INTERSECTIONS INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1.    Organization and Business
We provide innovative, information based solutions that help consumers manage risks and make better informed life decisions. Under our Identity Guard® brand and other brands that comprise our Personal Information Services segment, we help consumers monitor, manage and protect against the risks associated with their identities and personal information. We offer identity theft and privacy protection as well as credit monitoring services for consumers to understand, monitor, manage and protect their personal information and privacy. Under our Identity Guard® and recently launched Identity Guard® with Watson products, we help protect consumers against the risks associated with the inappropriate exposure of their personal information that can result in fraudulent use or reputation damage. Identity Guard® is offered to consumers through direct marketing or through organizations as an embedded product for employees or consumers. In late 2016, we expanded our suite of Identity Guard® products and launched Identity Guard® with Watson. Identity Guard® with Watson offers robust early detection of potential risks and provides personalized threat alerts with actionable steps to help keep our customers’ information private from the earliest stage possible. We believe that our suite of products and services offer consumers the most proactive and comprehensive identity theft monitoring service available on the market today.
We have ongoing operations in one other segment, Insurance and Other Consumer Services, and we divested two other segments, Pet Health Monitoring and Bail Bonds Industry Solutions. As part of our strategy to have a singular focus on our Personal Information Services segment, we recently sold: 1) the business comprising our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment in January 2017; 2) our Habits at Work business, the results of which are recorded in our Personal Information Services segment, in June 2017; and 3) the business comprising our Pet Health Monitoring segment in July 2017. Corporate headquarter office transactions including, but not limited to, payroll, share based compensation and other expenses related to our Chairman and non-employee Board of Directors are reported in our Corporate business unit.
 Our Insurance and Other Consumer Services segment includes insurance and membership products for consumers, delivered on a subscription basis. We are not planning to develop new business in this segment and are experiencing normal subscriber attrition due to ceased marketing and retention efforts. Some of our legacy subscriber portfolios have been cancelled, and our continued servicing of other subscribers may be cancelled as a result of actions taken by one or more financial institutions.
Our Pet Health Monitoring segment included the health and wellness monitoring products and services for veterinarians and pet owners through our former subsidiary, i4c Innovations, which does business as Voyce. Voyce generated substantial losses from formation to 2016 and, after concentrated efforts, was unable to generate an acceptable level of revenue. Effective July 31, 2017, we sold Voyce to a newly-formed entity of which Michael R. Stanfield, our Chairman and Founder, will be a minority investor. The results of this segment will be reported as a discontinued operation in accordance with U.S. GAAP beginning in the three months ending September 30, 2017. For additional information, please see Note 21.
Prior to January 31, 2017, our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment included the automated service solutions for the bail bonds industry provided by Captira Analytical ("Captira"). Effective January 31, 2017, we divested our ownership in Captira. This segment’s operating results have not had a major effect on our condensed consolidated financial results and are not classified as a discontinued operation. For additional information, please see Note 4.
2.    Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in management’s opinion reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. They include the accounts of the Company and our subsidiaries.
In conjunction with our singular refocus on our identity and privacy protection services, we changed our policy of allocating general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments, which resulted in a change in our measurement of segment profit and loss. Beginning in 2017, we directly charge our Personal Information Services segment for the majority of general and administrative expenses including executive, legal, human resources, finance and internal audit expenses. We have elected not to recast our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. For information on the effects of the change in measurement, please see "Item 2. — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

6



Our decision to consolidate an entity is based on our assessment that we have a controlling financial interest in such entity. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information or notes necessary for a complete presentation and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Restricted Cash
We classify cash as restricted when the cash is unavailable for withdrawal or usage for general operations. Our restricted cash represents cash collateral to one commercial bank for corporate credit cards. Restricted cash is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue on 1) identity theft protection services, 2) insurance services and 3) other monthly membership products and transaction services.
Our products and services are offered to consumers principally on a monthly subscription basis. Subscription fees billed by our clients are generally billed directly to the subscriber’s credit card, mortgage bill or demand deposit accounts. Subscription fees billed by us are generally billed directly to the subscriber’s credit card except for arrangements under which subscription fees are paid to us by our clients on behalf of the subscriber. The prices to subscribers of various configurations of our products and services range generally from $4.99 to $25.00 per month. As a means of allowing customers to become familiar with our services, our subscriptions periodically may be offered with trial, delayed billing or guaranteed refund periods. No revenues are recognized until applicable trial periods are completed.
Identity Theft Protection Services
We recognize revenue from our services when: a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists as we maintain signed contracts with all of our clients and paper and electronic confirmations with individual purchasers, b) delivery has occurred, c) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed as sales are generally based on contract or list prices and payments from organizations are collected within 30 days with no significant write-offs, and d) collectability is reasonably assured as individual customers pay by credit card which has limited our risk of non-collection. Revenue for monthly subscriptions is recognized in the month the subscription fee is earned. We also generate revenue through a collaborative arrangement, which involves joint marketing and servicing activities. We recognize our share of revenues and expenses from this arrangement.
Revenue for annual subscription fees must be deferred if the subscriber has the right to cancel the service and the service is earned over the year. Annual subscriptions include subscribers with full refund provisions at any time during the subscription period and pro-rata refund provisions. Revenue related to annual subscriptions with full refund provisions is recognized on the expiration of these refund provisions. Revenue related to annual subscribers with pro-rata provisions is recognized based on a pro-rata share of revenue earned. An allowance for discretionary subscription refunds is established based on our historical experience. For subscriptions with refund provisions whereby only the prorated subscription fee is refunded upon cancellation by the subscriber, deferred subscription fees are recorded when billed and amortized as subscription fee revenue on a straight-line basis over the subscription period, generally one year.
We record revenue on a gross basis in the amount that we bill the subscriber when our arrangements provide for us to serve as the primary obligor in the transaction, we have latitude in establishing price and we bear the credit risk for the amount billed to the subscriber. We also provide services for which certain clients are the primary obligors directly to their customers. We record revenue in the amount that we bill certain clients, and not the amount billed to their customers, when our client is the primary obligor, establishes the price to the customer and bears the credit risk. Revenue from these arrangements is recognized on a monthly basis when earned, which is at the time we provide the service.
Insurance Services
We recognize revenue from our services when: a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists as we maintain paper and electronic confirmations with individual purchasers, b) delivery has occurred, c) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed as the price of the product is agreed to by the customer as a condition of the sales transaction which established the sales arrangement, and d) collectability is reasonably assured as evidenced by our collection of revenue through the monthly mortgage payments of our

7



customers or through checking account debits to our customers’ accounts. Revenues from insurance contracts are recognized when earned.
For insurance products, we record revenue on a net basis as we perform as an agent or broker for the insurance products without assuming the risks of ownership of the insurance products.
We participate in agency relationships with insurance carriers that underwrite insurance products offered by us. Accordingly, insurance premiums collected from customers and remitted to insurance carriers are excluded from our revenues and operating expenses. Insurance premiums collected but not remitted to insurance carriers as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 totaled $371 thousand and $360 thousand, respectively, and are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other Membership Products and Transaction Services
For other membership products, we record revenue on a gross basis as we serve as the primary obligor in the transactions, have latitude in establishing price and bear credit risk for the amount billed to the subscriber.
Goodwill, Identifiable Intangibles and Other Long-Lived Assets
We record, as goodwill, the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired in purchase transactions. We review our goodwill for impairment annually, as of October 31, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. Goodwill is reflected as an asset in our Personal Information Services and Insurance and Other Consumer Services segments’ balance sheets, resulting from our acquisitions of Health at Work Wellness Actuaries LLC ("Habits at Work") and White Sky, Inc. ("White Sky") in 2015 as well as our prior acquisition of IISI Insurance Services Inc. ("IISI"), formerly known as Intersections Insurance Services Inc., in 2006.
On January 1, 2017, we prospectively adopted ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other." In evaluating whether indicators of impairment exist, an initial assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the goodwill impairment test can be utilized (commonly referred to as the step zero approach). For reporting units in which the qualitative assessment concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value is more than its carrying value, the guidance eliminates the requirement to perform further goodwill impairment testing. For those reporting units where a significant change or event occurs, and where potential impairment indicators exist, we perform the quantitative assessment to test goodwill for impairment. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others (a) a significant decline in our expected future cash flows; (b) a sustained, significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization; (c) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; (d) unanticipated competition; (e) the testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and (f) slower growth rates. Any adverse change in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of these assets and could have a material impact in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The quantitative assessment is a comparison of each reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. We estimate fair value using the best information available, using a combined income approach (discounted cash flow) and market based approach. The income approach measures the value of the reporting units by the present values of its economic benefits. These benefits can include revenue and cost savings. The market based approach measures the value of an entity through an analysis of recent sales or offerings of comparable companies and using revenue and other multiples of comparable companies as a reasonable basis to estimate our implied multiples. Value indications are developed by discounting expected cash flows to their present value at a rate of return that incorporates the risk-free rate for use of funds, trends within the industry, and risks associated with particular investments of similar type and quality as of the valuation date. In addition, we consider the uncertainty of realizing the projected cash flows in the analysis.
The estimated fair values of our reporting units are dependent on several significant assumptions, including our earnings projections, and cost of capital (discount rate). The projections use management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including business plans, growth rates in sales, costs, and estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, estimates of future capital expenditures, changes in future working capital requirements and overhead cost allocation, based on each reporting unit’s relative benefit received from the functions that reside in our Corporate business unit. We perform a detailed analysis of our Corporate overhead costs for purposes of establishing the overhead allocation baseline for the projection period. Overhead allocation methods include, but are not limited to, the percentage of the payroll within each reporting unit, allocation of existing support function costs based on estimated usage by the reporting units, and vendor specific costs incurred by Corporate that can be reasonably attributed to a particular reporting unit. These allocations are adjusted over the projected period in our discounted cash flow analysis based on the forecasted changing relative needs of the reporting units. Throughout the forecast period, the majority of Corporate’s total overhead expenses are allocated to our Personal Information Services reporting unit. We believe this overhead allocation method fairly allocates costs to each reporting unit, and we will continue to review, and possibly refine, these allocation methods as our businesses grow and mature. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying each to the analysis of the recoverability of goodwill.

8



We estimate fair value giving consideration to both the income and market approaches. Consideration is given to the line of business and operating performance of the entities being valued relative to those of actual transactions, potentially subject to corresponding economic, environmental, and political factors considered to be reasonable investment alternatives.
If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, then a goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying value of the reporting unit (including goodwill) exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
As of June 30, 2017, goodwill of $347 thousand resided in our Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting unit and goodwill of $9.4 million resided in our Personal Information Services reporting unit. There is no goodwill remaining in our other reporting units. For additional information, please see Note 11.
We review long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, property and equipment and other long-term assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Significant judgments in this area involve determining whether a triggering event has occurred and determining the future cash flows for assets involved. In conducting our analysis, we would compare the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the long-lived assets to the related net book values. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the net book value, the long-lived assets are considered not to be impaired. If the net book value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is measured and recognized. An impairment charge is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived assets. Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows associated with these assets.
Intangible assets subject to amortization may include customer, marketing and technology related intangibles, as well as trademarks. Such intangible assets, excluding customer related intangibles, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which are generally two to ten years. Customer related intangible assets are amortized on either a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending upon the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the related debt agreements. The effective interest rate applied to the amortization is reviewed periodically and may change if actual principal repayments of the term loan differ from estimates. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, short-term and long-term debt are presented net of the unamortized debt issuance costs in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Classification of Debt
On April 20, 2017, we refinanced our existing credit agreement dated as of March 21, 2016, as amended from time to time ("Prior Credit Agreement"), with a new $20.0 million term loan facility (as amended to date, the "New Credit Agreement"). Pursuant to the New Credit Agreement, as amended, we are required to make certain prepayments on our term loans in addition to scheduled quarterly repayments, including but not limited to asset dispositions, extraordinary receipts, excess cash flows (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) and certain equity issuances. Scheduled quarterly repayments and estimated prepayments that we expect to remit in the next twelve months, if any, are classified as the current portion of long-term debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount to be amortized in the next twelve months based on the current effective interest rate applied.
Share Based Compensation
We currently issue equity and equity-based awards under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Individual awards under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan may take the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units.
The Compensation Committee administers the Plan, and the grants are approved by either the Compensation Committee or by appropriate members of Management in accordance with authority delegated by the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock units in the Plan that have expired, terminated, or been canceled or forfeited are available for issuance or use in connection with future awards.
We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value all options and the straight-line method to amortize this fair value as compensation cost over the requisite service period. The fair value of each option granted has been estimated as of the date of grant with the following weighted-average assumptions for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
Expected Dividend Yield. Under the Prior Credit Agreement, we were prohibited from declaring and paying dividends and therefore, the dividend yield was zero for 2017 and 2016.
Expected Volatility. The expected volatility of options granted was estimated based upon our historical share price volatility based on the expected term of the underlying grants, or approximately 49% and 45% for 2017 and 2016, respectively.

