UNIROYAL GLOBAL ENGINEERED PRODUCTS, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
July 3, 2016
(Unaudited)
| 1. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Therefore, they do not include all information and footnote disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of Uniroyal Global Engineered Products, Inc.’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Uniroyal Global Engineered Products, Inc. (the “Company,” “Uniroyal Global,” “we,” or “us”) filed audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended January 3, 2016 and December 28, 2014 which included all information and notes necessary for such complete presentation in conjunction with its 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the interim period ended July 3, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 3, 2016, which are contained in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted a 52/53-week fiscal year ending on the Sunday nearest to December 31. The current year ending January 1, 2017 is a 52-week year whereas the year ended January 3, 2016 was a 53-week year.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of July 3, 2016, and the results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the interim periods ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015.
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company uses the US dollar as the reporting currency for financial reporting. The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s UK-based operations are measured using the British Pound Sterling as the functional currency. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are recorded as a change in other comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses generated from the remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of our foreign operations are included in other (expense) / income on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
| 2. | Noncash Transactions and Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information |
During the six months ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015, the Company paid down its term loans using available borrowings on its various lines of credit of $230,189 and $248,336, respectively.
During the six months ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015, the Company entered into new equipment financing arrangements with a value of $595,740 and $172,367, respectively. The fair value was added to property and equipment and a corresponding amount to long-term debt or capital lease obligations.
Supplemental disclosure of cash paid for:

| 3. | Derivatives |
The Company recognizes all of its derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and further, whether the hedge is a cash flow hedge or a fair value hedge.
The Company incurs foreign currency risk on sales and purchases denominated in other currencies, primarily the British Pound Sterling and the Euro. Foreign currency exchange contracts are used by the Company principally to limit the exchange rate fluctuations of the Euro. The Euro risk is partially limited due to natural cash flow offsets. Currency exchange contracts are purchased for approximately 25% of the net risk. These contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in fair value of these contracts are reported in net earnings as part of other income and expense.
| 4. | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Company’s short term financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and the line of credit. The Company adjusts the carrying value of financial assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies such as cash, receivables, accounts payable and the lines of credit using the appropriate exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The Company believes that the carrying values of these short term financial instruments approximate their estimated fair values.
The fair value of the Company’s long term debt is estimated based on current rates for similar instruments with the same remaining maturities. In determining the current interest rates for similar instruments the Company takes into account its risk of nonperformance. The Company believes that the carrying value of its long term debt approximates its estimated fair value.
The Company uses foreign currency exchange contracts which are recorded at their estimated fair values in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the currency exchange contracts are based upon observable market transactions of spot and forward rates.
For the six months ended July 3, 2016, there have been no changes in the application of valuation methods applied to similar assets and liabilities for the prior period.
| 5. | Foreign Currency Translation |
The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of operations denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted average exchange rates during the year. The resulting translation gains and losses on assets and liabilities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and are excluded from net income until realized through a sale or liquidation of the investment.

| 15. | Stock Option Plan |
On June 25, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the 2015 Stock Option Plan. This plan provides for the granting of options to purchase the Company’s common stock to employees and directors. The options granted are subject to a vesting schedule as set forth in each individual option agreement. Each option expires on the tenth anniversary of its date of grant unless an earlier termination date is provided in the grant agreement. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be optioned and sold under the plan shall be 6% of the shares outstanding on the date of grant. The shares that may be optioned under the plan may be authorized but unissued or may be treasury shares.
On July 30, 2015, the Company’s the Board of Directors approved the granting of options to purchase 665,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain key employees and Company directors. The exercise price was $2.37 per share. The options will vest in three annual installments beginning on July 30, 2016. All options will expire on July 30, 2025.
On April 7, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the granting of options to purchase 360,250 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain key employees and Company directors. The exercise price was $3.57 per share. The options will vest in three annual installments beginning April 7, 2017. All options will expire on April 7, 2026.
Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over a three-year vesting period from date of grant.
