(Unaudited)
(in thousands, except per share amounts)
The decline in retail demand over the second half of March 2020 negatively impacted our sales and profitability for the first quarter of 2020. We also expect an adverse impact on the Company’s sales and profitability in future periods. The duration of these trends and the magnitude of such impacts cannot be precisely estimated at this time, as they are affected by a number of factors (some of which are outside management’s control), including those presented in Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report.
We are mitigating some of the negative impacts to our operating results by taking significant actions, including postponing non-essential capital expenditures, reducing operating costs, modulating production in line with demand, initiating workforce reductions and furloughs, and substantially reducing discretionary spending. We will continue to adjust mitigation measures as needed related to health and safety. Those measures might include temporarily suspending manufacturing or retail operations, modifying workspaces, continuing social distancing policies, implementing new personal protective equipment or health screening policies at our facilities, or such other industry best practices needed to continue maintain a healthy and safe environment for our employees amidst the pandemic.
As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our operations evolves, we will continue to assess the impact on the Company and respond accordingly. Sustained adverse impacts to the Company, certain suppliers, dealers or customers may also affect the Company’s future valuation of certain assets and therefore may increase the likelihood of an impairment charge, write-off, or reserve associated with such assets, including goodwill, indefinite and finite-lived intangible assets, property and equipment, inventories, accounts receivable, tax assets, and other assets.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant estimates relateEstimates are used to purchase price allocation,record the allowance for credit losses and doubtful accounts, liabilities for product warranties, excess or obsolete inventory, valuation of deferred tax assets, and valuation of goodwill, long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Significant Accounting Policies
Lease Accounting Pronouncements not yet adopted
OnIn March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to facilitate the market transition from existing reference rates, such as the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which is being phased out in 2021, to alternate reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The standard was effective upon issuance and allowed application to contract changes as early as January 1, 2019,2020. The provisions have impact as contract modifications and other changes occur while LIBOR is phased out. The Company is in the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842,Leases,process of evaluating the optional relief guidance provided within this ASU. Management will continue its assessment and electedmonitor regulatory developments during the prospective method which was applied to all leases in effectLIBOR transition period.
NOTE 2. INVENTORIES
Inventories, as of January 1, 2019. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1,March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be presented in accordance with ASC Topic 840,Leases.were as follows:
Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. Leases are now classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Classification is based upon the underlying asset’s existence, nature and timing of ownership transfer in the related lease. Leases previously defined as operating leases record lease expense based upon the related ROU asset amortization and lease liability interest expense using the interest method over the life of the lease. Leases previously defined as capital leases are now classified as a finance lease with no material changes to the accounting methodology.

ASC 842 provides new guidance that resulted in recording the present value of ROU assets and related lease liabilities for the Company’s outstanding operating leases over the remaining lease term at January 1, 2019 totaling $1,516.
8 |
Lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement of an arrangement where it is determined at inception that a lease exists. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using our incremental borrowing rate. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised.
Variable lease payments are generally expensed as incurred and include certain nonlease components, such as common area maintenance and other services provided by the lessor, and other charges such as utilities, insurance and property taxes included in the lease. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, and the expense for these short-term leases and for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Nonlease components are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability present value computations. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Certain of the leases contain extension options of one to five years. At January 1, 2019, the Company is uncertain as to whether the extension options will be executed. Accordingly, no extension options were considered in the present value computations of the ROU assets or related lease liabilities.
The Company elected the package of practical expedients in transition for leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019, whereby these contracts were not reassessed or reclassified from their previous assessments as of December 31, 2018. We also elected certain other practical expedients in transition, including not reassessing existing land easements as lease contracts. The Company has also elected to not record the ROU assets and related liabilities for outstanding leases as of January 1, 2019 with a remaining term of 12 months or less. In these cases, the Company recognizes a lease payment as an expense on a straight-line basis. See Note 14. Leases for the financial position impact and additional disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncements adopted during 2019
On January 1, 2019, the Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04,Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment as permitted. The standard simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by requiring a goodwill impairment to be measured using a single step impairment model, whereby the impairment equals the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the specified reporting units in their entirety. This eliminates the second step of the current impairment model that requires companies to first estimate the fair value of all assets in a reporting unit and measure impairments based on those fair values and a residual measurement approach. It also specifies that any loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This ASU was adopted on a prospective basis with no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2017-12,Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The ASU was adopted on a prospective basis. This standard enables entities to better portray the economics of their risk management activities in the financial statements and enhances the transparency and understandability of hedge results through improved disclosures.The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2018-02,Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Incomewhich allows for a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Act. However, because the amendments only relate to the reclassification of the income tax effects of the Tax Act, the underlying guidance that requires that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. Adoption of this ASU did not impact the beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2019.The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The Credit Agreement also permits the Borrowers, subjectincludes other customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants relating to certain requirements, to arrange with lenders for an aggregate of up to $50,000 of additional revolving and/or term loan commitments (both of which are currently uncommitted), for potential aggregate revolving and term loan commitments under the Credit Agreement of up to $150,000. The Credit Agreement matures on May 3, 2024.
The Borrowers may elect to have the revolving and term loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at an alternate base rate or a Eurodollar rate plus an applicable rate. The applicable rate for these borrowings will range from 0.50% to 1.25% per annum, in the case of alternate base rate borrowings, and 1.50% to 2.25% per annum, in the case of Eurodollar borrowings. The applicable rate was initially 0.875% per annum, in the case of alternate base rate borrowings, and 1.875% per annum, in the case of Eurodollar borrowings, however, it may be adjusted from time to time based upon the level of the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio.

