Founded in December 2006 as a Florida limited liability company, Imperial Holdings, LLC, converted into Imperial Holdings, Inc. (with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Imperial”) on February 3, 2011, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering. | |
Incorporated in Florida, Imperial, through its subsidiaries, owns a portfolio of 632 life insurance policies, also referred to as life settlements, with a fair value of $429.6 million and an aggregate death benefit of approximately $3.0 billion at March 31, 2015. The Company primarily earns income on these policies from changes in their fair value and through death benefits. 446 of these policies, with an aggregate death benefit of approximately $2.2 billion and an estimated fair value of approximately $314.6 million at March 31, 2015 are pledged under a $300.0 million, 15-year revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) entered into by the Company’s indirect subsidiary, White Eagle Asset Portfolio, LP (“White Eagle”). The majority of the Company’s other assets, including the 186 policies that are not pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility, with an aggregate death benefit of approximately $762.6 million and an estimated fair value of approximately $115.0 million at March 31, 2015 are pledged as collateral under an indenture governing $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 12.875% Senior Secured Notes issued by the Company (the “Secured Notes”). |

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation | (2) Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all of its wholly-owned subsidiary companies and its special purpose entities, with the exception of Imperial Settlements Financing 2010, LLC (“ISF 2010”), an unconsolidated special purpose entity which is accounted for using the cost method of accounting. The special purpose entity has been created to fulfill specific objectives. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation, including income from services performed by subsidiaries in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility. Notwithstanding consolidation, as referenced above, White Eagle is the owner of 446 policies. | |
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the rules and regulations of the SEC for Form 10-Q and therefore do not include certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. However, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements, have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods or for the year ended December 31, 2015. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Imperial’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. | |
Discontinued Operations | |
On October 25, 2013, the Company sold substantially all of the assets comprising its structured settlement business to Majestic Opco L.L.C for $12.0 million pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement. | |
As a result, the Company has discontinued segment reporting and classified its operating results of the structured settlement business, net of income taxes, as discontinued operations. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations for each of the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements reflect the classification of our structured settlement business operating results as discontinued operations. See Note 7, “Discontinued Operations,” for further information. Unless otherwise noted, the following notes refer to the Company’s continuing operations. | |
Derivative Instruments | |
In February 2014, the Company issued and sold $70.7 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2019 (the “Convertible Notes”). Prior to shareholder approval on June 5, 2014 to issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes in excess of New York Stock Exchange limits for share issuances without shareholder approval, the Convertible Notes contained an embedded derivative feature. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, Derivatives and Hedging, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet and are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, such as the Convertible Notes, are bifurcated and recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings if they can be reliably measured. The Company determined the fair value of its embedded derivative based upon available market data and unobservable inputs using a Black Scholes pricing model. In accordance with ASC 815, upon receipt of shareholder approval on June 5, 2014, the Company reclassified the embedded derivative to equity along with unamortized transaction costs proportionate to the allocation of the initial debt discount and the principal amount of the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes are recorded at accreted value and will continue to be accreted up to the par value of the Convertible Notes at maturity. See Note 10, 8.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes. | |
Foreign Currency | |
The Company owns certain foreign subsidiaries formed under the laws of Ireland and Bermuda. These foreign subsidiaries utilize the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Any gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions (transactions denominated in a currency other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency) are included in income. These gains and losses are immaterial to the Company’s financial statements. | |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made by management include income taxes, the valuation of investments in life settlements, the valuation of the debt owing under the Revolving Credit Facility, the valuation of equity awards and the valuation of the conversion derivative liability formerly embedded within the Company’s Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes. |

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” The amendments in the ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. The new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. The new guidance also requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in the ASU are effective in the first quarter of 2015 for the Company and did not have a significant impact on our financial statements. | |
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which converges the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board standard on revenue recognition. Areas of revenue recognition that will be affected include, but are not limited to, transfer of control, variable consideration, allocation of transfer pricing, licenses, time value of money, contract costs and disclosures. This is effective for the fiscal years and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures. | |
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” The standard provides guidance around management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that this guidance will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. | |
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30).” This standard provides guidance on the balance sheet presentation for debt issuance costs and debt discounts and debt premiums. To simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs, this standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is evaluating the new guidance and plans to provide additional information about its expected impact at a future date. |

The Company evaluates its interests in variable interest entities (“VIEs”) on an ongoing basis and consolidates those VIEs in which it has a controlling financial interest and is thus deemed to be the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest has both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to it or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. | |||||||||||||||||

In 2011, the Company established the Imperial Holdings 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) to attract, retain and motivate participating employees and to attract and retain well-qualified individuals to serve as members of the board of directors, consultants and advisors through the use of incentives based upon the value of our common stock. Awards under the Omnibus Plan may consist of incentive awards, stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, and shares of common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other stock-based awards as determined by the compensation committee. The Omnibus Plan provides for an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common stock to be reserved for issuance under the Omnibus Plan, subject to adjustment as provided in the Omnibus Plan. The outstanding options issued in 2011 expire seven years after the date of grant and were granted with a strike price of $10.75, which was the offering price of our initial public offering or fair market value (closing price) of the stock on the date of grant and vest over three years. The Company has submitted to shareholders for approval a proposal to amend and restate the Omnibus Plan to, among other things, increase the shares authorized for issuance by 1,500,000 shares creating a maximum share pool of 2,700,000. | |||||||||||||||||
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company issued 545,000 options to employees at a strike price of $6.94.

