ORBCOMM Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(All amounts in thousands, except share amounts, per share amounts or unless otherwise noted)

 

 

1. Organization and Business

ORBCOMM Inc. (“ORBCOMM” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a global provider of industrial Internet of Things (“IoT”) solutions, including network connectivity, devices, device management and web reporting applications. The Company’s industrial IoT products and services are designed to track, monitor, control and enhance security for a variety of assets, such as trailers, trucks, rail cars, sea containers, power generators, fluid tanks, marine vessels, diesel or electric powered generators (“gensets”), oil and gas wells, pipeline monitoring equipment, irrigation control systems and utility meters, in the transportation and supply chain, heavy equipment, fixed asset monitoring, and maritime industries, as well as for governments. Additionally, the Company provides satellite Automatic Identification Service (“AIS”) data services to assist in vessel navigation and to improve maritime safety for government and commercial customers worldwide. Through two acquisitions in 2017, the Company added vehicle fleet management, as well as in-cab and vehicle fleet solutions to its transportation solution portfolio. The Company provides its services using multiple network platforms, including its own constellation of low-Earth orbit satellites and accompanying ground infrastructure, as well as terrestrial-based cellular communication services obtained through reseller agreements with major cellular (Tier One) wireless providers. The Company also offers customer solutions utilizing additional satellite network service options that the Company obtains through service agreements entered into with multiple mobile satellite providers. The Company’s satellite-based customer solution offerings use small, low-power, mobile satellite subscriber communicators for remote asset connectivity, and the Company’s terrestrial-based solutions utilize cellular data modems with subscriber identity modules (“SIMs”). The Company also resells service using the two-way Inmarsat plc satellite network to provide higher bandwidth, low-latency satellite products and services, leveraging the Company’s IsatDataPro technology. The Company’s customer solutions provide access to data gathered over these systems via connections to other public or private networks, including the Internet. The Company is dedicated to providing what it believes are the most versatile, leading-edge industrial IoT solutions in its markets to enable its customers to run their businesses more efficiently.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the spread of novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is inherently uncertain at the time of this report. The pandemic has resulted in travel restrictions, prohibitions of non-essential activities, disruption and shutdown of businesses and greater uncertainty in global financial markets. The Company cannot predict the extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak will negatively impact its business or operating results at this time.

 

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and investments in variable interest entities in which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The portions of majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company does not own are reflected as noncontrolling interests on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Investments

Investments in entities over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but does not have a controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company considers several factors in determining whether it has the ability to exercise significant influence with respect to investments, including, but not limited to, its direct and indirect ownership level in the voting securities, active participation on the board of directors, approval of operating and budgeting decisions and other participatory and protective rights. Under the equity method, the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of such investees is reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations. When the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee, the investment is accounted for under the cost method.

9


 

Although the Company owns interests in companies that it accounts for pursuant to the equity method, the investments in those entities had no carrying value as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company has no guarantees or other funding obligations to those entities and the Company had no equity in the earnings or losses of those investees for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Acquisition-Related and Integration Costs

Acquisition-related and integration costs include professional services expenses and identifiable integration costs directly attributable to acquisitions.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives recurring service revenues primarily from monthly fees for industrial IoT connectivity services that consist of subscriber-based and recurring monthly usage fees for each subscriber communicator or SIM activated for use on its satellite network, other satellite networks and cellular wireless networks that the Company resells to its resellers, Market Channel Partners (“MCPs”) and Market Channel Affiliates (“MCAs”), and direct customers. In addition, the Company earns recurring service revenues from subscription-based services providing recurring AIS data services to government and commercial customers worldwide. The Company also earns recurring service revenues from activations of subscriber communicators and SIMs, optional separately-priced extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period, typically one year, which are billed to the customer upon shipment of a subscriber communicator, and royalty fees relating to the manufacture of subscriber communicators under a manufacturing agreement.

Service revenues derived from usage fees are generally based upon the data transmitted by a customer, the overall number of subscriber communicators and/or SIMs activated by each customer, and whether the Company provides services through its value-added portal. Using the output method, these service revenues are recognized over time, as services are rendered, or at a point in time, based on the contract terms. AIS service revenues are generated over time from monthly subscription-based services supplying AIS data services to government and commercial customers worldwide, using the output method. Revenues from the activation of both subscriber communicators and SIMs are initially recorded as deferred revenues and are, thereafter, recognized on a ratable basis using a time-based output method, generally over three years, the estimated life of the subscriber communicator. Revenues from separately- priced extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period, typically one year, are initially recorded as deferred revenues and are, thereafter, recognized on a ratable basis using a time-based output method, generally over two to five years.

The Company earns other service revenues from installation services and engineering, technical and management support services. Revenues generated from installation services are recognized at a point in time when the services are completed. Revenues generated from engineering, technical and management support services to customers are recognized over time as the service is provided. The Company also generates other service revenues through the sale of software licenses to its customers, which are recognized at a point in time when the license is provided to the customer.

Product sales are derived from sales of complete industrial IoT subscriber communicators, including telematics devices, modems or cellular wireless SIMs (for the Company’s terrestrial-communication services) to the Company’s resellers (i.e., MCPs and MCAs) and direct customers. Product sales are recognized at a point in time when title transfers, when the products are shipped or when customers accept the products, depending on the specific contractual terms. Sales of subscriber communicators and SIMs are not subject to return, and title and risk of loss pass to the customer generally at the time of shipment.

Amounts received prior to the performance of services under customer contracts are recognized as deferred revenues and revenue recognition is deferred until such time that all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Deferred revenue as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the following:

The Company’s program with Maersk Lines, through its contract with AT&T Services, Inc., expired on December 31, 2019. The remaining deferred revenue of approximately $1,900 associated with this contract was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as an immaterial prior period adjustment. The contract was assumed as part of the WAM Technologies, LLC acquisition in 2015.

Shipping costs billed to customers are included in product sales and the related costs are included as cost of product sales.

The Company generates revenue from leasing arrangements of subscriber communicators, under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 “Leases” (“ASC 842”), using the estimated selling prices for each of the deliverables recognized.  Product and installation revenues associated with these arrangements are recognized upon shipment or installation of the subscriber communicator, depending on the specific contractual terms. Service and warranty revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, as services are rendered, or on a cash basis, if collection from the customer is not reasonably assured at the time the service is provided.

