NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION | |
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of RiceBran Technologies and subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for reporting on Form 10-Q; therefore, as permitted under these rules, certain footnotes and other financial information included in audited financial statements were condensed or omitted. The interim financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the interim results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. | |
These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, included in that Annual Report on Form 10-K, contains a going concern explanatory paragraph in which our independent registered public accounting firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. | |
The interim results reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year, or any other future period, and have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern based on the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. | |
Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts reported for the prior year to achieve consistent presentation with the current year. | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes current revenue recognition guidance and most industry-specific guidance. Under the new standard we will recognize revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue from a contract that contains multiple performance obligations will be allocated to each performance obligation generally on a relative standalone selling price basis. The guidance is effective for our annual and interim periods beginning in 2017. Early adoption is prohibited. We have not yet determined the impact that the new guidance will have on our results of operations and financial position and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017. |

NOTE 2. BUSINESS | |
We are a human food ingredient, nutritional supplement and animal nutrition company focused on value-added processing and marketing of healthy, natural and nutrient dense products derived from raw rice bran (RRB), an underutilized by-product of the rice milling industry. Using our bio-refining business model, we apply our proprietary and patented technologies and intellectual properties to convert RRB into numerous high value products including stabilized rice bran (SRB), rice bran oil (RBO), defatted rice bran (DRB), RiBalance (a complete rice bran nutritional package derived from further processing of SRB), RiSolubles (a highly nutritious, carbohydrate and lipid rich fraction of SRB), RiFiber (a fiber rich derivative of SRB), ProRyza rice bran protein-based products and a variety of other valuable derivatives extracted from these core products. Our target markets are natural food, functional food, nutraceutical supplement and animal nutrition manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers, both domestically and internationally. | |
We have two reportable operating segments: (i) USA segment, which manufactures and distributes SRB in various granulations along with Stage II products (described below) and derivatives and formulates and co-packages products and (ii) Brazil segment, which extracts crude RBO and DRB from rice bran, which are then further processed into fully refined rice bran oil for sale internationally and in Brazil, compounded animal nutrition products and a number of valuable human food and animal nutrition products derivatives and co-products. In addition we incur corporate and other expenses not directly attributable to operating segments, which include costs related to our corporate staff, general and administrative expenses including public company expenses, intellectual property, professional fees, and other expenses. No corporate allocations, including interest, are made to the operating segments. | |
The combined operations of our USA and Brazil segments encompass our bio-refining approach to processing RRB into various high quality, value-added constituents and finished products. Over the past decade, we have developed and optimized our proprietary bio-refining processes to support the production of healthy, natural, hypoallergenic, gluten free, and non-genetically modified ingredients and supplements for use in human meats, baked goods, cereals, coatings, health foods, nutritional supplements, nutraceuticals and high-end animal nutrition and health products. | |
The USA segment produces SRB inside two supplier rice mills in California and one owned facility in Louisiana. A facility located in Lake Charles, Louisiana has been idle since May 2009. The USA segment also includes our Dillon, Montana Stage II facility which produces our Stage II products RiSolubles (a highly nutritious, carbohydrate and lipid rich fraction of SRB), RiFiber (a fiber rich derivative of SRB), RiBalance (a complete rice bran nutritional package derived from further processing SRB), and ProRyza, a family of protein products. Stage II refers to the proprietary processes run at our Dillon, Montana facility and includes products produced at that facility using our patented processes. In January 2014, we completed the acquisition of H&N Distribution Inc., now operating as Healthy Natural, Inc. (H&N), which has been integrated into our USA segment. H&N is a formulator and co-packer of products targeted at customers in the direct marketing, internet sales and retail distribution markets, which operates a facility in Irving, Texas. H&N serves the natural products, nutritional supplement and nutraceutical and functional food (NFF) sectors. We acquired H&N as part of our strategy to vertically integrate our business in order to leverage our proprietary and patented technologies. Certain manufacturing facilities included in our USA segment have proprietary processing equipment and patented technology for the stabilization and further processing of rice bran into finished products. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, approximately 84% of USA segment revenue was from sales of human food products and the remainder was from sales of animal nutrition products. | |
