MSLP Muscle Pharm Corporation (CE)

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Description of Business

Description of Business

MusclePharm Corporation, or the Company, was incorporated in Nevada in 2006.   Except as otherwise indicated herein, the terms “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to MusclePharm Corporation and its subsidiaries. The Company is a scientifically driven, performance lifestyle company that develops, manufactures, markets and distributes branded nutritional supplements. The Company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado and, as of September 30, 2016, had the following wholly-owned operating subsidiaries: MusclePharm Canada Enterprises Corp (“MusclePharm Canada”), MusclePharm Ireland Limited (“MusclePharm Ireland”) and MusclePharm Australia Pty Limited (“MusclePharm Australia”). A former subsidiary of the Company, BioZone Laboratories, Inc. (“BioZone”), was sold on May 9, 2016.

On August 24, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a restructuring plan for the Company. The approved restructuring plan was designed to reduce costs and to better align the Company’s resources for profitable growth. Specifically, through September 30, 2016, the restructuring plan resulted in: 1) reducing the Company’s workforce; 2) abandoning certain leased facilities; 3) renegotiating or terminating a number of contracts with endorsers in a strategic shift away from such arrangements and toward more cost effective marketing and advertising efforts; 4) discontinuing a number of stock keeping units (“SKUs”) and writing down inventory to net realizable value, or to zero in cases where the product was discontinued; and 5) writing off certain assets. Management has substantially completed the approved restructuring plan, and as such, we do not anticipate any additional restructuring charges. See Note 4 for further detail.

Management’s Plans with Respect to Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s management believes the restructuring plan implemented during August 2015, the reduction in ongoing operating costs and expense controls and the sale of BioZone, as further described in Note 6, may enable the Company ultimately to be profitable. However, the Company may need to continue to raise capital. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all.

As of September 30, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $159.8 million and recurring losses from operations. The Company may incur additional losses until such time it can generate significant revenues and/or reduce operating costs. In September 2014, the Company borrowed $8.0 million under a line of credit with a bank. In February 2015, the Company entered into a term loan agreement with the same bank and borrowed $4.0 million. In December 2015, the Company received $6.0 million upon the issuance of a convertible note with a related party and subsequently repaid all borrowings. In January 2016, the Company entered into a secured borrowing arrangement, pursuant to which the Company has the ability to borrow up to $10.0 million subject to sufficient amounts of accounts receivable to secure the loan. Under this arrangement, during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company received $39.5 million in cash and subsequently repaid $40.0 million, including fees and interest, on or prior to September 30, 2016.

As of September 30, 2016, the Company had approximately $5.9 million in cash and $21.0 million in working capital deficit.

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of, and for, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be required to liquidate its assets. The Company has not established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs for at least the next 12 months in order to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to meet its total liabilities of $54.8 million as of September 30, 2016, and to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. The Company can give no assurances that any additional capital that it is able to obtain, if any, will be sufficient to meet its needs, or that any such financing will be obtainable on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations or substantially curtail its commercial activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MusclePharm Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Company’s management believes the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2016, results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

These unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on March 17, 2016.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, revenue discounts and allowances, the valuation of inventory and tax assets, the assessment of useful lives, recoverability and valuation of long-lived assets, likelihood and range of possible losses on contingencies, restructuring liabilities, valuations of equity securities and intangible assets, fair value of derivatives, warrants and options, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