The following table summarizes the components of revenue from contracts with customers, as well as revenue recognized under ASC 842:

Revenue Recognition for Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company enters into contracts with its customers that include multiple performance obligations, which typically include subscriber communicators, monthly usage fees and optional extended warranty service agreements. The Company evaluates each item to determine whether it represents a promise to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and therefore is a separate performance obligation under FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”  If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. The Company uses an observable price to determine the stand-alone selling price for each separate performance obligation when sold on its own or a cost-plus margin approach when an observable price is not available.

If an arrangement provided to a customer has a significant and incremental discount on future revenue, such discount is considered a performance obligation and a proportionate amount of the discount would be allocated to each element based on the relative stand-alone selling price of each element, regardless of the discount. The Company has determined that arrangements provided to its customers do not include significant and incremental discounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has no financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur, the Company is required to evaluate the non-financial assets for impairment and any resulting asset impairment would require that a non-financial asset be recorded at fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement Disclosure” prioritizes inputs used in measuring fair value into a hierarchy of three levels: Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets; Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, due to the short-term nature of these items. The fair value of the Senior Secured Notes, as defined below, is based on observable relevant market information. Fluctuation between the carrying amount and the fair value of the Senior Secured Notes for the period presented is associated with changes in market interest rates. The

11


 

Company may redeem all or part of the Senior Secured Notes at any time or from time to time at its option at specified redemption prices that would include “make-whole” premiums. Refer to “Note 9 – Notes Payable” for more information.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes are shown in the following table:

The fair value of the note payable - related party, $1,275 book value at June 30, 2020, has a de minimis value.

Concentration of Risk

The Company’s customers are primarily commercial organizations. Accounts receivable are generally unsecured.

Accounts receivable are due in accordance with payment terms set forth in contracts negotiated with customers. Amounts due from customers are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts are past due, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligations to the Company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are deemed uncollectible.

 

Two customers, Carrier Corporation and Komatsu Ltd., generated 21.1% and 10.4%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated total revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. One customer, Carrier Corporation generated 15.0% of the Company’s consolidated total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no customers who generated revenues greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated total revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019.  

 

One customer, Schlumberger, Inc., generated 10.3% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2020. There were no customers who generated accounts receivable greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019.  

The Company is dependent on one vendor, Sanmina Corporation (“Sanmina”), a contract manufacturer with significant operations in Mexico, for the manufacture of subscriber communicators that the Company designs and sells. For the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, approximately $16,902, or 92.3%, and $17,388, or 63.5%, respectively, of the Company’s product sales was generated from the sale of the Company’s core products produced by Sanmina. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, approximately $38,894, or 88.5%, and $35,312, or 64.9%, respectively, of the Company’s product sales was generated from the sale of the Company’s core products produced by Sanmina.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company did not maintain in-orbit insurance coverage for its ORBCOMM Generation 1 or ORBCOMM Generation 2 satellites to address the risk of potential systemic anomalies, failures or catastrophic events affecting its satellite constellation.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined on a weighted-average cost basis. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, inventory, net of inventory obsolescence, consisted primarily of finished goods and purchased parts to be utilized by its contract manufacturer totaling $31,375 and $33,379, respectively, and raw materials totaling $6,922 and $6,502, respectively. The Company reviews inventory quantities on hand, evaluates the realizability of inventories and adjusts the carrying value, as necessary, based on forecasted product demand. A provision, recorded in cost of product sales on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, is made for potential losses on slow-moving and obsolete inventories when identified.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the underlying net tangible and intangible assets of the Company’s acquisitions. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level, which is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment. The Company operates in one reportable segment which is its only reporting unit.

The Company considered the current economic condition as part of the COVID-19 pandemic as a triggering event to test for any goodwill impairment. The Company performed a Step 1 analysis and found no indication of impairment as of March 31, 2020.

12


 

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

Property and equipment and other long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company measures recoverability by comparing the carrying amounts of the assets to the projected undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent the carrying values exceed the fair values.

The Company’s satellite constellation and related assets are evaluated as a single asset group whenever facts or circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment are identified, recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing their carrying amounts to the projected cash flows the assets are expected to generate.

Determining whether an impairment has occurred typically requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including the allocation of cash flows to assets or asset groups and, if required, estimates of fair values for those assets or asset groups.

If a satellite were to fail while in-orbit, the resulting loss would be charged to expense in the period it is determined that the satellite is not recoverable. Refer to “Note 5 – Satellite Network and Other Equipment, Net” for more information.

Warranty Costs

The Company accrues for warranty coverage on product sales estimated at the time of sale based on historical costs to repair or replace products for customers compared to historical product sales. The warranty accrual is included in accrued liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Separately-priced extended warranty coverage is recorded as warranty revenue over the term of the extended warranty coverage and the related warranty costs are recorded as incurred during the coverage period.

Warranty coverage that includes additional services, such as repairs and maintenance of the product, is treated as a separate performance obligation and the related warranty and repairs/maintenance costs are recorded as incurred.

Refer to “Note 7 – Accrued Liabilities” for more information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. ASU 2016-13 introduces the current expected credit loss (CECL) model, which requires an entity to measure credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets. Upon initial recognition, an entity is required to estimate a credit loss expected over the life of an exposure. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

 

3. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s stock-based compensation plan consists of its 2016 Long-Term Incentives Plan (the “2016 LTIP”). As of June 30, 2020, there were 1,180,469 shares available for grant under the 2016 LTIP.

Total stock-based compensation recorded by the Company for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1,471 and $1,661, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $3,150 and $3,743, respectively. Total capitalized stock-based compensation for the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $134 and $123, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $247 and $458, respectively.

For the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not record any stock-based compensation expense related to performance-based SARs. As of June 30, 2020, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to these SARs expected to be recognized.

The intrinsic value of the performance-based SARs exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $73.

