Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Shift Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on December 9, 2013. The Company conducts its business through its wholly owned subsidiaries Shift Operations, LLC, and Shift Finance, LLC.

 

The Company is based in and operates out of San Francisco, California and operates hubs to purchase, recondition and sell vehicles in the following markets in California: San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sacramento and San Diego; as well as operating in Portland, Oregon. Shift operates an innovative platform to make car purchases, car sales and ownership simple. Shift’s innovative platform, which includes proprietary pricing technology, provides consumers with a digital purchase and selling experience, and includes offerings throughout the sales cycle, including vehicle pickup and delivery at a customer’s location.

 

Insurance Acquisition Corp. Merger

 

On June 29, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company and Insurance Acquisition Corp., (“IAC”), an entity listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trade symbol “INSU”, IAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of IAC (“Merger Sub”), providing for, among other things, and subject to the conditions therein, the combination of the Company and IAC pursuant to the proposed merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”).

 

On October 13, 2020, shareholders approved the Merger Agreement, under which Shift received approximately $302 million, net of fees and expenses. See Note 12 Subsequent Events for additional details regarding this transaction.

 

COVID-19

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and the Company expects its operations in all locations to be affected as the virus continues to proliferate. The Company saw a slowing of vehicle sales immediately following the shelter in place ordinances in March; however, within five weeks, weekly sales volume rebounded nearly to pre-COVID-19 volumes. The Company has adjusted certain aspects of its operations to protect its employees and customers while still meeting customers’ needs for vital technology, including implementing contactless purchase and delivery processes and applying long-term antimicrobial surface and air protection systems for its entire inventory.

 

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), was signed into law in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act includes several significant income tax relief provisions as well as the deferral of the employer portion of the social security payroll tax. The income tax benefits include a favorable increase in the interest expense limitation under section 163(j), allowing a five-year net operating loss (“NOL”) carryback provision for certain NOLs, and increasing the amount of NOLs corporations may use to offset income for taxable years beginning before 2021. The Company has evaluated the income tax impacts of the CARES Act and does not expect that the income tax relief provisions of the CARES Act would not significantly impact the Company, since it has had taxable losses since inception. In addition, the Company has adopted the deferral of the employer portion of the social security payroll tax. The deferral is effective from the enactment date through December 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the Company deferred $0.7 million. The deferred amount will be paid in two installments and the amount will be considered timely paid if 50% of the deferred amount is paid by December 31, 2021 and the remainder by December 31, 2022. In April 2020, the Company, through its subsidiaries Shift Technologies and Shift Operations, also borrowed unsecured loans (“PPP Loans”) under the Paycheck Protection Program established under the CARES Act. Refer to Note 4 for additional information regarding the PPP Loans.

Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

Liquidity

 

Since inception, the Company has generated recurring losses which has resulted in an accumulated deficit of $269.9 million as of September 30, 2020. Further, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had negative operating cash flows of $45.9 million. As previously noted, the Company closed the Merger on October 13, 2020. As a result of the Merger, the Company received gross proceeds of $342 million. Management believes that the cash position, inclusive of the funds raised with the Merger, is sufficient to meet capital and liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future and therefore there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions, including those related to the valuation of vehicle inventory, capitalized website and internal-use software development costs, fair value of common stock, warrants, stock-based compensation and income taxes.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global economy, as well as the Company’s operations, and the extent and duration of the impacts remain unclear. The Company’s future estimates, including, but not limited to, the inventory valuations, and fair value measurements, may be impacted and continue to evolve as conditions change as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:

 

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

F-8

 

 

SHIFT TECHNOLOGIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability. As of September 30, 2020, all liability-classified warrants that are remeasured in a recurring basis have been valued using Level 3 inputs. The calculation of the warrant value is based on the Black-Scholes valuation model, which requires significant estimates including the expected volatility of our common stock, expected dividend yield, option term and risk-free rate. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, there were no accumulated gains or losses related to these financial instruments in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

 

The Company recorded a remeasurement loss of $0.6 million and $6.2 million presented in interest and other expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

 

