CALAMP CORP.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 20192020 AND 20182019

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

CalAmp Corp. (referred to herein as “CalAmp”, “the Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”) is a global telematicstechnology solutions pioneer leading transformation into a mobile connected economy. We help reinvent businesses and improve lives around the globe with technology solutions that streamline complex mobile Internet of Things (“IoT”) deployments through wireless connectivity solutions and derived data intelligence. Our software applications, scalable cloud services, and intelligent devices collect and assess business-critical data anywhere in the world from mobile assetsindustrial machines, commercial and passenger vehicles, their drivers and contents. We are a global organization that is headquartered in Irvine, California. We operate under two reportable segments: Telematics Systems and Software & Subscription Services.

On February 25, 2019, we completed our acquisition

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the spread of Tracker Network (UK) Limited (“Tracker UK”),COVID-19 as a LoJack licensee and a market leader in stolen vehicle recovery (“SVR”) telematics services across the United Kingdom, for a cash purchase price of $13.1 million. On March 19, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Car Track, S.A. de C.V. (“LoJack Mexico”), the exclusive licensee of LoJack technology for the Mexican market. We purchased the remaining 87.5%pandemic. The full impact of the LoJack Mexico sharesCOVID-19 outbreak remains uncertain as of the time of this report given the diversity of rules and regulations in the U.S. and other countries in which we operate. The pandemic has resulted in travel restrictions, prohibitions of non-essential activities, disruption and shutdown of businesses and greater uncertainty in global financial markets. The effect of the outbreak may continue to impact our operating results depending on the severity of the pandemic and the actions taken or to be taken by governments and private businesses in relation to its containment. We cannot predict the extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will negatively impact our business or operating results at this time.

We have considered all known and reasonably available information that existed as of November 30, 2020, in making accounting judgments, estimates and disclosures. We are monitoring the potential effects of the health care related and economic conditions of COVID-19 in assessing certain matters including (but not limited to) supply chain disruptions, decreases in customer demand for our products and services, potential longer-term effects on our customer and distribution channels particularly in the U.S. and relevant end markets as well as other developments. If the impact results in longer-term closures of businesses and economic recessionary conditions, we did not ownmay recognize additional material asset impairments, charges for a cash purchase price of $14.3 million. On April 12, 2019, we acquired Synovia Solutions LLC (“Synovia”), a North American market leaderuncollectible accounts receivable in fleet safetyfuture periods and management for K-12 school bus and state and local government fleets for a cash purchase price of $49.8 million. Combined with the recent acquisitions of Tracker UK and LoJack Mexico, the Synovia acquisition expands our fleet management and vehicle safety services portfolio and accelerates our transformation to high-value subscription-based services. See Note 2 for a description of these acquisitions.incur additional restructuring charges.

Certain notes and other information included in the audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 201929, 2020 are condensed in or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with our 20192020 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 1, 2019.6, 2020.

In the opinion of our management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly our financial position at November 30, 20192020 and our results of operations for the three and nine months ended November 30, 20192020 and 2018.2019. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.year ending February 28, 2021.

All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue RecognitionHistorically, we had 2 reportable segments, Software & Subscription Services and Telematics Systems. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, our President and Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”), who is our current Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), realigned our operational structure into 3 reportable segments: Software & Subscriptions Services, Telematics Products and LoJack U.S. SVR Products. We have recast certain prior period amounts to conform to the way our CODM regularly reviews segment performance.

Wind Down Plan for LoJack U.S. SVR Operations

On December 16, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a plan for management to commence with the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR operations. This business unit has historically provided stolen vehicle recovery (SVR) products operating on a radio frequency allocated by the FCC for domestic automotive dealerships. These products and related judgmentsservices have been provided predominately as a hardware-based offering that no longer aligns with our core strategy. We will continue supporting our existing customers and law enforcement partners to allow sufficient time for an orderly transition out of the business. Additionally, we will continue operating and investing in our LoJack international business which operates in a subscription-based business model and is well aligned with our core SaaS strategy.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, we determined that the prolonged secular decline in revenues from our legacy LoJack U.S. SVR products coupled with the slower than anticipated market penetration of our telematics solutions in the U.S. automotive dealership channel represented determinate indications of impairment. These factors were further exacerbated by the continuing unfavorable impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the automotive end markets over the past several months. We recorded impairment losses during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 as well as the first quarter of fiscal 2021 related to goodwill, certain intangible assets and other long-lived assets. These impairment charges were related to our assessment of economic conditions, our expectations of future business conditions and trends, as well as our projected revenues, earnings, and cash flows.


Based upon our decision to wind down the LoJack U.S. SVR business and our current and prior quarterly impairment assessments, we recorded impairment losses as follows (in thousands):

In accordance with ASC 606, we We recognize revenue from product and accessories sales upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the transaction price, which is generally the stand-alone selling prices of the promised goods. For product shipments made on the basis of “FOB Destination” terms, revenue is recorded when the products reach the customer. Customers generally do not have a right of return except for defective products returned during the warranty period. We record estimated commitments related to customer incentive programs as reductions of revenues.

 

Professional Services. Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”).We also provide various professional services to customers. These include project management, engineering services, installation servicesrecognize our SaaS revenues and an on-going early warning automated notification service, which are typically distinct from other performance obligations and revenue is recognized as the related services are performed. For certain professional service contracts, we recognize revenue based on the proportion of total costs incurred to-date over the estimated cost of the contract, which is an input method.revenues in our Application subscriptions and other service revenues and cost of revenues on SaaS arrangements that combine various hardware devices over a stipulated service period.

 

Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”). Our integrated SaaS-based subscriptionssolutions for our fleet management, vehicle financetracking, monitoring and certain other verticalsrecovery services provide our customers with the ability to wirelessly communicate with monitoring devices installed in vehicles and other mobile or remote assets through our software applications. The transaction price for a typical SaaS arrangement includes the price for the hardware, accessories,customized device, installation and application subscriptions. Generally,We have applied our judgment in determining that these integrated arrangements typically represent single performance obligations satisfied over time.

Accordingly, we defer the recognition of revenue for the customized devices that only function with our applications and are sold only on an integrated basis with our proprietary applicable subscriptions. Such customized devices and the application services are not sold separately. In such circumstances, the associated productdevice related costs are recorded as deferred costs on the balance sheet. The upfront fees for the devices are not distinct from the subscription service and are combined into the subscription service performance obligation. Generally, these service arrangements do not provide the customer with the right to take possession of the software supporting the subscription service at any time. Revenues from subscription services are recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the term of the subscription. The deferred product revenue and deferred product cost amounts are amortized to application subscriptions and related products andother services revenue along with theand cost of revenue,revenues, respectively, on a straight-line basis over the estimated average in-service lives of these devices, which areis generally three to five years in the vehicle finance and four years in the fleet management verticals.for our services. In certain fleet management contracts, we provide devices as part of the

7


subscription contracts but we retain control of such devices. Under such arrangements, the cost of the devices is capitalized as property and equipment and depreciated over the estimated useful life of three to five years. The related subscription revenues of these arrangements are recognized as services are rendered. Our deferred revenue under ASC 606 also includes prepayments from our customers for various subscription services but does not include future subscription fees associated with customers’ unexercised contract renewal rights. The product revenues for certain customer arrangements are included within the caption Application subscriptions and related products and service revenue in our statement of comprehensive income (loss) as the products and services are customarily part of one customer contractual arrangement.

 

In certain customer arrangements, we also sell devices together withand monitoring services for whichseparately to customers and sell similar devices on a stand-alone basis to licensees. Accordingly, we recognize revenues for the sales of the devices are recognized upon transfer of control to the customer and recognize revenue for the related monitoring services are recognized over the service period. The allocation of the transaction price is based on relative estimated stand-alone selling prices for the devices and the monitoring services. The revenues under these arrangements

Professional Services. We also provide various professional services to customers. These include project management, engineering services and installation services, which are also included withintypically distinct from other performance obligations and are recognized as the caption Application subscriptions and related products andservices are performed. For certain professional service revenues in our statementcontracts, we recognize revenue over time based on the proportion of comprehensive income (loss).total costs incurred to-date over the estimated cost of the contract, which is an input method.

Sales taxes. We have elected to record revenue net of taxes collected from customers that are remitted to governmental authorities, with the collected taxes recorded within the caption Other current liabilities until remitted to the relevant government authority.

 

Contract Balances. Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing on our invoicing to customers. Contract liabilities are comprised of billings to or payments received from our customers in advance of performance under the contract. We refer to these contract

8


liabilities as “Deferred Revenues” in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three and nine monthsfiscal quarter ended November 30, 2019,2020, we recognized $4.7 million and $18.9$30.7 million in revenue from the beginning deferred revenue balance of $51.4$62.2 million on March 1, 2019, respectively.as of February 29, 2020. Certain incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer consist of deferred costs of hardware and sales commissions. The deferred costs of hardware are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the device on a straight-line basis. Our contract assets are primarily attributed to prepaid sales commissions, which are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the corresponding contracts. Prepaid commissions totaled $4.5 million as of November 30, 2020, of which $2.7 million was classified as non-current.

 

We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into reportable segments, geography, type of goods and services and timing of revenue recognition. See Note 1715 for our revenue by segment and geography. The disaggregation of revenue by type of goods and services and by timing of revenue recognition, which reflect the immaterial corrections as discussed below, was as follows (in thousands):

Remaining performance obligations represent contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and unbilled amounts that will be recognized as revenue in future periods. As of November 30, 2019,2020 and February 29, 2020, we have estimated the remaining performance obligations for contractually committed revenues of $64.0$135.1 million and $134.5 million, respectively. As of whichNovember 30, 2020, we expect to recognize approximately 17% in fiscal 2021 and 42% in fiscal 2022. As of those revenues through the remainder of fiscalFebruary 29, 2020, we expected to recognize approximately 44% in fiscal 2021 and 22%26% in fiscal 2022. We have utilized the practical expedient exception within ASC 606 and exclude contracts that have original durations of less than one year from the aforementioned remaining performance obligation disclosure.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with maturities at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable consists of amounts due to us from sales arrangements executed in our normal business activities and are recorded at invoiced amounts. Our payment terms generally range between 30 to 60 days and we do not offer financing options. We present the aggregate accounts receivable balance net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Generally, collateral and other security is not obtained for outstanding accounts receivable. Credit losses, if any, are recognized based on management’s evaluation of historical collection experience, customer-specific financial conditions as well as an evaluation of current industry trends and general economic conditions. Past due balances are assessed by management on a periodic basis and balances are written off when the customer’s financial condition no longer warrants pursuit of collection. Although we expect to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from estimated amounts.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. Except for the increase in expected credit losses, we are not aware of any specific event or circumstances that would require an update to our estimates or assumptions or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates and assumptions may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.

