The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emerson Radio Corp. and its subsidiaries (“Emerson” or the “Company”). The Company designs, sources, imports and markets certain houseware and consumer electronic products, and licenses the Company’s trademarks for a variety of products.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2017 and the results of operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes; actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 (“fiscal 2017”), included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, for fiscal 2017.

The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other interim periods or for the full year ending March 31, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”).

Whenever necessary, reclassifications are made to conform the prior year’s financial statements to the current year’s presentation.

Unless otherwise disclosed in the notes to these financial statements, the estimated fair value of the financial assets and liabilities approximates the carrying value.

Sales allowances, marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives which are provided to retailers and distributors are accounted for on an accrual basis as a reduction to net revenues in the period in which the related sales are recognized in accordance with ASC topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, subtopic 50 “Customer Payments and Incentives” and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletins 101 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” and 104 “Revenue Recognition, corrected copy” (“SAB’s 101 and 104”).

At the time of sale, the Company reduces recognized gross revenue by allowances to cover, in addition to estimated sales returns as required by ASC topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, subtopic 15 “Products”, (i) sales incentives offered to customers that meet the criteria for accrual under ASC topic 605, subtopic 50 and (ii) under SAB’s 101 and 104, an estimated amount to recognize additional non-offered deductions it anticipates and can reasonably estimate will be taken by customers which it does not expect to recover. Accruals for the estimated amount of future non-offered deductions are required to be made as contra-revenue items because that percentage of shipped revenue fails to meet the collectability criteria within SAB 104’s and 101’s four revenue recognition criteria, all of which are required to be met in order to recognize revenue.

If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.

The following Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) were issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board which relate to or could relate to the Company as concerns the Company’s normal ongoing operations or the industry in which the Company operates, these are not yet effective for this financial period.

Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Issued May 2014)

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers" in order to ensure that revenue recognition requirements are the same under both US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). ASU 2014-09 removes inconsistencies and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues. ASU 2014-09 was effective for reporting periods and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 "Deferral of the Effective Date" to delay the implementation of ASU 2014-09 by one year, in response to feedback from preparers, practitioners and users of financial statements. Accordingly, ASU 2014-09 is now effective for reporting periods and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for reporting and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material impact on its financial statements, as it is primarily a seller of tangible personal property whose contracts with customers and the related transaction prices and performance obligations will be minimally affected by the amendments.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases" to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 creates a new Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842 "Leases" to replace the previous Topic 840 "Leases." ASU 2016-02 affects both lessees and lessors, although for the latter the provisions are similar to the previous model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and also the new revenue recognition provisions contained in ASU 2014-09 (see above). ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the standard to determine if ASU 2016-02 will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” (Issued June 2016)

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" to introduce new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within its scope. ASU 2016-13 requires among other things, the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, the ASU 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Outstanding capital stock at June 30, 2017 consisted of common stock and Series A preferred stock. The Series A preferred stock is non-voting, has no dividend preferences and has not been convertible since March 31, 2002; however, it retains a liquidation preference.

At June 30, 2017, the Company had no options, warrants or other potentially dilutive securities outstanding.

In December 2016, the Company publicly announced the approval by the Board of Directors of the repurchase of up to $5 million of its common stock, that the repurchases may be effected from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which may include, in whole or in part, the establishment of a purchase program pursuant to the safe harbor provided by Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, through block purchases or through accelerated or forward or similar stock purchases, and that the Company intends to run the repurchase program through the end of calendar 2017, unless the period is extended or shortened by the Board of Directors. Under the program, repurchases will be funded from available working capital and any repurchased shares will be held in the treasury as authorized and issued shares available for general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had repurchased 83,113 shares under this program, of which 19,133 shares were purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. As of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

At June 30, 2017, the Company had $1.2 million of U.S. federal net operating loss carry forwards and approximately $3.8 million of U.S. state net operating loss carry forwards included in net deferred tax assets that are available to offset future taxable income and can be carried forward for 20 years. Management believes it is less than likely that all of the net deferred tax assets will be realized through tax planning strategies available in future periods and through future profitable operating results, therefore management has increased its valuation allowance by $364,000 to a total of $651,000. The gross amount of the Company’s deferred tax assets at June 30, 2017 was $1,463,000 as compared to $1,080,000 as of March 31, 2017.

