NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

U.S. dollars in thousands, except share and per share data

 

NOTE 1:- GENERAL

 

a.Business overview:

 

AudioCodes Ltd. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together the "Group") design, develop and market products and services for voice, data and video over IP networks to service providers and channels (such as distributors), OEMs, network equipment providers and systems integrators.

The Company operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries in the United States, Europe, Asia, Latin America and Israel.

 

b.Acquisition of Natural Speech Communication Ltd. ("NSC"):

 

Through December 31, 2009, the Company had invested an aggregate of $ 8,418 in NSC, a privately-held company engaged in speech recognition. As of December 31, 2009, the Company owned 59.7% of the outstanding share capital of NSC, which has been consolidated into the financial results of the Company since December 2008.

 

In January 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all of the outstanding equity of NSC that it did not own as of December 31, 2009. The closing of the transaction occurred in May 2010. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company purchased the remaining 40.3% of the shares from NSC's non-controlling shareholders for a maximum total consideration of $ 1,733. The payment of the total consideration can be made, at the Company's option, in any combination of cash and the Company's shares. In accordance with the agreement, $ 838 was paid through December 31, 2012. An additional amount of $ 395 was paid in March 2013. An additional earn-out of $ 120 was paid in April 2013, since certain aggregate revenue milestones were met for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2011 and 2012.

 

c.Asset Purchase Agreement with Mailvision Ltd ("Mailvision"):

 

In April 2013, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Mailvision, in which the Company held 29.2% of the outstanding share capital. Pursuant to the agreement, in May 2013, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Mailvision., an Israeli company which develops, markets and licenses VoIP solutions for mobile, PC and tablet devices for telecom operators and service providers (see also Note 3).

 

d.The Group is dependent upon sole source suppliers for certain key components used in its products, including certain digital signal processing chips. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers of these particular components, management believes that other suppliers could provide similar components at comparable terms. A change in suppliers, however, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which could adversely affect the operating results of the Group and its financial position.

 

e.The Group's major customer in the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012, accounted for 16.2% and 12.7% of the Group's revenues in those periods, respectively. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Group's revenues in those periods.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2012, are applied consistently in these financial statements. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012.

 

a.Interim financial statements:

 

The interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2013 and the related interim condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the statement of equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, are unaudited. This unaudited information has been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial statements, and on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and in management's opinion, reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, for interim financial reporting for the periods presented and accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for audited financial statements. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the 2012 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto. The Interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet Data as of December 31, 2012 was derived from the 2012 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

 

b.Use of estimates:

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company's management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. As applicable to these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the most significant estimates and assumptions relate to revenue recognition and allowance for sales returns, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventories, intangible assets, goodwill, income taxes and valuation allowance, stock-based compensation and contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2:- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.)

 

c.Business combinations:

 

The Company accounts for business combinations under ASC 805, "Business Combinations." ASC 805 requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. ASC 805 also requires that contingent consideration be recorded on the acquisition date and revaluated to fair value in subsequent periods, and restructuring and acquisition-related deal costs of the acquirer be expensed as incurred.

 

As required by ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and disclosures" the Company applies assumptions that marketplace participants would consider in determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, non-controlling interest and redeemable non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date. Any excess of the fair value of net assets acquired over purchase price and any subsequent changes in estimated contingencies are to be recorded in earnings. In addition, changes in valuation allowance related to acquired deferred tax assets and changes in acquired income tax position are to be recognized in earnings.

 

d.New accounting guidance recently adopted:

 

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, the Company adopted ASU. 2013-02, Topic 350, "Comprehensive Income", which amends Topic 220 to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income to the respective line items in net income. The relevant presentation and disclosures have been applied retrospectively for all periods presented.

 

e.Impact of recently issued accounting standard not yet adopted:

 

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11 "Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists." The standard requires the netting of unrecognized tax benefits (the "UTBs") against a deferred tax asset for a loss or other carryforward that would apply in settlement of the uncertain tax positions. UTBs are required to be netted against all available same-jurisdiction loss or other tax carryforwards that would be utilized, rather than only against carryforwards that are created by the UTBs. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this accounting guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

f.Reclassification:

 

Certain amounts in prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.

NOTE 3:- ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT WITH MAILVISION LTD. ("MAILVISION")

 

On May 13, 2013 (the "Closing Date"), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement with Mailvision (the "APA"), the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Mailvision.

 

The APA also provides that, under certain limited circumstances, if the Company were to sell the acquired assets and assumed liabilities to a third party prior to May 2014, the proceeds from such sale in excess of a specified amount would be payable to Mailvision, and, if the purchase price offered by a third party prior to May 2014 exceeds a specified amount, subject to a number of conditions, the Company would be required to sell the acquired assets and assumed liabilities (the “Sale Option”).

 

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method. The $ 3,434 in consideration for the acquisition was composed of the following amounts: (i) $ 221 present value of $ 233 payable on the 2014 Anniversary Date of the acquisition; (ii) $ 432 fair value of earn-out considerations, that are payable in 2015 and 2016, if certain milestones of revenues from the sale of Mailvision’s product are met during the three annual periods following the Closing Date (the "Earn-Out"). (iii) waiver of $ 1,472 of debt owed by Mailvision to the Company; and (iv) $ 376 fair value of the Sale Option. In addition, on the Closing Date, the Company reevaluated its investment in Mailvision (see Note 6) to its fair value in the amount of $ 933 in accordance with ASC 805. As a result of the revaluation of investment in Mailvision, the Company recognized a gain of $ 95 that was recorded in equity in losses of affiliated company, net in the statement of operations.