We analyzed the credit risk associated with our accounts receivables and lease receivables. Our historical loss rates have not shown any significant differences between customer industries or geographies, and, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”), we grouped all accounts receivables and lease receivables into a single portfolio. As disclosed in Note 15, Segment Information and Geographic Data, we do not have significant international geographic concentrations of revenue, and, as a result, we do not have significant concentrations of accounts receivables or lease receivables in any single geography outside of the United States. As a result of our adoption of ASU 2016-13 effective March 1, 2020, we recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance as a $0.1 million addition to our allowance for doubtful accounts with an offsetting adjustment to accumulated deficit.

The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $3.5$4.1 million and $1.8$3.1 million as of November 30, 20192020 and February 28, 2019,29, 2020, respectively.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Long-Lived Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. We evaluatetest goodwill for impairment onin accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, (“ASC 350”). Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. ASC 350 provides that an annual basis inentity has the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis, if we believe indicators of impairment exist. Weoption to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, we conclude thatafter assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we conduct a two-step quantitative goodwillthen additional impairment testing is not required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform an impairment test. The first step

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which we adopted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value exceeds carrying value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If, however, the fair value of the reporting unit with itsis less than carrying value. Ifvalue, then an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the amount that the carrying amountvalue of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit’s fair value, we perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test. The second step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying value of the goodwill. The amount by which the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value will be recognized as an impairment loss.unit.


Long-lived assets to be held and used, including identifiable intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. These events or changes in circumstances may include a significant deterioration of operating results, changes in business plans or changes in anticipated future cash flows. If an impairment indicator is present, we evaluate recoverability by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets or asset group to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the lowest level of asset group. Given the interdependencies of revenues across our segments, product and service verticals, and geographies, our asset groups are generally our two operating segments. If the assets or asset group are impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined by estimates of discounted cash flows. The discount rate used in any estimate of discounted cash flows would be the rate required for similar investment of like risk.

We estimate the fair value of property and equipment based on the cost method of valuation (Level 3 determination of fair value). Significant inputs to the valuation model include estimated asset lives, obsolescence factors and estimated salvage values.  

The recoverability assessment with respect to each of the tradenames used in our operations requires us to estimate the fair value of the asset as of the assessment date. Such determination is made using discounted cash flow techniques (Level 3 determination of fair value). Significant inputs to the valuation model include:

future revenue and profitability projections associated with the tradename through relief of royalty approach;

estimated market royalty rates that could be derived from the licensing of our tradenames to third parties in order to establish the cash flows accruing to the benefit of the Company as a result of our ownership of our tradenames; and

rate used to discount the estimated royalty cash flow projections to their present value (or estimated fair value).

We estimate the fair value of goodwill and other long-lived assets other than tradenames based on discounted cash flow techniques (Level 3 determination of fair value). Significant inputs to the valuation model include:

estimated future cash flows;

growth assumptions for future revenues as well as future gross margin rates, expense rates, capital expenditures and other estimates; and

rate used to discount our estimated future cash flow projections to their present value (or estimated fair value) based on our estimated weighted average cost of capital.

Fair Value Measurements

We apply fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in our financial statements. We define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly manner in an arm’s-length transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by using the following hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Call Transactions

We account for our convertible senior notes as separate liability and equity components. We determine the carrying amount of the liability component based on the fair value of a similar debt instrument excluding the embedded conversion option at the issuance date. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option is calculated by deducting the carrying value of the liability component from the principal amount of the notes as a whole. This difference represents a debt discount that is amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of the notes is included in stockholders’ equity and is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. We allocate transaction costs related to the issuance of the notes to the liability and equity components using the same proportions as the initial carrying value of the notes. Transaction costs attributable to the liability component are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the respective term of the notes, and transaction costs attributable to the equity components are netted with the equity component of the note in stockholders’ equity. We account for the cost of the capped calls as a reduction to additional paid-in capital.

Patent Litigation and Other Contingencies

We accrue for patent litigation and other contingencies whenever we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and a liability is reasonably estimable. The amount of the accrual is estimated based on a review of each claim, including the type and facts of the claim and our

11


assessment of the merits of the claim. These accruals are reviewed at least on a quarterly basis and are adjusted to reflect the impact of recent negotiations, settlements, court rulings, advice from legal counsel and other events pertaining to the case. Such accruals, if any, are recorded as general and administrative expense in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).loss. Although we take considerable measures to mitigate our exposure in these matters, litigation is unpredictable; however, we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to pending legal matters against us as well as adequate provisions for probable and estimable losses. All costs for legal services are expensed as incurred.

Foreign Currency Translation

We translate the assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. dollar functional currency subsidiaries into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the end of each period. Revenue and expenses for these subsidiaries are translated using rates that approximate those in effect during the period. Gains and losses from these translations are recognized in foreign currency translation included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) during the period. The aggregate foreign currency transaction exchange rate gain included in determining income (loss) before income taxes was $0.3 million and $1.1 million for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2020, respectively. The aggregate foreign currency transaction exchange rate gain (losses) included in determining income (loss) before income taxes were immaterialwas $1.2 million and $(0.1) million for both the three and nine months ended November 30, 2019, and 2018.respectively.

 

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of two components, net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”). OCI refers to revenue, expenses and gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity and excluded from net income (loss). Our OCI consists of foreign currency translation adjustments from those subsidiaries not using the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.

Recently IssuedAdopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards

Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, or ASC 326. The new standard amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology. We adopted the new allowance for credit losses accounting standard on March 1, 2020 by means of recognizing the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance as a $0.1 million addition to our allowance for doubtful accounts with an offsetting adjustment to accumulated deficit.

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued Accounting Standards UpdateASU 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That isIs a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”). The amendments in ASU 2018-15 provide guidance to align, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected bysoftware. We adopted this update. The new guidance isstandard prospectively effective for our fiscal year 2021 beginning on March 1, 2020. We do not anticipate this pronouncement will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This guidance eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test and instead requires that an entity measure the impairment of goodwill assigned to a reporting unit if the carrying value of assets and liabilities assigned to the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceed the reporting unit's fair value. The new guidance must be adopted for annual and interim goodwill tests by us in fiscal year 2021 beginning on March 1, 2020. After the adoption of this standard, which will be applied prospectively, we will follow a one-step model for goodwill impairment. We do not anticipate this pronouncement will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which was further clarified by ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases – Targeted Improvement, both issued in July 2018. ASU 2016-02 affects all entities that lease assets and establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record an ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2018-10 clarifies or corrects unintended application of guidance related to ASU 2016-02. The amendments affect narrow aspects of ASU 2016-02 related to the implicit rate in the lease, impairment of the net investment in the lease, lessee reassessment of lease classification, lessor reassessment of lease term and purchase options, variable payments that depend on an index or rate and certain transition adjustments. ASU 2018-11 adds a transition option for all entities and a practical expedient only for lessors. The transition option allows entities to not apply the new leases standard in the comparative periods, which they present in their financial statements in the year of adoption. Under the transition option, entities can opt to continue to apply the legacy guidance in ASC 840, “Leases”, including its disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented in the year they adopt the new leases standard. Entities that elect this transition option will still be required to adopt the new leases standard using the modified retrospective transition method required by the standard, but they will recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption rather than in the earliest period presented. For leases existing at, or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, lessees and lessors must apply a modified retrospective transition approach.

10


We applied the transition requirements on the adoption date of March 1, 2019, rather than at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. This approach allows for a cumulative effect adjustment in the period of adoption, and prior periods will not be restated. In addition, we elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which does not require reassessment of prior conclusions related to contracts containing a lease, lease classification and initial direct lease costs. As an accounting policy election, we excluded short-term leases (term of 12 months or less) from the balance sheet presentation and accounted for non-lease and lease components in a contract as a single lease component for certain asset classes. Subsequent to the filing of our Form 10-Q for the period ended August 31, 2019, we identified certain immaterial adjustments related to amounts recorded for the adoption of ASC 842. The revised amounts for ROU assets and lease liabilities as of March 1, 2019 are $25.6 million and $29.1 million, respectively. The effect on our condensed statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the fiscal 2020 periods was immaterial. See Note 9, Leases, for additional details.

NOTE 2 – ACQUISITIONS

In addition to the Tracker UK acquisition in February 2019, we completed two additional acquisitions, LoJack Mexico and Synovia, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

Pursuant to our business combinations accounting policy, we estimated the preliminary fair values of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, and the excess of the consideration transferred over the aggregate of such fair values was recorded as goodwill. The preliminary fair values of net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired were based upon preliminary valuations. Our estimates and assumptions reflected in such preliminary valuations are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The primary areas that remain preliminary relate to the fair values of intangible assets acquired, certain tangible assets and liabilities acquired, certain legal matters, deferred income taxes and goodwill. We expect to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired during the measurement period. The following are the preliminary purchase price allocations as of November 30, 2019 for the three acquisitions (in thousands):

Tracker UK

Effective February 25, 2019, we acquired Tracker UK, a LoJack licensee, for a total purchase price of £10.0 million, or $13.1 million, which was funded from our cash on hand. As a result of the acquisition, Tracker UK became a wholly-owned subsidiaryadoption, we recorded certain costs, particularly those incurred during the application development phase, related to the implementation of cloud computing arrangements in prepaid expenses which historically had been recorded in property and is consolidated with our financial statements beginning February 25, 2019 as a component of our Software & Subscription Services reportable segment.

We paid a premium (i.e., goodwill) over the fair value of the net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired, as we believe Tracker UK’s highly recognizable brand and extensive law enforcement relationships across the United Kingdom will help usequipment. Capitalized costs related to drive our European expansion by leveraging our complete portfolio of telematics devices, cloud and software services to develop advanced connected car solutions targeting auto dealers, OEMs, insurance providers and other enterprise customers. This acquisition enables us to integrate our European operations around advanced SVR and telematics solutions to support key enterprise customer opportunities on a pan-European basis.


