The Company has an award-winning product portfolio that includes screen protection, power cases, power management, wireless charging, personal audio, mobile keyboards, and cases sold under the ZAGG®, InvisibleShield®, mophie®, and IFROGZ® brands.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The Company suggests that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

On March 3, 2016, the Company acquired mophie inc. ("mophie"). The results of operations of mophie are included in the Company's results of operations beginning on March 3, 2016. See Note 3 for additional details on the acquisition.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ZAGG Inc and its wholly owned subsidiaries ZAGG International Distribution Limited (“ZAGG International”); Patriot Corporation; ZAGG Intellectual Property Holding Co, Inc. (“ZAGG IP”); ZAGG Retail, Inc; ZAGG Netherlands B.V.; ZAGG Mobile Accessories Australia Pty Ltd; ZAGG Hong Kong Ltd; ZAGG Japan G.K.; ZAGG Singapore Pte. Ltd.; mophie inc.; mophie LLC; mophie Technology Development Co., Ltd; mophie Netherlands Coöperatie U.A.; and mophie Limited.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (amounts in thousands)

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” This ASU includes a five-step process by which entities will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also will require enhanced disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU may be adopted utilizing one of two methods. The first method is to adopt the ASU by recording the effect of the guidance in the ASU retrospectively to each prior period presented in the period of adoption. The second method is to adopt the ASU by recording the effect of the guidance in the ASU retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date of this ASU. This deferral was issued by the FASB in ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Deferral of the Effective Date”. As a result of ASU No. 2015-14 the Company expects that it will apply the new revenue standard to annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) – Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”. The amendments and practical expedients presented in the ASU aim to simplify the transition to the new standard, to provide practical expedients for transition and sales taxes, and to clarify certain aspects of the standard. The Company currently anticipates adopting the standard using the modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of adoption recorded at the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” This ASU provides guidance to entities that measure inventory using a method other than last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. For entities using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost, the measurement principle for their inventory changes from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. Current U.S. GAAP requires, at each financial statement date, that entities measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The measurement of market is commonly the current replacement cost. However, entities also need to consider net realizable value and net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin in their measurement. For entities using a method other than LIFO or the retail inventory method, the ASU replaces market with net realizable value. This ASU requires prospective adoption for inventory measurement for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, for public business entities. The Company has concluded that this ASU did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes,” which requires entities with a classified balance sheet to present all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The amendments in the ASU may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The ASU is effective for public business entities for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adopted the ASU using the retrospective approach resulting in recording deferred tax assets as non-current for current and prior periods presented. This adoption does not impact our results of operations.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires lessees to recognize most leases, including operating leases, on-balance sheet via a right of use asset and lease liability. Lessees are allowed to account for short-term leases (i.e., leases with a term of 12 months or less) off-balance sheet, consistent with current operating lease accounting. A number of other significant changes to lease accounting have been effected through the issuance of this standard. The requirements of the new standard for leases shall be recognized and measured at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. When adopted, the Company will be required to adjust equity at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, and the other comparative amounts disclosed for each prior period presented in the financial statements, as if the requirements of the new standard had always been applied. The new standard also contains practical expedients which the Company may elect to follow. The new standard is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements, including whether to elect the practical expedients outlined in the new standard.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which simplified accounting for share-based payments. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years for public business entities. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period provided that the entire ASU is adopted. The new standard contains several amendments that simplify the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The changes in the new standard eliminate the accounting for excess tax benefits to be recognized in additional paid-in capital and tax deficiencies recognized either in the income tax provision or in additional paid-in capital. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-09 as of the beginning of the quarter ended March 31, 2017. During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company applied the amendment relating to the recognition of excess tax benefits and deficiencies on a prospective basis and, accordingly, has recognized all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit as discrete items resulting in the recognition of income tax expense of $171 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The Company has not recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year because all tax benefits had previously been recognized when the tax deductions related to stock compensation were utilized to reduce taxes payable. The Company has elected to apply the amendment related to the presentation of cash flows for excess tax benefits on a prospective basis and no prior periods have been adjusted. The Company’s financial position or results of operations were not impacted by amendments related to the statutory tax withholding requirement and, accordingly, no adjustment has been recorded. The Company will continue to classify cash remitted to the tax authorities as a financing activity as now required by the amendments in the ASU. The ASU permits a policy election to either record forfeitures as they occur or estimate forfeitures consistent with historical U.S. GAAP. The Company has elected to record forfeitures as they occur, which did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which addresses eight classification issues related to the statement of cash flows: (1) debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; (2) settlement of zero-coupon bonds; (3) contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; (4) proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; (5) proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; (6) distributions received from equity method investees; (7) beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and (8) separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The amendments in the ASU should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable for the amendments to be applied retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues may be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard in the current quarter ended September 30, 2017, and will apply this standard to any classification issues that occur in future periods as none exist in the current reportable period.

