DESCRIPTION OF THE WILHELMINA BUSINESS

Overview

The Company’s primary business is fashion model management, which is headquartered in New York City. The Company’s predecessor was founded in 1967 by Wilhelmina Cooper, a renowned fashion model, and is one of the oldest and largest fashion model management companies in the world. Since its founding, it has grown to include operations located in Los Angeles, Miami, London and the Republic of Chile, as well as a growing network of licensees comprising leading modeling agencies in various local markets across the U.S. as well as in Panama, Thailand, Dubai, Vancouver and Tokyo. The Company provides traditional, full-service fashion model and talent management services, specializing in the representation and management of models, entertainers, artists, athletes and other talent to various customers and clients, including retailers, designers, advertising agencies and catalog companies. The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 1996.

Organization and Operating Divisions

The Company is comprised of operating companies and divisions focused on the fashion model and talent management business, as well as business areas complimentary to the fashion model and talent management business such as licensing, branding, contests, events and television. Our business is primarily focused around the following key areas:

•

Fashion model management,

•

Hair & makeup,

•

Talent management, and

•

Licensing & branding (including contests, consumer products, events and television)

Fashion Model Management

Wilhelmina is focused on providing fashion modeling and talent product-endorsement services to clients such as ad agencies, branded consumer goods companies, fashion designers, magazines, retailers, department stores, product catalogs and Internet sites.

The fashion model management industry can be divided into many subcategories, including advertising campaigns as well as catalog, runway, showroom and editorial work. Advertising work involves modeling for advertisements featuring consumer products such as cosmetics, clothing and other items, to be placed in magazines and newspapers, on billboards and with other types of media. Catalog work involves modeling for promotional catalogs that are produced throughout the year. Runway work involves modeling at fashion shows, which primarily take place in Paris, Milan, London and New York City. Showroom work involves on-site modeling of products at client showrooms and other events and production “fit” work whereby a model serves as the sizing model for apparel items. Editorial work involves modeling for the cover and editorial sections of magazines.

Clients pay talent for their appearance in photo shoots for magazine features, print advertising, direct mail marketing, product catalogs and Internet sites, as well as for their appearance in runway shows to present new designer collections, fit modeling, and on-location presentations and event appearances. In addition, talent may also appear in film and TV commercials.

Wilhelmina develops and diversifies its talent portfolio through a combination of ongoing local, regional or international scouting and talent-search efforts to source new talent, and cooperates with other agencies that represent talent.

Within its fashion model management business, Wilhelmina has two primary sources of revenue: commissions paid by models as a percentage of their gross earnings and a separate service charge, paid by clients in addition to the booking fees, calculated as a percentage of the models’ booking fees. Wilhelmina believes that its commission rates and service charge are comparable to those of its principal competitors.

Wilhelmina’s fashion model management operations are organized into divisions called “boards,” each of which specializes by the type of models it represents. Wilhelmina’s boards are generally described in the table below.

Board Name	Location	Target Market
Women	NYC, LA, Miami, London, Chile	High-end female fashion models
Men	NYC, LA, Miami	High-end male fashion models
Direct Men	NYC, LA, Miami	Established/commercial male fashion models
Direct Women	NYC, LA, Miami	Established/commercial female fashion models
Curve	NYC	Full-figured female fashion models
Runway	NYC	Catwalk and designer client services
Fitness	NYC	Fit or athletic models
Kids*	NYC	Child models

____________

*	Through partial ownership of Wilhelmina Kids & Creative Management LLC.

Each major board is headed by a director who is in charge of the agents assigned to such board. The agents of each board act both as bookers (includes promoting models, negotiating fees and contracting work) and as talent scouts/managers (includes providing models with career and development guidance and helping them better market themselves). Although agents individually develop professional relationships with models, models are represented by a board collectively, and not by a specific agent. Wilhelmina’s organization into boards thereby enables Wilhelmina to provide clients with services tailored to their particular needs, to allow models to benefit from agents’ specialized experience in their particular markets, and to limit Wilhelmina’s dependency on any specialty market or agent.

Most senior agents are employed pursuant to employment agreements that include noncompetition provisions such as a prohibition from working with Wilhelmina’s models and clients for a certain period of time after the end of the agent’s employment with Wilhelmina.

Wilhelmina typically signs its models to three-year exclusive contracts, which it actively enforces.

The LW1 division, based in Los Angeles, offers models the opportunity to be showcased on TV and film through its membership in the Screen Actors Guild.

Wilhelmina also owns a non-consolidated 50% interest in Wilhelmina Kids & Creative Management LLC, a New York City-based modeling agency that specializes in representing child models, from newborns to children 14 years of age.

Wilhelmina Chile SPA (“Chile”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Wilhelmina International, Inc., was organized in 2013 in order to better serve the Company’s clients in Latin America. During 2014, the Company actively served new clients in South America and Central America directly from the Chile office and out of Wilhelmina Miami.

Wilhelmina London Limited (“London”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Wilhelmina International, Inc. acquired in January 2015, establishes a footprint for the Company and the brand in Western Europe. It will also serve as a base of operations to service the Company’s European clients, and as a new talent development office for European models and artists.

Hair & Makeup

The Company has created a division to represent talent in the photography, styling and hair & makeup arenas. These artists work on projects across the globe for well-known companies in the retail, pharmaceutical and music industries. In addition, their work appears in top editorial magazines and on the runways of major fashion houses.

Wilhelmina Artist Management

Wilhelmina Artist Management, LLC (“WAM”) is a talent management company that seeks to secure endorsement and spokesperson work for various celebrities from the worlds of sports, music and entertainment. WAM has two primary sources of revenue: commissions paid by talent as a percentage of their gross earnings and royalties or a service charge paid by clients.

Licensing & Branding

Wilhelmina Licensing collects third-party licensing fees in connection with the licensing of the “Wilhelmina” name. Third-party licensees include several leading fashion model agencies in local markets across the U.S. as well as in Panama, Thailand, Dubai, Vancouver and Tokyo. A consumer products license for fragrance and cosmetics is also in effect. The film and television business consists of television syndication royalties and production series contracts. Also from time to time, the Company conducts model search contests and other events in an effort to expand the Wilhelmina brand and recruit talent.