 

The payment of the consideration can be made, at the Company's option, in any combination of cash and the Company's ordinary shares.

 

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with reference to the acquisition as of May 13, 2013:

 

Property and equipment  $38 
Core technology   2,322 
Customer relationships   266 
Goodwill   1,654 
      
Total assets acquired   4,280 
      
Net working capital   567 
Other liabilities due to acquisition activity   279 
      
Total assumed liabilities   846 
      
Net assets acquired  $3,434 

 

The fair values of the acquired core technology and customer relationships were valued using the income approach. This method utilized a forecast of expected cash inflows, cash outflows and contributory charges for economic returns on tangible and intangible assets employed. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary assessment of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired resulted in goodwill of $ 1,654.

NOTE 3:- ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT WITH MAILVISION LTD. ("MAILVISION") (Cont.)

 

The acquired core technology and customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 5.5 and 4.5 years, respectively.

 

The fair value of the Earn-Out was estimated by utilizing the income approach, taking into account the potential cash payments discounted to arrive at a present value amount, based on the Company's expectation as to future revenues of Mailvision’s products in the three subsequent annual periods following the Closing Date. The discount rate was based on the market interest rate and estimated operational capitalization rate. The fair value of the Sale Option granted was valued by using the Black-Scholes call option pricing model.

 

The Exercise price of the Sale Option is $ 7,097. Fair values of the Sale Option were estimated using the following assumptions (annualized percentages): 

 

   September 30,
2013
  May 13,
2013
       
Dividend yield  0%  0%
Expected volatility  60%  60%
Risk-free interest  0.1%  0.15%
Expected life  0.6 years  1 year

  

In accordance with ASC 815, the Company measured the Sale Option at fair value at each reporting date, based on its fair value, with changes in the fair values being recognized in the Company's statement of operations as financial income or expense.

 

As of September 30, 2013, the Earn-Out and the Sale Option estimated fair value amounted to $ 440 and $ 222, respectively, of which an aggregate amount equal to $ 440 was classified as a long-term liability.

 

These consolidated financial statements include the operating results of the Mailvision business since May 13, 2013. The revenues and expenses specific to the Mailvision business and the pro forma results are not material to these condensed consolidated financial statements.

d.Legal proceedings:

 

1.In May 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with respect to property adjacent to its headquarters in Israel, pursuant to which a building of approximately 145,000 square feet has been erected and was expected to be leased to the Company for a period of eleven years. This new building was substantially completed in May 2010.  The landlord claimed that the Company should have taken delivery of the building at that time and started paying rent.  The Company disagreed with the landlord's interpretation of the relevant agreement. As a result, the landlord terminated the agreement and leased the property to a third party.  This dispute has been referred to arbitration where the Company claimed that due to the landlord's failure the Company lost significant potential revenues. The landlord counterclaimed alleging that it sustained losses equal to approximately one year's rent and management fees in the aggregate amount of approximately NIS 14 million (approximately $ 3.8 million).

 

In September 2013, the parties reached a settlement agreement in which each party withdrew its claim.

 

2.

In September 2011, an action was commenced against the Company's U.S subsidiary, AudioCodes Inc. and numerous other defendants, in Federal Court in Delaware alleging that AudioCodes Inc. and the other defendants, infringed the plaintiff's intellectual property rights in five patents. In December 2013, AudioCodes Inc. and the plaintiff entered into a settlement agreement that provided for a dismissal of the action and a nominal payment by AudioCodes Inc. to plaintiff. As of September 30, 2013, the Group recorded an appropriate provision with respect to this claim.

 

3.In January 2013, one of the Company’s former senior executives sent a letter of demand claiming an amount of approximately $ 1,000 relating to his termination of employment. The Company has denied all of his allegations and believes that it has valid defenses to this claim.

 

4.In February 2013, a patent infringement action was commenced against AudioCodes Inc. and other defendants, in Federal Court in California alleging that AudioCodes Inc. infringed the plaintiff’s intellectual property rights in one patent. One of the other defendants is a customer of the Group that has informed that it believes it is entitled to indemnification from the Group with respect to this litigation. The proceedings are at an early stage and it is not possible at this time to predict their outcome. The Group believes it has valid defenses against the claims.

NOTE 13:- DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

 

The Group enters into hedge transactions with a major financial institution, using derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts and options to purchase and sell foreign currencies, in order to reduce the net currency exposure associated with anticipated expenses (primarily salaries and rent expenses) in currencies other than U.S. dollar. The Group currently hedges such future exposures for a maximum period of one year. However, the Group may choose not to hedge certain foreign currency exchange exposures for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to immateriality, accounting considerations and the prohibitive economic cost of hedging particular exposures. There can be no assurance the hedges will offset more than a portion of the financial impact resulting from movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

 

The Group records all derivatives in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The effective portions of cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portions of cash flow hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings in financial other income or expense. The Group does not enter into derivative transactions for trading purposes.