 

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory,” which requires entities to recognize at the transaction date the income tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers other than inventory. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash,” which requires companies to include cash and cash equivalents that have restrictions on withdrawal or use in total cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard in the current quarter ended September 30, 2017, and if in future periods restricted cash exists at the Company, this standard will be applied as none exist in the current reportable period.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,” which requires an entity to no longer perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. Instead, impairment will be measured using the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the reporting unit. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. All entities may early adopt the standard for goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates after January 1, 2017. The Company has elected to early adopt this standard and will perform its annual goodwill impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of 2017. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact to our financial position or results of operations.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718),” which clarifies what constitutes a modification of a share-based payment award. This ASU is effective for all entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual period for which financial statements (interim or annual) have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company has elected to early adopt this ASU in the current quarter ended September 30, 2017, and will apply any stock compensation modifications that occur in future periods as none exist in the current reportable period.

 

(2) INVENTORIES

(3)ACQUISITION OF MOPHIE

 

On February 2, 2016, ZAGG and ZM Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with mophie, a California corporation, the principal shareholders of mophie named therein (the “Principal Shareholders”), and Daniel Huang as representative of the mophie shareholders, warrant holders, and option holders, pursuant to which ZM Acquisition, Inc. agreed to merge with and into mophie, with mophie continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). On March 3, 2016, the Company completed the Merger.

 

Results of Operations

 

The results of operations of mophie are included in the Company’s results of operations beginning on March 3, 2016. For the period of March 3, 2016, through September 30, 2016, mophie generated net sales of $79,390 and a net loss before tax of $17,030.

 

Pro forma Results from Operations

 

The following unaudited pro-forma results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, give pro forma effect as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, after giving effect to certain adjustments including the amortization of intangible assets, interest expense, tax adjustments, specific transaction related expenses incurred prior to the execution date, and assumes the purchase price was allocated to the assets purchased and liabilities assumed based on their values at the date of purchase.

 

  

Nine months ended

September 30, 2016

 
Net sales  $304,254 
Net loss  $(15,432)
Basic loss per share  $(0.55)
Diluted loss per share  $(0.55)

 

The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred had the transaction been consummated for the dates indicated. Furthermore, such unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of future operating results of the combined companies, due to changes in operating activities following the purchase, and should not be construed as representative of the operating results of the combined companies for any future dates or periods.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, pro forma net loss includes projected amortization expense of $5,076. In addition, the Company included interest from the new credit facility and amortization of debt issuance costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, of $1,508. Material non-recurring adjustments excluded from the pro forma financial information above consists of the $2,586 step up of mophie inventory to its fair value, which was recorded as an unfavorable adjustment to cost of goods sold during the nine months following the acquisition date.

 

The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect events that either have occurred or may occur after the Merger, including, but not limited to, the anticipated realization of ongoing savings from operating synergies in subsequent periods.

 

(4)GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Goodwill

 

There were no additions to nor impairment of goodwill for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2017. The balance of goodwill as of September 30, 2017, was $12,272.

 

Long-lived Intangible Assets

 

The following table summarizes the changes in gross long-lived intangible assets:

 

Gross balance at December 31, 2016  $108,659 
Impairment loss on patent   (2,777)
Gross balance at September 30, 2017  $105,882 

 

On April 11, 2017, the Company received a final court order stating that the claims of one of its patents were either unpatentable or cancelled. Accordingly, management determined that the patent’s carrying value was not recoverable through future cash flows and was impaired as of March 31, 2017. Consequently, for the nine months period ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded an impairment loss consisting of a reduction of gross carrying amount of $2,777, accumulated amortization of $818, and net carrying value of $1,959 to reduce the net carrying value of the cancelled patent to $0.