The Company’s standard terms and conditions of sale allow for product returns or replacements in certain cases. Estimates of expected future product returns are recognized at the time of sale based on analyses of historical return trends by customer type. Upon recognition, the Company reduces revenue and cost of revenue for the estimated return. Return rates can fluctuate over time, but are sufficiently predictable with established customers to allow the Company to estimate expected future product returns, and an accrual is recorded for future expected returns when the related revenue is recognized. Product returns incurred from established customers were insignificant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The Company offers sales incentives through various programs, consisting primarily of advertising related credits, volume incentive rebates and sales incentive reserves. The Company records advertising related credits with customers as a reduction to revenue as no identifiable benefit is received in exchange for credits claimed by the customer. Volume incentive rebates are provided to certain customers based on contractually agreed upon percentages once certain thresholds have been met. Sales incentive reserves are computed based on historical trending and budgeted discount percentages, which are typically based on historical discount rates with adjustments for any known changes, such as future promotions or one-time historical promotions that will not repeat for each customer. The Company records sales incentive reserves and volume rebate reserves as a reduction to revenue.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded discounts, and to a lesser degree, sales returns, totaling $10.8 million and $27.9 million, respectively, which accounted for 26% and 21% of gross revenue in each period, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded discounts, and to a lesser degree, sales returns, totaling $5.9 million and $19.9 million, respectively, which accounted for 15% and 14% of gross revenue in each period, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company estimates the fair value of employee stock options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The determination of the fair value of each stock award using this option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and the expected term of the awards based on an analysis of the actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors and the contractual term of the awards. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is generally consistent with the vesting of the awards, based on the estimated fair value of all stock-based payments issued to employees and directors that are expected to vest.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

During August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments , which addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”) which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”) which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”) which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. The Company is still evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2016-09”). The standard identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which supersedes Topic 840, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The guidance in this new standard requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to the current accounting and eliminates the current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. The guidance also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases for lessors. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11,  Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory  (“ASU 2015-11”), which simplifies the subsequent measurement of inventory by requiring inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventory in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-11.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements— Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASU 2014-15”). The standard provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures and was issued to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-15 as of December 31, 2015.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition , and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU also supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition- Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts . ASU 2014-09’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which a company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under today’s guidance, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14,  Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date  (“ASU 2015-14”), which delays the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year. The FASB also agreed to allow entities to choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date. As such, the updated standard will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018, with the option to adopt it in the first quarter of 2017. The Company may adopt the new standard under the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has determined the effect of ASU 2014-09 on its ongoing financial reporting.

Note 3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes the fair value of the obligation under secured borrowing arrangement and convertible note with a related party approximates carrying value because the debt carries market rates of interest, and are both short-term in nature. The Company’s remaining financial instruments consisted primarily of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and accrued restructuring charges, all of which are short-term in nature with fair values approximating carrying value.

Note 4. Restructuring

As part of an effort to better focus and align the Company’s resources toward profitable growth, on August 24, 2015, the Board authorized the Company to undertake steps to commence a restructuring of the business and operations, which concluded during the current quarter. The Company closed certain facilities, reduced headcount, discontinued products, and renegotiated certain contracts resulting in restructuring and other charges of $21.2 million in 2015, of which $2.9 million was included in “Cost of revenue” and $18.3 million was included in operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2015.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded restructuring charges in “Cost of revenue” of $0.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively, related to the write-down of inventory identified to be discontinued in the restructuring plan. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, such write-down for discontinued inventory recorded in “Cost of revenue” was $1.3 million, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $1.7 million. During the period, the Company closed its accounting and administration office in Denver, Colorado and its distribution center in Pittsburg, California.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a credit in “Restructuring and other charges” of $2.6 million comprised of: (i) an expense credit of $4.8 million related to the release of a restructuring accrual of $7.0 million, offset by the cash payment of $2.2 million related to the settlement agreement which terminated all future commitments between ETW Corporation (“ETW”) and the Company (see Note 14); (ii) $1.3 million related to write-off of long-lived assets related to the abandonment of certain lease facilities; and (iii) $0.9 million related to severance and other employee compensation costs. With the restructuring plan substantially complete, the Company does not anticipate incurring any additional restructuring charges for the remainder of 2016.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded expense of $16.7 million in “Restructuring and other charges” comprised of: (i) $9.3 million related to severance and other employee compensation costs; (ii) $6.6 million related to cancellation of certain contracts and sponsorship agreements; and (iii) $0.8 million for costs associated with permanently vacating certain leased facilities.

As of September 30, 2016, the restructuring charges to be paid in cash totaled $2.5 million.

