NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE AMOUNTS)

 

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization

Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “Twinlab,” “we,” “our” and “us”) was incorporated on October 24, 2013 under the laws of the State of Nevada as Mirror Me, Inc. On August 7, 2014, we amended our articles of incorporation and changed our name to Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc.

 

Nature of Operations

We are a marketer, distributor and direct to consumer retailer of branded nutritional supplements and other natural products sold to and through domestic health and natural food stores, mass market retailers, specialty store retailers, on-line retailers and websites. Internationally, we market and distribute branded nutritional supplements and other natural products to and through health and natural product distributors and retailers.

 

Our products include vitamins, minerals, specialty supplements and sports nutrition products sold under the Twinlab® brand name (including the REAAL®, Phytocab™ and Twinlab® Fuel brand of sports nutrition products); a market leader in the healthy aging and beauty from within categories sold under the Reserveage™ Nutrition and ResVitale® brand names; diet and energy products sold under the Metabolife® brand name; the Re-Body® brand name; and a full line of herbal teas sold under the Alvita® brand name. To accommodate consumer preferences, our products come in various formulations and delivery forms, including capsules, tablets, softgels, chewables, liquids, sprays and powders. These products are sold primarily through health and natural food stores and on-line retailers, supermarkets, and mass-market retailers.

 

Through our NutraScience Labs division, we provide contract manufacturing services for private label products. Our contract manufacturing services business leverages our network of co-packers to manufacture custom products to the specifications of a customer who requires finished products under the customer’s own brand name. We do not market these private label products as our business is to sell the products to the customer, who then markets and sells the products to retailers or end consumers. 

 

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Basis of Presentation and Unaudited Information

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained herein. Financial results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of financial results that may be expected for the fiscal year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on April 16, 2019.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant management estimates include those with respect to returns and allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the recoverability of long-lived assets, intangibles and goodwill and the estimated value of warrants and derivative liabilities.

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from product sales, net of estimated returns and allowances, is recognized when evidence of an arrangement is in place, related prices are fixed and determinable, contractual obligations have been satisfied, title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Shipping terms are generally freight on board shipping point. We sell predominately in the North American and European markets, with international sales transacted in U.S. dollars.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We apply the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

 

Level 1 – inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 – inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability.

 

The following table summarizes our financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Derivative liabilities

  $ 4,359       -       -     $ 4,359  

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowances

We grant credit to customers and generally do not require collateral or other security. We perform credit evaluations of our customers and provide for expected claims related to promotional items, customer discounts, shipping shortages, damages, and doubtful accounts based upon historical bad debt and claims experience. As of March 31, 2019, total allowances amounted to $4,207, of which $3,753 was related to doubtful accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2018, total allowances amounted to $2,651, of which $1,954 was related to doubtful accounts receivable.

 

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and are reduced by an estimated reserve for obsolete inventory.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, including amounts amortized under capital leases, is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which are 7 to 10 years for machinery and equipment, 8 years for furniture and fixtures and 3 years for computers. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease.

  

Normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation or amortization is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the results of operations.

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and customer relationships, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 30 years. The valuation and classification of these assets and the assignment of amortizable lives involve significant judgment and the use of estimates.

 

We believe that our long-term growth strategy supports our fair value conclusions. For intangible assets, the recoverability of these amounts is dependent upon achievement of our projections and the execution of key initiatives related to revenue growth and improved profitability.

 

6

 

 

Goodwill

Goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. The testing of goodwill under established guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in forecasted operations and other assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair values. Changes in business conditions could potentially require adjustments to these asset valuations.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value. The testing of these intangibles under established guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in forecasted operations and other assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair values. Changes in business conditions could potentially require adjustments to these asset valuations.

 

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Indefinite-lived intangible assets relating to the asset acquisition of Organic Holdings, LLC (“Organic Holdings”) a market leader in the healthy aging and beauty from within categories, and owner of the Reserveage Nutrition brands, are determined to have an indefinite useful economic life and as such are not amortized. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually which consists of a comparison of the fair value of the asset with its carrying value. The total indefinite-lived intangible assets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $4,346.

