Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1)
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
hhgregg, Inc. (the “Company” or “hhgregg”) is a specialty retailer of home appliances, televisions, computers, consumer electronics, home entertainment furniture, mattresses, fitness equipment and related services operating under the name hhgregg. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had 228 stores located in Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The Company operates in one reportable segment.
Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all necessary adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, for a fair presentation of such data. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of hhgregg and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 20, 2013.
The consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for a full year. The Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the assets and liabilities and the reporting of sales and expenses to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of hhgregg and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gregg Appliances, Inc. (“Gregg Appliances”). Gregg Appliances has a wholly-owned subsidiary, HHG Distributing LLC (“HHG Distributing”), which has no assets or operations.
 
(2)
Fair Value Measurements
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable—trade, accounts receivable—other, accounts payable and customer deposits approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Any outstanding amount on the Company’s line of credit approximates fair value as the interest rate is market based.

Net Loss per Share
Net loss per basic and diluted share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares. When the Company reports net income, the calculation of net income per diluted share excludes shares underlying outstanding stock options and restricted stock units with exercise prices that exceed the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the period and certain options and restricted stock units with unrecognized compensation cost, as the effect would be antidilutive. Potential dilutive common shares are composed of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and restricted stock units. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the diluted loss per common share calculation represents the weighted average common shares outstanding with no additional dilutive shares as the Company incurred a net loss for the respective periods.
The following table presents net loss per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Revolving Credit Facility
$

 
$

The capacity for borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility is $300 million, subject to borrowing base availability. The facility expires on March 29, 2016.
Interest on borrowings (other than Eurodollar rate borrowings) is payable monthly at a fluctuating rate based on the bank’s prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Interest on Eurodollar rate borrowings is payable on the last day of each “interest period” applicable to such borrowing or on the three month anniversary of the beginning of such “interest period” for interest periods greater than three months. The unused line rate is determined based on the amount of the daily average of the outstanding borrowings for the immediately preceding calendar quarter period (the “Daily Average”). For a Daily Average greater than or equal to 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.375%. For a Daily Average less than 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.50%. The Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by Gregg Appliances’

8


wholly-owned subsidiary, HHG Distributing, which has no assets or operations. The guarantee is full and unconditional and Gregg Appliances has no other subsidiaries.
Pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility, the borrowing base is equal to the sum of (i) the lesser of (a) 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of all eligible inventory of Gregg Appliances or (b) 75% of the net book value of such eligible inventory and (ii) 90% of all commercial and credit card receivables of Gregg Appliances, in each case subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria.
Under the Revolving Credit Facility, Gregg Appliances is not required to comply with any financial maintenance covenant unless “excess availability” is less than the greater of (i) 10.0% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit or (ii) $20.0 million during the continuance of which event Gregg Appliances is subject to compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.
Pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility, if Gregg Appliances has “excess availability” of less than 12.5% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit, it may, in certain circumstances more specifically described in the Revolving Credit Facility, become subject to cash dominion control.
The Revolving Credit Facility places limitations on the ability of Gregg Appliances to, among other things, incur debt, create other liens on its assets, make investments, sell assets, pay dividends, undertake transactions with affiliates, enter into merger transactions, enter into unrelated businesses, open collateral locations outside of the United States, or enter into consignment assignments or floor plan financing arrangements. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains various customary representations and warranties, financial and collateral reporting requirements and other affirmative and negative covenants. Gregg Appliances was in compliance with the restrictions and covenants in the Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2013.
As of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, Gregg Appliances had no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, Gregg Appliances had $4.9 million of letters of credit outstanding, which expire through December 31, 2013. The total borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $220.8 million and $189.8 million as of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, respectively. The interest rate based on the bank’s prime rate as of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 was 4.25%.