The issuance of the performance shares is contingent on the Company’s financial performance, as well as the performance of the Company’s common stock through June 30, 2016, with the actual shares to be issued ranging between 0 – 150% of the target performance shares. The Company evaluates on a quarterly basis whether it is probable that the Company’s financial performance conditions will be achieved. At March 31, 2015, the Company determined that it was not probable that the performance conditions would be achieved and as a result, no related expense was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2015. | |||||||||||||||||

Debt Disclosure | (10) 8.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes | ||||
In February 2014, the Company issued $70.7 million in an aggregate principal amount of 8.50% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2019. The Convertible Notes were sold, in part, to certain accredited investors pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 and, in part, to an initial purchaser who then resold such Convertible Notes to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. The Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated February 21, 2014, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. Two members of our Board of Directors, Messrs. Dakos and Goldstein, are affiliated with Bulldog Investors, LLC, who purchased Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $9.2 million in the offering. | |||||
The Convertible Notes are general senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of our other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The Convertible Notes are effectively subordinate to all of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets collateralizing such indebtedness. The Convertible Notes are not guaranteed by our subsidiaries. | |||||
The maturity date of the Convertible Notes is February 15, 2019. The Convertible Notes accrue interest at the rate of 8.50% per annum on the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, payable semi-annually in arrears on August 15 and February 15 of each year. | |||||
The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The Convertible Notes may be converted into shares of common stock initially at a conversion rate of 147.9290 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of $6.76 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment. | |||||
The Company may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to February 15, 2017. On and after February 15, 2017, and prior to the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all, but not less than all, of the Convertible Notes if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds 130% of the applicable conversion price for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the trading day immediately prior to the date the Company delivers notice of the redemption. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, if we call the Convertible Notes for redemption, a make-whole fundamental charge will be deemed to occur. As a result, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares of common stock for holders who convert their notes prior to the redemption date. | |||||
The Company determined that an embedded conversion option existed in the Convertible Notes, prior to June 5, 2014, that was required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815 which required the Company to bifurcate the embedded conversion option and record it as a liability at fair value and record a debt discount by an equal amount with changes in the fair value of the conversion derivative liability recorded in earnings and the discount on the debt liability, together with the stated interest on the instrument, amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. | |||||
On June 5, 2014, the Company obtained shareholder approval to issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes in an amount that exceeded applicable New York Stock Exchange limits for issuances without shareholder approval. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company reclassified the embedded conversion derivative liability to equity along with unamortized transaction costs proportionate to the allocation of the initial debt discount and the principal amount of the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes are recorded at accreted value and will continue to be accreted up to the par value of the Convertible Notes at maturity. | |||||
The fair value of the conversion derivative liability was estimated at June 5, 2014 using a Black Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: | |||||
As of | |||||
June 5, 2014 | |||||
Expected Volatility | 40 | % | |||
Expected Term in Years | 4.7 | ||||
Risk Free Rate | 1.5 | % | |||
At June 5, 2014, the fair value of the conversion derivative liability was $23.7 million. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company reclassified this amount along with $756,000 of unamortized transaction costs offset by deferred taxes of $8.8 million to stockholders’ equity. As of March 31, 2015, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes was $56.5 million. The unamortized debt discount and origination cost of $14.2 million and $2.1 million, respectively, will be amortized over the remaining life of the Convertible Notes, using the effective interest method. | |||||
The Company recorded $2.2 million and $967,000 of interest expense on the Convertible Notes, including $1.5 million, $614,000 and $91,000 and $668,000, $250,000 and $49,000 from interest, amortizing debt discounts and issuance costs, during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. | |||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a loss on the change in fair value of the conversion derivative liability of $2.1 million and as of March 31, 2014, the fair value of the conversion derivative liability was $19.0 million. | |||||

On November 10, 2014 (the “Initial Closing Date”), the Company, as issuer, entered into an indenture with certain of its subsidiaries, Harbordale, LLC, Imperial Finance & Trading, LLC, Imperial Life and Annuity Services, LLC, Imperial Litigation Funding, LLC, Imperial Premium Finance, LLC, Red Reef Alternative Investments, LLC and Washington Square Financial, LLC, as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), and Wilmington Trust Company, as indenture trustee. The indenture provides for the issuance of up to $100 million in senior secured notes, of which $25 million was issued by the Company on the Initial Closing Date. The Secured Notes issued on the Initial Closing Date were issued at 96% of their face amount and were purchased under a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with the Company and the Guarantors by an affiliate of Indaba Capital Management, L.P. (the “Purchaser”) in a private transaction pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. On January 21, 2015, the Company issued an additional $25 million in aggregate principal amount of Secured Notes, which were purchased by the Purchaser under the Note Purchase Agreement at 96% of their principal amount. Fees and expenses paid by the Company in connection with the Initial Closing Date and its subsequent issuance were approximately $1.8 million and $305,000, respectively. | |||||
The Note Purchase Agreement gives the Purchaser the right, subject to applicable law, to appoint one director to Imperial’s board of directors so long as it maintains a voting percentage of at least 5% of Imperial’s common stock and holds at least $25 million in principal amount or market value of Imperial’s debt. | |||||
Interest on issued Secured Notes accrues at 12.875% per annum and all Secured Notes issued under the indenture will mature on November 10, 2017 although Imperial may elect to extend the maturity date by an additional 12 months (the “Extended Term”) and, if elected, interest on the Secured Notes will accrue at 14.5% during the Extended Term. The Secured Notes may not be optionally redeemed by the Company for one year from the Initial Closing Date. Between the first and second anniversary of the Initial Closing Date, the Company may optionally redeem the Secured Notes at 106% of the principal amount redeemed and thereafter at 104%, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Secured Notes to the date of redemption. If the Company does not elect the Extended Term, Secured Notes may be optionally redeemed within 60 days of the Initial Maturity at par plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the Initial Maturity. The Secured Notes are subject to mandatory prepayment provisions upon the issuance of additional debt and asset sales. In addition to usual and customary affirmative and negative covenants restricting additional debt, creation of liens, transactions with affiliates, and restrictions on certain payments and investments, the indenture governing the Secured Notes requires the Company to maintain a net worth of no less than $100 million and cash and cash equivalents of at least $20 million. | |||||
The Secured Notes are guaranteed by the Guarantors and are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and Guarantors’ assets, other than those securing the Revolving Credit Facility, including cash on account as well as the Company’s life insurance policies that are not pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Secured Notes are also secured by pledges of the equity interests of the Guarantors and by pledges of 65% of their first tier foreign subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2015, 186 life insurance policies owned by the Company with an aggregate death benefit of approximately $762.6 million and an estimated fair value of approximately $115.0 million have been pledged as collateral as security for the Secured Notes. | |||||
The Company may issue, and the Purchaser will be obligated to purchase, up to an additional $50 million in aggregate principal amount of Secured Notes in two, $25 million increments during the period ending on November 10, 2015 provided certain performance conditions are met (in addition to usual and customary conditions precedent), which requires the Company to first satisfy book and market value targets. Additionally, the Company will pay a draw-down fee of 1% of the amount of any subsequent issuance of Secured Notes and will pay a monthly unused fee on the unissued Secured Notes at a per annum rate of 1%. | |||||
As of March 31, 2015, the outstanding principal balance of the Secured Notes was $50.0 million. The Company recorded $1.8 million of interest expense on the Secured Notes, including $1.4 million, $128,000, $116,000 and $129,000 from interest, unused fees, amortizing debt discounts and issuance costs, during the three months ended March 31, 2015. | |||||

