| Principal Business Activity and Significant Accounting Policies | Principal Business Activity and Significant Accounting Policies Principal Business Activity and Principals of Consolidation PetIQ is a leading pet medication and wellness company delivering a smarter way for pet parents to help their pets live their best lives through convenient access to affordable veterinary products and services. We engage with customers through more than 60,000 points of distribution across retail and e-commerce channels with our branded and distributed medications as well as health and wellness items, which are further supported by our world-class medications manufacturing facility in Omaha, Nebraska and health and wellness manufacturing facility in Springville, Utah. Our national veterinarian service platform operates in over 2,600 retail partner locations in 41 states providing cost effective and convenient veterinary wellness services. PetIQ believes that pets are an important part of the family and deserve the best products and care we can provide. PetIQ has two reporting segments: (i) Products; and (ii) Services. The Products segment consists of the manufacturing and distribution business. The Services segment consists of veterinary services, and related product sales, provided by the Company directly to consumers. PetIQ is the managing member of PetIQ Holdings, LLC (“HoldCo”), a Delaware limited liability company, which is the sole member of PetIQ, LLC (“Opco”) and, through HoldCo, operate and control all the business and affairs of Opco. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets; the valuation of property, plant, and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, the valuation of assets and liabilities in connection with acquisitions, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the valuation of inventories, and reserves for legal contingencies. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tiered hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value: Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The categorization of a financial instrument within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, are at cost, which approximates fair value due to their relatively short maturities. A portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Community Veterinary Clinics, LLC d/b/a VIP Petcare (“VIP” and such acquisition, the “VIP Acquisition”) was structured in the form of Contingent Notes. The Contingent Notes began bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.75%, with the balance payable July 17, 2023. The Company fully repaid the Contingent Notes in April 2021 as part of the refinance activity described in Note 5 – Debt. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. All credit card, debit card and electronic transfer transactions that process in less than seven days are classified as cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash accounts in various deposit accounts, the balances of which at times exceeded federal deposit insurance limits during the periods presented. Receivables and Credit Policy Trade receivables due from customers are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 45 days from the invoice date. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer, net of discounts and estimated deductions. The Company does not have a policy for charging interest on overdue customer account balances. The Company provides an allowance for credit losses equal to expected losses. The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience, a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable and known current economic conditions. Payments of trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice. Other receivables consists of various receivables due from vendors, banking institutions, employees, and government agencies. Accounts receivable, net consists of the following as of: $'s in 000's December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 Trade receivables $ 104,612 $ 108,049 Other receivables 13,790 6,405 118,402 114,454 Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts (398) (507) Total accounts receivable, net $ 118,004 $ 113,947 Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined on the FIFO method and includes estimated rebate amounts. The Company maintains reserves for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory based on the difference between the cost of inventory and its estimated net realizable value. In estimating the reserves, management considers factors such as excess or slow-moving inventories, product expiration dating, and market conditions. Changes in these conditions may result in additional reserves. Major components of inventories consist of the following as of: $'s in 000's December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 Raw materials $ 17,464 $ 16,564 Work in progress 2,234 1,650 Finished goods 122,907 78,226 Total inventories $ 142,605 $ 96,440 Property, Plant, and Equipment Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. No impairment charge was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. Depreciation and amortization is provided using the straight-line method, based on estimated useful lives of the assets, except for leasehold improvements and finance leased assets which are depreciated over the shorter of the expected useful life or the lease term. Depreciation and amortization expense is recorded in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, depending on the use of the asset. The estimated useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are as follows: Computer equipment and software 3 years Vehicle and vehicle accessories 3-5 years Buildings 33 years Equipment 2-15 years Leasehold improvements 2-15 years Furniture and fixtures 5-10 years Goodwill and Intangible Assets Goodwill is the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of specifically identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities in a business combination. Intangible assets acquired are recorded at estimated fair value. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, and at any time when events suggest an impairment more likely than not occurred. To assess goodwill for impairment, the Company, depending on relevant facts and circumstances, performs either a qualitative assessment or a quantitative analysis utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation model. In performing the qualitative assessment, the Company evaluates relevant factors such as macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors and overall financial performance, as well as company and reporting unit specific items. If, after assessing these qualitative factors, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the carrying value of the reporting unit is less than its fair value, then no further testing is required. In performing a quantitative analysis, the Company determines the fair value of a reporting unit using management’s assumptions about future cash flows based on long-range strategic plans. This approach incorporates many assumptions including discount rates and future growth rates. In the event the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeded its fair value, an impairment loss would be recognized. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company's market capitalization declined significantly, driven by rising interest rates and macroeconomic conditions. Additionally, the Company has slowed its expansion for the Services reporting segment. Based on these events, the Company concluded that an indicator of impairment existed for the Services segment related to its Goodwill during the three months ended September 30, 2022. See Note 4 - Intangible Assets and Goodwill for further information. As a result of the Company's impairment test, the Company determined that the fair value of the Services reporting unit was less than it's carrying value, resulting in a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $47.3 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. No impairment charge was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment utilizing either a qualitative assessment or a quantitative analysis. For a qualitative assessment, the Company identifies and considers relevant key factors, events, and circumstances to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. The key factors considered include macroeconomic, industry, and market conditions, as well as the asset's actual and forecasted results. For the quantitative impairment tests, the Company compares the carrying amounts to the current fair market values. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to reflect the pattern over which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed. Definite-lived intangible assets are also evaluated for impairment when impairment indicators are present. Due to aforementioned goodwill impairment, during the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred for certain amortizable intangible assets and conducted Step 1 of impairment testing utilizing undiscounted cash flows. No additional impairment was recorded as a result of this test or was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020. Convertible Debt On May 19, 2020, the Company issued $143.8 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”). See Note 5 – “Debt.” Simultaneously, with the issuance of the Notes, we bought capped call options from certain financial institutions to minimize the impact of potential dilution of our Class A common stock upon conversion of the Notes. The premium for the capped call options was recorded as additional paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheets as the options are settleable in our Class A common stock. Revenue Recognition When Performance Obligations Are Satisfied A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account for revenue recognition. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligations are product sales and the delivery of veterinary services. Revenue is generally recognized for product sales on a point in time basis when product control is transferred to the customer. In general, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms, as the customer can direct the use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset at this point in time. The Company determined that certain products manufactured to a customer’s specifications do not have an alternative future use at a reasonable profit margin due to costs associated with reworking, transporting and repackaging these products. These products are produced subject to purchase orders that include an enforceable right to payment. Therefore the Company determined that revenue on these products would be recognized over time, as the products are produced. This represents a minor subset of the products the Company manufactures. Revenue for services is recognized over time as the service is delivered, typically over a single day. Payment is typically rendered at the time of service. Customer contracts generally do not include more than one performance obligation. When a contract does contain more than one performance obligation, we allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The standalone selling price for each distinct good is generally determined by directly observable data. The Company began offering subscription based veterinary service plans to customers of the Services segment in 2021, however total activity during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was immaterial. The performance obligations in our contracts are satisfied within one year. As such, we have not disclosed the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations as of December 31, 2022 and 2021. Variable Consideration In addition to fixed contract consideration, most contracts include some form of variable consideration. The most common forms of variable consideration include discounts, rebates, and sales returns and allowances. Variable consideration is treated as a reduction in revenue when product revenue is recognized. Depending on the specific type of variable consideration, we use either the expected value or most likely amount method to determine the variable consideration. We believe there will not be significant changes to our estimates of variable consideration when any related uncertainties are resolved with our customers. The Company reviews and updates its estimates and related accruals of variable consideration each period based on the terms of the agreements, historical experience, and any recent changes in the market. Any uncertainties in the ultimate resolution of variable consideration due to factors outside of the Company’s influence are typically resolved within a short timeframe therefore not requiring any additional constraint on the variable consideration. Trade marketing expense, consisting primarily of customer pricing allowances and merchandising funds are offered through various programs to customers and are designed to promote our products. They include the cost of in-store product displays, feature pricing in retailers' advertisements and other temporary price reductions. These programs are offered to our customers both in fixed and variable amounts. The ultimate cost of these programs depends on retailer performance and is subject to management estimates. Certain retailers require the payment of product introductory fees in order to obtain space for the Company's products on the retailer's store shelves. This cost is typically a lump sum and is determined using the expected value based on the contract between the two parties. Both trade marketing expense and product introductory fees are recognized as reductions of revenue at the time the transfer of control of the associated products occurs. Accruals for expected payouts, or amounts paid in advance, under these programs are included as accounts payable or other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Significant Payment Terms Our customer contracts identify the product, quantity, price, payment and final delivery terms. Payment terms usually include early pay discounts. We grant payment terms consistent with industry standards. Although some payment terms may be more extended, terms beyond one year are not typically granted at contract inception. As a result, we do not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component because the period between our transfer of a promised good or service to a customer and the customer’s payment for that good or service is typically one year or less. Shipping and other costs All shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are included in the cost of sales. This includes shipping and handling costs after control over a product has transferred to a customer. Sales tax collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities is not