Stock-based Compensation
Stock Options
On April 2, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved a one-time voluntary stock option exchange program (the "Offer") as amended on April 17, 2013. On April 2, 2013, the Company commenced the Offer, which allowed employees to surrender all outstanding and unexercised stock options, whether vested or unvested, that were granted subsequent to July 18, 2007, (the “Eligible Options”) in a one-for-one exchange for new options (the “New Options”). Under the Offer, employees who chose to participate would receive New Options with an exercise price per share equal to the greater of (a) $10.00 or (b) the closing price of the Company's Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the new option grant date. Additionally, the Offer did not allow partial tenders of any one particular option grant, however employees could choose to exchange some but not all Eligible Option grants held by any optionee. Options granted prior to July 19, 2007 were not eligible for exchange.
The Exchange Offer expired on April 30, 2013. Pursuant to the Exchange Offer, a total of 58 eligible participants tendered and the Company accepted for cancellation, options to purchase an aggregate of 898,665 shares of the Company's common stock. The eligible stock options that were accepted for cancellation represented approximately 31% of the options eligible for participation in the Exchange Offer. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Amended Exchange Offer, on May 1, 2013, the Company issued 898,665 stock options in exchange for the tendered stock options. The Company will recognize the incremental expense resulting from this exchange, aggregating $1.4 million, over the three-year vesting period in accordance with the Exchange Offer.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company granted options for 1,704,805 shares of common stock under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan to certain employees and directors of the Company. The options vest in equal amounts over a three-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant and expire 7 years from the date of the grant. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
The weighted-average estimated fair value of options granted to employees and directors under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan was $7.05 during the three months ended June 30, 2013, using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted average assumptions:

Time Vested Restricted Stock Units
During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company granted 27,237 time vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan to certain directors of the Company. The RSUs vest three years from the date of grant. Upon vesting, the outstanding number of RSUs will be converted into shares of common stock. RSUs are forfeited if they have not vested before the employment of the participant terminates for any reason other than death or total permanent disability or certain other circumstances as described in such participant’s RSU agreement. Upon death or disability, the participant is entitled to receive a portion of the award based upon the period of time lapsed between the date of grant of the RSU and the termination of employment. The fair value of RSU awards is based on the Company’s stock price at the close of the market on the date of grant. The weighted average grant date fair value for the RSUs issued during the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $14.32.

ITEM 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our MD&A is presented in five sections:
Overview
Critical Accounting Polices
Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Contractual Obligations
Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained herein and the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on May 20, 2013.
Overview
hhgregg, Inc. is a specialty retailer of home appliances, televisions, computers, consumer electronics, home entertainment furniture, mattresses, fitness equipment and related services operating under the name hhgregg. As of June 30, 2013, we operated 228 stores in Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. References to fiscal years in this report relate to the respective 12 month period ended March 31. Our 2014 fiscal year is the 12 month period ending on March 31, 2014.
Throughout our MD&A, we refer to comparable store sales. Comparable store sales is comprised of net sales at stores in operation for at least 14 full months, including remodeled and relocated stores, as well as net sales for our e-commerce site. The method of calculating comparable store sales varies across the retail industry, and our method of calculating comparable store sales may not be the same as other retailers’ methods.
This overview section is divided into four sub-sections discussing our operating strategy and performance, store development strategy, business strategy and core philosophies and seasonality.
Operating Strategy and Performance. We focus the majority of our floor space, advertising expense and distribution infrastructure on the marketing, delivery and installation of a wide selection of premium appliance and consumer electronics products. We display nearly 350 models of major appliances and 100 models of flat panel televisions in our stores with a broad assortment of models in the middle- to upper-end of product price ranges. Appliance and consumer electronics sales comprised 86% and 89% of our net sales mix for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
We strive to differentiate ourselves through our customer purchase experience starting with a highly-trained, consultative commissioned sales force which educates our customers on the features and benefits of our products, followed by rapid product delivery and installation, and ending with post-sales support services. We carefully monitor our competition to ensure that our prices are competitive in the market place. Our experience has been that informed customers often choose to buy a more heavily-featured product once they understand the applicability and benefits of its features. Heavily-featured products typically carry higher average selling prices and higher margins than less-featured, entry-level price point products.
In response to the declines in our overall comparable store sales largely resulting from the performance of the consumer electronics category, we have developed three major initiatives for fiscal 2014, to reshape our sales mix, expand our base of customers and enhance our service offerings.
Our first initiative for fiscal 2014 is to reshape our sales mix through a continued increase in focus on the appliance category as well as the introduction of new products and categories. Our sales in the appliance category have increased on a comparative basis over the past eight quarters, and we have continued to gain market share in our markets. To maintain this growth, we plan to continue to place greater emphasis on appliances in our marketing strategies and continue to improve on our service offerings within the appliance category. We will also focus on increasing our average sales price through the promotion of kitchen packages. We also plan to increase our sales in this category through the promotion of hhgregg rebate gift card incentives for customers to use on future purchases. We expect that as the U.S. housing market and general economy continues to improve, as indicated by June 2013 U.S. Housing Start-Up's experiencing a 18% increase for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2013 over the prior year comparable period, the appliance industry will experience increases in demand. Additionally, during fiscal 2013, we tested and launched new products and categories, including home entertainment furniture and home