The Brazil segment consists of the consolidated operations of Nutra SA, whose only operating subsidiary is Irgovel, located in Pelotas, Brazil. Irgovel manufactures RBO and DRB products for both the human ingredient and animal nutrition markets in Brazil and internationally. In refining RBO to an edible grade, several co-products are obtained. One such product is distilled fatty acids, a valuable raw material for the detergent industry. Irgovel recently started production of rice lecithin, which has application in human nutrition, animal nutrition and industrial applications. DRB is compounded with a number of other ingredients to produce complex animal nutrition products which are packaged and sold under Irgovel brands in the Brazilian market, sold as a raw material for further processing into human food ingredients or sold in bulk into the animal nutrition markets in Brazil and neighboring countries. In 2013, approximately 45% of Brazil segment product revenue was from sales of RBO products and 55% was from sales of DRB products. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, approximately 36% of Brazil segment product revenue was from sales of RBO products and the remainder was from sales of DRB products, however Irgovel was shut down for a large portion of these periods to complete the final stages of a capital expansion project, and we expect product mix to return to historical levels in future periods. |

NOTE 3. LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN | |
In 2013 and the first nine months of 2014, we continued to experience losses and negative cash flows from operations which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We believe that we now have adequate financial resources to operate our business for the next year and we will be able to obtain additional funds to operate our business, should it be necessary, however, there can be no assurances that our efforts will prove successful. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. | |
We closed an underwritten public offering in December 2013 and completed stock and warrant offerings in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 which together provided us with net proceeds in excess of $20 million, allowing us to make additional investments in our Brazilian operations and provide cash for corporate purposes. In January 2014, we completed the acquisition of H&N, the operations of which is generating operating cash flows. Our Brazilian subsidiary, Irgovel, shut down operations in the first quarter of 2014 to complete the final stages of a major capital expansion. The shutdown, capital expenditures and restart expenses have been a drain on cash. Operations at Irgovel started again in the second quarter of 2014. Irgovel is expected to begin operating at its newly increased capacity in 2015. We expect Irgovel to begin to generate cash from operations in 2015. |

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to RiceBran Technologies shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during all periods presented. Shares underlying options, warrants and convertible debt are excluded from the basic EPS calculation but are considered in calculating diluted EPS. Nonvested shares that vest solely on the basis of a service condition are not included in the denominator of the computation of basic EPS. | |||||||||||||||||
Diluted EPS is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to RiceBran Technologies shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the impact of assumed exercises and conversions is dilutive. The dilutive effect of outstanding options and warrants is calculated using the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of outstanding convertible debt is calculated using the if-converted method. Nonvested shares that vest solely on the basis of a service condition are included in the denominator of the computation of diluted EPS during their requisite service period under the treasury stock method. | |||||||||||||||||

In January 2014, we purchased all of the outstanding shares of H&N for $2.0 million in cash ($1.8 million paid in January 2014 and $0.2 million payable upon the resolution of certain contingencies) and promissory notes in the face amount of $3.3 million, subject to working capital adjustments. H&N is an Irving, Texas-based formulator and co-packer of products targeted at customers in the direct marketing, internet sales and retail distribution markets. H&N serves the natural products, nutritional supplement and nutraceutical and functional food (NFF) sectors. We acquired H&N as part of our strategy to vertically integrate our business in order to leverage our proprietary and patented technologies. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. The results of H&N’s operations are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning January 2, 2014, and are included in our USA segment. | |||||
In the first quarter of 2014, we incurred $0.3 million of acquisition-related costs which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the preliminary aggregate purchase price allocation, the consideration transferred to acquire H&N, as well as the amounts of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value as of the January 2, 2014, acquisition date (in thousands). | |||||