The goodwill arising from the acquisition of Tracker UK is not deductible for income tax purposes.

LoJack Mexico

On March 19, 2019, we acquired LoJack Mexico, the exclusive licensee of LoJack technology for the Mexican market. LoJack Mexico will leverage our telematics and software-as-a-service solutions to expand product offering to its substantial subscriber base as well as serve auto dealers and OEMs, insurance providers and leasing companies throughout Mexico. We purchased the remaining 87.5% of the LoJack Mexico shares that we did not own for a cash purchase price of $14.3 million. Our previously held 12.5% equity interest in LoJack Mexico was determined to have a fair value of $2.0 million at acquisition date which resulted in a gain of $0.3 million, which was recorded as investment income in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss)computing arrangements for the nine months ended November 30, 2019. LoJack Mexico is consolidated with our financial statements effective March 19, 2019 as a component of our Software & Subscription Services reportable segment.

Synovia

On April 12, 2019, we acquired Synovia, a North American market leader2020, which are included in fleet safetyprepaid expenses and management for K-12 school bus and state and local government fleets, for a total cash purchase price of $49.8 million. Combined with the recent acquisitions of Tracker UK and LoJack Mexico, the Synovia acquisition expands our fleet management and vehicle safety services portfolio. This acquisition also accelerates our transformation to high-value subscription-based services. Synovia is consolidated with our financial statements effective April 12, 2019 as a component of our Software & Subscription Services reportable segment.

In conjunction with the acquisition of Synovia, we assumed the rights and obligations under certain revenue assignment arrangements with several financial institutions (the “Factors”). Pursuant to the terms of the arrangements, Synovia sold to the Factors rights to all future revenues of certain subscription contractsother current assets on a non-recourse basis for credit approved accounts. Under ASC 805, Business Combination, we recorded the amounts due to the Factors as a debt obligation at the fair value as of the acquisition date and the outstanding amount is presented as part of our long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheet (see Note 7).sheets, were not material.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, Not Yet Adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which removes certain separation models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock that require the separation of a convertible debt instrument into a debt component and an equity or derivative component. The fair valueASU also expands disclosure requirements for convertible instruments and simplifies areas of the guidance for diluted earnings-per-share calculations that are impacted by the amendments. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the impact of the adoption of this debt of $19.7 million was determined using a pre-tax cost of debt of 4.7% at the time of our acquisition of Synovia.

We paid a premium (i.e., goodwill) over the fair value of the net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired, as we believe we will expand our fleet management and vehicle safety services portfolio and will increase our customer reach by gaining access to a base of high-value and low-churn subscribers.

The goodwill arising from the acquisition of Synovia is deductible for income tax purposes.

We incurred approximately $1.1 million for the acquisition of Synovia and LoJack Mexico the nine months ended November 30, 2019 and $0.9 million in fiscal 2019. The acquisition-related costs were primarily legal expenses, which were recorded as part of our general and administrative expenses.

Pro forma financial information for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2018 for acquired companies is not disclosed as the results are not material to our condensedguidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period to be benefited by future cash flows. We monitor and assess these assets for impairment on a periodic basis. Our assessment includes various new product lines and services, which leverage the existing intangible assets as well as consideration of historical and projected revenues and cash flows. AsBased upon our decision to commence with the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR business, we performed an assessment of the carrying amount of the related intangible assets supporting these products. Our assessment of the future cash flows generated by these assets concluded that an impairment loss was present and recorded an impairment loss of $0.5 million for Developed technology and $1.0 million for U.S. dealer relationships during nine months ended November 30, 2019, we determined that there was no impairment of intangible assets.2020.

The effective interest rates for the convertible notes include the interest on the notes and amortization of the discount. As of November 30, 20192020 and February 28, 2019,29, 2020, the fair value of the convertible notes,2025 Convertible Notes was $191 million and $197 million, respectively, based on Level 2 inputs, was $217 million and $303 million, respectively.

2020 Convertible Notes

In May 2015, we issued $172.5 million principal amount of 1.625% convertible senior unsecured notes due in 2020 (“2020 Convertible Notes”). These notes require semi-annual interest payments at a rate of 1.625% until maturity, conversion or purchase, which will be no later than in May 15, 2020.

The notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at our election based on initial conversion price of $32.5256. In July 2018, we repurchased $50 million in aggregate principal amount of these notes for $53.8 million, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of $2.0 million and $6.1 million charged to additional paid-in capital. We also received $3.1 million from the unwinding of certain hedging instruments related to these notes.

In October and November 2019, we entered into separate, privately negotiated purchase agreements to repurchase approximately $94.9 million in aggregate principal amount of these notes for $94.7 million. The repurchase is accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, not a modification of debt. The fair value of the liability was determined using a discounted cash flow analysis at a market interest rate for nonconvertible debt based on the remaining maturity of the 2020 Convertible Notes, which represented a Level 3 fair value measurement. The carrying value of the repurchased notes was $92.3 million, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.4 million. Our intent is to settle the $27.6 million remaining principal amount of the 2020 Convertible Notes in cash upon maturity.inputs.

2025 Convertible Notes

 

In July 2018, we issued debt of $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior unsecured notes due in 2025 (“2025 Convertible Notes”). These notes will require semi-annual interest payments at a rate of 2.00% until maturity, conversion, redemption or repurchase, which will be no later than August 1, 2025. We may redeem the notes at our option at any time on or after August 6, 2022 at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount plus accrued interest, but only if the last reported sale price per share of our stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date we send such notice. The 2025 Convertible Notes are convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of both, at our election, based on an initial conversion price of $30.7450. Holders may convert their 2025 Convertible Notes at their option upon the occurrence of certain events, as defined in the 2025 Indenture. Approximately $51.9 million, net of tax, was allocated to additional paid-in capital upon issuance of these notes.

 

      

In July 2018, in connection with the 2025 Convertible Notes, we entered into capped call transactions with certain option counterparties who were initial purchasers of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The capped call transactions are expected to reduce the potential dilution of earnings per share upon conversion of the 2025 Convertible Notes. Under the capped call transactions, we purchased options relating to 7.48 million shares of common stock underlying the notes, with a strike price equal to the conversion price of the notes and with a cap price equal to $41.3875. We paid $21.2 million for the note hedges and as a result, approximately $15.9 million, net of tax, was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity.

2020 Convertible Notes

In October and November 2019, we repurchased approximately $94.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the 1.625% convertible senior unsecured notes for $94.7 million, which had a carrying value of $92.3 million, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.4 million. On May 15, 2020, we repaid the remaining principal balance of $27.6 million of the 1.625% convertible senior unsecured notes issued in May 2015.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 30, 2018, we entered into a revolving credit facility with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. that provides for borrowings up to $50.0 million. This revolving credit facility was extended on March 27, 2020 with a new maturity date of March 30, 2022. At our election, the borrowings under this revolving credit facility bear interest at (a) for base rate loans, a base rate based on the highest of (i) 0%, (ii) the rate of interest publicly announced by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Agent”) as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City, (iii) the overnight bank funding rate as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 0.50% and (iv) the LIBOR-based rate for a one-month interest period on such day plus 1%; or (b) for Eurodollar loans, the higher of (x) 1.00% and (y) the LIBOR-based rate for one, three or six months (as selected by the Company) for Eurodollar deposits. An applicable margin is added based on the Company’s senior leverage ratio, ranging from 1.50% to 2.00% for base rate loans, and from 2.50% to 3.00% for Eurodollar loans. We will also pay a commitment fee based on our senior leverage ratio ranging from 0.40% to 0.50%, payable quarterly in arrears, on the average daily unused amount of the Credit Facility. Amounts owing under the credit agreement and related credit documents are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. We have also granted security interests in substantially all of our respective assets to secure these obligations. The net proceeds available under the revolving credit facility can be used for repayment of existing debt, working capital and general corporate purposes. On November 19, 2020, we repaid the $20.0 million borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility and accrued interest of $0.1 million. There were 0 borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility at November 30, 2020.

The revolving credit facility contains certain negative and affirmative covenants including financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum level of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges (Adjusted EBITDA) to interest ratio, a minimum senior indebtedness ratio and a total indebtedness coverage ratio, all measured on a quarterly basis. As of November 30, 2020, we were in compliance with our covenants under the revolving credit facility.

Synovia Revenue Assignments

 

In conjunction with the acquisition of Synovia on April 12, 2019, (see Note 2), we assumed the rights and obligations under certain revenue assignment arrangements with several financial institutions (the “Factors”). Pursuant to the terms of the arrangements, Synovia sold to the Factors rights to all future revenues of certain subscription contracts on a non-recourse basis for credit approved accounts. The sales price paid represents a percentage of the total contract value (generally 80%) due to Synovia at the beginning of the contract, with the total customer contract balance to be paid by the customers to the Factors over the contract period. The cost of the transaction was recorded as a contra-liability, and was recognized as interest expense over the term of the subscription contract using the effective interest method, while the assigned customer obligation is amortized to subscription revenues using the straight-line method.

 

These arrangements with the Factors met the criteria in ASC 470-10-25, Sales of Future Revenues or Various Other Measures of Income, (“ASC 470”), which relates to cash received from an investor in exchange for a specified percentage or amount of revenue or other measure of income of a particular product line, business segment, trademark, patent, or contractual right for a defined period. Under this guidance, the arrangement qualified as a debt instrument for accounting purposes due to Synovia’s significant continuing involvement in the generation of cash flows due to the Factors. Further, under ASC 805, Business Combination, we recorded the amounts due to the Factors as a debt obligation at fair value in the opening balance sheet and the outstanding amount is presented as part of our long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of this debt of $19.7 million was determined using a pre-tax cost of debt of 4.7% at the time of our acquisition of Synovia. The discount of $1.5 million will beis being amortized under the interest method. During the three months ended November 30, 2020 and 2019, we recognized $0.1 million and $0.2 million of interest expense related to this debt, respectively. During the nine months ended November 30, 2020 and 2019, we recognized $0.2$0.4 million and $0.5 million of interest expense related to this debt, respectively. The revenues recognized from this arrangement of $4.9 million and $5.0 million were considered a non-cash activity in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended November 30, 2019.2020 and 2019, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 30, 2018, we entered into a revolving credit facility with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, dated as of March 30, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”) that provides for borrowings up to $50.0 million. This revolving credit facility expires on March 30, 2020. At our election, the borrowings under this revolving credit facility bear interest at either a LIBOR-based variable rate plus an applicable margin, or at the greater of the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate plus an applicable margin rate and one-month LIBOR-based variable rate plus an applicable margin rate (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) determined based on our senior leverage ratio from time to time. The net proceeds available under the revolving credit facility can be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. There were no borrowings outstanding under this revolving credit facility at November 30, 2019.

