LUVU BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

 Luvu Brands, Inc. (the “Company” or “Luvu”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on February 25, 1999. References to the Company in these notes include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, OneUp Innovations, Inc. (“OneUp”), and Foam Labs, Inc. (“Foam Labs”). All operations of the Company are currently conducted by OneUp.

 

The Company is an Atlanta, Georgia based designer, manufacturer and marketer of a portfolio of consumer lifestyle brands including: Liberator®, a brand category of iconic products for enhancing sensuality and intimacy; Avana® inclined bed therapy products, assistive in relieving medical conditions associated with acid reflux, surgery recovery and chronic pain; and Jaxx®, a diverse range of casual fashion daybeds, sofas and beanbags made from virgin and our re-purposed polyurethane foam trim. These products are sold through the Company’s websites, online mass merchants and retail stores worldwide. Many of our products are offered flat-packed and either roll or vacuum compressed to save on shipping and reduce our carbon footprint.

 

Sales are generated through internet and print advertisements and social marketing.  We have a diversified customer base with only one customer accounting for 10% or more of consolidated net sales in the current and prior fiscal year and no particular concentration of credit risk in one economic sector.  Foreign operations and foreign net sales are not material. Our business is seasonal and as a result we typically experience higher sales in our second and third fiscal quarters.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. The year-end condensed balance sheet data were derived from audited consolidated financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 1, 2020 (the “2020 10-K”).

 

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. As of December 31, 2020 the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $6.4 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $589,000. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements, and the success of its future operations.  Management believes that actions presently being taken to revise the Company’s operating and financial requirements provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

These actions include an ongoing initiative to increase sales, gross profits and our gross profit margin. To that end, we evaluated various options for increasing the throughput of our compressed foam products and during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we purchased new foam contouring equipment for installation during the third quarter of fiscal 2021. We also placed an order for a larger roll compression machine which should be operational during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. These actions should yield higher factory throughput at a lower cost of goods sold. However, these operational improvements may be more than offset by rising wages and raw material costs. We plan to raise our selling prices to offset some of the labor and raw material cost increases. We estimate that the operational and strategic growth plans we have identified over the next twelve months will, at a minimum, require approximately $150,000 of funding, of which we estimate will be provided by debt financing and, to a lesser extent, cash flow from operations as well as cash on hand.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 (UNAUDITED)

 

 

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN (continued)

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.  However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing these plans.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Although we have three separate brands with diverse channels of distribution, the continued COVID-19 pandemic may negatively impact our business operations and the operations of our suppliers and customers as a result of quarantines, facility closures and travel and logistics restrictions. There is substantial uncertainty regarding the duration and degree of COVID-19’s continued effects over time. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business going forward will depend on numerous evolving factors we cannot reliably predict, including the duration and scope of the pandemic or recurrence thereof, timing of development and deployment of an effective vaccine, governmental, business and individuals' actions in response to the pandemic and the impact on economic activity including the possibility of recession or financial market instability.

 

 

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of our wholly owned operating subsidiaries, OneUp and Foam Labs. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  These consolidated condensed financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s 2020 10-K.

 

Use of Estimates

 

 The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include estimates of: income taxes; tax valuation reserves; allowances for doubtful accounts; inventory valuation and reserves; share-based compensation; and useful lives for depreciation and amortization.  Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.   

 

Revenue Recognition   

 

