PART I
Our Company
We are a customer-centric company that positions itself as a value-added, trusted partner in developing superior image solutions through our lighting, graphics, and technology capabilities. Our products and services include digital signage, printed and structural graphics, and electrical signage capabilities, a wide variety of high quality indoor and outdoor lighting products, lighting control systems, and related professional services including engineering, installation, and project management. We also provide graphics and lighting products on a stand-alone basis. Our company is the leading provider of corporate visual image solutions to the petroleum / convenience store industry. We use this leadership position to penetrate national retailers and multi-site retailers, including quick service and casual restaurants, retail chain stores and automobile dealerships, located primarily in the United States. We seek to expand our market share in the traditional commercial / industrial lighting market by combining our LED product innovation and lighting control solutions utilizing the latest technology along with a strong emphasis on high service levels and market focused solutions. Our solutions are targeted at both renovation and new construction markets. We have comprehensive design and product development capabilities for targeted markets. We also provide a variety of lighting control solutions which allow our customers to reduce energy and maintenance costs. In addition to designing and producing traditional signage, we design and integrate digital signage technology where customers are provided a turnkey solution that includes design, software, hardware content development, implementation, service and support.
We believe that national retailers and other companies in the markets we serve are increasingly seeking single-source suppliers with the project management skills and service expertise necessary to execute a comprehensive visual image program. The integration of our graphics, lighting, and technology coupled with our professional services capabilities allows our customers to outsource to us the development of an entire visual image program from the planning and design stage through installation. Our approach is to combine our lighting products and custom graphics applications utilizing the latest technology along with our professional service capabilities to create complete customer-focused visual image solutions. We also offer our lighting products and graphics elements on a stand-alone basis to service our existing image solutions customers, to establish a presence in a new market or to create a relationship with a new customer. We believe that our ability to combine lighting, graphics, and technology coupled with professional services into a comprehensive visual image solution differentiates us from our competitors who offer only stand-alone products for lighting or graphics and who lack professional services offerings. During the past several years, we have continued to enhance our ability to provide comprehensive corporate visual image solutions by adding additional graphics capabilities such as digital signage and media content management, wireless lighting control systems, new and innovative LED lighting products and professional services through acquisitions and internal development.
Our focus on product development and innovation creates products that are essential components of our customers’ corporate visual image strategy. Our spending on research and development was $6.0 million in fiscal 2018, $5.7 million in fiscal 2017, and $5.5 million in fiscal 2016. We develop and manufacture lighting including solid-state LED lighting, lighting control systems, and graphics and distribute them through an extensive multi-channel distribution network that allows us to effectively service our target markets. Customers include dealers, franchisee and national corporate accounts represented by the following companies: BP, Chevron Texaco, ExxonMobil, Shell, Phillips 66, Burger King, Dairy Queen, Taco Bell, Wendy’s, Wal-Mart Stores, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Nissan, Toyota, Sports Clips, AAA, Panda Express, and SunTrust Bank.
We also focus on the elimination of non-value added activities throughout our organization through the LSI Business System, a Lean Management System utilizing kaizen events and lean tools to drive continuous improvement in our processes. The LSI Business System improves shareholder value by increasing customer satisfaction and eliminating waste, both of which will improve the bottom line. We are committed to this company-wide initiative through employee education and training with the ultimate goal to make it part of the corporate culture and way of thinking of all employees.
Our business is organized as follows: the Lighting Segment, which represented 76% of our fiscal 2018 net sales and the Graphics Segment, which represented 24% of our fiscal 2018 net sales. See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 45 of this Form 10-K for additional information on business segments. Net sales by segment are as follows (in thousands):

Lighting Segment
Our Lighting Segment manufactures and markets outdoor and indoor lighting and lighting controls for the commercial, industrial and multi-site retail markets including the petroleum / convenience store, quick-service, and automotive markets. Our products are designed and manufactured to provide maximum value and meet the high-quality, competitively-priced product requirements of the markets we serve. We generally avoid specialty or custom-designed, low-volume products for single order opportunities. Our concentration is on our high-volume, standard product lines that meet our customers’ needs. By focusing our product offerings, we achieve significant manufacturing and cost efficiencies.
Our lighting fixtures, poles and brackets are produced in a variety of designs, styles and finishes. Important functional variations include types of mounting, such as pole, bracket and surface, and the nature of the light requirement, such as interior and exterior down-lighting, wall-wash lighting, canopy lighting, flood-lighting, area lighting and security lighting. Our engineering staff performs photometric analyses and wind load safety studies for all light fixtures and also designs our fixtures and lighting systems. Our lighting products utilize a variety of different light sources, with the primary light source being solid-state LED. The major products and services offered within our lighting segment include: exterior area lighting, interior lighting, canopy lighting, landscape lighting, lighting controls, light poles, lighting system design, and photometric layouts. All of our products are designed for performance, reliability, ease of installation and service, as well as attractive appearance. The Company also has a focus on designing lighting system solutions and implementing strategies related to energy savings in substantially all markets served.
We offer our customers expertise in developing and utilizing high-performance solid-state LED solutions, which when combined with the Company’s lighting fixture expertise and technology, has the potential to result in a broad spectrum of white light LED fixtures that offer equivalent or improved lighting performance with significant energy and maintenance savings as compared to the present metal halide and fluorescent lighting fixtures.
Graphics Segment
Our Graphics Segment manufactures and sells exterior and interior visual image elements related to signage and graphics, including integrated digital signage solutions and menu boards. The major products and services offered within our Graphics Segment include the following: signage and canopy graphics, pump dispenser graphics, building fascia graphics, electrical signage, decals, interior signage and marketing graphics, aisle markers, wall mural graphics, fleet graphics, video boards, menu boards and digital signage and media content management. Our Company also manages and executes the implementation of large rollout programs. These products are used in graphics displays and visual image programs in several markets, including the petroleum / convenience store market, quick-service restaurant, grocery, and multi-site retail operations. Our extensive lighting and graphics expertise, product offering, visual image solution implementation capabilities and other professional services represent significant competitive advantages. We work with corporations and design firms to establish and implement cost effective corporate visual image programs to advance our customer’s brand. Increasingly, we have become the primary supplier of exterior and interior graphics for our customers. We also offer installation management services for those customers who require the installation of interior or exterior products (utilizing pre-qualified independent subcontractors throughout the United States).
Our business can be significantly impacted by participation in a customer’s “image conversion program,” especially if it were to involve a “roll out” of that new image to a significant number of that customer’s and its franchisees’ retail sites. The impact to our business can be very positive with growth in net sales and profitability when we are engaged in an image conversion program. This can be followed in subsequent periods by lesser amounts of business or negative comparisons following completion of an image conversion program, unless we are successful in replacing that completed business with participation in new image conversion programs of similar size with one or more customers. An image conversion program can potentially involve any or all of the following improvements, changes or refurbishments at a customer’s retail site: interior or exterior lighting (see discussion above about our lighting segment), interior or exterior store signage and graphics, and installation of these products in both the prototype and roll out phases of their program.
Our Competitive Strengths
Single Source Comprehensive Visual Image Solution Provider.
We believe that we are the only company serving our target markets that combines digital signage and graphics capabilities, lighting products and installation implementation capabilities to create comprehensive image solutions. We believe that our position as a single-source provider creates a competitive advantage over competitors who can only address either the lighting or the graphics component of a customer’s corporate visual image program. Using our broad visual image solutions capabilities, our customers can maintain complete control over the creation of their visual image programs while avoiding the added complexity of coordinating separate lighting and graphics suppliers and service providers. We can use high technology software to produce computer-generated virtual prototypes of a customer’s new or improved retail site image. We believe that these capabilities are unique to our target markets and they allow our customers to make educated, cost-effective decisions quickly.
Proven Ability to Penetrate Target Markets.
We have grown our business by establishing a leadership position in many of the markets we serve, including petroleum / convenience stores, automobile dealerships and specialty retailers. Although our relationship with our customers may begin with the need for a single product or service, we leverage our broad product and service offering to identify additional products and solutions. We promote the combination of graphics, lighting, and technology, along with image element offerings, and services to create comprehensive solutions for our customers.
Focus on Product Innovation
.
We believe that our ability to successfully identify, develop and patent new products has allowed us to expand our market opportunity and enhance our market position. Our product innovation initiatives are designed to increase the value of our product offering by addressing the needs of our customers and target markets through retrofit enhancements to existing products or the development of new products. New product development includes developing an expanding portfolio of technology patents. We believe our product innovation process creates value for our customers by producing products that offer energy efficiency, low maintenance requirements and long-term operating performance at competitive prices based upon the latest technologies available.
Strong Relationships with our Customers.
We have used our innovative products and high-quality services to develop close, long-standing relationships with a large number of our customers. Many of our customers are recognized among the leaders in their respective markets, including customers such as BP, Chevron Texaco, ExxonMobil, Shell, Phillips 66, Burger King, Dairy Queen, Taco Bell, Wendy’s, Wal-Mart Stores, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Nissan, Toyota, Sports Clips, AAA, Panda Express, and SunTrust Bank. Their use of our products and services raises the visibility of our capabilities and facilitates the acceptance of our products and services in their markets. Within each of these markets, our ability to be a single source provider of image solutions often creates repeat business opportunities through corporate reimaging programs. We have served some of our customers since our inception in 1976.
An Appropriately Capitalized
Balance Sheet
. As part of our long-term operating strategy, we believe the Company maintains a conservative capital structure. With a solid equity base, we are able to preserve operating flexibility in times of industry expansion and contraction. In the current business environment, a strong balance sheet demonstrates financial viability to our existing and targeted customers. In addition, a strong balance sheet enables us to invest in the company through research and development and allows the Company to invest in capital projects that support the Company’s growth.
Aggressive Use of
Visual
Marketing Center
s
.
The capabilities of our Image Center and I-Zone Marketing Centers provide us with a distinct competitive advantage to demonstrate the effectiveness of integrating graphics, lighting, and technology into a complete corporate visual image program. These centers, which demonstrate the depth and breadth of our product and service offerings, have become an effective component of our sales process.
Maintain our Vertically Integrated Business Model.
Our Company balances its strength as a vertically integrated manufacturer with its sourcing of purchased finished goods through the global supply chain. We focus on developing lighting and graphics products coupled with technology, and outsource certain non-core processes and product components as necessary.
Commitment to Continuous Improvement
.
We are committed to a philosophy of continuous improvement through the LSI Business System, which is a Lean Management System utilizing Kaizen events and lean tools to identify and eliminate waste and increase customer satisfaction with the ultimate goal to improve shareholder value.
Sales, Marketing and Customers
Sales:
Our lighting products including lighting controls, are sold primarily throughout the United States, but also in Canada, Australia, and Latin America (less than 5% of consolidated net sales are outside the United States) using a combination of regional sales managers and independent sales representatives serving primarily the commercial / industrial market along with several of the other markets we serve. LSI has traditionally been a project based business, quoting and receiving orders as a preferred vendor for product sales to multiple end-users, including customer-owned as well as franchised and licensed dealer operations. With the acquisition of Atlas, we now market and sell standard product to stocking distributors, who subsequently provide product to electrical contractors and end users for a variety of lighting applications. Our graphics products, which in many instances are program-driven, are sold primarily through our own sales force. Our marketing approach and means of distribution vary by product line and by type of market.
Sales are developed through a wide variety of contacts such as, but not limited to, national retail marketers, branded product companies, franchise and dealer operations. In addition, sales are also achieved through recommendations from local architects, engineers, petroleum and electrical distributors and contractors. The Company utilizes the latest technology to track sales leads and customer quotes with the ultimate goal to turn them into orders from our customers. Our sales are partially seasonal as installation of outdoor lighting and graphic systems in the northern states decreases during the winter months.
Marketing:
The capabilities of our Image Center and I-Zone Marketing Centers are important parts of our sales process. These centers, unique within the lighting and graphics industry, are facilities that can produce a computer-generated virtual prototype of a customer’s facility on a large screen through the combination of high technology software and audio/visual presentation. The I-Zone marketing center is a digitally controlled facility containing a large solid-state LED video screen and several displays that showcase our LED technology and LED products. With these capabilities, our customers can instantly explore a wide variety of lighting and graphics alternatives to develop consistent day and nighttime images. These centers give our customers more options, greater control, and more effective time utilization in the development of lighting, graphics and visual image solutions, all with much less expense than traditional prototyping. In addition to being cost and time effective for our customers, we believe that the capabilities of these marketing centers contribute to the development of the best solution for our customers’ needs.
The Image and I-Zone marketing centers also contain comprehensive indoor and outdoor product display areas that allow our customers to see many of our products and services in one setting. This aids our customers in making quick and effective lighting and graphic design decisions through hands-on product demonstrations and side-by-side comparisons. More importantly, these capabilities allow us to expand our customer’s interest from just a single product into other products and solutions. We believe that the capabilities of these centers have further enhanced our position as a highly qualified outsourcing partner capable of guiding a customer through image alternatives utilizing our lighting and graphics products and services. We believe this capability distinguishes us from our competitors and will become increasingly beneficial in attracting additional customers.
In addition to the capabilities of our Image and I-Zone Marketing Centers, the Company markets its products and service capabilities to end users in multiple channels through a broad spectrum of marketing and promotional methods, including direct customer contact, trade shows, on-site training, print advertising in industry publications, product brochures and other literature, as well as the internet and social media.
Manufacturing and Operations
We design, engineer and manufacture most of our lighting and graphics products through utilizing lean manufacturing principals. We periodically invest in new machinery and equipment utilizing the latest technology in order to leverage the manufacturing efficiencies gained from our high-volume production. When appropriate, we utilize alliances with domestic and international vendors to outsource certain products and components. The majority of products and related software are engineered, designed and final-assembled by the Company, while a portion of the manufacturing has been performed by select qualified vendors. We are not dependent on any one supplier for critical component parts.
The principal raw materials and purchased components used in the manufacturing of our products are steel, aluminum, aluminum castings, fabrications, LEDs, power supplies, powder paint, steel tubing, wire harnesses, acrylic, silicon and glass lenses, inks, various graphics substrates such as foam board and vinyls, and digital screens. We source these materials and components from a variety of suppliers. Although an interruption of these supplies and components could disrupt our operations, we believe generally that alternative sources of supply exist and could be readily arranged. We strive to reduce price volatility in our purchases of raw materials and components through annual contracts with strategic suppliers. The Company continued to experience some of the inflationary pressures in certain commodities experienced in fiscal 2017. Our Lighting operations generally carry a certain level of sub-assemblies and finished goods inventory to meet quick delivery requirements. Most lighting products are made to order and shipped shortly after they are manufactured. Our Graphics operations manufacture custom graphics products for customers who require us to stock certain amounts of finished goods in exchange for their commitment to that inventory. Our digital signage business requires an investment in digital screens in order to meet the demands of a large roll-out program. In some Graphics programs, customers also give us a cash advance for the inventory that we stock for them. The Company’s operations dealing with LED products generally carry LED and LED component inventory due to longer lead times.
We currently operate out of eleven manufacturing, office and warehouse facilities in six U.S. states.
Most of our operations received ISO 9001:2015 Certification thru ANAB (Cert# 5369-Eagle Registrations Inc) with plans to certify the Company’s other facilities. Our manufacturing operations are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements relating to environmental protection and occupational health and safety. We do not expect to incur material capital expenditures with regard to these matters and believe our facilities are in compliance with such regulations.
Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment
There was no impairment of the Company’s goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets in fiscal year 2016. The Company recorded a $479,000 impairment of a finite-lived intangible asset in the Graphics Segment in fiscal year 2017 and recorded a $28,000,000 impairment of goodwill in the Lighting Segment in fiscal year 2018.
C
ompetition
We experience strong competition in all segments of our business, and in all markets served by our product lines. Although we have many competitors, some of which have greater financial and other resources, we do not compete with the same companies across our entire product and service offerings. We believe product quality and performance, price, customer service, prompt delivery, and reputation to be important competitive factors. We also have several product and process patents which have been obtained in the normal course of business which provide a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
Recent Developments
In August 2018, the Company announced that Wilfred (Bill) T. O’Gara has been appointed Chairman of the Board by the Board of Directors, succeeding Gary P. Kreider, who has served as Chairman of the Board since November, 2014. Mr. Kreider will remain a board member until a successor director is appointed, at which time Mr. Kreider intends to retire from the board. The Company also announced that Ronald D. Brown, current CEO, has been nominated by the Board to stand for election as a Director at the November 6
th
, 2018 annual shareholders’ meeting.
Also in August 2018, the Company announced organization and leadership changes. LSI’s structure is being aligned around its key markets and customers. This will enable the Company to better package its technology, products and services in a unique way to continue to provide its customers with innovative solutions. This organization change will allow the Company to grow the business by improving and expanding its capabilities to better serve its customers in targeted markets and in addition to developing and acquiring technologies, products and services to improve the experience for its customers’ customers.
In conjunction with this new organization structure, the Company is eliminating the positions of President of LSI Lighting, President of Atlas Lighting and President of LSI Graphics, as well as the separate organizations aligned around the products each business produced and sold. The Company is now organizing as one LSI organization, focused on serving key customer markets with its full package of capabilities. The Company also made several structural leadership changes in order to align the entire organization and better leverage LSI’s full scope of capabilities (lighting, graphics, digital signage, control and IoT technologies).
Additional Information
Our sales are partially seasonal as installation of outdoor lighting and graphic systems in the northern states lessens during the harshest winter months. We had a backlog of orders, which we believe to be firm, of $28.8 million and $30.2 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. All orders are expected to be shippable or installed within twelve months.
We have 1,223 full-time employees and 123 agency employees as of June 30, 2018. We offer a comprehensive compensation and benefits program to our employees, including competitive wages, medical and dental insurance, an incentive plan that is based upon the achievement of the Company’s business plan goals, and a 401(k) retirement savings plan and, for certain employees, a nonqualified deferred compensation plan and an equity based incentive plan.
We file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. You may read and copy any materials filed with the SEC at its public reference room at 100 F.