Competition

The fashion model management business is highly competitive. New York City, Los Angeles and Miami, as well as Paris, Milan, Sao Paulo and London, are considered the most important markets for the fashion talent management industry. Most of the leading international firms are headquartered in New York City, which is considered to be the “capital” of the global fashion industry. Wilhelmina’s principal competitors include other large fashion model management businesses in the U.S., including Marilyn Model Agency, IMG Models, Elite Model Management, Ford Models, Inc., DNA Model Management, and NEXT Model Management. Wilhelmina is the only publicly-listed fashion talent management firm.

Competition also includes foreign agencies and smaller U.S. agencies in local markets that recruit local talent and cater to local market needs. Several of the larger fashion talent firms operate offices in multiple cities and countries, or alternatively have chosen to partner with local or foreign agencies to attempt to harness synergies without increasing overhead.

The Company believes that its sources of revenue (mainly generated from commissions and service charges) are comparable to those of its principal competitors. Therefore, for the Company to obtain a competitive advantage, it must develop and maintain a deep pool of talent and deliver high quality service to its clients. The Company believes that through its scouting efforts, search contests, licensing network, advertising and TV shows, it is able to recruit a deeper pool of talent relative to its competitors. These recruitment tools coupled with the broad range of fashion boards available to the Company’s talent, enables the Company to develop talent and generate a broader range of revenues relative to its principal competitors. While a broad range of talent and boards provides a certain level of stability to the business, certain talent may be more inclined to work with a boutique agency which may appear to tailor more specifically to their needs.

Also, over its 48 years of existence, Wilhelmina has created long standing client relationships and a number of business activities related to the fashion model management business that provide exposure to diverse markets and demographics. The Company has also developed a professional workforce with years of talent management experience.

Clients and Customers

As of December 31, 2014, Wilhelmina had approximately 2,000 active models. Wilhelmina’s active models include Coco Rocha, RJ King, Marlon Teixiera, Ava Smith, Alexandra Richards, Armando Cabral, Soo Joo, Cindy Bruna, Clarke Bockelman, Bastian Van Gaalen, Keilani Asmus, Rayla Guimaraes Jacunda, Elisabeth Erm, Janis Ancens, Kirsten Shiells, Nathan Owens, and Claudio Moreira.

Wilhelmina serves approximately 2,600 external clients. Wilhelmina’s customer base is highly diversified, with no one customer accounting for more than 5% of overall gross revenues. The top 100 customers of Wilhelmina together accounted for approximately 55% of overall gross revenues during 2014.

Governmental Regulations

Certain jurisdictions, in which Wilhelmina operates, such as California and Florida, require that companies maintain a Talent Agency License in order to engage in the “talent agency” business. The talent agency business is generally considered the business of procuring engagements or any employment or placement of a talent, where the talent performs in his or her artistic capacity. Where required, the Wilhelmina subsidiaries operating in these jurisdictions maintain Talent Agency Licenses issued by those jurisdictions. In addition, certain Wilhelmina subsidiaries also maintain required SAG licenses issued by the Screen Actors’ Guild.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had 96 employees, 67 of whom were located in New York City, 14 of whom were located at Wilhelmina’s Miami, Florida office, 14 of whom were located at Wilhelmina’s Los Angeles, California office and 1 of whom was located at the corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas. In addition, as of January 5, 2015, the London acquisition added 10 employees to our overall headcount.

TRADEMARKS AND LICENSING

The “Wilhelmina” brand is essential to the success and competitive position of the Company. Wilhelmina’s trademark is vital to the licensing business because licensees pay for the right to use the trademark. The Company has invested significant resources in the “Wilhelmina” brands in order to obtain the public recognition that these brands currently have. Wilhelmina relies upon domestic and international trademark laws, license agreements and nondisclosure agreements to protect the “Wilhelmina” brand name used in its business. Trademarks registered in the U.S. have a duration of ten years and are generally subject to an indefinite number of renewals for a like period on appropriate application.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On May 2, 2012, Sean Patterson, the former President of the Company’s subsidiary, Wilhelmina International, Ltd. (“Wilhelmina International”), filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against the Company, Wilhelmina International and Mark Schwarz, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, asserting claims for alleged breach of Mr. Patterson’s expired employment agreement (the “Employment Agreement”) with Wilhelmina International, defamation, and declaratory relief with respect to the alleged invalidity and unenforceability of the Employment Agreement’s non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. The Company and Wilhelmina International denied its material allegations and asserted counterclaims against Mr. Patterson for breach of the Employment Agreement, breach of fiduciary duty, and injunctive relief. On May 23, 2014, the court granted the defendants’ motion to dismiss Mr. Patterson’s defamation claim, and granted Mr. Patterson’s cross-motion for leave to file an amended defamation claim. Mr. Patterson filed an Amended Complaint on May 15, 2014, repeating the claims for alleged breach of contract and declaratory relief, and filing an amended defamation claim. The Company and Wilhelmina International filed an Answer to the Amended Complaint, denying its material allegations, on June 17, 2014, and again asserted counterclaims for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and for injunctive relief. Mr. Patterson replied to those counterclaims on June 27, 2014. The parties continue to be engaged in discovery. The Company believes Mr. Patterson’s claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself and pursue the counterclaims.

On October 24, 2013, a purported class action lawsuit brought by former Wilhelmina model Alex Shanklin and others (the “Shanklin Litigation”), naming as defendants the Company’s subsidiaries Wilhelmina International and Wilhelmina Models, Inc. (the “Wilhelmina Subsidiary Parties”), was initiated in New York State Supreme Court (New York County) by the same lead counsel who represented plaintiffs in a prior, now-dismissed action brought by Louisa Raske (the “Raske Litigation”). The claims in the Shanklin Litigation include breach of contract and unjust enrichment and are alleged to arise out of matters relating to those matters involved in the Raske Litigation, such as the handling and reporting of funds on behalf of models and the use of model images. Other parties named as defendants in the Shanklin Litigation include other model management companies, advertising firms, and certain advertisers. As previously noted, on March 3, 2014, the judge assigned to the Shanklin Litigation wrote the Office of the New York Attorney General bringing the case to its attention, generally describing the claims asserted therein against the model management defendants, and stating that the case “may involve matters in the public interest.” The judge’s letter also enclosed a copy of his decision in the Raske Litigation, which dismissed that case. The Company believes the claims asserted in the Shanklin Litigation are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself and its subsidiaries. On January 6, 2014, the Wilhelmina Subsidiary Parties moved to dismiss the Amended Complaint in the Shanklin Litigation for failure to state a cause of action upon which relief can be granted and other grounds, and other defendants also filed motions to dismiss. By Decision and Order dated August 11, 2014, the court denied the Wilhelmina Subsidiary Parties’ motion to dismiss. The parties were directed to engage in court-ordered mediation, but during that process, in October 2014, plaintiffs lost their principal attorney and new lead counsel for plaintiffs has not yet been identified. On March 10, 2015, the court granted the motion by plaintiffs’ local New York counsel for leave to withdraw, gave the plaintiffs 90 days to find substitute counsel, and stayed the action in the interim. The Company intends to vigorously defend the Wilhelmina Subsidiary Parties in the event plaintiffs move forward with substitute counsel.

