(1)NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

ZAGG Inc and its subsidiaries (“ZAGG”we,” “us,” “our,” “ZAGG,” or the “Company”) design, produce,is an innovation leader in mobile tech accessories for smartphones and distribute professional and premiumtablets. For over 10 years, ZAGG has developed creative product solutions such as InvisibleShield®that enhance and protect mobile devices for consumers around the world.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The Company suggests that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 20142015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

On March 3, 2016 the Company acquired mophie inc. ("mophie") for gross up-front cash consideration of $100,000. The results of operations of mopie are included in the Company's results of operations beginning on March 3, 2016. Based on the manner in which the Company manages, evaluates, and internally reports its operations, the Company determined that mophie will be reported as a separate operating segment. See Notes 2 and 14 for additional details on the acquisition and the Company's segments.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ZAGG Inc and its wholly owned subsidiaries ZAGG International Distribution Limited (“ZAGG International”); Patriot Corporation; ZAGG Intellectual Property Holding Co, Inc. (“ZAGG IP”); ZAGG Retail, Inc.Inc; mophie inc.; mophie LLC, mophie Technology Development Co., Ltd; mophie Netherlands Cooperatie U.A.; and iFrogz, Inc.mophie Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Significant Accounting Policies

 

There have been no significant changes to theThe Company’s significant accounting policies asare described in Note 1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.2015.In addition to these policies, the Company has adopted a significant accounting policy relating to business combinations and accounting for goodwill as a result of the acquisition of mophie, as described below. Also, in connection with the acquisition of mophie, the Company changed its operating segments, as described in Note 14.

 

Business Combinations – We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over these fair values is recorded as goodwill. We engaged an independent third-party valuation firm to assist us in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. The significant purchased classes of intangible assets recorded by us include tradenames, technology, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, and backlog. The fair values assigned to the identified intangible assets are discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include but are not limited to: future expected cash flows related to each individual asset, market position of the tradenames, as well as assumptions about cash flow savings from the tradenames, determination of useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.

GoodwillAt least annually and when events and circumstances warrant an evaluation, we perform our impairment assessment of goodwill. This assessment initially permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it would not need to perform the two-step impairment test for the reporting unit.

However, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the two step analysis is performed, which incorporates a fair-value based approach. We determine the fair value of our reporting unit based on discounted cash flows and market approach analyses as considered necessary, and consider factors such as the economy, reduced expectations for future cash flows coupled with a decline in the market price of our stock and market capitalization for a sustained period as indicators for potential goodwill impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its estimated fair value, a second step must be performed to measure the amount of the goodwill impairment loss, if any. The second step compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination, with the carrying amount of such goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU includes a five-step process by which entities will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The standardASU also will require enhanced disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted to approve a one year deferral of the effective date of this ASU. This deferral was issued by the FASB in ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Deferral of the Effective Date”. As a result of ASU No. 2015-14 the Company expects that it will apply the new revenue standard to annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period”. This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. The ASU states that a reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”,to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting. The ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” This ASU describes how an entity should assess its ability to meet obligations and sets disclosure requirements for how this information should be disclosed in the financial statements. The standard provides accounting guidance that will be used with existing auditing standards. The ASU applies to all entities for the first annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, “Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”, to improve targeted areas of the consolidation guidance and reduce the number of consolidation models. The new consolidation standard changes the way reporting enterprises evaluate whether (a) they should consolidate limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) fees paid to a decision maker or service provider are variable interests in a variable interest entity (VIE), and (c) variable interests in a VIE held by related parties of the reporting enterprise require the reporting enterprise to consolidate the VIE. It also eliminates the VIE consolidation model based on majority exposure to variability that applied to certain investment companies and similar entities. This ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permitted. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest – Imputation“Interest-Imputation of Interest:Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” Previously, debt issuance costs were recorded as assets on the balance sheet. This ASUupdate requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented inon the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of thatthe debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This ASU is not expected to have a significant impact onCompany adopted this standard during the Company’s consolidated financial statements.first quarter of 2016.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This ASU provides guidance to entities that measure inventory using a method other than last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. For entities using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost, the measurement principle for their inventory changes from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. Current U.S. GAAP requires, at each financial statement date, that entities measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The measurement of market is commonly the current replacement cost. However, entities also need to consider net realizable value and net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin in their measurement. For entities using a method other than LIFO or the retail inventory method, the ASU replaces market with net realizable value. This ASU requires prospective adoption for inventory measurement for fiscal yearsannual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those years for public business entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In AugustSeptember 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, “Interest – Imputation2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments,” which eliminates the requirement for an acquirer to retrospectively adjust the financial statements for measurement-period adjustments that occur in periods after a business combination is consummated. The ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted this standard during the first quarter 2016.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) – PresentationDeferred Taxes,” which requires entities with a classified balance sheet to present all deferred tax assets and Subsequent Measurementliabilities as noncurrent. The ASU is effective for public business entities for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued its new lease accounting standard, which requires lessees to recognize most leases, including operating leases, on-balance sheet via a right of Debt Issuance Costs Associateduse asset and lease liability. Lessees are allowed to account for short-term leases (i.e., leases with Line-of-Credit Arrangements.” Thisa term of 12 months or less) off-balance sheet, consistent with current operating lease accounting. A number of other significant changes to lease accounting have been effected through the issuance of this standard. The new standard is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU adds SEC paragraphs to Subtopic 835-30will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-11, which simplified accounting for share-based payments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period provided that the entire ASU is adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