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020, the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, condensed consolidated statements of convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ deficit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and amounts relating to the interim periods included in the accompanying notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements, and in management’s opinion, includes all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020, and its results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year or any other periods. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-to-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. This ASU is effective for public and private companies’ fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and December 15, 2021, respectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2016-02 under the private company transition guidance beginning January 1, 2022, and is currently evaluating the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and subsequent related ASUs, which amends the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments by requiring measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. This ASU is effective for public and private companies’ fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, and December 15, 2022, respectively. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2016-13 under the private company transition guidance beginning January 1, 2023, and is currently evaluating the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The intent of this pronouncement is to align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software as defined in ASC 350-40. Under ASU 2018-15, the capitalized implementation costs related to a cloud computing arrangement will be amortized over the term of the arrangement and all capitalized implementation amounts will be required to be presented in the same line items of the financial statements as the related hosting fees. ASU 2018-15 is effective for public and private companies’ fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and December 15, 2020, respectively, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2018-15 under the private company transition guidance beginning January 1, 2021, and is currently evaluating the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for private entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2019-12 under the private company transition guidance beginning January 1, 2022, and is currently assessing the impact the guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)–Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional expedients and exceptions to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022. The amendments in this update are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities. This guidance is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance. However, the impact of this ASU is not expected to be material as the Company is not party to any contracts referencing LIBOR that extend past its expected discontinuation.

5.STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

 

In February 2019, the Company completed an additional closing of the Series D convertible preferred stock and issued 4,555,805 shares at $1.2731 per share for gross $5.8 million.

 

Exchange of Common Stock for Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

 

In February 2019, the Company approved the sale of up to an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock (the “Secondary Shares”) by certain holders of common stock to certain existing or new investors in the Company at a price per share of $1.2731, equal to the original issuance price of the Series D preferred stock. Concurrent with this approval, the Company also approved the exchange of such Secondary Shares for shares of Series D convertible preferred stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of the stock exchange agreement to be entered into by the Company and the holders of the Secondary Shares. Up to 5,000,000 shares of the Series D convertible preferred stock are reserved for issuance pursuant to the terms of an exchange agreement.

 

During the nine-month period ended September 30,2019, certain employee stockholders completed secondary sales of 3,464,706 shares of common stock of the Company to new and existing investors. During the same period, the Company issued 3,464,706 shares of Series D convertible preferred stock in exchange for common stock. The Company recognized $4.7 million in non-cash compensation expense, $1.6 million in payroll tax liabilities and an increase to additional paid-in-capital, which was computed as the difference between the fair value of Series D convertible preferred stock and common stock at the time of exchange of shares.

 

Warrant and Commercial Agreements

 

In September 2018, the Company entered into a warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) and a commercial agreement for Milestone 1 with Lithia and granted Lithia a warrant to purchase 86,661,588 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “Warrant Shares”). The Warrant Shares shall vest and become exercisable in six separate tranches of 14,443,598 shares each. Vesting and exercisability is dependent upon the achievement of the Milestones, as defined below. While the Warrant Agreement establishes general vesting terms for each of the six Milestones, each of the six Milestones contains substantive service or performance requirements, and were non-binding as neither the Company nor Lithia were obligated to perform until the commercial agreement associated with each Milestone was executed.

Two tranches of 14,443,598 Warrant Shares shall each vest and become immediately exercisable upon the achievement of each of Milestone 1 and Milestone 2. The remaining four tranches of 14,443,598 Warrant Shares each shall vest and become exercisable on January 12, 2020 (the “Vesting Cliff Date”), provided that Milestone 3, Milestone 4, Milestone 5 and Milestone 6 have been achieved prior to such date. If such Milestone has not been achieved by the Vesting Cliff Date, such 14,443,598 Warrant Shares shall vest and become immediately exercisable upon the achievement of such Milestone. Any unvested Warrant Shares that have not vested by June 12, 2020 (the “Vesting Termination Date”), the Warrant shall automatically terminate with respect to any Warrant Shares which have not become exercisable as of the Vesting Termination Date. All Warrant Shares vested in January 2020.