 

Value of Warrants Issued with Debt

We estimate the grant date value of certain warrants issued with debt, using an outside professional valuation firm, which uses the Monte Carlo option lattice model. We record the amounts as interest expense or debt discount, depending on the terms of the agreement. These estimates involve multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.

 

Derivative Liabilities

We have recorded certain warrants as derivative liabilities at estimated fair value, as determined based on our use of an outside professional valuation firm, due to the variable terms of the warrant agreements. The value of the derivative liabilities is generally estimated using the Monte Carlo option lattice model with multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project EBITDA and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.

 

Deferred gain on sale of assets

We entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement relating to our office facilities in 2013. Under the terms of the arrangement, we sold an office building and surrounding land and then leased the property back under a 15-year operating lease. We recorded a deferred gain for the amount of the gain on the sale of the asset, to be recognized as a reduction of rent expense over the life of the lease. Accordingly, we recorded amortization of deferred gain as a reduction of rental expense of $27 and $40 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, unamortized deferred gain on sale of assets was $1,297 and $1,324, respectively.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Basic net income or loss per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common shares then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of total shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common stock using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period.

 

When calculating diluted earnings or loss per share, if the effects are dilutive, companies are required to add back to net income or loss the effects of the change in derivative liabilities related to warrants. Additionally, if the effects of the change in derivative liabilities are added back to net income or loss, companies are required to include the warrants outstanding related to the derivative liability in the calculation of the weighted average dilutive shares.

Significant Concentration of Credit Risk

Sales to our top three customers aggregated to approximately 38% and 27% of total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Sales to one of those customers were approximately 14% and 15% of total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. A single customer represents 22% and 14% of total accounts receivable as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and is a related party through a director who sits on both the Company’s board and that of the customer.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the Financial Axcounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (Topic 350)” which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test that requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation.  A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.  The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.  Early adoption is permitted after January 1, 2017.  We do not expect the new guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires companies to recognize all leases as assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. This ASU retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases, and the classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the current accounting literature. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that under the lessee accounting model in Topic 842, the effect of leases in a consolidated statement of comprehensive income and a consolidated statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. Our status as an emerging growth company allowed us to defer the adoption until the year (and interim periods therein) beginning January 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its 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". ASU 2016-13 requires an organization to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Our status as an emerging growth company allows us to defer adoption until the annual period, including interim periods within the annual period, beginning January 1, 2021. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the impact of the adoption on the Company's financial position or results from operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. ASU 2014-09 amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous, industry-specific requirements and converges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. The amendment also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016; however, in July 2015, the FASB agreed to delay the effective date by one year. The proposed deferral may permit early adoption but would not allow adoption any earlier than the original effective date of the standard. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Our status as an emerging growth company allowed us to defer the adoption until the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and interim reporting periods within the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2020.  These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include the adoption of ASU 2014-09.  We will include the adoption of ASU 2014-09 in our annual reporting period ending December 31, 2019, and beginning in our interim reporting period for the three months ending March 31, 2020. We have reviewed this ASU and determined that it has no material impact to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations, but will impact the Company's disclosures. Our status as an emerging growth company allowed us to defer the adoption until the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and interim reporting periods within the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2020.  These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include the adoption of ASU 2014-09.  We will include the adoption of ASU 2014-09 in our annual reporting period ending December 31, 2019, and beginning in our interim reporting period for the three months ending March 31, 2020. We have reviewed this ASU and determined that it has no material impact to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations, but will impact the Company's disclosures.

 

Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by FASB, which we have adopted or will adopt, as applicable, we do not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. 

 

 

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. In most periods since our formation, we have generated losses from operations. As of March 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $283,155. Historical losses are primarily attributable to lower than planned sales resulting from low fill rates on demand due to limitations of our working capital, delayed product introductions and postponed marketing activities, merger-related and other restructuring costs, and interest and refinancing charges associated with our debt refinancing. Losses have been funded primarily through debt.