The fair value of each time-based and performance-based SAR award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions described below. For the periods indicated, the expected volatility was based on the Company’s historical volatility over the expected terms of the SAR awards. Estimated forfeitures were based on voluntary and involuntary termination behavior, as well as an analysis of actual forfeitures. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of the grant over the expected term of the SAR awards. The Company did not grant time-based or performance-based SARs during the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Market Performance Units

The Company grants Market Performance Units (“MPUs”) to its senior executives based on stock price performance over a three-year period measured on December 31 of each year in the performance period. The MPUs will vest in equal installments at the end of each year in the performance period only if the Company satisfies the stock price performance targets and the senior executives continue their employment through the dates the Compensation Committee has determined that the targets have been achieved. The value of the MPUs that will be earned each year ranges up to 15% of each of the senior executive’s base salaries in the year of the grant depending on the Company’s stock price performance target for that year. The value of the MPUs can be paid in either cash, common stock or a combination of cash and common stock, at the Company’s discretion. The MPUs are classified as a liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are revalued at the end of each reporting period based on the awards’ fair value over a three-year period.

As the MPUs contain both market and service conditions, they have been treated as a series of three separate awards, or tranches, for purposes of recognizing stock-based compensation expense. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a tranche-by-tranche basis over the requisite service period for each specific tranche. The Company estimated the fair values of the MPUs using a Monte Carlo simulation model that used the following assumptions:

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to these MPUs of $87 and $64, respectively.  

As of June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $42 and $73 in accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities related to the MPUs, respectively, on its condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2019, the Company recorded $0 and $28 in accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities related to the MPUs, respectively, on its condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The portions of the 2019, 2018 and 2017 MPU awards with respect to the 2019 performance year lapsed unvested. In January 2019, the Company issued 60,885 shares of common stock as payment in connection with MPUs for achieving the fiscal year 2018, 2017 and 2016 MPU awards’ stock performance targets with respect to the 2018 performance year.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On February 16, 2016, the Company’s board of directors adopted the ORBCOMM Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on April 20, 2016. Under the terms of the ESPP, 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are available for issuance and eligible employees may have up to 10% of their gross pay deducted from their payroll, up to a maximum of $25 per year, to purchase shares of common stock at a discount of up to 15% of its fair market value, subject to certain conditions and limitations. Purchases of shares of common stock under the ESPP are made twice a year at six-month intervals. For the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP of $65 and $81, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to the ESPP of $133 and $143, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, 166,580 shares of the Company’s common stock were purchased under the ESPP at a price of $2.58 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 113,703 shares of the Company’s common stock were purchased under the ESPP at a price of $5.68 per share.

4. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. Common Stockholders

The Company accounts for earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260 “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”) and related guidance, which requires two calculations of EPS to be disclosed: basic and diluted. The numerator in calculating basic and diluted EPS is an amount equal to the net income (loss) attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. common stockholders for the periods presented. The denominator in calculating basic EPS is the weighted average shares outstanding for the respective periods. The denominator in calculating diluted EPS is the weighted average shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of stock option grants, unvested SAR and RSU grants and shares of Series A convertible preferred stock, for the respective periods. The following table sets forth the basic and diluted EPS calculations for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

8. Note Payable - Related Party

In connection with the acquisition of a majority interest in Satcom International Group plc in 2005, the Company recorded an indebtedness to OHB Technology A.G. (formerly known as OHB Teledata A.G.), a stockholder of the Company. At each of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the principal balance of the note payable was €1,138, with a carrying value of $1,275. The carrying value was based on the note’s estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. The difference between the carrying value and principal balance was being amortized to interest expense over the six-year estimated life, which ended on September 30, 2011. This note does not bear interest and has no fixed repayment term. Repayment of the note will be made from the distribution profits (as defined in the note agreement) of ORBCOMM Europe LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The note has been classified as long-term, as the Company does not expect any repayments to be required prior to June 30, 2021.

 

 

9. Notes Payable

Senior Secured Notes

On April 10, 2017, the Company issued $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.0% senior secured notes due 2024 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 10, 2017, among the Company, certain of its domestic subsidiaries party thereto (the “Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Indenture”). The Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors, and are secured on a first priority basis by (i) pledges of capital stock of certain of the Company’s directly- and indirectly-owned subsidiaries; and (ii) substantially all of the other property and assets of the Company and the Guarantors, to the extent a first priority security interest is able to be granted or perfected therein, and subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions, and an intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent for the Company’s revolving credit facility described below. Interest payments are due on the Senior Secured Notes semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2017.

19


 

The Company has the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2020, at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. The Company also had the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time before April 1, 2020 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. In addition, at any time before April 1, 2020, the Company could have redeemed up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, with the proceeds from certain equity issuances.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various exceptions and baskets as set forth in the Indenture, including the incurrence by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries of indebtedness under potential new credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50,000.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $5,431. For the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, amortization of the debt issuance costs was $194 and $388, respectively.  The Company recorded charges of $5,194 and $10,388 to interest expense on its condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Senior Secured Notes.

Revolving Credit Facility

 

On December 18, 2017, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase”), as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25,000 for working capital and general corporate purposes and matures on December 18, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). On June 25, 2020, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into a first amendment to the senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Amendment”) with JPMorgan Chase, as administrative agent. The primary purpose of the Amendment was to modify the maximum net leverage ratio (total funded debt less cash and cash equivalents (up to $50,000) divided by trailing 12-months adjusted EBITDA) and minimum interest coverage ratio (trailing 12-months adjusted EBITDA divided by trailing 12-months cash interest expense) to provide the Company with access to additional liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic and to increase the applicable interest margins.  Effective June 25, 2020, at the Company’s election, extensions of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at an alternative base rate or an adjusted LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 2.50% in the case of alternative base rate loans and 3.50% in the case of adjusted LIBOR loans. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets under a security agreement among the Company, its subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase, subject to an intercreditor agreement with the indenture trustee for the Senior Secured Notes. The Revolving Credit Facility has no scheduled principal amortization until the maturity date. Subject to the terms set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time prior to the maturity date.

