PART I
General
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 13, 1963. On December 21, 2018, the Company changed its name from EnviroStar, Inc. to EVI Industries, Inc.
The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a value-added distributor, and provides advisory and technical services. Through the Company’s vast sales organization, it provides its customers planning, designing, and consulting services related to their commercial laundry operations. The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers installation, maintenance, and repair services.
The Company’s customers include retail, commercial, industrial, institutional, and government customers. Purchases made by customers range from parts and accessories, to single or multiple units of equipment, to large complex systems, as well as installation, maintenance and repair services.
Prior to the completion of the Company’s first acquisition pursuant to its “buy-and-build” growth strategy in October 2016, the Company’s operations related to the activities described above consisted solely of the business and operations of Steiner-Atlantic Corp. (“Steiner-Atlantic”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Beginning in 2015, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy which includes (i) the consideration and pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions expected to complement the Company’s existing business or that might otherwise offer growth opportunities for, or benefit, the Company and (ii) the implementation of a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain additional initiatives, which may include investments in new locations, additional product lines, expanded service capabilities and advanced technologies. See “Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy” below for additional information regarding the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy, including information regarding the acquisitions consummated by the Company since its implementation of the “buy-and-build” growth strategy in 2015.
The Company maintains a culture designed to reward performance through a variety of performance-based pay, commission programs, cash incentives, and stock-based equity programs. Stock-based plans include a voluntary employee stock purchase plan and equity compensation plans under which restricted stock and other equity awards are available for grant based generally on individual merit and measures of performance. The Company’s equity compensation plans are designed to promote long-term performance, as well as to create long-term employee retention, continuity of leadership, and an ownership culture whereby management and employees think and act as owners of the Company. The Company believes that its restricted stock program promotes this culture and long-term performance because restricted stock grants generally provide for long-term vesting, including in certain cases entirely at the end of the recipient’s career (age 62 or later) and, prior to vesting, these grants remain subject to forfeiture.
The Company reports its results of operations through a single reportable segment.
Available Information
The Company files Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, files or furnishes Current Reports on Form 8-K, files or furnishes amendments to those reports, and files proxy and information statements with the SEC. These reports and statements, as well as beneficial ownership reports filed by the Company’s officers and directors and beneficial owners of 10% or more of the Company’s common stock, may be accessed free of charge on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov and, as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed with, or furnished to, the SEC, on the Company’s website at http://www.evi-ind.com. The information contained on or connected to the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into, or otherwise a part of, this Report. Further, references to the website URL of the Company in this Report are intended to be inactive textual references only.

Products and Services
The Company sells, rents and leases an extensive line of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and steam and hot water boilers manufactured by others, as well as related replacement parts and accessories, and provides installation and maintenance services.
The commercial and industrial laundry equipment distributed by the Company includes washroom, finishing, material handling, and mechanical equipment such as washers and dryers, tunnel systems and coin-operated machines, many of which are designed to reduce utility and water consumption. Finishing equipment distributed by the Company includes sheet feeders, flatwork ironers, automatic sheet folders, and stackers. Material handling equipment distributed by the Company includes conveyor and rail systems. Mechanical equipment distributed by the Company includes boilers, hot water/steam systems, water purification, reuse and recycling systems and air compressors.
Boiler products distributed by the Company include high efficiency, low emission steam boilers, steam systems and hot water systems that are used in the laundry and dry cleaning industry for temperature control, heating, pressing and de-wrinkling, and in the healthcare industry, food and beverage industry, and other industrial markets for sterilization, product sealing and other purposes.
The Company also sells replacement parts and accessories for the products it distributes.
In addition to its distribution of products, the Company also provides installation and maintenance services to its customers.
The Company seeks to position and price its products to appeal to customers in each of the high-end, mid-range and value-priced markets, as the products are generally offered in a wide range of price points to address the needs of a diverse customer base. The Company believes that its portfolio of products affords the Company’s customers a “one-stop shop” for commercial, industrial and vended laundry and dry cleaning machines, boilers and accessories and that, as a result, the Company is able to attract and support potential customers who can choose from the Company’s broad product line. The Company believes its installation and maintenance services are competitively priced.
Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy
As described above, in addition to its pursuit of organic growth initiatives, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy in 2015. The “buy” component of the strategy includes the consideration and pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions expected to complement the Company’s existing business or that might otherwise offer growth opportunities for, or benefit, the Company. The Company is disciplined and conservative in its consideration of acquisitions and generally seeks to identify opportunities that fit certain financial and strategic criteria. The “build” component of the strategy involves implementing a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain additional initiatives, which may include investments in new locations, additional product lines, expanded service capabilities and advanced technologies. The Company generally seeks to structure acquisitions to include both cash and stock consideration. The Company believes the issuance of stock consideration aligns the interests of the sellers of the acquired businesses, who the Company generally seeks to maintain to continue to operate the acquired businesses, with the interests of the Company’s other stockholders. The sellers as well as other key individuals at the acquired businesses may also be provided with the opportunity to own shares of the Company’s common stock through equity-based plans of the Company.