 

Because of our history of operating losses, significant interest expense on our debt, and the recording of significant derivative liabilities, we have a working capital deficiency of $77,103 as of March 31, 2019.  We also have $73,358 of debt, net of discount, due within the next 12 months. These continuing conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management has addressed operating issues through the following actions: focusing on growing the core business and brands; continuing emphasis on major customers and key products; operating costs that include significant workforce and salary expense reduction and continuing to negotiate lower prices from major suppliers.  We believe that we may need additional capital to execute our business plan. If additional funding is required, there can be no assurance that sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all.

This note is unsecured and matured on July 25, 2017 with an outstanding balance of $3,267. On February 6, 2018, we entered into an agreement with Little Harbor to convert the obligations into an unsecured promissory note.

This note is unsecured and was to mature on January 28, 2019; however, the maturity of this note has been extended to June 30, 2019. This note bears interest at an annual rate of 8.5%, with the principal payable at maturity.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we requested and Little Harbor LLC approved, full draw amounts totaling $4,770.

2014 Huntington Holdings, LLC

On August 6, 2016, the 18-month anniversary of the closing of a share purchase agreement, we were required to pay the purchaser of the common stock the difference between $2.29 per share and either a defined market price or a price per share determined by a valuation firm acceptable to both parties. Based on an outside professional valuation performed on the Company’s common stock, the Company estimated the stock price guarantee payment to be $3,210. Accordingly, the Company recorded a loss on the stock purchase price guarantee of $3,210 and a corresponding liability for the same amount in 2016, which was included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. On June 2, 2017, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Huntington Note”) in favor of 2014 Huntington Holdings LLC (“Huntington”). The Huntington Note matures on June 2, 2019 with the principal amount of $3,200 payable at maturity. Interest on the outstanding principal accrues at a rate of 8.5% per year from August 6, 2016 to August 15, 2017 and increases to 10% per year thereafter. We paid $50 to Huntington related to accrued interest from August 6, 2016 through the date of issuance of the Huntington Note. Huntington was required to return 778,385 shares of the Company’s common stock which were issued into escrow. We were required to provide certain piggyback registration rights to Huntington in regard to the remaining 749,999 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Huntington. If the Huntington Note was paid off prior to August 14, 2017, the 778,385 shares held in escrow were to be released from escrow and transferred to the Company for no additional consideration. If the note remained outstanding on August 15, 2017, we had the right, but not the obligation, to pay $140 to Huntington to purchase 764,192 of the subject shares held in escrow. Upon the exercise of this purchase option, the subject shares were to be released from escrow and transferred to the Company. If the note remained outstanding on August 15, 2017 and we did not exercise the option to purchase the shares, the shares were to be returned from escrow to Huntington and we would no longer have repurchase rights. On August 15, 2017, the note was outstanding, and we did not exercise the repurchase right. The 778,385 shares were returned from escrow to Huntington.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to certain warrants issued in 2015 will be increased if our adjusted EBITDA or the market price of the Company’s common stock do not meet certain defined amounts. We have recorded the estimated fair value of the warrants as of the date of issuance. Due to the variable terms of the warrant agreements, the warrants are recorded as derivative liabilities with a corresponding charge to our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants from the date of issuance to each balance sheet reporting date. As of March 31, 2019, we have estimated the total fair value of the derivative liabilities to be $4,994 as compared to $4,359 as of December 31, 2018. We had the following activity in our derivative liabilities account for the three months ended March 31, 2019:

 

Derivative liabilities as of December 31, 2018

  $ 4,359  

Reclassification of derivative liabilities

    (628 )
Loss on change in fair value of derivative liabilities     1,263  
         

Derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2019

  $ 4,994  

 

The value of the derivative liabilities is generally estimated using an options lattice model with multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project EBITDA and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.

 

 

 

NOTE 9 – STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

Preferred Stock

The Company has authorized 500,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. No shares of the preferred stock have been issued.