The terms of the convertible notes payable are further discussed in Note 10. The fair value of trade receivables at January 2, 2014, was $0.1 million which equaled the gross amount receivable. The initial accounting for the acquisition is not complete, and is subject to change primarily for certain working capital adjustments provided for in the agreement and conclusions with regard to identified intangibles. Preliminarily, we have assigned a $3.8 million value to a customer relationship intangible and we are amortizing that intangible over a three year period as follows: $1.7 million in 2014, $1.3 million in 2015 and $0.8 million in 2016. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recognized $0.4 million and $1.4 million of amortization expense in the USA segment related to this intangible. | |||||
Our consolidated revenues include $3.0 million and $9.3 million of H&N revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. After making a reasonable effort, we have been unable to determine the underlying information required to prepare pro forma information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, as if the H&N acquisition had occurred January 1, 2013. |

In December 2010, we entered into a membership interest purchase agreement (MIPA) with AF Bran Holdings-NL LLC and AF Bran Holdings LLC (Investors). As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Investors interest was 37.4% and 45.9%. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we invested an additional $1.5 million and $7.2 million in Nutra SA. We invested an additional $1.0 million in Nutra SA between October 1, 2014, and November 14, 2014. The Investors’ share of Nutra SA’s net income (loss) increases (decreases) redeemable noncontrolling interest. We are restricted from competing with Nutra SA and Irgovel in Brazil as further described in the MIPA. | |||||||||||||||||
Redeemable noncontrolling interest in Nutra SA is recorded in temporary equity, above the equity section and after liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, because the Investors have drag along rights which provide the Investors the ability to force a sale of Nutra SA assets in the future. We have assessed the likelihood of the Investors exercising these rights as less than probable at September 30, 2014. We will continue to evaluate the probability of the Investors exercising their drag along rights each reporting period. We will begin to accrete the redeemable noncontrolling interest up to fair value if and when it is probable the Investors will exercise these rights. | |||||||||||||||||
Under the limited liability company agreement for Nutra SA (LLC agreement), as amended, any units held by the Investors beginning January 1, 2014, accrue a yield at 4% (the Yield). Commencing with the first quarter of 2014, Nutra SA must make distributions to the Investors quarterly in the amount equal to the previously accrued and unpaid Yield plus any additional distributions owed to the Investors, to the extent there is distributable cash, as defined in the LLC agreement. As of September 30, 2014, our balance sheet includes an other liability of $0.4 million for Yield accumulated and unpaid. Nutra SA has made no Yield payments. | |||||||||||||||||
Following the payment of the Yield, Nutra SA must distribute all distributable cash (as defined in the LLC Agreement) to the members on March 31 of each year as follows: (i) first, to the Investors in an amount equal to 2.3 times the Investors’ capital contributions, less the aggregate amount of non-Yield distributions paid to the Investors, (ii) second, to us in an amount equal to twice the capital contributions made by us, less the aggregate amount of distributions paid to us; and (iii) third, to us and the Investors in proportion to our respective membership interests. | |||||||||||||||||
Under the LLC agreement, the business of Nutra SA is to be conducted by the manager, currently our CEO, subject to the oversight of the management committee. The management committee is comprised of three of our representatives and two Investor representatives. Upon an event of default or a qualifying event, we will no longer control the management committee and the management committee will include three Investor representatives and two of our representatives. In addition, following an event of default or a qualifying event, a majority of the members of the management committee may replace the manager of Nutra SA. | |||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, there have been no unwaived events of default. Events of default, as defined in the MIPA and the October 2013 amendment of investment agreements, are: | |||||||||||||||||
· | A Nutra SA business plan deviation, defined as the occurrence in 2014 of a 20% unfavorable variation in two out of three of the following: (i) revenue, (ii) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) or (iii) debt, | ||||||||||||||||
· | A Nutra SA EBITDA default, which is defined as the failure in 2014 to achieve 85% of planned EBITDA for three consecutive quarters, | ||||||||||||||||
· | A material problem, which is defined as a material problem in a facility in 2014 (unrelated to changes in law, weather, etc.) likely to cause a Nutra SA business plan deviation or Nutra SA EBITDA default, which results in damages not at least 80% covered by insurance proceeds, | ||||||||||||||||
· | Failure of Irgovel to meet minimum quarterly processing targets, or | ||||||||||||||||
· | Failure of Irgovel to achieve EBITDA of at least $4.0 million in any year beginning in 2015. | ||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, there have been no qualifying events. The LLC agreement defines a qualifying event as any event prior to September 16, 2014, which results, or will result, in (i) a person or group of persons exercising the right to appoint members to our board of directors holding one third or more of the votes of all board members, (ii) the sale, exchange, pledge or use as guarantee of one half or more of our ownership interest in Nutra SA to a third party or (iii) the bankruptcy of RiceBran Technologies or Nutra SA. | |||||||||||||||||