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s primary exchange rate risk management objective is to mitigate the uncertainty of anticipated cash flows attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company primarily focuses on mitigating changes in cash flows resulting from sales denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company manages this risk primarily by using currency forward and option contracts. If the anticipated transactions are deemed probable, the resulting relationships are formally designated as cash flow hedges. The Company accounts for these contracts as cash flow hedges and tests effectiveness by determining whether changes in the expected cash flow of the derivative offset, within a range, changes in the expected cash flow of the hedged item.
At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company’s derivative contracts had remaining maturities of approximately one year or less. The counterparty to these transactions had both long-term and short-term investment grade credit ratings. The maximum net exposure of the Company’s credit risk to the counterparty is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized loss of all contracts with that counterparty. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there was no such exposure to the counterparty. The Company’s exposure of counterparty credit risk is limited to the aggregate unrealized gain of $885$1,361 on all contracts at September 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The Company’s derivative counterparty has strong credit ratings and as a result, the Company does not require collateral to facilitate transactions.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, under a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are
observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are based on prices or valuation techniques that are unobservable.

NOTE 9. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings by the total of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period, plus the effect of dilutive outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock grants. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive to the loss from continuing operations.
The following table is a reconciliation of basic and diluted shares of common stock outstanding used in the calculation of earnings per share:

NOTE 10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN
Under the Company’s current 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), the Company’s Board of Directors has flexibility to determine the type and amount of awards to be granted to eligible participants, who must be employees, directors, officers or consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries. The 2015 Plan allows for grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, and restricted units. The aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be granted through awards under the 2015 Plan to any employee in any calendar year may not exceed 500 shares. The 2015 Plan will continue in effect until December 2025 unless terminated sooner.
During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company issued stock options for an aggregate of 188125 shares under the 2015 Plan to directors and employees of the Company. Of the 188The 125 options issued 38 options vest in four equal consecutive quarterly tranches from the date of grant. 150 vest in three equal tranches on June 5,December 31, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2022.2023.
For computing the fair value of the stock-based awards, the fair value of each option grant has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
Options Granted During the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019
Options Granted During the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 | ||
Number of options | ||
Option vesting period | ||
Grant price | $ | |
Dividend yield | ||
Expected volatility (a) | ||
Risk-free interest rate | ||
Expected life (years) (b) | ||
Weighted average fair value | $ |
(a) | Expected volatility is based upon the Company’s historical volatility. |
(b) | The expected term was determined based upon the underlying terms of the awards and the category and employment history of employee award recipient. |
Using these assumptions, theThe grant date fair value of the stock options granted during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 was $952,$543, which will be recognized over the vesting period of the options.
Market Condition Restricted Shares Granted:
On January 7, 2019, the Company issued and granted to an employee a restricted stock award of 350 restricted shares under the 2015 Plan, that will vest as follows: (A) the stock award will vest and become nonforfeitable if, on or before January 7, 2024, the closing price of the Company’s common stock shall have equaled or exceeded $15.00 per share for twenty consecutive trading days (such 20th day being the “Price Trigger Date”); and (B) once the Price Trigger Date occurs, (i) 117 shares of the Company’s common stock shall vest on each of the first and second anniversary of the Price Trigger Date; and (ii) 116 shares of the Company’s common stock shall vest on the third anniversary of the Price Trigger Date. For computing the fair value of the 350 restricted shares with a market condition, the fair value of each restricted stock award grant has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Monte-Carlo pricing model with the assumptions below.
On January 7, 2019, the Company issued and granted to an employee a restricted stock award of 150 restricted shares under the 2015 Plan, that will vest as follows: (A) the stock award will vest and become nonforfeitable if, on or before January 7, 2024, the closing price of the Company’s common stock shall have equaled or exceeded $15.00 per share for twenty consecutive trading days (such 20th day being the Price Trigger Date); and (B) once the Price Trigger Date occurs, the shares shall equally vest on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversary of the Price Trigger Date. For computing the fair value of the 150 restricted shares with a market condition, the fair value of each restricted stock award grant has been estimated as of the date of grant using the Monte-Carlo pricing model with the assumptions below.