 

Long-lived intangible assets, net of amortization as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were as follows:

 

   September 30,
2017
  

December 31,

2016

 
         
Customer relationships  $10,597   $14,612 
Tradenames   18,767    21,506 
Patents and technology   11,680    15,727 
Non-compete agreements   1,227    1,497 
Other   15    20 
Total amortizable intangible assets  $42,286   $53,362 

 

The total weighted average useful lives of amortizable intangible assets as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, is 8.2 years.

(5)INCOME TAXES

 

For interim periods, the tax provision is determined utilizing an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was 37% and 47%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was 47% and 41%, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016, was primarily due to losses from foreign jurisdictions for which income tax benefits were not recognized as well the ratio of credits and other permanent differences to pre-tax book income and loss for respective periods. The change in the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016, was primarily due to various discrete expenses recognized during the period related to the true up of a deferred amount for stock compensation and other discrete items related to the return to provision calculation. The Company’s effective tax rate will generally differ from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35%, due to state taxes, permanent items, and the Company’s global tax strategy.

 

(6)FAIR VALUE MEASURES

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, a line of credit, and a term loan. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying value of the debt balances approximate fair value because the variable interest rates reflect current market rates.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company measures at fair value certain financial and non-financial assets by using a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, essentially an exit price, based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

 

Level 1 — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 — Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs); and

 

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

 

At September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the following assets were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the level of inputs shown:

(7)DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT

 

Long-term debt, net as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, was as follows:

 

   September 30,
2017
   December 31,
2016
 
Line of credit  $16,264   $31,307 
Term loan   15,468    20,107

Less current portion   22,449    41,791 
Total long-term debt outstanding  $9,283   $9,623 

 

On July 17, 2017, ZAGG Inc, KeyBank National Association (“KeyBank”), Zions First National Bank (“Zions Bank”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (collectively, the “Lenders”), and KeyBank, as the administrative agent for the Lenders, entered into a Third Amendment Agreement (“Amendment”), which amends the original Credit and Security Agreement dated as of March 3, 2016, by and among the Company and the Lenders. The Amendment includes the following revisions to the original Credit Agreement:

 

Increased the Maximum Revolving Amount, as defined in the Credit Agreement, from $85,000 to:
$135,000 from July 17, 2017, to December 31, 2017;
$110,000 from January 1, 2018, to May 31, 2018; and
$100,000 from June 1, 2018, forward.
Expanded Permitted Foreign Subsidiary Loans, Guaranties and Investments, as defined in the Credit Agreement, to include:
A $2,000 loan dated April 5, 2017, from the Company to ZAGG International Distribution Limited; and
Any other loan or investment by the Company or any domestic subsidiary of the Company in or to, or guaranty of indebtedness of, any foreign subsidiary of the Company for the period July 17, 2017, to March 31, 2018, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $8,000.
Increased the Letter of Credit Commitment, as defined in the Credit Agreement, from $7,500 to an aggregate amount of $40,000.
Increased the Borrowing Base, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on a seasonal basis between August 1, 2017, and September 30, 2017, by $15,000, which seasonal increase to the Borrowing Base was subsequently extended by the Lenders to October 31, 2017.

 

In connection with the Amendment, the Company also entered into replacement revolving credit notes with each of the Lenders. As consideration for entering into the Amendment, the Company agreed to pay the administrative agent and Lenders total amendment and arrangement fees of $145, pursuant to the terms of an administrative agent fee letter and a closing fee letter entered into with KeyBank. The changes to the Credit Agreement described above were made to support core-business opportunities.

 

Effective September 4, 2017, the Company directed KeyBank to establish an irrevocable standby letter of credit (“Letter of Credit”) to support purchases of inventory from a key supplier. The Credit Agreement requires that the face value of the Letter of Credit reduce the Borrowing Base under the existing Line of Credit.

 

From September 4, 2017, through September 17, 2017, the face value amount of the Letter of Credit was $10,000. From September 18, 2017, through February 28, 2018 (the end of the contractual period), the face value was increased to $25,000. The Company agreed to pay interest at an annual rate of 1.625% calculated on the face value amount and paid quarterly, which interest is classified in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Fees incurred associated with the Letter of Credit as of September 30, 2017, are $157. No draws on the Letter of Credit occurred as of September 30, 2017.