The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of its option awards. The following table summarizes the significant assumptions used in the model for the grants:
| April 7, 2016 | July 30, 2015 | |||||||
| Exercise price | $ | 3.57 | $ | 2.37 | ||||
| Expected volatility | 45 | % | 45 | % | ||||
| Risk free interest rate | 1.30 | % | 1.82 | % | ||||
| Expected term | 6 years | 6 years | ||||||
| Expected dividends | 0 | % | 0 | % | ||||
We based the expected volatility on comparable companies’ volatility because we determined that this was more reflective and a better indicator of the Company’s expected volatility than our historical volatility. The historical stock price and volatility prior to the November 10, 2014 acquisition were based on revenues and operations that were significantly different from the current business activities.
On a quarterly basis, we assess changes to our estimate of expected option award forfeitures based on our review of recent forfeiture activity and expected future employee turnover. We recognize the effect of adjustments made to the forfeiture rates, if any, in the period that we change the forfeiture estimate. For the six months ended July 3, 2016 there were no forfeiture rate adjustments and future adjustments are not expected to be significant.

| 16. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Under ASU 2014-09 and its subsequent amendments, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard will be effective for the Company January 1, 2018. The Company is in the process of determining what impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
On February 18, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard ASU No. 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis.” The new standard affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. It was effective for the Company on January 4, 2016. The Company does not expect this new standard to have a material effect on its financial statements.
On July 22, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. The new standard requires entities to measure most inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is a change from the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market with market defined as replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less a normal profit margin. The ASU will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. It will be effective for the Company on January 2, 2017. The Company is in the process of determining what impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
On November 20, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard ASU No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes - Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”. Under the new guidance deferred tax liabilities and assets will be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. It will be effective for the Company on January 2, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a significant effect on the results of operations and cash flows. The adoption will result in the recognition of all current deferred tax assets as non-current. The balance of current deferred tax asset is $1,630,783 at July 3, 2016 and $1,872,417 at January 3, 2016.

On February 25, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases”. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. It will be effective for the Company on December 31, 2018. The Company is in the process of determining what impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
On March 30, 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” The new standard involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. It will be effective for the Company on January 2, 2017. The Company is in the process of determining what impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
| 17. | Earnings per Common Share |
The Company calculates basic net income per common share by dividing net income after the deduction of preferred stock or preference dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted net income per share is consistent with that of basic net income per common share but gives effect to all potential common shares (that is, securities underlying options, warrants or convertible securities) that were outstanding during the period, unless the effect is anti-dilutive. For the three months and six months ended July 3, 2016, there were 55,341 dilutive common stock equivalents related to stock options included in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share. There were no dilutive common stock equivalents related to stock options for the three and six months ended July 5, 2015. At July 5, 2015, the Company’s 28,541 shares of convertible preferred stock Series A, Series B and Series C were convertible into 4,756,814 common shares. On December 30, 2015, the convertible preferred stock was converted into 4,756,814 common shares. As a result of this conversion, for the six months ended July 3, 2016, there were no dilutive shares outstanding.
| 18. | Subsequent Events |
The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring through the date that the financial statements were issued, for events requiring recording or disclosure in the July 3, 2016 financial statements. There were no material events or transactions occurring during this period requiring recognition or disclosure.

Business Description
We are a leading provider of manufactured vinyl coated fabrics. Our best known brand, Naugahyde, is the product of many improvements on a rubber-coated fabric developed a century ago in Naugatuck, Connecticut. We design, manufacture and market a wide selection of vinyl coated fabric products under a portfolio of recognized brand names. We believe that our business has continued to be a leading supplier in its marketplace because of our ability to provide specialized materials with performance characteristics customized to the end-user specifications, complemented by technical and customer support for the use of our products in manufacturing.
Our vinyl coated fabric products have undergone considerable evolution and today are distinguished by superior performance in a wide variety of applications as alternatives to leather, cloth and other synthetic fabric coverings. Our standard product lines consist of more than 600 SKUs with combinations of colors, textures, patterns and other properties. Our products are differentiated by unique protective top finishes, adhesive back coatings and transfer print capabilities. Additional process capabilities include embossing grains and patterns, and rotogravure printing, which imparts character prints and non-registered prints, lamination and panel cutting.