Debt Disclosure | (9) Revolving Credit Facility | ||||
Effective April 29, 2013, White Eagle entered into a 15-year revolving credit agreement with LNV Corporation, as initial lender, Imperial Finance & Trading, LLC, as servicer and portfolio manager and CLMG Corp., as administrative agent, providing for up to $300.0 million in borrowings. Proceeds from the initial advance under the facility were used, in part, to retire a bridge facility and to fund a payment to the lender protection insurance provider to release subrogation rights in certain of the policies pledged as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility. On May 16, 2014, White Eagle Asset Portfolio, LLC converted from a Delaware limited liability company to White Eagle Asset Portfolio, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Conversion”) and all of its ownership interests were transferred to an indirect, wholly-owned Irish subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Conversion, the Revolving Credit Facility was amended and restated among White Eagle, as borrower, Imperial Finance and Trading, LLC, as the initial servicer, the initial portfolio manager and guarantor, Lamington Road Bermuda Ltd., as portfolio manager, LNV Corporation, as initial lender, the other financial institutions party thereto as lenders, and CLMG Corp., as administrative agent for the lenders. | |||||
Ongoing draws under the Revolving Credit Facility may be used, among other things, to pay premiums on the life insurance policies that have been pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility. Proceeds from the policies pledged as collateral are distributed pursuant to a waterfall. After premium payments and fees to service providers, 100% of the remaining proceeds will be directed to pay outstanding principal and interest on the loan. Generally, after payment of principal and interest, collections from policy proceeds are to be paid to White Eagle up to $76.1 million, then 50% of the remaining proceeds are to be directed to the lenders with the remainder paid to White Eagle. | |||||
As of March 31, 2015, 446 life insurance policies owned by White Eagle with an aggregate death benefit of approximately | |||||
$2.2 billion and an estimated fair value of approximately $314.6 million are pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility. | |||||
General & Security. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility backed by White Eagle’s portfolio of life insurance policies with an initial aggregate lender commitment of up to $300.0 million, subject to borrowing base availability. 446 life insurance policies with an aggregate death benefit of approximately $2.2 billion and an estimated fair value of approximately $314.6 million are pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility at March 31, 2015. In addition, the equity interests in White Eagle have been pledged under the Revolving Credit Facility. | |||||
Borrowing Base. Borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which at any time is equal to the lesser of (A) the sum of all of the following amounts that have been funded or are to be funded through the next distribution date (i) the initial advance and all additional advances to acquire additional pledged policies or that are not for ongoing maintenance advances, plus (ii) 100% of the sum of the ongoing maintenance costs, plus (iii) 100% of accrued and unpaid interest on borrowings (excluding the rate floor portion described below), plus (iv) 100% of any other fees and expenses funded and to be funded as approved by the required lenders, less (v) any required payments of principal and interest previously distributed and to be distributed through the next distribution date; (B) 75% of the valuation of the policies pledged as collateral as determined by the lenders; (C) 50% of the aggregate face amount of the policies pledged as collateral (excluding certain specified life insurance policies); and (D) the then applicable facility limit. At March 31, 2015, $136.8 million was undrawn and $3.1 million was available to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility. | |||||
Amortization & Distributions. Proceeds from the policies pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility will be distributed pursuant to a waterfall. Absent an event of default, after premium payments and fees to service providers, 100% of the remaining proceeds will be directed to pay outstanding interest and principal on the loan, unless the lenders determine otherwise. Generally, after payment of interest and principal, up to $76.1 million in collections from policy proceeds are to be paid to White Eagle, then 50% of the remaining proceeds are to be directed to the lenders with the remainder paid to White Eagle and for any unpaid fees to service providers. With respect to approximately 25% of the face amount of policies pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility, White Eagle has agreed that if policy proceeds that are otherwise due are not paid by an insurance carrier, the foregoing distributions will be altered such that the lenders will receive any “catch-up” payments with respect to amounts that they would have received in the waterfall prior to distributions being made to White Eagle. During the continuance of events of default or unmatured events of default, the amounts from collections of policy proceeds that might otherwise be paid to White Eagle will instead be held in a designated account controlled by the lenders and may be applied to fund operating and third party expenses, interest and principal, “catch-up” payments or percentage payments that would go to the lenders as described above. | |||||
Use of Proceeds. Generally, ongoing advances may be made for paying premiums on the life insurance policies pledged as collateral, to pay debt service (other than a “rate floor” component equal to the greater of LIBOR (or the applicable base rate) and 1.5%), and to pay the fees of service providers. Subsequent advances in respect of newly pledged policies are at the discretion of the lenders and the use of proceeds from those advances are at the discretion of the lenders. | |||||
Interest. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR or, if LIBOR is unavailable, the base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin of 4.00% and subject to the rate floor described above. The base rate under the Revolving Credit Facility equals the sum of (i) the weighted average of the interest rates on overnight federal funds transactions or, if unavailable, the average of three federal funds quotations received by the Agent plus 0.75% and (ii) 0.5%. The effective rate at March 31, 2015 was 5.5%. | |||||
Interest expense for the cash portion of interest paid during the period is recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accrued interest is reflected as a component of the estimated fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility debt. Interest expense on the facility was $2.3 million and $1.8 million, which includes $1.6 million and $1.3 million withheld from borrowings by the lender and $619,000 and $499,000 paid by White Eagle, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. | |||||
Maturity. The term of the Revolving Credit Facility expires April 28, 2028, which is also the scheduled commitment termination date (though the lenders’ commitments to fund borrowings may terminate earlier in an event of default). The lenders’ interests in and rights to a portion of the proceeds of the policies does not terminate with the repayment of the principal borrowed and interest accrued thereon, the termination of the Revolving Credit Facility or expiration of the lenders’ commitments. | |||||
Covenants/Events of Defaults. The Revolving Credit Facility contains covenants and events of default that are customary for asset-based credit agreements of this type, but also include cross defaults under the servicing, account control, contribution and pledge agreements entered into in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility (including in relation to breached by third parties thereunder), certain changes in law, changes in control of or insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company and relevant subsidiaries and performance of certain obligations by certain relevant subsidiaries, White Eagle and third parties. The Revolving Credit Facility does not contain any financial covenants, but does contain certain tests relating to asset maintenance, performance and valuation, the satisfaction of which will be determined by the lenders with a high degree of discretion. | |||||
Remedies. The Revolving Credit Facility and ancillary transaction documents afford the lenders a high degree of discretion in their selection and implementation of remedies, including strict foreclosure, in relation to any event of default, including a high degree of discretion in determining whether to foreclose upon and liquidate all or any pledged policies, the interests in White Eagle, and the manner of any such liquidation. White Eagle has limited ability to cure events of default through the sale of policies or the procurement of replacement financing. | |||||
We have elected to account for the debt under the Revolving Credit Facility, which includes the 50% interest in policy proceeds to the lender, using the fair value method. The fair value of the debt is the amount the Company would have to pay to transfer the debt to a market participant in an orderly transaction. We calculated the fair value of the debt using a discounted cash flow model taking into account the stated interest rate of the credit facility and probabilistic cash flows from the pledged policies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, our estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we, or holders of the instruments, could realize in a current market exchange. The most significant assumptions are the estimates of life expectancy of the insured and the discount rate. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair values. | |||||
At March 31, 2015, the fair value of the outstanding debt was $152.5 million and the borrowing base was approximately $166.3 million, including $163.2 million in outstanding principal. | |||||
As of March 31, 2015, 446 life insurance policies owned by White Eagle with an aggregate death benefit of approximately $2.2 billion and an estimated fair value of approximately $314.6 million have been pledged as collateral under the Revolving Credit Facility. | |||||
There are no scheduled repayments of principal prior to maturity. Payments are due upon receipt of death benefits and distributed pursuant to the waterfall as described above. |