  

(8)STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company granted 45 and 479 restricted stock units, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company granted 163 and 876 restricted stock units, respectively. The restricted stock units granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, were estimated to have a weighted-average fair value per share of $8.65 and $6.77, respectively. The restricted stock units granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, were estimated to have a weighted-average fair value per share of $6.41 and $8.17, respectively. The fair value of the restricted stock units granted is based on the closing share price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock units vest annually on a straight-line basis over a nine-month (annual board of directors’ grant) to three-year vesting term, depending on the terms of the individual grant.

 

 12 

 

 

As part of the 479 and 876 grants discussed above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, the Company granted 372 and 575 restricted stock units, respectively, to certain executives and employees of the Company where vesting is linked to specific performance criterion. The restricted stock units granted in 2017 and 2016 only vest upon the Company’s achievement of specified thresholds of net sales, Adjusted EBITDA, or specific goals for the individual executive. As of September 30, 2017, the Company believes it is probable that it will achieve the targets for all restricted stock units granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Of the 575 restricted stock units granted in the nine months ending September 30, 2016, 42 shares vested and 307 shares were forfeited, and 226 have not yet vested or been forfeited.

 

The estimated fair value of the restricted stock units is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term of the award. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units of $899 and $2,536, respectively, which is included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expense. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units of $1,384 and $3,675, respectively, which is included as a component of selling, general, and administrative expense.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, certain ZAGG employees elected to receive a net amount of shares upon the vesting of restricted stock unit grants in exchange for the Company paying up to the maximum statutory withholding amount of the employees’ tax liabilities for the fair value of the award on the vesting date. This resulted in the Company paying $240 and $621, respectively, which is reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. We also recognized an increase of additional paid-in capital related to the employee stock purchase plan of $29 and $54, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016.

 

(9)EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings (loss) per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and restricted stock, or other common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into common stock. The dilutive effect of stock options or other common stock equivalents is calculated using the treasury stock method.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used to calculate basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016:

 

   Three months ended 
   September 30, 2017   September 30, 2016 
Net income (loss)  $9,776   $(7,105)
Weighted average shares outstanding:          
Basic   27,969    28,125 
Dilutive effect of restricted stock units and warrants   412     
Diluted   28,381    28,125 
Earnings (loss) per share:          
Basic  $0.35   $(0.25)
Diluted  $0.34   $(0.25)

 

   Nine months ended 
   September 30, 2017   September 30, 2016 
Net income (loss)  $7,041   $(11,442)
Weighted average shares outstanding:          
Basic   27,996    27,987 
Dilutive effect of restricted stock units and warrants   233     
Diluted   28,229    27,987 
Earnings (loss) per share:          
Basic  $0.25   $(0.41)
Diluted  $0.25   $(0.41)

 

 13 

 

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, there were no restricted stock units excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, 1,001 restricted stock units and 50 warrants to purchase shares of common stock were not considered in calculating diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

(10)TREASURY STOCK

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company purchased 0 and 234 shares of ZAGG Inc common stock, respectively. Cash consideration paid for the purchase of ZAGG Inc common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, was $1,492, which included commissions paid to brokers of $9. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the weighted average price per share was $6.32. The consideration paid has been recorded within stockholders’ equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, no purchases of treasury stock occurred.

 

(11) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Operating leases

 

The Company leases office and warehouse space, office equipment, and mall cart locations under operating leases that expire through 2023. Future minimum rental payments required under the operating leases at September 30, 2017, were as follows:

 

Remaining 2017  $722 
2018   2,058 
2019   1,588 
2020   1,532 
2021   1,458 
Thereafter   2,596 
Total  $9,954 

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, rent expense was $736 and $793, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, rent expense was $2,179 and $2,450, respectively. Rent expense was recognized on a basis which approximates straight-line over the lease term and was recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Commercial Litigation

 

