The Company | 1. The Company Revolution Lighting Technologies, Inc., together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Revolution”, “we”, “us” or “our”), is a leader in the de s Tri-State E-Lighting, All-Around We generate revenue by selling lighting products for use in the commercial, industrial and government markets, which include vertical markets such as military, municipal, commercial office, industrial, warehouse, education, hospitality, retail, healthcare, multi-family and signage-media-accent markets. We market and distribute our products globally through networks of distributors, independent sales agencies and representatives, electrical supply companies, as well as internal marketing and sales forces. Our operations consist of one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Lighting Products and Solutions (principally LED fixtures and lamps). Basis of presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K In the opinion of management, these accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the dates and periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Revolution Lighting Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to valuation of receivables and inventories, purchase price allocation of acquired businesses, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, income taxes and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending on December 31, 2017, or for any other future period. Our business exhibits some seasonality, with net sales being affected by the impact of weather and seasonal demand on construction and installation programs, particularly during the winter months. Because of these seasonal factors, we have historically experienced increasing revenue as the year progresses. Sales Tax Revenue We record sales tax revenue on a gross basis (included in both “Revenue” and “Cost of sales” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations). Revenues from sales tax were $1.1 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $3.0 million and $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Liquidity and Capital Resources On January 26, 2017, we amended the Revolving Credit Facility which enabled us to borrow up to $50.0 million on a revolving basis, based upon specified percentages of eligible receivables and inventory, which matures on January 26, 2020. See Note 7. Our liquidity as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $8.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, which consisted of cash and cash equivalents of $0.9 million in both periods, and additional borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility of $7.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Historically, our significant shareholder, RVL 1 LLC (“RVL”), and its affiliates have been a significant source of financing, and they continue to support our operations. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had working capital of $58.5 million and $51.3 million, respectively. We believe we have adequate resources to meet our cash requirements for the foreseeable future.