The revolving credit facility contains certain negative and affirmative covenants including financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum level of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges (Adjusted EBITDA) to interest ratio, a minimum senior indebtedness ratio and a total indebtedness coverage ratio, all measured on a quarterly basis. As of November 30, 2019, we were in compliance with our covenants under the revolving credit facility. 

 

 

NOTE 87 – RESTRUCTURING CHARGESACTIVITIES

Beginning in the first quarter ofSince fiscal 2019, we commencedexecuted under a plan to capture certain synergies and cost savings related to streamlining our global operations and sales organization, as well as rationalize certain leased properties that arewere not fully occupied. Our plan is aligned with our strategy to integrate the global sales organization and further outsource manufacturing functions in order to drive operational efficiency, increase supplier geographic diversity, and reduce operating expenses. To date, total restructuring charges were $11.1$15.0 million, comprised of $6.2$9.1 million in severance and employee related costs, and $5.0$5.9 million for vacant office and manufacturing facility space. Restructuring charges related to vacant office and manufacturing facility space waswere due primarily to the vacancy in Canton, Massachusetts of $4.5 million.$3.3 million, which was sub-leased starting in May 2020. The anticipated rent payments for the ceased-use leased facilities will be made through December 2025. Substantially all charges related to severance and employee costs were under the Telematics SystemsProducts and LoJack U.S. SVR Products reportable segment.segments. As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, effective March 1, 2019, the balance of the restructuring liability related to certain facility leases havehas been reclassified as a reduction of the Operating lease right-of-use assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

For the three months ended November 30, 2019, total restructuring charges were $0.8 million, all of which were related to severance and employee costs. For the nine months ended November 30, 2019,2020, total restructuring charges were $3.1$0.1 million which wasand $2.6 million, respectively. Total restructuring charges incurred to date in fiscal 2021 were comprised of $1.9$2.3 million in severance and employee related costs, which included $0.9 million stock-based compensation, and $1.2$0.3 million for vacant office space. Substantially all charges were recorded under the Telematics Systems reportable segment. The impairment of $1.2 million for the vacant office space was recorded as a reduction of Operating lease right-of-use assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 2019.facilities. The restructuring liabilities related to personnel were included in Accrued payroll and employee benefits in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of November 30, 20192020 and February 28, 2019.29, 2020.

As described in Note 1, our Board of Directors approved a plan to commence the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR operations as the products and services currently provided no longer aligns with our core strategy. Currently, we expect to incur up to $2.0 million nonrecurring cash charge related to severance and personnel costs in the fourth quarter. Additionally, we expect that we will incur contract termination and other related costs as we proceed with the wind down, which we are unable to estimate at this time.

 

NOTE 98 – LEASES

We have various non-cancelable operating leases for our offices in California, Texas, Massachusetts, Indiana, Minnesota and Virginia in the United States, and Italy, Mexico and the United Kingdom. We also have various non-cancelable operating leases for towers and vehicles throughout the United States, Italy and Mexico. These leases expire at various times through 2028. Certain lease agreements contain renewal options, rent abatement, and escalation clauses that are factored into our determination of lease payments when appropriate.

NOTE 109 - INCOME TAXES

We use the assets and liabilities method when accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax asset and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Under U.S. GAAP we are allowed

We evaluate our estimated annual effective tax rate (“ETR”) on a quarterly basis based on current and forecasted operating results. The relationship between our income tax provision or benefit and our pretax book income or loss can vary significantly from period to make an accounting policy choiceperiod considering, among other factors, the overall level of pretax book income or loss and changes in the blend of jurisdictional income or loss that is taxed at different rates and changes in valuation allowances. The income tax expense of $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2020, respectively, was primarily attributable to either: (1) treat taxes due on future GILTI inclusions in U.S. taxable income as a current-period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”); or (2) factor in such amounts into our measurementone of our deferred taxes (the “deferred method”). We have elected to account for GILTI as a period cost in the year the tax is incurred. Accordingly, no GILTI-related deferred amounts were recorded.

Deferred tax assets are to be reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Significant management judgment is required in assessing the realizability of our deferred tax assets.  We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, in assessing the extent to which a valuation allowance should be applied against our deferred tax assets.  If, based on our assessment, we determine that it is more likely than not (intended to mean a likelihood that it is more than 50%) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is established.

Since we were profitable for the last two fiscal years and began to incur losses this current fiscal year, the assessment as to the need for a valuation allowance is difficult since there is both positive and negative evidence present. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon generation of future taxable income in each tax jurisdiction during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible.  We have considered the scheduled reversal of deferred liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies, and have determined, based on our assessment of both objective and subjective evidence that it is more likely than not that we will realize our net deferred tax assets at this time. However, we will continue to reassess these facts and circumstances in future quarters and we can provide no assurance as to whether a valuation allowance will be required in the future.

We fileforeign subsidiaries. Any income tax returns inbenefit associated with the U.S. federal and states jurisdictions as well as Puerto Rico, Mexico, Canada, Ireland, Italy, United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Brazil and New Zealand. Certain income tax returnspre-tax loss for the years 2014 through present remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities. Our tax returns in the foreign jurisdictions remain open for examination for varying years from 2013 to the present. We believe that we have adequate reserves for any uncertain tax positions. It is reasonably possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that could be realized within the next 12 months is $0.6 million.

Our net deferred tax assets increased during the nine months ending November 30, 2019 as a result of recording a deferred tax asset for additional net operating loss carryforwards for the period, reversal of valuation allowance against foreign tax credits and recording a preliminary net deferred tax asset relating to our acquisitions through the quarter ended November 30, 2019 (see Note 2).2020, resulting primarily from the U.S. jurisdiction, is offset by a full valuation allowance.

NOTE 1110 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and restricted stock-based awards using the treasury stock method.

The calculation of the basic and diluted income (loss)loss per share of common stock is as follows (in thousands, except per share value):

All outstanding options and restricted stock units for the three and nine months ended November 30, 20192020 and for the three months ended November 30, 20182019 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because we reported a net loss for each of these periods and the effect of inclusion would be antidilutive.

We have the option to pay cash, issue shares of common stock or any combination thereof for the aggregate amount due upon conversion of the convertible senior notes.2025 Convertible Notes. It is our intent to settle the principal amount of these notes with cash, and therefore, we use the treasury stock method for calculating any potential dilutive effect of the conversion option on diluted earnings (loss) per share. From the time of the issuance of the notes, the average market price of our common stock has been less than the initial conversion price of the notes, and consequently no0 shares have been included in diluted earnings per share for the conversion value of the notes.

NOTE 1211 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On June 7, 2018, our Board of Directors adopted the CalAmp Corp. 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which was approved by our stockholders on July 25, 2018. The ESPP provides for the issuance of 1,750,000 shares of our common stock. The first enrollment under the ESPP Plan commenced in February 2019. There are two enrollment periods each year that commence on February 1st and August 1st and lasts for six months. Stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2019 was $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

NOTE 13 – COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of two components, net income (loss) and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“OCI”). OCI refers to revenue, expenses, and gains and losses that under GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. Our OCI consists of currency translation adjustments from our foreign subsidiaries that do not use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.

We are currently reliant upon these suppliers for products. Although we believe that we can obtain products from other sources, the loss of a significant supplier could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations as the products that are being purchased may not be available on similar terms from another supplier.

NOTE 1513 - PRODUCT WARRANTIES

All products have a one- or two-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects and workmanship. We estimate the future costs relating to product returns subject to our warranty and record a reserve upon shipment of our products. We periodically adjust our estimate for actual warranty claims and historical claims experience as well as the impact of known product operational issues. During the second fiscal quarter, we recorded $1.4 million in the resolution of a product performance matter with a customer which was paid as of November 30, 2020. The warranty reserve is included in Other Current Liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Activity in the accrued warranty costs liability is as follows (in thousands):

The amount shown for each period in the “Corporate Expenses” column above consists of expenses that are not allocated to the business segments. These non-allocated corporate expenses include salaries and benefits of certain corporate staff and expenses such as audit fees, investor relations, stock listing fees, director and officer liability insurance, and director fees and expenses.

Our CODM evaluates each segment based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain other charges (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and we therefore consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a primary measure of operating performance of our operatingreportable segments. The adjustments to our net income (losses) prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to calculate Adjusted EBITDA are itemized below (in thousands):

NOTE 1816 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Omega patent infringement claim

 

As previously disclosed inOn May 6, 2020, we filed our Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2019 that was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 2019, we filed motions with the court seeking judgment as a matter of law and for a new trial in response to the patent infringement law suit filed by Omega Patents, LLC (“Omega”) that was decided against us in 2016. The court denied our motions on November 14, 2017. We then appealed to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Federal Circuit”). The appeal was fully briefed, and the court heard oral argument on January 9, 2019. On April 8, 2019, the Federal Circuit vacated the compensatory and enhanced damages and attorney’s fees awarded by the trial court to Omega. The Federal Circuit also set aside the jury’s verdict that our alleged infringement was willful, and remanded the case for a new trial. As a result, substantially all of the previously reserved legal provisions of $19.1 million as of November 30, 2018 were reversed as of February 28, 2019. The reversal was recorded as a reduction of general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2019. The new trial began29, 2020 which disclosed the current status of the Omega patent infringement claim. In summary, on September 23, 2019 inMarch 20, 2020, the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida and on September 30, 2019, the jury determined that the Company infringed two of the four patents; however, the jury found that there was no willful infringement. On the first patent (U.S. Pat. No. 7,671,727), the jury found only one unit infringed, and assessed $1 in damages. On the second patent (U.S. Pat. No. 8,032,278), the jury found direct infringement and awarded damages at a rate of $5 per unit,(the “Trial Court”) denied our motion for total damages of approximately $4.6 million. On November 26, 2019 the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida entered judgment, awarding Omega damages of $4.6 million, together with pre-judgment interest in the amount of $0.8 million through September 30, 2019. We plan to file motions with the court seeking judgmentjudgement as a matter of law in our favor and, alternatively,(“JMOL”), a new trial. If, following resolutiontrial, and remittitur of those motions,damages. Also, on March 20, 2020, the judgment againstTrial Court denied Omega’s motion for a new trial on willfulness. On April 1, 2020, the Company remains intact, we intendTrial Court denied Omega’s motion to again pursue an appeal atenhance the Federal Circuit.