 

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to funding, covenants and events of default. The Revolving Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various baskets as set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Company must also comply with covenants of not exceeding a specific leverage ratio and maintaining a minimum interest coverage ratio. Failure to comply with the covenants could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could allow the lenders, to require repayment in full of all principal outstanding and interest accrued under the Revolving Credit Facility or could create a cross default under the Senior Secured Notes. If the Company fails to repay such amounts, the noteholders or lenders, as applicable, may foreclose on substantially all of the Company’s assets which the Company has pledged. If the Company is unable to cure the default, the Company may need to repay the debt and find other sources of financing, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

20


 

At June 30, 2020, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. While the Company does not currently expect to draw on the Revolving Credit Facility, the Amendment provides additional flexibility and margin in the allowable financial covenant ratios. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

 

Paycheck Protection Program

As previously reported, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company received proceeds from a loan in the amount of $7,588 (the “PPP Loan”) from JPMorgan Chase, as lender, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The Company believes that it qualified to apply for and receive the PPP Loan pursuant to the PPP under the provisions of the CARES Act and the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) guidance in effect at that time. In light of the Company entering into the amendment to its Revolving Credit Facility to provide it with access to additional liquidity, its improved outlook on its ability to generate cash from operations in the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the evolving requirements and the new guidance issued by the SBA subsequent to its receipt of the PPP Loan, the Company repaid the full amount of the PPP Loan received and any accrued interest on June 25, 2020. The PPP Loan was prepayable at any time prior to the maturity date without any prepayment penalties.

 

10. Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

The Company currently has 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized.

 

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company did not issue dividends of Series A convertible preferred stock to the holders of the Series A convertible preferred stock. As of June 30, 2020, dividends in arrears were $16.

Common Stock

As of June 30, 2020, the Company has reserved 14,196,320 shares of common stock for future issuances related to employee stock compensation plans.

On August 5, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $25,000 of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock through open market transactions and privately negotiated transactions, until August 5, 2020. In addition, open market repurchases of common stock may be made pursuant to applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18, as well as Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 836,904 shares at an average share price of $2.98. As of June 30, 2020, authorization for approximately $13,112 of the Company’s common stock remained available for future purchases under the repurchase program. In mid-March 2020, the Company suspended further purchases given the economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

 

11. Segment Information

The Company operates in one reportable segment, industrial IoT services. Other than satellites in orbit, goodwill and intangible assets, long-lived assets outside of the United States are not significant. The Company’s foreign exchange exposure is limited as approximately 88% of the Company’s consolidated revenue is collected in U.S. dollars. The following table summarizes revenues on a percentage basis by geographic region, based on the region in which the customer is located.

12. Income Taxes

For the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had an income tax benefit of $554 and an income tax expense of $1,140, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had an income tax benefit of $1 and an income tax expense of $1,850, respectively. The decrease in the income tax provision for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily related to amended tax filings and provision to tax return true-ups for multiple international entities.  This resulted in an international tax benefit recorded in these periods.  In addition, the change in geographical mix of income, decreased taxable non-U.S. earnings before income taxes when compared to the prior year periods.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company maintained a valuation allowance against all of its net deferred tax assets, excluding goodwill, attributable to operations in the United States, as the realization was not considered more likely than not.

There were no changes to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company does not expect any significant changes to its unrecognized tax positions during the next twelve months.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

 

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is involved in various litigation matters involving claims incidental to its business and acquisitions, including employment matters, acquisition-related claims, patent infringement and contractual matters, among other issues. While the outcome of any such litigation matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management currently believes that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition. The Company records reserves related to legal matters when losses related to such litigation or contingencies are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Airtime Credits

In 2001, in connection with the organization of ORBCOMM Europe and the reorganization of the ORBCOMM business in Europe, the Company agreed to grant certain country representatives in Europe approximately $3,736 in airtime credits. The Company has not recorded the airtime credits as a liability for the following reasons: (i) the Company has no obligation to pay the unused airtime credits if they are not utilized and (ii) the airtime credits are earned by the country representatives only when the Company generates revenue from the country representatives. The airtime credits have no expiration date. Accordingly, the Company is recording airtime credits as services are rendered and these airtime credits are recorded net of revenues from the country representatives. For both the quarters ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, airtime credits used totaled approximately $7. For both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, airtime credits used totaled approximately $15. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, unused credits granted by the Company were approximately $1,903 and $1,933, respectively.

 

14. Leases

Lessee

The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for land, office space, data centers and storage facilities, as well as office equipment and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of less than one year to 13 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to five years, and some of which include options to terminate the lease within one year. The Company considered these options in determining the lease term used to establish the Company’s right-of use assets and lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The operating lease ROU assets also include any lease payments made in advance of lease commencements and exclude lease incentives. The lease terms used in the calculations of the operating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities include options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise those options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

22


 

As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally not accounted for separately.

Components of lease expense are as follows:

Although most of the Company’s revenue from its product sales comes from the sale of subscriber communicators, the Company also leases some subscriber communicators to certain customers. The Company determines the existence of a lease when the customer controls the use of the identified product for a period of time defined in the lease agreement. The Company’s leases range in duration between three to five years, with payment generally collected in monthly installments. Refer to “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for more information.

The Company classifies these leases as sales-type leases and recognizes revenue and cost of product sales upon delivery or installation, depending on the specific contractual terms. The Company’s leases include certain termination fees, as defined in the lease agreements, and do not typically include purchase rights at the end of the lease.

Ltd., John Deere, Komatsu Ltd., and Volvo Construction Equipment; vertical market technology integrators known as value-added resellers (“VARs”) and international value-added resellers (“IVARs”), such as American Innovations, and value-added solutions providers, such as Onixsat, Satlink and Sascar (collectively referred to as MCPs); and end-to-end solutions customers such as Carrier Corporation, C&S Wholesale, Canadian National Railways, CR England, Hub Group, Inc., JB Hunt Transport Services, Inc., KLLM Transport Services, Marten Transport, Prime Inc., Swift Transportation, Target, Tropicana, Tyson Foods, Walmart and Werner Enterprises.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, accounting for business combinations, goodwill, intangible assets, satellite network and other equipment, long-lived assets, capitalized development costs, income taxes, warranty costs, loss contingencies and the value of securities underlying stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from our estimates and could have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, see Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during 2020.  