We make available free of charge through our internet website our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as soon as reasonably practical after we electronically file them with the SEC. LSI is not including the other information contained on its website as part of or incorporating it by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
LSI Industries Inc. is an Ohio corporation, incorporated in 1976.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the following factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition, cash flows or future results. Any one of these factors could cause the Company’s actual results to vary materially from recent results or from anticipated future results. The risks described below are not the only risks facing our Company. 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 condition and/or operating results.
Lower levels of economic activity in our end markets could adversely affect our operating results.
Our businesses operate in several market segments including, but not limited to, commercial, industrial, retail, petroleum / convenience store and automotive. Operating results can be negatively impacted by volatility in these markets. Future downturns in any of the markets we serve could adversely affect our overall sales and profitability.
The markets in which we operate are subject to competitive pressures that could affect selling prices, and therefore could adversely affect our operating results.
Our businesses operate in markets that are highly competitive, and we compete on the basis of price, quality, service and/or brand name across the industries and markets served. Some of our competitors for certain products, primarily in the Lighting Segment, have greater sales, assets and financial resources. Some of our competitors are based in foreign countries and have cost structures and prices in foreign currencies. Accordingly, currency fluctuations could cause our U.S. dollar-priced products to be less competitive than our competitors’ products which are priced in other currencies. Competitive pressures could affect prices we charge our customers or demand for our products, which could adversely affect our operating results. Additionally, customers for our products may attempt to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase in order to reduce the size and diversity of their inventories and their transaction costs. To remain competitive, we will need to invest continuously in research and development, manufacturing, marketing, customer service and support, and our distribution networks. We may not have sufficient resources to continue to make such investments and we may be unable to maintain our competitive position.
Our operating results may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic
, political
and market conditions.
Economic and political conditions worldwide have from time to time contributed to slowdowns in our industry at large, as well as to the specific segments and markets in which we operate. When combined with ongoing customer consolidation activity and periodic manufacturing and inventory initiatives, an uncertain macro-economic and political climate, including but not limited to the effects of possible weakness in domestic and foreign financial and credit markets, could lead to reduced demand from our customers and increased price competition for our products, increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories and uncollectible receivables, and higher overhead costs as a percentage of revenue. If the markets in which we participate experience further economic downturns, as well as a slow recovery period, this could negatively impact our sales and revenue generation, margins and operating expenses, and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Price increases or significant shortages of raw materials and components could adversely affect our operating margin.
The Company purchases large quantities of raw materials and components such as steel, aluminum, LEDs, electronic components, plastic lenses, glass lenses, vinyls, inks, and corrugated cartons. Materials comprise the largest component of costs, representing approximately 61% and 60% of the cost of sales in 2018 and 2017, respectively. While we have multiple sources of supply for most of our material requirements, significant shortages could disrupt the supply of raw materials. Further significant tariffs or increases in the price of these raw materials and components could further increase the Company’s operating costs and materially adversely affect margins. Although the Company attempts to pass along increased costs in the form of price increases to customers, the Company may be unsuccessful in doing so for competitive reasons. Even when price increases are successful, the timing of such price increases may lag significantly behind the incurrence of higher costs. On occasion, there are selected electronic component parts and certain other parts shortages in the market place, some of which have affected the Company’s manufacturing operations and shipment schedules even though multiple suppliers may be available. The lead times of these suppliers can increase and the prices of some of these parts have increased during periods of shortages.
We have a concentration of net sales to the petroleum / convenience store market, and any substantial change in this market could have an
adverse effect
on our business.
Approximately 30% of our net sales in fiscal year 2018 are concentrated in the petroleum / convenience store market. Sales to this market segment are dependent upon the general conditions prevailing in and the profitability of the petroleum and convenience store industries and general market conditions. Our petroleum market business can be subject to reactions by the petroleum industry to world political events, particularly those in the Middle East, and to the price and supply of oil. Major disruptions in the petroleum industry generally result in a curtailment of retail marketing efforts, including expansion and refurbishing of retail outlets, by the petroleum industry and adversely affect our business. Any substantial change in purchasing decisions by one or more of our larger customers whether due to actions by our competitors, customer financial constraints, industry factors or otherwise, could have an adverse effect on our business.
The Company may pursue future growth through strategic acquisitions, alliances, or investments, which may not yield anticipated benefits.
The Company has strengthened its business through strategic acquisitions, alliances, and investments and may continue to do so as opportunities arise in the future. Such investments have been and may be start-up or development stage entities. The Company will benefit from such activity only to the extent that it can effectively leverage and integrate the assets or capabilities of the acquired businesses and alliances including, but not limited to, personnel, technology, and operating processes. Moreover, unanticipated events, negative revisions to valuation assumptions and estimates, diversions of resources and management’s attention from other business concerns, and difficulties in attaining synergies, among other factors, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to recover initial and subsequent investments, particularly those related to acquired goodwill and intangible assets or non-controlling interests. In addition, such investment transactions may limit the Company’s ability to invest in other activities, which could be more profitable or advantageous.
If we do not develop the appropriate new products o
r
i
f customers do not accept new products, we could experience a loss of competitive position which could adversely affect future revenues.
The Company is committed to product innovation on a timely basis to meet customer demands. Development of new products for targeted markets requires the Company to develop or otherwise leverage leading technologies in a cost-effective and timely manner. Failure to meet these changing demands could result in a loss of competitive position and seriously impact future revenues. Products or technologies developed by others may render the Company’s products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive. A fundamental shift in technologies in key product markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and competitive position within the industry. More specifically, the development of new or enhanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring the anticipation of technological and market trends. Rapidly changing product technologies could adversely impact operating results due to potential technological obsolescence of certain inventories or increased warranty expense related to newly developed LED lighting products. We may experience design, manufacturing, marketing or other difficulties, such as an inability to attract a sufficient number of experienced engineers that could delay or prevent our development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhancements and result in unexpected expenses. Such difficulties could cause us to lose business from our customers and could adversely affect our competitive position. In addition, added expenses could decrease the profitability associated with those products that do not gain market acceptance.
Our business is cyclical and seasonal, and in downward economic cycles our operating profits and cash flows could be adversely affected.
Historically, sales of our products have been subject to cyclical variations caused by changes in general economic conditions. Our revenues in our third quarter ending March 31 are also affected by the impact of weather on construction and installation programs and the annual budget cycles of major customers. The demand for our products reflects the capital investment decisions of our customers, which depend upon the general economic conditions of the markets that our customers serve, including, particularly, the petroleum and convenience store industries. During periods of expansion in construction and industrial activity, we generally have benefited from increased demand for our products. Conversely, downward economic cycles in these industries result in reductions in sales and pricing of our products, which may reduce our profits and cash flow. During economic downturns, customers also tend to delay purchases of new products. The cyclical and seasonal nature of our business could at times adversely affect our liquidity and financial results.
A loss of key personnel or inability to attract qualified personnel could have an
adverse effect
on our operating results.
The Company’s future success depends on the ability to attract and retain highly skilled technical, managerial, marketing and finance personnel, and, to a significant extent, upon the efforts and abilities of senior management. The Company’s management philosophy of cost-control results in a lean workforce. Future success of the Company will depend on, among other factors, the ability to attract and retain other qualified personnel, particularly management, research and development engineers and technical sales professionals. The loss of the services of any key employees or the failure to attract or retain other qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.
The costs of litigation and compliance with environmental regulations, if significantly increased, could have an
adverse effect
on our operating profits.
We are, and may in the future be, a party to any number of legal proceedings and claims, including those involving patent litigation, product liability, employment matters, and environmental matters, which could be significant. Given the inherent uncertainty of litigation, we can offer no assurance that existing litigation or a future adverse development will not have a material adverse impact. We are also subject to various laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and the discharge of materials into the environment, and it could potentially be possible we could incur substantial costs as a result of the noncompliance with or liability for clean up or other costs or damages under environmental laws.
The turnover of
independent
commissioned sales representatives could cause a significant disruption in sales volume.
Commissioned sales representatives are critical to generating business in the Lighting Segment. From time to time, commissioned sales representatives representing a particular region resign or are terminated and replaced with new commissioned sales representatives. During this period of transition from the previous agency to the new one, sales in the particular region will likely fall as business is disrupted. It may take several months for the new sales representative to generate sales that will equal or exceed the previous sales representative. There is also the risk that the new sales agency will not attain the sales volume of the previous agency. These sales representative changes may occur individually as one agency is replaced due to lack of performance. On the other hand, these sales representative changes can be widespread as a result of the competitive nature of the lighting industry as LSI and its competition vie for the strongest sales agency in a particular region.
The Company may be unable to sustain significant customer and/or channel partner relationships.
Relationships with customers are directly impacted by the Company’s ability to deliver quality products and services. Although no individual customer exceeded 10% of sales during the current fiscal year, the loss of or a substantial decrease in the volume of purchases by certain large customers could harm the Company in a meaningful manner. The Company has relationships with channel partners such as electrical distributors, home improvement retailers, independent sales agencies, system integrators, and value-added resellers. While the Company maintains positive, and in many cases long-term relationships with these channel partners, the loss of a number of channel partners or substantial decrease in the volume of purchases from a major channel partner or group of channel partners could adversely affect the Company.
Changes in
a
customer’s demands and commitment
to
proprietary inventory could result in significant inventory write-offs
.
Upgrading or replacing a customer’s current image requires the manufacture of inventory that is specific to the particular customer. This is particularly true in the Graphics Segment. In as many instances as possible, we require a commitment from the customer before the inventory is produced. Our request for a commitment can range from a single site or store to a large roll-out program involving many sites or stores. The risk does exist that a customer cannot or will not honor its commitment to us. The reasons a customer cannot or will not honor its commitment can range from the bankruptcy of the customer, to the change in the image during the roll-out program, to canceling the program before its completion and before the inventory is sold to the customer. In each of these instances, we could be left with significant amounts of inventory required to support the customer’s re-imaging. While all efforts are made to hold the customer accountable for its commitment, there is the risk that a significant amount of inventory could be deemed obsolete or no longer usable which could result in significant inventory write-offs.
If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property, we may lose some of our competitive advantage.
Our success is determined in part by our ability to obtain United States and foreign patent protection for our technology and to preserve our trade secrets. Our ability to compete and the ability of our business to grow could suffer if our intellectual property rights are not adequately protected. There can be no assurance that our patent applications will result in patents being issued or that current or additional patents will afford protection against competitors. We rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret protection and contractual rights to establish and protect our intellectual property. Failure of our patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret protection, non-disclosure agreements and other measures to provide protection of our technology and our intellectual property rights could enable our competitors to more effectively compete with us and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our trade secrets and proprietary know-how may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by others. No guarantee can be given that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information or techniques, or otherwise gain access to our proprietary technology.
Sudden or unexpected changes in a custom
er’s
creditworthiness could result in significant accounts receivable write-offs.
The Company takes a conservative approach when extending credit to its customers. Customers are granted an appropriate credit limit based upon the due diligence performed on the customer which includes, among other things, the review of the company’s financial statements and banking information, various credit checks, and payment history the customer has with the Company. At any given time, the Company can have a significant amount of credit exposure with its larger customers. While the Company is frequently monitoring its outstanding receivables with its customers, the likelihood does exist that a customer with large credit exposure is unable to make payment on its outstanding receivables which could result in a significant write-off of accounts receivable.
Failure of the Company’s operating or information system or a compromise of security with respect to its operating system or portable electronic devices could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition or the effectiveness of internal controls over operations and financial reporting.
Information technology system failures, network disruptions and breaches of data security caused by such factors, including, but not limited to, earthquakes, fire, theft, fraud, malicious attack or other causes could disrupt the Company’s operations by causing delays or cancellation of customer orders, negatively affecting the Company’s online offerings and services, impeding the manufacture or shipment of products, processing transactions and reporting financial results, resulting in the unintentional disclosure of customer or Company information, or damage to the Company’s reputation. While management has taken steps to address these concerns by implementing network security and internal control measures, there can be no assurance that a system failure or loss or data security breach will not materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and operating results.
If the Company’s products are improperly designed, manufactured, packaged, or labeled, the Company may need to recall those items, may have increased warranty costs, and could be the target of product liability claims.
The Company may need to recall products if they are improperly designed, manufactured, packaged, or labeled, and the Company does not maintain insurance for such recall events. Many of the Company's products and solutions have become more complex in recent years and include more sophisticated and sensitive electronic components. The Company has increasingly manufactured certain of those components and products in its own facilities. The Company has previously initiated product recalls as a result of potentially faulty components, assembly, installation, and packaging of its products. Widespread product recalls could result in significant losses due to the costs of a recall, the destruction of product inventory, penalties, and lost sales due to the unavailability of a product for a period of time. In addition, products developed by the Company that incorporate new technologies, such as LED technology, generally provide for more extensive warranty protection which may result in higher costs if warranty claims on these products are higher than historical amounts. The Company may also be liable if the use of any of its products causes harm, and could suffer losses from a significant product liability judgment against the Company in excess of its insurance limits. The Company may not be able to obtain indemnity or reimbursement from its suppliers or other third parties for the warranty costs or liabilities associated with its products. A significant product recall, warranty claim, or product liability case could also result in adverse publicity, damage to the Company’s reputation, and a loss of consumer confidence in its products.