9



Risk-free Interest Rate. The yield on actively traded non-inflation indexed U.S. Treasury notes was used to extrapolate an average risk-free interest rate based on the expected term of the underlying grants, or approximately 1.8% and 1.1% for 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Expected Term. The expected term of options granted was determined by considering employees’ historical exercise patterns, or approximately 5.0 years and 4.8 years for 2017 and 2016, respectively. We will continue to review our estimate in the future and adjust it, if necessary, due to changes in our historical exercises.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we assess the probability that the performance conditions of any performance-based restricted stock units ("PBRSUs") will be achieved and record share based compensation expense based on the probable outcome of that performance condition. Vesting of PBRSUs is dependent upon continued employment and achievement of defined performance goals for the year, which is based upon Adjusted EBITDA as defined and determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. We recognize the share based compensation expense ratably over the implied service period. PBRSUs will vest no later than March 15 of the year after they are granted. We may make changes to our assessment of probability and therefore, adjust share based compensation expense accordingly throughout the vesting period. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we did not grant PBRSUs.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the applicable provisions of U.S. GAAP, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including projected future taxable income and future reversal of existing deferred tax assets and liabilities, sufficient sources of taxable income in available carryback periods, tax-planning strategies, and historical results of recent operations. The assumptions about future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider three trailing years of cumulative operating income (loss). Valuation allowances are provided, if, based upon the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Changes in tax laws and rates may affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities and our effective tax rate in the future.
Accounting for income taxes in interim periods provides that at the end of each interim period we are required to make our best estimate of the consolidated effective tax rate expected to be applicable for our full calendar year. The rate so determined shall be used in providing for income taxes on a consolidated current year-to-date basis. Further, the rate is reviewed, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during the year to our best estimate of our annual effective tax rate.
In addition to the amount of tax resulting from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to income from operations before income taxes, we may include certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated overall tax amount.
We believe that our tax positions comply with applicable tax law. As a matter of course, we may be audited by various taxing authorities and these audits may result in proposed assessments where the ultimate resolution may result in us owing additional taxes. U.S. GAAP addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. We may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. U.S. GAAP provides guidance on how an enterprise should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits.
Our income tax expense and liability and/or receivable, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for uncertain tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated current and future taxes to be paid or received. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense.
Contingent Liabilities
We may become involved in litigation or other financial claims as a result of our normal business operations. We periodically analyze currently available information and make a determination of the probability of loss and provide a range of possible loss when we believe that sufficient and appropriate information is available. We accrue a liability for those contingencies where the incurrence of a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is probable and a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated but no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount in the range, then the minimum of the range is accrued. We do not accrue a liability when the likelihood that the liability has been incurred is believed to be probable but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or when the likelihood that a liability has been incurred is believed to be only reasonably possible or remote. For contingencies where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the impact could potentially be material, we disclose the nature of the contingency and, where feasible, an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss.

Description
 
Date of Adoption
 
Application
 
Effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements (or Other Significant Matters)
ASU 2017-04,
Intangibles—
Goodwill and Other
(Topic 350)
 
The primary amendments in this update simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments of this update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value.
 
January 1, 2017
 
Prospective
 
We early adopted this update to reduce the cost and complexity of our annual and interim goodwill impairment analyses. There was no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(Topic 606)
 
This update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, by creating a new Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance in this update affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the trade of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, various updates have been issued during 2015 and 2016 to clarify the guidance in Topic 606.
 
January 1, 2018
 
1) Retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or
2) retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying these updates recognized at the date of initial application.
 
We are currently in the planning stage and have not yet begun implementation of the new standard. We have not yet determined the potential impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or the method by which we will adopt the standard.
ASU 2016-02,
Leases
(Topic 842)
 
The primary amendments in this update require the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet, as well as certain qualitative disclosures regarding leasing arrangements.
 
January 1, 2019
 
Modified retrospective
 
We are currently in the planning stage and have not yet begun implementation of the new standard. We have not yet determined the potential impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-15,
Statement of Cash Flows
(Topic 230)
 
This update clarifies the guidance regarding the classification of operating, investing, and financing activities for certain types of cash receipts and payments.
 
January 1, 2018
 
Retrospective
 
Upon adoption, approximately $400 thousand of our loss on extinguishment of debt that occurred in 2017 will be retrospectively reclassified from operating to financing cash flows. We are currently unaware of any other material impacts of adoption on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-17,
Consolidation
(Topic 810)
 
This update amends the consolidation guidance on how a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a variable interest entity (VIE) should treat indirect interests in the entity held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the reporting entity that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE and, therefore, consolidates the VIE.
 
January 1, 2017
 
Retrospective
 
There was no material impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption; however, the update may impact our accounting for the disposition of Voyce, as described in Note 21.
ASU 2017-09,
Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
 
This update clarifies the guidance regarding changes in the terms or conditions of a share based payment award. Under the amendments of this update, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless certain criteria remain the same immediately before and after the modification.
 
January 1, 2018
 
Prospective
 
We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption, if any, on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
4.    Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale
In March 2017, we executed an agreement to dispose of our Habits at Work business, the results of which are recorded in our Personal Information Services segment. Habits at Work met all the criteria under U.S. GAAP to classify its assets and liabilities as held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2017. Effective June 1, 2017, we completed the sale of Habits at Work for a nominal amount, which resulted in a gain on sale of $24 thousand. The disposal does not represent a strategic

11



shift that will have a major effect on operations and financial results, and therefore, it is not expected to qualify as a discontinued operation.
In late 2016, our Board of Directors approved a plan to sell Captira, which comprises our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment. Captira met all the criteria under U.S. GAAP to classify its assets and liabilities as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016. Effective January 31, 2017, we completed the sale of Captira for a nominal amount, which marks the conclusion of our operations in the Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment. The disposal does not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on operations and financial results, and therefore, it is does not qualify as a discontinued operation. For information on the operating results of the Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment, please see "Item 2. — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
The major classes of assets and liabilities held for sale related to Habits at Work and Captira in the condensed consolidated balance sheets consisted of the following:

5.    Loss Per Common Share
Basic and diluted loss per common share is determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of U.S. GAAP. Basic loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per common share is equivalent to basic loss per common share, as U.S. GAAP provides that a loss cannot be diluted by potential common stock, which includes the potential exercise of stock options under our share based employee compensation plans and vesting of our restricted stock/restricted stock units.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, options to purchase common stock and unvested restricted stock units estimated to be 7.2 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, options to purchase common stock and unvested restricted stock units estimated to be 5.3 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. The significant increase compared to the prior period is due to the issuance of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1.5 million shares in connection with the New Credit Agreement. These shares could dilute earnings per common share in the future.
A reconciliation of basic loss per common share to diluted loss per common share is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

6.    Fair Value Measurement
Our cash and any investment instruments are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. The types of instruments valued are based on quoted market prices in active markets and are primarily U.S. government and agency securities and money market securities. Such instruments are generally classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
For financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivables, inventory, leases payable, accounts payable and short-term debt, we consider the recorded value of the financial instruments to approximate the fair value based on the liquidity of these financial instruments. As of June 30, 2017, the carrying value of our long-term debt approximated its fair value due to the variable interest rate. We did not have any transfers in or out of Level 1 and Level 2 in the six months ended June 30, 2017 or in the year ended December 31, 2016. We did not hold any significant instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016. For additional information related to our valuation technique and inputs used in the fair value measurement, please see Note 11.
The fair value of our instruments measured on a non-recurring basis during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

8.    Inventory
We did not have an inventory balance as of June 30, 2017. We had an inventory balance of $250 thousand as of December 31, 2016, which was equal to the estimated salvage value of raw materials for our Pet Health Monitoring segment. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we reviewed the facts and circumstances and concluded that the lower of cost or market for the

13



inventory was zero. Therefore, we recorded inventory impairment of $250 thousand in the three months ended June 30, 2017, which is included in impairment of intangibles and other assets in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
9.    Deferred Subscription Solicitation and Commission Costs
Total deferred subscription solicitation and commission costs included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $4.3 million and $5.1 million, respectively. Amortization of deferred subscription solicitation and commission costs, which is included in either marketing or commission expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $3.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively. Amortization of deferred subscription solicitation and commission costs for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $6.1 million and $7.1 million, respectively. Marketing costs expensed as incurred, which are included in marketing expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations as they did not meet the criteria for deferral, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $391 thousand and $512 thousand, respectively. Marketing costs expensed as incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $967 thousand and $1.5 million, respectively.
10.    Internally Developed Capitalized Software
We record internally developed capitalized software as a component of software in property and equipment in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We regularly review our capitalized software projects for impairment. We had no impairments of internally developed capitalized software in the six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016. We record depreciation for internally developed capitalized software in depreciation expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Activity in our internally developed capitalized software during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was as follows (in thousands):

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we did not identify any triggering events related to our goodwill and therefore were not required to test our goodwill for impairment. To the extent our Personal Information Services or Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting units realize unfavorable actual results compared to forecasted results, or decrease forecasted results compared to previous forecasts, or in the event the estimated fair value of those reporting units decrease (as a result, among other things, of changes in market capitalization, including further declines in our stock price), we may incur additional goodwill impairment charges in the future. Future impairment charges on our Personal Information Services reporting unit will be recognized in the operating results of our Personal Information Services segment and our Insurance and Other Consumer Services segment, based on a pro-rata allocation of goodwill.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, there were no adverse changes in our long-lived assets, which would cause a need for an impairment analysis. Intangible assets decreased in the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to the full impairment of assets associated with the decision to wind down our Pet Health Monitoring segment and exit the Habits at Work business.
Intangible assets are amortized over a period of two to ten years. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we had an aggregate amortization expense of $47 thousand and $192 thousand, respectively, which was included in amortization expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, we had an aggregate amortization expense of $93 thousand and $384 thousand, respectively. We estimate that we will have the following amortization expense for the future periods indicated below (in thousands):