Daniel Huang, individually and as shareholder representative v. ZAGG Inc, Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, C.A. No. 12842 (the “Huang Delaware Lawsuit”). On October 21, 2016, Daniel Huang, as the representative of the former mophie inc. shareholders, under the Merger Agreement as disclosed in Note 3, filed the Huang Delaware Lawsuit alleging that the Company breached the Merger Agreement by failing to pay certain contingent payments (the “Contingent Payments”) related to tax refunds and customs duty recoveries and seeking damages in an amount no less than $11,420. On December 16, 2016, the Company filed an Answer and Counterclaims in the lawsuit. In its Answer, the Company acknowledged its obligation under the Merger Agreement to make the Contingent Payments under certain circumstances, but averred that this obligation was subject to a right to withhold the tax refunds and customs duty recoveries received to date and, subject to the Court’s ruling on the Company’s Counterclaims, subsequently set-off its damages against the Contingent Payments. In its Answer, the Company denied that any payments were due at that time or that it was in breach of any provision of the Merger Agreement. Regarding the Counterclaims, after the closing of the merger, ZAGG discovered breaches of certain representations, warranties and covenants made by Huang and mophie that have resulted in damages exceeding $22,000.

 

On October 31, 2017, the Company and Daniel Huang as the representative of the former mophie inc. shareholders, entered into a settlement agreement (“Delaware Settlement Agreement”). The Delaware Settlement Agreement provides for a mutual general release of all claims asserted in Huang Delaware Lawsuit and that (1) the Company will receive the $2,000 in cash held in escrow in connection with the Merger Agreement, (2) the former mophie shareholders will receive $8,000 of the Contingent Payments in full settlement (“Settlement Amount”) of all claims asserted against the Company in the Huang Delaware Lawsuit, and (3) the Company will retain the remaining Contingent Payments. The difference between the Contingent Payments recorded in purchase accounting and Settlement Amount will be recorded as a gain on disputed mophie purchase price during the fourth quarter of 2017:

 

Contingent payments recorded in purchase accounting  $12,139 
Cash collected from duty recoveries  $2,828 
Total contingent payments in accrued liabilities  $14,967 
Settlement amount  $8,000 
Gain on disputed mophie purchase price  $6,967

ZAGG Inc et al. v. Daniel Huang et al., Orange County Superior Court, State of California, Civil No. 30-2016-00892767-CU-BC-CJC (the “Huang California Lawsuit”). On December 15, 2016, ZAGG and mophie filed a complaint against Daniel Huang and Immotor, LLC (“Immotor”). The complaint alleged that Huang and the company he founded, Immotor, misappropriated confidential information belonging to mophie while Huang was serving as an officer and director of mophie.

 

On October 31, 2017, the Company, mophie, Immotor and Daniel Huang entered into a settlement agreement (“California Settlement Agreement”). The California Settlement Agreement provides for a mutual general release of all claims asserted in the Huang California Lawsuit and of other claims asserted by Huang against the Company and mophie and that Huang would receive a non-exclusive license for certain power management technology for use solely in connection with two-wheeled vehicles.

 

The Company continues to retain rights under a representations and warranties insurance policy obtained at the time of the acquisition of mophie to seek reimbursement for payments of third party claims or to recover losses relating to breaches of mophie’s representations and warranties, except in respect of the claims released in connection the dismissal of the Huang Delaware Lawsuit and the Huang California Lawsuit.

 

Eric Stotz and Alan Charles v. mophie inc., U.S. District Court, Central District of California, Civil Action No. 2:16-cv-08898-GW-FFM. On January 13, 2017, Eric Stotz and Alan Charles, individually and on behalf of a purported class, filed a first amended class action complaint alleging that they purchased certain mophie external battery packs and that the battery packs did not extend the life of the phones’ internal batteries as advertised and adversely affected the phones’ internal battery life. Plaintiffs allege violations of California’s unfair competition law, California’s Consumer Legal Remedies Act, New York’s unlawful deceptive acts and practices statute, and New York’s false advertising law. The Company has denied all liability and will defend the claims and otherwise respond to the allegations. This matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. 

 

SEC Investigation

 

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company received requests to provide documentation and information to the staff of the SEC in connection with an investigation being conducted by the SEC’s Salt Lake City office. The Company believes the investigation includes a review of the facts and circumstances surrounding former Chief Executive Officer Robert Pedersen’s pledge and subsequent sale of Company shares and the fact that such pledges and sales were not disclosed in the Company’s 2011 10-K filed on March 15, 2012, or 2012 Proxy filed on April 27, 2012. The Company responded to these requests and is cooperating with the staff although there has been no resolution to date.