 

Twinlab Consolidation Corporation 2013 Stock Incentive Plan

The only equity compensation plan currently in effect is the Twinlab Consolidation Corporation 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the “TCC Plan”), which was assumed by the Company on September 16, 2014. The TCC Plan originally established a pool of 20,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance as incentive awards to employees for the purposes of attracting and retaining qualified employees who will aid in the success of the Company. From January through December 2015, the Company granted restricted stock units to certain employees of the Company pursuant to the TCC Plan. Each restricted stock unit relates to one share of the Company’s common stock. The restricted stock unit awards vest 25% each annually on various dates through 2019. The Company estimated the grant date fair market value per share of the restricted stock units and is amortizing the total estimated grant date value over the vesting periods. As of March 31, 2019, 7,194,412 shares remain available for use in the TCC Plan. 

 

Common Stock Repurchase

On January 5, 2017, pursuant to a repurchase agreement 642,366 shares of the Company’s common stock were purchased by the Company for an aggregate repurchase price of less than $1.

 

Stock Subscription Receivable and Loss on Stock Price Guarantee

As of March 31, 2019, the stock subscription receivable dated August 1, 2014 for the purchase of 1,528,384 shares of the Company’s common stock had a principal balance of $30 and bears interest at an annual rate of 5%.

NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Financing

 

MidCap Funding X Trust

 

On April 22, 2019, the Company and MidCap entered into Amendment No. 17 to Credit and Security Agreement and Limited Waiver (the "MidCap Seventeenth Amendment"). Pursuant to the MidCap Seventeenth Amendment, the existing Credit and Security Agreement was renewed between the parties and the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount (as defined in the MidCap Seventeenth Amendment) was increased from a total of $5,000to a total of $12,000. In addition, MidCap granted a waiver with respect to the Twinlab Companies' failure to satisfy Section 6.2 (Minimum Adjusted EBITDA) of the Credit Agreement because Twinlab Companies’ Adjusted EBITDA was less than $1,400 with respect to the measurement period from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. The waiver is limited to the measurement period.

 

Subsequent to entering into the MidCap Seventeenth Amendment, the Company issued a warrant to MidCap exercisable for up to 500,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $.76 per share (the "MidCap Warrant 3”). The Company has reserved 500,000 shares of Company common stock for issuance under the MidCap Warrant 3. The MidCap Warrant 3, if exercisable, expires on April 22, 2021.

 

The MidCap Warrant is also subject to customary adjustments upon any recapitalization, capital reorganization or reclassification, consolidation, merger or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
(Amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts and number of employees)

 

Overview

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other materials we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contain certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact, including statements regarding guidance, industry prospects or future results of operations or financial position made in this report are forward-looking. We often use words such as anticipates, believes, estimates, expects, intends, predicts, hopes, should, plans, will and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on management’s current expectations and accordingly are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results may vary materially from the expectations contained herein due to various important factors, including (but not limited to): consumer preferences, spending and debt levels; the general economic and credit environment; interest rates; variations in consumer purchasing activities; competitive pressures on sales; pricing and gross sales margins; the associated fees or estimated cost savings from contract renegotiations; and our ability to establish and maintain acceptable commercial terms with contract manufacturers.

 

Our Operations

 

We are an integrated marketer, distributor and retailer of branded nutritional supplements and other natural products sold to and through domestic health and natural food stores, mass market retailers, specialty store retailers, on-line retailers and websites. Internationally, we market and distribute branded nutritional supplements and other natural products to and through health and natural product distributors and retailers.

 

Our products include vitamins, minerals, specialty supplements and sports nutrition products primarily under the Twinlab® (including the REAAL®, and Twinlab® Fuel brand of sports nutrition products), Reserveage™ and ResVitale® brands. We also manufacture and sell diet and energy products under the Metabolife® and Re-Body® brands and a full line of herbal teas under the Alvita® brand. To accommodate consumer preferences, our products come in various formulations and delivery forms, including capsules, tablets, softgels, chewables, liquids, sprays, powders and whole herbs. These products are sold primarily through health and natural food stores and on-line retailers, supermarkets, and mass-market retailers.