ITEM 7A.
|
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in variable interest rates, changes in prices of raw materials and component parts, and changes in foreign currency translation rates. Each of these risks is discussed below.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company earns interest income on its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments (if any) and pays interest expense on its debt (if any). Because of variable interest rates, the Company is exposed to the risk of interest rate fluctuations, which impact interest income, interest expense, and cash flows.
The Company’s $100,000,000 line of credit is subject to interest rate fluctuations, should the Company borrow certain amounts on this line of credit. Additionally, the Company expects to generate cash from its operations that will subsequently be used to pay down as much of the debt (if any is outstanding) as possible or invest cash in short-term investments (if no debt is outstanding), while still funding the growth of the Company.
Raw Material Price Risk
The Company purchases large quantities of raw materials and components, mainly steel, aluminum, castings, fabrications, LEDs, electronic components, power supplies, powder paint, plastic, silicon and glass lenses, vinyls, inks, and corrugated cartons. The Company’s operating results could be affected by the availability and price fluctuations of these materials. The Company’s strategic sourcing plans include mitigating risk by utilizing multiple suppliers for a commodity to avoid significant dependence on any single supplier. While the possibility does exist of industry-wide supply shortages at any time in the future, the Company has not experienced any significant supply problems in recent years. Price risk for these materials is related to price increases in commodity items that affect all users of the materials, including the Company’s competitors. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the raw material component of cost of goods sold subject to price risk was approximately $155 million. The Company does not actively hedge or use derivative instruments to manage its risk in this area. The Company does, however, seek and qualify new suppliers, negotiate with existing suppliers, and arranges stocking agreements to mitigate risk of supply and price increases. On occasion, the Company’s Lighting Segment has announced price increases with customers in order to offset raw material price increases and to mitigate the impact of trade tariffs. In fiscal 2018, the Company announced price increases for all lighting and pole products in order to attempt to offset material price inflation in certain commodities. The price increases with customers did not fully offset the commodity price increases. The Company’s Graphics Segment generally establishes new sales prices, reflective of the then current raw material prices, for each custom graphics program as it begins.
Foreign Currency Translation Risk
The Company has essentially no foreign currency risk as all operations are conducted in U.S. dollars.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required 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 is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We conducted, under the supervision of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are fairly presented in all material respects in accordance with U.S GAAP, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have certified that, based on their knowledge, the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, statement of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the periods presented in this report.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing on page 33 of this report is incorporated by reference in this Item 9A.
Changes in Internal Control
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2018, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. See Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting on page 34. In January 2018, the Company hired PricewaterhouseCoopers to serve as its internal auditors.

Summary Comments
Fiscal 2018 net sales of $342,023,000 increased $10.6 million or 3.2% as compared to fiscal 2017 net sales of $331,392,000. Net sales were favorably influenced by increased net sales of the Lighting Segment (up $1.6 million or 0.6%) and increased net sales of the Graphics Segment (up $9.0 million or 12.5%). Comparable fiscal 2018 net sales excluding net sales from Atlas decreased by $19.4 million or 6.2% compared to fiscal 2017 net sales. The Company acquired Atlas on February 21, 2017.
Fiscal 2018 operating loss of $(21,652,000) represents a $25.3 million change from operating income of $3,609,000 in fiscal 2017. The change from operating income in fiscal 2017 to an operating loss in fiscal 2018 is primarily the result of a $28 million goodwill impairment and $3.1 million of transition and re-alignment costs related to the departure of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, with both events occurring in fiscal 2018 with no corresponding event in fiscal 2017. The Company also recorded a $479,000 impairment of an intangible asset, acquisition deal costs of $1,608,000 and a fair market write-up of inventory of $155,000 related to the acquisition of Atlas Lighting Products, Inc., with all such events occurring in fiscal 2017 with no corresponding events in fiscal 2018. Also in fiscal 2017 the Company recorded restructuring cost of $412,000 ($1,503,000 was expensed in Cost of Products Sold and a net gain of $1,091,000, primarily resulting from the gain on sale of a manufacturing facility, was recorded in Selling and Administrative expenses), and plant closure costs related to an inventory write-down of $485,000 as the Company exited the manufacturing of fluorescent lighting fixtures -- combining to a net total expense of $897,000.
Fiscal 2017 net sales of $331,392,000 increased $9.2 million or 2.9% as compared to fiscal 2016 net sales of $322,196,000. Net sales were favorably influenced by increased net sales of the Lighting Segment (up $14.8 million or 6.0%). Net sales were unfavorably influenced by net sales of the Graphics Segment (down $5.6 million or 7.1%). The operating results of Atlas beginning February 21, 2017 have been included in the Company’s consolidated operating results in the Lighting Segment results. Atlas contributed $17.8 million to net sales during fiscal 2017 since the date of acquisition.
Fiscal 2017 operating income of $3,609,000 decreased 74.1% from operating income of $13,956,000 in fiscal 2016. The $10.3 million decrease in operating income was driven by an impairment expense of $479,000, acquisition costs of $1,608,000 and a fair market write-up of inventory of $155,000, all related to the acquisition of Atlas Lighting Products, Inc., and restructuring costs of $412,000 ($1,503,000 was expensed in Cost of Products Sold and a net gain of $1,091,000, primarily resulting from the gain on sale of a manufacturing facility, was recorded in Selling and Administrative expenses), and plant closure costs related to an inventory write-down of $485,000 as the Company exited the manufacturing of fluorescent lighting fixtures -- combining to a net total restructuring and plant closure expense of $897,000, all of which occurred in fiscal 2017 with no corresponding costs in fiscal 2016.
The Company recorded goodwill impairment in the Lighting Segment in fiscal 2018 totaling $28 million and intangible asset impairment expense in the Graphics Segment in fiscal 2017 totaling $479,000. There was no goodwill impairment or intangible asset impairment expense in fiscal 2016.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company believes it is appropriate to evaluate its performance after making adjustments to net income for the 2018, 2017 and 2016 fiscal years reported in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). We adjusted operating income, net income and earnings per share, which exclude the impact of restructuring and plant closure costs, along with severance costs, goodwill and intangible asset impairment expense, acquisition deal costs, fair market value inventory adjustments, a tax charge related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets, and transition and re-alignment costs. These are all non-GAAP financial measures, but we believe that these adjusted supplemental measures are useful in assessing the operating performance of our business. These supplemental measures are used by our management, including our chief operating decision maker, to evaluate business results. We exclude these items because they are not representative of the ongoing results of operations of our business. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to operating income, net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