Revenues

We derive service revenues primarily from monthly fees for industrial IoT connectivity services that consist of subscriber-based and recurring monthly usage fees for each subscriber communicator or SIM activated for use on our satellite network, as well as other satellite networks and cellular wireless networks that we resell to our customers (i.e., our MCPs, MCAs and direct customers). Usage fees are generally based upon the data transmitted by a customer and the overall number of subscriber communicators and SIMs activated by each customer and whether we provide services through our value-added portal. Service revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, as services are rendered, or on a cash basis, if collection from the customer is not reasonably assured at the time the service is provided. We also generate AIS service revenues from subscription-based services supplying recurring AIS data to customers and resellers, as well as monthly subscription-based service revenues from our platform that provides operational and transaction data management and business intelligence. In addition, we earn service revenues from: optional, separately-priced extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period of typically one year; installation services; royalty fees relating to the manufacture of subscriber communicators under a manufacturing agreement; and fees from providing engineering, technical and management support services to customers.

We derive product sales primarily from sales of complete industrial IoT telematics devices, modems and cellular wireless SIMs (for our terrestrial-communication services) to our resellers (i.e., our MCPs and MCAs) and direct customers. Revenues generated from product sales are either recognized when the products are shipped or when customers accept the product, depending on the specific contractual terms. Shipping costs billed to customers are included in product sales and the related costs are included as cost of product sales.

Revenues generated from leasing arrangements of subscriber communicators are recognized using the estimated selling price for each deliverable in the arrangement.  Product and installation revenues associated with these arrangements are recognized upon shipment or installation of the subscriber communicator, depending on the specific contractual terms.  Service and warranty revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, as services are rendered, or on a cash basis, if collection from the customer is not reasonably assured at the time the service is provided.

26


 

Amounts received prior to the performance of services under customer contracts are recognized as deferred revenues and revenue recognition is deferred until such time that all revenue recognition criteria have been met.

The table below presents our revenues for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, together with the percentage of total revenue represented by each revenue category:

We derive recurring service revenues from monthly fees from industrial IoT connectivity services that consist of subscriber-based, recurring monthly usage fees for each subscriber communicator or SIM activated for use on our satellite network, other satellite networks, and cellular wireless networks that we resell to our customers and AIS service revenues from subscription-based services supplying AIS data to customers and resellers. In addition, we derive recurring service revenues from extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period of typically one year, royalty fees from third parties for the use of our proprietary communications protocol recognized at a point in time when the third party notifies us of the units it has manufactured and a unique serial number is assigned to each unit and activations of subscriber communicators and SIMs. We derive other service revenues from installation services, fees from providing engineering, technical and management support services to customers and the sale of software licenses to our customers.

 

The decrease in service revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to the expiration of our contract with AT&T Services, Inc. (“AT&T”), providing our services to Maersk Lines (“Maersk”), as described below.

 

As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately 2,220,000 billable subscriber communicators compared to approximately 2,512,000 billable subscriber communicators as of June 30, 2019, a decrease of 11.6%. As of December 31, 2019, excluding the billable subscriber communicators issued by Maersk described below, we had approximately 2,231,000 billable subscriber communicators. Separately, at year-end 2019, we deactivated approximately 85,000 non-revenue generating device communicators that were not actively transmitting data or were in a suspend/test mode. This action was performed in connection with our platform convergence project. Subsequent to these adjustments, we had approximately 2,144,000 billable subscriber communicators as of December 31, 2019. From December 31, 2019 through June 30, 2020, we added 76,000 billable subscriber communicators.

 

27


 

Our program with Maersk, through our contract with AT&T, expired on December 31, 2019. The remaining deferred revenue of approximately $1.9 million associated with this contract was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as an immaterial prior period adjustment. The contract was assumed as part of the WAM Technologies, LLC acquisition in 2015.

Service revenue growth can be impacted by the customary lag between subscriber communicator activations and recognition of service revenue from these units, as well as the mix of new subscriber activations in the period.

Cost of services is comprised of expenses to operate our network, such as payroll and related costs, including stock-based compensation, installation costs, and usage fees to third-party networks, but excludes depreciation and amortization discussed below. The decreases in cost of services for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the prior year period, were primarily due to our cost reduction initiatives implemented throughout the Company.

Cost of product sales includes the purchase price of subscriber communicators and SIMs sold, costs of warranty obligations and shipping charges, as well as operational costs to fulfill customer orders, including costs for employees and inventory management. The decrease in cost of product sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, was primarily due to the decrease in product sales and the lower costs associated with new product offerings and the mix of product shipments, compared to the prior year period. The decrease in cost of product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020, was primarily due to the decrease in product sales and the lower costs associated with new product offerings and the mix of product shipments, as well as other non-recurring benefits related to warranties and purchase price variances, compared to the prior year period.

The increase in other expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to lower interest income in the current year period. The increase in other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to increased other income (expense) related to the change in foreign currency translation and a reduction in interest income during the current year period. We believe our foreign exchange exposure is limited as a majority of our revenue is collected in U.S. dollars.  

Income Taxes

For the quarter ended June 30, 2020, our income tax benefit was $0.6 million, compared to an income tax expense of $1.1 million for the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, our income tax benefit was $1,000, compared to an income tax expense of $1.9 million for the prior year period. The decreases in the income tax provision for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily related to amended tax filings and provision to tax return true-ups for multiple international entities.  This resulted in an international tax benefit recorded in these periods.  In addition, the change in geographical mix of income, decreased taxable non-U.S. earnings before income taxes when compared to the prior year periods.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we maintained a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets primarily attributable to operations in the United States, as the realization of such assets was not considered more likely than not.

Net Loss

For the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we had a net loss of $6.6 million compared to a net loss of $6.4 million in the prior year period, primarily due to decreased revenue, offset, in part, by decreased costs associated with our products and services, as described above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we had a net loss of $13.5 million compared to a net loss of $11.8 million in the prior year period, primarily due to decreased revenue, offset, in part, by decreased costs associated with our products and services, as described above.

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests relate to earnings and losses attributable to noncontrolling shareholders.

Net Loss Attributable to ORBCOMM Inc.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we had a net loss attributable to our company of $6.7 million compared to a net loss of $6.4 million in the prior year period.  For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we had a net loss attributable to our company of $13.6 million, compared to a net loss of $11.9 million in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our liquidity requirements arise from our working capital needs, our obligation to make scheduled payments of interest on our indebtedness and our need to fund growth initiatives and make capital expenditures to support our current operations and to facilitate growth and expansion. We have financed our operations and expansion with cash flows from operating activities, sales of our common stock through public offerings and private placements of debt. At June 30, 2020, we have an accumulated deficit of $224.6 million. Our primary source of liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents totaling $62.4 million at June 30, 2020 and an unused $25.0 million Revolving Credit Facility under the Revolving Credit Agreement, as described below, available for use for working capital and general business purposes, which we believe will be sufficient to provide working capital, make interest payments and fund capital expenditures to support operations and facilitate growth and expansion for the next twelve months.