 

We also perform contract manufacturing services for private label products.  Our contract manufacturing services business involves the manufacture of custom products to the specifications of a customer who requires finished products under the customer’s own brand name.  We do not market these private label products as our business is to sell the products to the customer, who then markets and sells the products to retailers or end consumers.

 

We distribute one of the broadest branded product lines in the industry with approximately 260 stock keeping units, or SKUs. We believe that as a result of our emphasis on innovation, quality, loyalty, education and customer service, our brands are widely recognized in health and natural food stores and among their customers.

 

We have fully integrated our two 2015 acquisitions.  The first was the acquisition of the customer relationships of Nutricap, a provider of dietary supplement contract manufacturing services, into our subsidiary, NutraScience, in February 2015, and the second was the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests of Organic Holdings, a market leader in the healthy aging and beauty from within categories and owner of the award-winning Reserveage™ Nutrition brand, in October 2015. We continue to believe that these acquisitions significantly strengthened our product offerings, contract manufacturing services and our sales and marketing capabilities, providing us with opportunities to improve our market position in addition to adding to supply chain efficiencies.

 

Recent Developments

 

Changes in Officers and Board Member Changes

 

On March 27, 2019, Mr. Mark Bugge resigned from the Company’s board of directors. Mr. Bugge's decision to resign from the Company's board of directors did not involve any disagreement with the Company, management, or the board of directors.

Ms. Goffstein holds a Bachelor of Science in Finance from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. In most periods since our formation, we have generated losses from operations. As of March 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $283,156. Historical losses are primarily attributable to lower than planned sales resulting from low fill rates on demand due to limitations of our working capital, delayed product introductions and postponed marketing activities, merger-related and other restructuring costs, and interest and refinancing charges associated with our debt refinancing. Losses have been funded primarily through issuance of common stock and third-party or related party debt.

 

Because of this history of operating losses, significant interest expense on our debt, and the recording of significant derivative liabilities, we have a working capital deficiency of $77,103 as of March 31, 2019.  We also have $73,358 of debt, net of discount, due within the next 12 months. These continuing conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

It is possible that we may need additional capital to execute our business plan. If additional funding is required, there can be no assurance that sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. To meet capital requirements, the Company may consider selling certain assets.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of our financial statements required us to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates include values and lives assigned to acquired intangible assets, reserves for customer returns and allowances, uncollectible accounts receivable, valuation adjustments for slow moving, obsolete and/or damaged inventory and valuation, recoverability of long-lived assets, intangibles and goodwill, estimated values of stock options and warrants, share-based compensation, and the identification and valuation of derivatives. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Our critical accounting policies and estimates include the following:

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from product sales, net of estimated returns and allowances, is recognized when evidence of an arrangement is in place, related prices are fixed, and determinable, contractual obligations have been satisfied, title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Shipping terms are generally freight on board shipping point. We sell predominately in the North American and European markets, with international sales transacted in U.S. Dollars.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowances

We grant credit to customers and generally do not require collateral or other security. We perform credit evaluations of our customers and provide for expected claims, related to promotional items; customer discounts; shipping shortages and damages; and doubtful accounts based upon historical bad debt and claims experience.

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and are reduced by an estimated reserve for obsolete inventory.

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and customer relationships, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 30 years. The valuation and classification of these assets and the assignment of amortizable lives involve significant judgment and the use of estimates.

 

We believe that our long-term growth strategy supports our fair value conclusions. For intangible assets, the recoverability of these amounts is dependent upon achievement of our projections and the execution of key initiatives related to revenue growth and improved profitability.

 

Goodwill

Goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded to the extent the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value. The testing of goodwill under established guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in forecasted operations and other assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair values. Changes in business conditions could potentially require adjustments to these asset valuations.