In connection with this claim, we have accrued our best estimateroyalty rate beyond the jury’s award of $5 per unit and motion to conduct post-trial discovery on CalAmp’s other OBD-II compliant LMUs. On April 3, 2020, the Trial Court denied Omega’s final motion regarding infringement of the probable liability based on reasonable royalty rates for similar technologies. ItVPODs. Omega’s cross-appeal reply brief, which will be the final brief in the appeal, is reasonably possible that the judgement and amounts described above could be upheld.due December 21, 2020.

 

We also initiated ex parte reexamination proceedings filed in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office seeking to invalidate a number of Omega’s patents involved in the litigation. Those proceedings currently remain pending. We continue to believe that our products do not infringe on any of Omega’s patents. While it

Other matters

In addition to the foregoing matters, from time to time as a normal consequence of doing business, various claims and litigation may be asserted or commenced against us. In particular, in the ordinary course of business, we may receive claims concerning personnel matters, contract performance or claims that our products or services infringe the intellectual property of third parties. In connection with these matters, we may be required to enter into license agreements or other settlement arrangements that require us to make significant paymentsparties which are in the future.ordinary course of business.

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

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The critical accounting policies listed below involve our more significant accounting judgments and estimates that are used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. These policies are described in greater detail in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) under Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2019,29, 2020, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 1, 2019,6, 2020, and include the following areas:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OUR COMPANY

We are a telematics pioneer leading transformation in a mobile connected economy. We help reinvent businesses and improve lives around the globe with technology solutions that streamline complex Internet of Things (“IoT”) developmentsdeployment through wireless connectivity solutions and derived data intelligence. Our software applications, scalable cloud services, and intelligent devices collect and assess business-critical data from mobile assets and their contents. Our business is organized intoHistorically, we had two reportable segments: Telematics Systems andsegments, Software & Subscription Services.Services and Telematics Systems. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is our current Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), realigned our operational structure into three reportable segments: Software & Subscriptions Services, Telematics Products and LoJack U.S. SVR Products. Our organizational structure is based on a number of factors that our CEO, as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”),CODM, uses to evaluate and operate the business, which include, but are not limited to, customer base, homogeneity of products, and technology within these twothree segments. A description of the reportable business segments is provided below.

On February 25, 2019, we completed our acquisition of Tracker Network (UK) Limited (“Tracker UK”), a LoJack licensee and a market leader in stolen vehicle recovery (“SVR”) telematics services across the United Kingdom, for a cash purchase price of $13.1 million. On March 19, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Car Track, S.A. de C.V. (“LoJack Mexico”), the exclusive licensee of LoJack technology for the Mexican market. We purchased the remaining 87.5% of the LoJack Mexico shares that we did not own for a cash purchase price of $14.3 million. On April 12, 2019, we acquired Synovia Solutions LLC (“Synovia”), a North American market leader in fleet safety and management for K-12 school bus and state and local government fleets for a cash purchase price of $49.8 million. Combined with the recent acquisitions of Tracker UK and LoJack Mexico, the Synovia acquisition expands our fleet management and vehicle safety services portfolio and accelerates our transformation to high-value subscription-based services. See Note 2 for a description of these acquisitions.

TELEMATICS SYSTEMS

Our Telematics Systems segment offers a series of advanced telematics and SVR products for the broader connected vehicle marketplace, which enable customers to optimize their operations by collecting, monitoring and effectively reporting business-critical information and desired intelligence from high-value remote and mobile assets. Our telematics products include asset tracking units, mobile telematics devices, mobile gateways, and routers. These wireless networking devices underpin a wide range of solutions, and are ideal for applications demanding secure, reliable and business-critical communications.

SOFTWARESoftware & SUBSCRIPTION SERVICESSubscription Services

Our Software & Subscription Services segment offers cloud-based application enablement and telematics service platforms that facilitate integration of our own applications, as well as those of third parties, through open Application Programming Interfaces (“APIs”) to deliver full-featured mobile IoT solutions to a wide range of customers and markets. Our scalable proprietary applications and other subscription services enable rapid and cost-effective development of high-value solutions for customers all around the globe. Effective as of the respective transaction dates, our recently acquired businesses, Tracker UK, LoJack Mexico and Synovia, became components of this segment (see Note 2).

Telematics Products

 

26Our Telematics Products segment offers a series of advanced telematics products for the broader connected vehicle marketplace, which enable customers to optimize their operations by collecting, monitoring and effectively reporting business-critical information and desired intelligence from high-value remote and mobile assets. Our telematics products include asset tracking units, mobile telematics devices, mobile gateways, and routers. These wireless networking devices underpin a wide range of solutions, and are ideal for applications demanding secure, reliable and business-critical communications.


LoJack U.S. SVR Products

Our LoJack U.S. SVR Products segment offers a series of security and protection products and services for tracking and recovering vehicles. Our Stolen Vehicle Recovery (“SVR”) solution is the only one directly integrated with law enforcement that has a 90%+ recovery rate and over $1 billion worth of recoveries in the U.S. alone. As described in Note 1 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, our Board of Directors approved a plan for management to commence the wind down of LoJack U.S. SVR operations.

Adjusted EBITDA

 

In addition to our U.S. GAAP results, we present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental non-GAAP measure of our performance. A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principlesGAAP in the statements of comprehensive income (loss),loss, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Earnings Before Investment Income, Interest Expenses, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization,earnings before investment income, interest expenses, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration expenses, non-cash costs and expenses arising from purchase accounting adjustments, litigation provision, gain from legal settlement and certain other adjustments. Our CEO, as the CODM, uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate and monitor segment performance. We believe this non-GAAP financial information provides additional insight into our ongoing performance and have therefore chosen to provide this information to investors for a more consistent basis of comparison to help

25


investors evaluate our results of ongoing operations and enable more meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Pursuant to the rule and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange CommissionSEC regarding the use of non-GAAP financial measures, we have provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure. See Note 1715 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information related to Adjusted EBITDA by reportable segments and reconciliation to net income (loss).loss.

Recent Developments

COVID-19 Impact

In December 2019, a strain of coronavirus entitled COVID-19 emerged in China and spread to other countries including to the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a public health pandemic of international concern, which has resulted in travel restrictions and in some cases, prohibitions of non-essential activities, disruption and shutdown of businesses and greater uncertainty in global financial markets.

In the United States and other geographies in which we and our customers, partners and service providers operate, the health concerns as well as political or governmental developments in response to COVID-19 could result in economic, social or labor instability or prolonged contractions in certain end markets which could slow the sales process, result in customers not purchasing or renewing contracts or failing to make payments. These events could have a material adverse effect on the business and results of operations and financial condition.

Our business and operating results depend on telematics product sales, device installations and related subscription-based services. In certain situations, the outbreak has limited our ability to install devices in the nine months ended November 30, 2020. The effect of the outbreak may continue to impact our operating results depending on the severity of the pandemic and the actions taken or to be taken by governments and private businesses in relation to its containment.

We have adopted several measures in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, including instructing employees to work from home, implementing certain cost and cash flow control measures to address potential declines in billings and cash collections from customers, shifting the manner in which we engage with customers and restricting non-critical business travel by our employees. As a result of the work and travel restrictions, substantially all of our sales and installation services activities are being conducted or managed remotely.

Wind Down Plan for LoJack U.S. SVR Operations

On December 16, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a plan for management to commence with the wind down of the LoJack U.S. operations. This business unit has historically provided SVR products operating on a radio frequency allocated by the FCC for domestic automotive dealerships. These products and related services have been provided predominately as a hardware-based offering that no longer aligns with our core strategy. We will continue supporting existing customers and law enforcement partners to allow sufficient time for an orderly transition out of the business. Additionally, we will continue operating and investing in our LoJack international business which operates in a subscription-based business model and is well aligned with our core SaaS strategy.

Telematics SystemsSoftware & Subscription Services revenue decreasedincreased by $5.4$1.0 million or 7.8%3.0% for the three months ended November 30, 20192020 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to revenue growth in our government, municipalities and K-12 school bus end markets as well as our international recovery services specifically in Italy and the United Kingdom, partially offset by a decrease in revenue in Mexico as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.  

Telematics Products revenue decreased by $7.8 million or 15.1% for the three months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was attributable to reduced sale volume in three product categories including MRM telematics, OEM/network products and legacy LoJack SVR products. The decrease in MRM telematics products sales was primarily due to a reductiondecline in sales volumedemand from our small-to-medium sized customers adversely impacted by the uncertain market conditions prompted by the COVID-19. The decline was partially offset by an increase in OEM/Network products revenue as we accelerate the migration to a few larger customers. The decrease in OEM/networkLTE products was attributable to a reduction in sales towith one of our largest OEM/network products customer which is in the middle of a product line transition and also commencing the rollout of the initial phase of a 3G-to-4G LTE retrofit program.customers. We expect this overall

LoJack USU.S. SVR Products revenue continuesdecreased by $1.8 million or 15.5% for the three months ended November 30, 2020 compared to declinethe same period last year. The decrease was due to a decline in customer demand attributed to the COVID-19 outbreak in the U.S. since February 2020 as well as a technology transition from proprietary radio frequency technology to GPS-based telematics solutions.