The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to income and losses incurred in foreign jurisdictions and taxed at locally applicable tax rates, subpart F income included in the Company’s tax expense, expenses that are not deductible for federal income tax purposes, increases to the valuation allowance and state income taxes.

The Company is subject to examination and assessment by tax authorities in numerous jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s open tax years for examination for U.S. federal tax are fiscal 2014-fiscal 2016 and for U.S. states tax are fiscal 2012-fiscal 2016.

Based on the outcome of tax examinations or due to the expiration of statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken in previously filed returns may be different from the liabilities that have been recorded for these unrecognized tax benefits. As a result, the Company may be subject to additional tax expense.

From time to time, Emerson engages in business transactions with its controlling shareholder, The Grande Holdings Limited (“Grande”), one or more of Grande’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, and companies related to the Company’s Chairman of the Board. Set forth below is a summary of such transactions.

S&T International Distribution Limited (“S&T”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Grande N.A.K.S. Ltd., which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Grande, collectively have the shared power to vote and direct the disposition of 15,243,283 shares, or approximately 56.4%, of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Accordingly, the Company is a “controlled company” as defined in Section 801(a) of the NYSE American Company Guide.

In April 2016, the Company, upon a request made by S&T, considered and agreed to return to S&T the $500,000 of collateral which S&T had paid to the Company in September 2014 as a part of the indemnification agreement between S&T, Grande and the Company pertaining to an Internal Revenue Service challenge of the Company’s March 31, 2010 earnings and profits calculations underlying the taxability of a dividend paid during March 2010 to all of its stockholders, net of the $79,000 in expenses incurred by the Company in defending the IRS challenge. On April 29, 2016, the Company paid $421,000 to S&T to effectuate the release of the collateral net of the aforementioned expenses incurred by the Company. From September 30, 2014 through March 31, 2016, this pledged collateral had been recorded by the Company as restricted cash on its balance sheet.

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company was billed approximately $4,000 for utility and service charges from The Grande Properties Management Limited (“GPML”) and Lafe Strategic Services Limited (“LSSL”), both related parties to the Company in connection with the Company’s rented office space in Hong Kong. The Company owed nil to both GPML and LSSL related to these charges at June 30, 2017.

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company billed approximately $6,000 for administrative fees to Phenomenon Agents Ltd (“PAL”), Sansui Acoustics Research Corporation (“SARC”) and TWD Industrial Co. Ltd. (“TICL"), all of which are related parties to the Company. The Company was owed nil from PAL, SARC and TICL related to these charges at June 30, 2017.

At June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Company held short term investments totaling $0.1 million and $25.1 million, respectively. These investments were comprised of bank certificates of deposit.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The following discussion of the Company’s operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

In the following discussions, most percentages and dollar amounts have been rounded to aid presentation. Accordingly, all amounts are approximations.

All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward-looking statements. The reader can identify these forward-looking statements through the Company’s use of words such as “may,” “can,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “should,” “indicate,” “would,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “expect,” “seek,” “estimate,” “continue,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “potential,” and other similar words and expressions of the future. These forward-looking statements may not be realized due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation:

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report or the date of the document incorporated by reference into this report. The Company has no obligation, and expressly disclaims any obligation, to update, revise or correct any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Management has expressed its expectations, beliefs and projections in good faith and it believes it has a reasonable basis for them. However, management cannot assure the reader that its expectations, beliefs or projections will be achieved or accomplished.

The following table summarizes certain financial information for the three month periods ended June 30, 2017 (fiscal 2018) and June 30, 2016 (fiscal 2017) (in thousands):

Net product sales — Net product sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 were $2.8 million as compared to $5.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2017, a decrease of $2.7 million, or 49.2%. The Company’s sales during the first quarters of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 were highly concentrated among the Company’s two largest customers – Wal-Mart and Fred Meyer, where gross product sales comprised approximately 70.1% and 88.5% of the Company’s total gross product sales.