In addition to the legal proceedings otherwise disclosed herein, the Company is also engaged in various legal proceedings that are routine in nature and incidental to its business. None of these routine proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, are believed, in the Company's opinion, to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations comparing the calendar years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. You should read this section in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto that are incorporated herein by reference and the other financial information included herein and the notes thereto.

OVERVIEW

The Company’s primary business is fashion model management, which is headquartered in New York City. The Company’s predecessor was founded in 1967 by Wilhelmina Cooper, a renowned fashion model, and is one of the oldest, best known and largest fashion model management companies in the world. Since its founding, it has grown to include operations located in Los Angeles, Miami, London and the Republic of Chile, as well as a growing network of licensees comprising leading modeling agencies in various local markets across the U.S., as well as in Panama, Thailand, Dubai, Vancouver and Tokyo. The Company provides traditional, full-service fashion model and talent management services, specializing in the representation and management of models, entertainers, artists, athletes and other talent to various customers and clients, including retailers, designers, advertising agencies and catalog companies.

The business of talent management firms, such as Wilhelmina, depends heavily on the state of the advertising industry, as demand for talent is driven by Internet, print and TV advertising campaigns for consumer goods and retail clients.

Wilhelmina believes it has strong brand recognition which enables it to attract and retain top agents and talent to service a broad universe of clients. In order to take advantage of these opportunities and support its continued growth, the Company will need to continue to successfully allocate resources and staffing in a way that enhances its ability to respond to these new opportunities. The Company continues to focus on cutting costs, recruiting top agents when available and scouting and developing new talent.

Although Wilhelmina has a large and diverse client base, it is not immune to global economic conditions. Wilhelmina closely monitors economic conditions, client spending and other factors and continually looks for ways to reduce costs, manage working capital and conserve cash. There can be no assurance as to the effects on Wilhelmina of future economic circumstances, client spending patterns, client credit worthiness and other developments and whether, or to what extent, Wilhelmina’s efforts to respond to them will be effective.

Trends and Opportunities

The Company expects that the combination of Wilhelmina’s main operating base in New York City, the industry’s capital, with the depth and breadth of its talent pool and client roster and its diversification across various talent management segments, together with its geographical reach should make Wilhelmina’s operations more resilient to industry changes and economic swings than those of many of the smaller firms operating in the industry. Similarly, in the segments where Wilhelmina competes with other leading full service agencies, Wilhelmina competed successfully in 2014.

With total advertising expenditures on major media (newspapers, magazines, television, cinema, outdoor and Internet) exceeding approximately $165 billion in recent years, North America is by far the world’s largest advertising market. For the fashion talent management industry, including Wilhelmina, advertising expenditures on magazines, television, Internet and outdoor are of particular relevance.

Strategy

Management’s strategy is to increase value to shareholders through the following initiatives:

•

develop Wilhelmina into a global brand;

•

expand the women’s high end fashion board;

•

expand celebrity endorsements;

•

strategic acquisitions;

•

licensing the “Wilhelmina” name to leading model management agencies;

•

licensing the “Wilhelmina” brand in connection with consumer products, cosmetics and other beauty products; and

•

promoting model search contests, and events and partnering on media projects (television, film, books, etc.).

Due to the increasing ubiquity of the Internet as a standard business tool, the Company has increasingly sought to harness the opportunities of the Internet and other digital media to improve their communications with clients and to facilitate the effective exchange of fashion model and talent information. The Company continues to make significant investments in technology (including developing in-house art and social media departments) in pursuit of gains in efficiency and better communications with customers. At the same time, the Internet presents challenges for the Company, including (i) the cannibalization of traditional print advertising business and (ii) pricing pressures with respect to photo shoots and client engagements.

In January 2015, the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of Union Models Management Ltd. in London England and renamed it Wilhelmina London Limited (“London”). London represents a strategic acquisition for the Company that establishes a footprint for the Company and the brand in Western Europe. It will also serve as a base of operations to service the Company’s European clients, and as a new talent development office for European models and artists.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013

The key financial indicators that the Company reviews to monitor the business are gross billings, revenues, model costs, operating expenses and cash flows.

The Company analyzes revenue by reviewing the mix of revenues generated by the different “boards” (each a specific division of the fashion model management operations which specializes by the type of model it represents (Women, Men, Direct, Direct 2, Runway, Curve, Lifestyle, Kids, etc.)) of the business, revenues by geographic locations and revenues from significant clients. Wilhelmina has three primary sources of revenue: revenues from principal relationships whereby the gross amount billed to the client is recorded as revenue, when the revenues are earned and collectability is reasonably assured; revenues from agent relationships whereby the commissions paid by models as a percentage of their gross earnings are recorded as revenue when earned and collectability is reasonably assured; and separate service charges, paid by clients in addition to the booking fees, which are calculated as a percentage of the models’ booking fees and are recorded as revenues when earned and collectability is reasonably assured. See Critical Accounting Policies - Revenue Recognition. Gross billings are an important business metric that ultimately drive revenues, profits and cash flows.

Because Wilhelmina provides professional services, salary and service costs represent the largest part of the Company’s operating expenses. Salary and service costs are comprised of payroll and related costs and T&E (travel, meals and entertainment) to deliver the Company’s services and to enable new business development activities.