Fair Value Measurements | (12) Fair Value Measurements | ||||||||||||||||
We carry investments in life settlements, certain structured settlements, and the Revolving Credit Facility debt at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements are classified based on the following fair value hierarchy: | |||||||||||||||||
Level 1—Valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are accessible at the reporting date. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 2—Valuation is determined from pricing inputs that are other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Observable inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. | |||||||||||||||||
Level 3—Valuation is based on inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Level 3 inputs include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value generally require significant management judgment or estimation. | |||||||||||||||||

The Company values its investment in life settlement portfolio in two classes, non-premium financed and premium financed. In considering the categories, it is generally believed that market participants would require a lower risk premium for policies that were non-premium financed, while a higher risk premium would be required for policies that were premium financed although the Company believes that this risk premium has been declining. | |||||||||||||||||

Following is a description of the methodologies used to estimate the fair values of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and within the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||
Investment in life settlements—The Company has elected to account for the life settlement policies it acquires using the fair value method. The Company uses a present value technique to estimate the fair value of our investments in life settlements, which is a Level 3 fair value measurement as the significant inputs are unobservable and require significant management judgment or estimation. The Company currently uses a probabilistic method of valuing life insurance policies, which we believe to be the preferred valuation method in the industry. The most significant assumptions are the estimates of life expectancy of the insured and the discount rate. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company provides medical records for each insured to independent secondary market life expectancy providers (each, an “LE provider”). Each LE provider reviews and analyzes the medical records and identifies all medical conditions it feels are relevant to the life expectancy determination of the insured. Debits and credits are assigned by each LE provider to the individual’s health based on identified medical conditions. The debit or credit that an LE provider assigns to a medical condition is derived from the experience of mortality attributed to this condition in the portfolio of lives that the LE provider monitors. The health of the insured is summarized by the LE provider into a life assessment of the individual’s life expectancy expressed both in terms of months and in mortality factor. The mortality factor represents the degree to which the given life can be considered more or less impaired than a life having similar characteristics (e.g. gender, age, smoking, etc.). For example, a standard insured (the average life for the given mortality table) would carry a mortality rating of 100%. A similar but impaired life bearing a mortality rating of 200% would be considered to have twice the chance of dying earlier than the standard life relative to the LE provider’s population. Since each provider’s mortality factor is based on its own mortality table, the Company calculates its own factors to apply to the table selected by the Company. | |||||||||||||||||
Beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company began using a modified version of the 2008 Valuation Basic Table (“2008 VBT”), a mortality table developed by the U.S. Society of Actuaries. The mortality table is created based on the expected rates of death among groups categorized by gender, age, and smoking status. Since the Company uses the 2008 VBT, the Company calculates its own mortality factor that, when applied to the 2008 VBT, produces the same life expectancy provided by each LE provider. The resulting mortality factors are then blended to determine a factor for each insured. | |||||||||||||||||
To generate the best estimate probabilistic cash flow stream, a mortality curve is generated by calculating the probability of mortality for each period based on the calculated mortality factors and the death rates from the 2008 VBT. The company modifies the table by incorporating future mortality improvements to better reflect the curves used by the LE providers. | |||||||||||||||||
A discounted present value calculation is then used to determine the value of the policy. If the insured dies earlier than expected, the return will be higher than if the insured dies when expected or later than expected. | |||||||||||||||||
The calculation allows for the possibility that if the insured dies earlier than expected, the premiums needed to keep the policy in force will not have to be paid. Conversely, the calculation also considers the possibility that if the insured lives longer than expected, more premium payments will be necessary. Based on these considerations, each possible outcome is assigned a probability and the range of possible outcomes is then used to create a value for the policy. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company currently obtains its life expectancy reports from two life expectancy report providers, AVS Underwriting LLC (“AVS”) and 21st Services, LLC (“21st Services”). In the first quarter of 2013, 21st Services announced revisions to its underwriting methodology. According to 21st Services, these revisions have generally been understood to lengthen the average reported life expectancy furnished by this life expectancy provider by 19%. As of March 31, 2015, the Company received 535 updated life expectancy reports from 21st Services, of which 503 were used to calculate life expectancy extension. These life expectancies reported an average lengthening of life expectancies of 18.47% and, based on this sample, for the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company increased the life expectancies furnished by 21st Services by 18.47% on the rest of its portfolio of life settlements prior to blending them with the life expectancy reports furnished by AVS. The Company expects to continue to lengthen life expectancies furnished by 21st Services that have not been re-underwritten using their updated methodology. Since the Revolving Credit Facility necessitates that the Company procure updated life expectancies on a periodic basis, the number of policies that are lengthened by the Company in this manner will decrease over time and the fair value calculations in future periods will, accordingly, reflect the actual impact of the revised 21st Services methodology on a policy by policy basis as updated life expectancy reports are procured. | |||||||||||||||||
In August 2014, the U.S. Society of Actuaries released draft tables for the 2014 Valuation Basic Table (“2014 VBT”), which show a lengthening of average life expectancies. The 2014 VBT is expected to be released some time in 2015 and we will continue to monitor the market reaction to the draft tables and to the 2014 VBT once it is released. Future changes in life expectancies could have a material adverse effect on the fair value of our investment in life settlements, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. | |||||||||||||||||