Our vinyl coated fabric products have various high performance characteristics and capabilities. They are durable, stain resistant, easily processed, more cost-effective and better performing than traditional leather or fabric coverings. Our products are frequently used in applications that require rigorous performance characteristics such as automotive and non-automotive transportation, certain indoor/outdoor furniture, commercial and hospitality seating, healthcare facilities and athletic equipment. We manufacture materials in a wide range of colors and textures. They can be hand or machine sewn, laminated to an underlying structure, thermoformed to cover various substrates or made into a variety of shapes for diverse end-uses. We are a long-established supplier to the global automotive industry and manufacture products for interior trim components from floor to headliner which are produced to meet specific component production requirements such as cut and sew, vacuum forming/covering, compression molding, and high frequency welding. Some products are supplied with micro perforations, which are necessary on most compression molding processes. Materials can also be combined with polyurethane or polypropylene foam laminated by either flame or hot melt adhesive for seating, fascia and door applications.
Products are developed and marketed based upon the performance characteristics required by end-users. For example, for recreational products used outdoors, such as boats, personal watercraft, golf carts and snowmobiles, a product designed primarily for durability and weatherability is used. We also manufacture a line of products called BeautyGard®, with water-based topcoats that contain agents to protect against bacterial and fungal microorganisms and can withstand repeated cleaning, a necessity in the restaurant and health care industries. These topcoats are environmentally friendlier than solvent-based topcoats. The line is widely used in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Flame and smoke retardant vinyl coated fabrics are used for a variety of commercial and institutional furniture applications, including hospitals, restaurants and residential care centers and seats for school buses and aircraft.
We currently conduct our operations in manufacturing facilities that are located in Stoughton, Wisconsin and Earby, England.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. Management believes that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results may vary from these estimates and assumptions under different future circumstances. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2016.

Overview:
The Company and its subsidiaries have adopted a 52/53-week fiscal year ending on the Sunday nearest to December 31. The current year ending January 1, 2017 is a 52-week year whereas the year ended January 3, 2016 was a 53-week year.
Our Earby, England operation’s functional currency is the British Pound Sterling and has sales and purchases transactions that are denominated in currencies other than its functional currency, principally the Euro. Approximately 23% of the Company’s global revenues and 28% of its global raw material purchases are derived from these transactions. The average exchange rate for the Pound Sterling to the U.S. Dollar was approximately 5.9% lower and the average exchange rate for the Euro to the Pound Sterling was approximately 6.1% higher in 2016 compared to 2015. These exchange rate changes had the net effect of decreasing net sales by approximately $792,000 for the six months ended July 3, 2016. Since the Pound Sterling exchange rate change also reduced the fixed expenses, the overall effect on net income was a positive amount of approximately $150,000 for the six months ended July 3, 2016 compared to the corresponding period of 2015.
Three Months Ended July 3, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended July 5, 2015

Revenue:
Total revenue for the three months 2016 increased $1,587,815 or 6.2% to $27,333,869 from $25,746,054 for the three months 2015. Several new programs awarded to the Company started production during the three months ended July 3, 2016. These gains were offset by the decrease from the net currency effect of the exchange rate change in the amount of $317,000.
Gross Profit:
Total gross profit for the three months 2016 increased $803,199 or 13.7% to $6,659,154 from $5,855,955 for the three months 2015. The gross profit percentage was 24.4% of sales for the three months 2016 compared to 22.7% for the three months 2015. The increase in gross profit resulted from increased sales, continued efficiency improvements at our facilities, favorable raw material pricing for the three months 2016 compared to 2015 and a positive net currency effect of $16,000 due to exchange rate changes.
| 20 |
Operating Expenses:
Selling expenses for the three months 2016 decreased $79,030 or 5.4% to $1,390,339 from $1,469,369 for the three months 2015. The decrease resulted primarily from the net currency effect of the exchange rate change.