Telematics Systems revenue decreased by $33.2 million or 15.0% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was attributable to reduced sale volume in three product categories including MRM telematics, OEM/network products and legacy LoJack SVR products. The decrease in MRM telematics products sales was primarily due to a reduction in sales volume to a few larger customers including Synovia Solutions, which we acquired in in April 2019, and is now contributing to our Software & Subscription Services segment. The decrease in OEM/network products was attributable to a reduction in sales to our largest OEM/network products customer which is in the middle of a product line transition and also commencing the rollout of the initial phase of a 3G-to-4G LTE retrofit program. We expect this decline to be temporary and to be offset by demands from our customers as the 3G network sunset becomes more imminent. Legacy LoJack SVR revenue continued its secular decline due to a technology transition from proprietary radio frequency technology to GPS-based telematics solutions. We expect this decline to continue but be offset to a degree over time by revenues from our recent acquisitions and future growth in our telematics solutions, such as SureDrive and LotSmart within our Software & Subscription Services segment.

Software & Subscription Services revenue increased by $32.7 million or 57.0% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The increase was due primarily to the three recent acquisitions of Tracker UK, LoJack Mexico and Synovia, coupled with growth in LoJack Italy.

Consolidated gross profit decreased by $4.3 million or 3.8% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The decrease in absolute dollar terms was due to lower revenue in the Telematics Systems business partially offset by continued growth in Software & Subscription Services as described above.

Consolidated gross margin decreased by 150 basis points for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 from 40.9% for the same period last year, which was primarily attributable to a decrease in gross margin from the Telematics Systems business. Our gross margin performance was impacted principally by product mix coupled with incremental charges for excess and obsolete inventory and unfavorable manufacturing variances as we proceed with the closure of our manufacturing facility in Oxnard, California within the next 90 days. Gross margin for Software & Subscription Services decreased to 44.0% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 from 48.9% for the same period last year.

Consolidated research and development expense increased by $1.2 million or 5.5% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by additional compensation expenses related to an increase in headcount due to acquired businesses. We will continue to invest in research and development of new products and technologies to be sold through the U.S. and international sales channels.

Consolidated selling and marketing expense increased by $7.4 million or 19.7% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by additional compensation expenses related to an increase in headcount due to the acquired businesses.

Consolidated general and administrative expense increased by $7.5 million or 20.2% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by additional compensation expenses related to an increase in headcount due to acquired businesses and increases in legal and professional fees related to the acquisitions and certain non-recurring legal matters. We began partial operations on the new ERP system in June 2019, which resulted in increased general and administrative expense. Certain implementation costs on our new ERP system were capitalized as Property and Equipment in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As described in Note 815 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements during the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we incurred an additional $3.1 million in restructuring costs related to the cost savings plan that commenced in May 2018. Total restructuring costs decreased $2.1 million or 40% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was attributable to lower restructuring costs related to vacant office and manufacturing plant facilities. For the nine months ended November 30, 2018, we partially vacated these facilities and recorded a cost of $2.7 million. During the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we fully vacated certain offices, which resulted in a cost of $1.2 million. Restructuring costs are shown separately in the operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).

Interest expense increased to $16.0 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 from $11.6 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2018 primarily due to additional interest and amortization of debt discount and issue costs related to the 2025 Convertible Notes issued in July 2018 and amortization of discount of Due to Factors.

During the nine months ended November 30, 2018, we recognized a $15.8 million gain from the legal settlement with a former supplier of LoJack. The final payment on the legal settlement was received in February 2019.

During the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we recognized a loss of $2.4 million on extinguishment of debt on the repurchase of $94.9 million of our 2020 Convertible Notes in October and November 2019.

We evaluate our estimated annual effective tax rate (“ETR”) on a quarterly basis based on current and forecasted operating results. The relationship between our income tax provision or benefit and our pretax book income or loss can vary significantly from period to period considering, among other factors, the overall level of pretax book income or loss and changes in the blend of jurisdictional income or loss that is taxed at different rates.rates and changes in valuation allowances. Consequently, our ETR may fluctuate significantly period to period and may make quarterly comparisons less than meaningful.

An income tax expense of $0.3 million was recorded for the three months ended November 30, 2020, compared to an income tax benefit of $6.2$2.6 million in the same period last year. The $2.9 million increase in tax expense was primarily driven by a pre-tax loss in the current period which did not result in an income tax benefit due to the recording of a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets.

Software & Subscription Services revenue increased by $6.0 million or 6.7% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to revenue growth in fleet management, government, municipalities and K-12 school bus end markets as well as our international recovery services specifically in Mexico and the United Kingdom, partially offset by a decrease in revenue due to decline in installation for businesses such as Italy as a result of COVID-19 pandemic.  

Telematics Products revenue decreased by $21.7 million or 14.3% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was attributable to reduced sale volume due to a decline in demand from our small-to-medium sized customers adversely impacted by the uncertain market conditions prompted by the COVID-19. The decline was partially offset by an increase in OEM/Network products revenue as we accelerate the migration to LTE products with one of our largest customers. We expect this overall decline in Telematics Products to be temporary and to be offset by increased customer demand in the early part of fiscal 2022 as the 3G network sunset becomes more imminent and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic diminish.

LoJack U.S. SVR Products revenue decreased by $11.5 million or 31.2% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was due to a decline in customer demand attributed to the COVID-19 outbreak in the U.S. since February 2020 as well as a technology transition from proprietary radio frequency technology to GPS-based telematics solutions.

Consolidated gross profit decreased by $13.1 million or 11.9% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year, and consolidated gross margin decreased by 90 basis points for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The decline in consolidated gross profit and gross margin was due to lower revenue in our Telematics and LoJack U.S. SVR Products as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as a $1.4 million one-time charge related to the resolution of a product performance matter with a customer. The decline in gross margin was partially offset by continued growth in Software & Subscription Services as described above.

Cost of revenues above excludes restructuring related costs, which is shown separately in operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

Consolidated research and development expense decreased by $2.5 million or 10.9% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year as we implemented certain cost containment measures in connection with the COVID-19 outbreak. We will continue to invest in research and development of new products and technologies to be sold through the U.S. and international sales channels as market conditions improve.

Consolidated selling and marketing expense decreased by $4.2 million or 9.2% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily driven by lower tradeshow and related travel and advertising expenses due to the COVID-19 pandemic coupled with lower sales commissions due to the decline in sales. We will invest in additional headcounts in sales and marketing as we gain greater visibility into customer demand as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic diminish.

Consolidated general and administrative expenses decreased by $3.5 million or 7.7% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year. The decrease was primarily driven by reduced personnel costs and lower professional fees related to certain non-recurring legal matters and acquisitions in fiscal 2020 coupled with reduced expenses as we further integrate acquired businesses.

Amortization of intangibles decreased by $4.1 million or 42.3% for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 compared to the same period last year due to reduced amortization resulting from the intangible assets impairment losses recorded in fiscal 2020 and first quarter of fiscal 2021.

During fiscal 2019, we commenced a plan to capture certain synergies and cost savings related to streamlining our global operations and sales organization as well as rationalize certain leased properties that are vacant. We incurred charges of $2.6 million for this initiative during the nine months ended November 30, 2020, which were primarily personnel related. Restructuring costs are shown separately in operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

In February 2020, we determined that the prolonged secular decline in revenues from our legacy LoJack US SVR Products coupled with the slower than anticipated market penetration of our telematics solutions in the U.S. automotive dealership channel represented determinate indications of impairment. These factors were further exacerbated by the unfavorable impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the automotive end markets over the past ten months. Further, on December 16, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a plan for management to commence the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR operations. Based upon our decision to wind down the LoJack U.S. SVR business and our current and prior quarterly impairment assessments, we recorded impairment losses of $22.6 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2020. These losses were comprised of write-downs of $12.0 million of goodwill, $9.1 million of property, plant and equipment and other assets, and $1.5 million of intangible assets (see Notes 1 and 4 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements).

Non-operating Income (Expense)

Investment income decreased to $1.3 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 from $4.4 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2019. During the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we received dividend income from LoJack Mexico and a gain resulting from fair value adjustment of our previously held interest in LoJack Mexico, which did not reoccur in the current fiscal year. Additionally, we had a lower level of invested funds during the nine months ended November 30, 2020, due in part to the repayment of our 2020 Convertible Notes in the first quarter of the current fiscal year, and earned lower rates of interest on those invested funds.

Interest expense decreased to $11.8 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 from $16.0 million for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 primarily due to the 2020 Convertible Notes maturing in May 2020. Interest expense for the nine months ended November 30, 2020 also included interest paid for the $20.0 million borrowing under our revolving line of credit in May 2020, which we fully repaid on November 19, 2020.

During the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we recognized a loss of $2.4 million on extinguishment of debt on the repurchase of $94.9 million of our 2020 Convertible Notes in October and November 2019.


Overall Profitability Measures

Net Income (Loss):

GAAP-basis net loss in the nine months ended November 30, 2020 was $47.6 million as compared to a net loss of $23.5 million in the nine months ended November 30, 2019. The $24.1 million increase in the net loss was primarily due to the impairment loss of $22.6 million and $13.1 million decrease in gross profit, partially offset by lower operating expenses as described above.

Adjusted EBITDA for Software & Subscription Services increased by $9.2 million compared to the same period last year primarily due increased revenue as well as higher gross margins and lower operating expenses as we further integrate acquired businesses. Adjusted EBITDA for Telematics Products and LoJack U.S. SVR Products in the nine months ended November 30, 2020 decreased by $15.5 million and $2.4 million compared to the same period last year, respectively. The declines in both segments were primarily due to a decline in revenue resulting from decreased sales volume partially offset by operating expense savings as we implemented certain cost containment measures, both in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic as described above. Adjusted EBITDA for Corporate Expenses remained consistent year-over-year.

See Note 15 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for information related to Adjusted EBITDA by reportable segments and a reconciliation to GAAP-basis net income (loss).

Income Tax Provision

We evaluate our estimated annual ETR on a quarterly basis based on current and forecasted operating results. The relationship between our income tax provision or benefit and our pretax book income or loss can vary significantly from period to period considering, among other factors, the overall level of pretax book income or loss and changes in the blend of jurisdictional income or loss that is taxed at different rates and changes in valuation allowances. Consequently, our ETR may fluctuate significantly period to period and may make quarterly comparisons less than meaningful.