The following table illustrates the provision of the restructuring charges and the accrued restructuring charges balance as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

The total future payments under the restructuring plan as of September 30, 2016 are as follows (in thousands):

Note 5. Capstone Nutrition Agreements

The Company entered into a series of agreements with Capstone Nutrition (“Capstone”) effective March 2, 2015, including an amendment (the “Amendment”) to a Manufacturing Agreement dated November 27, 2013 (as amended, the “Manufacturing Agreement”). Pursuant to the Amendment, Capstone shall be the Company’s nonexclusive manufacturer of dietary supplements and food products sold or intended to be sold by the Company. The Amendment includes various agreements including amended pricing terms. The initial term per this Amendment was to end on January 1, 2022, and could have been extended for three successive 24-month terms, and includes renewal options.

The Company agreed to pay to Capstone a non-refundable sum of $2.5 million to be used by Capstone solely in connection with the expansion of its facility necessary to fulfill anticipated Company requirements under the Manufacturing Agreement and Amendment. The Company paid Capstone this $2.5 million during 2015.

The Company and Capstone entered into a Class B Common Stock Warrant Purchase Agreement (“Warrant Agreement”) whereby the Company could purchase approximately 19.9% of Capstone’s parent company, INI Parent, Inc. (“INI”), on a fully-diluted basis as of March 2, 2015. Pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, INI issued to the Company a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase shares of INI’s Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “Warrant Shares”). The Warrant could have been exercised if the Company was in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Amendment.

The Company utilized the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the value of the Warrant and recorded an asset of $977,000, which was accounted for under the cost method and assessed for impairment. The Warrant was included in long-term investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015. However, during the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reassessed the value of the Warrant and considered it to be fully impaired as the Company no longer believes there is any remaining value to the Warrant. The Company also had recorded $1.5 million of prepaid expenses and other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2015, which were being amortized over the remaining life of the Manufacturing Agreement of 6.5 years. However, during the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reassessed the Manufacturing Agreement, which was the basis of the prepaid asset, and considered the entire remaining balance of $1.4 million impaired as the Company no longer believes there is any remaining value to the Manufacturing Agreement. These conclusions were based in large part on the fact that Capstone sold its primary powder manufacturing facility during the quarter ended June 30, 2016, which significantly reduced its manufacturing capacity, and the ongoing dispute which is discussed below.

In total, the Company recognized $2.4 million of impairment expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 related to previously recorded Capstone-related assets.

The Company and INI also entered into an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”). Subject to additional provisions and conditions set forth in the Option Agreement, at any time on or prior to June 30, 2016, the Company had the right to purchase for cash all of the remaining outstanding shares of INI’s common stock not already owned by the Company after giving effect to the exercise of the Warrant, based on an aggregate enterprise value, equal to $200.0 million. The fair value of the option was deemed de minimis as of the transaction date. The Company did not exercise the option to purchase the remaining outstanding shares of INI’s common stock and such option expired on June 30, 2016.

The Company is engaged in a dispute with Capstone arising out of a Manufacturing Agreement between the parties. Capstone claims $65.0 million in damages, including approximately $22.0 million it claims the Company owes pursuant to the Manufacturing Agreement, of which $21.9 million was included in the Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities balances as of September 30, 2016. The Company claims that Capstone owes the Company at least $13.5 million for losses caused by, among other things, Capstone’s failure to timely manufacture and supply the Company’s products. On February 12, 2016, Capstone commenced a mediation with the American Arbitration Association. Subsequent to September 30, 2016, the parties entered into a settlement agreement. See Note 18.

Note 6. Sale of BioZone

In May 2016, the Company completed the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary, BioZone, for gross proceeds of $9.8 million, including cash of $5.9 million, a $2.0 million credit for future inventory deliveries reflected as a prepaid asset in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and $1.5 million which is subject to an earn-out based on the financial performance of BioZone for the twelve months following the closing of the transaction. In addition, the Company agreed to pay down $350,000 of BioZone’s accounts payables, which was deducted from the purchase price. As part of the transaction, the Company also agreed to transfer to the buyer 200,000 shares of its common stock with a market value on the date of issuance of $640,000, for consideration of $50,000. The Company recorded a loss of $2.1 million related to the sale of BioZone. The loss on the sale of BioZone primarily related to the subsidiary’s pre-tax losses for 2016. Pre-tax loss for BioZone for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $1.5 million.