As previously reported, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, we received proceeds from a loan in the amount of $7.6 million (the “PPP Loan”) from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase”), as lender, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). We believe that we qualified to apply for and receive the PPP Loan pursuant to the PPP under the provisions of the CARES Act and the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) guidance in effect at that time. In light of our entering into the amendment to our revolving credit facility described below under “—Future Liquidity and Capital Resources” to provide us with access to additional liquidity, our improved outlook on our ability to generate cash from operations in the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the evolving requirements and the new guidance issued by the SBA subsequent to our receipt of the PPP Loan, we repaid the full amount of the PPP Loan received and any accrued interest on June 25, 2020. The PPP Loan was prepayable at any time prior to the maturity date without any prepayment penalties.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $20.8 million, resulting from a net loss of $13.5 million, offset by non-cash items including $25.8 million for depreciation and amortization and $3.2 million for stock-based compensation. Working capital activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 provided cash of $0.9 million, primarily due to a decrease of $9.3 million in accounts receivable relating to decreased revenues and timing of receivables, a decrease of $1.8 million in prepaid expenses and other assets and a decrease of $1.6 million in inventories, offset by a decrease of $9.4 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily related to timing of payments, a decrease of $1.3 million in deferred revenue and a decrease of $1.1 million in other liabilities.

Cash provided by our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $10.9 million, resulting from a net loss of $11.8 million and cash used by working capital of $5.6 million, offset by non-cash items including $25.2 million for depreciation and amortization and $3.7 million for stock-based compensation. Working capital activities primarily consisted of an increase of $2.6 million in accounts receivable relating to timing of receivables, an increase of $2.6 million in prepaid expenses and other assets and a decrease of $2.4 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily related to timing of payments, offset, in part, by an increase of $1.6 million in other liabilities.

Investing Activities

Cash used in our investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $10.7 million, resulting from capital expenditures and capital expenditures related to our subscription model during the period.

Cash used in our investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $10.6 million, resulting from capital expenditures during the period.

Financing Activities

Cash used in our financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $2.1 million, due to payments of $2.5 million for purchases of common stock under our share repurchase program, offset, in part, by $0.4 million from the sale of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan.

Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $0.6 million, due to proceeds from the sale of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan.

Future Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, along with expected cash flows from operating activities and funds available under our Revolving Credit Facility described below (subject to applicable covenant limitations), will be sufficient to provide working capital, make interest payments and fund growth initiatives and make capital expenditures to support operations and facilitate growth and expansion for the next twelve months.

On April 10, 2017, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2024. The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of April 10, 2017, among us, certain of our domestic subsidiaries party thereto (the Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent. The Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors, and are secured on a first priority basis by (i) pledges of capital stock of certain of our directly- and indirectly-owned subsidiaries; and (ii) substantially all of our and our Guarantors’ other property and assets, to the extent a first priority security interest is able to be granted or perfected therein, and subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions, and an intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent for our Revolving Credit Facility. Interest payments are due on the Senior Secured Notes semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2017.

 

We have the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2020, at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. We also had the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time before April 1, 2020 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. In addition, at any time before April 1, 2020, we could have redeemed up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, with the proceeds from certain equity issuances.

 

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various exceptions and baskets as set forth in the Indenture, including the incurrence by us and our restricted subsidiaries of indebtedness under potential new credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50 million.

On December 18, 2017, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0 million for working capital and general corporate purposes and matures on December 18, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”). On June 25, 2020, we and certain of our subsidiaries, as guarantors, entered into a first amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with JPMorgan Chase, as administrative agent. The primary purpose of the Amendment was to modify the maximum net leverage ratio (total funded debt less cash and cash equivalents (up to $50 million) divided by trailing 12-months adjusted EBITDA) and minimum interest coverage ratio (trailing 12-months adjusted EBITDA divided by trailing 12-months cash interest expense) to provide us with access to additional liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic and to increase the applicable interest margins. Effective June, 25, 2020, at our election, extensions of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at an alternative base rate or an adjusted LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 2.50% in the case of alternative base rate loans and 3.50% in the case of adjusted LIBOR loans. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets under a security agreement among the Company, the applicable subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase, subject to an intercreditor agreement with the indenture trustee for the Senior Secured Notes. The Revolving Credit Facility has no scheduled principal amortization until the maturity date. Subject to the terms set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement, we may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time prior to the maturity date.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets, subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various baskets as set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement. We must also comply with covenants of not exceeding a specific leverage ratio and maintaining a minimum interest coverage ratio. Failure to comply with the covenants could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could allow the lenders to require repayment in full of all principal outstanding and interest accrued under the Revolving Credit Facility or could create a cross default under the Senior Secured Notes. If we fail to repay such amounts, the noteholders or lenders, as applicable, may foreclose on substantially all of our assets which we have pledged. If we are unable to cure the default, we may need to repay the debt and find other sources of financing, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

At June 30, 2020, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. While we do not currently expect to draw on the Revolving Credit Facility, the Amendment provides additional flexibility and margin in the allowable financial covenant ratios. As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is defined as earnings attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. before interest income (expense), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and loss on debt extinguishment. We believe EBITDA is useful to our management and investors in evaluating our operating performance because it is one of the primary measures we use to evaluate the economic productivity of our operations, including our ability to obtain and maintain our customers, our ability to operate our business effectively, the efficiency of our employees and the profitability associated with their performance. It also helps our management and investors to meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period on a consistent basis by removing the impact of our financing transactions and the depreciation and amortization impact of capital investments from our operating results. In addition, our management uses EBITDA in presentations to our board of directors to enable it to have the same measurement of operating performance used by management and for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA, defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, noncontrolling interests, impairment loss, non-capitalized satellite launch and in-orbit insurance and acquisition-related and integration costs, is useful to investors to evaluate our core operating results and financial performance because it excludes items that are significant non-cash or non-recurring expenses reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. While we consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be important measures of operating performance, they should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, or superior to, net loss or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different than EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA measures presented by other companies.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2020 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2019, EBITDA decreased $1.7 million, while net loss attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. increased $0.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA decreased $2.2 million.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, EBITDA decreased $2.6 million, while net loss attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. increased $1.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.7 million.

