purchase until we have a statistically significant population of maturities within the portfolio to accurately measure this expected convergence.

Additionally, we participate in a new and developing asset class, and as a result will continue to seek better and more useful metrics to measure the value and performance of our portfolio and business over time.

We track concentrations of pre-existing medical conditions among insured individuals within our portfolio based on information contained in life expectancy reports. We track these medical conditions within the following ten primary disease categories: (1) cancer, (2) cardiovascular, (3) cerebrovascular, (4) dementia, (5) diabetes, (6) multiple, (7) neurological disorders, (8) no disease, (9) other, and (10) respiratory diseases. Our primary disease categories are summary generalizations based on the ICD-9 codes we track on each insured individuals within our portfolio. ICD- 9 codes, published by the World Health Organization, are used worldwide for medical diagnoses and treatment systems, as well as morbidity and mortality statistics. Currently, the only primary disease category within our portfolio that represents a concentration of over 10% is cardiovascular, which constitutes 20.8% of the value of our portfolio.

 

Portfolio Credit Risk Management

 

We rely on the payment of life insurance contract benefit claims by life insurance companies as our most significant source of cash flow. The life insurance assets we own represent obligations of third-party life insurance companies to pay face value of the life insurance contract benefits. As a result, we manage this credit risk exposure by generally purchasing contracts issued by insurance companies with investment-grade ratings from Standard & Poor’s, and diversifying our portfolio among a number of insurance companies.

 

 41 
 

 

As of June 30, 2016, 97.6% of our life insurance contracts, by face value benefits, were issued by insurance companies that maintained an investment-grade rating (BBB- or better) by Standard & Poor’s. Our largest life insurance company credit exposures and their respective Standard & Poor’s credit rating of their respective financial strength and claims paying ability is set forth below:

The yield to maturity on bonds issued by life insurance carriers reflects, among other things, the credit risk (risk of default) of such insurance carrier.  We track the yields on certain publicly traded life insurance company bonds as this information is part of the data we consider when valuing our portfolio of life insurance contracts for our financial statements according to GAAP.  Also we believe that these yields provide investors a market-based perspective on the financial strength of the largest life insurance companies backing our portfolio.

The table above indicates the current yields to maturity (YTM) for the senior bonds of selected life insurance carriers with durations, on average, that our similar to our life insurance portfolio.  The average yield to maturity of these bonds was 3.02%, which, we believe, reflects in part the financial market’s judgement that credit risk is low with regard to these carriers’ financial obligations. It should be noted that the obligations of life insurance carriers to pay life insurance contract benefits is senior in rank to any other obligation.  This “super senior” priority is not reflected in the yield to maturity in the table and, if considered, would result in a lower yield to maturity all else being equal. As such, as long as the respective premium payments have been made, it is highly likely that the owner of the life insurance contract will collect the insurance contract benefit upon the mortality of the insured.

 

The complete detail of our portfolio of life insurance contracts, owned by our wholly owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2016, organized by the current age of the insured and the associated contract benefits, sex, estimated life expectancy, issuing insurance carrier, and the credit rating of the issuing insurance carrier, is set forth below.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is 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. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance the objectives of the control system are met.

 

As of June 30, 2016, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with management's evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the period covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only with proper authorizations; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Our management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2016 based on criteria for effective control over financial reporting set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), 2013 framework in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework.” Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of the evaluation date, we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.