Upon closing of the sale of BioZone, the Company entered into a manufacturing and supply agreement whereby the Company is required to purchase a minimum of $3.0 million of products from BioZone annually for an initial term of three years. The sale of BioZone did not qualify as discontinued operations as the disposal of BioZone did not represent a strategic shift that had (or will have) a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.

The following table summarizes the components of the loss from the sale of BioZone (in thousands):

In connection with the sale of BioZone, the Company and BioZone entered into a transition services agreement to provide administrative support which concluded in August 2016, and a sub-lease to the buyer for certain premises. The Company also entered into a product development and supply agreement with Flavor Producers, Inc. (“FPI”), the parent company of the buyer, to develop certain products to be sold by the Company. If the product development effort is successful, the minimum purchase commitment under the product development and supply agreement with FPI is $3.0 million over the term of 12 months. Pursuant to the agreement, product pricing is fixed for one year, and was negotiated as an arms-length transaction. As of September 30, 2016, the product development effort had not yet commenced.

The Company records charges for obsolete and slow moving inventory based on the age of the product as determined by the expiration date. Products within one year of their expiration dates are considered for write-off purposes. Historically, the Company has had minimal returns with established customers. Other than write-off of inventory during restructuring activities, the Company incurred insignificant inventory write-offs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Inventory write-downs, once established, are not reversed as they establish a new cost basis for the inventory.

As disclosed further in Note 4, the Company executed a restructuring plan in August 2015 and wrote off inventory related to discontinued products. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, discontinued inventory of $0.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively, was written off and included as a component of “Cost of revenue” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, discontinued inventory of $1.3 million, respectively, was written off and included as a component of “Cost of revenue” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In May 2016, the Company completed the sale of BioZone, which resulted in a reduction of inventory of $1.8 million. See additional information in Note 6. Additionally, $0.4 million of inventory related to the Arnold Schwarzenegger product line was considered impaired, and included as a component of the “Impairment of assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. See additional information in Note 14.

Depreciation and amortization expense related to property and equipment was $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is included in “Selling, general, and administrative” expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In May 2016, the Company completed the sale of BioZone, which resulted in a reduction of various components of property and equipment of $2.0 million. See additional information in Note 6. As disclosed further in Note 4, the Company executed a restructuring plan in August 2015 and wrote off certain long-lived assets, primarily leasehold improvements, related to the abandonment of certain leased facilities. The write-off of long-lived assets was $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and $0.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, and was included as a component of “Restructuring and other charges” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Intangible assets amortization expense was $80,000 and $278,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $496,000 and $776,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is included in the “Selling, general, and administrative” expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, $1.2 million of trademarks with a net carrying value of $0.8 million related to the Arnold Schwarzenegger product line were considered impaired, and included as a component of the “Impairment of assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. See additional information in Note 14.

As of September 30, 2016, the estimated future amortization expense of intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):

In September 2014, the Company entered into a line of credit facility with ANB Bank for up to $8.0 million of borrowings. The line of credit originally matured in September 2017, and accrued interest at the prime rate plus 2%. The line of credit was secured by inventory, accounts receivable, intangible assets and equipment. As of December 31, 2015, the outstanding borrowings under the line of credit were $3.0 million. The Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants under the line of credit as of December 31, 2015, which limited further borrowings. The Company repaid its outstanding principal and accrued interest under the line of credit in full in January 2016 in conjunction with the Company’s secured borrowing arrangement as described below. This line is no longer available to the Company.