General and administrative expenses for the three months 2016 increased by $476,543 or 28% to $2,179,088 from $1,702,545 for the three months 2015. The increase was due to a combination of factors such as the recognition of $106,424 in compensation expense related to a stock-based compensation plan approved in July 2015. There was no similar plan in the three months 2015. Also contributing to the increase were higher professional fees and general business expenses due to increased activity. These increases were partially offset by the net currency effect of $66,000.
Research and development expenses for the three months 2016 increased by $56,349 or 13.4% to $475,313 from $418,964 for the three months 2015. The increase was due to increased expenditures for new product development.
Operating Income:
Operating income for the three months 2016 increased by $349,337 or 15.4% to $2,614,414 from $2,265,077 for the three months 2015. The operating income percentage was 9.6% of sales for the three months 2016 compared to 8.8% for the three months 2015. Operating income increased primarily from the gross margin increases resulting from the increase in net sales, continued efficiency improvements and favorable raw material pricing. Also contributing to the increase was approximately $106,000 from the net positive effect of the exchange rate change.
Interest Expense:
Interest expense for the three months 2016 increased by $15,876 or 3.9% to $421,225 from $405,349 for the three months 2015. The increase was attributable to average higher debt balances in 2016 compared to 2015 and higher interest rates on LIBOR and prime during the three months 2016 compared to the three months 2015. The higher debt balance was attributable to funding for equipment purchases.
Other Income (Expense):
Other expense for the three months 2016 increased $93,907 to an expense of $88,564 from income of $5,343 for the three months 2015. The amount in other income (expense) principally is the currency gains and losses recognized by the UK operations on foreign currency transactions and the change in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in Euros and U.S. Dollars. For the three months ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015, the Company had net Euro liabilities. During the three months 2015, the exchange value of the Euro declined relative to the Pound Sterling which resulted in a gain adjustment whereas during the three months 2016, the exchange value of the Euro increased relative to the Pound Sterling which resulted in a loss adjustment. The Company also recognizes gains and losses from the change in fair values on its foreign currency exchange contracts.
Tax Provision:
The Company files income tax returns in the United States as a C-Corporation, and in several state jurisdictions and in the United Kingdom. The Company’s subsidiary, Uniroyal, is a limited liability company (LLC) for federal and state income tax purposes and as such, its income, losses, and credits are allocated to its members. Uniroyal’s income is allocated entirely to UEPH as its sole member. Uniroyal Global then receives this income allocation as a member of UEPH less the dividends paid on the preferred units held by the former members of Uniroyal. For federal income tax purposes UEPH is a pass through entity and the Company’s share of its taxable income is reported on its tax return. The taxable income applicable to the distribution for the preferred ownership interests is reported to the members who report it on their respective individual tax returns.
The Company has a deferred tax asset resulting from accumulated net operating losses which was partially reserved at January 3, 2016. The Company expects a benefit from a reduction in the valuation allowance in 2016 that will offset the federal provision on the U.S. taxable income. Therefore, the provision for fiscal 2016 will be comprised of EPAL’s U.K. tax plus a state and local tax provision on the Company’s U.S. income less the UEPH preferred dividends to the former Uniroyal members. The provisions for the three months ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015 include the EPAL U.K. tax and the Company’s state and local tax.

Preferred Stock Dividend:
The terms of the acquisitions in November 2014 resulted in the issuance of preferred ownership units/stock of UEP Holdings, LLC and EPAL to the sellers. These preferred units carry quarterly dividend requirements on a total value of $55,000,000 at rates ranging from 5.0% to 6.0%. The dividend rate on the Series B UEP Holdings preferred units which started at 5.5% increases by 0.5% on the anniversary of the issuance up to a maximum of 8.0%.