12


fitness products. Based on the success of testing an expanded furniture assortment, we plan to rollout an expanded offering of furniture chain wide by Labor Day. Additionally, we expect to rollout new mid-price product offerings of bedding and fitness equipment. The consumer electronics category will continue to be an important category for us, but our emphasis will be on larger screen sizes of televisions and areas of the consumer electronics category that we believe we can add value to the sale with our sales force. Within the consumer electronics category, we plan to improve our balance of gross profit and market share through positioning our new assortment strategy. Our ultimate goal of reshaping our sales mix is to lift the average unit volumes of our stores.
Our second initiative for fiscal 2014 is to expand our customer base through increased credit offerings, creating a new advertising campaign and focusing greater attention on promoting compelling offers of consumer electronics to drive traffic to our stores. Over the past 12 months, our non-recourse private label credit card penetration has increased 440 basis points to 34%. We continue to encourage the use of the card, not only through in store payment options, but through offers such as our 5% discount on qualifying purchases. In addition to our private label credit card, we also plan to roll out "lease to own" options through a third party provider to the majority of our stores by the end of the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2014. This will allow us to offer credit offerings to customers who historically had been turned down for credit through our private label card. Additionally, we plan to test a seamless secondary finance offering for the lower-middle income consumer. We believe that enhancing our credit offerings will generate greater brand loyalty, higher average sales per transaction, increased premium service plan sales, and better serve our customers. To supplement our initiatives to expand our customer base we selected a new advertising agency to assist us in delivering the marketing messages necessary to execute on our initiatives. We plan to launch a new advertising campaign during the second fiscal quarter of 2014. We also plan to utilize innovations in consumer electronics to drive additional customer traffic.
Our third initiative for fiscal 2014 is to enhance our service offerings, with particular emphasis on our website capabilities. By partnering with a third party, we expect to more than double our product assortment online through an expanded aisle concept by carrying products online that are not available in stores. We also plan to update our mobile commerce site by allowing greater functionality, including transacting through the site. Additionally, we plan to enhance the in-store customer experience by implementing a new point of sale system, which will not only have new capabilities, but expedite the check-out process to decrease the time to complete a sale. We also plan to continue to improve our customer service by raising the standards of execution by our sales team members. Along with additional training, we will also be adding tablet technology to our delivery drivers enabling greater communication between the delivery driver and customer. We believe this will continue to differentiate us in our commitment to be best-in-class in home delivery and installation.
Store Development Strategy. Over the past several years, we have adhered closely to a development strategy of adding stores to metropolitan markets in clusters to achieve rapid market share penetration and more efficiently leverage our distribution network, advertising and regional management costs. Our expansion plans include looking for new markets where we believe there is significant underlying demand for stores, typically in areas that have historically demonstrated above-average economic growth, strong household incomes and growth in new housing starts and/or remodeling activity. Our markets typically include most or all of our major competitors. We plan to continue to follow our approach of building store density in each major market and distribution area, which in the past has helped us to improve our market share and realize operating efficiencies.
Our near term expectations for the current fiscal year will be to significantly slow our store growth and shift the balance of our focus to sales and profit productivity in our existing store base. We plan to focus our energy and investments on enhancing our store productivity within our existing markets through growth in both new and existing businesses, as well as increasing our focus on large deliverable home products, along with growing our competencies with our e-commerce platform.
In the three months ended June 30, 2013, we relocated one store and began construction for three stores relocating in the second fiscal quarter.
Business Strategy and Core Philosophies. Our business strategy is focused around offering our customers a superior customer purchase experience. From the time the customers walk in the door, they experience a well-designed, customer-friendly store. Our stores are brightly lit and have clearly distinguished departments that allow our customers to find what they are looking for. We greet and assist our customers with our highly-trained consultative sales force, who educate the customers about the different product features.
We believe our products are rich in features and innovation. We believe that customers find it helpful to have someone explain the features and benefits of a product as this assistance allows them the opportunity to buy the product that most closely matches their needs. We focus our product assortment on big box items requiring in-home delivery and installation in order to utilize our service offerings. We follow up on the customer purchase experience by offering next-day delivery on many of our products and in-home installation service.