Discount rate | |||||||||||||||||
The discount rate incorporates current information about market interest rates, the credit exposure to the insurance company that issued the life insurance policy and our estimate of the risk premium an investor in the policy would require. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company re-evaluates its discount rates at the end of every reporting period in order to reflect the estimated discount rates that could reasonably be used in a market transaction involving the Company’s portfolio of life insurance policies. In doing so, the Company relies on management insight, engages third party consultants to corroborate its assessment, engages in discussions with other market participants and potential financing sources and extrapolates the discount rate underlying actual sales of policies. | |||||||||||||||||
Due to the Company’s association with the USAO Investigation and certain civil litigation involving the Company, the Company believes that, when given the choice to invest in a policy that was associated with the Company’s premium finance business and a similar policy without such an association, all else being equal, an investor would have generally opted to invest in the policy that was not associated with the Company’s premium finance business. However, since the Company entered into a non-prosecution agreement, investors have required less of a risk premium to transact in policies associated with the Company’s legacy premium finance business. In general, the Company believes that the risk premium an investor would require to transact in a policy that has been premium financed versus a policy without premium financing is lessening in the current market environment and further expects that, with the passage of time, investors will continue to require less of a risk premium to transact in policies associated with its legacy premium finance business. | |||||||||||||||||
Credit exposure of insurance company | |||||||||||||||||
The Company considers the financial standing of the issuer of each life insurance policy. Typically, we seek to hold policies issued by insurance companies that are rated investment grade by the top three credit rating agencies. At March 31, 2015, the Company had eighteen life insurance policies issued by two carriers that were rated non-investment grade as of that date. In order to compensate a market participant for the perceived credit and challenge risks associated with these policies, the Company applied an additional 300 basis point risk premium. | |||||||||||||||||

As of March 31, 2015, the Company owned 632 policies with an aggregate investment in life settlements of $429.6 million. Of these 632 policies, 554 were previously premium financed and are valued using discount rates that range from 16.00% to 24.75%. The remaining 78 policies, which are non-premium financed, are valued using discount rates that range from 15.00% to 21.00%. As of March 31, 2015, the weighted average discount rate calculated based on death benefit used in valuing the policies in our life settlement portfolio was 17.31%. | |||||||||||||||||
The discount rate incorporates current information about market interest rates, the credit exposure to the insurance company that issued the life insurance policy and our estimate of the risk premium an investor in the policy would require. The extent to which the fair value could vary in the near term has been quantified by evaluating the effect of changes in the weighted average discount rate on the death benefit used to estimate the fair value. If the weighted average discount rate were increased or decreased by 1/2 of 1% and the other assumptions used to estimate fair value remained the same, the change in estimated fair value would be as follows (dollars in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||

At the end of each reporting period we re-value the life insurance policies using our valuation model in order to update our estimate of fair value for investments in policies held on our balance sheet. This includes reviewing our assumptions for discount rates and life expectancies as well as incorporating current information for premium payments and the passage of time. | |||||||||||||||||
Structured settlement receivables—All structured settlements that were acquired subsequent to July 1, 2010 were marked to fair value. We made this election because it was our intention to sell these assets within twelve months of acquisition. Structured settlements are purchased at effective yields that are fixed. Purchase discounts are accreted into interest income using the effective-interest method for those structured settlements marked to fair value. As March 31, 2015, the Company had 17 structured settlements with an estimated fair value of $377,000 and an average sales discount rate of 8.66%. | |||||||||||||||||
Revolving Credit Facility debt—In connection with the Revolving Credit Facility, 446 policies are pledged by White Eagle to serve as collateral for its obligations under the facility. Absent an event of default under the Revolving Credit Facility, ongoing borrowings will be used to pay the premiums on these policies and certain approved third party expenses. Proceeds from the policies pledged as collateral will be distributed pursuant to a waterfall. After premium payments and fees to service providers, 100% of the remaining proceeds will be directed to pay outstanding principal and interest on the loan. Generally, after payment of principal and interest, collections from policy proceeds are to be paid to White Eagle up to $76.1 million, then 50% of the remaining proceeds are to be directed to the lenders with the remainder paid to White Eagle. We have elected to account for this long-term debt, which includes the lender’s interest in policy proceeds, using the fair value method. The fair value of the debt is the amount the Company would have to pay to transfer the debt to a market participant in an orderly transaction. We calculated the fair value of the debt using a discounted cash flow model taking into account the stated interest rate of the Revolving Credit Facility and probabilistic cash flows from the pledged policies. Accordingly, our estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we, or holders of the instruments, could realize in a current market exchange. The most significant assumptions are the estimates of life expectancy of the insured and the discount rate. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair values. | |||||||||||||||||
Life expectancy sensitivity analysis of Revolving Credit Facility debt | |||||||||||||||||
A considerable portion of the fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility debt is determined by the timing of receipt of future policy proceeds. Should life expectancies lengthen such that policy proceeds are collected further into the future, the fair value of this debt will decline. Conversely, should life expectancies shorten, the fair value of this debt will increase. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. | |||||||||||||||||
If all of the insured lives in the life settlement portfolio pledged under the Revolving Credit Facility live six months shorter or longer than the life expectancies used to calculate the estimated fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility debt, the change in estimated fair value would be as follows (dollars in thousands): | |||||||||||||||||

Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes- The Company determined that an embedded conversion option in the Convertible Notes was required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under Accounting Standards Codification 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 required the Company to bifurcate the embedded conversion option and record it as a liability at fair value and reduce the debt liability by a corresponding discount of an equivalent amount. The Company used a Black Scholes pricing model that incorporates present valuation techniques and reflect both the time value and the intrinsic value of the embedded conversion option to approximate the fair value of the conversion derivative liability at the end of each reporting period. This model required assumptions as to expected volatility, dividends, terms, and risk free rates. | |||||||||||||||||
In accordance with ASC 815, upon receipt of shareholder approval on June 5, 2014, the Company reclassified the embedded derivative to stockholders’ equity along with unamortized transaction costs proportionate to the allocation of the initial debt discount and the principal amount of the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes continue to be recorded at accreted value up to the par value of the Convertible Notes at maturity. See Note 10, “8.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes.” Although we believe our valuation method is appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value could result in different fair values. | |||||||||||||||||

Lease Agreements | |
The Company leases office space under a lease that commenced on October 1, 2014 and expires on September 30, 2020. The annual base rent is $225,100, with a provision for a 3% increase on each anniversary of the rent commencement date. Rent expense was approximately $94,000 and $126,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Future minimum lease payments for the remainder of 2015 are approximately $171,000. | |
Employment Agreements | |
We have entered into employment agreements with certain of our officers, including with our chief executive officer, whose agreement provides for substantial payments in the event that the executive terminates his employment with us due to a material change in the geographic location where the chief executive officer performs his duties or upon a material diminution of his base salary or responsibilities, with or without cause. These payments are equal to three times the sum of our chief executive officer’s base salary and the average of the three years’ annual cash bonus. | |
On April 26, 2012, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release of Claims (the “Separation Agreement”) with its former chief operating officer, Jonathan Neuman. The Separation Agreement obligates the Company to indemnify Mr. Neuman for his legal expenses. The Company recognized indemnification expenses of $651,000 and $459,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. | |
We do not have any general policies regarding the use of employment agreements, but may, from time to time, enter into such a written agreement to reflect the terms and conditions of employment of a particular named executive officer, whether at the time of hire or thereafter. | |
Litigation | |
In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company establishes an accrued liability for litigation and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. When a loss contingency is not both probable and estimable, the Company does not establish an accrued liability. As a litigation or regulatory matter develops, the Company, in conjunction with any outside counsel handling the matter, evaluates on an ongoing basis whether such matter presents a loss contingency that is probable and estimable. If, at the time of evaluation, the loss contingency related to a litigation or regulatory matter is not both probable and estimable, the matter will continue to be monitored for further developments that would make such loss contingency both probable and estimable. When a loss contingency related to a litigation or regulatory matter is deemed to be both probable and estimable, the Company will establish an accrued liability with respect to such loss contingency and record a corresponding amount of litigation-related expense. The Company will then continue to monitor the matter for further developments that could affect the amount of any such accrued liability. | |
Non-Prosecution Agreement | |
On September 27, 2011, the Company was informed that it was being investigated by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Hampshire (the “USAO Investigation”), focusing on the Company’s premium finance loan business. | |
On April 30, 2012, the Company entered into a Non-Prosecution Agreement (the “Non-Prosecution Agreement”) with the USAO, which agreed not to prosecute the Company for its involvement in the making of misrepresentations on life insurance applications in connection with its premium finance business or any potential securities fraud claims related to its premium finance business. In the Non-Prosecution Agreement, the USAO and the Company agreed among other things, that the following facts are true and correct: (i) at all relevant times (x) certain insurance companies required that the prospective insured applying for a life insurance policy, and sometimes the agent, disclose information relating to premium financing on applications for life insurance policies, and (y) the questions typically required the prospective insured to disclose if he or she intended to seek premium financing in connection with the policy and sometimes required the agent to disclose if he or she was aware of any such intent on the part of the applicant; (ii) in connection with a portion of the Company’s retail operation known as “retail non-seminar” that began in December 2006 and was discontinued in January 2009, Imperial had a practice of disclosing on applications that the prospective insured was seeking premium financing when the life insurance company allowed premium financing from Imperial; however, in certain circumstances, Imperial internal life agents facilitated and/or made misrepresentations on applications that the prospective insured was not seeking premium financing when the insurance carrier was likely to deny the policy on the basis of premium financing; and (iii) to the extent that external agents, brokers and insureds caused other misrepresentations to be made in life insurance applications in connection with the retail non-seminar business, Imperial failed to appropriately tailor controls to prevent potential fraudulent practices in that business. As of March 31, 2015, the Company had 38 policies in its portfolio that once served as collateral for premium finance loans derived through the retail non-seminar business. | |
In connection with the Non-Prosecution Agreement, Imperial voluntarily agreed to terminate its premium finance business, which historically accounted for the majority of the Company’s income and terminated certain senior sales staff associated with the premium finance business. Additionally, the Company paid the United States Government $8.0 million, and agreed to cooperate fully with the USAO’s ongoing investigation and to refrain from and self-report any criminal conduct. The Non-Prosecution Agreement had a term of three years until April 30, 2015. While the Non-Prosecution Agreement effectively resolved the USAO Investigation as it pertains to the Company (subject to the Company’s continuing compliance with its terms), the USAO is continuing to investigate certain individuals formerly employed by the Company and the Company is continuing to incur expenses regarding its indemnification obligations with respect to such individuals. | |
In addition, settlements of certain civil litigation with the Company’s director and officer liability insurance carriers related to the USAO Investigation require Imperial to advance legal fees to and indemnify certain individuals. The obligation to advance and indemnify on behalf of these individuals, while currently unquantifiable, has been substantial and could continue to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Excluding expenses of general external legal service providers, USAO litigation-related fees (inclusive of indemnification and advancement expenses) of $1.9 million and $784,000 were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. | |
SEC Investigation | |