(2)ACQUISITION OF MOPHIE INC.

On February 2, 2016, ZAGG and ZM Acquisition, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with mophie, a California corporation, the principal shareholders of mophie named therein (the “Principal Shareholders”), and Daniel Huang as representative of the mophie shareholders, warrant holders, and option holders, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into mophie, with mophie continuing as the SEC Staff Announcementsurviving corporation (the “Merger”). On March 3, 2016 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed the Merger. The combination of ZAGG and mophie creates a diversified market leader in multiple mobile accessories categories.

The Company purchased mophie for total gross up-front consideration of $100,000 in cash, subject to a working capital adjustment. The Merger Agreement includes an earn-out provision whereby additional consideration would be paid based on whether mophie’s 12-month Adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Merger Agreement) from April 1, 2016 to March 31, 2017 (“Earnout Period”) exceeds $20,000. For every dollar in Adjusted EBITDA generated during the Earnout Period that exceeds $20,000, the Company will pay additional consideration at a five times multiple (“Earnout Consideration”). Any Earnout Consideration will initially be paid by the issuance of up to $5,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock valued as of February 2, 2016 (the day prior to the public announcement of the definitive agreement on February 3, 2016).

In addition to the Earnout Consideration, the Company will also remit cash to the Principal Shareholders once the following contingent items related to pre-acquisition operations have been resolved:

Federal and state tax refunds expected to be due to the Company related to 2012 and 2013 tax years.
Customs and duties refunds for pre-closing overpayments of customs and duties amounts to governmental agencies.
Proceeds from the sale of real property located in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

8

In addition, $2,000 of the cash consideration paid to the Principal Shareholders was placed in an escrow account to cover any potential tax, legal, or other contingencies that could potentially arise relating to pre-acquisition events for which ZAGG is indemnified. If charges exceed $2,000, ZAGG may recover these amounts through a $10,000 insurance policy related to representations and warranties. Currently, the Company is not aware of any such contingencies or potential indemnity claims.

The following summarizes the components of the purchase consideration:

Cash consideration $100,000 
Preliminary working capital adjustment  (23,478)
Preliminary contingent payments  2,027 
Preliminary fair value of earnout consideration  1,565 
Total purchase price $80,114 

The total purchase price of $80,114 has been preliminarily allocated to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective preliminary fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The allocation of goodwill to reportable segments has not yet been completed.

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimates of the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition Date. The preliminary estimates of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on estimates and assumptions and are subject to revisions, which may result in adjustments to the preliminary values presented below, when management’s estimates are finalized:

Cash and cash equivalents $1,779 
Trade receivables (gross contractual receivables of $13,569)  13,483 
Inventories  37,290 
Prepaid expenses and other assets  1,073 
Income tax receivable  11,548 
Deferred tax assets  24,925 
Property and equipment  10,196 
Land held for sale  325 
Amortizable identifiable intangible assets  45,463 
Goodwill  14,092 
Current liabilities  (80,060)
Total $80,114 