 

25

 

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value. The testing of these intangibles under established guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in forecasted operations and other assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair values. Changes in business conditions could potentially require adjustments to these asset valuations.

 

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets

Indefinite-lived intangible assets relating to the asset acquisition of Organic Holdings are determined to have an indefinite useful economic life and as such are not amortized. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually which consists of a comparison of the fair value of the asset with its carrying value.

 

Value of Warrants Issued with Debt

We estimate the grant date value of certain warrants issued with debt, using an outside professional valuation firm, which uses the Monte Carlo option lattice model. We record the amounts as interest expense or debt discount, depending on the terms of the agreement. These estimates involve multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.

 

Derivative Liabilities

We have recorded certain warrants as derivative liabilities at estimated fair value, as determined based on the Company’s use of an outside professional valuation firm, due to the variable terms of the warrant agreements. The value of the derivative liabilities is generally estimated using Monte Carlo option lattice model with multiple inputs and assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, stock price volatility and other assumptions to project EBITDA and other reset events. These inputs and assumptions are subject to management’s judgment and can vary materially from period to period.

 

Share-Based Compensation

We record share-based compensation, including grants of restricted stock units, based on their grant date fair values and record compensation expense over the vesting period of the restricted stock awards.

 

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred income taxes are determined by applying currently enacted tax laws and rates to the cumulative temporary differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. Valuation allowances against deferred tax assets are recorded when we are unable to conclude that it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will be realized.

 

Results of Operations

 

Net Sales

Our net sales increased $306, or 2%, to $19,971 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $19,665 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This increase in our net sales is primarily due to the decrease in promotional allowances in 2019.

 

Gross Profit

Our gross profit decreased $1,819, or 45%, to $2,256 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $4,075 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease in our gross profit is derived from shifts in the margin mix of sales, lower gross sales, and costs incurred from the write off and disposal of raw/packing materials at contract manufacturers.

     

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1,680, or 19%, to $7,042 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $8,722 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is related to the Company’s 2018 rightsizing initiatives.

 

26

 

 

Interest Expense, Net

Our interest expense increased $605, or 29%, to $2,718 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $2,113 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to the additional financing that was procured in the later half of 2018.

 

Gain (Loss) on Change in Derivative Liabilities

We have recorded the estimated fair value of the warrants as of the date of issuance.  Due to the variable terms of the warrant agreements, changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants from the date of issuance to each balance sheet reporting date are recorded as derivative liabilities with a corresponding charge to our consolidated statements of operations.  During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded a loss on change in derivative liabilities of $1,263. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded a gain on change in derivative liabilities of $1,818. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At March 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $$283,156 primarily because of our history of operating losses and our recording of derivative liabilities and loss on stock purchase guarantee. We have a working capital deficiency of $77,103 at March 31, 2019. Losses have been funded primarily through issuance of common stock, borrowings from our stockholders and third-party debt and proceeds from the exercise of warrants. As of March 31, 2019, we had cash of $1,672. On an ongoing basis, we also seek to improve operating cash through trade receivables and payables management as well as inventory stocking levels. We used net cash in operating activities of $6,474 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred a net increase in borrowings on our senior credit facility of $1,983 to fund our operations and debt repayment of $63.

 

Our total liabilities increased by $5,310 to $120,437 at March 31, 2019 from $115,127 at December 31, 2018.  This increase in our total liabilities was primarily due to the increase of $898 in debt from amortization of debt discounts and the increase of $1,983 in borrowings from our senior credit facility. For discussion of our debt financings completed during the last three months ended March 31, 2019, see Notes 6 and 7 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report.

Net cash used in operating activities was $6,474 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as a result of our net loss of $8,784, a non-cash loss on change in derivative liabilities of $1,263, an increase of $1,054 in doubtful accounts receivable, other non-cash expenses totaling $460 net and a increasein net operating assets and liabilities of $467.  By comparison, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, net cash used in operating activities was $4,236 as a result of our net loss of $4,958, a non-cash gain on change in derivative liabilities of $1,818 as well as other non-cash expenses totaling $1,232 and an increase in net operating assets and liabilities of $1,308. See the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this Report for additional information.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,920 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily consisting of an increase in borrowings of $1,983 under our revolving credit facility, and repayment of debt of $63.