Gross profit of $69,256,000 in fiscal 2018 increased $5.0 million or 7.8% from fiscal 2017, and increased from 24.6% to 26.3% as a percentage of Lighting Segment net sales (customer plus inter-segment net sales). The Company incurred restructuring and plant closure costs, including the write-down of inventory, that were recorded in cost of sales related to the closure of the Kansas City, Kansas manufacturing facility and the Beaverton, Oregon facility of $1,544,000 in fiscal 2017 with no comparable costs in fiscal 2018. The remaining increase in amount of gross profit is due to the net effect of improved product mix, twelve months of net sales related to Atlas in fiscal 2018 compared to slightly more than four months of sales in fiscal 2017, manufacturing efficiencies as a result of the Company’s lean initiatives, continued inflationary pressures in certain commodities, competitive pricing pressures, and cost savings related to the closure of the Kansas City and Beaverton facilities.
Selling and administrative expenses of $82,051,000
in fiscal 2018 increased $31.9 million from fiscal 2017. The Company recorded a $28 million goodwill impairment charge in fiscal 2018 with no comparable expense in fiscal 2017. The Company also reported a gain on the sale of its Kansas City facility of $1,361,000 in fiscal 2017 partially offset by restructuring charges with no comparable event in fiscal 2018. When the goodwill impairment charge and the restructuring charges are removed from the year-over-year comparison of selling and administrative expenses, comparable expenses increased $2.7 million or 5.2% in fiscal 2018 from the same period of fiscal 2017. Additional year-over-year changes impacting the $2.7 million increase in selling and administrative expenses are increased employee compensation and benefits expense ($1.5 million), increased research and development expense ($0.4 million), decreased commission expense ($2.1 million), and increased amortization expense related to the acquisition of Atlas ($1.5 million).
The Lighting Segment reported an operating loss of $(12,795,000) in fiscal 2018 and represents a $26,911,000 change from operating income of $14,116,000 in the same period of fiscal 2017 primarily due to a $28 million pre-tax goodwill impairment charge. The year-over-year change was also the net result of increased net sales, an increase in gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of sales offset partially by increased selling and administrative expenses, and plant closure costs including the sale of its Kansas City, Kansas and Beaverton, Oregon facilities in fiscal 2017 with no comparable event in fiscal 2018.

Graphics Segment net sales of $81,410,000 in fiscal 2018 increased $9.0 million or 12.5% from fiscal 2017 same period net sales of $72,395,000. The increase in sales was led by SOAR, the Company’s digital signage business and sales to the petroleum/convenience store market.
Gross profit of $20,016,000 in fiscal 2018 increased $2.9 million or 17.0% from the same period of fiscal 2017. Gross profit as a percentage of segment net sales (customer plus inter-segment net sales) increased from 23.3% in fiscal 2017 to 24.2% in the same period in fiscal 2018. The change in amount of gross profit is due to the net effect of increased net sales (customer plus inter-segment net sales), an overall improvement in gross profit margins from the Company’s product, installation and shipping and handling sales, and decreased employee compensation and benefit expense ($0.4 million). The Company incurred $444,000 in fiscal 2017 related to the closure of its Woonsocket, Rhode Island facility with no comparable expense in fiscal 2018.
Selling and administrative expenses of $14,398,000 in fiscal 2018 decreased $0.3 million or 1.9% from fiscal 2017 selling and administrative expenses of $14,674,000. The Company recorded an intangible asset impairment expense of $479,000 in fiscal 2017 with no comparable charge in fiscal 2018. There was an overall net increase in several expense categories which partially offset the overall reduction in selling and administrative expense due to the fiscal 2017 intangible asset impairment.
The Graphics Segment operating income of $5,618,000 in fiscal 2018 increased $3.2 million or 130% from operating income of $2,439,000 in the same period of fiscal 2017. The increase of $3.2 million was primarily the net result of increased net sales, increased gross profit and increased gross profit margin as a percentage of sales, and a reduction in selling and administrative costs.

The gross (loss) profit relates to the intercompany profit in inventory elimination.
Administrative expenses of $14,437,000 in fiscal 2018 increased $1.0 million or 7.3% from the same period of the prior year. The $1.0 million increase is primarily the result of transition and re-alignment expenses of $3.1 million related to the departure of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer incurred in fiscal 2018 with no corresponding costs in fiscal 2017 partially offset by restructuring costs of $0.1 million related to the consolidation of its Beaverton, Oregon facility and acquisition expenses of $1.6 million incurred in fiscal 2017 with no corresponding costs in fiscal 2018.
Consolidated Results
The Company reported $1.7 million of net interest expense in fiscal 2018 compared to net interest expense of $529,000 in fiscal 2017. The increase in interest expense is the result of borrowing against the Company’s line of credit to acquire Atlas in February 2017. Fiscal 2018 represents twelve months of interest expense whereas fiscal 2017 represents slightly more than four months of interest expense.
The $3,791,000 tax benefit in fiscal 2018 represents a consolidated effective rate of 16.3%. This is the net result of an overall income tax rate of 27.6% adjusted by the $3.3 million tax expense to revalue the Company’s deferred tax assets due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and by certain permanent book-tax differences and adjustments related to uncertain income tax positions. The $80,000 income tax expense in fiscal 2017 represents a consolidated effective tax rate of 2.6% influenced by certain permanent book-tax differences, by a benefit related to uncertain income tax positions, a tax benefit related to disqualifying dispositions, and the reduction of the valuation reserve related to the sale of the Kansas City facility.
The Company reported a net loss of $(19,541,000) in fiscal 2018 as compared to net income of $3,000,000 in the same period of the prior year. The change between net income in fiscal 2017 to a net loss in fiscal 2018 is mostly driven by the $3.3 million expense in fiscal 2018 related to the re-valuation of the Company’s deferred tax assets, by the goodwill impairment, and by the transition and re-alignment costs. Also contributing to the year-over-year net change in net income are increased net sales, increased gross profit and an improvement of gross profit as a percentage of sales, increased selling and administrative expenses, and acquisition deal costs and restructuring and plant closure costs in fiscal 2017 with no comparable costs in fiscal 2018. Diluted loss per share of $(0.76) was reported in fiscal 2018 as compared to $0.12 diluted earnings per share in the same period of fiscal 2017. The weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2018 were 25,866,000 shares as compared to 25,988,000 shares in the same period last year.

The Company acquired Atlas Lighting Products, Inc. (Atlas) on February 21, 2017. Atlas is a manufacturer of high-quality LED lighting products sold in the electrical distribution market. The operating results of Atlas beginning February 21, 2017 have been included in the Company’s consolidated operating results and in the Lighting Segment results. Atlas contributed $17.8 million to net sales during fiscal 2017 since the date of acquisition.
Lighting Segment net sales of $258,997,000 in fiscal 2017 increased $14.8 million or 6.0% from fiscal 2016 net sales of $244,228,000. Comparable fiscal 2017 net sales excluding net sales from Atlas decreased by $3.1 million or 1.3% from fiscal 2016. The Lighting Segment’s net sales of light fixtures having solid-state LED technology totaled $175.2 million in fiscal 2017, representing a $29.8 million or 20.5% increase from fiscal 2016 net sales of solid-state LED light fixtures of $145.4 million. Light fixtures having solid-state LED technology represented 81.1% of total lighting product net sales in fiscal 2017 compared to 67.3% of total lighting product net sales in fiscal 2016. Total lighting product net sales includes all lighting fixtures sold and excludes sales related to installation and shipping and handling. There was a reduction in the Company’s traditional lighting sales (metal halide and fluorescent light sources) from fiscal 2016 to fiscal 2017 as customers continued to convert from traditional lighting to light fixtures having solid-state LED technology
.
Gross profit of $64,265,000 in fiscal 2017 increased $0.5 million or 0.8% from fiscal 2016, and decreased from 25.8% to 24.6% as a percentage of Lighting Segment net sales (customer plus inter-segment net sales). The Company incurred restructuring and plant closure costs, including the write-down of inventory, that were recorded in cost of sales related to the closure of the Kansas City, Kansas manufacturing facility and the Beaverton, Oregon facility of $1,544,000 in fiscal 2017 with no comparable costs in fiscal 2016. The Lighting Segment’s gross profit was also influenced by the net effect of increased net sales due to the acquisition of Atlas, improved manufacturing efficiencies as a result of the Company’s lean initiatives, competitive pricing pressures, product mix, and rapid and significant inflationary pressures including the rising cost of steel, aluminum, copper, and other commodities. In fiscal 2017, the Company announced price increases for all lighting and pole products in order to attempt to offset the rapid and significant material price inflation across several commodities. While the Company experienced material price inflation of 5% to 6%, price increases with customers did not fully offset the commodity price increases.
Selling and administrative expenses of $50,149,000 in fiscal 2017 increased $5.7 million or 12.7% from fiscal 2016. Comparable expenses excluding Atlas increased $1.4 million 3.2% in fiscal 2017 from the same period of fiscal 2016. The more notable year-over-year changes impacting the $5.7 million increase in selling and administrative expenses are increased employee compensation and benefits expense ($1.6 million), increased intangible asset amortization expense due to the increase in intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of Atlas ($0.7 million), and increased commission expense ($3.2 million). Also contributing to the increase in selling and administrative expenses are restructuring and plant closure costs of $137,000 related to the closure of the Kansas City, Kansas manufacturing facility and the Beaverton, Oregon facility that were recorded in fiscal 2017 with no comparable costs in fiscal 2016, and a gain on the sale of the Kansas City facility of $1,361,000 with no comparable event in fiscal 2016.
The Lighting Segment fiscal 2017 operating income of $14,116,000 decreased $5.2 million or 26.9% from operating income of $19,301,000 in fiscal 2016. The decrease of $5.2 million was the net result of increased net sales, an increase in gross profit, increased selling and administrative expenses, restructuring and plant closure costs, and related inventory write-downs of $1.7 million with no comparable costs in fiscal 2016, and a gain on the sale of the Kansas City facility of $1.4 million with no comparable event in fiscal 2016.

Graphics Segment net sales of $72,395,000 in fiscal 2017 decreased $5.6 million or 7.1% from fiscal 2016 net sales of $77,968,000. The decrease in sales was due to a decrease in sales to the petroleum/convenience store market along with a decrease in sales to other markets partially offset by increased sales of SOAR, the Company’s digital signage business.
Gross profit of $17,113,000 in fiscal 2017 decreased $2.4 million or 12.4% from fiscal 2016, and decreased from 24.5% to 23.3% as a percentage of Graphics Segment net sales (customer plus inter-segment net sales). The Company incurred restructuring and plant closure costs that were recorded in cost of sales related to the closure of the Woonsocket, Rhode Island manufacturing facility of $444,000. The remaining $1.9 million decrease in the amount of gross profit is due to the net effect of decreased net sales, significant inflationary pressures in several key commodities, a drop in customer installation sales related to the Company’s traditional graphics of partially offset by higher margins on installation sales, decreased freight expense as a percentage of shipping and handling revenue, and decreased compensation and benefits expense ($0.6 million).
Selling and administrative expenses of $14,674,000 in fiscal 2017 increased $0.4 million or 2.8% from fiscal 2016. The primary reason for the increase in selling and administrative expenses in fiscal 2017 was intangible asset impairment expense of $479,000 related to a customer relationship intangible asset that was determined to be fully impaired with no comparable expenses in fiscal 2016. When the impact of the asset impairment is removed, selling and administrative expenses remained relatively flat.
Graphics Segment fiscal 2017 operating income of $2,439,000 decreased $2.8 million or 53.5% from fiscal 2016 and is the net result of decreased net sales, decreased gross profit and decreased gross profit as a percentage of net sales, restructuring and plant closure costs of $444,000 and intangible asset impairment expense of $479,000 both in fiscal 2017 with no comparable costs in fiscal 2016.

