Depreciation expense was approximately $157,000 and $312,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $174,000 and $348,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based awards at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the weighted average fair value of options and employee stock purchase plan rights. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line method over the requisite service period of the award.

 

There were 366,000 stock option awards, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.02, granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014, and the Company estimated the fair value of these awards using the following weighted average assumptions: expected life of 3.7 years, expected volatility of 50%, dividend yield of 0% and risk-free interest rate of 1.04%.

 

The Company estimated the fair value of stock-based rights granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014, under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan using the following weighted average assumptions: expected life of 1.0 years, expected volatility of 50%, dividend yield of 0% and risk-free interest rate of 0.13%.

 

There were 25,000 restricted stock units granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014.  The shares were granted at $3.03 per share, based on the stock price on the date of the grant and vest over three years. Stock-based compensation expense for the restricted stock units during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $5,000, which is included in stock-based compensation expense.

 

In May 2014, equity grants were made by the Company to the Board of Directors, pursuant to the 2013 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan, as amended, in the form of fully vested shares of common stock. The total number of shares granted to the Board of Directors was 29,701. The shares were issued at $3.03 per share, based on the stock price on the date of grant, for a total value of $90,000, which is included in stock-based compensation expense.

 

Total stock-based compensation expense recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $181,000 and $217,000, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $139,000 and $216,000, respectively.

 

Total options exercised in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were for approximately 15,000 shares and 69,000 shares, for which the Company received proceeds of $29,000 and $100,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, there were approximately 7,000 and 13,000 stock options exercised, for which the Company received proceeds of $0 and $13,000, respectively. Stock option exercises in the three months ended June 30, 2013 were done on a cashless basis.

Net Income per Share. Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding and excludes any potential dilutive effects of stock options. Diluted net income per share gives effect to all diluted potential common shares outstanding during the period.

 

Options to purchase approximately 579,000 and 519,000 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $4.28 and $4.32, respectively, were outstanding at June 30, 2014 and were not included in the computation of common stock equivalents for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 because their exercise prices were higher than the average fair market value of the common shares during the reporting period. Options to purchase approximately 1,155,000 and 1,239,000 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $3.19 and $3.33, respectively, were outstanding at June 30, 2013 and were not included in the computation of common stock equivalents for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 because their exercise prices were higher than the average fair market value of the common shares during the reporting period.

 

Weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

2.              Selling Arrangement.  In February 2011, the Company paid News America Marketing In-Store, LLC (“News America”) $4,000,000 in exchange for a 10-year arrangement to sell signs with price into News America’s network of retailers as News America’s exclusive agent. The $4,000,000 is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the 10-year term of the arrangement. Amortization expense, which was $100,000 and $200,000 in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is expected to be $400,000 per year over the next five years, is recorded within cost of services in the Company’s statements of operations. The net carrying amount of the selling arrangement is recorded within other assets on the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

 

3.              Retail Access and Distribution Agreement.  On February 21, 2014, the Company and Valassis Sales and Marketing Services, Inc. (“Valassis”) signed the Retail Access and Distribution Agreement (the “New Valassis Agreement”) that replaced all prior agreements. As a result of this new agreement, Valassis is no longer a reseller of the Company’s POPSign and the Company regained access to all consumer packaged goods manufacturers for the sale of POPSigns. On March 24, 2014, the Company received notice of termination from Valassis of the New Valassis Agreement. The termination of all material portions of this agreement will be effective on August 11, 2014. Additionally, as a result of the termination of this agreement, the amount owed to Valassis by the Company was reduced from $500,000 to $250,000, which is being amortized over the original term of the New Valassis Agreement, which is approximately four years.

 

4.              Income Taxes.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded income tax expense of $48,000 and $106,000, or 40.7%  and 36.4% of income before taxes, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded income tax expense of $12,000 and $575,000, or 6.8% and 49.6% of income before taxes, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2014 is primarily the result of the tax benefit of disqualifying dispositions of stock options, which decreased the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 by 6.3%. The income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is comprised of federal and state taxes. The primary differences between the Company’s June 30, 2014 and 2013 effective tax

rates and the statutory federal rate are expenses related to stock-based compensation and nondeductible meals and entertainment.

 

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has unrecognized tax benefits totaling $458,000, including interest, which relates to state nexus issues. The amount of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, that would affect the effective income tax rates of future periods is $458,000. Due to the current statute of limitations regarding the unrecognized tax benefits, the unrecognized tax benefits and associated interest is not expected to change significantly in 2014.

 

5.              Concentrations.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014, two customers accounted for 33% and 11% of the Company’s total net sales. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, two customers accounted for 26% and 11% of the Company’s total net sales. At June 30, 2014, one customer accounted for 44% of the Company’s total accounts receivable. At December 31, 2013, two customers accounted for 47% and 14% of the Company’s total accounts receivable.

 

Although there are a number of customers that the Company sells to, the loss of a major customer could adversely affect operating results. Additionally, the loss of a major retailer from the Company’s retail network could adversely affect operating results.

 

6.              Shareholders’ Equity. On December 3, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $5,000,000 of the Company’s common stock on or before December 3, 2015. The plan allows the repurchases to be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company repurchased approximately 147,000 shares at a total cost of $455,000.

 

7.              Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance creating Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Section 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The new section will replace Section 605, “Revenue Recognition” and creates modifications to various other revenue accounting standards for specialized transactions and industries. The section is intended to conform revenue accounting principles with a concurrently issued International Financial Reporting Standards with previously differing treatment between United States practice and those of much of the rest of the world, as well as, to enhance disclosures related to disaggregated revenue information. The updated guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company will adopt the new provisions of this accounting standard at the beginning of fiscal year 2017, given that early adoption is not an option. The Company will further study the implications of this statement in order to evaluate the expected impact on the financial statements.