Gross Billings

Generally, the Company’s gross billings fluctuate in response to its clients’ willingness to spend on advertising and the Company’s ability to have the desired talent available.

The Company experienced a 14.5% increase in gross billings, which reflects a 17.1% increase in core gross billings partially offset by a 33.1% decline in WAM gross billings during the year ended December 31, 2014, when compared to the gross billings across the core modeling and WAM businesses for the year ended December 31, 2013. Gross billings of the core business increased across the boards with the growth of the advertising market and increased market penetration. Gross billings of the WAM business decreased due to expiration of the contracts associated with the product licensing and related royalty agreements. Management does not expect to generate material gross billings and operating results from the WAM business in 2015.

Revenues

The increase in revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014, is attributable to the increases in gross billings of the core modeling business, partially offset by a decline in revenues from the WAM business. Revenues of the core business increased across the boards with growth of the advertising market and increased market penetration. The decline in the WAM revenues is directly associated with the expiration of an associated product licensing contract.

License Fees and Other Income

License fees and other income include the following:

•	Product licensing agreements between the Company, its clients and talent, whereby the Company participated in the sharing of royalties. During the year ended December 31, 2014, there were no royalties from these licensing agreements, compared to $180,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

•

An agreement between the Company and an unconsolidated affiliate to provide management and administrative services, as well as sharing of space. For each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, management fee and rental income from the unconsolidated affiliate amounted to approximately $110,000.

•

Franchise revenues from independently owned model agencies that use the Wilhelmina trademark name and various services provided by the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2014, franchise fees totaled approximately $286,000, compared to approximately $298,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

•	Fees derived from participants in the Company’s model search contests, events and television syndication royalties.

Gross Profit Margin

Fluctuations in gross profit margin, between periods, are predominantly due to the following:

•	The mix of revenues being derived from talent relationships, which require the reporting of revenues gross (as a principal) versus net (as an agent). Model costs consist of costs associated with relationships with models where the key indicators suggest that the Company acts as a principal.

•	An increase or decrease in mother agency fees, relative to model costs.

•	An increase or decrease in the rate of recovery of advances to models (for the cost of producing initial portfolios and other out-of-pocket costs). These costs are expensed as incurred and repayments of such costs are credited to model costs in the period received.

Gross profit margins were lower during the year ended December 31, 2014, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, as a result of the following:

•	Royalties earned in the WAM business are reported on a net basis and have ended, as previously discussed.

•	Mother agency fees measured as a percentage of core gross billings increased slightly, as a result of increased scouting efforts.

Salaries and Service Costs

Salaries and service costs consist of payroll and related costs and T&E (travel, meals and entertainment) costs required to deliver the Company’s services to its customers and talent. The following factors contributed to the increases in salaries and service costs when comparing the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2013:

•

The Company hired additional key personnel, such as talent agents and scouts, to execute the Company’s strategy to increase value to shareholders through the initiatives discussed in the “Strategy” section above. In addition, the Company has hired staff in order to facilitate the upgrade of its accounting system and enhanced reporting system.

•	During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company experienced an increase in T&E costs in connection with delivering services to its customers and models.

The amount of salaries and service costs as a percentage of revenue decreased slightly to 17.0% for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to 17.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Office and General Expenses

Office and general expenses consist of office and equipment rents, advertising and promotion, insurance expenses, administration and technology cost. These costs are less directly linked to changes in the Company’s revenues than are salaries and service costs.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, office and general expenses increased, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, due to costs associated with legal and professional fees, technology, and leases associated with equipment and property. The Company continues to invest in technology, equipment and property to improve delivery of model management services to its talent.

The amount of office and general expenses as a percentage of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2014 increased slightly to 6.0% from 5.6% for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Amortization and Depreciation

Depreciation and amortization expense is incurred with respect to certain assets, including computer hardware, software, office equipment, furniture, and other intangibles. During the year ended December 31, 2014, depreciation and amortization expense totaled $603,000 (of which $333,000 relates to amortization of intangibles acquired in connection with the acquisition of the operating companies and divisions that currently conduct the Company’s fashion model management business (the “Wilhelmina Acquisition”), compared to $1,572,000 of depreciation and amortization expense during the year ended December 31, 2013 (of which $1,432,000 relates to amortization of intangibles acquired in connection with the Wilhelmina Acquisition). Fixed asset purchases totaled approximately $771,000 and $421,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Approximately $585,000 of the fixed assets purchases during the year ended December 31, 2014 related to the cost of upgrading accounting and reporting software. The project is currently in process and is expected to be complete during the third quarter of 2015.

Corporate Overhead

Corporate overhead expenses include public company costs, director and executive officer compensation, legal, audit and professional fees, corporate office rent and travel. Corporate overhead increased for the year ended December 31, 2014, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to an increase in fees associated with listing the Company’s shares of Common Stock on NASDAQ, partially offset by a decrease in executive officer compensation and executive search fees.

Operating Margin

Operating margins increased for the year ended December 31, 2014, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, as a result of an increase in revenues from the core modeling business and the decrease in amortization expense associated with the completion of amortization on certain intangible assets, partially offset by increases in salaries and service costs, office and general expenses and corporate overhead costs.

Asset Impairment Charge

Each reporting period, the Company assesses whether events or circumstances have occurred which indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an asset impairment charge will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. No asset impairment charges were incurred during the years ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Interest Expense

The decrease in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2013, is the result of a decrease in average borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

Foreign Currency Loss

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company incurred a loss on foreign currency of $42,000. This loss is primarily associated with the conversion of funds in Chilean Pesos to US Dollars.

Equity in Operations from Wilhelmina Kids & Creative Mgmt., LLC

Wilhelmina also owns a non-consolidated 50% interest in Wilhelmina Kids & Creative Management LLC (“Kids”), a New York City-based modeling agency that specializes in representing child models, from newborns to children 14 years of age. The Company incurred a loss that is reflective of the pro rata ownership interest in Kids for the years ended December 31, 2014.