On February 17, 2012, the Company first received a subpoena issued by the staff of the SEC seeking documents from 2007 through the date of the subpoena, generally related to the Company’s premium finance business and corresponding financial reporting. The SEC is investigating whether any violations of federal securities laws have occurred and the Company has been cooperating with the SEC regarding this matter. The Company is unable to predict what action, if any, might be taken in the future by the SEC or its staff as a result of the investigation or what impact, if any, the cost of responding to the SEC might have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company has not established any provision for losses in respect of this matter. | |
Sun Life | |
On April 18, 2013, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (“Sun Life”) filed a complaint against the Company and several of its affiliates in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, entitled Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada v. Imperial Holdings, Inc., et al. (“Sun Life Case”), asserting, among other things, that at least 28 life insurance policies issued by Sun Life and owned by the Company through certain of its subsidiaries were invalid The Sun Life complaint, as amended, asserted the following claims: (1) violations of the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (“RICO”) Act, (2) conspiracy to violate the RICO Act, (3) common law fraud, (3) civil conspiracy, (4) aiding and abetting fraud, (5) civil conspiracy to commit fraud, (6) tortious interference with contractual obligations, and (7) a declaration that the policies issued were void. Following the filing of a motion by the Company to dismiss the Sun Life Case, on December 9, 2014, the Court dismissed counts (2), (4), (5), (6) and (7), with prejudice. The Company then filed a motion for summary judgment on the remaining counts. On February 4, 2015, the Court issued an order (the “Order”) granting the Company’s motion for summary judgment on counts (1) and (3), resulting in the Company prevailing on all counts in the Sun Life Case. On February 26, 2015, Sun Life filed a Notice of Appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit from the District Court’s February 4th Order, which denied Sun Life’s motion to dismiss. | |
On July 29, 2013, the Company filed a separate complaint against Sun Life in United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, entitled Imperial Premium Finance, LLC v. Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (“Imperial Case”), which was subsequently consolidated with the Sun Life Case. The Imperial complaint asserts claims against Sun Life for breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and fraud, and seeks a judgment declaring that Sun Life is obligated to comply with the promises made by it in certain insurance policies. The complaint also seeks compensatory damages of no less than $30 million in addition to an award of punitive damages. On August 23, 2013, Sun Life moved to dismiss the complaint, which was denied by the Court as part of the Order. The trial in the Imperial Case is currently set to commence on August 3, 2015. The Court granted Sun Life an extension up to March 19, 2015 to file an Answer in the Imperial Case. | |
The District Court has stayed the Imperial Case until Sun Life’s appeal is resolved by the Eleventh Circuit. | |
Sanctions Order | |
On April 27, 2012, after the conclusion of a jury trial in the matter styled Steven A. Sciaretta, as Trustee of the Barton Cotton Irrevocable Trust a/k/a the Amended and Restated Barton Cotton Irrevocable Trust v. The Lincoln National Life Insurance Company (“Lincoln”), the defendant, Lincoln, filed a motion seeking sanctions against the Company’s subsidiary, Imperial Premium Finance (“IPF”), a non-party to the litigation, relating to its corporate representative deposition and trial testimony. On May 6, 2013, the Court issued an order sanctioning IPF and ordering it to pay $850,000. On June 4, 2013, IPF filed a Notice of Appeal and oral argument was held before the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals on October 7, 2014. On February 26, 2015, the Eleven Circuit Panel affirmed the District Court’s order. The Company recorded a reserve of $850,000 that is included in other liabilities as of March 31, 2015. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company remitted $850,000 as payment in satisfaction of the sanctions, inclusive of court costs. | |
IRS Investigation | |
The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Criminal Investigation Division notified the Company in February 2014 that it is conducting an investigation related to the Company and its legacy structured settlements business. The Company believes that it has been cooperating with the investigation and is unable, at this time, to predict what action, if any, might be taken in the future by the IRS or what impact, if any, the cost of providing information and documents might have on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. If the investigation results in a determination by the IRS that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under the Internal Revenue Code or regulations thereunder, the Company could incur additional tax liability, restitution payment obligations, penalties, fines or other liabilities, including criminal penalties and fines and a reduction in the Company’s net operating losses, that could have a material adverse effect on the Company, its personnel, its financial condition and its results of operations. The Company has not established any provision for losses in respect to this matter. | |
Class Action Litigation | |
On January 20, 2015, a purported shareholder of the Company filed a putative class action complaint against the Company, and the individual members of the Board of Directors, in the Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit, in and for Palm Beach County, entitled Harry Rothenberg v. Imperial Holdings, Inc., et al. (the “State Court Complaint”), The Rothenberg State Court Complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties of due care and seeks to invalidate the bylaw amendment adopted by the Board of Directors on October 30, 2014, which requires current and former shareholders who wish to file a class or derivative action against the Company, its directors or its officers to first obtain written consent from shareholders beneficially owning at least 3% of the outstanding shares of the Company. On March 2, 2015, the Company filed a motion to dismiss and motion to strike certain allegations in the State Complaint. | |
On April 20, 2015, Mr. Rothenberg filed a Verified Shareholder Class Action and Derivative Complaint (the “Federal Court Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, which names the same defendants and asserts similar claims as in the State Court Complaint. The Federal Court Complaint also alleges violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the 1934 Securities Act, and asserts derivative claims for breach of fiduciary duty, among other claims, based on the previously disclosed IRS Investigation and allegations regarding our prior structured settlement business made in a case styled Michael Lafontant v. Washington Square Financial, LLC, et al. (“Lafontant Complaint”), which was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Company has moved to dismiss the Lafontant Complaint based on contractual arbitration provisions, which is pending an order by the district court. On April 21, 2015, Mr. Rothenberg voluntarily dismissed the State Court Complaint, without prejudice. The Company has not established any provision for losses in respect of this matter | |
Other Litigation | |
The Company is party to various other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Due to the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings, the Company cannot predict the eventual outcome of these matters, and it is reasonably possible that some of them could be resolved unfavorably to the Company. As a result, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations or cash flows in a particular fiscal period could be materially affected by an unfavorable resolution of pending litigation or contingencies. However, the Company believes that the resolution of these other proceedings will not, based on information currently available, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. |
Stockholders_Equity
Stockholders' Equity | 3 Months Ended |