We record revenue based on the five-step model which includes: (1) identifying the contract with the customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied. Substantially all of our revenue is generated by fulfilling orders for the purchase of manufactured products and product purchased for resale to retailers, wholesalers, or direct to consumers via online channels, with each order considered to be a distinct performance obligation. These orders may be formal purchase orders, verbal phone orders, e-mail orders or orders received online. Shipping and handling activities for which we are responsible under the terms and conditions of the order are not accounted for as performance obligations but as fulfillment costs. These activities are required to fulfill our promise to transfer the goods and are expensed when revenue is recognized. The impact of this policy election is insignificant as it aligns with our current practice.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Revenue is measured as the net amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for fulfilling a performance obligation. We have elected to exclude sales, use and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price.  The impact of this policy election is insignificant, as it aligns with our current practice. The amount of consideration expected to be received and revenue recognized includes estimates of variable consideration, which includes costs for trade promotion programs, coupons, returns and early payment discounts.  Such estimates are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions and experience. We review and update these estimates at the end of each reporting period and the impact of any adjustments are recognized in the period the adjustments are identified. In assessing whether collection of consideration from a customer is probable, we consider the customer's ability and intent to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. Payment of invoices is due as specified in the underlying customer agreement, typically 30 days from the invoice date, which occurs on the date of transfer of control of the products to the customer. Revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the ordered products is transferred to the customer. Generally, this occurs when the product is delivered, or in some cases, picked up from one of our distribution centers by the customer. 

 

Deferred revenues

 

Deferred revenues are recorded when the Company has received consideration (i.e. advance payment) before satisfying its performance obligations. Deferred revenues primarily relate to gift cards purchased, but not used, prior to the end of the fiscal period. Our total deferred revenue as of June 30, 2020 was $14,898 and was included in “Other accrued liabilities” on our consolidated balance sheets. The deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020 was $16,760.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of goods sold includes raw materials, labor, manufacturing overhead, and royalty expense.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect our estimate of current and past due receivable balances that may not be collected. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts, the aging of accounts receivable and our history of bad debts. We believe that the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to cover anticipated losses in the receivable balance under current conditions. However, significant deterioration in the financial condition of our customers, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, could materially change these expectations and an additional allowance may be required.

 

The following is a summary of Accounts Receivable as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Inventories and Inventory Reserves

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realizable value is defined as sales price less cost to dispose and a normal profit margin.  Inventory costs include materials, labor, depreciation and overhead. The Company establishes reserves for excess and obsolete inventory, based on prevailing circumstances and judgment for consideration of current events, such as economic conditions, that may affect inventory. The reserve required to record inventory at lower of cost or net realizable value may be adjusted in response to changing conditions.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash accounts with banks located in Georgia.  The total cash balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per bank.  The Company had bank balances on deposit at December 31, 2020 that exceeded the balance insured by the FDIC by $1,096,404. Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenue earned from customers primarily located in North America and Europe.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, we purchased 33% and 32% respectively, of total inventory purchases from one vendor.

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, we purchased 33 % of total inventory purchases from one vendor.

 

As of December 31, 2020, two of the Company’s customers represents 29% and 14% of the total accounts receivables, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, three of the Company’s customers represents 38%, 16% and 16% of the total accounts receivables, respectively. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, sales to and through Amazon accounted for 30% and 29% of our net sales, respectively.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

At December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, our financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt, and other long-term debt.

 

The fair values of these financial instruments approximated their carrying values based on either their short maturity or current terms for similar instruments.

 

The Company measures the fair value of its assets and liabilities under the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but its provisions apply to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurement.

 

ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 820 requires the Company to use valuation techniques to measure fair value that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized as follows:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or market-corroborated inputs; and

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets or liabilities.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

The valuation techniques that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

A.       Market approach - Uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.  

 

B.       Income approach - Uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on current market expectations about those future amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and excess earnings method.

 

C.        Cost approach - Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement cost).  

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed in the period when the advertisements are first aired or distributed to the public. Prepaid advertising (included in prepaid expenses) was $2,500 at December 31, 2020 and $5,000 at June 30, 2020. Advertising expense for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $120,455 and $115,815, respectively. Advertising expense for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $188,985 and $195,683, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses for new products are expensed as they are incurred. Expenses for new product development totaled $27,294 and $26,179 for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Expenses for new product development totaled $56,519 and $54,852 for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Research and development costs are included in general and administrative expense.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over estimated service lives for financial reporting purposes of 2-10 years.

 

Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When properties are disposed of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized currently.