An income tax expense of $0.8 million was recorded for the nine months ended November 30, 2019,2020, compared to an income tax provisionbenefit of $0.5$6.2 million in the same period last year. The change$7.0 million increase in tax expense was primarily driven by a pre-tax loss in the current year and a reversalperiod which did not result in an income tax benefit due to the recording of a valuation allowance against foreign tax credits, partially offset by a one-time discrete tax charge related to net equity based compensation “shortfalls” and a restructuring of foreign operations during the nine months ended November 30, 2019. Our effective tax rate was 21.4% and 5.5% for the nine months ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

As of November 30, 2019, we had approximately $25.8 million in U.S. net deferred income tax assets. The net deferred income tax assets include approximately $7.8 million and $2.4 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards and approximately $11.3 million and $7.4 million federal and state tax credits, respectively. These deferred income tax assets can be used to reduce our taxable income and income taxes payable in future periods. Many of these net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits will expire if they are not used within certain periods. Based on our historical three-year cumulative income and certain tax planning strategies we continue to believe that our net deferred income tax assets will more likely than not be utilized before their expiration. We continue to closely monitor all available evidence in considering the amount of valuation allowance that is required on our U.S. net deferred tax assets.assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Consistent with fiscal 2019,2020, our primary recurring cash needs have been for working capital purposes and capital expenditures. We have historically funded our principal business activities through cash flows generated from operations. As we continue to grow our customer base and increase our revenues, there will be a need for working capital in the future. Our immediate sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and our revolving credit facility. As of November 30, 2019,2020, we have $103.6$91.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities and $50 million available under our revolving credit facility. During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we repurchased $95 million of our 2020 Convertible Notes. We expect to settle the $27.6 million remaining 2020 Convertible Notes due May 2020 with cash. Additionally, we expect to continue to finance our operations with cash on hand and cash generated from operations.

On March 30, 2018, we entered into a revolving credit facility with J.P. MorganJPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. that providesprovided for borrowings of up to $50.0$50 million. ThisOn March 27, 2020, we entered into an amendment of the revolving credit facility expires on March 30, 2020 and we are currently in discussion with J.P. Morgan to extend the term for at least 12 months. At our election, theto March 30, 2022. Borrowings under this revolving credit facility bear interest at either a Prime or LIBOR-based variable rate plus an applicable margin, or at the greater of the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate plus an applicable margin rate andas selected by us on a one-month LIBOR-based variable rate plus an applicable margin rate (each as defined in the Credit Agreement), in each case determined based on our senior leverage ratio from time to time.periodic basis. This revolving credit facility contains financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum level of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other noncash charges (EBITDA) and minimum debt coverage ratios. There were no borrowings outstanding on thisIn May 2020, we borrowed $20 million under the revolving credit facility, atwhich was fully repaid on November 30, 2019.

As described in Note 2 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, in February 2019, we acquired Tracker UK for $13.1 million. In March 2019, we completed the acquisition of 87.5% LoJack Mexico shares for $14.3 million. In April 2019, we acquired Synovia for $49.8 million. We funded these acquisitions from cash on hand. As part of the Synovia acquisition, we assumed the rights and obligations from the Synovia revenue assignments as described in Note 7. The revenues recognized from this arrangement of $5.0 million were considered a non-cash financing activity for the nine months ended November 30, 2019.19, 2020.

We are a defendant in various legal proceedings, including the Omega patent infringement claim, involving intellectual property claims and contract disputes in which the final resolutions have not been determined at this time. In connection with these matters, we may be required to enter into license agreements or other settlement arrangements that require us to make significant payments in the future. While it is not feasible to predict with certainty the outcome of these legal proceedings, based on currently available information, we believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters would not have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Cash flows from operating activities

 

Cash flows from operating activities consist of net income (loss) adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, intangible asset amortization, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of discount and debt issue costs, deferred income taxes, impairment loss and equity in net lossamortization of affiliate,certain revenue assignment arrangements and the effect of changes in components of working capital.

 

Our cash flow from operating activities are attributable to our net income (loss) as well as how well we manage our working capital, which is dictated by the volume of products we purchase from our manufacturers or suppliers and then sell to our customers along with the payment and collection terms that we negotiate with them.

 

We purchase a majority of our products from significant suppliers located in Asia, that generally provide us 60-day payment terms for products purchased. We are currently reliant upon these suppliers for products. Although we believe that we can obtain products from other sources, the loss of a significant supplier could have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations as the products that are being purchased may not be available on similar terms from another supplier.

 

Our significant customers are located in the United States and certain foreign countries. We believe that our relationships with our key customers are very good and that these customers are in good financial condition. We generally grant credit to our customers based on their financial viability and our historical collection experience with them. We typically require payment from them within 30 to 4560 days of our invoice date with a few exceptions that extend the credit terms uptoup to 90 days.


For the nine months ended November 30, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $24.3 million and net loss was $47.6 million. Our non-cash expenses, comprised principally of depreciation, intangible asset amortization, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of debt discount and issue costs, impairment losses and deferred income taxes totaled $65.1 million. These non-cash expenses are partially offset by non-cash revenues of $4.9 million related to acquired revenue assignment arrangements. Changes in operating assets and liabilities generated a $11.7 million cash inflow, primarily driven by changes in working capital including an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, decrease in inventories and accounts receivable and partially offset by an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets.  

For the nine months ended November 30, 2019, net cash provided by operating activities was $3.3 million and net loss was $23.5 million. Our non-cash expenses, comprised principally of depreciation, intangible asset amortization, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of debt discount and issue costs, and deferred income taxes totaled $44.4 million. These non-cash expenses are partially offset by non-cash revenues of $5.0 million related to the Synoviaacquired revenue assignment arrangements and $2.4 million losses incurred from repurchase of the 2020 Convertible Notes. Changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of the effects of our acquisitions, resulted in a $15.0 million cash outflow, primarily driven by changes in working capital including an increase in accounts receivable and inventory, and decrease in accounts payable.

For the nine months ended November 30, 2018, net cash provided by operating activities was $48.1 million. Net income was $7.1 million, which was primarily attributable to $15.8 million cash received from the settlement with a former supplier of LoJack that was realized as non-operating income during the period. We received the remaining $2.5 million in installments in the fourth quarter ending February 28, 2019. Our non-cash items, comprised principally of depreciation, intangible assets amortization, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of convertible debt issue costs and discount, loss on extinguishment of debt, deferred income taxes and equity in net loss of our affiliate and non-cash assigned revenues totaled $34.0 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities created a $5.6 million source of cash, primarily driven by changes in working capital including an increase in deferred revenue and decrease in inventory but partially offset by an increase in prepaid expense and decrease in accounts payable. The increases in our working capital accounts were attributable to an increase in sales volume in the most recent quarter.

Cash flow from investing activities

 

For the nine months ended November 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, our net cash used in investing activities was $62.3$11.1 million and $17.1$62.3 million, respectively. In each of these periods, our primary investing activities consisted of the purchase and sale of marketable securities in accordance with our corporate investment policy as well as capital expenditures. During the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we also acquired Synovia and LoJack Mexico for $48.9 million and $12.7 million, net of cash acquired, respectively.

 

We expect that we will make additional capital expenditures in the future, including the further build-out of our corporate offices and IT infrastructure, and the devices that we lease to customers on the Synoviaunder subscription agreements. All of these will be doneagreements in order to support the future growth of our business.

Cash flow from financing activities

 

For the nine months ended November 30, 20192020 and 2018,2019, our net cash (used in) or provided byused in financing activities was $(95.5)$28.3 million and $108.6$95.5 million, respectively. In each of these periods, we havehad payments for taxes related to the net share settlement of vested equity awards and the proceeds from the exercise of stock options and contributions to ESPP.our employee stock purchase plan. During the nine months ended November 30, 2020, we repaid our 2020 Convertible Notes of $27.6 million, as well as borrowed and repaid $20.0 million from our revolving credit facility. During the nine months ended November 30, 2019, we entered into separate, privately negotiated purchase agreements to repurchase approximately $94.9 million in aggregate principal amount of theseconvertible notes for $94.7 million.

 

DuringWe continue to monitor the nine months endedimpact of COVID-19 on our operating results and liquidity as the pandemic has had an unfavorable impact on our financial condition and results of operations and we believe the pandemic may continue to have an unfavorable impact going forward. We have implemented certain cost containment and cash flow control measures especially in areas such as personnel, travel and other discretionary spend.

On December 16, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a plan for management to commence with the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR operations. We will continue supporting our existing customers and law enforcement partners to allow sufficient time for an orderly transition out of the business. We expect the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR operations to accelerate the secular decline in revenues for

32


these legacy products. The decline in revenues will be offset by expense reductions as contemplated in our wind down plan. These actions may have a negative impact on our consolidated cash flows.

As of November 30, 2018,2020, we had a net cash inflowand cash equivalents of $201.5$91.7 million and $50 million available under our existing revolving credit facility. Accordingly, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, funds anticipated to be generated from our operations and available borrowing on our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for at least the issuance of the 2025 Convertible Notes, partially offset by net cash outflow of $50.6 million for the repurchase of the 2020 Convertible Notes and $28.6 million repurchase of our common stock.     next 12 months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.

 

Contractual Cash Obligations

During the third quarter of fiscal 2020,2021, there were no significant changes to our estimates of future payments under our fixed contractual obligations and commitments as presented in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended February 28, 201929, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange CommissionSEC on May 1, 2019.6, 2020.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVEQUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Risk

We have international operations, giving rise to exposure to market risks from changes in currency exchange rates. A cumulative foreign currency translation loss of $0.8$0.3 million related to our foreign subsidiaries is included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the Stockholders' Equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet at November 30, 2019.2020. The aggregate foreign currency transaction exchange rate lossincome (loss) included in determining loss before income taxes and impairment loss and equity in net lossinvestment of affiliate were de minimus nfor both the nine months ended November 30, 20192020 and 2018.2019.

As our international operations grow, our risks associated with fluctuation in foreign currency rates will become greater, and we will continue to reassess our approach to managing this risk. In addition, currency fluctuations or a weakening U.S. dollar could increase the costs of our international expansion and operation.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal and liquidity while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we maintain our investment portfolio in a variety of available-for-sale fixed debt securities, including both government and corporate obligations and money market funds. Investments in fixed rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in prevailing interest rates. Due in part to these factors, we may suffer losses in principal if we need the funds prior to maturity and we choose to sell securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates or perceived credit risk related to the securities’ issuers.