In February 2015, the Company entered into a $4.0 million term loan agreement with ANB Bank. The term loan carried a fixed interest rate of 5.25% per annum, was repayable in 36 equal monthly installments of principal and interest, and originally matured in February 2018. The term loan contained various events of default, including cross default provisions related to the line of credit, which could have required repayments of the term loan. The Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants under the term loan as of December 31, 2015, and received various waivers from the lender during the year ended December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015, the outstanding borrowings under the term loan were $2.9 million. The Company repaid its outstanding principal and accrued interest under the term loan in full in January 2016 to retire the term loan in conjunction with the Company’s secured borrowing arrangement as described below.

In October 2015, the Company entered into loan modification agreements with ANB Bank under the line of credit and term loan to: (i) change the maturity date of the loans to January 15, 2016, (ii) prohibit the loans to be declared in default prior to December 10, 2015, except for defaults resulting from failure to make timely payments, and (iii) delete certain financial covenants from the line of credit. In consideration for these modifications, Ryan Drexler, Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim President and Chairman of the Board, and a family member provided their individual guaranty for the remaining balance of the term loan and line of credit of $6.2 million. In consideration for executing his guaranty, the Company issued to Mr. Drexler 28,571 shares of the Company’s common stock with a grant date fair value of $80,000 (based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance).

In December 2015, the Company entered into a convertible secured promissory note agreement with Mr. Drexler, pursuant to which he loaned the Company $6.0 million. Proceeds from the note were used to fund working capital requirements. The convertible note is secured by all assets and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries whether tangible or intangible. The convertible note carries an interest at a rate of 8% per annum, or 10% in the event of default. Both the principal and the interest under the convertible note are due in January 2017, unless converted earlier. The holder can convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest into shares of common stock (2,608,695 shares) for $2.30 per share at any time. The Company may prepay the convertible note at the aggregate principal amount therein plus accrued interest by giving the holder between 15 and 60 day-notice, depending upon the specific circumstances, provided that the holder may convert the note during the notice period. The Company recorded the convertible note of $6.0 million as a liability in the balance sheet and also recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $52,000 as a debt discount upon issuance of the convertible note, which is being amortized over the term of the convertible debt using the effective interest method. The beneficial conversion feature was calculated based on the difference between the fair value of common stock and the effective conversion price of the convertible note. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the convertible note had an outstanding principal balance of $6.0 million.

In January 2016, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Prestige Capital Corporation (“Prestige”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and assign and Prestige agreed to buy and accept, certain accounts receivable owed to the Company (“Accounts”). Under the terms of the Agreement, upon the receipt and acceptance of each assignment of Accounts, Prestige will pay the Company 80% of the net face amount of the assigned Accounts, up to a maximum total borrowings of $10.0 million subject to sufficient amounts of accounts receivable to secure the loan. The remaining 20% will be paid to the Company upon collection of the assigned Accounts, less any chargeback, disputes, or other amounts due to Prestige. Prestige’s purchase of the assigned Accounts from the Company will be at a discount fee which varies based on the number of days outstanding from the assignment of Accounts to collection of the assigned Accounts. In addition, the Company granted Prestige a continuing security interest in and lien upon all accounts receivable, inventory, fixed assets, general intangibles and other assets. The Agreement’s initial term of six months has been extended by the Company to March 31, 2017. Prestige may cancel the Agreement with 30-day notice.

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company had no new transactions with Prestige. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company sold to Prestige accounts with an aggregate face amount of approximately $49.3 million, for which Prestige paid to the Company approximately $39.5 million in cash. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, $8.7 million and $40.0 million was subsequently repaid to Prestige, including fees and interest. The proceeds from the initial assignment to Prestige under this secured borrowing arrangement were primarily utilized to pay off the balance of the existing line of credit and term loan with ANB Bank.

Other

Other debt primarily consists of debt in default, which was immaterial, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and is included as a component of short-term debt. Debt in default is related to convertible debt issued during the year ended December 31, 2012 and prior where the convertible debt was never converted to common stock, nor was the principal repaid. The Company is in the process of contacting the remaining debt holder and negotiating settlement of the debt.

As of September 30, 2016, the product development effort had not yet commenced.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business or otherwise, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings. The Company will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. The accrual for a litigation loss contingency might include, for example, estimates of potential damages, outside legal fees and other directly related costs expected to be incurred. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was involved in the following material legal proceedings described below.