 

Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets to be held are reviewed for events or changes in circumstances which indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. They are tested for recoverability using undiscounted cash flows to determine whether or not impairment to such value has occurred as required by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic No. 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. The Company has determined that there was no impairment at December 31, 2020.

Operating Leases

 

On July 23, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with its landlord to extend the facilities lease by five years. The previous ten year lease was to expire on December 31, 2015. The agreement amended the lease to expire on December 31, 2020. The rent expense under this lease for the three months ended December 30, 2020 and 2019 was $88,120 and $88,120, respectively. The rent expense under this lease for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $176,239 and $176,239, respectively.

 

On November 2, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with its landlord on a new lease for the current facilities for six years and two months. The new lease includes two months of rent abatement totaling $103,230. Under the new lease, the monthly rent on the facility is $51,615 with annual escalations of 3% with the final two months of rent at $61,605. In addition, the Company will pay the landlord a 2% property management fee.

 

Under ASC 842, which was adopted July 1, 2019, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present. Most leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities. The Company elected not to recognize leases with a term less than one year on its balance sheet. Operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and their corresponding lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rates, which are the rates incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.

 

In accordance with the guidance in ASU 2016-02, components of a lease should be split into three categories: lease components (e.g. land, building, etc.), non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance, consumables, etc.), and non-components (e.g. property taxes, insurance, etc.) Then the fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any related to non-components) must be allocated based on fair values to the lease components and non-lease components. Although separation of lease and non-lease components is required, the Company elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. The lease component results in an operating right-of-use asset being recorded on the balance sheet and amortized on a straight-line basis as lease expense. See Note 16 for details.

 

Under prior guidance ASC 840, rent expense and lease incentives from operating leases were recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The difference between rent expense recognized and rental payments was recorded as deferred rent in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Segment Information

 

We have identified three reportable sales channels:  Direct, Wholesale and Other.   Direct includes product sales through our five e-commerce sites and our single retail store. Wholesale includes Liberator, Jaxx, and Avana branded products sold to distributors and retailers, purchased products sold to retailers, and private label items sold to other resellers. The Wholesale category also includes contract manufacturing services, which consists of specialty items that are manufactured in small quantities for certain customers, and which, to date, has not been a material part of our business. Other consists principally of shipping and handling fees and costs derived from our Direct business and fulfillment service fees.

 

The following is a summary of sales results for the Direct, Wholesale, and Other channels.

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.

 

Recently adopted 

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued updated guidance (ASU 2018-13) as part of the disclosure framework project, which focuses on improving the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in this guidance are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 (the Company’s fiscal 2021), with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2018-13 effective July 1, 2020. The impact of adoption of this standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements was not material.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Not yet adopted

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes". The standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 including recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period allocations and calculating taxes in interim periods. ASU 2019-12 also improves consistent application of and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt the standard as of July 1, 2021 and is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements, but not yet effective, have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

 

Net Income Per Share

 

In accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of stock options using the treasury stock method. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the common stock equivalents did not have any effect on net income per share.

 

    December 31,
    2020   2019
Common stock options – 2009 Plan     —         100,000  
Common stock options – 2015 Plan     2,300,000       4,100,000  
Convertible preferred stock     4,300,000       4,300,000  
  Total     6,600,000       8,500,000  

 

Income Taxes

 

We utilize the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. We recognize deferred tax liabilities or assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities. We regularly assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. We consider projected future taxable income and ongoing tax planning strategies in assessing the amount of the valuation allowance necessary to offset our deferred tax assets that will not be recoverable. We have recorded and continue to carry a full valuation allowance against our gross deferred tax assets that will not reverse against deferred tax liabilities within the scheduled reversal period. If we determine in the future that it is more likely than not that we will realize all or a portion of our deferred tax assets, we will adjust our valuation allowance in the period we make the determination. We expect to provide a full valuation allowance on our future tax benefits until we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to realize these assets.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

We account for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. We measure the cost of each stock option and restricted stock award at its fair value on the grant date. Each award vests over the subsequent period during which the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). The cost of each award is recognized as expense in the financial statements over the respective vesting period.