Due to the fact that the acquisition of mophie occurred in the current interim period and in light of the magnitude of the transaction, the Company’s fair value estimates for the purchase price, assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are preliminary and may change during the allowable measurement period. The allowable measurement period continues to the date the Company obtains and analyzes all relevant information that existed as of the date of the acquisition necessary to determine the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, but in no case is to exceed more than one year from the date of acquisition (March 3, 2017). The Company is analyzing information to verify assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

As part of the acquisition of mophie, the Company incurred legal, accounting, and other due diligence fees that were expensed when incurred. Total fees incurred related to the acquisition of mophie for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $2,017, which are included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

Classes of acquired intangible assets include tradenames, technology, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, and backlog. The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets was determined using various valuation methods, including the income and market approaches. For assets valued under the income approach, the estimate of the present value of expected future cash flows for each identifiable asset was based on discount rates which incorporate a risk premium to take into account the risks inherent in those expected cash flows. The expected cash flows were estimated using available historical data adjusted based on the Company’s historical experience and the expectations of market participants. The market approach was utilized to determine appropriate royalty rates applied to the valuation of the trademarks and technology. The preliminary amounts assigned to each class of intangible asset and the related preliminary weighted average amortization periods are as follows:

  Intangible asset class  Weighted-average amortization period 
    
Tradenames $18,693   10.0 years 
Patents and technology  14,137   7.6 years 
Customer relationships  10,170   5.0 years 
Non-compete agreements  2,164   5.0 years 
Backlog  299   0.3 years 
Total $45,463     

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the mophie purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The Company believes that the primary factors supporting the amount of goodwill recognized are the significant growth opportunities and expected synergies of the combined entity.

Results of Operations

The results of operations of mophie are included in the Company’s results of operations beginning on March 3, 2016. From March 3, 2016 through March 31, 2016, mophie generated net sales of $7,636 and had a net loss of $4,115.

Pro forma Results from Operations

The following unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 give pro forma effect as if the acquisition and borrowings used to finance the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015, after giving effect to certain adjustments including the amortization of intangible assets, interest expense, tax adjustments, specific transaction related expenses incurred prior to the execution date, and assumes the purchase price was allocated to the assets purchased and liabilities assumed based on their fair market values at the June 18,date of purchase.

The fair value of the restricted stock units granted is based on the closing share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock units vest annually on a straight-line basis over a nine-month (annual board of directors’ grant) to three-year vesting term, depending on the terms of the individual grant.

If the Company achieves the target amount of net sales, Adjusted EBTIDA, and earnings per share for the applicable performance period, all of the shares of restricted stock granted will vest under the terms of the respective grants. If the Company achieves less than 100% of the targets for the applicable performance period, but above a predetermined floor, the number of shares of restricted stock vested will decrease proportionately. However, if the Company’s performance for the applicable performance period is below the predetermined floor, all of the shares of restricted stock granted will be forfeited.

For the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2015, warrants and restricted stock and stock optionsunits to purchase 443442 shares of common stockwere not considered in calculating diluted earnings per share because the warrant or stock option exercise prices or the total expected proceeds under the treasury stock method for the warrants, restricted stock units, or stock options was greater than the average market price of common shares during the period and, therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive. Also excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were 452 shares of restricted stock granted that were not yet vested as the performance conditions were not met (see further discussion in Note 5).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, warrants, restricted stock, and stock options to purchase 328 shares of common stock,were not considered in calculating diluted earnings per share because the warrant or stock option exercise prices or the total expected proceeds under the treasury stock method for the warrants, restricted stock, or stock options was greater than the average market price of common shares during the period and, therefore, the effect would be anti-dilutive. Also excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, were 452 shares of restricted stock granted that were not yet vested as the performance conditions were not met (see further discussion in Note 5).

As the Company was in a net loss position for three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, all warrants, restricted stock, and stock optionswere not considered in calculating diluted earnings per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the number of antidilutive equity awards totaled 870 and 836, respectively.

In June 2008, Lorence Harmer became a member of the Company’s board of directors and in December 2009, was appointed as the chairman of the audit committee. Mr. Harmer introduced the Company to a consumer electronics product, which became known as the ZAGGbox. The Company subsequently entered into negotiations with Teleportall, LLC (“Teleportall”), the owner of the technology used in the ZAGGbox, regarding production and distribution of the ZAGGbox. In 2009 and 2010 the Company entered into various agreements with Teleportal,Teleportall, including agreements appointing the Company as the exclusive distributor for the ZAGGbox in North America, issued purchase orders for ZAGGbox units in the aggregate amount of $3,500 and advanced to Teleportall a total of $3,900 against the total purchase price for the units ordered by the Company. Additionally, in May 2010, the Company entered into an agreement with Harmer Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), an affiliate of Mr. Harmer, under which Holdings agreed to repurchase unsold ZAGGboxes under certain circumstances.