Third-Party Manufacturer Dispute

As of September 30, 2016, the Company was engaged in a dispute with Capstone concerning amounts allegedly owed under the Manufacturing Agreement. See Note 5 and Note 18 for further details.

Supplier Complaint

In January 2016, ThermoLife International LLC (“ThermoLife”), a supplier of nitrates to MusclePharm, filed a complaint against the Company in Arizona state court. In its complaint, ThermoLife alleges that the Company failed to meet minimum purchase requirements contained in the parties’ supply agreement. In March 2016, the Company filed an answer to ThermoLife’s complaint, denying the allegations contained in the complaint, and filed a counterclaim alleging that ThermoLife breached its express warranty to MusclePharm because ThermoLife’s products were defective and could not be incorporated into the Company’s products. Therefore, the Company believes that ThermoLife’s complaint is without merit.

Former Executive Lawsuit

In December 2015, the Company accepted notice by Mr. Richard Estalella (“Estalella”) to terminate his employment as the Company’s President. Although Estalella sought to terminate his employment with the Company for “Good Reason,” as defined in Estalella’s employment agreement with the Company (the “Employment Agreement”), the Company advised Estalella that it deemed his resignation to be without Good Reason.

In February 2016, Estalella filed a complaint in Colorado state court against the Company and Ryan Drexler, Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim President and Chairman of the Board, alleging, among other things, that the Company breached the Employment Agreement, and seeking certain equitable relief and unspecified damages. The Company believes Estalella’s claims are without merit. At the Company’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders in June 2016, Estalella was not reelected to the Board and is no longer a member of the Board. As of the date of this report, the Company has evaluated the potential outcome of this lawsuit and recorded the liability consistent with its policy.

Shareholder Derivative Complaint

In October 2015, Brian D. Gartner, derivatively and on behalf of MusclePharm Corporation, filed a verified shareholder derivative complaint in the 8th District Court, State of Nevada, Clark County (No. A-15-726810-B) alleging, among other things, breaches of fiduciary duty as members of the Board and/or executive officers of the Company against Brad Pyatt, Lawrence S. Meer, Donald W. Prosser, Richard Estalella, Jeremy R. Deluca, Michael J. Doron, Cory Gregory, L. Gary Davis, James J. Greenwell, John H. Bluher and Daniel J. McClory. Mr. Gartner alleges a series of accounting and disclosure failures resulted in the filing of materially false and misleading filings with the SEC from 2010 through July 2014, resulting in settlement with the SEC requiring payment of $700,000 of civil penalties. Mr. Gartner seeks various remedies, including interpretation of bylaws provisions, permanent injunctive relief, damages against the defendants for breaches of their fiduciary duty, corporate governance changes to ensure the Company maintains proper internal controls and SEC reporting procedures, as well as costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, accountants’ and experts’ fees, costs and expenses. The individual defendants sought removal of the action to federal court, which was granted. The plaintiff moved to remand the case back to state court, and the parties await decision on that motion.

Insurance Carrier Lawsuit

The Company is engaged in litigation with insurance carrier Liberty Insurance Underwriters, Inc. arising out of Liberty’s denial of coverage. In 2014, the Company sought coverage under an insurance policy with Liberty for claims against directors and officers of the Company arising out of an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Liberty denied coverage, and, on February 12, 2015, the Company filed a complaint in the District Court, City and County of Denver, Colorado against Liberty claiming wrongful and unreasonable denial of coverage for the cost and expenses incurred in connection with the SEC investigation and related matters. Liberty removed the complaint to the United States District Court for the District of Colorado, which in August 2016 granted Liberty’s motion for summary judgment, denying coverage and dismissing the Company’s claims with prejudice, and denied the Company’s motion for summary judgment. The Company has filed a motion for reconsideration that has not yet been decided.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

The Company is engaged in a dispute with Arnold Schwarzenegger, Marine MP, LLC, & Fitness Publications, Inc. (“AS Parties”) concerning amounts allegedly owed under the parties’ Endorsement Licensing and Co-Branding Agreement. In May 2016, the contract was terminated, and the AS Parties commenced arbitration, alleging that the Company breached the parties’ agreement and misappropriated Schwarzenegger’s likeness. They seek more than $13.0 million for royalties, purported misuse of Schwarzenegger’s likeness, and attorney fees. The Company filed its response and counterclaimed for breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The parties are engaged in discovery.