 

Milestone 1 — the Company, with Lithia’s assistance, enters into acceptable credit facilities with access to asset-based used vehicle floorplan financing.

 

Milestone 2 — the Company and Lithia enter into a data sharing commercial agreement whereby Lithia agrees to transfer certain historical transaction and inventory data to the Company.

 

Milestone 3 — the Company and Lithia enter into a lease and services agreement whereby Lithia will make available at least one of its locations for the Company’s use as a storage/reconditioning/retail delivery center.

 

Milestone 4 — the Company and Lithia enter into a lease and services agreement whereby Lithia will make available at least three of its locations for the Company’s use as a storage/reconditioning/retail delivery center.

 

Milestone 5 — the Company and Lithia enter a commercial agreement whereby Lithia agrees to use commercially reasonable best efforts to help the Company secure and maintain access to finance and insurance products on par with a typical Lithia store.

 

Milestone 6 — the Company and Lithia entering into a commercial agreement where Lithia will purchase mutually-agreed upon vehicles from the Company in a minimum of three existing Lithia markets.

 

2018 Milestones

 

The commercial agreement agreed to with Lithia in September 2018 was entered into concurrently with arrangements that provide for Lithia’s guarantee of the flooring line of credit for a three-year period and the provision by Lithia for the delayed draw facility. The Company determined that there was significant value in the terms received related to both the guarantee and delayed draw facility, for which the Company transferred the warrants identified in Milestone 1 as compensation. Accordingly, upon entering into the arrangements, the Company measured the fair value of the guarantee received at $9.1 million and the fair value of the delayed draw facility at $5.7 million. Further the Company measured the fair value of the warrants to be transferred to Lithia in exchange for Milestone 1 at $4.2 million. The fair value of the guarantee is treated as a deferred borrowing cost associated with the flooring line of credit and is included within deferred borrowing costs on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The deferred loan commitment cost of $5.7 million is being amortized over the four-year loan commitment period, which resulted in interest expense of $333 thousand during the three month periods ending September 30, 2020 and 2019, and $1.0 million and $832 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The warrants issued with Milestone 1 were determined to be liability classified, subject to remeasurement, and are recorded within other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019. The Company recorded a remeasurement gain of $0.1 million and a loss of $0.1 million to interest and other income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The Company recorded a remeasurement loss of $0.6 million and $6.2 million to interest and other expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Milestone 3 was achieved in December 2018 and the Company recorded the release of the corresponding warrant shares at the then fair value of $4.2 million. The warrants issued with Milestone 3 were determined to be liability classified and are subject to remeasurement, and at December 31, 2018, were recorded within other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. At initial recognition of the liability, the fair value of the warrants was determined to be compensation in the form of a lease commission fee which was expensed during 2018 in its entirety to selling, general, and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2018-07, and reclassified the fair value of Milestone 3 warrants of $3.9 million from liability to equity and in turn, the balance is no longer subject to remeasurement after the date of adoption.

 

2019 Milestones

 

Prior to 2019, the Company had generated an immaterial amount of sales from Lithia. Beginning in 2019, the Company began to generate more substantial sales with Lithia. As Lithia is a customer, the Company assessed the warrants as consideration payable to a customer under ASC 606.

 

During the three quarters of 2019, the Company entered into agreements related to Milestone 2 and 4 that contractually obligated both the Company and Lithia to perform and, upon signing the relevant agreement, Lithia earned the related warrants. The Company determined that the grant date fair value for the cumulative equity-classified warrants earned related to Milestones 2 and 4 was $9.2 million. For each of the Milestones, the Company considered whether it received distinct goods or services for which it could reasonably estimate the fair value. For Milestone 2, The Company determine that historical data received from Lithia provided an immediate benefit to the Company. The Company concluded that the data represented a distinct good or service. The estimated fair value of such benefit of $2.2 million which was recorded immediately to selling, general, and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. For Milestone 4, the Company received an immaterial amount of distinct goods or services associated with securing the leased space and provisioning of infrastructure so the Company could sell to Lithia in certain markets. Of the remaining value associated with the warrants, $4.1 million was recorded as a reduction to revenue for the first and third quarters from Lithia, $2.7 million as a deferred cost recorded to noncurrent assets, and $0.5 as a noncurrent liability to recognize further constraint under the assumption that warrant value could have increased in the third quarter of 2019. The Company considered the appropriate treatment for the remaining $0.7 million of value associated with the warrants. The Company determined that it was appropriate to recharacterize such amount that exceeded the cumulative revenue recognized as an expense as the arrangements with Lithia do not provide the Company with an exclusive right to sell cars to Lithia and Lithia has no minimum purchase commitment. Accordingly, the Company recorded $0.7 million to selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