We recorded the lease liability at the fair market value of the underlying assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Rental expenses included in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $727 thousand and $681 thousand, respectively. Rental expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $1.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively.
Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings. Except as stated below, we know of no pending or threatened legal proceedings to which we are or will be a party that, if successful, would result in a material adverse change in our business or financial condition.
In July 2012, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") served a Civil Investigative Demand on Intersections Inc. with respect to its billing practices for identity protection and credit monitoring products sold and enrolled through depositary customers. An action was filed on July 1, 2015 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria Division, and a Stipulated Final Judgment and Order (the "Order") concurrently entered, entitled Consumer Financial Protection Bureau v. Intersections Inc. Without admitting or denying the allegations in the complaint, we agreed to implement a satisfactory compliance plan to comply with the Order and to provide a progress update. We paid a civil monetary penalty of $1.2 million in 2015, and in the year ended December 31, 2016, we paid $63 thousand to 661 customers who had not previously received refunds for periods where the full benefit of the service was not delivered. Intersections also submitted an amended compliance plan to the CFPB, to which it responded with no objections on February 1, 2017.
In January 2013, the Office of the West Virginia Attorney General ("WVAG") served Intersections Insurance Services Inc. ("IISI") with a complaint filed in the Circuit Court of Mason County, West Virginia on October 2, 2012. The complaint alleges violations of West Virginia consumer protection laws based on the marketing of unspecified products. On April 21, 2017, the Court granted a motion of the WVAG to add Intersections Inc. as a defendant to the lawsuit. We continue to believe that the claims in the complaint are without merit and intend to vigorously defend this matter.
On March 27, 2017, Jeff Noce, a former employee of our i4c subsidiary, served a Complaint, filed in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia against i4c Innovations LLC and Intersections Inc. The Complaint alleges a dispute regarding the employment and termination of Mr. Noce. We believe the allegations in the Complaint are without merit and intend to vigorously defend this matter.
For information regarding our policy for analyzing legal proceedings, please see "Contingent Liabilities" in Note 2. As of June 30, 2017, we do not have any significant liabilities accrued for any of the legal proceedings mentioned above. We believe based on information currently available that the amount, if any, accrued for the above contingencies is adequate. However, legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and, although we believe that accruals are adequate and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves against such matters, unfavorable resolutions could occur, which could have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole.

We are currently under audit by a state for non-income business taxes. The audit is ongoing and we have not received an assessment to date; however, we believe it is probable that the audit may result in either a negotiated settlement or a liability. We analyzed all the information available to us in order to estimate a liability for this audit as well as potential obligations in other jurisdictions including, but not limited to: the delivery nature of our services; the relationship through which our services are offered; the probability of obtaining resale or exemption certificates; limited, if any, nexus-creating activity; and our historical success in settling or abating liabilities under audit. As a result of this analysis, we recorded a liability of $995 thousand in the three months ended June 30, 2017 for the potential underpayment of taxes and interest, which was recorded primarily in cost of revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We continue to correspond with the applicable authorities in an effort toward resolution of our potential liabilities using a variety of settlement options including, but not limited to, voluntary disclosures, negotiation and standard appeals process, and we may adjust the liability as a result of such correspondence. Additionally, we continue to analyze what other obligations, if any, we have to other state taxing authorities. Proceedings with jurisdictions are inherently unpredictable, but we believe it is reasonably possible that other states may approach us or that the scope of the taxable base in any state may also increase. However, we cannot reasonably estimate the potential amount of future payments due to the unique facts and circumstances involved.
In the six months ended June 30, 2017, we entered into contracts, pursuant to which we agreed to minimum, non-refundable installment payments totaling approximately $1.0 million, payable in monthly and yearly installments through June 30, 2020. These amounts are expensed on a pro-rata basis and are recorded in cost of revenue and general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For additional information on other minimum, non-refundable contracts, please see Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

16.    Debt and Other Financing
New Credit Agreement
On April 20, 2017, we refinanced our existing senior secured indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement with a new $20.0 million term loan facility (which was fully funded at closing) with PEAK6 Investments, L.P. ("PEAK6 Investments").
In order to consummate the refinancing, we and our subsidiaries entered into the New Credit Agreement with PEAK6 Investments as Term Lender and as Administrative Agent, and also entered into a security agreement, a pledge and security agreement, an intellectual property security agreement and other related documents. The New Credit Agreement extends the maturity date, reduces and defers mandatory quarterly principal payments, and carries a lower interest rate compared to the Prior Credit Agreement. The maturity date of the New Credit Agreement is April 20, 2021 with quarterly principal payments of $1.3 million commencing on September 30, 2019. The initial interest rate is 9.486% per annum, to be adjusted annually on March 31 to 7.75% plus 1 year LIBOR, and interest is payable monthly. The New Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all our assets and our pledge of stock and membership interests we hold in any domestic and first-tier foreign subsidiaries.

18



We used approximately $13.9 million of the net proceeds from the New Credit Agreement to repay in full the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay interest, prepayment penalties, transaction fees and expenses as a result of the termination. We expect to use the remainder of the proceeds from the New Credit Agreement for general corporate purposes, including to increase subscriber acquisitions and continue our innovative product development.
In order to consummate the divestiture of i4c Innovations LLC ("i4c" or "Voyce") (see Note 21), on July 31, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment") to the New Credit Agreement among us, the other credit parties party thereto, and PEAK6 Investments. The Amendment removes i4c as a party to the New Credit Agreement and amends the New Credit Agreement to permit the transactions entered into by us and our subsidiaries in connection with the divestiture of i4c.
The New Credit Agreement, as amended, also requires the prepayment of the aggregate principal amount outstanding in an amount equal to 25% of our excess cash flow (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) for each fiscal year commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018 and continuing thereafter. Certain other events defined in the New Credit Agreement require prepayment of the aggregate principal amount of the term loan, including all or a portion of proceeds received from asset dispositions (except for proceeds from the sale of assets in our i4c subsidiary), casualty events, extraordinary receipts, and certain equity issuances. Once amounts borrowed have been paid or prepaid, they may not be reborrowed.
Under the New Credit Agreement, minimum required maturities are as follows (in thousands):

Total outstanding
$

As of June 30, 2017, $20.0 million was outstanding under the New Credit Agreement, which was presented net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount totaling $871 thousand in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As of June 30, 2017, none of the outstanding balance was classified as short-term.
The New Credit Agreement contains certain customary covenants, including among other things covenants that limit or restrict the following: the incurrence of liens; the making of investments including a prohibition of any capital contributions to our subsidiary i4c other than to complete the wind-down as noted above and fair and reasonable allocation of overhead and administrative expenses; the incurrence of certain indebtedness; mergers, dissolutions, liquidations, or consolidations; acquisitions (other than certain permitted acquisitions); sales of substantially all of our or any of our subsidiaries' assets, except for the orderly wind down of the Pet Health Monitoring, and the exits of our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions and Habits at Work businesses; the declaration of certain dividends or distributions; transactions with affiliates (other than parties to the New Credit Agreement) other than on fair and reasonable terms; and the formation or acquisition of any direct or indirect domestic or first-tier foreign subsidiary unless such subsidiary becomes a guarantor and enters into certain security documents.
The New Credit Agreement requires us to maintain at all times a minimum cash on hand amount, as defined in the New Credit Agreement, of at least 20% of the total amount outstanding under the term loan. We are also required to maintain compliance on a quarterly basis commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2017 with minimum consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the New Credit Agreement and adjusted for certain non-cash, non-recurring and other items, and up to $4.3 million of non-recurring charges incurred in the wind-down events) of $2.0 million; provided consolidated EBITDA from the immediately preceding quarter in excess of $2.0 million may be added to a current quarter to make up any shortfall and provided further that when we have not met the minimum consolidated EBITDA test for any quarter (even after including excess consolidated EBITDA for the prior quarter) the test for compliance is deferred until the end of the next quarter and we shall be deemed to be in compliance if, taking into account consolidated EBITDA in excess of $2.0 million from the prior quarter, consolidated EBITDA from the test quarter, and consolidated EBITDA in excess of $2.0 million from the subsequent quarter, we pass the minimum compliance test. Excess consolidated EBITDA in any quarter can be counted only once for determining compliance with this covenant. As of June 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all such covenants.
The New Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including among other things non-payment defaults, covenant defaults, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults, material judgment defaults, ERISA defaults, cross-defaults to other indebtedness, invalidity of loan documents defaults, change in control defaults, conduct of business defaults, and criminal and regulatory action defaults.
Warrant
In connection with the New Credit Agreement, PEAK6 Investments purchased, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million in cash, a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 1.5 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share

19



("Warrant"). The Warrant is immediately exercisable, has a five-year term and shall be exercised solely by a "net share settlement" feature that requires the holder to exercise the Warrant without a cash payment upon the terms set forth therein. The Warrant includes a feature to provide for increases in the number of shares issuable upon exercise in the event of a future change of control transaction (defined therein as a "Designated Event"), with the number of increased shares based upon the time elapsed from issuance of the Warrant and the difference between the exercise price of the Warrant and the transaction price in the change of control, all as more fully set forth in the Warrant. The Warrant also provides for adjustments in the underlying number of shares and exercise price in the event of recapitalizations, stock splits or dividends and other corporate events.
We reviewed the provisions of the warrant contract, and in accordance with U.S. GAAP classified the warrant as a financial equity instrument at its fair value of $2.1 million using the Monte Carlo pricing model. The difference between the fair value and stated value of the warrants resulted in a debt discount of $640 thousand, which is presented net of the long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For additional information related to the fair value of the warrants, please see Note 6.
Stock Redemption
In connection with the New Credit Agreement, we used the proceeds from the sale of the Warrant to repurchase approximately 419 thousand shares of our common stock, pursuant to a redemption agreement from PEAK6 Capital Management LLC at a price of $3.60 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of approximately $1.5 million. PEAK6 Capital Management LLC is an affiliate of PEAK6 Investments.
The repurchase was made pursuant to our previously announced share repurchase program. Following the repurchase, we have approximately $15.3 million remaining under our repurchase program. The repurchases may be made on the open market, in block trades, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. However, we are currently prohibited from repurchasing any shares of common stock under the New Credit Agreement.
Prior Credit Agreement
In March 2016, we and our subsidiaries entered into the Prior Credit Agreement with Crystal Financial SPV LLC. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a $20.0 million term loan, which was fully funded at closing.
In connection with the entry into the New Credit Agreement described above, effective April 20, 2017, we and our applicable subsidiaries satisfied and discharged all obligations under, and terminated, the Prior Credit Agreement, except for obligations that pursuant to the express terms of the Prior Credit Agreement survive payment of the obligations. As of April 20, 2017, $13.4 million was outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement. As a result of the refinancing, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.5 million in the three and six months ending June 30, 2017, including interest, prepayment penalties, transaction fees and expenses totaling approximately $487 thousand as a result of the termination.
17.    Income Taxes
Our consolidated effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 0.3% and zero, respectively. Our consolidated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 0.3% and (0.1)%, respectively. The rates remained relatively flat due to the continued valuation allowance.
We continued to evaluate all significant available positive and negative evidence including, but not limited to, our three-year cumulative loss, as adjusted for permanent items; insufficient sources of taxable income in prior carryback periods in order to utilize all of the existing definite-lived net deferred tax assets; unavailability of prudent and feasible tax-planning strategies; negative adjustments to our projected taxable income; and scheduling of the future reversals of existing temporary differences. As a result, we were not able to recognize a net tax benefit associated with our pre-tax loss in the six months ended June 30, 2017, as there has been no change to the conclusion from the year ended December 31, 2016 that it was more likely than not that we would not generate sufficient taxable income in the foreseeable future to realize our net deferred tax assets.
The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable as of June 30, 2017 could be adjusted if facts and circumstances in future reporting periods change, including, but not limited to, generating sufficient future taxable income in the carryforward periods. If certain substantial changes in the entity’s ownership were to occur, there would be an annual limitation on the amount of the carryforwards that can be utilized in the future. The remaining deferred tax liability as of June 30, 2017 relates to an indefinite-lived intangible.
There were no material changes to our uncertain tax positions during the three or six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016.
18.    Stockholders’ Equity
Share Based Compensation
We currently issue equity and equity-based awards under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), and we have three inactive stock incentive plans: the 1999 Stock Option Plan, the 2004 Stock Option Plan and the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan. As of

20



June 30, 2017, we have 3.7 million shares of common stock available for future grants of awards under the Plan, and awards for approximately 5.7 million shares are outstanding under all of our active and inactive plans. In April 2017, our Board of Directors approved a second amendment to the 2014 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized and reserved for issuance thereunder by 4.0 million shares, from 5.5 million shares to 9.5 million shares. The amendment was effective immediately upon our stockholders' approval in May 2017. Individual awards under these plans may take the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units.
Stock Options
Total share based compensation expense recognized for stock options, which is included in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $34 thousand and $11 thousand, respectively. Total share based compensation expense recognized for stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $69 thousand and $11 thousand, respectively.