 

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated due to various factors discussed under “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the “Risk Factors” described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, our Current Reports on Form 8-K and our other SEC filings.

Company Overview

 

Insignia Systems, Inc. (referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as “Insignia,” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company”) markets in-store advertising products, programs and services to consumer packaged goods manufacturers (customers) and retailers. The Company was incorporated in 1990. Since 1998, the Company has been focusing on providing in-store advertising services through the Insignia Point-Of-Purchase Services (POPS) in-store advertising program. Insignia POPS® includes the Insignia POPSign® program.

 

Insignia’s POPSign is a national, account-specific, in-store, shelf-edge advertising program that we believe delivers significant sales increases. Funded by consumer packaged goods manufacturers, the program allows manufacturers to deliver vital product information to consumers at the point-of-purchase. The brand information is combined with each retailer’s store-specific prices and is displayed on the retailer’s unique sign format. We believe that combining manufacturer and retailer information provides consumers the information they want and need to make purchasing decisions, while building store and brand equity.

 

For retailers, Insignia’s POPSign program is a source of incremental revenue and is an in-store advertising program that delivers a complete “call to action” on a product-specific and store-specific basis. For consumer packaged goods manufacturers, Insignia’s POPSign program provides access to what we believe is the optimum retail advertising site for their products — the retail shelf-edge. In addition, we believe manufacturers benefit from significant sales increases, short lead times, micro-marketing capabilities, such as store-specific and multiple language options, and a wide variety of program features and enhancements that provide unique advertising advantages.

The increase was primarily due to an increase of 3% in average price per sign, which was a result of program and customer mix, partially offset by a 2% decrease in the number of signs placed, which we believe was due to the timing and composition of our programs. Services revenues from our POPSign programs for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 7.2% to $11,798,000 compared to $12,715,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company has financed its operations with proceeds from public and private stock sales, sales of its services and products and legal settlement proceeds. At June 30, 2014, working capital was $22,162,000 compared to $22,203,000 at December 31, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash and cash equivalents decreased $2,277,000 from $21,763,000 at December 31, 2013, to $19,486,000 at June 30, 2014.

 

Operating Activities:  Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $1,309,000. Net income of $185,000, plus non-cash adjustments of $742,000 and less changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2,236,000 resulted in the $1,309,000 of cash used in operating activities. The largest component of the change in operating assets and liabilities was accounts receivable, which increased as a result of the timing of collections on these accounts. The non-cash adjustments consisted of depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, and gain of property and equipment. In the normal course of business, our accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and deferred revenue will fluctuate depending on the level of revenues and related business activity, as well as billing arrangements with customers and payment terms with retailers.

 

Investing Activities:  Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $691,000. This was primarily related to the acquisition of selling rights under the New Valassis Agreement, acquisition of other business arrangements, purchases of property and equipment, and proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. The Company expects a similar level of capital expenditures in the future periods in 2014.

 

Financing Activities:  Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $277,000, which related to proceeds received from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan and stock option exercises, offset by the repurchase of common stock under the December 3, 2013 share repurchase plan.

 

The Company believes that based upon current business conditions, its existing cash balance and future cash generated from operations will be sufficient for its cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

However, there can be no assurances that this will occur or that the Company will be able to secure financing from public or private stock sales or from other financing agreements if needed.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 5, 2014. We believe our most critical accounting policies and estimates, which are described in more detail in such Note to the annual financial statements, include the following:

 

·                  revenue recognition;

·                  allowance for doubtful accounts;

·                  impairment of long-lived assets;

·                  income taxes; and

·                  stock-based compensation.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in the Company’s other SEC filings, in press releases and in oral statements to shareholders and securities analysts that are not statements of historical or current facts, are “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results or performance of the Company to be materially different from the results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements are often identified by the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “seeks,” “will,” “estimate,” “may,” “would,” “could,” “trend,” and similar expressions identifying forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements expressing the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of our management team regarding, for instance: (i) our belief that our cash balance and cash generated by operations will provide adequate liquidity and capital resources for at least the next twelve months; (ii) that we are currently focused on maximizing opportunities available to us as a result of the termination of the New Valassis Agreement to minimize whatever financial impact may result from it, and potentially have a positive impact on the Company; (iii) that we expect fluctuations in accounts receivable and payable, accrued liabilities, and deferred revenue; and (iv) plans to repurchase Company stock. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the statement was made. These forward-looking statements are based on current information, which we have assessed and which by its nature is dynamic and subject to rapid and even abrupt changes.

 

The factors that could cause our estimates and assumptions as to future performance, and our actual results, to differ materially include the following: (i) the risk that management may be unable to fully or successfully implement its business plan to achieve and maintain increased sales and resultant profitability in the future; (ii) the risk that the Company will not be able to develop and implement new product offerings, including mobile, digital or other new offerings, in a successful manner; (iii) prevailing market conditions, including pricing and other competitive pressures, in the in-store advertising industry and, intense competition for agreements with retailers and consumer packaged goods manufacturers; (iv) potentially incorrect assumptions by management with respect to the financial effect of current strategic decisions, the effect of current sales trends on fiscal year 2014 results and the benefit of our relationship with News America; (v) termination of all or a major portion of, or a significant change in terms and conditions of, a material agreement with a retailer, consumer packaged goods manufacturer, or News America; and (vi) other economic, business, market, financial, competitive and/or regulatory factors affecting the Company’s business generally. Our risks and uncertainties also include, but are not limited to, the risks presented in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, any additional risks presented in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q

and our Current Reports on Form 8-K. We undertake no obligation (and expressly disclaim any such obligation) to update forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to update reasons why actual results would differ from those anticipated in any such forward-looking statements, other than as required by law.

Not applicable.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15.  Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