13


While we believe many of our product offerings are considered essential items by our customers, other products and certain features are viewed as discretionary purchases. As a result, our results of operations are susceptible to a challenging macro-economic environment. Factors such as changes in consumer confidence, unemployment, consumer credit availability and the condition of the housing market have negatively impacted our core product categories and added volatility to our overall business. As consumers show a more cautious approach to purchases of discretionary items, customer traffic and spending patterns continue to be difficult to predict. By providing a knowledgeable consultative sales force, delivery capabilities, credit offerings and expanded product offerings, we believe we offer our customers a differentiated value proposition.
Retail appliance sales are correlated to the housing industry and housing turnover. As more people purchase existing homes in the market, appliance sales tend to trend upward. Conversely, when demand in the housing market declines, appliance sales are also negatively impacted. The appliance industry has benefited from increased innovation in energy efficient products. While these energy efficient products typically carry a higher average selling price than traditional products, they save the consumer significant dollars in annual energy savings. Average unit selling prices of major appliances are not expected to change dramatically in the foreseeable future.
The consumer electronics industry depends on new product innovations to drive sales and profitability. Innovative, heavily-featured products are typically introduced at relatively high price points. Over time, price points are gradually reduced to drive consumption. Accordingly, there has been consistent price compression in flat panel televisions for equivalent screen sizes in recent years. As new technology has not been sufficient to keep demand constant, the industry has seen falling demand, gross margin rate declines, and average selling price declines. Over the past few months, we have proactively shifted our focus towards larger screen sizes with higher profit margins, which has resulted in lost market share in the consumer electronics category, as we offered fewer smaller screen size televisions. Other consumer electronics categories have also experienced significant demand pressure. Cameras, camcorders, mp3 players, and GPS devices have been largely replaced by the use of smart phones. As such, we continue to shift our product mix away from these categories and into the computing and wireless category. In future years, we will continue to evaluate our mix of product offerings in the consumer electronics category to maximize profit margins without significant loss of market share, while also featuring key opening price points to drive traffic.
The computing and wireless product category drives traffic into our stores. As a result, we plan to continue to enhance our offerings of such products. We have fully rolled out the offering of Apple iPod and Apple iPad products to all stores.
In addition to testing new products in existing categories, we have also expanded our product assortment within the home products category, which fit our core competencies, including home entertainment furniture and fitness equipment. We will continue to refine our assortment in this category as we learn more about their success in our stores.
We are also testing additional credit offerings for our consumers. As over one-third of our sales today are transacted on the hhgregg private label credit card, we want to expand our consumer base to allow new consumers to shop in our stores. We expect to add a "lease to own" program through a third party provider to a majority of our stores by the end of the fiscal second quarter of 2014, and expect to test a secondary financing offer for the lower-middle income consumer. We expect these programs will be non-recourse to the Company through the use of third party solutions.
Seasonality. Our business is seasonal, with a higher portion of net sales and operating profit realized during the quarter that ends December 31 due to the overall demand for consumer electronics during the holiday shopping season. Appliance revenue is impacted by seasonal weather patterns, but is less seasonal than our consumer electronics business and helps to offset the seasonality of our overall business.