Income Taxes

Generally, the Company’s combined effective tax rate is high relative to reported net income as a result of certain amounts of amortization expense and corporate overhead not being deductible or attributable to states in which it operates. Currently, the majority of taxes being paid by the Company are state taxes, not federal taxes. The Company operates in three states which have relatively high tax rates: California, New York and Florida. The Company’s combined (federal and state) effective tax rate would be even higher if it were not for federal net operating loss carryforwards available to offset current federal taxable income. After adjusting for taxable income in 2014, the Company had federal income tax loss carryforwards of approximately $900,000, which begin expiring in 2019. A portion of the Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards were utilized to offset federal taxable income generated during the year ended December 31, 2014. Realization of the Company’s carryforwards is dependent on future taxable income.

As defined in the Internal Revenue Code, ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s cash balance increased to $5,870,000 at December 31, 2014, from $2,776,000 at December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, cash balances increased as a result of cash flows from operations of approximately $4,450,000.

Cash flow from operations were also utilized during the year ended December 31, 2014 to make payments under the Credit Agreement with Amegy Bank of $800,000, to repurchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock totaling approximately $6,000 and to purchase approximately $771,000 of fixed assets.

The Company’s primary liquidity needs are for financing working capital associated with the expenses it incurs in performing services under its client contracts. Generally, the Company incurs significant operating expenses with payment terms shorter than its average collections on billings.

Amegy Bank Credit Agreement

On October 24, 2012, the Company executed and closed a second amendment to its revolving Credit Agreement with Amegy Bank (the "Second Credit Agreement Amendment"), which amended and replaced the terms of the Credit Agreement, as previously amended. Under the terms of the Second Credit Agreement Amendment, (1) total availability under the revolving credit facility is $5,000,000, (2) the borrowing base is 75% of eligible accounts receivable (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (3) the Company’s minimum net worth covenant is $22,000,000. The maturity date of the facility is October 15, 2015. Under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note evidencing the Company's obligation to repay advances under the facility, the interest rate on borrowings is prime rate plus 1%.

On July 31, 2014, the Company executed and closed the third amendment (the “Third Credit Agreement Amendment”) to its revolving facility with Amegy Bank. The terms of the Third Credit Agreement Amendment are essentially the same as those set forth in the Second Credit Agreement Amendment with the exception of the ability to issue up to $300,000 of standby letters of credit. Outstanding letters of credit will reduce the Company’s availability under the facility.

As of March 27, 2015, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. Amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated and become immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of an event of default. All indebtedness and other obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement are secured by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, provided, however, that the collateral does not include the intellectual property of the Company or the stock or equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had $222,000 of restricted cash that served as collateral for an irrevocable standby letter of credit. During 2014, the Company issued a replacement letter of credit and recovered the restricted cash of $222,000. This replacement letter of credit is secured by available and unused borrowing capacity under the Company’s existing line of credit with Amegy Bank. The letter of credit serves as additional security under the lease extension relating to the Company’s office space in New York City that expires February 2021.

Effect of Inflation

Inflation has not been a material factor affecting the Company’s business. General operating expenses, such as salaries, employee benefits, insurance and occupancy costs, are subject to normal inflationary pressures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Wilhelmina International, Inc. and Subsidiaries:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Wilhelmina International, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wilhelmina International, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

On August 25, 2008, the Company and Wilhelmina Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Wilhelmina Acquisition”), entered into an agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with Dieter Esch (“Esch”), Lorex Investments AG, a Swiss corporation (“Lorex”), Brad Krassner (“Krassner”), Krassner Family Investments Limited Partnership, a Nevada limited partnership (“Krassner L.P.” and together with Esch, Lorex and Krassner, the “Control Sellers”), Wilhelmina International, Ltd., a New York corporation (“Wilhelmina International”), Wilhelmina – Miami, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Wilhelmina Miami”), Wilhelmina Artist Management LLC, a New York limited liability company (“WAM”), Wilhelmina Licensing LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Wilhelmina Licensing”), Wilhelmina Film & TV Productions LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Wilhelmina TV” and together with Wilhelmina International, Wilhelmina Miami, WAM and Wilhelmina Licensing, the “Wilhelmina Companies”), Sean Patterson, a former executive with the Wilhelmina Companies (“Patterson”), and the shareholders of Wilhelmina Miami (the “Miami Holders” and together with the Control Sellers and Patterson, the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, which closed February 13, 2009, the Company acquired the Wilhelmina Companies subject to the terms and conditions thereof (the “Wilhelmina Transaction”). The Acquisition Agreement provided for (i) the merger of Wilhelmina Acquisition with and into Wilhelmina International in a stock-for-stock transaction, as a result of which Wilhelmina International became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and (ii) the Company’s purchase of the outstanding equity interests of the other Wilhelmina Companies for cash.

Reverse Stock Split

On July 11, 2014, the Company effected a one for twenty reverse stock split of its outstanding Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Company has retroactively adjusted all the share information to reflect the Reverse Stock Split in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America. The following is a summary of significant policies used in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The financial statements include the consolidated accounts of Wilhelmina and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Wilhelmina also owns a non-consolidated 50% interest in Wilhelmina Kids & Creative Management LLC which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Revenue Recognition

In compliance with GAAP, when reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent, the Company assesses whether the Company, the model or the talent is the primary obligor. The Company evaluates the terms of its model, talent and client agreements as part of this assessment. In addition, the Company gives appropriate consideration to other key indicators such as latitude in establishing price, discretion in model or talent selection and credit risk the Company undertakes. The Company operates broadly as a modeling agency and in those relationships with models and talents where the key indicators suggest the Company acts as a principal, the Company records the gross amount billed to the client as revenue, when the revenues are earned and collectability is reasonably assured, and the related costs incurred to the model or talent as model or talent cost. In other model and talent relationships, where the Company believes the key indicators suggest the Company acts as an agent on behalf of the model or talent, the Company records revenue, when the revenues are earned and collectability is reasonably assured, net of pass-through model or talent cost.

The Company also recognizes management fees as revenues for providing services to other modeling agencies as well as consulting income in connection with services provided to a television production network according to the terms of the contract. The Company recognizes royalty income when earned based on terms of the contractual agreement. Revenues received in advance are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over periods pursuant to the related contract.

The Company also records fees from licensees when the revenues are earned and collectability is reasonably assured.