Revenue:
Total revenue for the six months 2016 decreased $959,525 or 1.8% to $52,301,464 from $53,260,989 for the six months 2015. The six months 2015 was a 27-week period compared to the 26-week period for the six months 2016. The extra week contributed approximately $500,000 to the decrease from 2015. Included in the decrease from 2015 are sales of $1.98 million related to a large automotive program that was scheduled to end and did end during the first quarter of 2015. These losses were offset by several new programs awarded to the Company. Also contributing to the decrease was the net currency effect of the exchange rate change in the amount of $792,000.
Actual automotive sales of $35.2 million were slightly ahead of expectations for the six months while sales for our non-automotive sectors in the amount of $17.1 million were down from expectation by approximately $2.0 million due to slowness in the economy during the first half of the year.
Gross Profit:
Total gross profit for the six months 2016 was $12,385,614 or 23.7% of sales compared with $11,211,018 or 21.0% of sales for the six months 2015. The increase in gross profit resulting from continued efficiency improvements at our facilities and favorable raw material pricing was partially offset by the margin lost from the lower sales for the six months 2016 compared to 2015 and a negative net currency effect of $42,000 due to the exchange rate changes.
| 22 |
Operating Expenses:
Selling expenses for the six months 2016 decreased $24,313 or 0.9% to $2,772,982 from $2,797,295 for the six months 2015. Increases in commissions on increased revenue compared to 2015 were offset by the net currency effect of the exchange rate changes.
General and administrative expenses for the six months 2016 increased by $562,601 or 15.4% to $4,220,922 from $3,658,321 for the six months 2015. The increase was due to a combination of factors such as the recognition of $165,565 in compensation expense related to a stock-based compensation plan approved in July 2015. There was no similar plan in the six months 2015. Also contributing to the increase were higher professional fees and general business expenses due to increased activity. These increases were partially offset by the net currency effect of $105,000.
Research and development expenses for the six months 2016 increased by $159,048 or 21.4% to $903,842 from $744,794 for the six months 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased expenditures for new product development.
Operating Income:
Operating income for the six months 2016 was $4,487,868 or 8.6% of sales compared with $4,010,608 or 7.5% for the six months 2015. Operating income increased primarily from the gross margin increases resulting from continued efficiency improvements and favorable raw material pricing. Also contributing to the increase was approximately $129,000 from the net positive effect of the exchange rate change.
Interest Expense:
Interest expense for the six months 2016 increased by $45,647 or 5.8% to $838,413 from $792,766 for the six months 2015. The increase was attributable to average higher debt balances in 2016 compared to 2015 and higher interest rates on LIBOR and prime during the six months 2016 compared to the six months 2015. The higher debt balance was attributable to funding for equipment purchases.
Other Income (Expense):
Other expense for the six months 2016 increased $434,764 to an expense of $262,060 from income of $172,704 for the six months 2015. The amount in other income (expense) principally is the currency gains and losses recognized by the UK operations on foreign currency transactions and the change in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in Euros and U.S. Dollars. For the six months ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015, the Company had net Euro liabilities. During the six months 2015, the exchange value of the Euro declined relative to the Pound Sterling which resulted in a gain adjustment whereas during the six months 2016, the exchange value of the Euro increased relative to the Pound Sterling which resulted in a loss adjustment. The Company also recognizes gains and losses from the change in fair values on its foreign currency exchange contracts. During the six months ended 2016, the Company recognized a loss of $89,596 on the change in fair values of it foreign currency exchange contracts where for the six months ended 2015, the Company recognized a gain of $47,865.
Tax Provision:
The Company has a deferred tax asset resulting from accumulated net operating losses which was partially reserved at January 3, 2016. The Company expects a benefit from a reduction in the valuation allowance in 2016 that will offset the federal provision on the U.S. taxable income. Therefore, the provision for fiscal 2016 will be comprised of EPAL’s U.K. tax plus a state and local tax provision on the Company’s U.S. income less the UEPH preferred dividends to the former Uniroyal members. The provisions for the six months ended July 3, 2016 and July 5, 2015 include the EPAL U.K. tax and the Company’s state and local tax.