 

Other Litigation

 

The Company is not a party to any other material litigation or claims at this time. While the Company currently believes that the amount of any ultimate probable loss for known matters would not be material to the Company’s financial condition, the outcome of these actions is inherently difficult to predict. In the event of an adverse outcome for any of the litigation or claims noted above, the ultimate potential loss could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations in a particular period.

 

The Company establishes reserves when a particular contingency is probable and estimable. The Company has not accrued for any loss at September 30, 2017, in the condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company does not consider a loss to be probable or estimable. The Company faces contingencies that are reasonably possible to occur; however, the reasonably possible exposure to losses cannot currently be estimated.

(12) CONCENTRATIONS

 

Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in cash accounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.

 

At September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the balance of accounts receivable from two separate customers exceeded 10%: Superior Communications, Inc. (“Superior”) and Best Buy Co., Inc. (“Best Buy”). GENCO Distribution Systems, Inc. (“GENCO”) also exceeded 10% of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2016, but not as of September 30, 2017.

 

   September 30, 2017   December 31, 2016 
Superior   39%   32%
Best Buy   16%   22%
GENCO   7%   10%

 

No other customer account balances were more than 10% of accounts receivable at September 30, 2017, or December 31, 2016. If one or more of the Company’s significant customers were to become insolvent or were otherwise unable to pay for the products provided, it would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

 

Concentration of suppliers

 

We do not directly manufacture any of our products; rather, we employ various third-party manufacturing partners in the United States and Asia to perform these services on our behalf. The services employed by these third parties include the selection of sub-suppliers that provide raw materials and other components used in the manufacturing process. We have endeavored to use common components and readily available raw materials in the design of our products that can be sourced from multiple sub-suppliers. However, raw film used in our InvisibleShield film and InvisibleShield On-Demand (“ISOD”) products has been produced by a single supplier for the last nine years. Our film supplier has contractually agreed to not sell the raw materials to any of our competitors.

 

Below is a high-level summary by product category of the manufacturing sources used by the Company:

 

Screen Protection – Our screen product line consists of InvisibleShield glass products, InvisibleShield film products, and ISOD film blanks.

Three months ended

September 30, 2017

   Three months ended September 30, 2016 
Superior   32%   30%
Best Buy   12%   10%

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, no other customers accounted for greater than 10% of net sales.

 

Although we have contracts in place governing our relationships with customers, the contracts are not long-term and all our retailers generally purchase from us on a purchase order basis. As a result, these retailers generally may, with little or no notice or penalty, cease ordering and selling our products, or materially reduce their orders. If any of these retailers cease selling our products, slow their rate of purchase of our products, or decrease the number of products they purchase, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

The percentage of net sales by geographic region for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

  

Three months ended

September 30, 2017

   Three months ended September 30, 2016

(13) SEGMENT REPORTING

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company reported financial information on the following reportable segments: ZAGG and mophie. During the third quarter of 2017, management completed the consolidation of a number of ZAGG/mophie processes and functions, including the merging of the mophie enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system into ZAGG’s ERP system. In addition, the executive team and related responsibilities were re-aligned such that global functional teams are directly managed by an executive from the corporate headquarters. These merged functional areas include the following: sales, marketing, product management, product development, operations, customer service, accounting, finance, legal, human resources, and IT.

 

In addition, as the Company has continued to evolve as a mobile lifestyle company, the information regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker is at the consolidated level, including sales and budget reviews.

 

Due to the changes described above, management reassessed its reportable segments during the third quarter of 2017, and concluded that the Company is a single reportable segment.

 

(14)SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Certain settlements around litigation occurred subsequent to September 30, 2017, involving the Huang Delaware Lawsuit and the Huang California Lawsuit. Refer to Note 11 above for information regarding these settlements.

Results of Operations

 

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017, AND 2016 (amounts in thousands, except per share data)

 

Net sales

 

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017, were $134,398 compared to net sales of $124,662 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $9,736, or approximately 8%. The increase in net sales comparing the three months ended September 30, 2017, to 2016 was primarily attributable to (1) increased sales of screen protection products in key wireless and retail accounts, particularly in international markets, and (2) the launch of the mophie wireless charging pad. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company launched a new line of power station products and loaded-in a significant amount of product to retail, however, there was no similar power station launch in the third quarter of 2017, resulting in a decline in overall power management sales.