Other
In addition to the stock options and RSUs, we determined the majority of the earn-out provisions in the business we acquired in March 2015 from Habits at Work to be share based compensation expense. In the three months ended June 30, 2017, we did not record share based compensation expense related to the earn-out, as the Habits at Work business was sold effective June 1, 2017. In the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded share based compensation expense of $313 thousand, which is included in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In the six months ended June 30, 2017, we reduced share based compensation expense by $57 thousand due to actual Habits at Work performance being lower than forecasted. In the six months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded share based compensation expense of $617 thousand. Due to the exit of the Habits at Work business, there is no remaining unrecognized compensation expense.
As a result of shares withheld for tax purposes on the vesting of a restricted stock award, we increased our treasury shares by 33 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2017. Under the New Credit Agreement, we are currently prohibited from declaring and paying ordinary cash or stock dividends or repurchasing any shares of common stock.
In connection with the New Credit Agreement, PEAK6 Investments purchased, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million in cash, a Warrant to purchase an aggregate of 1.5 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. Additionally, we used the proceeds from the sale of the Warrant to repurchase approximately 419 thousand shares of our common stock, pursuant to a redemption agreement from PEAK6 Capital Management LLC at a price of $3.60 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of approximately $1.5 million. For additional information, please see Note 16.

In conjunction with our singular refocus on our identity and privacy protection services, we changed our policy of allocating general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments, which resulted in a change in our measurement of segment profit and loss. Beginning in 2017, we directly charge our Personal Information Services segment for the majority of general and administrative expenses including executive, legal, human resources, finance and internal audit expenses. We have elected not to recast our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 the change in measurement would have had the approximate effects of a $2.4 million decrease in income from operations in our Personal Information Services segment, a $1.8 million decrease in loss from operations in our Corporate business unit and insignificant changes in our other segments. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 the change in measurement would have had the approximate effects of a $4.4 million decrease in income from operations in our Personal Information Services segment, a $3.3 million decrease in loss from operations in our Corporate business unit and insignificant changes in our other segments.

21.    Subsequent Events
On July 31, 2017, we divested i4c to One Health Group, LLC (the "Purchaser"), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a membership interest purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"). i4c conducted the Company’s Pet Health Monitoring business known as Voyce. The purchase price is equal to (i) the sum of $100, plus (ii) a revenue participation of up to $20.0 million, payable pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser is also obligated to reimburse (or cause i4c to reimburse) us for the full amount of any operating expenses of i4c incurred after July 8, 2017 (other than certain severance payments payable to i4c employees).
The Purchaser is a newly-formed entity of which Michael R. Stanfield, our Chairman and Founder, is a minority investor, and certain former members of the i4c management team are the managing member and investors. Except as described above, there are no material relationships between the Purchaser, on the one hand, and us or any of our affiliates, directors, officers, or any associate of such directors or officers, on the other hand.
The total value of the consideration paid pursuant to the Purchase Agreement was determined through arm’s length negotiations that took into account a number of factors of the Pet Health Monitoring business, including historical revenues, operating history, business contracts, obligations and commitments and other factors. The terms of the transaction were approved by our independent directors.
In addition, in order to consummate the divestiture of i4c, we entered into the Amendment to our New Credit Agreement. The Amendment removes i4c as a party to the New Credit Agreement and amends the New Credit Agreement to permit the transactions entered into by us and our subsidiaries in connection with the divestiture of i4c.
We expect to report, and recast where applicable, the operations of the Pet Health Monitoring segment as a discontinued operation in our unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP beginning in the three months ending September 30, 2017. The Pet Health Monitoring segment’s loss from operations constituted 18% and 123% of the consolidated loss from operations in the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For additional information, please see Exhibit 99.2 to the Form 8-K filed on August 4, 2017, as well as the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information related to the sale of i4c included in such filing.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, and as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "Form 10-K"), and with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto presented in this Form 10-Q.
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this discussion and analysis relating to future plans, results, performance, expectations, achievements and the like are considered "forward-looking statements" under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project,'' "plan," "intend," "believe," "may," "should," "can have," "likely" and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. Those forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by those statements, including the success of our strategic objectives; our ability to generate revenue from our partner sales strategy and business development pipeline with our distribution partners; the impact of shutting down and then divesting our Pet Health Monitoring segment; the timing and success of new product launches and other growth initiatives, including our new Identity Guard® with Watson product; the continuing impact of the regulatory environment on our business; the continued dependence on a small number of financial institutions for a majority of our revenue and to service our U.S. financial institution customer base; our ability to execute our strategy and previously announced transformation plan; our incurring additional restructuring charges; our incurring additional charges for non-income business taxes or otherwise, or impairment costs or charges on goodwill and/or other assets; our ability to control costs; our expectations for marketing and investment expenditures; our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity and produce sufficient cash flow to fund our business, growth strategy and debt service obligations; and our needs for additional capital to grow our business, including our ability to maintain compliance with the covenants under our term loan or seek additional sources of debt and/or equity financing. Factors and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ include but are not limited to the risks disclosed under "Forward-Looking Statements," "Item 1. Business—Government Regulation" and "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and herein and in its recent other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements unless required by applicable law.
Overview
We provide innovative, information based solutions that help consumers manage risks and make better informed life decisions. Under our Identity Guard® brand and other brands that comprise our Personal Information Services segment, we help consumers monitor, manage and protect against the risks associated with their identities and personal information. We offer identity theft and privacy protection as well as credit monitoring services for consumers to understand, monitor, manage and protect their personal information and privacy. Under our Identity Guard® and recently launched Identity Guard® with Watson products, we help protect consumers against the risks associated with the inappropriate exposure of their personal information that can result in fraudulent use or reputation damage. Identity Guard® is offered to consumers through direct marketing or through organizations as an embedded product for employees or consumers. In late 2016, we expanded our suite of Identity Guard® products and launched Identity Guard® with Watson. Identity Guard® with Watson offers robust early detection of potential risks and provides personalized threat alerts with actionable steps to help keep our customers’ information private from the earliest stage possible. We believe that our suite of products and services offer consumers the most proactive and comprehensive identity theft monitoring service available on the market today.
We have ongoing operations in one other segment, Insurance and Other Consumer Services, and we divested two other segments, Pet Health Monitoring and Bail Bonds Industry Solutions. As part of our strategy to have a singular focus on our Personal Information Services segment, we recently sold: 1) the business comprising our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment in January 2017; 2) our Habits at Work business, the results of which are recorded in our Personal Information Services segment, in June 2017; and 3) the business comprising our Pet Health Monitoring segment in July 2017. Corporate headquarter office transactions including, but not limited to, payroll, share based compensation and other expenses related to our Chairman and non-employee Board of Directors are reported in our Corporate business unit.
Recent Developments
New Credit Agreement
On April 20, 2017, we refinanced our existing senior secured indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement (as defined below) with a new $20.0 million term loan facility ("New Credit Agreement"), which was fully funded at closing, with PEAK6 Investments,

25



L.P. ("PEAK6 Investments"). The New Credit Agreement extends the maturity date, reduces and defers mandatory quarterly principal payments, and carries a lower interest rate compared to the Prior Credit Agreement. The maturity date of the New Credit Agreement is April 20, 2021 with quarterly principal payments of $1.3 million commencing on September 30, 2019. The initial interest rate is 9.486% per annum, to be adjusted annually on March 31 to 7.75% plus 1 year LIBOR.
We used approximately $13.9 million of the net proceeds from the New Credit Agreement to repay in full the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the credit agreement dated as of March 21, 2016, as amended from time to time, among us, the other Credit Parties party thereto, Crystal Financial SPV LLC as term lender, and Crystal Financial LLC as administrative agent for the secured parties ("Prior Credit Agreement"), and to pay related interest and prepayment penalties, transaction fees and expenses. We expect to use the remainder of the proceeds from the New Credit Agreement for general corporate purposes, including to increase subscriber acquisitions and continue our innovative product development.
In connection with the New Credit Agreement, PEAK6 Investments purchased, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million in cash, a warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase an aggregate of 1.5 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is immediately exercisable and has a five year term. Additionally, in connection with the New Credit Agreement, we used the proceeds from the sale of the Warrant to repurchase approximately 419 thousand shares of our common stock, pursuant to a redemption agreement from PEAK6 Capital Management LLC at a price of $3.60 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of approximately $1.5 million. PEAK6 Capital Management LLC is an affiliate of PEAK6 Investments. For additional information on the New Credit Agreement, please see "—Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.
Divestiture of Voyce
On July 31, 2017, we entered into and consummated the divestiture of Voyce to One Health Group, LLC (the "Purchaser"), pursuant to the terms and conditions of a membership interest purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") between our wholly owned subsidiary and the Purchaser. The purchase price for the Interests (the "Purchase Price") is equal to (i) the sum of one hundred dollars ($100), paid in cash at closing, plus (ii) a revenue participation of up to $20.0 million (the "Maximum Amount"), payable pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement. The Purchaser is also obligated to reimburse (or cause Voyce to reimburse) us for the full amount of any operating expenses of Voyce incurred after July 8, 2017 (other than certain severance payments payable to Voyce employees).
The Purchaser is a newly-formed entity of which Michael R. Stanfield, our Chairman and Founder, is a minority investor, and certain former members of the Voyce management team are the managing member and investors.
Amendment to New Credit Agreement
In order to consummate the divestiture of Voyce, on July 31, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 1 (the "Amendment") to the New Credit Agreement among us, the other credit parties party thereto, and PEAK6 Investments. The Amendment removes i4c as a party to the New Credit Agreement and amends the New Credit Agreement to permit the transactions entered into by the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with the divestiture of i4c.
Personal Information Services
Our Personal Information Services segment includes privacy, personal information security and identity theft monitoring and remediation services to help consumers understand, monitor, manage and protect against the risks associated with the inappropriate and sometimes criminal exposure of their personal information. Our current services include: providing credit reports, performing credit monitoring and providing educational credit scores and credit education; reports, monitoring and education about other personal information and risks, such as public records, identity validation, new account opening and Internet data risks; identity theft recovery services; identity theft cost reimbursement insurance of up to $1.0 million underwritten by a prominent insurance company; and software and other technology tools and services. Our resolution team applies its expertise to assist consumers with the remediation of confirmed identity theft events by providing pertinent documentation, communicating directly with creditors and placing fraud alerts on their behalf. We also offer breach response services to large and small organizations responding to compromises of sensitive personal information and other customer and employee data. We help these organizations notify the affected individuals and we provide the affected individuals with identity theft recovery and credit monitoring services. We continue to develop innovative new services and tools to add to our Identity Guard® portfolio and address the increasing awareness by consumers of the risks associated with their personal information.
We believe the threat to consumers’ personal information goes beyond traditional credit monitoring. The proliferation of data breaches, the pervasive use of social media and the increased sophistication of cyber criminals requires a solution for consumers’ needs in the identity protection space. To effectively identify, manage and remediate these new threats to consumers, we launched Identity Guard® with Watson in 2016. Identity Guard® with Watson is an identity theft monitoring and privacy advisory solution that can be personalized to each individual’s specific needs and is designed to protect the entire family. Identity Guard® with Watson maximizes the power of IBM Watson cognitive computing to offer consumers the traditional credit monitoring services as well as non-credit related preventative alert services, using previously unmonitored unstructured data sources and processes and safer web browsing tools. Identity Guard® with Watson also equips users to reduce their risk of identity theft by educating individuals