Using these assumptions, the fair value of the market condition restricted stock awards granted on January 7, 2019 was approximately $3,962.
The total non-cash stock compensation expense related to restricted stock, stock options and stock awards recorded by the Company for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019 was $613 and 2018 was $678 and $912, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $2,246 and $2,067,$785, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, the majority of stock-based compensation costs were classified as selling, general and administrative expenses.
As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, there were 1,6851,325 unvested stock options and unrecognized compensation cost of $4,587$4,228 related to unvested stock options, as well as 600 unvested restricted stock awards and unrecognized compensation costs of $3,136$2,724 related to unvested restricted stock awards.
NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that the disposition of any of the legal disputes the Company or its subsidiaries is currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. There is a reasonable possibility of loss from contingencies in excess of the amounts accrued by the Company in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets; however, the actual amounts of such possible losses cannot currently be reasonably estimated by the Company at this time. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company could have a different effect.

NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”). As a result of the Tax Act, theThe Company’s U.S. federal corporatestatutory tax rate was reduced toof 21%, effective January 1, 2018. In addition, the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) was repealed and taxpayers with AMT credit carryovers in excess of their regular tax liability may have credits refunded over multiple years from 2018 to 2022.
The Company’sits foreign operations that are considered to be permanently reinvested have statutory tax rates of approximately 25%.
The difference between the Company’s estimated effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, was primarily attributed to a discrete benefit related to stock compensation. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the difference between the Company’s estimated effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate was primarily attributed to the release of an additional portion of the Company’s valuation allowance based on the Company’s forecasted pre-tax earnings for the year.
As of December 31, 2018,2019, the Company’s gross deferred tax asset was $47,922.$43,945. The Company had recorded a valuation allowance of $42,122,$28,632, resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $5,800,$15,313, before deferred tax liabilities of $8,719.$8,633. The Company has provided a valuation allowance against a portion of the deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, because the ultimate realization of those assets did not meet the more likely than not criteria. The majority of the Company’s deferred tax assets consist of net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards for federal tax purposes. If a change in control were to occur, these could be limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Code”), as amended.
CLARUS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
(Unaudited)
(in thousands, except per share amounts)
In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and net operating loss and credit carryforwards expire. The estimates and judgments associated with the Company’s valuation allowance on deferred tax assets are considered critical due to the amount of deferred tax assets recorded by the Company on its consolidated balance sheet and the judgment required in determining the Company’s future taxable income. The need for a valuation allowance is reassessed at each interim reporting period.
As of December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”)NOL and research and experimentation credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes of $141,067$131,621 and $3,791,$4,250, respectively. The Company believes its NOL will offset some of its future U.S. federal income taxes. The majority of the Company’s pre-tax income is currently earned and expected to be earned in the U.S., or taxed in the U.S. as Subpart F income and will be offset with the NOL.
NOLs available to offset taxable income, subject to compliance with Section 382 of the Code, begin to expire based upon the following schedule:

· | Our Sierra segment, which includes Sierra, is an iconic American manufacturer of a wide range of high-performance bullets and ammunition for both rifles and pistols. These bullets and ammunition are used for precision target shooting, hunting and military and law enforcement purposes. |
The Company recognizes revenue when a contract exists with a customer that specifies the goods and services to be provided at an agreed upon sales price and when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the goods or service to the customer. The performance obligation is considered complete when products are shipped or delivered to the customer depending on the terms of the contract. Sales are made on normal and customary short-term credit terms or upon delivery at point of sale transactions. As noted above, the Company has a wide variety of technical outdoor equipment and lifestyle products focused on the climb, ski, mountain and sport product categories that are sold to a variety of customers in multiple end markets. While there are multiple products sold, the terms and nature of revenue recognition policy is similar for all segments. The sport product category represents the Sierra segment revenue.