Non-GAAP Gross Margin

Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin is defined as Non-GAAP Service gross profit divided by service revenues. Non-GAAP Service gross profit is defined as service revenues, minus cost of services (including depreciation and amortization expense) plus depreciation and amortization expense. Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin is defined as Non-GAAP Product gross profit divided by product sales. Non-GAAP Product gross profit is defined as product sales, minus cost of product sales (including depreciation and amortization expense) plus depreciation and amortization expense. We believe that Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin are useful to evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period on a consistent basis by removing the depreciation and amortization impact of capital investments from our operating results.

Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin are not performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  While we consider Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin to be important measures of operating performance, they should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different than Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin measures presented by other companies.

GAAP Service Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 56.4% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 55.3% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 67.3% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 66.0% in the prior year period. GAAP Service Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 56.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 55.5% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 67.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 66.3% in the prior year period. The aforementioned improvements were primarily due to lower costs achieved through the Company’s 2020 cost reduction plan.

GAAP Product Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 25.0% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 25.8% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 27.8% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to 28.4% in the prior year period.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

 

We are involved in various litigation matters involving claims incidental to our business and acquisitions, including employment matters, acquisition-related claims, patent infringement and contractual matters, among other issues. Management currently believes that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. We record reserves related to legal matters when losses related to such litigation or contingencies are both probable and reasonably estimable.  

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

As of June 30, 2020, there have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, except that the following risk factors under the heading “Risks Related to Our Business” are replaced in their entirety with the following:

Risks Related to Our Business

 

We face risks and uncertainties related to the current COVID-19 pandemic.

 

A novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) surfaced in late 2019 and has spread around the world, including to the United States. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are expected to adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The magnitude of the impact of COVID-19 is unpredictable; consequently, the impact it will have on the Company’s future results is uncertain.

Numerous governmental jurisdictions, including the States of New Jersey and Florida, where we maintain our principal executive offices and regional executive offices, respectively, and those in which many of our U.S. and international offices are based, imposed “shelter-in-place” orders, quarantines, executive orders and similar governmental orders and restrictions for their residents to control the spread of COVID-19. Most states and the federal government, including the States of New Jersey and Florida, together with foreign jurisdictions in which we have operation centers, declared a state of emergency related to the spread of COVID-19. Such orders or restrictions have resulted in business closures, work stoppages, slowdowns and delays, work-from-home policies, travel restrictions and cancellation of events, among other effects, thereby negatively impacting our customers, employees, and offices, among others. These challenges have been, and are anticipated to continue being, difficult to manage in foreign jurisdictions in which we have offices due to, among other things, a reduced ability to enable efficient and secure work-from-home environments. Although the restrictions have been or are in the process of being lifted in many jurisdictions, there has been a recent resurgence of COVID-19 cases in several states, including Florida, and it remains unclear whether restrictions may be reinstituted and the impact they may have on our Company.

Our business is heavily dependent on Sanmina Corporation (“Sanmina”), a contract manufacturer with significant operations in Mexico, for the manufacture of the subscriber communicators that we design and sell. Currently, Sanmina is permitted to continue to manufacture our subscriber communicators as our products are used within the communications sector (providing services using terrestrial, satellite, and wireless transmissions systems) and designated as essential “critical infrastructure sectors” as defined by the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). Sanmina had recently been limited to work at 80% capacity to protect the health of its workers; however, we cannot provide any guarantee that our contract manufacturer will continue to be permitted to manufacturer our ordered levels of demand. Sanmina’s ability to manufacture our products is also dependent upon electronic component availability. The prioritization of electronic components towards medical and/or emergency products could negatively affect Sanmina’s ability to manufacture the Company’s products.

Many of our customers, including heavy equipment manufacturers, transportation providers, and oil and gas customers have faced, and will continue to face, substantial challenges in operating in the current environment. For example, many of our heavy equipment and refrigerated original equipment manufacturers temporarily closed factories due to employee health concerns from COVID-19. Based on industry data, loads for transportation of goods are also significantly down as a result of the economic shutdown caused by COVID-19. The strength of the U.S. dollar is also a concern for our foreign customers, especially for our large satellite value-added reseller customers in Brazil where the Real is weak. This has caused us to temporarily adjust service revenue billing rates to accommodate unfavorable exchange rates. Further, a recession or prolonged economic contraction as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic could also harm the business and results of operations of our enterprise customers, resulting in potential business closures, layoffs of employees and a significant increase in unemployment in the United States and elsewhere, which may continue even after the pandemic is contained. The occurrence of any such events may lead to a reduction in the capital and operating budgets our customers have available to invest in our industrial IoT solutions, which could reduce our revenue and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The widespread COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant volatility and uncertainty in U.S and international financial markets, restricting our ability to access capital markets in a manner that would not be significantly detrimental to our business or at all, which could negatively affect our liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect our business and the value of our common stock. For example, the price of our common stock saw a 52-week low price of $1.24 per share as recently as on March 24, 2020.

The global outbreak of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve. We have taken steps intended to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and to protect our global workforce, including, but not limited to: moving a significant portion of our workforce to remote operations, enacting social distancing and hygiene guidelines at our offices, as set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and World Health Organization, discontinuing company travel and events, among others. Although we believe we have taken the appropriate actions, we cannot guarantee that these measures will mitigate any or all negative effects of the pandemic. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar health epidemic on the Company is highly uncertain and subject to change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and therefore, we cannot predict the full extent to which our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity will ultimately be impacted.