 

NOTE 4. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

We follow FASB ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, regarding impairment of our other long-lived assets (property, plant and equipment). Our policy is to assess our long-lived assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable.

 

 An impairment loss is recognized only if the carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and is measured as the excess of its carrying value over its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is considered not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of a long-lived asset.

 

Assets to be disposed of and related liabilities would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet. Assets to be disposed of would be reported at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less costs to sell and would not be depreciated.  There was no impairment as of December 31, 2020 or June 30, 2020.

  

NOTE 5. INVENTORIES, NET

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (which approximates first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as sales price less cost to dispose and a normal profit margin.  Inventories consisted of the following:

NOTE 6. EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS

 

Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives for equipment and furniture and fixtures, or the shorter of the remaining lease term or estimated useful lives for leasehold improvements. Equipment and leasehold improvements consisted of the following:

    December 31, 2020   June 30, 2020   Estimated Useful Life
    (unaudited)        
    (in thousands)    
Factory equipment   $ 2,692     $ 2,646     2-10 years
Computer equipment and software     1,111       1,087     5-7 years
Office equipment and furniture     205       205     5-7 years
Leasehold improvements     463       463     6 years
Project in process     372       3      
Subtotal     4,843       4,404      
Accumulated depreciation     (3,567 )     (3,466 )    
 Equipment and leasehold improvements, net   $ 1,276     $ 938      

 

 

Depreciation expense was $51,024 and $38,913 for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, depreciation expense was $103,476 and $79,052, respectively.

 

Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to forecasted undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount exceeds its estimated future cash flows, then an impairment charge is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. Management has determined no asset impairment occurred during the six months ended December 31, 2020.

On April 26, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the “PPP Note”) evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of $1,096,200 made to the Company under the Payroll Protection Plan ("PPP"). The PPP is a liquidity facility program established by the U.S. government as part of the CARES Act in response to the negative economic impact of the COVID-19 outbreak. The PPP Loan to the Company is being administered by Ameris Bank. The PPP Loan has a two-year term and bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred for six months. Beginning November 26, 2020, seven months from the date of the PPP Note, the Company is required to make monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $61,691.

 

The PPP Loan is a forgivable loan to the extent proceeds are used to cover qualified documented payroll, mortgage interest, rent, and utility costs over a 24-week measurement period (as amended) following loan funding. For the loan to be forgiven, the Company is required to formally apply for forgiveness, and potentially, required to pass an audit that it met the eligibility qualifications of the loan. Within 150 days from the application, the Company will be notified whether or not the loan is forgiven.

 

On December 18, 2020, the company was informed by Ameris Bank that the PPP Note had been forgiven by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

 

In accounting for the terms of the PPP Loan, the Company is guided by ASC 470 Debt, and ASC 450-30 Gain contingency. Accordingly, the Company derecognized the PPP Note liability of $1,096,200 and recorded it as Other Income, as forgiveness was certain.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2019

 

Net sales. Sales for the three months ended December 31, 2020 were $5,714,000, a 20% increase from the comparable prior year period.  The major components of net sales, by product, are as follows:

 

  · Liberator sales - Sales of Liberator branded products increased $487,000, or 25%, during the quarter from the comparable prior year period, due primarily to higher sales through the Company’s e-commerce site, Liberator.com and higher sales through Amazon, partially offset by lower sales through brick-and-mortar retail customers.

 

  · Jaxx sales – Jaxx product sales increased 45% from the prior year second quarter, primarily due to an expanded product offering and greater sales through e-merchants, including Amazon and Wayfair;

 

  · Avana sales – Net sales of Avana products decreased 20% during the quarter from the comparable prior year quarter to $833,000. The decrease in sales of our top-of-bed comfort products was due to larger orders for Liberator and Jaxx products which taxed our production capabilities and created longer delivery lead times for the Avana products.  Longer lead times when selling through drop-ship channels like Amazon, Wayfair and Overstock typically results in lower order levels, as consumers will seek out competitive products with shorter delivery lead times. Additional foam cutting and roll compression equipment has been ordered and is expected to reduce delivery lead times for all products;

 

  · Products purchased for resale – This product category increased by $64,000 from the prior year second quarter due to higher sales of certain products through our e-commerce website, Liberator.com.