On November 6, 2018,Impact of COVID-19
The global outbreak of COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization and a national emergency by the U.S. government in March 2020 and has negatively affected the U.S. and global economy, disrupted global supply chains, and resulted in significant travel and transport restrictions and disruption of financial markets. The impact of this pandemic has created significant uncertainty in the global economy and has affected our business, employees, retail and distribution partners, suppliers, and customers.
The decline in retail demand over the second half of March 2020 negatively impacted our sales and profitability for the first quarter of 2020. We also expect an adverse impact on the Company’s sales and profitability in future periods. The duration of these trends and the magnitude of such impacts cannot be precisely estimated at this time, as they are affected by a number of factors (some of which are outside management’s control), including those presented in Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report. We generally expect the second quarter of 2020 to be the most significantly impacted with sequential improvement throughout the remainder of the fiscal year.
We are mitigating some of the negative impacts to our operating results by taking significant actions, including postponing non-essential capital expenditures, reducing operating costs, modulating production in line with demand, initiating workforce reductions and furloughs, and substantially reducing discretionary spending. We will continue to adjust mitigation measures as needed related to health and safety. Those measures might include temporarily suspending manufacturing or retail operations, modifying workspaces, continuing social distancing policies, implementing new personal protective equipment or health screening policies at our facilities, or such other industry best practices needed to continue maintain a healthy and safe environment for our employees amidst the pandemic.
These countermeasures are expected to partially mitigate the impacts of COVID-19 on our full year 2020 financial results. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our operations evolves, we will continue to assess the impact on the Company acquiredand respond accordingly.
Sustained adverse impacts to the Company, certain suppliers, dealers or customers may also affect the Company’s future valuation of certain assets and therefore may increase the likelihood of SKINourishment, Inc.an impairment charge, write-off, or reserve associated with such assets, including goodwill, indefinite and finite-lived intangible assets, property and equipment, inventories, accounts receivable, tax assets, and other assets.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Management’s discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based on the condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We continually evaluate our estimates and assumptions including those related to purchase price allocation, excess or obsolete inventory, valuation of deferred tax assets, and valuation of goodwill, long-lived assets and other intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
See “Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 1 to the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion related to changes to our critical accounting policies including leases from the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842. There have been no other significant changes to our critical accounting policies as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The decrease in other, net, was primarily attributable to an increase in remeasurement losses recognized on the Company’s foreign denominated accounts receivable and accounts payable. This decrease was partially offset by gains on mark-to-market adjustments on non-hedged foreign currency contracts. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the income was offset by losses related to recognition of cumulative translation adjustments due to the substantial liquidation of a foreign entity.

Income Taxes
Consolidated income tax benefit increased $211, or 58.8%, to $570 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a consolidated income tax benefit of $359 during the same period in 2018. The tax expense recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes a discrete benefit associated with a release of a tax reserve of $63, a release of certain valuation allowances of $1,300, and a discrete benefit associated with stock compensation windfall for $590.
Our effective income tax rate was 9.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to 10.6% for the same period in 2018. The primary reasons for the effective income tax rate changes are due to differing levels of income before income tax, release of a partial valuation allowance of the deferred tax assets due to current year taxable income, and discrete charges recorded during the respective periods. Factors that could cause our annual effective tax rate to differ materially from our quarterly effective tax rates include changes in the geographic mix of taxable income and discrete events that may occur.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Condensed Consolidated NineThree Months Ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 Compared to Condensed Consolidated NineThree Months Ended September 30, 2018March 31, 2019
The following presents a discussion of cash flows for the condensed consolidated nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with the condensed consolidated nine months ended September 30, 2018. Our primary ongoing funding requirements are for working capital, expansion of our operations (both organically and through acquisitions) and general corporate needs, as well as investing activities associated with the expansion into new product categories. We plan to fund these activities through a combination of our future operating cash flows and revolving credit facility.facility which had approximately $27,900 available to borrow at March 31, 2020. We believe that our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months will be adequately covered by cash provided by operations and our existing revolving credit facility. AtHowever, as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and our operations evolves, we will continue to assess our liquidity needs. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the U.S. and global economies, disrupted global supply chains, and resulted in significant travel and transport restrictions and disruption of financial markets. An extended period of global supply chain and economic disruption could materially affect our business, results of operations, ability to meet debt covenants, access to sources of liquidity and financial condition. Given the economic uncertainty as a result of the pandemic, we have taken actions to improve our current liquidity position, including drawing on the credit facility, suspending share repurchases and cash dividends, postponing nonessential capital expenditures, and reducing operating costs. Further, subsequent to the balance sheet date, we borrowed $20,000 under the term loan portion of the Credit Agreement to increase our overall liquidity. The proceeds borrowed on the term loan were used to pay down amounts outstanding on our revolving loan commitment. The Company is required to repay the term loan through quarterly payments of $1,000 each beginning with September 30, 2019,2020, and any remaining obligations will be repaid in full on the maturity date of the Credit Agreement of May 3, 2024.
At March 31, 2020, we had total cash of $1,851,$12,796, compared to a cash balance of $2,486$1,703 at December 31, 2018,2019, which was substantially controlled by the Company’s U.S. entities. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company had $1,606$2,971 of the $1,851$12,796 in cash held by foreign entities, of which $385$763 is considered permanently reinvested.