included in revenue and is reflected as a liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Warranties & Returns PetIQ provides all customers with a standard or assurance type warranty. Either stated or implied, the Company provides assurance the related products will comply with all agreed-upon specifications and other warranties provided under the law. No significant services beyond an assurance warranty are provided to customers. The Company does not grant a general right of return. However, customers may return defective or non-conforming products. Additionally customers from time to time will negotiate certain return provisions to facilitate seasonal retail inventory changes or to reset placement within stores. Customer remedies may include either a cash refund or an exchange of the product. As a result, the right of return and related refund liability is estimated and recorded as a reduction in revenue. This return estimate is reviewed and updated each period and is based on historical sales and return experience. Contract balances Contract asset and liability balances as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 are immaterial. The Company does not have significant deferred revenue or unbilled receivable balances. Cost of Services Cost of Services are comprised of all service and product costs related to the delivery of veterinary services, including but not limited to, salaries and contract costs of veterinarians, technicians and other clinic based personnel, transportation and delivery costs, rent, occupancy costs, supply costs, depreciation and amortization of clinic assets, certain marketing and promotional expenses and costs of goods sold. Research and Development and Advertising Costs Research and development and advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Research and development costs amounted to $2.1 million, $8.0 million, and $2.3 million and advertising costs were $20.1 million, $16.2 million, and $10.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Collaboration Agreements Through the Perrigo Animal Health Acquisition, we entered into a product development and asset purchase agreement with a third party for certain product formulations in development by the third party. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company opted out of the arrangement for two of the product formulations, which reduced the amount potentially payable under the agreement. The Company may make payments of up to $3.3 million over the course of the next several years contingent on achievement of certain development and regulatory approval milestones on the remaining product formulation in development. Product development costs are expensed as incurred or as milestone payments become probable. There can be no assurance that this product will be approved by the FDA on the anticipated schedule or at all. Consideration paid after FDA approval will be capitalized and amortized to cost of goods sold over the economic life of each product. The expenses paid prior to FDA approval will be included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company accrued $2.0 million in research and development expense within accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets related to the agreement as a milestone was determined to be probable during the year ended December 31, 2021. The amount was paid during the year ended December 31, 2022. There were no expenses incurred under the agreement for the periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2020. Litigation The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims, litigation, investigations and contingencies arising out of the ordinary course of business. If the likelihood of an adverse legal outcome is determined to be probable and the amount of loss is estimable, then a liability is accrued in accordance with accounting guidance for Contingencies. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, is disclosed. The Company consults with both internal and external legal counsel related to litigation. See Note 13 for more information. Stock based compensation The Company expenses employee share-based awards under ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires compensation cost for the grant-date fair value of share-based awards to be recognized over the requisite service period. Stock options granted to executives and other employees are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. See Note 9 for more information. Accounting for Income Taxes The Company uses the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred taxes are measured using rates expected to apply to taxable income in years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We recognize deferred tax assets to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company uses a two-step process for the measurement of uncertain tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken in a tax return. The first step is a determination of whether the tax position should be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The second step determines the measurement of the tax position. The Company records potential interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. Interest expense, net Interest expense, net, is comprised primarily of interest expense related to (i) our debt agreements, (ii) unused line fees, (iii) amortization of deferred loan fees and discounts, (iv) finance lease obligations and the mortgage note outstanding, offset by interest income earned on our demand deposits and other assets. Interest expense was $28.2 million, $24.7 million, and $22.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively, offset by $0.8 million, $0.0 million, and $0.0 million of interest income, respectively. Non-controlling interest The non-controlling interests on the consolidated statements of operations represents the portion of earnings or loss attributable to the economic interest in the Company’s subsidiary, HoldCo, held by the non-controlling holders of Class B common stock and limited liability company interests in HoldCo. Non-controlling interests on the consolidated balance sheet represents the portion of net assets of the Company attributable to the non-controlling holders of Class B common stock and Limited Liability Company interests in HoldCo. Loss Per Share Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to PetIQ, Inc. by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to PetIQ, Inc., adjusted as necessary for the impact of potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period and the impact of securities that would have a dilutive effect on loss per share. See Note 8 for further discussion. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements / Adopted Accounting Standard Updates From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the Accounting Standards Codification are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) In 2022, we adopted ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832) Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance, which requires certain footnote disclosure of assistance received from government entities. Certain states and localities we operate in offer various business incentives related to investment or job creation which we may qualify for. The Company determined there was no material impact on the Company's Financial Statements or existing footnote disclosures for the current period. |