In connection with the negotiations related to Milestone 5, Lithia facilitated an agreement with Automotive Warranty Services (“AWS”) to sell and market AWS’s service plans, whereby the Company receives commission rates from AWS of comparable terms to those received by Lithia. In substance the Company paid Lithia, in the form of Warrant Shares, to make an upfront payment to Company’s customers on behalf of the Company as the Company achieved favorable pricing from AWS. The benefits of this agreement were guaranteed by Lithia for an initial term of five years commencing on the signing date of the agreement. Such arrangement was the first of a number of agreements to be entered into under the terms of Milestone 5, see further discussion below. During the first quarter of 2019, the estimated fair value of the in substance upfront payment to AWS of $2.8 million was recorded, with an offsetting entry recorded to additional paid-in capital, representing a capital transaction with a related party.

Milestone 5 was met in October 2019 and the Company recorded these warrants to additional paid-in capital based on a fair value of $4.3 million. Milestone 5 was achieved after a mutual signed agreement was entered into evidencing that Lithia provided commercially best efforts to help the Company secure and maintain access to four finance and insurance products on par with a typical Lithia store. The fair value of the in substance upfront payment, other than the $2.8 million for AWS discussed above, was $351 thousand and was recorded to other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The combined asset recorded of $3.2 million is subject to amortization over a five-year expected period of benefit. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company amortized $159 thousand and $478 thousand, respectively, of the asset as a reduction to finance and insurance sales, which is recorded within other revenues on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company amortized $142 thousand and $425 thousand, respectively, of the asset as a reduction to finance and insurance sales. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the remaining asset, net of amortization, was $2.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a loss of $6.2 million related to a remeasurement of the warrants related to Milestone 1.

Common Stock Subject to Repurchase Related to Early Exercised Options

 

The Company typically allows employees to exercise options prior to vesting. Upon termination of service of an employee, the Company has the right to repurchase at the original purchase price any non-vested but issued common shares. Accordingly, such early exercises are not substantive for accounting purposes. The consideration received for an exercise of an option is considered to be a deposit of the exercise price, and the related dollar amount is recorded as a liability. The liability is reclassified into additional paid-in capital on a ratable basis as the award vests. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, $476 thousand and $605 thousand, respectively, was recorded to additional paid in capital related to the vesting of awards that were previously early exercised. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, $47 thousand and $173 thousand, respectively, was recorded to additional paid in capital related to the vesting of awards that were previously early exercised.

 

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has recorded a liability of $881 thousand relating to 3,598,034 options that were exercised and are non-vested.

 

A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested shares and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, is presented below:

 

   As of
September 30,

9.SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company currently is organized into two reportable segments: Retail and Wholesale. The Retail segment represents retail sales of used vehicles through the Company’s ecommerce platform and fees earned on sales of value-added products associated with those vehicles sales such as vehicle service contracts, guaranteed asset protection waiver coverage, prepaid maintenance plans, and appearance protection plans. The Wholesale segment represents sales of used vehicles through wholesale auctions or directly to a wholesaler (“DTW”).

 

No operating segments have been aggregated to form the reportable segments. The Company determined its operating segments based on how the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) or decision-making group, reviews the Company’s operating results in assessing performance and allocating resources. The CODM is the Co-Chief Executive Officers. The CODM reviews revenue and gross profit for each of the reportable segments. Gross profit is defined as revenue less cost of sales incurred by the segment. The CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset information as these are managed on an enterprise wide group basis. Accordingly, the Company does not report segment asset information. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have sales to customers outside the United States. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any assets located outside of the United States.