Advances to models for the cost of initial portfolios and other out-of-pocket costs, which are reimbursable only from collections from the Company’s customers as a result of future work, are expensed to model costs as incurred. Any repayments of such costs are credited to model costs in the period received.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Accounting estimates and assumptions are those that management considers to be the most critical to an understanding of the consolidated financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties. All of these estimates reflect management’s judgment about current economic and market conditions and their effects based on information available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. If such conditions persist longer or deteriorate further than expected, it is reasonably possible that the judgments and estimates could change, which may result in future impairments of assets among other effects.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are accounted for at fair value, do not bear interest and are short-term in nature. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability to collect on accounts receivable. Based on management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to the valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after the Company has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. The Company generally does not require collateral.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The balance sheet items that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash balances in several different financial institutions in New York, Los Angeles and Miami. Balances in accounts other than “noninterest-bearing transaction accounts” are insured up to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits of $250,000 per institution. At December 31, 2014, the Company had cash balances in excess of FDIC insurance coverage of approximately $5,620,000. Concentrations of credit risk with accounts receivable are mitigated by the Company’s large number of clients and their dispersion across different industries and geographical areas. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its clients and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectability of all accounts receivable.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization, based upon the estimated useful lives (ranging from 2 to 7 years) of the assets or terms of the leases, are computed by use of the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized based upon the shorter of the terms of the leases or asset lives. When property and equipment are retired or sold, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the related accounts and gains or losses, if any, are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If it is determined that impairment has occurred, the amount of the impairment is charged to operations.

Depreciation expense totaled $269,000 and $140,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill and buyer relationships resulting from the Wilhelmina Transaction and the revenue interest in Ascendant Capital Partners acquired in 2005. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer subject to amortization, but rather to an annual assessment of impairment by applying a fair-value based test. A significant amount of judgment is required in estimating fair value and performing goodwill impairment tests. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over useful lives ranging from 2 to 7 years.

The Company annually assesses whether the carrying value of their intangible assets exceeds its fair value and, if necessary, records an impairment loss equal to any such excess.

Advertising

The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 approximated $286,000 compared to $26,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax base and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company continually assesses the need for a tax valuation allowance based on all available information. As of December 31, 2014, and as a result of this assessment, the Company believes that its deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized, and therefore, no valuation allowance has been recorded. In addition, the Company continuously evaluates its tax contingencies.

Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements requires a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Also, consideration should be given to de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Tax positions are subject to change in the future, as a number of years may elapse before a particular matter for which we have established a reserve is audited and finally resolved. Federal tax returns for tax years 2011 through 2013 remain open for examination as of March 31, 2015.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records compensation expense for all awards granted. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model and straight-line amortization of compensation expense over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the grants. The Company utilizes stock-based awards as a form of compensation for employees and officers.

Net Income Per Common Share

At December 31, 2013, options to purchase 2,500 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.60 per share were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Common Stock during the year.

Fair Value Measurements

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC 820”), for financial assets and financial liabilities. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to all financial instruments that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels:

•	Level 1 Inputs-Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2 Inputs-Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; 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 Inputs-Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or other valuation techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Note 3. Line of Credit

On April 29, 2011, the Company closed a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) for a new $500,000 revolving credit facility with Amegy Bank National Association (“Amegy”). Borrowings under the facility are to be used for working capital and other general business purposes of the Company.

On January 12, 2012, the Company executed and closed an amendment (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) to its revolving Credit Agreement with Amegy. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement Amendment, which was effective as of January 1, 2012, (1) total availability under the revolving credit facility was increased to $1,500,000 (from $500,000), (2) the borrowing base was modified to 65% (from 80%) of eligible accounts receivable (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (3) the Company's minimum net worth covenant was increased to $21,250,000 (from $20,000,000). In addition, the maturity date of the facility was extended to December 31, 2012. The parties also executed an amendment to their pledge and security agreement ("Security Agreement Amendment") to reflect the execution of the Credit Agreement Amendment. The Company's obligation to repay advances under the amended facility is evidenced by an amended and restated promissory note.

On October 24, 2012, the Company executed and closed the second amendment (the “Second Credit Agreement Amendment”) to its revolving Credit Agreement with Amegy, which amended and replaced the terms amended by the Credit Agreement Amendment. Under the terms of the Second Credit Agreement Amendment, (1) total availability under the revolving credit facility was increased to $5,000,000 (from $1,500,000), (2) the borrowing base was modified to 75% (from 65%) of eligible accounts receivable (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (3) the Company’s minimum net worth covenant was increased to $22,000,000 (from $21,250,000). In addition, the maturity date of the facility was extended to October 15, 2015 (from December 31, 2012). The Company’s obligation to repay advances under the amended facility is evidenced by a second amended and restated promissory note (the “Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note”). Under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note, the interest rate on borrowings was reduced to the prime rate plus 1% (from prime plus 2%) and a minimum interest rate (formerly 5%) was eliminated.

On July 31, 2014, the Company executed and closed the third amendment (the “Third Credit Agreement Amendment”) to its revolving facility with Amegy. The terms of the Third Credit Agreement Amendment are essentially the same as those set forth in the Second Credit Agreement Amendment with the exception of the ability to issue up to $300,000 of standby letters of credit. Outstanding letters of credit will reduce the Company’s availability under the facility.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

Note 4. Restricted Cash

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had $222,000 of restricted cash that served as collateral for an irrevocable standby letter of credit. During 2014, the Company issued a replacement letter of credit and recovered the restricted cash of $222,000. This replacement letter of credit is secured by available and unused borrowing capacity under the Company’s existing line of credit with Amegy. The letter of credit serves as additional security under the lease extension relating to the Company’s office space in New York City that expires February 2021.

Note 5. Operating Leases

The Company is obligated under non-cancelable lease agreements for the rental of office space and various other lease agreements for the leasing of office equipment. These operating leases expire at various dates through 2021. In addition to the minimum base rent, the office space lease agreements provide that the Company shall pay its pro-rata share of real estate taxes and operating costs as defined in the lease agreement.

The Company also leases, pursuant to a services agreement (see Note 11), certain corporate office space.