Critical Accounting Policies
We describe our critical accounting policies and estimates in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 20, 2013. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since the end of fiscal 2013.

Comprised of net sales at stores in operation for at least 14 full months, including remodeled and relocated stores, as well as net sales for our e-commerce site.
Net loss was $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $5.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the comparable prior year period. The decrease in net loss for the three month period ended June 30, 2013 was largely due to a comparable store sales increase of 0.8%, a decrease in SG&A as a percentage of net sales and a decrease in net advertising expense as a percentage of net sales, offset by a decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales.
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased 7.2% to $524.9 million from $489.9 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase in net sales for the three month period was the result of a comparable store sales increase of 0.8% and the net addition of 18 stores during the past 12 months.
Net sales mix and comparable store sales percentage changes by product category for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

The increase in comparable store sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was driven primarily by an increase in comparable store sales in the appliances, computing and wireless and home products categories, partially offset by a decline in the consumer electronics category. The appliance category increase in comparable store sales was driven by an increase in both the average selling price and units sold. The growth in the computing and wireless category was led by increased demand for tablets, partially offset by a decline in mobile phones and notebook computers. The increase in comparable store sales for the home products category was primarily a result of a double digit comparable store sales increase in mattresses, in addition to sales from the introduction of furniture and fitness equipment categories. The consumer electronics category comparable store sales decline was driven primarily by a double digit comparable store sales decrease in televisions, largely resulting from our strategy of offering fewer entry level models.
Gross profit margin, expressed as gross profit as a percentage of net sales, decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to 29.5% from 29.9% for the comparable prior year period. The decrease was largely due to decreases in gross profit margin rates in the consumer electronics and computing and wireless categories, partially offset by a slight increase in gross profit margin rate in the appliance category.
SG&A expense, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 152 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the prior year period. The decrease in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was largely a result of decreases in wage expense, employee benefit expense and occupancy costs as a percentage of net sales. The decrease was due to continued cost cutting measures implemented in the second quarter of the prior fiscal year, coupled with the leveraging effect of the net sales increase.
Net advertising expense, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 70 basis points during the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the prior year period. The decrease as a percentage of net sales was driven largely by the leveraging effect of the net sales increase and decreased advertising spend in comparable markets.
Depreciation expense, as a percentage of net sales, increased 18 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the prior year period. The increase as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to the capital spend associated with the 18 new stores opened during the past 12 months.
Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased to 39.3% from 40.7% in the comparable prior year period. The decrease in the effective income tax rate is primarily the result of higher state income tax credits recognized in fiscal 2013.  The additional state income tax credits increased our effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 due to the net loss recognized.

Our liquidity requirements arise primarily from our need to fund working capital requirements and capital expenditures. We make capital expenditures principally to fund our expansion strategy, which includes, among other things, investments in new stores and new distribution facilities, remodeling and relocation of existing stores, as well as information technology and other infrastructure-related projects.
During fiscal 2014, we plan to open a limited number of stores in existing markets and relocate six to eight stores. In addition, we plan to continue to invest in our infrastructure, including management information systems and distribution capabilities, as well as incur capital remodeling and improvement costs. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2014 will be funded through cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our Amended Revolving Credit Facility and tenant allowances from landlords.