The gross profit relates to the intercompany profit in inventory elimination.
Administrative expenses of $13,452,000 in fiscal 2017 increased $2.5 million or 22.8% from the same period of the prior year. The $2.5 million change in administrative expenses is largely due to acquisition costs of $1,608,000 recorded in fiscal 2017 and restructuring costs of $0.1 million recorded in fiscal 2017 related to the consolidation of its Beaverton, Oregon facility into other LSI facilities, with no comparable costs in fiscal 2016. These restructuring expenses were primarily for severance costs for employees located in the Beaverton, Oregon facility that were previously included in corporate research and development expenses. The other more notable period-over-period changes are wage and benefit expenses (decrease of $0.6 million), outside service expense (increase of $0.5 million), and research and development expense ($0.3 million increase).
Consolidated Results
The Company reported net interest expense of $529,000 in fiscal 2017 compared to net interest income of $48,000 in fiscal 2016. The change from interest income in fiscal 2016 to interest expense in fiscal 2017 is the result of borrowing against the Company’s line of credit to acquire Atlas. Commitment fees related to the unused portion of the Company’s line of credit and interest income on invested cash are included in both fiscal years. The Company was in a positive cash position and was debt free for approximately the first eight and a half months of fiscal 2017 and generated interest income on invested cash. The Company was in a borrowing position beginning on February 21, 2017 as a result of the Atlas Lighting Products acquisition.
The $80,000 income tax expense in fiscal 2017 represents a consolidated effective tax rate of 2.6% influenced by certain permanent book-tax differences, by a benefit related to uncertain income tax positions, a tax benefit related to disqualifying dispositions, and the reduction of the valuation reserve related to the sale of the Kansas City facility. The $4,522,000 income tax expense in fiscal 2016 represents a consolidated effective tax rate of 32.3%, influenced by certain permanent book-tax differences, an $111,000 tax benefit related to the R&D tax credit, and by a tax benefit related to uncertain income tax positions.
The Company reported net income of $3,000,000 in fiscal 2017 compared to net income of $9,482,000 in the prior year. The $6.5 million decrease in net income is primarily the net result of increased net sales, decreased gross profit, increased operating expenses, restructuring and plant closure costs, intangible asset impairment expense, and acquisition and deal costs, all of which occurred in fiscal 2017 with no comparable cost in fiscal 2016, and lower income tax expense in fiscal 2017 compared to fiscal 2016. Diluted earnings per share of $0.12 was reported in fiscal 2017 as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.37 in fiscal 2016. The weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share in fiscal 2017 was 25,988,000 shares as compared to 25,592,000 shares in the prior year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company considers its level of cash on hand, borrowing capacity, current ratio and working capital levels to be its most important measures of short-term liquidity. For long-term liquidity indicators, the Company believes its ratio of long-term debt to equity and its historical levels of net cash flows from operating activities to be the most important measures.
At June 30, 2018, the Company had working capital of $67.9 million, compared to $61.7 million at June 30, 2017. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.61 to 1 as compared to a ratio of 2.36 to 1 at June 30, 2017. The $6.2 million increase in working capital from June 30, 2017 to June 30, 2018 was primarily related to the net effect of increased net accounts receivable ($1.7 million), increased net inventory ($1.0 million), a decrease in accounts payable ($1.4 million), an increase in other current assets ($0.5 million), an increase in refundable income taxes ($1.0 million), a decrease in accrued expenses ($1.8 million), and a decrease in assets held for sale of $1.5 million. The Company has a strategy of aggressively managing working capital, including reduction of the accounts receivable days sales outstanding (DSO) and reduction of inventory levels, without reducing service to its customers.
The Company generated $11.5 million of cash from operating activities in fiscal 2018 as compared to $21.3 million in fiscal 2017. This $9.8 million decrease in net cash flows from operating activities is primarily the net result of an increase rather than a decrease in net accounts receivable (unfavorable change of $6.9 million), a decrease rather than an increase in accounts payable (unfavorable change of $4.2 million), an increase rather than a decrease in net inventory (unfavorable change of $4.1 million), a smaller decrease in accrued expenses and other (favorable change of $1.7 million), and a change from net income in fiscal 2017 to a net loss in fiscal 2018 more than offset by an increase in non-cash items (favorable change of $4.0 million).
Net accounts receivable were $50.6 million and $48.9 million at June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase of $1.7 million in net receivables is primarily due higher days sales outstanding (DSO). The DSO increased to 53 days at June 30, 2018 from 51 days at June 30, 2017. The Company believes that its receivables are ultimately collectible or recoverable, net of certain reserves, and that aggregate allowances for doubtful accounts are adequate.
Net inventories of $51.0 million at June 30, 2018 increased $1.0 million from June 30, 2017 levels. The increase of $1.0 million is the result of an increase in gross inventory of $1.8 million partially offset by an increase in inventory obsolescence reserves of $0.8 million. Based on a strategy of balancing inventory reductions with customer service and the timing of shipments, net inventory increases occurred in fiscal 2018 in the Graphics Segment of approximately $1.8 million partially offset by a drop in inventory in the Lighting Segment of approximately $0.8 million.
Cash generated from operations and borrowing capacity under the Company’s line of credit is the Company’s primary source of liquidity. The Company has a secured $100 million revolving line of credit with its bank, with $54.6 million of the credit line available as of August 19, 2018. This line of credit is a $100 million five year credit line expiring in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company believes that its $100 million line of credit plus cash flows from operating activities are adequate for the Company’s fiscal 2019 operational and capital expenditure needs. The Company is in compliance with all of its loan covenants.
The Company used cash of $1.9 million related to investing activities in fiscal 2018 as compared to a use of cash of $98.6 million in the same period from the prior year, resulting in a favorable change of $96.7 million. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2018 decreased $3.2 million to $3.4 million from the same period in fiscal 2017. The Company sold its Woonsocket manufacturing facility for $1.5 million in fiscal 2018 and sold its Kansas City manufacturing facility for $3.1 million in fiscal 2017. The Company acquired Atlas Lighting Products in the third quarter of fiscal 2017, which used cash of $95.1 million which was largely funded by the Company’s revolving line of credit (refer to the explanation below regarding the Company’s financing activities).
The Company used $9.5 million of cash related to financing activities in fiscal 2018 compared to a source of cash of $46.6 million in fiscal 2017. The $56.1 million unfavorable change in cash flow was primarily the result of the funding of the acquisition of Atlas through the Company’s line of credit in fiscal 2017 and the partial pay-down of the line of credit in fiscal 2018.
The Company has, or could have, on its balance sheet financial instruments consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, revolving lines of credit, and long-term debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value because of their short-term maturity and/or variable, market-driven interest rates.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk and has no off-balance sheet arrangements except for the operating leases identified in the table below.

Cash Dividends
In August 2018, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable September 4, 2017 to shareholders of record as of August 27, 2017. The indicated annual cash dividend rate for fiscal 2018 was $0.20 per share. The Board of Directors has adopted a policy regarding dividends which indicates that dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion based upon its evaluation of earnings, cash flow requirements, financial condition, debt levels, stock repurchases, future business developments and opportunities, and other factors deemed relevant.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company is required to make estimates and judgments in the preparation of its financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related footnote disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. The Company continually reviews these estimates and their underlying assumptions to ensure they remain appropriate. The Company believes the items discussed below are among its most significant accounting policies because they utilize estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and therefore are based on management’s judgment. Significant changes in the estimates or assumptions related to any of the following critical accounting policies could possibly have a material impact on the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when title to goods and risk of loss have passed to the customer, there is persuasive evidence of a purchase arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded net of estimated returns, rebates and discounts. Amounts received from customers prior to the recognition of revenue are accounted for as customer pre-payments and are included in accrued expenses.
The Company has multiple sources of revenue: revenue from product sales; revenue from installation of products; service revenue generated from providing integrated design, project and construction management, site engineering and site permitting, and commissioning of lighting controls; revenue from the management of media content and digital hardware related to active digital signage; and revenue from shipping and handling.
Product revenue is recognized on product-only orders upon passing of title and risk of loss, generally at time of shipment. In certain arrangements with customers, as is the case with the sale of some of our solid-state LED video screens, revenue is recognized upon customer acceptance of the video screen at the job site. Product revenue related to orders where the customer requires the Company to install the product is recognized when the product is installed. The company provides product warranties and certain post-shipment service, support and maintenance of certain solid-state LED video screens and billboards.
Installation revenue is recognized when the products have been fully installed. The Company is not always responsible for installation of products it sells and has no post-installation responsibilities, other than normal warranties.
Service revenue from integrated design, project and construction management, and site permitting is recognized when all products at a customer site have been installed.
Revenue from the management of media content and digital hardware related to active digital signage is recognized evenly over the service period with the customer. Media content service periods with most customers range from 1 month to 1 year.
Shipping and handling revenue coincides with the recognition of revenue from the sale of the product.
In situations where the Company is responsible for re-imaging programs with multiple sites, each site is viewed as a separate unit of accounting and has stand-alone value to the customer. Revenue is recognized upon the Company’s complete performance at the location, which may include a site survey, graphics products, lighting products, and installation of products. The selling price assigned to each site is based upon an agreed upon price between the Company and its customer and reflects the estimated selling price for that site relative to the selling price for sites with similar image requirements.
The Company also evaluates the appropriateness of revenue recognition in accordance with the accounting standard on software revenue recognition. Our solid-state LED video screens, billboards and active digital signage contain software elements which the Company has determined are incidental.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided on items that are reported as either income or expense in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are reported on the Company’s balance sheet. Significant management judgment is required in developing the Company’s income tax provision, including the estimation of taxable income and the effective income tax rates in the multiple taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the estimation of the liability for uncertain income tax positions, the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets. The Company has adopted ASU 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” As a result of adoption of this accounting guidance, prior periods have been re-classified, which only affected the financial statement presentation and not the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets.
The Company operates in multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. The Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities routinely review the Company’s tax returns. These audits can involve complex issues which may require an extended period of time to resolve. In management’s opinion, adequate provision has been made for potential adjustments arising from these audits.
The Company is recording estimated interest and penalties related to potential underpayment of income taxes as a component of tax expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The reserve for uncertain tax positions is not expected to change significantly in the next twelve months.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law on December 22nd, 2017 and makes numerous changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Among other changes, the Act reduced the U.S. corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018. Because the Act became effective mid-way through the Company’s tax year, the Company will have a U.S. statutory income tax rate of 27.6% for fiscal 2018, and will have a 21% U.S. statutory income tax rate for fiscal years thereafter. During fiscal 2018, the Company re-valued the deferred tax balances because of the change in U.S. tax rate resulting in a one-time deferred tax expense of $3.3 million.
Asset Impairment
Carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed at least annually for possible impairment in accordance with the accounting guidance on goodwill and intangible assets. The Company may first assess qualitative factors in order to determine if goodwill is impaired. If through the qualitative assessment it is determined that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired, no further testing is required. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, or if the Company elects not to first assess qualitative factors, the Company’s impairment testing continues at the reporting unit level with the estimation of the fair value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets using a combination of a market approach and an income (discounted cash flow) approach. The estimation of the fair value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets requires significant management judgment with respect to revenue and expense growth rates, changes in working capital and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. The estimates of fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted future operating cash flows and could increase or decrease an impairment charge. Company management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as adverse business conditions, a sustained drop in the Company’s stock price, economic factors and technological change or competitive activities may signal that an asset has become impaired.
Carrying values for long-lived tangible assets and definite-lived intangible assets, excluding goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for possible impairment as circumstances warrant. Impairment reviews are conducted at the judgment of Company management when it believes that a change in circumstances in the business or external factors warrants a review. Circumstances such as the discontinuation of a product or product line, a sudden or consistent decline in the forecast for a product, changes in technology or in the way an asset is being used, a history of negative operating cash flow, or an adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate, among others, may trigger an impairment review. The Company’s initial impairment review to determine if a potential impairment charge is required is based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows exist. The analysis requires judgment with respect to changes in technology, the continued success of product lines and future volume, revenue and expense growth rates, and discount rates.
Credit and Collections
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts receivable for probable estimated losses resulting from either customer disputes or the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company may be required to record additional allowances or charges against income. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by first considering all known collectability problems of customers’ accounts, and then applying certain percentages against the various aging categories based on the due date of the remaining receivables. The resulting allowance for doubtful accounts receivable is an estimate based upon the Company’s knowledge of its business and customer base, and historical trends. The amount ultimately not collected may differ from the reserve established, particularly in the case where percentages are applied against aging categories. In all cases, it is management’s goal to carry a reserve against the Company’s accounts receivable which is adequate based upon the information available at that time so that net accounts receivable is properly stated. The Company also establishes allowances, at the time revenue is recognized, for returns and allowances, discounts, pricing and other possible deductions. These allowances are based upon contractual terms and historical trends.
Warranty Reserves
The Company offers a limited warranty that its products are free from defects in workmanship and materials. The specific terms and conditions vary somewhat by product line, but generally cover defective products returned within one to five years, with some exceptions where the terms extend to ten years, from the date of shipment. The Company records warranty liabilities to cover the estimated future costs for repair or replacement of defective returned products as well as products that need to be repaired or replaced in the field after installation. The Company calculates its liability for warranty claims by applying estimates based upon historical claims as a percentage of sales to cover unknown claims, as well as estimating the total amount to be incurred for known warranty issues. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.
Inventory Reserves
The Company maintains an inventory reserve for probable obsolete and excess inventory. The Company first determines its obsolete inventory reserve by considering specific known obsolete items, and then by applying certain percentages to specific inventory categories based upon inventory turns. The Company uses various tools, in addition to inventory turns, to identify which inventory items have the potential to become obsolete. A combination of financial modeling and qualitative input factors are used to establish excess and obsolete inventory reserves and management adjusts these reserves as more information becomes available about the ultimate disposition of the inventory item. Management values inventory at lower of cost or market.
The Company is required to make estimates and judgments in the preparation of its financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related footnote disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. The Company continually reviews these estimates and their underlying assumptions to ensure they remain appropriate. The Company believes the items discussed above are among its most significant accounting policies because they utilize estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and therefore are based on management’s judgment. Significant changes in the estimates or assumptions related to any of the following critical accounting policies could possibly have a material impact on the financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This amended guidance supersedes and replaces all existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition guidance. The guidance established a new revenue recognition model, changes the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific revenue topics, and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing.” In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.” In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” These three standards clarify or improve guidance from ASU 2014-09 and are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, or the Company’s fiscal year 2019.
The Company has adopted the standard as of July 1, 2018 and applied the modified retrospective approach. The recognition of revenue from most product sales is largely unaffected by the new standard. However, the Company has changed the timing of recognition of certain product sales requiring installation. Under the new standard, revenue for the product portion of a sales order containing installation is recognized when shipment occurs. Additionally, revenue will be recognized on certain custom product orders when the product is produced and committed to inventory. The Company expects to recognize an approximate $0.6 million to $1.0 million cumulative effect of applying the new revenue standard as a credit adjustment to the 2018 opening balance of retained earnings. Effective July 1, 2018, the Company has implemented appropriate changes to policies, processes, systems, and controls to support revenue recognition and disclosures in accordance with the ASU 2014-09 guidance.
In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.” The amended guidance requires an entity to measure in scope inventory at lower of cost and net realizable value. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, or the Company’s fiscal 2018. We adopted the new accounting standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases.” The amended guidance requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities that arise from leases. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, or the Company’s fiscal 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet determined the impact the amended guidance will have on its financial statements.
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations.” The amendment is intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, or the Company’s fiscal 2019, with early adoption permitted in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has determined the amended guidance will have an immaterial impact on its financial statements.
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, which simplifies the testing for goodwill impairment by eliminating a previously required step. The standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, or the Company’s fiscal 2021. Early adoption of the accounting standard is permitted, and the Company elected to adopt this standard early. (See Footnote 6)
In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This amended guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, or the Company’s fiscal 2018. We adopted this standard on July 1, 2017 and recognized a tax detriment of $292,000 in income tax expense during the twelve months ended June 30, 2018. The amount may not necessarily be indicative of future amounts that may be recognized as any excess tax benefits recognized would be dependent on future stock price, employee exercise behavior and applicable tax rates. Prior to July 1, 2017, excess tax benefits were recognized in additional paid-in capital. Additionally, excess tax benefits are now included in net cash flows provided by operating activities rather than net cash flows provided by financing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The treatment of forfeitures has not changed, as the Company is electing to continue the current process of estimating forfeiture at the time of grant. The Company had no unrecognized excess tax benefits from prior periods to record upon the adoption of this ASU.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This amendment provides additional guidance on the measurement of expected credit losses for financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions, and supportable forecasts. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, or the Company’s fiscal 2021. The Company is evaluating the impact of the amended guidance and the anticipated impact to the financial statements is not material.
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which provides cash flow classification guidance for certain cash receipts and cash payments. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, or the Company’s fiscal 2019. The Company is evaluating the impact the amended guidance will have on its financial statements.

ANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Management of LSI Industries Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “LSI”) is responsible for the preparation and accuracy of the financial statements and other information included in this report. LSI’s Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of Management, including LSI’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2018, based on the criteria set forth in “the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the reality that judgments in decision making can be faulty, the possibility of human error, and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.
In meeting its responsibility for the reliability of the financial statements, the Company depends upon its system of internal accounting controls. The system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are properly authorized and recorded. The system is supported by policies and guidelines, and by careful selection and training of financial management personnel. The Company also has a Disclosure Controls Committee, whose responsibility is to help ensure appropriate disclosures and presentation of the financial statements and notes thereto. Additionally, the Company has an Internal Audit Department to assist in monitoring compliance with financial policies and procedures.
The Board of Directors meets its responsibility for overview of the Company’s financial statements through its Audit Committee which is composed entirely of independent Directors who are not employees of the Company. The Audit Committee meets periodically with Management and Internal Audit to review and assess the activities of each in meeting their respective responsibilities. Grant Thornton LLP has full access to the Audit Committee to discuss the results of their audit work, the adequacy of internal accounting controls, and the quality of financial reporting.
Based upon LSI’s evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2018. We reviewed the results of Management’s assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Additionally, our independent registered public accounting firm audited and independently assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is presented in the financial statements.

Board of Directors and Shareholders
LSI Industries Inc.
Opinion on internal control over financial reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of LSI Industries (an Ohio corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2018, based on criteria established in the 2013
Internal Control—Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2018, based on criteria established in the 2013
Internal Control—Integrated Framework
issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, and our report dated September 11, 2018 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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.

Board of Directors and Shareholders
LSI Industries Inc.
Opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2018, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2018, based on criteria established in the 2013

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1
— SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition:
Revenue is recognized when title to goods and risk of loss have passed to the customer, there is persuasive evidence of a purchase arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded net of estimated returns, rebates and discounts. Amounts received from customers prior to the recognition of revenue are accounted for as customer pre-payments and are included in accrued expenses.
The Company has
five
sources of revenue: revenue from product sales; revenue from installation of products; service revenue generated from providing integrated design, project and construction management, site engineering and site permitting, and commissioning of lighting controls; revenue from the management of media content and digital hardware related to active digital signage; and revenue from shipping and handling.
Product revenue is recognized on product-only orders upon passing of title and risk of loss, generally at time of shipment. In certain arrangements with customers, as is the case with the sale of some of our solid-state LED (light emitting diode) video screens, revenue is recognized upon customer acceptance of the video screen at the job site. Product revenue related to orders where the customer requires the Company to install the product is recognized when the product is installed. The Company provides product warranties and certain post-shipment service, support and maintenance of certain solid state LED video screens.
Installation revenue is recognized when the products have been fully installed. The Company is
not
always responsible for installation of products it sells and has
no
post-installation responsibilities, other than normal warranties.
Service revenue from integrated design, project and construction management, and site permitting is recognized when all products at a customer site have been installed.
Revenue from the management of media content and digital hardware related to active digital signage is recognized evenly over the service period with the customer. Media content service periods with most customers range from
one
month to
one
year.
Shipping and handling revenue coincides with the recognition of revenue from sale of the product.
In situations where the Company is responsible for re-imaging programs with multiple sites, each site is viewed as a separate unit of accounting and has stand-alone value to the customer. Revenue is recognized upon the Company’s complete performance at the location, which
may
include a site survey, graphics products, lighting products, and installation of products. The selling price assigned to each site is based upon an agreed upon price between the Company and its customer and reflects the estimated selling price for that site relative to the selling price for sites with similar image requirements.
The Company also evaluates the appropriateness of revenue recognition in accordance with the accounting standards on software revenue recognition. Our solid-state LED video screens and active digital signage contain software elements which the Company has determined are incidental.
Credit and Collections:
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts receivable for probable estimated losses resulting from either customer disputes or the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company
may
be required to record additional allowances or charges against income. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by
first
considering all known collectability problems of customers’ accounts, and then applying certain percentages against the various aging categories based on the due date of the remaining receivables. The resulting allowance for doubtful accounts receivable is an estimate based upon the Company’s knowledge of its business and customer base, and historical trends. Receivables deemed uncollectable are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company also establishes allowances, at the time revenue is recognized, for returns, discounts, pricing and other possible customer deductions. These allowances are based upon historical trends.
The following table presents the Company’s net accounts receivable at the dates indicated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:
The cash balance includes cash and cash equivalents which have original maturities of less than
three
months. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of bank deposits and a bank money market account that is stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains balances at financial institutions in the United States. In the United States, the FDIC limit for insurance coverage on non-interest bearing accounts is
$250,000.
As of
June 30, 2018
and
June 30, 2017,
the Company had bank balances of
$4,507,000
and
$4,488,000,
respectively, without insurance coverage.
Inventories and Inventory Reserves:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost of inventories includes the cost of purchased raw materials and components, direct labor, as well as manufacturing overhead which is generally applied to inventory based on direct labor and on material content. Cost is determined on the
first
-in,
first
-out basis.
The Company maintains an inventory reserve for obsolete and excess inventory. The Company
first
determines its obsolete inventory reserve by considering specific known obsolete items, and then by applying certain percentages to specific inventory categories based upon inventory turns. The Company uses various tools, in addition to inventory turns, to identify which inventory items have the potential to become obsolete. Judgment is used to establish excess and obsolete inventory reserves and management adjusts these reserves as more information becomes available about the ultimate disposition of the inventory item.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Related Depreciation:
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major additions and betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
|
Buildings (in years)
|
|
|
28
|
-
|
40
|
|
|
Machinery and equipment (in years)
|
|
|

|
-
|
10
|
|
|
Computer software (in years)
|
|
|
3
|
-
|
8
|
|
Costs related to the purchase, internal development, and implementation of the Company’s fully integrated enterprise resource planning/business operating software system are either capitalized or expensed. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of
fifteen
years or the remaining term of the lease.
The Company recorded
$7,462,000,
$7,005,000
and
$6,171,000
of depreciation expense in the years ended
June 30, 2018,
2017
and
2016,
respectively.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets:
Intangible assets consisting of customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, patents, technology and software, and non-compete agreements are recorded on the Company's balance sheet. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized to expense over periods ranging between
seven
and
twenty
years. The Company evaluates definite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment when triggering events are identified. Neither indefinite-lived intangible assets nor the excess of cost over fair value of assets acquired ("goodwill") are amortized, however they are subject to review for impairment. See additional information about goodwill and intangibles in Note
6.
Fair Value:
The Company has financial instruments consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, revolving lines of credit, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and long-term debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value because of their short-term maturity and/or variable, market-driven interest rates. The Company has
no
financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.
Fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities are primarily used in goodwill and other intangible asset impairment analyses, long-lived asset impairment analyses, in the purchase price of acquired companies, and in the valuation of the contingent earn-out. The accounting guidance on fair value measurement was used to measure the fair value of these nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.
Product Warranties:
The Company offers a limited warranty that its products are free from defects in workmanship and materials. The specific terms and conditions vary somewhat by product line, but generally cover defective products returned within
one
to
five
years, with some exceptions where the terms extend to
10
years, from the date of shipment. The Company records warranty liabilities to cover the estimated future costs for repair or replacement of defective returned products as well as products that need to be repaired or replaced in the field after installation. The Company calculates its liability for warranty claims by applying estimates based upon historical claims as a percentage of sales to cover unknown claims, as well as estimating the total amount to be incurred for known warranty issues. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.
Changes in the Company’s warranty liabilities, which are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, during the periods indicated below were as follows:

Employee Benefit Plans:
In fiscal
2017,
the Company provided a defined contribution retirement plan and a discretionary profit sharing plan covering substantially all of its non-union employees. In fiscal
2018,
the Company changed its retirement plan to a
401k
match whereby employee’s contributions to the
401k
are matched by the Company. As with the previous defined contribution retirement plan and a discretionary profit sharing plan, the
401k
match program covers substantially all of its non-union employees. The Company also has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees. The costs of employee benefit plans are charged to expense and funded annually. Total costs were
$1,195,214
in
2018,
$2,373,000
in
2017,
and
$2,327,000
in
2016.
Research and Development Costs:
Research and development costs are directly attributable to new product development, including the development of new technology for both existing and new products, and consist of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, materials, outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents, supplies, depreciation and other administrative costs. The Company expenses as research and development all costs associated with development of software used in solid-state LED products. All costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and administrative expenses. Research and development costs related to both product and software development totaled
$5,952,000,
$5,700,000
and
$5,549,000
for the fiscal years ended
June 30, 2018,
2017
and
2016,
respectively.
Cost of Products and Services Sold:
Cost of products sold is primarily comprised of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacture of products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense and direct overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into finished product. Cost of products sold also includes the cost to distribute products to customers, inbound freight costs, internal transfer costs, warehousing costs and other shipping and handling activity. Cost of services sold is primarily comprised of the internal and external labor costs required to support the Company’s service revenue along with the management of media content.
Earnings Per Common Share:
The computation of basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period net of treasury shares held in the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period and includes common share equivalents. Common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock units, stock warrants, contingently issuable shares and common shares to be issued under a deferred compensation plan, all of which totaled
720,000
shares in fiscal
2018;
844,000
shares in fiscal
2017;
and
872,000
shares in fiscal
2016.
See further discussion in Note
3.
Income Taxes:
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided on items that are reported as either income or expense in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets are reported on the Company’s balance sheet. Significant management judgment is required in developing the Company’s income tax provision, including the estimation of taxable income and the effective income tax rates in the multiple taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the estimation of the liability for uncertain income tax positions, the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law on
December
22nd,
2017
and makes numerous changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Among other changes, the Act reduces the U.S. corporate income tax rate to
21%
effective
January 1, 2018.
Because the Act became effective mid-way through the Company’s tax year, the Company will have a U.S statutory income tax rate of
27.6%
for fiscal
2018,
and will have a
21%
U.S. statutory income tax rate for fiscal years thereafter. As of
June 30, 2018,
the Company re-valued the deferred tax balances because of the change in U.S. tax rate resulting in a
one
-time deferred tax expense of
$3,323,000.
New Accounting Pronouncements:
In
June 2014,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU
2014
-
09,
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This amended guidance supersedes and replaces all existing U.S. GAAP revenue recognition guidance. The guidance established a new revenue recognition model, changes the basis for deciding when revenue is recognized, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific revenue topics, and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. In
April 2016,
the FASB issued ASU
2016
-
10,
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing.” In
May 2016,
the FASB issued ASU
2016
-
12,
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.” In
December 2016,
the FASB issued ASU
2016
-
20,
“Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic
606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” These
three
standards clarify or improve guidance from ASU
2014
-
09
and are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after
December 15, 2017,
or the Company’s fiscal year
2019.
The Company has adopted the standard as of
July 1, 2018
and applied the modified retrospective approach. The recognition of revenue from most product sales is largely unaffected by the new standard. However, the Company has changed the timing of recognition of certain product sales requiring installation. Under the new standard, revenue for the product portion of a sales order containing installation is recognized when shipment occurs. Additionally, revenue will be recognized on certain custom product orders when the product is produced and committed to inventory. The Company expects to recognize an approximate
$0.6
million to
$1.0
million cumulative effect of applying the new revenue standard as a credit adjustment to the
2018
opening balance of retained earnings. Effective
July 1, 2018,
the Company has implemented appropriate changes to policies, processes, systems, and controls to support revenue recognition and disclosures in accordance with the ASU
2014
-
09
guidance.
In
November 2015,
the FASB issued ASU
2015
-
17,
“Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes,” which eliminates the current requirement to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the statement of financial position. This update requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent. This update is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
April
1,
2017.
This update
may
be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. However, early adoption is permitted and the Company has chosen to adopt the standard retrospectively as of
June 30, 2016.
As a result, prior periods have been adjusted to reflect this change. This update affected the presentation, but
not
the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets.
In
February 2016,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU
2016
-
02,
“Leases.” The amended guidance requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities that arise from leases. The amended guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after
December 15, 2018,
or the Company’s fiscal year
2020,
with early adoption permitted. The Company has
not
yet determined the impact the amended guidance will have on its financial statements.
Comprehensive Income:
The Company does
not
have any comprehensive income items other than net income.
Subsequent Events:
The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements were filed.
No
items were identified during this evaluation that required adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications:
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation within the cash flows from operating activities section and cash flows from financing activities section of the statement of cash flows. Additionally, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation within the statement of shareholders’ equity. These reclassifications have
no
impact on net income or earnings per share.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE
2
— BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The accounting guidance on Segment Reporting establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information of those segments to be presented in financial statements. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or “CODM”) in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. In the
first
quarter of fiscal
2018,
the Company merged its Technology Segment with the Lighting Segment to be in alignment with the financial information received by the Chief Executive Officer and how the business is managed. The Company’s
two
operating segments are Lighting and Graphics, each of which has a president who is responsible for that business and reports to the CODM. Corporate and Eliminations, which captures the Company’s corporate administrative activities, is also reported in the segment information.
The Lighting Segment includes outdoor and indoor lighting utilizing both traditional and LED light sources that have been fabricated and assembled for the commercial/industrial market, the petroleum / convenience store market, the automotive dealership market, the quick service restaurant market, along with other markets the Company serves. The Lighting Segment also includes the design, engineering, and manufacturing of electronic circuit boards, assemblies and sub-assemblies used to manufacture certain LED light fixtures and sold directly to customers.
The Graphics Segment designs, manufactures and installs exterior and interior visual image elements such as traditional graphics, interior branding, electrical and architectural signage, active digital signage along with the management of media content related to digital signage, LED video screens, and menu board systems that are either digital or traditional by design. These products are used in visual image programs in several markets including, but
not
limited to the petroleum / convenience store market, multi-site retail operations, banking, and restaurants. The Graphics Segment implements, installs and provides program management services related to products sold by the Graphics Segment and by the Lighting Segment.
The Company’s corporate administration activities are reported in the Corporate and Eliminations line item. These activities primarily include intercompany profit in inventory eliminations, expense related to certain corporate officers and support staff, the Company’s internal audit staff, expense related to the Company’s Board of Directors, stock option expense for options granted to corporate administration employees, certain consulting expenses, investor relations activities, and a portion of the Company’s legal, auditing and professional fee expenses. Corporate identifiable assets primarily consist of cash, invested cash (if any), refundable income taxes (if any), and deferred income taxes.
There were
no
customers or customer programs representing a concentration of
10%
or more of the Company’s net sales in the fiscal years ended
June
30,
2018,
2017,
and
2016.
There was

—
GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed at least annually for possible impairment. The Company
may
first
assess qualitative factors in order to determine if goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. If through the qualitative assessment it is determined that it is more likely than
not
that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are
not
impaired,
no
further testing is required. If it is determined more likely than
not
that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are impaired, or if the Company elects
not
to
first
assess qualitative factors, the Company’s impairment testing continues with the estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of a market approach and an income (discounted cash flow) approach, at the reporting unit level. The estimation of the fair value of reporting unit requires significant management judgment with respect to revenue and expense growth rates, changes in working capital and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. The estimates of the fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted future operating cash flows and could increase or decrease an impairment charge. Company management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets
may
have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as adverse business conditions, economic factors and technological change or competitive activities
may
signal that an asset has become impaired.
The Company identified its reporting units in conjunction with its annual goodwill impairment testing. The Company has a total of
three
reporting units that contain goodwill. There are
two
reporting units within the Lighting Segment and
one
reporting unit within the Graphics Segment. One reporting unit previously reported in the Technology Segment has been transferred to the Lighting Segment as a result of the merge of the Technology Segment with the Lighting Segment (See Note
2
). The Company relies upon a number of factors, judgments and estimates when conducting its impairment testing including, but
not
limited to, the Company’s stock price, operating results, forecasts, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and judgments in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.
A sustained and significant decline in the Company’s stock price in the
first
quarter of fiscal
2018
led management to believe that a triggering event occurred and that an interim goodwill impairment test was required for
one
of the reporting units in the Lighting Segment that contains goodwill, as of
September 30, 2017.
This particular reporting unit was tested because its fair market value was marginally higher than its carrying value. The other reporting units had considerable clearance between its fair market value and carrying value. Because the Company elected to early adopt ASU
2017
-
04,
“Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, the requirement to perform step
2
in the impairment test was
not
required. The result of the impairment test on the reporting unit in the Lighting Segment indicated that goodwill was impaired by
$28,000,000.
As of
March 1, 2018,
the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on the
three
reporting units that contain goodwill. The goodwill impairment test on
one
reporting unit in the Lighting Segment passed with a business enterprise value that was
$21.4
million or
15%
above the carrying value of this reporting unit. The goodwill impairment test of a
second
reporting unit in the Lighting Segment that contains goodwill passed with an estimated business enterprise value that was
$16.1
million or
69%
above the carrying value of this reporting unit. The goodwill impairment test of the reporting unit with goodwill in the Graphics Segment passed with an estimated business enterprise value that was
$3.3
million or
319%
above the carrying value of the reporting unit. The Company has performed an assessment of goodwill from the date of the annual test through the balance sheet date for possible triggering events and has concluded that other than the impairment analysis that was performed in the
fourth
quarter on the reporting unit in the Lighting Segment (see below), there were
no
triggering events that would indicate the assets are impaired.
Another sustained and significant decline in the Company’s stock price in the
fourth
quarter of fiscal
2018
led management to believe that a triggering event occurred and that an interim goodwill impairment test was required for
one
of the reporting units in the Lighting Segment that contains goodwill, as of
May 31, 2018.
This particular reporting unit was tested because its fair market value was marginally higher than its carrying value. The other reporting units had considerable clearance between its fair market value and carrying value. Because the Company elected to early adopt ASU
2017
-
04,
“Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, the requirement to perform step

in the impairment test was
not
required. The goodwill impairment test of the reporting unit in the Lighting Segment passed with a business enterprise value that was
$13.7
million or
11%
above the carrying value of this reporting unit including goodwill.
As of
March 1, 2017,
the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on the
three
reporting units that contain goodwill (excluding Atlas Lighting Products). The goodwill impairment test on
two
reporting units in the Lighting Segment passed with a business enterprise value that was
$60.0
million or
80%
above the carrying value for
one
of the reporting units and a business enterprise value that was
$23.2
million or
95%
above the carrying value for the
second
reporting unit. The goodwill impairment test of the
one
reporting unit with goodwill in the Graphics Segment passed with an estimated business enterprise value that was
$4.2
million or
424%
above the carrying value of the reporting unit.

The Company performed its annual review of indefinite-lived intangible assets as of
March 1, 2018
and determined there was
no
impairment. The indefinite-lived intangible impairment test passed with a fair market value that was
$20.6
million or
604%
above its carrying value. The Company has performed an assessment of its intangible assets from the date of the annual test through the balance sheet date for possible triggering events and has concluded that there were
no
triggering events that would indicate the assets are impaired.
As of
March 1, 2017,
the Company performed its annual review of indefinite-lived intangible assets and determined there was
no
impairment. The indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test passed with a fair market value that was
$15.2
million or
445%
above its carrying value.
In
March 2017,
a customer relationship intangible asset with a net book value of
$479,000
related to the LED video screen product line in the Graphics Segment was determined to be fully impaired. The Company deemed that distribution channels and corresponding projected future cash flows that support the customer list intangible asset are
not
adequate to support the asset.
The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization by major other intangible asset class is as follows:

— REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT
In
February 2017
the Company amended its secured line of credit to a
$100
million facility. The line of credit expires in the
third
quarter of fiscal
2022.
Interest on the revolving line of credit is charged based upon an increment over the LIBOR rate as periodically determined, or at the bank’s base lending rate, at the Company’s option. The increment over the LIBOR borrowing rate, as periodically determined, fluctuates between
125
and
250
basis points depending upon the ratio of indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined in the line of credit agreement. The fee on the unused balance of the
$100
million committed line of credit is
15
basis points. Under the terms of this line of credit, the Company has agreed to a negative pledge of real estate assets and is required to comply with financial covenants that limit the ratio of indebtedness to EBITDA and require a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. As of
June 30, 2018,
a total of
$45.4
million was borrowed against the line of credit, and
$54.6
million was available as of that date. Based on the terms of the line of credit and the maturity date, the debt has been classified as long term.
The Company is in compliance with all of its loan covenants as of
June 30, 2018.

CASH DIVIDENDS
The Company paid cash dividends of
$5,154,000,
$5,048,000
and
$4,214,000
in fiscal years
2018,
2017
and
2016,
respectively. Dividends on restricted stock units in the amount of
$50,621
and
$30,067
were accrued as of
June 30, 2018
and
2017,
respectively. These dividends are paid upon the vesting of the restricted stock units when shares are issued to the award recipients. In
August 2018,
the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of
$0.05
per share payable
September 4, 2018
to shareholders of record
August 27, 2018.