Future minimum payments under the lease agreements are summarized as follows:

Years Ending December 31	Amount (in thousands)

2015	$	1,067
2016		822
2017		554
2018		568
2019		582
Thereafter		699
	$	4,292

Rent expense totaled approximately $1,662,000 and $1,377,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Note 6. Licensing Agreements and Deferred Revenue

The Company is a party to various contracts by virtue of its relationship with certain talent. The various contracts contain terms and conditions which require the revenue and the associated talent cost to be recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract period. The Company was a party to product licensing agreements with a talent it previously represented. Under the product licensing agreements, the Company earned a commission based on a certain percentage of the royalties earned by the talent or earned royalties from the licensee that was based on a certain percentage of net sales, as defined. The Company recognized revenue from product licensing agreements of approximately $0 and $180,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

As of December 31, 2014, a number of the Company’s employees were covered by employment agreements that vary in length from one to two years. As of December 31, 2014, total compensation payable under the remaining contractual term of these agreements was approximately $4,956,000. In addition, the employment agreements contain non-compete provisions ranging from six months to one year following the term of the applicable agreement. Therefore, subject to certain exceptions, as of December 31, 2014, invoking the non-compete provisions would require the Company to compensate additional amounts to the covered employees during the non-compete period in the amount of approximately $4,115,000.

During 2010, the Company received IRS notices totaling approximately $726,000 related to foreign withholding claims for tax years 2006 and 2008. As part of settlement negotiations with the IRS, the Company determined that approximately $197,000 of the foreign withholding claim for 2008 related to tax liabilities which the Company assumed as a result of the Wilhelmina Acquisition. To satisfy this liability, the Company paid the IRS, including penalties and interest of $26,000, a total of $223,000 during the year ended December 31, 2011. Since this amount was previously accrued as a liability at the Wilhelmina Acquisition date, no adjustment was required. During February 2013, the IRS division of Appeals concluded that there was no basis for abatement of the 2006 and 2008 foreign withholding claims, within the protective framework of reasonable cause, and therefore, closed the case. During March 2013, the Company paid approximately $454,000 in settlement of the foreign withholding claims for tax years 2006 and 2008. During March 2013, the Company offset approximately $454,000 of the Company’s remaining earnout obligation for losses incurred in the settlement of the foreign withholding claims for tax years 2006 and 2008. The Company is indemnified by certain of the selling parties in the Wilhelmina Acquisition for losses incurred as a result of such deficiency notice, and the selling parties have confirmed such responsibility to the Company. Such indemnification was satisfied by offset to earn-out payments.

Note 8. Share Capital

The Company has a shareholder’s rights plan (the “Rights Plan”). The Rights Plan provides for a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company's Common Stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"). The terms of the Rights and the Rights Plan are set forth in a Rights Agreement, dated as of July 10, 2006, as amended, by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., now known as The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agreement”).

The Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Rights Plan to protect shareholder value by protecting the Company’s ability to realize the benefits of its net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”). In general terms, the Rights Plan imposes a significant penalty upon any person or group that acquires 5% or more of the outstanding Common Stock without the prior approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. Shareholders that own 5% or more of the outstanding Common Stock as of the close of business on the Record Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) may acquire up to an additional 1% of the outstanding Common Stock without penalty so long as they maintain their ownership above the 5% level (such increase subject to downward adjustment by the Company’s Board of Directors if it determines that such increase will endanger the availability of the Company’s NOLs). In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors has exempted Newcastle Partners, L.P. (“Newcastle”), the Company’s largest shareholder, and may exempt any person or group that owns 5% or more if the Board of Directors determines that the person’s or group’s ownership will not endanger the availability of the Company’s NOLs. A person or group that acquires a percentage of Common Stock in excess of the applicable threshold is called an “Acquiring Person”. Any Rights held by an Acquiring Person are void and may not be exercised. The Company’s Board of Directors authorized the issuance of one Right per each share of Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date. If the Rights become exercisable, each Right would allow its holder to purchase from the Company one one-hundredth of a share of the Company’s Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 (the “Preferred Stock”), for a purchase price of $10.00. Each fractional share of Preferred Stock would give the shareholder approximately the same dividend, voting and liquidation rights as does one share of Common Stock. Prior to exercise, however, a Right does not give its holder any dividend, voting or liquidation rights.

Standstill Agreement

On April 24, 2013, the Company and Ronald L. Chez (“Chez”), a shareholder of the Company, entered into a letter agreement (the “Standstill Agreement”), pursuant to which Chez and his Affiliates (as defined in the Standstill Agreement) agreed not to, without the prior approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, (a) beneficially own in excess of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company nor (b) directly or indirectly, make any proposal or offer to acquire (other than pursuant to a confidential proposal to the Board of Directors of the Company), or agree to acquire or to become the beneficial owner of (i) any shares of Common Stock, (ii) any other securities of the Company convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into shares of Common Stock or (iii) any other voting securities of the Company, which, when added together with any such securities beneficially owned by Chez and his Affiliates immediately prior thereto, would provide Chez and his Affiliates with voting power in the aggregate in excess of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

The Company agreed to, within three (3) business days of the execution of the Standstill Agreement, promptly execute (and submit for signature by the Rights Agent) an amendment to the Rights Agreement, which amendment provides that Chez shall not be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person” under the Rights Agreement by virtue of (a) the acquisition of shares of Common Stock purchased by Chez and disclosed in the initial Schedule 13D with respect to his ownership of Company Common Stock filed by Chez on March 22, 2013 (the “Initial Chez 13D”) or (b) the acquisition of additional shares of Common Stock in one or more purchases which in the aggregate, when added together with the shares of Common Stock reflected in the Initial Chez 13D, do not exceed 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock.

The restrictions set forth in the Standstill Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of sixty (60) days following the expiration of the Rights Agreement or the earlier termination of the Rights Agreement (including pursuant to a redemption of the outstanding rights in accordance therewith) by the Company.