 

Ongoing Funding Requirements

As set forth above, we obtained additional debt financing in 2018 and the three months ended March 31, 2019 to support operations. It is possible that we may need additional funding to enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements.

 

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenues, we intend to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. There can be no assurance that any of those sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or relationships with third parties when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts; abandon our business strategy of growth through acquisitions; or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (Topic 350)” which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test that requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation.  A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.  The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.  Early adoption is permitted after January 1, 2017.  We do not expect the new guidance to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.

  

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which requires companies to recognize all leases as assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. This ASU retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases, and the classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the current accounting literature. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that under the lessee accounting model in Topic 842, the effect of leases in a consolidated statement of comprehensive income and a consolidated statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous GAAP. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements. Our status as an emerging growth company allowed us to defer the adoption until the year (and interim periods therein) beginning January 1, 2020.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. ASU 2014-09 amends the guidance for revenue recognition to replace numerous, industry-specific requirements and converges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. The amendment also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts with customers. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016; however, in July 2015, the FASB agreed to delay the effective date by one year. The proposed deferral may permit early adoption but would not allow adoption any earlier than the original effective date of the standard. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Our status as an emerging growth company allowed us to defer the adoption until the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2019, and interim reporting periods within the annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2020.  These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include the adoption of ASU 2014-09.  We will include the adoption of ASU 2014-09 in our annual reporting period ending December 31, 2019, and beginning in our interim reporting period for the three months ending March 31, 2020. We have reviewed this ASU and determined that it has no material impact to the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations, but will impact the Company's disclosures.

 

Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which we have adopted or will adopt, as applicable, we do not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations

   

Material Contractual Obligations

 

On December 15, 2016, we entered into an operating lease agreement for approximately 13,000 square feet of office space in Boca Raton, Florida.  The agreement expires in February 2026 and has a monthly base rent of $17 in year 1 to $21 in year 8. The commencement date is August 2017.

 

As of March 31, 2019, we have total debt of $88,358, of which $83,175 is considered to be related-party debt.  For discussion of our debt financings, see Notes 6 and 7 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report.

 

Effective February 6, 2013, we entered into an operating lease agreement for approximately 170,000 square feet of manufacturing, R&D, warehousing and shipping space, which includes roughly 30,000 square feet of office space, in American Fork, Utah. The agreement expires in February 2028 and has a monthly base rent of $60, provided that commencing on the five-year anniversary date thereafter, the base rent shall be increased by 10% over the base rent for the preceding five-year period.

 

Effective April 7, 2015, we entered into an operating lease agreement for approximately 31,000 square feet of office space in St. Petersburg, Florida. The agreement expires in April 2027 and has a monthly base rent of $59 for year 1 to $76 for year 12. On November 30, 2016, we entered into a sublease agreement to sublease half of the 31, 000 square feet of office space. The sublease term commenced on February 1, 2017 and expires on June 30, 2022.

On January 17, 2018, the Company entered into a Sublicense Agreement with 463IP Partners, LLC (“463IP”) in which 463IP granted an exclusive, worldwide, perpetual sublicense to the licensed patents, licensed processes and licensed technology with the right to use, make, sell, offer, import, export, practice and develop the licensed patents, licensed processes, licensed products and licensed technology in all of the countries and territories of the world and with respect to the direct marketing, sale, use and consumption efforts directed towards athletes. In return for this sublicense, the Company agreed to purchase certain minimum amounts of licensed product solely from 463IP or from a manufacturer approved by 463IP. The minimum requirements are 10,000 kilograms of blended licensed product during the first year of the Sublicense Agreement and 20,000 kilograms of blended licensed product during the second year of the Sublicense Agreement.