26



on existing risks to their personal information and recommending personalized remediation actions. We believe it is the first product of its kind that uses natural language processing and machine learning to reveal insights from large amounts of unstructured data, delivered through the IBM Watson technology platform. This platform is more scalable and adaptable than our legacy platform, which we believe will enable us to develop innovative new products and features for consumers and organizations more readily than in the past. We plan to focus on making Identity Guard® with Watson our leading offering to consumers in the U.S. and Canada.
We derive the majority of our revenue from historical agreements with U.S. financial institutions, which constituted approximately 56% and 59% of our Personal Information Services segment revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Revenue from our largest client, Bank of America, constituted approximately 45% and 48% of our Personal Information Services segment revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Bank of America ceased marketing of our services to new customers in 2011. Under our agreements with Bank of America, we continue to provide our services to the subscribers we acquired through Bank of America before December 31, 2011, subject to normal attrition and other ongoing adjustments by us or Bank of America, which may result in cancellation of certain subscribers or groups of subscribers. Bank of America, however, has the right to require us to cease providing services to its customers under existing subscriptions if the contract is terminated due to material breach by us or based on various events such as certain legal or regulatory changes, a party’s bankruptcy or insolvency, or other events. Furthermore, we are dependent on Bank of America to cooperate in continued servicing, including subscriber billing. We did not generate any new subscribers from Bank of America or other U.S. financial institution clients in 2017 or 2016, as all marketing of our products by our financial institution clients in the U.S. was terminated in both our Personal Information Services and Insurance and Other Consumer Services segments.
In 2016 and 2017, we continued to expand our business relationships with new partners including retail, communication and other industrial partners, as well as partnering with employers to offer Identity Guard® as an employee benefit option. We also expanded our internal business development and client relationship divisions to ensure wider coverage across the U.S., and we made investments in our internal systems and member platforms in order to build and enhance our partner distribution channels and generate subscriber growth. We continue to develop, improve and expand upon all of these initiatives.
Insurance and Other Consumer Services
 Our Insurance and Other Consumer Services segment includes insurance and membership products for consumers, delivered on a subscription basis. We are not planning to develop new business in this segment and are experiencing normal subscriber attrition due to ceased marketing and retention efforts. Some of our legacy subscriber portfolios have been cancelled, and our continued servicing of other subscribers may be cancelled as a result of actions taken by one or more financial institutions.
Other
Prior to July 31, 2017, our Pet Health Monitoring segment included the health and wellness monitoring products and services for veterinarians and pet owners through our former subsidiary, i4c Innovations LLC ("i4c" or "Voyce"). Effective July 31, 2017, we divested our ownership in Voyce. This segment will be classified as a discontinued operation beginning in the three months ending September 30, 2017. For additional information, please see Note 21 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Prior to January 31, 2017, our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment included the automated service solutions for the bail bonds industry provided by Captira Analytical ("Captira"). Effective January 31, 2017, we divested our ownership in Captira. This segment’s operating results have not had a major effect on our condensed consolidated financial results and are not classified as a discontinued operation. For additional information, please see Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management Estimates
In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we make estimates and assumptions that can have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations. The application of our critical accounting policies requires an evaluation of a number of complex criteria and significant accounting judgments by us. In applying those policies, our management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions. We have identified the following policies as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our condensed consolidated results of operations. For further information on our critical and other accounting policies, please see Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue on 1) identity theft protection services, 2) insurance services and 3) other monthly membership products and transaction services.

27



Our products and services are offered to consumers principally on a monthly subscription basis. Subscription fees billed by our clients are generally billed directly to the subscriber’s credit card, mortgage bill or demand deposit accounts. Subscription fees billed by us are generally billed directly to the subscriber’s credit card except for arrangements under which subscription fees are paid to us by our clients on behalf of the subscriber. The prices to subscribers of various configurations of our products and services range generally from $4.99 to $25.00 per month. As a means of allowing customers to become familiar with our services, our subscriptions periodically may be offered with trial, delayed billing or guaranteed refund periods. No revenues are recognized until applicable trial periods are completed.
Identity Theft Protection Services
We recognize revenue from our services when: a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists as we maintain signed contracts with all of our clients and paper and electronic confirmations with individual purchasers, b) delivery has occurred, c) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed as sales are generally based on contract or list prices and payments from organizations are collected within 30 days with no significant write-offs, and d) collectability is reasonably assured as individual customers pay by credit card which has limited our risk of non-collection. Revenue for monthly subscriptions is recognized in the month the subscription fee is earned. We also generate revenue through a collaborative arrangement, which involves joint marketing and servicing activities. We recognize our share of revenues and expenses from this arrangement.
Revenue for annual subscription fees must be deferred if the subscriber has the right to cancel the service and the service is earned over the year. Annual subscriptions include subscribers with full refund provisions at any time during the subscription period and pro-rata refund provisions. Revenue related to annual subscriptions with full refund provisions is recognized on the expiration of these refund provisions. Revenue related to annual subscribers with pro-rata provisions is recognized based on a pro-rata share of revenue earned. An allowance for discretionary subscription refunds is established based on our historical experience. For subscriptions with refund provisions whereby only the prorated subscription fee is refunded upon cancellation by the subscriber, deferred subscription fees are recorded when billed and amortized as subscription fee revenue on a straight-line basis over the subscription period, generally one year.
We record revenue on a gross basis in the amount that we bill the subscriber when our arrangements provide for us to serve as the primary obligor in the transaction, we have latitude in establishing price and we bear the credit risk for the amount billed to the subscriber. We also provide services for which certain clients are the primary obligors directly to their customers. We record revenue in the amount that we bill certain clients, and not the amount billed to their customers, when our client is the primary obligor, establishes the price to the customer and bears the credit risk. Revenue from these arrangements is recognized on a monthly basis when earned, which is at the time we provide the service.
Insurance Services
We recognize revenue from our services when: a) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists as we maintain paper and electronic confirmations with individual purchasers, b) delivery has occurred, c) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed as the price of the product is agreed to by the customer as a condition of the sales transaction which established the sales arrangement, and d) collectability is reasonably assured as evidenced by our collection of revenue through the monthly mortgage payments of our customers or through checking account debits to our customers’ accounts. Revenues from insurance contracts are recognized when earned.
For insurance products, we record revenue on a net basis as we perform as an agent or broker for the insurance products without assuming the risks of ownership of the insurance products.
We participate in agency relationships with insurance carriers that underwrite insurance products offered by us. Accordingly, insurance premiums collected from customers and remitted to insurance carriers are excluded from our revenues and operating expenses. Insurance premiums collected but not remitted to insurance carriers as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 totaled $371 thousand and $360 thousand, respectively, and are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other Membership Products and Transaction Services
For other membership products, we record revenue on a gross basis as we serve as the primary obligor in the transactions, have latitude in establishing price and bear credit risk for the amount billed to the subscriber.
Goodwill, Identifiable Intangibles and Other Long-Lived Assets
We record, as goodwill, the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired in purchase transactions. We review our goodwill for impairment annually, as of October 31, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. Goodwill is reflected as an asset in our Personal Information Services and Insurance and Other Consumer Services segments’ balance sheets, resulting from our acquisitions of Health at Work Wellness Actuaries LLC ("Habits at Work") and White Sky, Inc. ("White Sky") in 2015 as well as our prior acquisition of IISI Insurance Services Inc. ("IISI"), formerly known as Intersections Insurance Services Inc., in 2006.

28



On January 1, 2017, we prospectively adopted ASU 2017-04, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other." In evaluating whether indicators of impairment exist, an initial assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the goodwill impairment test can be utilized (commonly referred to as the step zero approach). For reporting units in which the qualitative assessment concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value is more than its carrying value, the guidance eliminates the requirement to perform further goodwill impairment testing. For those reporting units where a significant change or event occurs, and where potential impairment indicators exist, we perform the quantitative assessment to test goodwill for impairment. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others (a) a significant decline in our expected future cash flows; (b) a sustained, significant decline in our stock price and market capitalization; (c) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; (d) unanticipated competition; (e) the testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and (f) slower growth rates. Any adverse change in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of these assets and could have a material impact in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
The quantitative assessment is a comparison of each reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying value. We estimate fair value using the best information available, using a combined income approach (discounted cash flow) and market based approach. The income approach measures the value of the reporting units by the present values of its economic benefits. These benefits can include revenue and cost savings. The market based approach measures the value of an entity through an analysis of recent sales or offerings of comparable companies and using revenue and other multiples of comparable companies as a reasonable basis to estimate our implied multiples. Value indications are developed by discounting expected cash flows to their present value at a rate of return that incorporates the risk-free rate for use of funds, trends within the industry, and risks associated with particular investments of similar type and quality as of the valuation date. In addition, we consider the uncertainty of realizing the projected cash flows in the analysis.
The estimated fair values of our reporting units are dependent on several significant assumptions, including our earnings projections, and cost of capital (discount rate). The projections use management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including business plans, growth rates in sales, costs, and estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, estimates of future capital expenditures, changes in future working capital requirements and overhead cost allocation, based on each reporting unit’s relative benefit received from the functions that reside in our Corporate business unit. We perform a detailed analysis of our Corporate overhead costs for purposes of establishing the overhead allocation baseline for the projection period. Overhead allocation methods include, but are not limited to, the percentage of the payroll within each reporting unit, allocation of existing support function costs based on estimated usage by the reporting units, and vendor specific costs incurred by Corporate that can be reasonably attributed to a particular reporting unit. These allocations are adjusted over the projected period in our discounted cash flow analysis based on the forecasted changing relative needs of the reporting units. Throughout the forecast period, the majority of Corporate’s total overhead expenses are allocated to our Personal Information Services reporting unit. We believe this overhead allocation method fairly allocates costs to each reporting unit, and we will continue to review, and possibly refine, these allocation methods as our businesses grow and mature. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying each to the analysis of the recoverability of goodwill.
We estimate fair value giving consideration to both the income and market approaches. Consideration is given to the line of business and operating performance of the entities being valued relative to those of actual transactions, potentially subject to corresponding economic, environmental, and political factors considered to be reasonable investment alternatives.
If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, then a goodwill impairment loss is recognized for the amount that the carrying value of the reporting unit (including goodwill) exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
As of June 30, 2017, goodwill of $347 thousand resided in our Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting unit and goodwill of $9.4 million resided in our Personal Information Services reporting unit. There is no goodwill remaining in our other reporting units. For additional information, please see Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
We review long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, property and equipment and other long-term assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. Significant judgments in this area involve determining whether a triggering event has occurred and determining the future cash flows for assets involved. In conducting our analysis, we would compare the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the long-lived assets to the related net book values. If the undiscounted cash flows exceed the net book value, the long-lived assets are considered not to be impaired. If the net book value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is measured and recognized. An impairment charge is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived assets. Fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows associated with these assets.
Intangible assets subject to amortization may include customer, marketing and technology related intangibles, as well as trademarks. Such intangible assets, excluding customer related intangibles, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which are generally two to ten years. Customer related intangible assets are amortized on either a straight-line or

29



accelerated basis, depending upon the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed or otherwise used up.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the related debt agreements. The effective interest rate applied to the amortization is reviewed periodically and may change if actual principal repayments of the term loan differ from estimates. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, short-term and long-term debt are presented net of the unamortized debt issuance costs in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Classification of Debt
On April 20, 2017, we refinanced our existing credit agreement dated as of March 21, 2016, as amended from time to time ("Prior Credit Agreement"), with a new $20.0 million term loan facility (as amended to date, the "New Credit Agreement"). Pursuant to the New Credit Agreement, as amended, we are required to make certain prepayments on our term loans in addition to scheduled quarterly repayments, including but not limited to asset dispositions, extraordinary receipts, excess cash flows (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) and certain equity issuances. Scheduled quarterly repayments and estimated prepayments that we expect to remit in the next twelve months, if any, are classified as the current portion of long-term debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements, net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount to be amortized in the next twelve months based on the current effective interest rate applied.
Share Based Compensation
We currently issue equity and equity-based awards under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Individual awards under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan may take the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units.
The Compensation Committee administers the Plan, and the grants are approved by either the Compensation Committee or by appropriate members of Management in accordance with authority delegated by the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock units in the Plan that have expired, terminated, or been canceled or forfeited are available for issuance or use in connection with future awards.
We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value all options and the straight-line method to amortize this fair value as compensation cost over the requisite service period. The fair value of each option granted has been estimated as of the date of grant with the following weighted-average assumptions for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
Expected Dividend Yield. Under the Prior Credit Agreement, we were prohibited from declaring and paying dividends and therefore, the dividend yield was zero for 2017 and 2016.
Expected Volatility. The expected volatility of options granted was estimated based upon our historical share price volatility based on the expected term of the underlying grants, or approximately 49% and 45% for 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Risk-free Interest Rate. The yield on actively traded non-inflation indexed U.S. Treasury notes was used to extrapolate an average risk-free interest rate based on the expected term of the underlying grants, or approximately 1.8% and 1.1% for 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Expected Term. The expected term of options granted was determined by considering employees’ historical exercise patterns, or approximately 5.0 years and 4.8 years for 2017 and 2016, respectively. We will continue to review our estimate in the future and adjust it, if necessary, due to changes in our historical exercises.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we assess the probability that the performance conditions of any performance-based restricted stock units ("PBRSUs") will be achieved and record share based compensation expense based on the probable outcome of that performance condition. Vesting of PBRSUs is dependent upon continued employment and achievement of defined performance goals for the year, which is based upon Adjusted EBITDA as defined and determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. We recognize the share based compensation expense ratably over the implied service period. PBRSUs will vest no later than March 15 of the year after they are granted. We may make changes to our assessment of probability and therefore, adjust share based compensation expense accordingly throughout the vesting period. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we did not grant PBRSUs.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under the applicable provisions of U.S. GAAP, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including projected future taxable income and future reversal of existing deferred tax assets and liabilities, sufficient sources of taxable income

30



in available carryback periods, tax-planning strategies, and historical results of recent operations. The assumptions about future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates we are using to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider three trailing years of cumulative operating income (loss). Valuation allowances are provided, if, based upon the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Changes in tax laws and rates may affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities and our effective tax rate in the future.
Accounting for income taxes in interim periods provides that at the end of each interim period we are required to make our best estimate of the consolidated effective tax rate expected to be applicable for our full calendar year. The rate so determined shall be used in providing for income taxes on a consolidated current year-to-date basis. Further, the rate is reviewed, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during the year to our best estimate of our annual effective tax rate.
In addition to the amount of tax resulting from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to income from operations before income taxes, we may include certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated overall tax amount.
We believe that our tax positions comply with applicable tax law. As a matter of course, we may be audited by various taxing authorities and these audits may result in proposed assessments where the ultimate resolution may result in us owing additional taxes. U.S. GAAP addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. We may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. U.S. GAAP provides guidance on how an enterprise should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits.
Our income tax expense and liability and/or receivable, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for uncertain tax benefits reflect management’s best assessment of estimated current and future taxes to be paid or received. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense.
Contingent Liabilities
We may become involved in litigation or other financial claims as a result of our normal business operations. We periodically analyze currently available information and make a determination of the probability of loss and provide a range of possible loss when we believe that sufficient and appropriate information is available. We accrue a liability for those contingencies where the incurrence of a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is probable and a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated but no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount in the range, then the minimum of the range is accrued. We do not accrue a liability when the likelihood that the liability has been incurred is believed to be probable but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated or when the likelihood that a liability has been incurred is believed to be only reasonably possible or remote. For contingencies where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the impact could potentially be material, we disclose the nature of the contingency and, where feasible, an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss.

Personal Information Services Segment
Loss from operations for this segment for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to income from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016, is primarily due to lower revenue from our financial institution client base and increased general and administrative expenses, partially offset by decreased commission expenses.

Revenue. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to a $2.5 million decline in revenue from our Bank of America and other financial institution clients, which is primarily the result of normal subscriber attrition within the portfolios we continue to service. Due to our ceased marketing and retention efforts, we expect revenue and related earnings from our financial institution client base to continue to decrease.
The decrease in revenue and subscribers in our Identity Guard® business line compared to the prior year period is primarily due to a decrease in subscribers acquired through one of our partners that is no longer marketing our products. Near the end of the second quarter, we reduced marketing spending in certain direct to consumer channels and expect to continue a reduced level of spending for the remainder of 2017, which may result in reduced subscriber additions in those channels. However, we continue to focus on improving and expanding our affiliate marketing programs and partner relationships, which, if successful, could increase our revenue and subscriber counts over the next twelve months.
We expect revenue and subscribers in our Canadian business lines to increase slightly in 2017. In August 2016, our Canadian joint marketing agreement began transitioning to a new partner, which was successfully completed in early 2017. We believe our new partner, who has previous experience in the identity theft monitoring business and has existing relationships with Canadian businesses, will be successful in growing our Canadian market share.

____________________
(1)
We periodically refine the criteria used to calculate and report our subscriber data. In the six months ended June 30, 2017, we determined that certain subscribers who receive our breach response services should no longer be included in the presentation of Identity Guard® subscribers or revenue due to the nonrecurring nature of our breach response services. For comparability, all periods presented have been recast to reflect this change in subscribers and revenue.
Personal Information Services Operating Expenses
Marketing Expenses. Marketing expenses consisted of subscriber acquisition costs, including affiliate marketing payments, search engine marketing, web-based marketing and direct mail expenses such as printing and postage. In the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, our marketing expenses resulted primarily from marketing activity for direct-to-consumer and Canadian subscriber acquisitions, which decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2016. Amortization of deferred subscription solicitation costs related to marketing of our products for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $2.8 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Marketing costs that do not meet the criteria for capitalization and are expensed as incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $389 thousand and $264 thousand, respectively. We continue to expect our limited direct-to-consumer marketing spend to focus on our historically most productive channels or programs, which may result in less marketing costs, reduced subscriber acquisitions and revenue.
As a percentage of revenue, marketing expenses increased to 8.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 7.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Commission Expenses. Commission expenses consist of commissions paid to clients. The decrease is related to a decrease in overall subscribers for which commissions are paid, which is largely from our financial institution subscriber base. We expect our commission expenses to continue to decline in future quarters primarily due to normal attrition of subscribers in client portfolios with no new marketing activity.
As a percentage of revenue, commission expenses decreased to 23.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 24.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue consists of the costs of operating our customer service and information processing centers, data costs, and billing costs for subscribers and one-time transactional sales. The increase is primarily due to an estimated liability for non-income business taxes of $844 thousand (or 2.2% of revenue), partially offset by lower volumes of data fulfillment and service costs for subscribers. For additional information regarding non-income business taxes, please see "Liquidity and Capital Resources — Other" below.
As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 35.0% for three months ended June 30, 2017 from 30.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist of personnel and facilities expenses associated with our executive, sales, marketing, information technology, legal, human resources and finance functions, as well as the majority of internal audit and other corporate overhead costs. Beginning in January 2017, we changed our overhead allocation measurement as a result of decisions to exit the Pet Health Monitoring and Bail Bonds Industry Solutions businesses, which resulted in an increase of at least $2.4 million (or at least 6.2% of revenue) in general and administrative expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year quarter, including share based compensation expense of $809 thousand. The increase in general and administrative expenses was also due to $1.0 million of executive management bonuses approved by the Compensation Committee in the three months ended June 30, 2017, of which $800 thousand (or 2.1% of revenue) was charged to this segment, and increased headcount in our sales department and partner sales channel. As a result of the change in corporate overhead allocation, we

34



expect unfavorable variances compared to the prior year quarters in general and administrative expenses for the remainder of 2017. For additional information, please see "—Corporate" below.
As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses increased significantly to 36.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 24.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Depreciation. Depreciation consists primarily of depreciation of our fixed assets and capitalized software. The increase is primarily due to internally developed capitalized software related to the development of Identity Guard® with Watson, the majority of which was placed into service in late 2016.
As a percentage of revenue, depreciation increased to 3.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 2.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Goodwill. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we did not identify any triggering events related to our goodwill and therefore were not required to test our goodwill for impairment. To the extent our Personal Information Services reporting unit realizes unfavorable actual results compared to forecasted results, or decreases forecasted results compared to previous forecasts, or in the event the estimated fair value of the reporting unit decreases, we may incur additional impairment charges in the future. Future impairment charges in this reporting unit will be recognized in the operating results of our Personal Information Services segment and our Insurance and Other Consumer Service segment, based on a pro-rata allocation.
Insurance and Other Consumer Services Segment
Income from operations for this segment for three months ended June 30, 2017, compared to loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016, is primarily due to decreased general and administrative and commission expenses, partially offset by decreased revenue.

Revenue. The decrease in revenue continues to be due to the attrition in our existing subscriber base as well as portfolio cancellations, which consists of purchasers of both insurance and membership services that have recurring subscription benefits, and minimal new subscription sales due to substantially ceased marketing efforts by most of our clients for these products. We had approximately 44 thousand subscribers as of June 30, 2017, which is a 27% decrease from our subscriber base of 60 thousand subscribers as of June 30, 2016.
Commission Expenses. Commission expenses consist of commissions paid to our clients and other partners. The decrease is related to a decrease in overall subscribers for which commissions are paid. We expect our commission expenses to continue to decline in future periods primarily due to normal attrition of subscribers in our existing portfolios with no new marketing activity.
As a percentage of revenue, commission expenses increased to 39.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 32.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue consists of the costs of operating our customer service center and network costs for subscribers.
As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 9.7% for three months ended June 30, 2017 from 6.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist of personnel and facilities expenses associated with our sales, marketing, information technology and program and account management functions. The significant decrease is primarily due to decreased payroll-related costs as a result of the change in our policy of allocating general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments.

As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased significantly to 18.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from 72.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2016.
Goodwill. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we did not identify any triggering events related to our goodwill and therefore were not required to test our goodwill for impairment. To the extent our Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting unit realizes unfavorable actual results compared to forecasted results, or decreases forecasted results compared to previous forecasts, or in the event the estimated fair value of the reporting unit decreases, we may incur additional impairment charges in the future.

In 2016, in connection with our strategy to focus on identity and privacy protection services, we initiated a plan to divest the business. Effective January 31, 2017, we divested our ownership in Captira, which marked the conclusion of our operations in our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment. This segment’s operating results have not had a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial results and are not classified as a discontinued operation.
Corporate
In the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, our loss from operations of $1.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively, primarily consisted of general and administrative expenses. In conjunction with our singular refocus on our identity and privacy protection services, we changed our policy of allocating general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments, which resulted in a change in our measurement of segment profit and loss. Beginning in 2017, we directly charge our Personal Information Services segment for the majority of general and administrative expenses including executive, legal, human resources, finance and internal audit expenses. General and administrative expenses in our Corporate business unit primarily consist of payroll, share based compensation and other expenses related to our Chairman and non-employee Board of Directors. As a result, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the three months

36



ended June 30, 2016, of which approximately $1.1 million was the effect of the change in measurement of segment profit and loss, and we expect that decrease to continue for the remainder of 2017.
Total share based compensation expense in our Corporate business unit for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $450 thousand and $1.1 million, respectively.

Personal Information Services Segment
Loss from operations for this segment for the six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to income from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016, is primarily due to lower revenue from our financial institution client base and increased general and administrative expenses, partially offset by decreased commission expenses.

Revenue. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to a $5.3 million decline in revenue from our Bank of America and other financial institution clients, which is primarily the result of normal subscriber attrition within the portfolios we continue to service. Due to our ceased marketing and retention efforts, we expect revenue and related earnings from our financial institution client base to continue to decrease.
The decrease in revenue and subscribers in our Identity Guard® business line compared to the prior year period is primarily due to a decrease in subscribers acquired through one of our partners that is no longer marketing our products. Additionally, revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from subscribers acquired through our direct-to-consumer marketing channels was lower than the prior year period. Near the end of the second quarter, we reduced marketing spending in certain direct to consumer channels and expect to continue a reduced level of spending for the remainder of 2017, which may result in reduced subscriber additions in those channels. However, we continue to focus on improving and expanding our affiliate marketing programs and partner relationships, which, if successful, could increase our revenue and subscriber counts over the next twelve months.
We expect revenue and subscribers in our Canadian business lines to increase slightly in 2017. In August 2016, our Canadian joint marketing agreement began transitioning to a new partner, which was successfully completed in early 2017. We believe our new partner, who has previous experience in the identity theft monitoring business and has existing relationships with Canadian businesses, will be successful in growing our Canadian market share.

We periodically refine the criteria used to calculate and report our subscriber data. In the six months ended June 30, 2017, we determined that certain subscribers who receive our breach response services should no longer be included in the presentation of Identity Guard® subscribers or revenue due to the nonrecurring nature of our breach response services. For comparability, all periods presented have been recast to reflect this change in subscribers and revenue.
Personal Information Services Operating Expenses
Marketing Expenses. In the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, our marketing expenses resulted primarily from marketing activity for direct-to-consumer and Canadian subscriber acquisitions, which decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016. Amortization of deferred subscription solicitation costs related to marketing of our products for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $5.7 million and $6.6 million, respectively. Marketing costs that do not meet the criteria for capitalization and are expensed as incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $948 thousand and $427 thousand, respectively. We continue to expect our limited direct-to-consumer marketing spend to focus on our historically most productive channels or programs, which may result in less marketing costs, reduced subscriber acquisitions and revenue.
As a percentage of revenue, marketing expenses increased slightly to 8.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 8.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Commission Expenses. The decrease is related to a decrease in overall subscribers for which commissions are paid, which is largely from our financial institution subscriber base. We expect our commission expenses to continue to decline in future quarters primarily due to normal attrition of subscribers in client portfolios with no new marketing activity.
As a percentage of revenue, commission expenses decreased to 23.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 24.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue continues to be favorably impacted by lower volumes of data fulfillment and service costs for subscribers. The decrease was partially offset by an estimated liability for non-income business taxes of $844 thousand. For additional information, please see "Liquidity and Capital Resources — Other" below.

39



As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 34.1% for six months ended June 30, 2017 from 32.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
General and Administrative Expenses. Beginning in January 2017, we changed our overhead allocation measurement as a result of decisions to exit the Pet Health Monitoring and Bail Bonds Industry Solutions businesses, which resulted in an increase of at least $4.4 million (or at least 5.7% of revenue) in general and administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year quarter, including share based compensation expense of $1.3 million. The increase in general and administrative expenses was also due to increased payroll-related expenses due to severance charges of approximately $1.5 million (or 2.0% of revenue), $1.0 million of executive management bonuses approved by the Compensation Committee in the three months ended June 30, 2017, of which $800 thousand (or 1.0% of revenue) was charged to this segment, and increased headcount in our sales department and partner sales channel. As a result of the change in corporate overhead allocation, we expect unfavorable variances compared to the prior year quarters in general and administrative expenses for the remainder of 2017. For additional information, please see "—Corporate" below.
As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses increased significantly to 36.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 22.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Depreciation. The increase is due to internally developed capitalized software related to the development of Identity Guard® with Watson, the majority of which was placed into service in late 2016.
As a percentage of revenue, depreciation increased to 3.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 2.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Goodwill. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we did not identify any triggering events related to our goodwill and therefore were not required to test our goodwill for impairment. To the extent our Personal Information Services reporting unit realizes unfavorable actual results compared to forecasted results, or decreases forecasted results compared to previous forecasts, or in the event the estimated fair value of the reporting unit decreases, we may incur additional impairment charges in the future. Future impairment charges in this reporting unit will be recognized in the operating results of our Personal Information Services segment and our Insurance and Other Consumer Service segment, based on a pro-rata allocation.
Insurance and Other Consumer Services Segment
Income from operations for this segment for six months ended June 30, 2017, compared to loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016, is primarily due to decreased general and administrative and commission expenses, partially offset by decreased revenue.

Revenue. The decrease in revenue continues to be due to the attrition in our existing subscriber base as well as portfolio cancellations, which consists of purchasers of both insurance and membership services that have recurring subscription benefits, and minimal new subscription sales due to substantially ceased marketing efforts by most of our clients for these products. We had approximately 44 thousand subscribers as of June 30, 2017, which is a 27% decrease from our subscriber base of 60 thousand subscribers as of June 30, 2016.
Commission Expenses. The decrease is related to a decrease in overall subscribers for which commissions are paid. We expect our commission expenses to continue to decline in future periods primarily due to normal attrition of subscribers in our existing portfolios with no new marketing activity.
As a percentage of revenue, commission expenses increased to 39.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 32.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

40



Cost of Revenue. The decrease is primarily due to decreased payroll-related costs from a reduction in headcount in our customer services function.
As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue increased to 9.4% for six months ended June 30, 2017 from 5.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
General and Administrative Expenses. The significant decrease is primarily due to decreased payroll-related costs as a result of the change in our policy of allocating general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments. For additional information, please see "—Corporate" below.
As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased significantly to 23.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from 68.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Goodwill. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we did not identify any triggering events related to our goodwill and therefore were not required to test our goodwill for impairment. To the extent our Insurance and Other Consumer Services reporting unit realizes unfavorable actual results compared to forecasted results, or decreases forecasted results compared to previous forecasts, or in the event the estimated fair value of the reporting unit decreases, we may incur additional impairment charges in the future.

In 2016, in connection with our strategy to focus on identity and privacy protection services, we initiated a plan to divest the business. Effective January 31, 2017, we divested our ownership in Captira, which marked the conclusion of our operations in our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions segment. This segment’s operating results have not had a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial results and are not classified as a discontinued operation.

41



Corporate
In the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, our loss from operations of $2.5 million and $5.7 million, respectively, primarily consisted of general and administrative expenses. In conjunction with our singular refocus on our identity and privacy protection services, we changed our policy of allocating general and administrative expenses from our Corporate business unit into our other segments, which resulted in a change in our measurement of segment profit and loss. Beginning in 2017, we directly charge our Personal Information Services segment for the majority of general and administrative expenses including executive, legal, human resources, finance and internal audit expenses. General and administrative expenses in our Corporate business unit primarily consist of payroll, share based compensation and other expenses related to our Chairman and non-employee Board of Directors. As a result, general and administrative expenses decreased by $3.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016, of which approximately $2.1 million was the effect of the change in measurement of segment profit and loss, and we expect that decrease to continue for the remainder of 2017.
Total share based compensation expense in our Corporate business unit for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $603 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017 from $840 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease is primarily related to the refinancing of our debt, which has a lower interest rate compared to the Prior Credit Agreement. Interest expense increased to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 from $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase is primarily due to increased interest expense on the potential underpayment of non-income business taxes, as well as interest expense related to our debt liability for the six months ended June 30, 2017, as the Prior Credit Agreement was not funded until March 2016. As a result of the outstanding debt under the New Credit Agreement, we expect to continue to incur significant interest expense until maturity. For additional information, please see Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income was $103 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to other (expense) of $(94) thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2016. Other income was $137 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to other (expense) of $(181) thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increases in other income are primarily due to unrealized foreign exchange gains.
Income Taxes
Our consolidated effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 0.3% and zero, respectively. Our consolidated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was 0.3% and (0.1)%, respectively. The rates remained relatively flat due to the continued valuation allowance.
We continued to evaluate all significant available positive and negative evidence including, but not limited to, our three-year cumulative loss, as adjusted for permanent items; insufficient sources of taxable income in prior carryback periods in order to utilize all of the existing definite-lived net deferred tax assets; unavailability of prudent and feasible tax-planning strategies; negative adjustments to our projected taxable income; and scheduling of the future reversals of existing temporary differences. As a result, we were not able to recognize a net tax benefit associated with our pre-tax loss in the six months ended June 30, 2017, as there has been no change to the conclusion from the year ended December 31, 2016 that it was more likely than not that we would not generate sufficient taxable income in the foreseeable future to realize our net deferred tax assets.
The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable as of June 30, 2017 could be adjusted if facts and circumstances in future reporting periods change, including, but not limited to, generating sufficient future taxable income in the carryforward periods. If certain substantial changes in the entity’s ownership were to occur, there would be an annual limitation on the amount of the carryforwards that can be utilized in the future. The remaining deferred tax liability as of June 30, 2017 relates to an indefinite-lived intangible.
There were no material changes to our uncertain tax positions during the three or six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2017 were $9.5 million compared to $10.9 million as of December 31, 2016. Our cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments and may include short-term U.S. Treasury securities with original maturity dates of less than or equal to 90 days.

42



Our accounts receivable balance as of June 30, 2017 was $7.2 million compared to $8.0 million as of December 31, 2016. The likelihood of non-payment has historically been remote with respect to our Identity Guard®, financial institution and insurance services clients billed, however, we do provide for an allowance for doubtful accounts with respect to breach response services. In addition, we provide for a refund allowance, which is included in liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, against transactions that may be refunded in subsequent months. This allowance is based on historical results.
As a result of lower cash and cash equivalents, we had a working capital surplus of $1.7 million as of June 30, 2017 compared to $2.2 million as of December 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily due to the loss from operations in the six months ended June 30, 2017. Our short-term and long-term liquidity depends primarily upon our level of income from operations, cash balances, working capital management and the amount of wind down costs associated with the planned exit of certain of our businesses.
Pursuant to the Prior Credit Agreement, we were required to maintain at all times minimum cash on hand, as defined in the Prior Credit Agreement, of at least 25% of the total amount outstanding under the term loan until June 30, 2017 and 40% of the total amount outstanding under the term loan thereafter. The New Credit Agreement (as described below) requires us to maintain at all times a minimum cash on hand amount, as defined in the New Credit Agreement, of at least 20% of the total amount outstanding under the term loan.
We believe that the cash and cash equivalents on hand and anticipated cash provided by operations will be sufficient to fund our anticipated working capital requirements of those business segments for the next twelve months. If there is a material change in our anticipated cash provided by operations or working capital needs at a time when we are not in compliance with all of the covenants in the New Credit Agreement or otherwise do not have access to other sources of capital, our liquidity could be negatively affected.
We may explore additional financing sources to fund expansion, to respond to competitive pressures, to invest in or acquire complementary products, businesses or technologies, or to lower our cost of capital, which could include equity and debt financings. There can be no guarantee that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity or equity-like securities, existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and if we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities or other borrowings, these securities or borrowings could have rights senior to common stock, could result in increased interest expense and other costs, and could contain additional covenants that could restrict operations.

The decrease in cash flows used in operations is primarily due to significant decreases in operating expenses for our Pet Health Monitoring segment as a result of the cessation of the primary operations in the fourth quarter of 2016, as well as a decrease in our accounts receivable due to more timely payments in 2017, partially offset by decreases in revenue from reduced subscribers from the comparable period and increased payments for severance and payroll-related costs. Additionally, cash used in operations was negatively affected by the use of approximately $1.9 million to fund the wind-down of the Voyce business and the efforts to monetize its intellectual property.
In the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Compensation Committee approved executive management bonuses of $1.0 million, which will be paid over the remainder of 2017. Additionally, we recorded a $995 thousand liability related to an ongoing audit by a state for non-income business taxes. We continue to correspond with the applicable authorities in an effort toward resolution of our potential indirect tax obligations in the remainder of 2017. For additional information, please see "—Other" below. Payment of these liabilities may decrease our cash from operations for the next twelve months. We continue our efforts to resolve a federal income tax refund claim in 2017, which, if successful, would increase our cash from operations.
The slight decrease in cash flows used in investing activities is primarily due to a decrease in restricted cash balances for cash collateral to a commercial bank for corporate credit cards, partially offset by payments related to the sale of Captira. For additional information, please see Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements. We continue to fund the acquisition of property and equipment, which includes the internally developed capitalized software, as we add innovative new services and tools to our Identity Guard® portfolio.

43



The decrease in cash flows provided by financing activities is due to proceeds of $20.0 million from the closing of the Prior Credit Agreement in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by proceeds received from the closing of the New Credit Agreement in the second quarter of 2017, described below.
Credit Facility and Borrowing Capacity
New Credit Agreement
On April 20, 2017, we refinanced our existing senior secured indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement with a new $20.0 million term loan facility (which was fully funded at closing) with PEAK6 Investments.
In order to consummate the refinancing, we and our subsidiaries entered into the New Credit Agreement with PEAK6 Investments as Term Lender and as Administrative Agent, and also entered into a security agreement, a pledge and security agreement, an intellectual property security agreement and other related documents. The New Credit Agreement extends the maturity date, reduces and defers mandatory quarterly principal payments, and carries a lower interest rate compared to the Prior Credit Agreement. The maturity date of the New Credit Agreement is April 20, 2021 with quarterly principal payments of $1.3 million commencing on September 30, 2019. The initial interest rate is 9.486% per annum, to be adjusted annually on March 31 to 7.75% plus 1 year LIBOR, and interest is payable monthly. The New Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all our assets and a pledge by us of stock and membership interests we hold in any domestic and first-tier foreign subsidiaries.
We used approximately $13.9 million of the net proceeds from the New Credit Agreement to repay in full the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay penalties, fees and expenses as a result of the termination. We expect to use the remainder of the proceeds from the New Credit Agreement for general corporate purposes, including to increase subscriber acquisitions and continue our innovative product development. As of June 30, 2017, $20.0 million was outstanding under the New Credit Agreement, which was presented net of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount totaling $871 thousand in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As of June 30, 2017, none of the outstanding balance was classified as short-term.
In order to consummate the divestiture of i4c (see Note 21), on July 31, 2017, we entered into the Amendment to the New Credit Agreement among us, the other credit parties party thereto, and PEAK6 Investments. The Amendment removes i4c as a party to the New Credit Agreement and amends the New Credit Agreement to permit the transactions entered into by us and our subsidiaries in connection with the divestiture of i4c.
The New Credit Agreement, as amended, also requires the prepayment of the aggregate principal amount outstanding in an amount equal to 25% of our excess cash flow (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) for each fiscal year commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018 and continuing thereafter. Certain other events defined in the New Credit Agreement require prepayment of the aggregate principal amount of the term loan, including all or a portion of proceeds received from asset dispositions (except for proceeds from the sale of assets in our i4c subsidiary, casualty events, extraordinary receipts, and certain equity issuances. Once amounts borrowed have been paid or prepaid, they may not be reborrowed.
The New Credit Agreement contains certain customary covenants, including among other things covenants that limit or restrict the following: the incurrence of liens; the making of investments including a prohibition of any capital contributions to our subsidiary i4c other than to complete the wind-down as noted above and fair and reasonable allocation of overhead and administrative expenses; the incurrence of certain indebtedness; mergers, dissolutions, liquidations, or consolidations; acquisitions (other than certain permitted acquisitions); sales of substantially all of our or any of our subsidiaries' assets, except for the orderly wind down of the Pet Health Monitoring, and the exits of our Bail Bonds Industry Solutions and Habits at Work businesses; the declaration of certain dividends or distributions; transactions with affiliates (other than parties to the New Credit Agreement) other than on fair and reasonable terms; and the formation or acquisition of any direct or indirect domestic or first-tier foreign subsidiary unless such subsidiary becomes a guarantor and enters into certain security documents.
The New Credit Agreement requires us to maintain at all times a minimum cash on hand amount, as defined in the New Credit Agreement, of at least 20% of the total amount outstanding under the term loan. We are also required to maintain compliance on a quarterly basis commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2017 with minimum consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the New Credit Agreement and adjusted for certain non-cash, non-recurring and other items, and up to $4.3 million of non-recurring charges incurred in the wind-down events) of $2.0 million; provided consolidated EBITDA from the immediately preceding quarter in excess of $2.0 million may be added to a current quarter to make up any shortfall and provided further that when we have not met the minimum consolidated EBITDA test for any quarter (even after including excess consolidated EBITDA for the prior quarter) the test for compliance is deferred until the end of the next quarter and we shall be deemed to be in compliance if, taking into account consolidated EBITDA in excess of $2.0 million from the prior quarter, consolidated EBITDA from the test quarter, and consolidated EBITDA in excess of $2.0 million from the subsequent quarter, we pass the minimum compliance test. Excess consolidated EBITDA in any quarter can be counted only once for determining compliance with this covenant. As of June 30, 2017, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

44



The New Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including among other things non-payment defaults, covenant defaults, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults, material judgment defaults, ERISA defaults, cross-defaults to other indebtedness, invalidity of loan documents defaults, change in control defaults, conduct of business defaults, and criminal and regulatory action defaults.

Warrant
In connection with the New Credit Agreement, PEAK6 Investments purchased, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million in cash, a warrant to purchase an aggregate of 1.5 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share ("Warrant"). The Warrant is immediately exercisable, has a five-year term and shall be exercised solely by a "net share settlement" feature that requires the holder to exercise the Warrant without a cash payment upon the terms set forth therein. The Warrant includes a feature to provide for increases in the number of shares issuable upon exercise in the event of a future change of control transaction (as defined therein), with the number of increased shares based upon the time elapsed from issuance of the Warrant and the difference between the exercise price of the Warrant and the transaction price in the change of control, all as more fully set forth in the Warrant. The Warrant also provides for adjustments in the underlying number of shares and exercise price in the event of recapitalizations, stock splits or dividends and other corporate events.
We reviewed the provisions of the warrant contract, and in accordance with U.S. GAAP classified the warrant as a financial equity instrument at its fair value of $2.1 million using the Monte Carlo pricing model. The difference between the fair value and stated value of the warrants resulted in a debt discount of $640 thousand, which is presented net of the long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. For additional information related to the fair value of the warrants, please see Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Stock Redemption
In connection with the New Credit Agreement, we used the proceeds from the sale of the Warrant to repurchase approximately 419 thousand shares of our common stock, pursuant to a redemption agreement from PEAK6 Capital Management LLC at a price of $3.60 per share, for an aggregate repurchase price of approximately $1.5 million. PEAK6 Capital Management LLC is an affiliate of PEAK6 Investments.
The repurchase was made pursuant to our previously announced share repurchase program. Following the repurchase, we have approximately $15.3 million remaining under our repurchase program. The repurchases may be made on the open market, in block trades, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. However, we are currently prohibited from repurchasing any shares of common stock under the New Credit Agreement.
Prior Credit Agreement
In March 2016, we and our subsidiaries entered into the Prior Credit Agreement with Crystal Financial SPV LLC. The Prior Credit Agreement provided for a $20.0 million term loan, which was fully funded at closing.
In connection with the entry into the New Credit Agreement described above, effective April 20, 2017, we and our applicable subsidiaries satisfied and discharged all obligations under, and terminated, the Prior Credit Agreement, except for obligations that pursuant to the express terms of the Prior Credit Agreement survive payment of the obligations. As of April 20, 2017, $13.4 million was outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement. As a result of the refinancing, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.5 million in the three and six months ending June 30, 2017, including interest, prepayment penalties, transaction fees and expenses totaling approximately $487 thousand as a result of the termination.
Share Repurchase
As of June 30, 2017, prior to the repurchase in connection with the New Credit Agreement, we had approximately $16.9 million remaining under our share repurchase program. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we repurchased 419 thousand shares of our common stock as described above. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we did not directly repurchase any shares of common stock for cash. As a result of shares withheld for tax purposes on the vesting of a restricted stock award, we increased our treasury shares by 33 thousand in the three months ended six months ended June 30, 2017.
Other
In April 2017, our Board of Directors approved a second amendment to the 2014 Plan to increase the number of shares authorized and reserved for issuance thereunder by 4.0 million shares, from 5.5 million shares to 9.5 million shares. The amendment was effective immediately upon our stockholders' approval in May 2017.

We are currently under audit by a state for non-income business taxes. The audit is ongoing and we have not received an assessment to date; however, we believe it is probable that the audit may result in either a negotiated settlement or a liability. We analyzed all the information available to us in order to estimate a liability for this audit as well as potential obligations in other jurisdictions including, but not limited to: the delivery nature of our services; the relationship through which our services are offered; the probability of obtaining resale or exemption certificates; limited, if any, nexus-creating activity; and our historical success in settling or abating liabilities under audit. As a result of this analysis, we recorded a liability of $995 thousand in the three months ended June 30, 2017 for the potential underpayment of taxes and interest, which was recorded primarily in cost of revenue in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We continue to correspond with the applicable authorities in an effort toward resolution of our potential liabilities using a variety of settlement options including, but not limited to, voluntary disclosures, negotiation and standard appeals process, and we may adjust the liability as a result of such correspondence. Additionally, we continue to analyze what other obligations, if any, we have to other state taxing authorities. Proceedings with jurisdictions are inherently unpredictable, but we believe it is reasonably possible that other states may approach us or that the scope of the taxable base in any state may also increase. However, we cannot reasonably estimate the potential amount of future payments due to the unique facts and circumstances involved.
In the six months ended June 30, 2017, we entered into contracts, pursuant to which we agreed to minimum, non-refundable installment payments totaling approximately $1.0 million, payable in monthly and yearly installments through June 30, 2020. These amounts are expensed on a pro-rata basis and are recorded in cost of revenue and general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. For additional information on other minimum, non-refundable contracts, please see Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2017, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its "disclosure controls and procedures" (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed, and are effective, to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