Stockholders' Equity | (15) Stockholders’ Equity |
The Company has reserved an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of common stock under its Omnibus Plan, of which 794,617 options to purchase shares of common stock granted to existing employees were outstanding as of March 31, 2015, and 41,060 shares of restricted stock had been granted to directors under the plan are subject to vesting. | |
During 2014, upon receipt of shareholder approval, the Company reclassified the embedded derivative contained in its Convertible Notes to stockholders’ equity along with unamortized transaction costs proportionate to the allocation of the initial debt discount and the principal amount of the Convertible Notes. This resulted in an increase to additional paid-in-capital of $14.1 million, net of taxes on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2014. See Note 10, 8.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes. | |
In connection with the settlement of derivative litigation, the Company issued 125,628 shares of the Company’s stock, which were issued in the first quarter of 2014 and are included in stockholders’ equity. | |
In connection with the settlement of class litigation filing in connection with the USAO Investigation, the Company issued warrants to purchase two million shares of the Company’s stock into an escrow account in April 2014 and were distributed in October 2014. The estimated fair value at the measurement date of such warrants was $5.4 million, which is included in stockholder’s equity. The warrants have a five-year term from the date of their distribution with an exercise price of $10.75. The Company is obligated to file a registration statement to register the shares underlying the warrants with the SEC if shares of the Company’s common stock have an average daily trading closing price of at least $8.50 per share for a 45 day period. The warrants will be exercisable upon effectiveness of the registration statement. | |
During 2014, the Company awarded 323,500 target performance shares for restricted common stock to its directors and certain employees, of which 150,000 shares are subject to shareholder approval of an amendment to the Omnibus Plan at the Company’s 2015 annual meeting. The issuance of the performance shares is contingent on the Company’s financial performance as well as the performance of the Company’s common stock through June 30, 2016, with the actual shares to be issued ranging between 0 – 150% of the target performance shares. As a result, the Company determined that it is not probable that the performance conditions will be achieved and no related expense was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The performance shares will be subject to a one year vesting period from the date of issuance. | |
Exclusive of those performance shares awarded to our named executive officers that are not subject to shareholder approval of an amendment to the Plan at the Company’s 2015 annual meeting, there were 329,771 securities remaining for future issuance under the Omnibus Plan as of March 31, 2015. | |
During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company adopted ASU No. 2013-11, resulting in an increase to additional paid-in-capital of $6.3 million on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2014. See Note 16, Income Taxes. |

Income Taxes | (16) Income Taxes |
The Company’s provision for income taxes from continuing operations is estimated to result in an annual effective tax rate of approximately 31.8% and 38.8% (before adoption of ASU 2013-11, discussed below) during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company’s quarterly effective income tax rates are based upon the Company’s current estimated annual rate. The Company’s annual effective income tax rate varies based upon the Company’s taxable earnings as well as on a mix of taxable earnings in the various state and foreign jurisdictions. | |
The Company adopted ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (“ASU 2013-11”) effective on January 1, 2014, which required the Company to reclassify a $6.3 million current liability for unrecognized tax benefits to deferred taxes. Adoption of this guidance resulted in the recognition of a $3.7 million tax expense included in the Company’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2014, a $2.6 million reduction in the valuation allowance and an increase to additional paid-in-capital of $6.3 million on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity as of March 31, 2014. | |
In March of 2014, the Company was notified by the IRS of its intention to examine the Company’s tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012. See also “IRS Investigation” in Note 14 regarding the IRS Criminal Investigation Division’s investigation related to the Company’s former structured settlement business. | |
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as to income tax in Florida and other states and foreign jurisdictions in which it operates. |

The Non-Prosecution Agreement expired in accordance with its terms on April 30, 2015. However, the USAO is continuing to investigate certain individuals formerly associated with the Company and the Company is continuing to incur expenses regarding its indemnification and advancement obligations with respect to such individuals. The Company expects to continue to incur these expenses and expenses related to continuing cooperation obligations as the USAO proceeds with its investigation. Ongoing expenses in respect of these obligations, while currently unquantifiable, have been substantial in prior periods and could continue to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. | |
Other Litigation | |
On April 10, 2015 a complaint was filed against the Company’s subsidiary in the Circuit Court of the Twentieth Judicial Circuit in and for St. Clair County, lllinois, styled Kenneth Jennings v. Washington Square Financial, LLC d/b/a Imperial Structured Settlements (“Washington Square”). The plaintiff seeks, in a purported class action, to represent all individuals who sold all or a part of a structured settlement annuity to Washington Square under the lllinois Structured Settlement Protections Act (the “lllinois Act”), where the underlying annuity contract contained an anti-assignment clause, and where a court issued an order under the lllinois Act approving the transaction. The complaint seeks, among other things, a declaration that all such transactions are void and compensatory and punitive damages. The Company has not established any provision for losses in respect of this matter. |

Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments |
In February 2014, the Company issued and sold $70.7 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.50% senior unsecured convertible notes due 2019 (the “Convertible Notes”). Prior to shareholder approval on June 5, 2014 to issue shares of common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes in excess of New York Stock Exchange limits for share issuances without shareholder approval, the Convertible Notes contained an embedded derivative feature. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, Derivatives and Hedging, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet and are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, such as the Convertible Notes, are bifurcated and recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings if they can be reliably measured. The Company determined the fair value of its embedded derivative based upon available market data and unobservable inputs using a Black Scholes pricing model. In accordance with ASC 815, upon receipt of shareholder approval on June 5, 2014, the Company reclassified the embedded derivative to equity along with unamortized transaction costs proportionate to the allocation of the initial debt discount and the principal amount of the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes are recorded at accreted value and will continue to be accreted up to the par value of the Convertible Notes at maturity. See Note 10, 8.50% Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes. | |
Foreign Currency | Foreign Currency |
The Company owns certain foreign subsidiaries formed under the laws of Ireland and Bermuda. These foreign subsidiaries utilize the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Any gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions (transactions denominated in a currency other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency) are included in income. These gains and losses are immaterial to the Company’s financial statements. | |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material. Significant estimates made by management include income taxes, the valuation of investments in life settlements, the valuation of the debt owing under the Revolving Credit Facility, the valuation of equity awards and the valuation of the conversion derivative liability formerly embedded within the Company’s Senior Unsecured Convertible Notes. |

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements | The Company values its investment in life settlement portfolio in two classes, non-premium financed and premium financed. In considering the categories, it is generally believed that market participants would require a lower risk premium for policies that were non-premium financed, while a higher risk premium would be required for policies that were premium financed although the Company believes that this risk premium has been declining. | ||||||||||||||||