Net product sales may be periodically impacted by adjustments made to the Company’s sales allowance and marketing support accrual to record unanticipated customer deductions from accounts receivable or to reduce the accrual by any amounts which were accrued in the past but not taken by customers through deductions from accounts receivable within a certain time period. In the aggregate, these adjustments had the effect of increasing net product sales and operating income by approximately $12,000 and $37,000 for the first quarters of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively. Net product sales are comprised primarily of the sales of houseware and audio products which bear the Emerson^® brand name. The major elements which contributed to the overall decrease in net product sales were as follows:

Business operations —Emerson will continue to expand the existing distribution channels and to develop and promote new products to regain shelf spaces in these retailers in the USA. Emerson is also investing in products and marketing activities to expand its sales through internet and ecommerce channels. These efforts would require investments in appropriate human resources, media marketing and development of products in various categories in addition to the traditional home appliances and audio products that Emerson has focused.

Emerson has taken active steps to further streamline its operations to reduce and control its operating costs. The operating costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 were reduced to $1.3 million as compared to $1.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

Licensing revenue — Licensing revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was $0.2 million as compared to $1.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, a decrease of $1.0 million or 80.7% which can be primarily attributed to the loss of the license agreement with Funai which ended on December 31, 2016.

Net revenues — As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company’s net revenues were $3.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to $6.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 54.8%.

Cost of sales — In absolute terms, cost of sales decreased $2.3 million, or 45.7%, to $2.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to $5.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The decrease in absolute terms for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily related to the reduced net product sales and lower year-over-year gross cost of sales as a percentage of gross sales.

The Company purchases the products it sells from a limited number of factory suppliers. For the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, the Company purchased 96% and 91%, respectively, from its two largest suppliers.

Other operating costs and expenses — Other operating costs and expenses as a percentage of net product sales were 0.3% for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to 2.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 2017. In absolute terms, other operating costs and expenses decreased $126,000, or 94.7%, to $7,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to $133,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 as a result of lower warranty and returns processing costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) — S,G&A, in absolute terms, was $1.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to $1.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 13.8%. S,G&A, as a percentage of net revenues, was 42.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to 22.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The decrease in S,G&A was due to reductions in consulting costs, directors fees, compensation costs and audit fees.

Interest income, net — Interest income, net, was $104,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to $51,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, an increase of $53,000. The increase was primarily due to higher average interest rates on the Company’s short term investments.

(Benefit) provision for income taxes — In the first quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $65,000 as compared to income tax expense of $21,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Although the Company generated a net loss during the first quarter of fiscal 2018, it was unable to realize a larger income tax benefit due to a valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets of approximately $363,000.

Net income (loss) — As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company realized a net loss of $0.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 as compared to a net loss of $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $49.4 million, as compared to approximately $42.7 million at June 30, 2016. Working capital decreased to $55.1 million at June 30, 2017 as compared to $55.6 million at June 30, 2016. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $6.7 million was due to a decrease in short term investments of $10.1 million, a decrease in prepaid purchases of $0.8 million and a decrease in deferred tax assets of $0.6 million partially offset by a decrease in deferred revenue of $1.9 million, the net loss generated during the prior 12 months of $1.1 million, a decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities of $0.9 million, an increase in inventory of $0.6 million and a decrease in income taxes payable of $0.3 million.

Net cash used by operating activities was $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, resulting from a $3.6 million increase in inventory, the $0.9 million of net loss generated during the period, a $0.2 million increase in accounts receivable and an increase in royalty receivables of $0.1 million partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $0.6 million decrease in prepaid purchases and a $0.3 million decrease in accounts payable and other current liabilities.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $25.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 due to a reduction in short term certificates of deposit.

Net cash used by financing activities was approximately $26,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 due to repurchases of common stock pursuant to the Company’s stock repurchase plan.

The Company’s principal existing sources of cash are generated from operations. The Company believes that its existing cash balance and sources of cash will be sufficient to support existing operations over the next 12 months.

As previously disclosed, Funai terminated its license agreement with the Company effective as of December 31, 2016. This event will continue to have a material impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash position. The Company is analyzing the impacts to its business of these events and is identifying strategic courses of action for consideration.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have a material impact on its financial statements.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d — 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons; by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Our controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.

The Company’s management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2017, are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Although the Company is not currently a party to any material active litigation, from time to time, third parties assert claims against the Company regarding matters arising out of the ordinary course of business. Management cannot estimate with certainty the Company’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to any litigation matters or the disposition of any claims that it could incur. However, management believes, based on its examination of all existing litigation matters, that the Company’s ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company’s operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended for the year ended March 31, 2017, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of the Company’s common stock. There have been no material changes to our risk factors disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended March 31, 2017.