Net Operating Loss
As of December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) and research and experimentation credit for U.S. federal income tax purposes of $141,067$131,621 and $3,791,$4,250, respectively. The Company believes its U.S. Federal NOL will offset some of its future U.S. Federal income taxes. The majority of the Company’s pre-tax income is currently earned and expected to be earned in the U.S., or taxed in the U.S. as Subpart F income and will be offset with the NOL. None$131,621 of the NOLnet operating losses available to offset taxable income willdoes not expire until 20212022 or later, subject to compliance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
As of December 31, 2018,2019, the Company’s gross deferred tax asset was $47,922.$43,945. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $42,122,$28,632, resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $5,800,$15,313, before deferred tax liabilities of $8,719.$8,633. The Company has provided a valuation allowance against a portion of the net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, because the ultimate realization of those assets does not meet the more likely than not criteria. The majority of the Company’s deferred tax assets consist of net operating loss carryforwards for federal tax purposes. If a change in control were to occur, these could be limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Code”), as amended.
Credit Agreement
On May 3, 2019, the Company together with certain of its direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (the “Borrowers”) and the other loan parties party thereto entered into a Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, for borrowings of up to $60,000 under a revolving credit facility (including up to $5,000 for letters of credit), and borrowings of up to $40,000 under a term loan facility that is available to be drawn until May 3, 2020. The Credit Agreement also permits the Borrowers, subject to certain requirements, to arrange with lenders for an aggregate of up to $50,000 of additional revolving and/or term loan commitments (both of which are currently uncommitted), for potential aggregate revolving and term loan commitments under the Credit Agreement of up to $150,000. The Credit Agreement matures on May 3, 2024.
The Borrowers may elect to have the revolving and term loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at an alternate base rate or a Eurodollar rate plus an applicable rate. The applicable rate for these borrowings will range from 0.50% to 1.25% per annum, in the case of alternate base rate borrowings, and 1.50% to 2.25% per annum, in the case of Eurodollar borrowings. The applicable rate was initially 0.875% per annum, in the case of alternate base rate borrowings, and 1.875% per annum, in the case of Eurodollar borrowings, however, it may be adjusted from time to time based upon the level of the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement also requires the Borrowers to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving and term loan commitments. Such commitment fee will range between 0.15% and 0.25% per annum, and is also based upon the level of the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio.
As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company had drawn approximately $24,908$32,063 of the $60,000 revolving loan commitment, and none of the $40,000 term loan commitment, that was available for borrowing under the Credit Agreement.

CLARUS CORPORATION
Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various legal disputes and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that the disposition of any of the legal disputes the Company or its subsidiaries is currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company of an adverse determination could have a different effect.
Litigation
The Company is involved in various lawsuits arising from time to time that the Company considers ordinary routine litigation incidental to its business. Amounts accrued for litigation matters represent the anticipated costs (damages and/or settlement amounts) in connection with pending litigation and claims and related anticipated legal fees for defending such actions, which legal fees are expensed as incurred. The costs are accrued when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The accruals are based upon the Company’s assessment, after consultation with counsel (if deemed appropriate), of probable loss based on the facts and circumstances of each case, the legal issues involved, the nature of the claim made, the nature of the damages sought and any relevant information about the plaintiffs and other significant factors that vary by case. When it is not possible to estimate a specific expected cost to be incurred, the Company evaluates the range of probable loss and records the minimum end of the range. Based on currently available information, the Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that the disposition of any of the legal disputes the Company or its subsidiaries is currently involved in will have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. There is a reasonable possibility of loss from contingencies in excess of the amounts accrued by the Company in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets; however, the actual amounts of such possible losses cannot currently be reasonably estimated by the Company at this time. It is possible that, as additional information becomes available, the impact on the Company could have a different effect.
Product Liability
As a consumer goods manufacturer and distributor, the Company faces the risk of product liability and related lawsuits involving claims for substantial money damages, product recall actions and higher than anticipated rates of warranty returns or other returns of goods. The Company is therefore vulnerable to various personal injury and property damage lawsuits relating to its products and incidental to its business.
Based on current information, there are no pending product liability claims and lawsuits of the Company, which the Company believes in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ThereExcept for the risk factors discussed below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.