Manchester City Football Group

The Company is engaged in a dispute with City Football Group Limited (“CFG”), the owner of Manchester City Football Group, concerning amounts allegedly owed by the Company under a Sponsorship Agreement with CFG. In August 2016, CFG commenced arbitration in the United Kingdom against the Company, seeking approximately $8.3 million for the Company’s purported breach of the Agreement. The Company answered on October 7, 2016. An arbitrator has not yet been appointed and discovery has not yet begun.

Note 13. Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. There was no dilutive effect for the outstanding potentially dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as the Company reported a net loss for all periods.

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share for the periods presented (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. The Company uses the treasury stock method to determine whether there is a dilutive effect of outstanding potentially dilutive securities, and the if-converted method to assess the dilutive effect of the convertible note.

There was no dilutive effect for the outstanding awards for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as the Company reported a net loss for all periods. However, if the Company had net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the potentially dilutive securities included in the earnings per share computation would have been 2,608,695 for both periods. If the Company had net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the no dilutive securities would have been included in the diluted earnings per share computation for either period.

Total outstanding potentially dilutive securities were comprised of the following:

Note 14. Endorsement Agreements

In connection with this agreement, the Company also issued to Marine MP, LLC fully vested restricted shares of common stock with an aggregate market value of $8.5 million. The issuance was being amortized over the original three-year term of the agreement to “Advertising and promotion” expense.

In May 2016, the Company received written notice to terminate the Endorsement Licensing and Co-Branding Agreement effective immediately. As a result, $2.1 million of intangible assets, prepaid assets and inventory related to the Arnold Schwarzenegger product line was written off as an impairment expense. The agreement to terminate the product line stipulates that no further use of his likeness or sales of the inventory were allowed and therefore, the Company disposed all the remaining product in inventory and other related assets. The Company is engaged in a dispute with Mr. Schwarzenegger concerning the termination of the Endorsement Licensing and Co-Branding Agreement. See Note 10 for further details.

ETW

In July 2014, the Company entered into an Endorsement Agreement with ETW. Under the terms of the agreement, Tiger Woods agreed to endorse certain of the Company’s products and use a golf bag during all professional golf play that prominently displayed the MusclePharm name and logo.

In conjunction with this agreement, the Company issued 446,853 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock to ETW, with an aggregate market value of $5.0 million. The shares were amortized over the original four-year term of the agreement. The current and non-current portions of the unamortized stock compensation were initially included as a component of “Prepaid stock compensation” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amount of unamortized stock compensation expense of $3.5 million related to this agreement was written off in connection with the restructuring plan disclosed further in Note 4.

In May 2016, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with ETW, which eliminates all costs and terminates all future commitments under the Endorsement Agreement. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company paid ETW $2.2 million to terminate the parties’ obligations under Endorsement Agreement and to resolve all disputes between the parties. As a result, the Company adjusted its restructuring accrual balance from $7.0 million to $2.2 million according to the settlement agreement and recorded an expense credit of $4.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Johnny Manziel

In July 2014, the Company entered into an Endorsement Agreement for the services of Johnny Manziel. As part of this agreement, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $11.90 per share. The warrants vest monthly over a period of 24 months beginning August 15, 2014, and have a five-year contractual term. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $0 and $17,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $6,000 and $50,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to these warrants, which is included as a component of “Advertising and promotion” expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 15. Income Taxes

The Company did not record an additional tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and consist of taxes currently due. Deferred taxes relate to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on consideration of these items, management has established a full valuation allowance as it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will not be realized as of September 30, 2016.