 

Gross margin. Gross profit, derived from net sales less the cost of goods sold, includes the cost of materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, freight costs, royalties and depreciation.  As a result of labor and raw material cost increases, the gross profit margin, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 27% from 32% in the prior year second quarter. With the increased net sales, gross profit increased to $1,565,748 from $1,519,423.

 

Operating expenses. Total operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2020 were approximately 19% of net sales, or approximately $1,109,000, compared to 23% of net sales, or approximately $1,105,000, for the same period in the prior year.  

 

Other income (expense). Interest expense during the second quarter decreased from approximately ($157,000) in fiscal 2020 to approximately ($88,000) during the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower average borrowing balances and reduced interest expense on those lower balances. The PPP loan forgiveness by the Small Business Administration resulted in Other Income of approximately $1,096,000.

 

Six Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31, 2019

 

Net sales. Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2020 were $11,081,000, a 25% increase from the comparable prior year period.  The major components of net sales, by product, are as follows:

 

  · Liberator sales - Sales of Liberator branded products increased $989,000, or 28%, during the first six months from the comparable prior year period, due primarily to greater sales through the company’s Liberator.com website and through Amazon.com;

 

  · Jaxx sales – Jaxx product sales increased $1,111,000, or 48%, from the prior year first half, primarily due to an expanded product offering of outdoor and indoor products and greater sales through e-merchants, including Amazon and Wayfair;

 

  · Avana sales – Net sales of Avana products decreased $88,000 (or 5%) during the first six months from the comparable prior year period. Sales of this product line have been impacted by lower-priced competitive products in the market place, and longer delivery lead times which resulted in lower sales through drop ship channels including Amazon, Overstock and Wayfair; and

 

  · Products purchased for resale – This product category increased by $18,000, or 2%, from the prior year first half due to greater sales of certain products through our e-commerce website, Liberator.com.

Gross margin. Gross profit, derived from net sales less the cost of goods sold, includes the cost of materials, direct labor, manufacturing overhead, freight costs and depreciation.  As a result of labor and raw material cost increases, the gross profit margin, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 28% from 30% in the prior year first half. With the increased net sales, gross profit increased to $3,053,562 from $2,656,816, a 15% increase.

 

Operating expenses. Total operating expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2020 were 20% of net sales, or approximately $2,161,000, compared to 24% of net sales, or approximately $2,129,000, for the same period in the prior year.  Of the $32,000 increase, approximately $126,000 was due to higher insurance, equipment repairs and administrative salaries, offset in part by lower sales and marketing salaries and personnel costs ($120,000). 

 

Other income (expense). Interest expense during the first six month decreased from expense of approximately ($316,000) in fiscal 2020 to expense of approximately ($195,000) during the first half of fiscal 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower average borrowing balances and reduced interest expense on those higher balances. The PPP Note forgiveness by the U.S. Small Business Administration resulted in Other Income of approximately $1,096,000.

 

Variability of Results

 

We have experienced significant quarterly fluctuations in operating results and anticipate that these fluctuations may continue in future periods. Operating results have fluctuated as a result of changes in sales levels to consumers and wholesalers, competition, seasonality costs associated with new product introductions, and increases in raw material costs. In addition, future operating results may fluctuate as a result of factors beyond our control such as foreign exchange fluctuation, changes in government regulations, and economic changes in the regions in which we operate and sell. A portion of our operating expenses are relatively fixed and the timing of increases in expense levels is based in large part on forecasts of future sales. Therefore, if net sales are below expectations in any given period, the adverse impact on results of operations may be magnified by our inability to meaningfully adjust spending in certain areas, or the inability to adjust spending quickly enough, as in personnel and administrative costs, to compensate for a sales shortfall. We may also choose to increase spending in response to market conditions, and these decisions may have a material adverse effect on financial condition and results of operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following table summarizes our cash flows:        
    Six Months Ended
    December 31,
(Dollars in thousands)   2020   2019
    (Unaudited)
Cash flow data:        
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities   $ 396     $ (117 )
Cash used in investing activities   $ (81 )   $ (12 )
Cash (used in) provided by financing activities   $ (452   $ 94  