The Investors have drag along rights, the right to force the sale of all Nutra SA assets after the earlier of January 1, 2015, or upon the failure to process a certain level of rice bran in the second and third quarters of 2014. The right terminates upon the occurrence of certain events (a $50 million Nutra SA initial public offering or a change of control, as defined). We may elect to exercise a right of first refusal to purchase the Investors’ interest instead of proceeding to a sale. | |||||||||||||||||
In evaluating whether we are the primary beneficiary of Nutra SA, we considered the matters which could be put to a vote of the members. Until there is an event of default or a qualifying event, the Investors’ rights and abilities, individually or in the aggregate, do not allow them to substantively participate in the operations of Nutra SA. The Investors do not currently have the ability to dissolve Nutra SA or otherwise force the sale of all its assets. They do have drag along rights in the future. We will continue to evaluate our ability to control Nutra SA each reporting period. | |||||||||||||||||
Cash provided by operations in our Brazil segment is generally unavailable for distribution to our Corporate and USA segments pursuant to the terms of the LLC agreement. |

Stock and Warrant Offerings | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In January 2014, an underwriter exercised its overallotment rights related to our fourth quarter 2013 public offering. We issued and sold 162,586 shares of common stock for $5.24 per share and publicly traded warrants to purchase 162,586 shares of common stock ($6.55 per share exercise price and December 2018 expiration) for $0.01 per underlying share. In connection with the overallotment exercise, the underwriters on the offering also received a warrant for the purchase of 8,130 shares of common stock (exercise price of $6.55 per share and December 2018 expiration). The net proceeds from the overallotment exercise were $0.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other cash offering expenses of $0.1 million, and are included in equity. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The first closing on a private placement offering occurred in March 2014. We issued convertible notes in the principal amount of $4.9 million and warrants for the purchase of up to 1,399,614 shares of common stock ($5.25 per share exercise price and March 2019 expiration). We contributed $1.0 million of the $4.3 million proceeds, net of $0.6 million of costs, to Nutra SA, and intend to use the remainder of the proceeds for capital projects in the United States and for general corporate purposes. On a fully diluted basis, at issuance we had available shares of common stock for 15.8% of the shares underlying the Warrants. To the extent there were available shares, we allocated proceeds to equity for the warrants ($0.4 million). We recorded a derivative liability for the warrants to the extent there were not available shares ($5.0 million). We recorded $1.1 million in financing expense at closing representing the excess of the amounts recorded for the warrants over the net proceeds from the offering. The convertible notes issued in the offering were initially recorded with a discount equal to the face amount of the notes. As discussed below, in Debt Conversions section, these notes converted in May 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The second closing on a private placement offering occurred in May 2014. We issued convertible notes in the principal amount of $1.2 million and warrants for the purchase of up to 357,075 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $5.25 per share and a May 2019 expiration. We contributed $0.5 million of the $1.1 million proceeds, net of $0.2 million of costs, to Nutra SA, and intend to use the remainder of the proceeds for capital projects in the United States and for general corporate purposes. On a fully diluted basis, at issuance we had no available shares of common stock for the shares underlying these warrants and, as a result, recorded a derivative liability for the fair value of these warrants at issuance ($2.0 million). We recorded $1.0 million in financing expense at closing, representing the excess of the amounts recorded for the warrants over the net proceeds from the offering. The convertible notes issued in the offering were initially recorded with a discount equal to the face amount of the notes. As discussed below, in Debt Conversions section, these notes converted in May 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In June 2014, we issued and sold 1,417,500 shares of common stock for $5.29 per share and warrants to purchase 708,750 shares of common stock (exercise price of $5.87 per share and June 2019 expiration) for $0.01 per underlying share. The underwriters on the offering also received a warrant for the purchase of 85,050 shares of common stock (exercise price of $6.625 per share and June 2019 expiration). The net proceeds from the offering of $6.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other cash offering expenses of $0.7 million, are included in common stock. We contributed $3.0 million of the proceeds to Nutra SA, used $0.8 million of the proceeds to pay all amounts due under the USA segment senior revolving note. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In October 2014, we issued and sold 1,181,695 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,181,695 shares of common stock (exercise price of $5.27 per share, exercisable beginning April 2015, April 2020 expiration) for $5.40 per unit, where a unit is one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The underwriters on the offering also received a warrant for the purchase of 94,536 shares of common stock (exercise price of $5.27 per share and October 2019 expiration). The estimated net proceeds from the offering of $5.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated cash offering expenses of $0.6 million, will be included in common stock. We intend to use the proceeds for investments in USA segment capital projects and to fund Brazil working capital needs. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Equity Incentive Plan | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The board of directors adopted our 2014 equity incentive plan in August 2014, after the plan was approved by shareholders. A total of 1,600,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the plan. Under the terms of the plan, we may grant options to purchase common stock and shares of common stock to officers, directors, employees or consultants providing services on such terms as are determined by the board of directors. Our board of directors administers the plan, determines vesting schedules on plan awards and may accelerate the vesting schedules for award recipients. The options granted under the plan have terms of up to 10 years. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In the third quarter of 2014, in addition to granting the options listed in the summary of stock option and warrant activity above, we issued common stock to directors and officers at a grant date fair value of $4.91 per share. We issued 52,412 shares which vest in August 2015 (or at the next annual shareholder meeting date if earlier), 44,026 shares which vested in August 2014, 64,938 shares which vest in equal installments over 36 months, and 120,244 shares which vest in August 2017. In the third quarter of 2014, we recognized $0.3 million in compensation. As of September 30, 2014, we expect to recognize the remaining $1.0 million of unrecognized compensation over a weighted average period of 2.4 years. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Issuance of Shares to Former Warrant Holders and Note Holder | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In the fourth quarter of 2013, the holders of our subordinated convertible notes agreed to amend their notes to reduce the interest rate to 5% from 10%, change the maturity of the notes to July 2016 (if there was a different maturity date) and to remove the conversion feature and antidilution protections upon the closing of an equity raise in excess of $7.0 million (Modification). Concurrently, certain warrant holders agreed to exchange warrants to purchase 496,060 shares of common stock for the future issuance of 1,554,734 shares of our common stock (Exchange). Most of the warrants impacted (warrants to purchase 441,395 shares) were warrants issued to the note holders when their notes were originally issued and had contained antidilution protections which caused them to be carried at fair value on our balances sheets. The former warrant holders committed to exchange their warrants, which were cancelled upon our closing an equity raise in the fourth quarter of 2013. The fair market value of the shares was recorded in common stock in the fourth quarter of 2013. We issued the shares, as required, after shareholders approved an increase in our authorized shares of common stock in May 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In the fourth quarter of 2013, we also issued $500,000 of notes to a holder and agreed to issue the holder 134,250 shares of common stock. The fair market value of the shares was recorded in common stock in the fourth quarter of 2013. We issued these shares, as required, after shareholders approved an increase in our authorized shares of common stock in May 2014. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Debt Conversions | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In connection with the January 2014 acquisition of H&N, we issued convertible promissory notes in the face amount of $3.3 million. The notes were due in equal quarterly payments commencing on March 31, 2015, and ending on December 31, 2018 and bore interest at 1% per year until January 2015, 5% per year from February 2015 until January 2016 and 10% per year after January 2016. We recorded the notes at their $2.2 million fair value and the conversion features at their $0.6 million fair value on the date of issuance. We accreted the notes at an effective interest rate of 18.9%, until the notes, and accumulated interest thereon, converted into 543,894 shares of common stock upon our issuance of shares to the former warrant holders in the Exchange. The notes converted in May 2014. Upon conversion, we recognized a $0.9 million loss on extinguishment for the difference between the fair value of the shares issued ($3.9 million) and the carrying amount of the notes ($2.4 million) and related conversion feature ($0.6 million). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The convertible notes issued in the March 2014 and May 2014 closings, due in July 2016, bore interest at 5% interest until the $6.2 million outstanding on the notes, including accumulated interest thereon (less than $0.1 million), automatically converted in May 2014, at a conversion price of $5.25, into 1,180,567 shares of common stock upon shareholders voting to approve an increase in our authorized shares of common stock. When the notes converted, we recognized interest expense of $6.2 million, to accrete the notes to their face value, and increased equity $6.2 million. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Warrants Reclassified to Equity | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Shares of available common stock increased in 2014 as a result of (i) the expiration of certain outstanding warrants and options and (ii) the 19,000,000 share increase in our authorized shares of common stock. As a result, during the second quarter of 2014, we transferred to equity the $8.9 million fair value of warrants previously classified as derivative liabilities solely due to a lack, on a fully-diluted basis, of available shares of common stock. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Warrants that Contain Antidilution Clauses | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, we have two warrant agreements outstanding (with one holder) that contain antidilution clauses. The related warrants are classified as derivative warrant liabilities in our balance sheets. Under the antidilution clauses contained in these warrants, in the event of equity issuances at prices below the exercise prices of these warrants, we may be required to lower the exercise price on these warrants and increase the number of shares underlying these warrants. Equity issuances may include issuances of our common stock, certain awards of options to employees, and issuances of warrants and/or other convertible instruments. |

USA Segment | |||||||||
See Note 10 for a description of the convertible notes payable issued in the first quarter of 2014 to the former shareholders of H&N and the private placement investors. As discussed further in Note 10, in May 2014, these instruments converted into shares of common stock and the senior revolving note was paid in full with the proceeds from the June 2014 stock and warrant offering. The senior revolving note was due in installments through October 2014. | |||||||||
Subordinated Notes | |||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, subordinated notes in the principal amount of $6.5 million remain outstanding. The notes bear interest of 5% per year, payable quarterly, and mature in July 2016. We are accreting the notes up to their face value at an average annual interest rate of 22.7%. In connection with the Modification discussed further in Note 10, during the fourth quarter of 2013, the holders of our subordinated convertible notes agreed to amend their notes to reduce the annual interest rate to 5% from 10%, change the maturity of the notes to July 2016 (if there was a different maturity date) and to remove the conversion feature and antidilution protections included in the notes. | |||||||||
Brazil Segment | |||||||||
All Brazil segment debt is denominated in the Brazilian Real (R$), except advances on export letters of credit which are denominated in U.S. Dollars. | |||||||||
Capital Expansion Loans | |||||||||
In December 2011, Irgovel entered into loan agreements with the Bank of Brazil. The annual interest rate on the loans is 6.5%, payable quarterly and the loans mature December 2021. Irgovel must make monthly principal payments under each of the loans. Irgovel used R$1.5 million of the proceeds for working capital purposes and the remainder for the purchase of equipment and machinery. | |||||||||
In July 2012, Irgovel entered into an agreement with the bank under which it borrowed R$1.7 million for the purchase of certain equipment at an annual interest rate of 5.5%. Interest is payable quarterly on the amounts outstanding and the maturity date of the loans is July 2019. Irgovel must make monthly principal payments under the loan. The loan is secured by the related equipment. | |||||||||
Working Capital Lines of Credit | |||||||||
Irgovel has working capital lines of credit secured by accounts receivable. The total amount of borrowing cannot exceed 30%-110% of the collateral, depending on the agreement. The annual interest rates on this debt range from 10.4% to 34.8%, and average 22.8%. Principal maturities of amounts outstanding extend through November 2016. | |||||||||
Advances on Export Letters of Credit | |||||||||
Irgovel obtains advances against certain accounts receivable backed by export letters of credit. The annual interest rates on these advances range from 5.9% to 10.0%, and average 8.1%. Principal maturities of amounts outstanding extend through March 2015. | |||||||||
Special Tax Programs | |||||||||
Irgovel has unsecured notes payable for Brazilian federal and social security taxes under special Brazilian government tax programs. During the third quarter of 2014, Irgovel’s debt under several notes was consolidated into one note and Irgovel financed an additional $0.9 million of taxes payable under the programs. Principal and interest payments are due monthly through January 2029. Interest on the notes is payable monthly at the Brazilian SELIC target rate, which was 11.0% at September 30, 2014. |

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | |
In addition to the matters discussed below, from time to time we are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. When applicable, we record accruals for contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. While the outcome of lawsuits and other proceedings against us cannot be predicted with certainty, in the opinion of management, individually or in the aggregate, no such lawsuits are expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations. Defense costs are expensed as incurred and are included in professional fees. | |
Irgovel Purchase | |
On August 28, 2008, former Irgovel stockholder David Resyng filed an indemnification suit against Irgovel, Osmar Brito and the remaining former Irgovel stockholders (Sellers), requesting: (i) the freezing of the escrow account maintained in connection with the transfer of Irgovel’s corporate control to us and the presentation of all documentation related to the transaction, and (ii) damages in the amount of the difference between (a) the sum received by David Resyng in connection with the judicial settlement agreement executed in the action for the partial dissolution of the limited liability company filed by David Resyng against Irgovel and the Sellers and (b) the amount received by the Sellers in connection with the sale of Irgovel’s corporate control to us, in addition to moral damages as determined in the court’s discretion. The amount of damage claimed by Mr. Resyng is approximately $3 million. | |
We believe that the filing of the above lawsuit is a fundamental default of the obligations undertaken by the Sellers under the Quotas Purchase Agreement for the transfer of Irgovel’s corporate control, executed by and among the Sellers and us on January 31, 2008 (Purchase Agreement). Consequently, we believe that the responsibility for any indemnity, costs and expenses incurred or that may come to be incurred by Irgovel and/or us in connection with the above lawsuit is the sole responsibility of the Sellers. | |
On February 6, 2009, the Sellers filed a collection lawsuit against us seeking payment of the second installment of the purchase price under the Purchase Agreement, which the Sellers allege is approximately $1.0 million. We have withheld payment of the second installment pending resolution of the Resyng lawsuit noted above. To date, only Irgovel has received formal legal notice. In addition, the Purchase Agreement requires that all disputes between us and the Sellers be adjudicated through arbitration. As part of the Purchase Agreement, $2.0 million was deposited into an escrow account to cover contingencies with the net remaining funds payable to the Sellers upon resolution of all contingencies. We believe any payout due to the lawsuit will be made out of the escrow account. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the balance in the escrow account was $1.9 million and is included in restricted cash in our balance sheets. There is an escrow liability related to the lawsuit in accrued expenses on our balance sheets. When the escrow account was funded, we established an accrued liability equal to the amount of the escrow for contingencies and the net balance due to the Sellers under the terms of the Purchase Agreement. As of September 30, 2014, after paying or accruing specific pre-acquisition liabilities, a balance of $1.6 million remains accrued to settle as yet unidentified contingencies. We believe that there is no additional material exposure as any amounts determined to be owed as a result of the above noted litigation and contingencies will be covered by the escrow account. | |
Diabco Life Sciences, LLC | |
In January 2012, we filed a complaint in the Superior Court of California, Sacramento County, seeking damages arising out of Diabco Life Sciences, LLC’s (Diabco) breach of a 2008 promissory note in the principal amount of $0.5 million. At trial in August 2013, Diabco stipulated that total damages through July 2013, including interest and late fees, amounted to $0.9 million. In September 2013, the court issued its tentative statement of decision indicating that judgment will be entered in our favor in the amount of $0.9 million as of July 2013, plus interest. In January 2014, the court issued its final judgment in the amount of $1.0 million. Diabco filed a notice of appeal which was dismissed in October 2014. We have no receivable from Diabco recorded in the accompanying financial statements, as recovery of the judgment is not reasonably assured. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT [Abstract] | ' | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT | ' | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
NOTE 14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their shorter maturities. As of September 30, 2014, the fair value of our USA segment debt (Level 3 measurement) is approximately $0.2 million higher than the $4.7 million carrying value of that debt, based on current market rates for similar debt with similar maturities. The fair value of our Brazil segment debt (Level 3 measurement) approximates the carrying value of that debt based on the current market rates for similar debt with similar maturities. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Certain assets and liabilities are presented in the financial statements at fair value. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis include derivative warrant and conversion liabilities. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis may include property. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
We assess the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
● | Level 1 – inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
● | Level 2 – inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, currency exchange rates and yield curves. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
● | Level 3 – inputs are not observable in the market and include management’s judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
For instruments measured using Level 3 inputs, a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances is disclosed. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The following tables summarize the fair values by input hierarchy of items measured at fair value on a recurring basis on our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Warrants accounted for as derivative liabilities are valued using the lattice model each reporting period and the resultant change in fair value is recorded in the statements of operations. The lattice model requires us to assess the probability of future issuance of equity instruments at a price lower than the current exercise price of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the treasury yield curve rate of instruments with the same term as the warrant. Additional assumptions that were used to calculate fair value follow. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Transactions with Baruch Halpern | |
Entities beneficially owned by Baruch Halpern, a director, invested $2.6 million in our subordinated convertible notes and related warrants prior to 2013. In all periods presented we paid less than $0.1 million of interest on subordinated notes beneficially owned by Mr. Halpern. The terms of the notes beneficially owned by Mr. Halpern were changed in the Modification. | |
In connection with the Exchange, warrants beneficially owned by Mr. Halpern for the purchase of up to 185,714 shares of common stock ($14.00 per share exercise price with a July 31, 2017 expiration), related to the subordinated convertible notes were cancelled in exchange for 634,679 shares of our common stock (with a fair value of $2.9 million at time of the Exchange). The shares were not required to be issued until after our shareholders approved an increase in our authorized shares of common stock, which occurred on May 30, 2014. | |
In connection with the Exchange, other warrants beneficially owned by Mr. Halpern for the purchase of up to 45,683 shares of common stock ($14.00 per share exercise prices and expirations between January 2017 and August 2017) were cancelled in exchange for 75,377 shares of our common stock (with a fair value of $0.3 million at time of the Exchange). The shares were not required to be issued until after our shareholders approved an increase in our authorized shares of common stock, which occurred on May 30, 2014. | |
Transactions with W. John Short | |
W. John Short, our chief executive officer and director, invested in our subordinated convertible notes and related warrants $50 thousand in January 2012 and $25 thousand in April 2013. In all periods presented, we paid less than $10 thousand of interest on subordinated notes beneficially owned by Mr. Short. In June 2013, Mr. Short made an election to be paid in stock, rather than cash, for interest accruing under the notes from February 2013 through June 2014. In connection with the election, in 2013 we issued a PIK warrant with 234 underlying shares of common stock, and increased the shares underlying Mr. Short’s convertible notes by 234 shares as payment for interest accruing under the convertible notes from February 2013 through October 2013. The terms of the notes beneficially owned by Mr. Short were impacted by the Modification. | |
In connection with the Exchange, warrants beneficially owned by Mr. Short for the purchase of up to 2,020 shares of common stock ($14.00 per share exercise prices and expirations of July 2017 and May 2018), including the PIK warrant, were cancelled in exchange for 6,674 shares of our common stock. The shares were not required to be issued until after our shareholders approved an increase in our authorized shares of common stock, which occurred on May 30, 2014. | |
Transactions with Mark McKnight | |
In January 2014, we purchased all of the outstanding shares of H&N Distribution, Inc. (H&N) for $2.0 million in cash, plus convertible promissory notes for $3.3 million. Mark McKnight, our current senior vice president of contract manufacturing, and his wife collectively owned a majority interest in H&N prior to the acquisition. In connection with our acquisition of H&N, Mark McKnight received $0.7 million in cash and a convertible promissory note for $1.4 million and Nicole McKnight, his wife, received $0.7 million in cash and a convertible promissory note for $1.4 million. We had the option to pay principal and accrued interest under the notes in either cash or in our common stock, however, if we issued shares to our former warrants holders upon an increase in authorized shares, under the terms of the Exchange, then we were required to settle any outstanding balance on the notes through the issuance of shares of our common stock. On May 30, 2014, we issued 225,925 shares of common stock to settle Mark McKnight’s note and 225,925 shares of common stock to settle Nicole McKnight’s note. The notes were converted at a conversion price of $6.00 per share. | |
In January 2014, we entered into a $0.1 million, 5% unsecured, promissory note with Nicole McKnight. We paid all principal and interest due under the note in October 2014. | |
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, prior to the acquisition, we had product sales to H&N totaling $0.2 million and $0.6 million. |

NOTE 16. INCOME TAXES | |
In connection with our accounting for the acquisition of H&N in January 2014, we established deferred tax liabilities of $1.4 million. These deferred tax liabilities primarily relate to intangibles recorded for financial reporting purposes, which are not deductible for tax purposes. We expect to utilize the benefit of our net operating loss carryforwards and current net operating losses against the taxable income as these deferred tax liabilities reverse. As a result, we reduced the valuation allowance on $0.2 million of our United States net operating loss carryforwards and recognized a deferred income tax benefit in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. | |
Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and similar state regulations. The annual limitations may result in the expiration of substantial net operating loss carryforwards before utilization. We have not completed the necessary analyses to determine the amount of such limitation. However, we expect any limitations will not impair our ability to realize the tax benefit recognized in 2014. |

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes current revenue recognition guidance and most industry-specific guidance. Under the new standard we will recognize revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue from a contract that contains multiple performance obligations will be allocated to each performance obligation generally on a relative standalone selling price basis. The guidance is effective for our annual and interim periods beginning in 2017. Early adoption is prohibited. We have not yet determined the impact that the new guidance will have on our results of operations and financial position and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017. |