Preferred Stock Dividend:
The terms of the acquisitions in November 2014 resulted in the issuance of preferred ownership units/stock of UEP Holdings, LLC and EPAL to the sellers. These preferred units carried quarterly dividend requirements on a total value of $55,000,000 at rates ranging from 5% to 6%. The dividend rate on the Series B UEP Holdings preferred units which started at 5.5% increases by 0.5% on the anniversary of the issuance up to a maximum of 8.0%.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital
Cash as it is needed is provided by using the Company’s lines of credit. These lines provide for a total borrowing commitment in excess of $40,000,000 subject to the underlying borrowing base specified in the agreements. Of the total outstanding borrowings of $17,051,351 at July 3, 2016, $13.3 million of the lines bears interest at LIBOR plus a range of 1.95% to 2.45%, depending on the underlying borrowing base and $3.7 million bears interest at the bank’s prime or base lending rate which was 3.50% at July 3, 2016. At July 3, 2016, the lines provided an additional availability of approximately $5.7 million. We plan to use this availability to help finance our cash needs for the remaining months of fiscal 2016 and future periods. The balances due under the lines of credit are recorded as current liabilities on the balance sheet.
Given our capital resources in the U.S. and the potential for increased investment and acquisitions in foreign jurisdictions, we do not have a history of repatriating a significant portion of our foreign cash. Accordingly, we have not recognized a deferred tax liability for these unremitted earnings. In the event that circumstances should change in the future and we decide to repatriate these foreign amounts to fund U.S. operations, the Company would record a tax expense and pay the applicable U.S. taxes on these repatriated foreign amounts.
The ratio of current assets to current liabilities, including the amount due under our lines of credit, was 1.18 at July 3, 2016 and 1.22 at January 3, 2016.
Cash balances decreased $440,509, after the negative effects of currency translation of $68,749, to $1,469,603 at July 3, 2016 from $1,910,112 at January 3, 2016. Of the above noted amounts, $878,384 and $1,357,877 were held outside the U.S. by our foreign subsidiaries as of July 3, 2016 and January 3, 2016, respectively.
Cash provided by operations was $2,148,415 for the six months 2016 compared to $2,052,642 for the six months 2015. Cash provided by operations during 2016 and 2015 was primarily due to operating income and increased accounts payable due to the timing of vendor payments offset by increases in accounts receivable and inventory.
Cash used in investing activities was $874,862 for the six months 2016 compared to $2,421,648 for the six months 2015. During 2016 and 2015, cash used in investing activities was principally for purchases of machinery and equipment at our manufacturing locations. Of the $2,264,541 total capital expenditures for 2015, $1,878,176 was for the U.K. manufacturing facility and of this amount, $793,408 was for the completion of a new production line. The total cost of the line was approximately $2.4 million. The Company arranged a financing lease for $1.7 million which was funded in March 2015. The proceeds from this lease were used to reduce the Company’s U.K. line of credit. Included in cash used for investing activities was $176,377 and $157,107 for premiums paid on company owned life insurance for the three months 2016 and 2015, respectively.
For the six months 2016, cash used in financing activities was $1,645,313 as compared to $1,732,319 provided by financing activities for the six months 2015. The Company had net advances on its lines of credit of $1,085,914 and $831,585 for the six months ended 2016 and 2015, respectively. As mentioned above, the Company received $1.7 million in March 2015 related to a financing lease. In May 2016, the Company modified the terms of the secured promissory note in the amount of $1,285,593 related to the Wardle Storeys acquisition and paid the note in full on May 31, 2016. The Company paid $1,174,463 and $1,106,892 of preferred dividends for the six months 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Our credit agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of July 3, 2016 and through the date of filing of this report.
We currently have several on-going capital projects that are important to our long term strategic goals. Machinery and equipment will also be added as needed to increase capacity or enhance operating efficiencies in our manufacturing plants. We will use a combination of financing arrangements to provide the necessary capital. We believe that our existing resources, including cash on hand and our credit facilities, together with cash generated from operations and additional bank borrowings, will be sufficient to fund our cash flow requirements through at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all.
We have no material off balance sheet arrangements.