As the majority of our investment portfolio has a short-term nature, we do not believe an immediate increase or decrease in interest rate would have a material effect on the fair market value of our portfolio, and therefore, we do not expect our operating results or cash flows to be materially affected by a sudden change in market interest rates.

We do not believe our cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities have significant risk of default or illiquidity. However, we cannot provide absolute assurance that in the future our investments will not be subject to adverse changes in market value. In addition, we maintain significant amounts of cash and cash equivalents at one or more financial institutions that are in excess of federally insured limits. We cannot be assured that we will not experience losses on these deposits.

Loans outstanding under our revolving credit facility bear interest at either euro currency rate plus a margin or the base rate (highest of (i) 0%, (ii) the rate of interest publicly announced by the Agent as its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City, (iii) the overnight bank funding rate as determined by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 0.50% and (iv) the LIBOR-based rate for a one-month interest period on such day plus 1%). An applicable margin is added based on the Company’s senior leverage ratio, ranging from 1.50% to 2.00% for base rate loans, and from 2.50% to 3.00% for Eurodollar loans. Changes in interest rate would impact our variable rate borrowings. As of November 30, 2020, there was no outstanding borrowing under our revolving credit facility.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, based on their evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.SEC.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with our initiative to integrate and enhance our global information technology systems and business processes, we initiated the phased implementation of a new ERP system. The ERP system is being implementedwhich started in phases throughout fiscal 2020 and continuingcontinues into fiscal 2021. The first phase was completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As a result of this implementation, we modified certain existing internal controls over financial reporting as well as implemented new controls and procedures related to the new ERP system. Other than the continued implementation of our ERP system, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d 15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the third quarter of fiscal 20202021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

See Note 18,16, Legal Proceedings, of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements above for information regarding the legal proceedings in which we are involved.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

The reader is referred to Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2019,29, 2020, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange CommissionSEC on May 1, 2019,6, 2020, for a discussion of factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or future results in addition to the risk factors below:

 

Ongoing changes to U.S. tax, tariff and import/export regulations mayThe Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic could have a negative effectmaterial adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) was first reported in Wuhan, China. Less than four months later, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The outbreak has spread globally, resulting in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines and travel restrictions, intended to control the spread of the virus. The COVID-19 outbreak has already caused severe global disruptions.

Additionally, we, and other companies, are taking precautions, such as requiring employees to work remotely and imposing travel restrictions. These restrictions, and future prevention and mitigation measures, are likely to have an adverse impact on global economic conditions financial markets and consumer confidence and spending, which could materially adversely affect the supply and demand for our business.

We import certain products and components from supplierssolutions. Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19 is likely to result in China. In 2018, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (the “USTR”) enacted tariffs on imports into the U.S. from China. In September 2018, the USTR enacted another tariff on the import of certain Chinese products with an additional combined import value of approximately $250 billion. On August 28, 2019, the USTR issued a notice increasing the rate of additional duty from 10% to 15% on the $300 billion worth of certain articles, and the first tranche of those duties went into effect at the 15% rate on September 1, 2019. The second tranche of those duties had been scheduled to go into effect on December 15, 2019. On December 13, 2019, the United States and China each confirmed that the two countries had reached a “Phase One” deal in the ongoing trade war, resulting in suspension of that second tranche. Although some of the products and components we import are affected by the tariffs, at this time, we do not expect these tariffs to have a materialsustained market turmoil, which could also negatively impact on our business, financial condition or resultsand cash flows. For example, as a result of operations. However, it is possible that further tariffs may be imposed on importsCOVID-19, we have experienced lower sales of our products, or thatLoJack U.S. SVR Products coupled with slower than anticipated market penetration of our business will be impacted by retaliatory trade measures taken by Chinatelematics solutions in the U.S. automotive dealership channel. Further, this pandemic could negatively affect our ability to sell-through our backlog. Our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our suppliers, contract manufacturers, and customers may suffer. Our customers could shift purchases to lower-priced or other countriesperceived value offerings during the pandemic-caused economic downturn as a result of various factors, including workforce reductions, reduced access to credit, and changes in federal economic policy. In particular, customers may become more conservative in response to these conditions and seek to reduce their purchases and inventories. Our results of operations depend upon, among other things, our ability to maintain and increase sales volume with our existing or future tariffs, causing uscustomers, our ability to raise prices or make changes toattract new consumers, and the financial condition of our operations, any of which could havecustomers. Decreases in demand for our products and solutions without a negative impactcorresponding decrease in costs would put downward pressure on our revenue or operatingmargins and would negatively impact our financial results.

 

Additionally,Governmental organizations, such as the announcementU.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state and local governments, have recommended and/or imposed increased community-based interventions, including event cancellations, social distancing measures, and restrictions on gatherings of more than ten people. As discussed, significant government measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines and travel restrictions have been implemented and continue to be in effect, and in the Referendumfuture, government authorities may impose similar and/or additional restrictions on people’s movement, public gatherings and businesses. The extent of the U.K.’s Membership of the European Union (referred to as Brexit), advising for the exit of the U.K. from the European Union, could cause disruptions to and create uncertainty surrounding our business, particularly given our recent efforts to expand our business throughout Europe through our acquisition of Tracker UK. Brexit could affect our relationships with our existing and future customers, suppliers and employees, which could in turn have an adverseCOVID-19’s effect on our business,operational and financial results and operations.

We may experience significant disruptions in our operations resulting from our enterprise resource planning system initiatives.

Weperformance will depend on our information technology systems forfuture developments, including the efficient functioningduration, spread and intensity of our global business, including accounting, billing, data storage, purchasingthe outbreak, all of which are uncertain and inventory management. In orderdifficult to integrate and enhance our global operations, we initiatedpredict considering the phased implementation of an ERP system across our global operating locations to support our operations. The implementation of this ERP system required, and will continue to require, the investment of human and financial resources. We have incurred and expect to incur additional expenses as we continue to implement, enhance and develop our ERP system.rapidly evolving landscape. As a result, it is not currently possible to ascertain the overall impact of COVID-19 on our ERP initiatives, we may encounter difficulties in operating our business, whichbusiness. However, if the pandemic continues to evolve into a severe worldwide health crisis, the disease could disrupt our operations, including our ability to timely ship and track customer orders, determine inventory requirements, manage our supply chain, manage customer billing and adequately service our customers. If we experience significant disruptions resulting from our ERP initiatives, our business and operations could be disrupted, including our ability to report accurate and timely financial results. Accordingly, such events may disrupt or reduce the efficiency of our global operations and have a material adverse effect on our operatingbusiness, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.flows and adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.

Repurposing of satellite spectrum by adjacent operators of L-band spectrum for terrestrial services could interfere with our GPS IoT products and services.

In 2011, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) granted Ligado Networks (then known as Lightsquared) (“Ligado”), a waiver to convert its L-band satellite spectrum to terrestrial use, including a 10 MHz band close to the spectrum that we use for all of our Global Positioning System (“GPS”) products and services. That waiver was subsequently suspended in 2012 due to concerns about potential interference to GPS operations. Ligado sought another waiver in 2015, that it then amended in 2018, to modify its L-band mobile satellite service network with a terrestrial-only proposal designed to address GPS industry-wide concerns. In April 2020, the FCC granted Ligado’s waiver request. We oppose this waiver grant out of concern for the interference that we believe Ligado’s proposed operations would cause to our IoT GPS devices. Ligado’s operations pursuant to the waiver would result in terrestrial use of L-band spectrum and, such operations may interfere with, and harmfully affect, the performance of the Global Navigation Satellite System (“GNSS”) receivers in our IoT GPS devices that operate in the 1559-1610MHz band, which is adjacent to, and within range of, the L-band downlink allocation for GPS operations. Ligado’s L-band terrestrial operations could impact our operations and impose costs on us to retrofit or replace affected GNSS receivers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.


We are subject to risks associated with debt financing.

Our revolving credit facility contains, among other things, certain negative and affirmative covenants including financial covenants that require us to maintain a minimum level of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash charges (Adjusted EBITDA) to interest ratio, a minimum senior indebtedness ratio and a total indebtedness coverage ratio, all measured on a quarterly basis. While we have not previously breached and are not currently in breach of these or any other covenants contained in our credit agreement, there can be no guarantee that we will not breach these covenants in the future.

Additionally, our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control, including the COVID-19 pandemic. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under the credit agreement and related credit documents, which could cause all of the outstanding indebtedness under our revolving credit facility to become immediately due and payable. These covenants could also limit our ability to seek capital through the incurrence of new indebtedness or, if we are unable to meet our obligations, require us to repay any outstanding amounts with sources of capital we may otherwise use to fund our business.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

The following disclosure is included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in lieu of filing a Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to disclosure required under Item 2.05 thereof.

On December 16, 2020, our Board of Directors approved a plan for management to commence with the wind down of the LoJack U.S. SVR operations. This business unit has historically provided stolen vehicle recovery (SVR) services and products operating on a radio frequency allocated by the FCC for domestic automotive dealerships. These products and related services have been provided predominately as a hardware-based offering that no longer aligns with our core strategy. As part of our commitment to public safety, we will continue supporting our existing customers and law enforcement partners to allow sufficient time for an orderly transition out of the business. A precise date for completing the wind down has not yet been fixed.

As part of the wind down, we expect the secular decline in revenues from the legacy LoJack U.S. SVR product sales to accelerate over the next three to six months. To offset the impact of declining revenues, we will execute various cost reduction measures in order to achieve cost savings beginning in fiscal year 2022. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, we are anticipating up to $2.0 million non-recurring cash charges related to severance and personnel costs. This estimate is preliminary and subject to a number of assumptions and risks, and our actual results may vary. We will also incur various contract termination and other related costs as we proceed with the wind down, which we are unable to estimate at this time.

Our evaluation of various alternative courses of action that we may take related to the wind down is in progress and we may incur additional costs as a result of such actions. Therefore, we are unable to make a good faith determination of an estimate or range of estimates of other major types of costs that we may incur in connection with the wind down called for by paragraph (b) of Item 2.05 of Form 8-K, nor are we able to make a good faith determination of an estimate or range of estimates called for by paragraphs (c) and (d) of Item 2.05 of Form 8-K.  We undertake to update this disclosure upon determination of such estimates or ranges of estimates.