 

If purchased from 463IP, the price will be equivalent to the fully loaded cost to 463IP. Additionally, the Company will pay a royalty equal to $2.50 per kilogram of blended licensed product purchased regardless of whether it is purchased from 463IP or a manufacturer approved by 463IP. The per kilo fee shall be reduced by 50% under certain circumstances set forth in the Sublicense Agreement.

Item 4.          Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2019 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. On the basis of this review, our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2018 and into the first quarter of 2019, management identified material weaknesses in the selection and testing of our third-party logistics and fulfillment provider, whom the Company engaged to replace the Company's Utah manufacturing facility. The Company has determined that the third party logistics and fulfillment provider or 3PL does not issue reports pursuant to the Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagement No. 18 attestation standards. The Company should have designed and implemented the necessary internal controls to address the potential risks of using a 3PL who does not issue SSAE18 reports. The Company should have taken steps to design and implement controls around the receipt of inventory at the 3PL to ensure the quantities and description of inventory movements related to the 3PL. Additionally, the Company should take steps to obtain and review the appropriate SSAE 18 reports issued by the software company which the 3PL uses as its inventory management software. Management also identified a material weakness related to a lack of appropriate staffing in our accounting and information technology departments to address the Company's ability to continue to close the books both timely and accurately and to meet internal control documentation requirements. Prior normal staffing turnover along with technical accounting issues and the Company's change to a 3PL impacted the Company's ability to react to technical accounting matters encountered.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

To remediate the material weaknesses described above, management implemented several initiatives, including but not limited to the following:

 

 

● 

To address the material weakness related to Inventory Controls, the Company is designing and implementing controls around the receipt of inventory at the 3PL to ensure the quantities and descriptions of inventory movements are input accurately. The Company is looking to conduct monthly sampling of outgoing shipping documents and validate that the shipment date per the 3PL matches to the shipment date per the 3rd party freight carrier’s documents to corroborate the 3PL’s shipping records and avoid placing inadvertent reliance on the 3PL’s shipping records. Additionally, the Company will reconcile inventory per the general ledger to the 3PL records on a regular basis to ensure inventory is recorded completely and accurately. Management plans to observe the annual physical inventory count performed by the 3PL to ensure the existence of inventory and that the inventory value is not misstated. Also, the Company will consider observing random cycle counts performed throughout the year. The Company is also working to obtain and review the SSAE 18 SOC 1 report issued by the software company which the 3PL uses as its inventory management software. These controls and documentation will also be considered as part of the ongoing improvement plan of the Company’s enterprise resource system.

     
  ●  To address the material weakness related to appropriate staffing, the Company is looking to hire, train and retain the appropriate staffing in the accounting and information technology departments including technical accountants to support and alleviate the work load on the current team. The additional staffing should proactively identify and account for transactions of a complex or non-routine nature. Furthermore, the additional staffing should be responsible for managing the day-to-day responsibilities of Sarbanes Oxley compliance. The additional staffing should also reduce inefficiencies and address documenting evidence of operating effectiveness for business process controls and information technology general controls.
     
  ●  The Company has engaged and worked throughout the year with our independent Sarbanes Oxley Act consultant to help improve the overall testing of our system of internal control over financial reporting. We promptly identified and refined controls subsequent to the year-end and prior to the filing date of the report on Form 10-K. Specifically, we were able to:

 

Refine our key controls and compensating control procedures to properly address inventory reporting risks.

 

Implement periodic control validation and testing to ensure controls continue to operate consistently and as designed.

 

Hire, assign and train staffing within the accounting department to be responsible for managing the day-to-day responsibilities of maintaining appropriate evidence of operating effectiveness of key controls over financial reporting.

 

Other than as described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurances. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but we cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.          Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. As of March 31, 2019, there were no legal proceedings that could have a material impact on the Company’s finances.

 

Item 1A.       Risk Factors.

 

Risks and uncertainties that, if they were to occur, could materially adversely affect our business or cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report and other public statements were set forth in the “Item 1A Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 16, 2019.

 

Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial conditions and/or operating results.