The failure of our information technology systems could disrupt our business operations which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The operation of our business depends on our information technology systems. We rely on our information technology systems to effectively manage, among other things, our subsidiaries’ customer interface, as well as our business data, communications, supply chain, inventory management, customer order entry and order fulfillment, transactions processing, financial results summaries and reporting, human resources benefits and payroll management, regulatory, legal and tax compliance and other processes and data necessary to manage our business. We use technology to provide secure transmission of confidential information, including our business data and customer information. To achieve our strategic objectives and to remain competitive, we must continue to develop and enhance our information systems. This may require the acquisition of equipment and software and the development, either internally or through independent consultants, of new proprietary software. Our inability to design, develop, implement and utilize, in a cost-effective manner, information systems that provide the capabilities necessary for us to compete effectively, could make us less competitive, increase our costs and adversely affect our business. The failure of our information technology systems, whether ours or those of third parties with whom we contract to support the provision of our services, to perform as we anticipate could disrupt our business and could result in, among other things, transaction errors, processing inefficiencies, loss of data and the loss of sales and customers, which could cause our business and results of operations to suffer. In addition, our information technology systems may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from circumstances beyond our control, including, without limitation, fire, natural disasters, power outages, system failures, system conversions, security breaches, cyber-attacks, viruses, ransomware and/or human error. These risks to our information technology systems may be increased while many of our personnel are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the event of any such failure, damage or interruption of our information technology systems, we could be required to make a significant investment to fix or replace our information technology systems, and we could experience interruptions in our ability to service our customers. Any such damage or interruption could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. While we have experienced and expect to continue to experience threats and attacks on our information technology systems seeking to gain unauthorized access to our systems or data or to cause disruptions in service, including through ransomware, based on information known to date, past threats and attacks have not had a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Security problems with our networks, data processing systems, software products, and those systems or services of our third-party providers, which may also be vulnerable to security risks, could cause increased cyber-security protection costs and general service costs, harm our reputation, and result in liability and increased expense for litigation, regulatory fines and diversion of management time.

We process and retain large amounts of customer information. Our software products also enable our customers to store and process data. We have included security features in our products and processes that are intended to protect the privacy and integrity of data, including confidential client data, and we expect the secure transmission of data over public networks. Security for our products and processes is critical given the confidential nature of the information contained in our systems. We also rely on employees in our network operations centers, data centers, and support operations to follow our procedures when handling such information. However, our network and those of our third-party service providers (including data storage facilities), banks, and our customers may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses, ransomware and other security problems. It is possible that our security controls, our selection and training of employees, and other practices we follow may not prevent the improper disclosure of or access to information. Persons who circumvent security measures could wrongfully obtain or use information on the network or cause interruptions, delays or malfunctions in our operations, or misappropriation of assets, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Any unauthorized access, computer viruses, ransomware, accidental or intentional release of confidential or personal information or other disruptions could result in increased costs, customer dissatisfaction leading to loss of customers and revenues, and fines and other liabilities. Also, such unauthorized access, disclosure or disruption could harm our reputation and subject us to liability in regulatory proceedings and private litigation, resulting in increased costs or loss of revenue. Improper disclosure of corporate data could result in lawsuits or regulatory proceedings alleging damages and

perceptions that our products and services do not adequately protect the privacy of customer data and could inhibit sales of our products and services. In addition, our customer and vendor contracts may not sufficiently protect us against third-party claims related to an incident. Defending these types of claims could result in increased expenses for litigation and claims settlement and a significant diversion of our management’s attention. Additionally, our software products, the systems on which the products are used, and our networks and data processing systems may not be impervious to intentional break-ins (“hacking”), email spoofing, phishing, ransomware cyber-attacks or other disruptive disclosures or problems, whether as a result of inadvertent third-party action, employee action, malfeasance, or otherwise. Hacking, email spoofing, phishing, ransomware, cyber-attacks or other disruptive problems could result in the diversion of our development resources, damage to our reputation, increased cyber-security protection costs and general service costs. These cyber-security events, any damage caused by them, or interruptions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Cyber-security risks may be increased while many of our personnel and those of our third-party providers are working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While we have experienced and expect to continue to experience threats and attacks on our networks and data processing systems seeking to gain unauthorized access to our systems or data or to cause disruptions in service, including through ransomware, based on information known to date, past threats and attacks have not had a material impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Although we have implemented and intend to continue to implement security measures, these measures may prove to be inadequate and result in system failures and delays that could lower network operations center availability.

Annual Cash Bonus Plan

 

As set forth in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2020 annual meeting of shareholders (“2020 Proxy Statement”), the executive compensation objectives of the Company are to motivate and retain talented and dedicated executives, to link annual cash incentives to achievement of specified performance objectives, and to align executives’ incentives with stockholder value creation. Consistent with these objectives, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Company’s Board of Directors considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations, and on July 30, 2020, determined that it was in the best interests of the Company and stockholders to revise the performance targets for 2020 bonus awards under the Company’s annual cash bonus plan (the “Bonus Plan”), including the performance targets applicable to the Company’s named executive officers. The Committee looked at numerous factors in considering whether to revise the performance targets for the 2020 bonus awards and determined that revisions were appropriate to align employees’ goals with the Company’s financial objectives for the 2020 fiscal year and to provide a continuing incentive for performance and to offer a reasonable payout opportunity for the efforts of executives, considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the 2020 fiscal year.

 

For each named executive officer, 2020 bonus awards will continue to be tied to the financial performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA, Service Revenues, Product Revenues and Cash Generation (the “Corporate Metrics”) and a discretionary component, as previously established by the Committee in December 2019 with respect to the 2020 bonus awards. However, the performance targets for the Corporate Metrics will now be split between first quarter and second quarter (“First Half”) of 2020 performance and third quarter and fourth quarter (“Second Half”) of 2020 performance. First Half payouts will be evaluated by performance against First Half Corporate Metrics targets based on the Company’s original 2020 budgets for the First Half of 2020 and Second Half payouts will be evaluated by performance against Second Half Corporate Metrics targets based on the Company’s more recent internal forecasts (after taking into account the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic). Each of the First Half and Second Half payouts will be equally weighted at 50% of the same full year annual cash bonus opportunity (based on a percentage of base salary) and weighting among the Corporate Metrics for each named executive officer, as previously established by the Committee for fiscal 2020 and described in the CD&A included in the 2020 Proxy Statement under the heading “Elements of Compensation — Annual Cash Bonus — 2020 Financial Performance Targets.” The First Half and Second Half payouts will be determined by the Committee and paid to the executive officers in 2021 in accordance with the Company’s regular schedule for annual cash bonus payments under the Bonus Plan.