In late 2010 the Company determined that the ZAGGbox product would not be ready to market and sell during the 2010 Christmas season and the Company commenced discussions to restructure its agreements with Teleportall. As a result of the foregoing, the Company entered into an agreement with Teleportall, Mr. Harmer and several entities owned or controlled by Mr. Harmer (the “Harmer Agreement”), dated March 23, 2011, but subject to further negotiations and ratification through April 5, 2011. Pursuant to the Harmer Agreement, the parties agreed to terminate the prior agreements and convey all ZAGG rights in the ZAGGbox to Teleportall on the following terms:

 

Mr. Harmer, Teleportall, and certain of their affiliates delivered a promissory note (the “Note”) dated March 23, 2011, to the Company in the original principal amount of $4,126 which accrued interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 4% per annum (adjusted quarterly) payable as follows: (i) interest only payments (a) on September 23, 2011, and (b) thereafter on or before the last day of each calendar quarter, (ii) 50% of the net profits of each ZAGGbox sale by Teleportall and its affiliates, and (iii) the unpaid balance of principal and interest due in full on March 23, 2013. The Note was secured by certain real property, interests in entities that own real property and restricted and free-trading securities.

 

In exchange for a license fee to the Company, Teleportall and the Company entered into a License Agreement on under which the Company licensed to Teleportall the use of certain ZAGG names and trademarks to sell and distribute the ZAGGbox product.

 

In exchange for commissions to be paid by the Company, Teleportall and ZAGG entered into a non-exclusive, two year Commission Agreement on March 23, 2011, under which Teleportall could make introductions of many ZAGG products in all countries where ZAGG did not then have exclusive dealing agreements in respect of the marketing, distribution or sale of its products.

 

No revenue has been recognized from Teleportall.

 

The Note was originally accounted for under the cost recovery method and was originally included in the consolidated balance sheet at $3,900 which was the value of the ZAGGbox inventory advances. The original face value of the Note of $4,126 was for reimbursement of the inventory advances and other costs associated with the ZAGGbox and approximated fair value at March 23, 2011, as the variable interest rate on the Note approximated market rates.

Pedersen, II (ZAGG’s former CEO), Brandon T. O’Brien (ZAGG’s former CFO) and KPMG LLP (ZAGG’s independent registered public accounting firm). KPMG LLP and Messrs.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments.The carrying value of the debt balances approximate fair value because the variable interest rates reflect current market rates and terms.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company measures at fair value certain financial and non-financial assets by using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

 

Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs); and

 

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting unit to develop its own assumptions.

 

At September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2014,2015, the following assets and liabilities were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the level of inputs shown:

Harmer, a former director of ZAGG and two of his affiliates, Harmer Holdings, LLC, and Teleportall, LLC (the “Harmer Parties”), filed a lawsuit against the Company, Robert G. Pedersen II, Brandon T. O’Brien, and KPMG LLP. The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants defamed Mr. Harmer, breached the Settlement Agreement and other agreements between the plaintiffs and the Company (alleging claims for breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith, and fair dealing), and interfered with other rights of the plaintiffs. The defendants denied all of the material allegations made by the plaintiffs. KPMG LLP was dismissed from the lawsuit in January 2012. In October 2012, the Company filed a counterclaim and third-party complaint against Harmer, Holdings, Teleportall and third-party Global Industrial Services Limited asserting claims for breach of contract, deficiency, indemnity and attorneys’ fees, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, quasi contract, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit and declaratory judgment. In June 2013, the court dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims for defamation, negligence, tortious interference, and interference with prospective economic relations against the Company and all claims against Messrs. Pedersen and O’Brien. In November 2013, the court entered default judgment on the Company’s third-party complaint against Global Industrial Services Limited. On May 21, 2015, the Courtcourt granted summary judgment in the Company’s favor against the Harmer Parties, and thereafter entered a final judgment against the Harmer Parties in the amount of $4,735 with interest at 12% per annum until paid in full, and dismissed all of the Harmer Parties’ remaining claims against the Company with prejudice. On October 2, 2015, the Courtcourt entered an order adding the amount of $1,396 to the judgment for the attorney fees and costs incurred by the Company in the litigation. The Harmer Parties have filed a notice of appeal declaring their intention to seek review of the final judgment in the Utah appellate courts. The Harmer Parties have also filed a motion in the trial court asking it to reconsider and set aside the final judgment, which the Company will vigorously oppose. The Company is moving forward with collection efforts pursuant to the final judgment. The Company intends to vigorously defend against any appeals or other attempts to challenge the judgment in its favor. This matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