EQUITY COMPENSATION
Stock Options
The Company’s equity compensation plan, the
2012
Stock Incentive Plan (“the
2012
Plan”), was approved by shareholders in
November 2012.
The
2012
Plan covers all of its full-time employees, outside directors and certain advisors and replaced all previous equity compensation plans. In
November 2016,
the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the
2012
Plan that added
1,600,000
shares to the plan and implemented the use of a fungible share ratio that consumes
2.5
available shares for every full value share awarded by the Company as stock compensation. The
2012
Plan allows for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted and unrestricted stock awards, and other stock-based awards. Stock option grants or stock awards made pursuant to the
2012
Plan are granted at fair market value at the date of option grant or stock award.
Stock option grants
may
be service-based or performance-based. Service-based options granted during fiscal
2017
and prior fiscal years generally have a
four
year ratable vesting period beginning
one
year after the date of grant. Service-based options granted during fiscal
2018
have a
three
year ratable vesting period beginning
one
year after the date of grant. Performance-based options have a
three
year ratable vesting period beginning
one
year after the date of grant. The maximum exercise period of stock options granted under the
2012
Plan is
ten
years. If a stock option holder’s employment with the Company terminates by reason of death, disability or retirement, as defined in the Plan, the Plan generally provides for acceleration of vesting.
The number of shares reserved for issuance under the
2012
Plan is
1,436,303
shares, all of which were available for future grant or award as of
June 30, 2018.
Service-based and performance-based stock options were granted and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were awarded during fiscal
2018.
As of
June 30, 2018,
a total of
3,298,677
stock options were outstanding under the
2012
Plan (as well as
one
previous stock option plan which was also approved by shareholders), of which, a total of
1,824,552
stock options were vested and exercisable. As of
June 30, 2018,
the approximate unvested stock option expense that will be recorded as expense in future periods is
$1,052,342.
The weighted average time over which this expense will be recorded is approximately
20
months. Additionally, as of
June 30, 2018,
a total of
169,397
RSUs were outstanding. The approximate unvested stock compensation expense that will be recorded as expense in future periods for the RSUs is
$246,301.
The weighted average time over which this expense will be recorded is approximately
21
months.
Stock Warrants
The Company has
200,000
stock warrants fully vested and outstanding as of
June 30, 2018.
The fair value of the warrants on the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The below listed weighted average assumptions were used for the warrants. The stock warrants issued during fiscal year
2017
have an exercise price of
$9.95,
and a fair value of
$2.87.
As of
June 30, 2018,
the warrants had a remaining contractual life of
3.7
years.

At
June 30, 2018,
the
794,537
options granted during fiscal
2018
to employees had exercise prices ranging from
$5.92
to
$6.54
per share, fair values ranging from
$1.71
to
$1.96
per share, and remaining contractual lives of between
9
years and
10
years. The performance metric for the
345,560
performance based stock options granted in fiscal
2018
was
not
achieved; therefore these stock options were forfeited in fiscal
2018.
At
June 30, 2017,
the
1,332,623
options granted during fiscal
2017
to employees had exercise prices ranging from
$9.15
to
$11.06
per share, fair values ranging from
$3.01
to
$3.83
per share, and remaining contractual lives of between
9
years and
10
years. The performance metric for the
425,000
performance based stock options granted in fiscal
2017
was
not
achieved; therefore these stock options were forfeited in fiscal
2017.
At
June 30, 2016,
the
1,026,800
options granted during fiscal
2016
to employees had exercise prices ranging from
$8.84
to
$11.87
per share, fair values ranging from
$3.28
to
$4.52
per share, and remaining contractual lives of between
9
years and
9.7
years.
The Company calculates stock option expense using the Black-Scholes model. Stock option expense is recorded on a straight line basis, or sooner if the grantee is retirement eligible as defined in the
2012
Plan, with an estimated
8.70%
forfeiture rate effective
April 1, 2018.
Previous estimated forfeiture rates were between
2.00%
and
8.79%
between the periods
January 1, 2013
through
March 31, 2018.
The expected volatility of the Company’s stock was calculated based upon the historic monthly fluctuation in stock price for a period approximating the expected life of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is the rate of a
five
year Treasury security at constant, fixed maturity on the approximate date of the stock option grant. The expected life of outstanding options is determined to be less than the contractual term for a period equal to the aggregate group of option holders’ estimated weighted average time within which options will be exercised. It is the Company’s policy that when stock options are exercised, new common shares shall be issued.
The Company recorded
$2,147,423,
$2,478,861
and
$2,519,092
of expense related to stock options in fiscal years
2018,
2017
and
2016,
respectively. Included in the
$2,147,423
of expense related to stock options for fiscal

common shares in fiscal years

fair market values based on their stock price at dates of issuance multiplied by the number of common shares awarded, respectively, pursuant to the compensation programs for non-employee directors who receive a portion of their compensation as an award of Company stock and for employees who received a nominal recognition award in the form of Company stock. Stock compensation awards are made in the form of newly issued common shares of the Company.
Deferred Compensation Plan
The Company has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan providing for both Company contributions and participant deferrals of compensation. This plan is fully funded in a Rabbi Trust. All plan investments are in common shares of the Company. As of

there were
32
participants, all with fully vested account balances. A total of
241,996
common shares with a cost of
$2,110,248,
and
257,898
common shares with a cost of
$2,456,875
were held in the plan as of
June
30,
2018
and
2017,
respectively, and, accordingly, have been recorded as treasury shares. The change in the number of shares held by this plan is the net result of share purchases and sales on the open stock market for compensation deferred into the plan; shares newly issued for compensation deferred into the plan, and for distributions to terminated employees. The Company issued
67,138
new common shares for purposes of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan during fiscal
2018
and the company did
not
issue new common shares for the plan in fiscal years
2017

2016.
The Company used approximately
$106,537
and
$492,400
to purchase
15,225
and
50,579
common shares of the Company in the open stock market during fiscal years
2018
and
2017,
respectively, for either employee salary deferrals or Company contributions into the nonqualified deferred compensation plan.
The Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation is
no
longer funded by purchases in the open market of LSI stock as of
September 30, 2017.
This plan is now solely funded by newly issued shares that are authorized from the Company’s
2012
Stock Incentive Plan.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law in
December 2017
and makes numerous changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Among other changes, the Act reduces the U.S. corporate income tax rate to
21%
effective
January 1, 2018.
Because the Act became effective mid-way through the Company’s tax year, the Company will have a U.S. statutory income tax rate of
27.6%
for fiscal
2018
and will have a
21%
U.S statutory income tax rate for fiscal years thereafter. During the year ended
June 30, 2018,
the Company recognized a net deferred tax expense of
$3,322,991
as a result of the revaluation of its deferred tax balances due to the tax rate changes caused by the Act. The company completed its accounting for the income tax effects of the Act during the year ended
June 30, 2018.
The components of deferred income tax assets and (liabilities) at
June
30,
2018
and
2017
are as follows:

As of
June 30, 2018
and
2017,
the Company has recorded a deferred tax asset in the amount of
$232,000
and
$406,000,
respectively, related to U.S. Federal net operating loss and research and development credit carryovers acquired in the acquisition of Virticus Corporation. The net operating losses will expire over a period of
3
years, beginning in
June 30, 2029.
The research and development credits will expire over a period of
2
years, beginning in
June 30, 2029.
The annual utilization is limited by Internal Revenue Code Section
382.
However, the Company has determined these assets, more likely than
not,
will be realized.
Also related to the acquisition of Virticus, the Company has recorded a deferred income tax asset in the amount of
$108,000
and
$137,000,
for fiscal years
2018
and
2017,
respectively, related to a state net operating loss carryover and a state research and development credit in Oregon. The Company has determined this asset more likely than
not,
will
not
be realized and that a full valuation reserve is required. The Oregon net operating loss will expire over a period of
4
years, beginning in
June 30, 2027.
The deferred income tax asset and the valuation reserve amounts changed in fiscal
2018
due to the revaluation of the deferred items under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA).
As of
June
30,
2018
and
2017,
the Company has recorded a deferred state income tax asset in the amount of
$2,086,000
and
$1,716,000,
respectively, net of federal tax benefits related to non-refundable New York state tax credits. These credits do
not
expire, but pursuant to New York state legislation enacted in fiscal
2014,
the Company has determined that this asset, more likely than
not,
will
not
be realized. As of
June 30, 2018
and
2017,
the Company has recorded a full valuation reserve in the amount of
$2,086,000
and
$1,716,000,
respectively. The deferred state income tax asset and valuation reserve amounts were revalued in fiscal
2018
as a result of the TCJA.
During fiscal
2015,
the Company generated a capital loss of
$11,972,000
from the sale of a Canadian subsidiary. The Company utilized
$1,192,000
of the capital loss carryover in fiscal
2017.
The remaining capital loss carryover of
$10,780,000
has a full valuation allowance established against the deferred tax asset of
$2,555,000
because the Company has
no
expectation of generating capital gains to utilize the loss before it expires in
June 30, 2020.
Considering all issues discussed above, the Company has recorded valuation reserves of
$4,749,000
and
$5,556,000
as of
June
30,
2018
and
2017,
respectively.
At
June
30,
2018,
tax, interest, and penalties, net of potential federal tax benefits, were
$651,000,
$259,000,
and
$159,000
respectively, of the total reserve for uncertain tax positions of
$1,069,000.
The entire uncertain tax position of
$651,000,
net of federal tax benefit, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The liability for uncertain tax position is primarily included in Other Long-Term Liabilities, the remainder of
$322,000
is included as a current tax receivable. At
June
30,
2017,
tax, interest, and penalties, net of potential federal tax benefits, were
$657,000,
$268,000,
and
$194,000,
respectively, of the total reserve for uncertain tax positions of
$1,119,000.
The entire uncertain tax position of
$657,000,
net of federal tax benefit, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. During fiscal
2017,
the Company added uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties as a result of the acquisition of Atlas totaling
$483,000,
which is included in the
$1,119,000
above.
The Company is recording estimated interest and penalties related to potential underpayment of income taxes as a component of tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized a
$20,000
net tax benefit in fiscal
2018,
a
$78,000
net tax benefit in fiscal
2017,
and a
$26,000
net tax benefit in fiscal
2016
related to the change in reserves for uncertain tax positions. The Company recognized interest net of federal benefit and penalties of
$9,000
and
$35,000,
respectively, in fiscal
2018,
$66,000
and
$27,000,
respectively, in fiscal
2017,
and
$48,000
and
$10,000,
respectively in fiscal
2016.
The reserve for uncertain tax positions is
not
expected to change significantly in the next
twelve
months.
The fiscal
2018,
2017
and
2016
tax activity in the liability for uncertain tax positions was as follows:

third
parties. As of

– RESTRUCTURING COSTS
On
September 22, 2016,
the Company announced plans to close its lighting facility in Kansas City, Kansas. The decision was based upon the market shift away from fluorescent and other technologies and the rapid movement to LED lighting which is produced at other LSI facilities. The Company expects to continue to meet the demand for products containing fluorescent light sources as long as these products are commercially viable. All operations at the Kansas City facility ceased prior to
December 31, 2016.
Total restructuring costs related to the closure of the Kansas City facility were
$944,000
and were recorded in the lighting segment. These costs primarily included employee-related costs (primarily severance), the impairment of manufacturing equipment, plant shut down costs, costs related to the preparation of the facility for sale, legal costs, and other related costs. In addition, there was also an inventory write-down of
$485,000
recorded in fiscal
2017.
The write-down was related to inventory that was previously realizable until the decision in the
first
quarter of fiscal
2017
to shut down the Kanas City plant due to the planned curtailment of the manufacturing of fluorescent light fixtures. The Company owned the facility in Kansas City and realized a
$1,361,000
gain when the facility was sold. There have been
no
restructuring charges in fiscal
2018.
The Company also announced the consolidation of the Beaverton, Oregon facility into other LSI facilities. The light assembly of products in the Beaverton facility was moved to the Company’s Columbus, Ohio facility, and administration and engineering functions were moved to the Company’s Cincinnati, Ohio facility. This consolidation was completed
September 30, 2016.
As a result of this consolidation, restructuring charges of
$377,000
were recorded in fiscal
2017
in the lighting segment, with the majority of this representing the costs related to the remaining period of the facility’s lease and severance costs for employees who formerly worked in the Beaverton facility. There have been
no
restructuring charges in fiscal
2018.
In
November 2016,
the Company announced the consolidation of the Woonsocket, Rhode Island manufacturing operation into its North Canton, Ohio operation. The manufacturing operations in Woonsocket ceased prior to
December 31, 2016.
The Company owned the facility in Woonsocket and realized a small gain when the facility was sold in
September 2017.
Total restructuring costs related to the consolidation of the Woonsocket facility were
$452,000
in fiscal
2017
and were recorded in the Graphics Segment. These costs primarily include employee-related costs (severance), plant shut down costs, costs related to the preparation of the facility for sale, legal costs, and other related costs. There have been
no
restructuring charges in fiscal
2018.

Impairment and accelerated depreciation expense of
$354,000
was recorded in fiscal
2017
related to machinery and equipment at the Kansas City and Beaverton facilities. This expense was recorded in the Lighting Segment. There was
no
impairment expense related to the closure of the Woonsocket facility. The fair value of the equipment evaluated for impairment was determined by comparing the future undiscounted cash flows to the carrying value of the assets. The future cash flows are from the remaining use of the assets as well as the cash flows expected to result from the sale of the assets.

The goodwill resulting from the acquisition is deductible for tax purposes. The intangible assets include amounts recognized for the fair value of the trade name, customer relationships, and technology-related assets. The fair value of the intangible assets was determined based upon a combination of the market and income (discounted cash flow) approach.