16


Cash Used in Operating Activities. Net cash used in operating activities primarily consists of net income as adjusted for increases or decreases in working capital and non-cash charges such as depreciation, deferred taxes and stock compensation expense. Cash used in operating activities was $17.2 million and $48.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in cash used in operating activities is primarily due to a decrease in our net investment in merchandise inventories (merchandise inventories less accounts payable) and the net change in our other current operating assets and liabilities, the decrease in cash received from landlords for tenant allowances due to opening less stores in the current period compared to the prior period, and the impact of the net change in our income tax receivable/payable due to the decreased net loss experienced in the current quarter compared to the previous comparable quarter. The net change in other current operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of differences in timing of customer sales and vendor payments.
Cash Used In Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $5.4 million and $15.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is due to less purchases of property and equipment associated with the opening of new stores. In the three months ended June 30, 2013, we relocated one store and began construction for three stores relocating in the second fiscal quarter. In the three months ended June 30, 2012, we opened two new stores, and had construction in progress on 19 new stores to be opened in the following quarters in fiscal 2013.
Cash (Used In) Provided by Financing Activities. Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was ($2.9) million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease is due to a decrease in funds provided by bank overdrafts of $13.2 million and a decrease in funds provided by the exercise of stock options of $1.6 million, offset by a decrease in funds used for treasury stock repurchases of $0.9 million, and an increase in net borrowings on an inventory financing facility of $2.5 million.
Revolving Credit Facility. The capacity for borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility was $300 million, subject to borrowing base availability. The facility was set to expire on March 29, 2016. On July 29, 2013, we amended the terms of the Company's Revolving Credit Facility (the “Amended Facility”) to increase the maximum credit available to $400 million, subject to borrowing base availability, and extend the term of the facility to expire on July 29, 2018.
Interest on borrowings (other than Eurodollar rate borrowings) is payable monthly at a fluctuating rate based on the bank's prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on the average quarterly excess availability. Interest on Eurodollar rate borrowings is payable on the last day of each “interest period” applicable to such borrowing or on the three month anniversary of the beginning of such “interest period” for interest periods greater than three months. The unused line rate was determined based on the amount of the daily average of the outstanding borrowings for the immediately preceding calendar quarter period (the “Daily Average”). For a Daily Average greater than or equal to 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate was 0.375%. For a Daily Average less than 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate was 0.50%. Under the Amended Facility, the unused line rates were amended to 0.250% and 0.375%, respectively. The Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by Gregg Appliances' wholly-owned subsidiary, HHG Distributing, which has no assets or operations. The guarantee is full and unconditional and Gregg Appliances has no other subsidiaries.
Pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility, prior to amendment, the borrowing base was equal to the sum of (i) the lesser of) 90% of the netorderly liquidation value of all eligible inventory fo Gregg Appliances or (b) 75% of the net book value of such eligible inventory and (ii) 90% of all commercial and credit card receivables of Gregg Appliances, in each case subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria.
Under the Amended Facility, the borrowing base is equal to the sum of (i) 90% of all commercial accounts, (ii) 90% of all commercial and credit card receivables of Gregg Appliances and (iii) 90% of the net recovery percentage of the eligible inventory multiplied by the value of such eligible inventory consistent with the most recent appraisal of such eligible inventory, in each case subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria.
Under the Revolving Credit Facility, Gregg Appliances is not required to comply with any financial maintenance covenant unless “excess availability” is less than the greater of (i) 10.0% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit or (ii) $20.0 million during the continuance of which event Gregg Appliances is subject to compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.
Pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility, if Gregg Appliances has “excess availability” of less than 12.5% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit, it may, in certain circumstances more specifically described in the Revolving Credit Facility, become subject to cash dominion control.
The Revolving Credit Facility places limitations on the ability of Gregg Appliances to, among other things, incur debt, create other liens on its assets, make investments, sell assets, pay dividends, undertake transactions with affiliates, enter into merger transactions, enter into unrelated businesses, open collateral locations outside of the United States, or enter into