Amendment to Rights Agreement

On April 25, 2013, the Company entered into a Thirteenth Amendment (the “Thirteenth Amendment”) to the Rights Agreement. The Thirteenth Amendment, among other things, (i) amends the definition of Acquiring Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) to provide that Chez shall not be deemed to be an Acquiring Person solely by virtue of (a) purchases by Chez, individually and through individual retirement accounts for his benefit, of shares of Common Stock which resulted in his beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% of the Common Stock outstanding, as disclosed in the Initial Chez 13D (the “Reported Chez Purchases”) or (b) purchases by Chez, individually or through individual retirement accounts for his benefit, of a number of shares of Common Stock which in the aggregate, when added together with the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Chez as reflected in the Initial Chez 13D (i.e., 335,093 shares of Common Stock), shall not exceed 500,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Permitted Additional Chez Purchases”), (ii) amends the definition of Triggering Event (as defined in the Rights Agreement) to provide that no Triggering Event shall result solely by virtue of any Reported Chez Purchases or Permitted Additional Chez Purchases, (iii) provides that a Distribution Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) shall not be deemed to have occurred solely by virtue of any Reported Chez Purchases or Permitted Additional Chez Purchases and (iv) provides that no Reported Chez Purchases or Permitted Additional Chez Purchases shall be deemed to be events that cause the Rights to become exercisable. The Thirteenth Amendment also provides for certain other conforming and technical amendments to the terms and provisions of the Rights Agreement.

One for Twenty Reverse Stock Split

The Company's Board of Directors approved the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split and the applicable ratio of one-for-twenty on July 7, 2014. On July 11, 2014, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to the Company's restated certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) which effected the Reverse Stock Split. The Company's stockholders previously approved the granting of authority to the Company’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split at a ratio between one-for-ten and one-for-forty at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on September 26, 2013.

The Certificate of Amendment provided that, effective as of 5:00 pm (Eastern Time) on July 11, 2014, every twenty outstanding shares of Common Stock were combined automatically into one share of Common Stock. Fractional shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split were cancelled and stockholders otherwise entitled to a fractional share received a cash payment in lieu of the fractional share based on the average of the last reported sales price of the Common Stock as quoted on the OTCBB for the five business days prior to the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split (which average price was $.30). The Certificate of Amendment also proportionally reduced the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock from 250,000,000 shares to 12,500,000 shares. The rights and privileges of the holders of the Common Stock are unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split.

Trading of the Common Stock on a split-adjusted basis began at the opening of trading on July 14, 2014.

Note 9. Income Taxes

The income tax (expense) benefit is comprised of the following (in thousands):

	Year Ended December 31, 2014			Year Ended December 31, 2013
Current:
Federal	$	52		$	(37	)
State		(527	)		(294	)
Foreign		(55	)		(201	)
Total		(530	)		(532	)

State		15			8
Total		(718	)		2,170
Total	$	(1,248	)	$	1,638

The income tax (expense) benefit differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal and state income tax rates to the net income before income tax. The reasons for these differences were as follows (in thousands):

	Year Ended December 31, 2014			Year Ended December 31, 2013
Computed income tax expense at statutory rate	$	(828	)	$	(614	)
Increase in taxes resulting from:

State income taxes, net of federal benefit		(233	)		(191	)
Valuation allowance		-			2,513
Total income tax (expense) benefit	$	(1,248	)	$	1,638

The tax effect of significant temporary differences, which comprise the deferred tax asset and liability, is as follows (in thousands):

	2014			2013
Deferred tax asset:
Net operating loss carryforward	$	307		$	1,057
AMT credits		352			387
Accrued expenses		1,024			739

Net deferred income tax asset		2,304			2,684
Deferred tax liability:
Property and equipment		(280	)		(44	)
Intangible assets-brand name		(1,798	)		(1,800	)
Goodwill		(547	)		(452	)
Other Intangible assets		(25	)		(16	)
Net deferred income tax liability		(2,650	)		(2,312	)

Net deferred tax asset/(liability)	$	(346	)	$	372

Generally, the Company’s combined effective tax rate is high relative to reported net income as a result of certain amounts of amortization expense and corporate overhead not being deductible or attributable to states in which it operates. Currently, the majority of taxes being paid by the Company are state taxes, not federal taxes. The Company operates in three states which have relatively high tax rates: California, New York and Florida. The Company’s combined (federal and state) effective tax rate would be even higher if it were not for federal net operating loss carryforwards available to offset current federal taxable income. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had federal income tax loss carryforwards of approximately $900,000, which begin expiring in 2019. A portion of the Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards were utilized to offset federal taxable income generated during the year ended December 31, 2014. Realization of the Company’s carryforwards is dependent on future taxable income. As defined in the Internal Revenue Code, ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income.

As of December 31, 2013, management determined that the deferred tax asset ("DTA") valuation allowance of approximately $2,500,000 should be reversed. The decision to reverse the DTA valuation allowance is based on the sustained profitability by the Company in recent years and management’s expectation of sufficient profitability in subsequent years to fully utilize the net operating losses. As a result of the DTA allowance reversal, net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by approximately $2,170,000.

Note 10. Treasury Stock

During August 2013, the Board of Directors renewed and extended the Company’s share repurchase authority to enable it to repurchase up to an additional 500,000 shares of Common Stock. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company repurchased 113,156 shares of Common Stock at an average price of approximately $3.64 per share, for a total of approximately $410,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company repurchased 1,113 shares of Common Stock at an average price of approximately $5.34 per share, for a total of approximately $6,000.

In total, the Company has repurchased 602,818 shares of Common Stock at an average price of approximately $2.73 per share, for a total of approximately $1,643,000 under the foregoing stock repurchase program during 2013 and 2014.

Note 11. Related Parties

As of December 31, 2014, Mark Schwarz, the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Portfolio Manager of Newcastle Capital Management, L.P. (“NCM”), and John Murray, then Chief Financial Officer of NCM, held the following executive officer and board of director positions with the Company: Chairman of the Board and Executive Chairman, and Chief Financial Officer, respectively. NCM is the General Partner of Newcastle, which owns 2,430,726 shares of Common Stock. Clinton Coleman (Managing Director at NCM) and James Dvorak (Managing Director at NCM) also serve as directors of the Company. Mr. Murray is no longer Chief Financial Officer of the Company or NCM.

The Company’s corporate headquarters are located at 200 Crescent Court, Suite 1400, Dallas, Texas 75201, which are also the offices of NCM.

In connection with this grant of options, the Company recognized compensation expense of approximately $189,000 and $159,000 during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company may make discretionary contributions. No discretionary contributions were made during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on their evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, with the participation of the Company’s management, have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2014, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Given these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only reasonable assurance that the Company’s controls will succeed in achieving their stated goals under all potential future conditions. The Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2014.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2014.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As of the end of the period covered by this report, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