    

As of December 31, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,014,736, compared to $614,212 in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2019.

 

For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash flow that we generate from our operations, availability of borrowings under our line of credit and cash raised through equity and debt financings.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $396,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2020 compared to $117,000 net cash used in operating activities in the six months ended December 31, 2019.  The primary components of the cash provided by operating activities in the current year is the net income of $1,794,000 (which includes the PPP Note forgiveness of $1,096,000), a decrease in accounts receivable of $219,000, offset in part by an increase in inventory of $505,000 and a decrease in accrued compensation of $190,000.

 

Investing Activities

 

Cash used in investing activities in the six months ended December 31, 2020 was $81,000 and related to the purchase and installation of certain production equipment and computer software during the first six months.

 

29


 
 

 

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash used in financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2020 of $452,000 was primarily attributable to the repayment of the unsecured notes payable, secured notes payable, the credit card advance and payments made on equipment notes, offset in part by net borrowings under the revolving line of credit.

Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2019 of $94,000 was primarily attributable to the proceeds from the unsecured notes payable and borrowings from the credit card advance, offset in part by the repayment of the unsecured notes payable and credit card advance.

Inflation

 

During fiscal 2019 and 2020, we experienced increases in various raw material costs and increases in labor costs and government mandated employee benefits. We believe these pricing pressures have not stabilized and will continue to increase throughout fiscal 2021, although there is no assurance this will occur. Inflation and import tariffs can harm our margins and profitability if we are unable to increase prices or improve productivity enough to offset the effects of inflation in our cost base. Furthermore, if our customers reduce their levels of spending in response to increases in retail prices and/or we are unable to pass such cost increases to our customers, our revenues and our profit margins may decrease. 

 

Sufficiency of Liquidity

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. We recorded net income of approximately $1,794,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and net income of approximately $860,000 for the year ended June 30, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, however, we have an accumulated deficit of approximately $6,362,000 and a working capital deficit of approximately $589,000. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements, and the success of its future operations.  Management believes that actions presently being taken to revise the Company’s operating and financial requirements provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

These actions include an ongoing initiative to increase sales, gross profits and our gross profit margin. To that end, we evaluated various options for increasing the throughput of our compressed foam products and during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, we purchased new foam contouring equipment for installation during the third quarter of fiscal 2021. We also placed an order for a larger roll compression machine which should be operational during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. These actions should yield higher factory throughput at a lower cost of goods sold. However, these operational improvements have been more than offset by rising wages and raw material costs. We plan to raise our selling prices to offset some of the labor and raw material cost increases. We estimate that the operational and strategic growth plans we have identified over the next twelve months will, at a minimum, require approximately $150,000 of funding, of which we estimate will be provided by debt financing and, to a lesser extent, cash flow from operations as well as cash on hand.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019: 

 

 (Dollars in thousands)   Six months ended December 31,
    2020   2019
Net income   $ 1,794     $ 212  
Plus interest expense, net     195       316  
Plus depreciation and amortization expense     103       79  
Plus stock-based compensation     8       11  
Adjusted EBITDA   $ 2,100     $ 618  

  

As used herein, Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. We have excluded the non-cash expenses and stock-based compensation, as they do not reflect the cash-based operations of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP. The presentation of this financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income of the Company or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

 

Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company’s net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not a substitute for or a measure of the Company’s profitability or net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, and because it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and non-cash charges for stock-based compensation expense.