consignment assignments or floor plan financing arrangements. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains various customary representations and warranties, financial and collateral reporting requirements and other affirmative and negative covenants.
Gregg Appliances was in compliance with the restrictions and covenants in the Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2013.
As of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, Gregg Appliances had no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2013, Gregg Appliances had $4.9 million of letters of credit outstanding which expire through December 31, 2013. As of March 31, 2013, Gregg Appliances had $4.9 million of letters of credit outstanding which expired on December 31, 2012. The total borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $220.8 million and $189.8 million, as of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, respectively. The interest rate based on the bank's prime rate as of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 was 4.25%.
Long Term Liquidity. Anticipated cash flows from operations and funds available from our Revolving Credit Facility, together with cash on hand, should provide sufficient funds to finance our operations for the foreseeable future. As a normal part of our business, we consider opportunities to refinance our existing indebtedness, based on market conditions. Although we may refinance all or part of our existing indebtedness in the future, there can be no assurances that we will do so. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may require us to seek additional debt or equity financing. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Additional debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations, additional covenants and operating restrictions. We also have an inventory financing facility. Our inventory financing facility is a $20 million unsecured credit line
that is non-interest bearing and is not collateralized with the inventory purchased. The facility includes customary covenants as
well as customary events of default.
Contractual Obligations
We entered into lease commitments totaling approximately $10.0 million over their respective lease terms during the three
months ended June 30, 2013. There have been no other significant changes in our contractual obligations since the end of fiscal 2013. See our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 20, 2013.

Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a Disclosure Committee, consisting of certain members of management, to assist in this evaluation. Our Disclosure Committee meets on a quarterly basis and more often if necessary.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2013. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II.
Other Information
ITEM 1.
Legal Proceedings
We are engaged in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business and have certain unresolved claims pending. The ultimate liability, if any, for the aggregate amounts claimed cannot be determined at this time. However, management believes, based on the examination of these matters and experiences to date, that the ultimate liability, if any, in excess of amounts already provided for in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is not likely to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
ITEM 1A.
Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 20, 2013. The risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

ITEM 5.
Other Information
On July 29, 2013, hhgregg's direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Gregg Appliances and HHG Distributing, LLC (together, the “Borrowers”) entered into an Amendment No. 1 to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders, and the lenders party thereto. The Amendment No. 1 amends the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated March 29, 2011 (the "Amended Facility"), between Gregg Appliances, Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. as syndication agent, KeyBank National Association, Regions Bank and Suntrust Bank as co-documentation agents and the lenders party thereto.
The Amendment No. 1 extends the maturity through July 29, 2018 and increases the maximum credit available from $300 million to $400 million, subject to borrowing base availability.
Under the Amended Facility, as amended by Amendment No. 1, the unused line rate is determined based on the amount of the daily average of the outstanding borrowings for the immediately preceding calendar quarter period. For a Daily Average greater than or equal to 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.25%. For a Daily Average less than 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.375%.
Pursuant to the Amended Facility, as amended by Amendment No. 1, the borrowing base equals the sum of (a) 90% of the amount of the eligible commercial accounts (b) 90% of the amount of eligible credit card receivables of Gregg Appliances and (c) 90% of the net recovery percentage multiplied by the value of such eligible inventory; consistent with the most recent approval of such eligible inventory. The Amended Facility, as amended by Amendment No. 1, requires payment to the incremental lenders of a commitment fee estimated to average 3.75% of the incremental commitment.
Amendment No. 1 requires payment to the existing and incremental lenders of a commitment fee equal to (a) 0.15%, based on commitment level, with respect to extended commitments; (b) 0.20%, based on commitment level, with respect to new or incremental commitments up to $20,000,000; and (c) 0.25%, based on commitment level, with respect to new or incremental commitments in excess of $20,000,000 (and which shall be paid based on the entire amount of the new or increased allocated commitment of each lender).
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety to reference to Amendment No. 1, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.34 and incorporated herein by reference.