 

The percentage of net sales related to our key product lines for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

   2017   2016 
Screen Protection   57%   52%
Power Management   19%   22%
Power Cases   12%   12%
Audio   6%   6%
Keyboards   5%   6%
Other   1%   2%

 

The percentage of net sales related to our key distribution channels for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

  

2017

Mall cart and kiosk program   3%   3%

 

The percentage of net sales by geographic region for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

   2017   2016 
United States   85%   87%
Europe   9%   8%
Other   6%   5%

Gross profit

 

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2017, was $48,392, or approximately 36% of net sales, as compared to $43,146, or approximately 35% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Typically, the Company experiences higher gross profit margin in periods when the mix of screen protection products increases. The mix of screen protection products increased during the three months ended September 30, 2017, to approximately 57% of net sales compared to approximately 52% of net sales during the three months ended September 30, 2016, benefiting overall gross profit margin.

 

Operating expenses

 

Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017, were $32,457, a decrease of $23,399, or approximately 42%, from total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016, of $55,856. The $23,399 decrease was primarily attributable to (1) a $24,317 loss on disputed mophie purchase price in 2016 that did not recur in 2017, and (2) a reduction in advertising and marketing spend. These reductions in operating expense were partially offset by an increase in selling, general and administrative expense of $1,113 and amortization expense of $616.

 

Income (loss) from operations

 

We reported income from operations of $15,935 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a loss from operations of ($12,710) for the three months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $28,645. The increase in income was primarily attributable to the increases in net sales, improvements in gross profit margin, and the reduction of operating expenses primarily due to a $24,317 loss on disputed mophie purchase price in 2016.

 

Other expense, net

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2017, other expense was $399 compared to other expense of $656 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Income taxes

 

We recognized income tax expense of $5,760 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to an income tax benefit of $6,261 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Our effective tax rate was 37% and 47% for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due to income in lower rate foreign jurisdictions in which the Company experienced losses in the prior year for which benefits were not recognized as well the ratio of credits and other permanent differences to pre-tax book income. The Company’s effective tax rate will generally differ from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35%, due to state taxes, permanent items, and the Company’s global tax strategy.

 

Net income (loss)

 

As a result of the factors noted above, we reported net income of $9,776, or $0.34 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a net loss of ($7,105), or ($0.25) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

 

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017, AND 2016 (amounts in thousands, except per share data)

 

Net sales

 

Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, were $342,571 compared to net sales of $286,928 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $55,643, or approximately 19%. The increase in net sales comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2017, to 2016 was primarily attributable to (1) increased sales of screen protection for new device releases during the current year, and (2) higher sales of power management and power case products. Results for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, also include nine months of mophie sales compared to only seven months in 2016 as the acquisition occurred on March 3, 2016.

 

 22 

 

 

The percentage of net sales related to our key product lines for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

   2017   2016 
Screen Protection   52%   53%
Power Cases   18%   15%
Power Management   18%   15%
Keyboards   6%   9%
Audio   6%   7%
Other   0%   1%

 

The percentage of net sales related to our key distribution channels for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

   2017   2016 
Indirect channel   89%   88%
Website   8%   8%
Mall cart and kiosk program   3%   4%

 

The percentage of net sales by geographic region for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, was approximately:

 

   2017   2016 
United States   86%   89%
Europe   8%   7%
Other   6%   4%

 

Gross profit

 

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, was $112,822, or approximately 33% of net sales, as compared to $97,748, or approximately 34% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in the gross profit margin percentage was primarily attributable to (1) a full nine months of mophie operations in 2017, compared to only seven months of mophie operations in 2016, which are at lower gross profit margins than the corporate average, and (2) lower gross profit margin on curved glass for the Samsung Galaxy S8, compared to historical gross margins on non-curved glass products. These items were partially offset by amortization expense from the acquisition-related fair value inventory write-up in 2016, which did not recur in 2017.

 

Operating expenses

 

Total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, were $98,040, a decrease of $17,474, or approximately 15%, from total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, of $115,514. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily attributable to (1) a $24,317 loss on disputed mophie purchase price in 2016 that did not recur in 2017, (2) synergies realized from cost reduction initiatives, (3) a reduction in transaction-related costs, (4) a reduction in advertising and marketing spend, and (5) an overall reduction in amortization expense. These decreases were partially offset by the following increases in operating expense: (1) the inclusion of nine months of mophie-related expenses for 2017 compared with seven months in 2016 and (2) the impairment of an intangible asset in 2017 related to an invalidated patent totaling $1,959.