Other Litigation

 

The Company is not a party to any other material litigation or claims at this time. While the Company currently believes that the amount of any ultimate potential loss for known matters would not be material to the Company’s financial condition, the outcome of these actions is inherently difficult to predict. In the event of an adverse outcome, the ultimate potential loss could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations in a particular period.

 

The Company establishes reserves when a particular contingency is probable and estimable. Other than those discussed above, the Company has not accrued for any loss at September 30, 2015March 31, 2016 in the condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company does not consider a loss to be probable or estimable. The Company faces contingencies that are reasonably possible to occur; however, the reasonably possible exposure to losses cannot currently be estimated.

The decrease in working capital is primarily related to the current liability classification of the line of credit under US GAAP, although the maturity date is not until March 3, 2021. Despite the maturity date in 2021, US GAAP requires that the line of credit be classified as a current liability due the existence of a lockbox arrangement with the bank whereby cash collections are automatically swept against the line of credit.

 

Based on the current level of operations, we believe that cash generated from operations, cash on hand, and available borrowings under existing credit arrangements will be adequate to fund expected capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next 12 months.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In addition, our international operations are subject to risks related to differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, and other regulations and restrictions.

 

To date we have not utilized derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. We do not expect to employ these or other strategies to hedge market risk in the foreseeable future. Cash is investedWe invest our cash in money market funds, which are subject to minimal credit and market risk. We believe that the market risks associated with these financial instruments are immaterial, although there can be no guarantee that these market risks will be immaterial to us.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

AsThe acquisition of mophie on March 3, 2016, represents a resultmaterial change in internal control over financial reporting since management’s last assessment of the material weaknessour internal control over financial reporting which existedwas completed as of December 31, 2014 related2015. The mophie business utilizes separate information and accounting systems and processes. We intend to exclude the ineffective operationoperations of mophie from the reconciliationscope of in-transit inventory and the review thereof, as discussed in our Annual ReportSarbanes-Oxley Section 404 report on Form 10-Kinternal controls over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2014, management has2016. We are in the process of implementing our internal control structure over the acquired mophie operations and expect that this effort will be completed in 2016. We intend to extend our Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance program to include the followingmophie business beginning in 2017.

Other than the acquisition of mophie, there were no significant changes to its internal controls that have materially affected ourin the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

We have conducted inventory reconciliation training with those responsible for performing and reviewing inventory reconciliations. Process improvements developed as part of these trainings were used in the reconciliations performed for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
We have renegotiated contract terms with the Company’s key inventory suppliers to change the inventory delivery terms from free on board (“FOB”) shipping point to FOB destination, thereby significantly reducing in-transit inventory. The amendments to the supplier contracts were completed during the second quarter of 2015, and the first purchase orders under these terms commenced during the second quarter of 2015.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

 

AnOur disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Nevertheless, an internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflectreflects the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must beare considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple errorserror or mistakes.mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controlscontrol may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.deteriorate.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report,Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20142015 (the “2014“2015 Form 10-K”), which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The following information updates certain of our risk factors and should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in the 2014 Form 10-K. These risk factors should be read carefully in connection with evaluating our business and in connection with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Any of the risks described in the 20142015 Form 10-K could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made. These are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.

 

If we are unable to effectively manage our growth, our operating results and financial condition will be adversely affected.

We intend to grow our business by expanding our sales and product development organizations. Any growth in or expansion of our business is likely to place a strain on our management and administrative resources, infrastructure, and information systems. As with other growing businesses, we expect that we will need to refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes, and our access to financing sources. We also will need to hire, train, supervise, and manage new employees. These processes are time consuming and expensive, will increase management responsibilities and will divert management attention. We provide no assurance that we will be able to:
