(1) Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of iGo, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Mobility California, Inc., Mobility Idaho, Inc., iGo EMEA Limited, Mobility Texas, Inc., iGo Direct Corporation, Adapt Mobile Limited (“Adapt”) and Aerial7 Industries, Inc. (“Aerial7”) (collectively, “iGo” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any other period. | |
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make a number of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debt expense, sales returns and price protection, inventories, warranty obligations, impairment of long-lived assets and investments, and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU No. 2012-02”), which allows entities to use a qualitative approach to test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. ASU No. 2012-02 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, the quantitative impairment test is not required. ASU No. 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance in the first interim period for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. | |
In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance that requires entities to present information about reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income in their financial statements or footnotes. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance in the first interim period for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. |

(2) Fair Value Measurement | ||||||||||||||||||
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We classify our investments based upon an established fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows: | ||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2 | Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments without quoted market prices, but for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3 | Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. | |||||||||||||||||
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. | ||||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values since they are short-term in nature. | ||||||||||||||||||

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, investments in U.S. municipal bond funds, totaling approximately $2,138,000 and $2,129,000, respectively, are classified as short-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These investments are considered available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value based on the net asset value as reported by the fund manager, which qualifies as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. | ||||||||||||||||||
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, investments in marketable securities totaling zero and $60,000 are classified as long-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In December 2012, the securities, classified as long-term investments, ceased trading in an active market. These investments are considered available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value based on the most recent available trading price adjusted for lack of liquidity, which qualifies as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Prior to December 2012, they qualified as level 1. The unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are recorded in other comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses are included in interest income, net. | ||||||||||||||||||
During the second quarter of 2013, the Company determined that the remaining net book value of its technology license and distribution rights from Pure Energy was fully impaired. The Company has no ability to utilize the technology related to the battery line, nor an immediate alternative manufacturing or supply capability, making it doubtful that the Company will be able to continue the product line associated with these rights. |

Long-term | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
In June 2011, the Company made an investment in Pure Energy Visions Corporation (“Pure Energy Visions”), which is a stockholder in Pure Energy Solutions, Inc. (“Pure Energy”), the Company's supplier of rechargeable batteries, in which the Company received 2,142,858 shares of common stock of Pure Energy Visions at a price per share equal to $0.286, and an interest-free convertible secured debenture having a one-year repayment term that converts into an additional 2,142,858 shares of Pure Energy Visions common stock in lieu of repayment either upon the achievement of certain business goals or earlier at iGo's discretion. The debenture was not collected within the one-year repayment term and the Company maintains its rights and remedies under the debenture, though it has determined the value of the debenture to be fully impaired, as discussed below. The Company did not obtain control of Pure Energy Visions as a result of this investment. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company assesses its long-term investments for other-than-temporary declines in value by considering various factors that include, among other things, events that may affect the creditworthiness of a security’s issuer, the length of time the security has been in a loss position, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the security until a forecasted recovery of fair value. At December 31, 2012, the Company’s investment in Pure Energy Visions had a fair value significantly below its amortized cost and during the second quarter of 2013 Pure Energy was placed into receivership. Due to the duration the security had been in a loss position and the probability that its value would not be recovered, the Company considered its investment in Pure Energy Visions to be fully impaired and accordingly, recognized a loss of $60,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Stock-based Compensation | |||||||||||||||||
Stock-based compensation expense includes compensation expense, recognized over the applicable requisite service periods, from awards of stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) made under the Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan as adopted by the Company’s stockholders in 2004 and subsequently amended (“Omnibus Plan”). As of September 30, 2013, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options and RSUs. In connection with the tender offer by Steel Excel Inc. (“Steel”) to acquire up to 1,316,866 of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, representing a 44.7% ownership position in the Company on a fully-diluted basis, at a price of $3.95 per share (the “Offer”), the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved the conditional acceleration of full vesting of outstanding stock options and RSUs upon the commencement of the Offer. Accordingly, upon the consummation of the Offer, $474,000 unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options and RSUs was recognized on August 23, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recorded pre-tax charges to general and administrative expense of $541,000 and $758,000, respectively, associated with RSU and stock option awards activity. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded pre-tax charges to general and administrative expense of $343,000 and $1,199,000, respectively, associated with RSU awards activity. There was no stock option awards activity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Stock Options | |||||||||||||||||
Stock options awarded under the Omnibus Plan are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and vest over a period determined by the Compensation and Human Relations Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors when the options are granted. Vesting periods generally range from one to three years. The options have a maximum term of ten years. | |||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2013, there were 45,833 fully vested stock options outstanding and exercisable and no non-vested stock options, compared to 87,500 non-vested stock options and no fully vested stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2012, as adjusted for the 1-for-12 reverse stock split effective on January 28, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||

No stock options were exercised during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company did not grant any stock options during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013. The weighted average fair value of options granted in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 was $6.12. The fair value of the stock options was determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which relied on the following key assumptions with respect to the options granted during the respective periods: | |||||||||||||||||
Three Months Ended | Nine Months Ended | ||||||||||||||||
September 30, | September 30, | ||||||||||||||||
2013 | 2012 | 2013 | 2012 | ||||||||||||||

Expected stock price volatility | - | 75.64 | % | - | 75.64 | % | |||||||||||
Expected dividend yield | - | - | - | - | |||||||||||||
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury security rate in effect as of the date of grant. The expected term of the options and stock price volatility are based on historical data of the Company. | |||||||||||||||||

Preferred Stock and Dividends | |||||||||||||||||
On June 20, 2013, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Rights Agreement with its transfer agent, which amended and restated the Company’s previous Rights Agreement dated as of June 11, 2003, as amended, scheduled to expire on June 23, 2013. In connection with the Company’s entering into the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “ Right” and collectively, the “Rights” ) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 30, 2013. | |||||||||||||||||
The Rights granted under the Amended and Restated Rights Agreement are intended to establish a deterrent to any person acquiring 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, or any existing 4.9% or greater holder from acquiring any additional shares representing 1.0% or more of the then outstanding common stock, in each case, without the approval of the Board, in an effort to preserve the Company’s net operating losses and other similar tax attributes against potential limitations presented by stock ownership changes. | |||||||||||||||||
Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of Series H Junior Participating Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”), par value $0.01 per share, of the Company’s preferred stock at a price of $6.75 per one one-thousandth of a share. The Rights become exercisable only, however, after any person acquires, or announces intention to acquire via a tender or exchange offer, 4.9% or more of the Company's outsanding shares of common stock. Prior to such time, the Board may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price of $0.01 per Right payable in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or another form of consideration at the option of the Company. Immediately upon the redemption of any Rights, the holder’s right to exercise such Rights will terminate and the holder will be entitled only to receive the redemption price. | |||||||||||||||||
Until a Right is exercised or exchanged, the holder thereof, as such, will have no additional rights as a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends. | |||||||||||||||||
Shares of Preferred Stock issued upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. Each share of Preferred Stock will be entitled, when, as and if declared, to a minimum preferential quarterly dividend payment of the greater of (a) $10 per share, and (b) an amount equal to 1,000 times the dividend declared per share of common stock. In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to a minimum preferential payment of the greater of (a) $1,000 per share (plus any accrued but unpaid dividends), and (b) an amount equal to 1,000 times the payment made per share of common stock. Each share of Preferred Stock will have 1,000 votes, voting together with the common stock. Finally, in the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which outstanding shares of common stock are converted or exchanged, each share of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive 1,000 times the amount received per share of common stock. These rights are protected by customary antidilution provisions. | |||||||||||||||||
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 15,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock were authorized. There were no shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. |

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions and generally limits the amount of credit exposure to the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage limit of $250,000. However, periodically during the year, the Company maintains cash in financial institutions in excess of the FDIC limit. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition but does not typically require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. | |||||||||||||||||
One customer (Walmart) accounted for 45% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Two customers (Walmart and RadioShack) accounted for 31% and 14%, respectively, of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Walmart also accounted for 44% of net accounts receivable at September 30, 2013. Two customers (Walmart and Fry’s Electronics) accounted for 24% and 11%, respectively, of net accounts receivable at December 31, 2012. | |||||||||||||||||
Allowance for doubtful accounts was $496,000 and $362,000 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Allowance for sales returns and price protection was $319,000 and $508,000 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. |

(8) Contingencies | |
The Company procures its products primarily from suppliers based in Asia. Typically, the Company places purchase orders for completed products and takes ownership of the finished inventory upon completion and delivery from its suppliers. Occasionally, the Company presents its suppliers with “Letters of Authorization’ to induce the suppliers to procure long-lead raw components to be used in the manufacture of the Company’s products. These Letters of Authorization indicate the Company’s commitment to utilize the long-lead raw components in production. As of September 30, 2007, based on a change in strategic direction, the Company determined it would not procure certain products for which it had outstanding Letters of Authorization with suppliers, but was required to pay suppliers for certain Letter of Authorization commitments. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company settled its remaining obligations related to the commitments. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had estimated and recorded remaining liability for this contingency in the amounts of zero and $80,000, respectively. | |
From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is not currently a party to any litigation for which, in the Company’s determination, an adverse outcome would have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. |

On October 10, 2013, the Company entered into a Management Services Agreement (the “Management Services Agreement”) with SP Corporate Services LLC (“SP Corporate”), effective as of October 1, 2013. SP Corporate is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Steel Partners Holdings L.P. (“Steel Holdings”). Steel Holdings is deemed to have shared power to vote and dispose of the securities held by the Company’s largest stockholder, Steel, which was the direct owner of 1,316,866 shares of the Company’s common stock as of October 1, 2013, representing approximately 44.7% of the Company’s outstanding shares. | |
Pursuant to the Management Services Agreement, SP Corporate will provide the Company with the services of Terry R. Gibson, as the Company’s interim President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, and certain other employees and corporate services. Mr. Gibson had previously assumed the role as a director of the Company effective August 23, 2013. | |
The Management Services Agreement provides that the Company will pay SP Corporate a fixed annual fee of $372,000 for (a) the Executive Services (as defined in the Management Services Agreement), including, without limitation, services of an interim President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary of the Company and other executive services provided by SP Corporate under the Management Services Agreement, and (b) the Corporate Services (as defined in the Management Services Agreement), including, without limitation, legal, tax, accounting, treasury, consulting, auditing, administrative, compliance, environmental health and safety, human resources, marketing, investor relations and other similar services rendered for the Company or its subsidiaries.

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU No. 2012-02”), which allows entities to use a qualitative approach to test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. ASU No. 2012-02 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, the quantitative impairment test is not required. ASU No. 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance in the first interim period for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. | ||||||||||||||||||
In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance that requires entities to present information about reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income in their financial statements or footnotes. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance in the first interim period for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. | ||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||||
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We classify our investments based upon an established fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows: | ||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2 | Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments without quoted market prices, but for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3 | Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. | |||||||||||||||||
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. | ||||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values since they are short-term in nature. | ||||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair values of the Company’s investments and net intangible assets were as follows (in thousands): | ||||||||||||||||||

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, investments in U.S. municipal bond funds, totaling approximately $2,138,000 and $2,129,000, respectively, are classified as short-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These investments are considered available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value based on the net asset value as reported by the fund manager, which qualifies as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. | ||||||||||||||||||
At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, investments in marketable securities totaling zero and $60,000 are classified as long-term investments on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In December 2012, the securities, classified as long-term investments, ceased trading in an active market. These investments are considered available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value based on the most recent available trading price adjusted for lack of liquidity, which qualifies as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Prior to December 2012, they qualified as level 1. The unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are recorded in other comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses are included in interest income, net. | ||||||||||||||||||
During the second quarter of 2013, the Company determined that the remaining net book value of its technology license and distribution rights from Pure Energy was fully impaired. The Company has no ability to utilize the technology related to the battery line, nor an immediate alternative manufacturing or supply capability, making it doubtful that the Company will be able to continue the product line associated with these rights. |