 

Income (loss) from operations

 

We reported income from operations of $14,782 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a loss from operations of ($17,766) for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of $32,548. The increase in income from operations was primarily attributable to increases in net sales and gross profit, and a decrease in operating expenses primarily due to a $24,317 loss on disputed mophie purchase price in 2016.

 

 23 

 

 

Other expense, net

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, other expense was $1,460 compared to other expense of $1,639 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Income taxes

 

We recognized income tax expense of $6,281 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to an income tax benefit of $7,963 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our effective tax rate was 47% and 41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to various discrete expenses recognized during the period related to the true up of a deferred amount for stock compensation and other discrete items related to the return to provision calculation. The Company’s effective tax rate will generally differ from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 35%, due to state taxes, permanent items, and the Company’s global tax strategy.

 

Net income (loss)

 

As a result of the factors noted above, we reported net income of $7,041, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to a net loss of ($11,442), or ($0.41) per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources (in thousands)

 

At September 30, 2017, our principal sources of liquidity were cash provided by operations, cash on hand, and the revolving credit facility. Our principal uses of cash have been cash used to reduce accounts payable balances, purchase of property and make payments on the term and revolving credit facilities.

 

Cash and cash equivalents on-hand decreased to $11,394 on September 30, 2017, from $11,604 on December 31, 2016, a decrease of $210. Earnings from foreign operations are considered permanently re-invested and of the $11,394 cash balance on September 30, 2017, cash from foreign entities totaled $8,735, which constitutes 77% of the total cash and cash equivalents balance.

 

Accounts receivable, net of allowances, increased to $96,830 on September 30, 2017, from $83,835 on December 31, 2016, an increase of $12,995. The increase was primarily attributable to increased sales in 2017 partially offset by strong cash collections during the first nine months of 2017.

 

Inventories decreased to $72,005 on September 30, 2017, from $72,769 on December 31, 2016, a decrease of $764. The net decrease was primarily attributable to improved supply chain and inventory purchasing processes, offset by inventory purchases at the end of the third quarter to meet fourth quarter demand for new product launches.

 

Accounts payable decreased to $82,742 on September 30, 2017, from $85,022 on December 31, 2016, a decrease of $2,280. The decrease was primarily attributable to timing of payments to suppliers at each respective period-end.

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had a positive working capital of $19,677 compared to negative working capital of ($9,408) as of December 31, 2016. The increase in the working capital position was primarily attributable to reductions in accounts payable and the line of credit, and an increase in accounts receivable.

 

Based on the current level of operations, we believe that cash to be generated from operations, cash on hand, and available borrowings under existing credit arrangements will be adequate to fund expected capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next 12 months.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks result primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In addition, our international operations are subject to risks related to differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, and other regulations and restrictions.

 

To date we have not utilized derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. We do not expect to employ these or other strategies to hedge market risk in the foreseeable future. We invest our cash in money market funds, which are subject to minimal credit and market risk. We believe that the market risks associated with these financial instruments are immaterial, although there can be no guarantee that these market risks will be immaterial to us.

 

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

As a result of the material weakness related to a material overstatement of net sales and accounts receivable as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, which was corrected by management prior to issuance of the 2016 consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, management has completed the following changes to its internal controls during the nine months ended September 30, 2017:

 

Conducted training regarding the design and operation of controls with those responsible for performing and reviewing the process level control activities over revenue, accounts receivable and in transit inventory.
Enhanced review controls over revenue, accounts receivable, and inventory.
Tasked the ZAGG operations team to identify information technology solutions that streamline the process for tracking and reporting orders shipped from China directly to customers.
Enhanced the risk assessment process to consider significant changes in the business operations and the associated impact on financial reporting and internal controls

 

Management has assessed the above identified changes to its internal control over financial reporting to ensure that the changes have been properly designed and implemented and are operating effectively. The assessment performed has allowed management to conclude that the material weakness at December 31, 2016 has been remediated. The process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies which may be identified during this process.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Nevertheless, an internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system reflects the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls are considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