Since the implementation of its “buy-and-build” growth strategy in 2015, the Company has consummated the following acquisitions:
On October 10, 2016, the Company purchased substantially all the assets of Western State Design, LLC (“WSD”), a California-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry, for a purchase price consisting of $18.5 million in cash and 2,044,990 shares of the Company’s common stock. The cash consideration was financed through $12.5 million of borrowings under the credit facility entered into at the time and $6.0 million of proceeds from the sale of 1,290,323 shares of the Company’s common stock to Symmetric Capital II LLC (“Symmetric Capital II”) in a private placement transaction. Henry M. Nahmad, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President and controlling stockholder, is the Manager of, and may be deemed to control, Symmetric Capital II.
On June 19, 2017, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of Martin-Ray Laundry Systems, Inc. (“MRLS”), a Colorado-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry (the “MRLS Acquisition”). The consideration for the transaction consisted of $2.0 million in cash and 98,668 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with cash on hand.
On October 31, 2017, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Tri-State Technical Services, Inc. (“TRS”), a Georgia-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition consisted of approximately $7.95 million in cash and 338,115 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its credit facility at the time.
On February 9, 2018, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Zuf Acquisitions I LLC (d/b/a/ AAdvantage Laundry Systems) for approximately $11.0 million and Sky-Rent LP for approximately $6.0 million. The acquired businesses are based in Dallas and distribute commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provide installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The approximately $20.4 million of total consideration paid by the Company consisted of approximately $8.1 million in cash and 348,360 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its credit facility at the time.
On September 12, 2018, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Scott Equipment, Inc. (“SEI”), a Texas-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with this acquisition (the “SEI Acquisition”) consisted of approximately $6.5 million in cash and 209,678 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its credit facility at the time.
On February 5, 2019, the Company acquired PAC Industries Inc. (“PAC”), a Pennsylvania-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry, pursuant to a merger whereby PAC merged with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “PAC Acquisition”). The consideration to paid by the Company in connection with the PAC Acquisition consisted of $6.4 million in cash (subject to certain working capital and other adjustments) and 179,847 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its current credit facility.
5
In addition to the SEI Acquisition and the PAC Acquisition, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 (“fiscal 2019”), the Company completed the acquisition of four other companies: Industrial Laundry Services, Inc. (“ILS”) on September 4, 2018; Washington Automated, Inc. (“WAI”) on November 6, 2018; Skyline Equipment, Inc. (“Skyline”) on November 14, 2018; and Worldwide Laundry, Inc. (“WWL”) on November 16, 2018, each of which is a distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and a provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The total consideration for these four transactions consisted of $3.5 million in cash (subject to certain working capital and other adjustments), net of $738,000 of cash acquired, and 141,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration for each acquisition with credit facility borrowings. The acquisitions of ILS, Skyline and WWL were structured as asset acquisitions. The acquisition of WAI was effected by the merger of WAI with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Each transaction described above was effected by the Company, indirectly through a separate wholly-owned subsidiary formed by the Company for the purpose of effecting the transaction and operating the related business following the transaction. In connection with each asset acquisition, the Company, indirectly through its applicable wholly-owned subsidiary, also assumed certain of the liabilities of the acquired business. The financial position, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of the acquired businesses following the respective closing dates are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In addition, on August 1, 2019, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Commercial Laundry Products, Inc., Professional Laundry Systems of PA, Inc., and Professional Laundry Systems West, Inc., New York-based distributors of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the transactions consisted of cash and stock and was immaterial to the Company on a consolidated basis.
Customers and Markets
The Company’s customer base consists of approximately 50,000 customers in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean and Latin America. The Company’s commercial and industrial laundry equipment and boilers are sold or leased primarily to laundry plants, hotels, motels, restaurants, cruise lines, hospitals, hospital combines, nursing homes, government institutions, distributors, vended laundry facilities and specialized users. No single customer in terms of revenue generated for fiscal 2019 exceeded 10% of the Company’s revenues. Historically, the Company has not noted any significant seasonality.
Sales, Marketing and Customer Support
The Company employs sales personnel to market its products in the United States, Canada, the Caribbean and Latin America. The Company has exclusive and nonexclusive distribution rights to market its products. Orders for equipment and replacement parts and accessories are generally obtained by telephone, e-mail and fax inquiries originated by the customer or by the Company, from existing customer relationships and from newly formed customer relationships. The Company supports its sales, rental and leasing activities through its websites and by advertising in trade publications, participating in trade shows and engaging in regional promotions and incentive programs.
6
The Company seeks to establish customer satisfaction by offering:
· | an experienced sales and service organization; |
· | a comprehensive product offering; |
· | competitive pricing; |
· | maintenance of comprehensive and well-stocked inventories of equipment, replacement parts and accessories, often with same day or overnight availability; |
· | design and layout services; |
· | installation and maintenance services; |
· | on-site training performed by factory trained technicians; and |
· | toll-free support lines and technical websites to resolve customer service problems. |
The Company trains its employees to provide service and customer support. The Company uses in-person classroom training, instructional videos and vendor sponsored seminars to educate employees about product information. In addition, the Company’s technical staff has prepared training manuals, written in English and Spanish, relating to specific training procedures. The Company’s technical personnel are retrained as the Company believes to be necessary, including in connection with the development of new technology.
Foreign Sales
Substantially all of the Company’s revenues from foreign activities relate to the sale of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and boilers to customers in Canada, the Caribbean and Latin America.
All of the Company’s foreign sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located.
Sources of Supply
The Company purchases commercial and industrial laundry products, dry cleaning machines, boilers and other products for distribution from a number of manufacturers and suppliers. Purchases from three manufacturers accounted for a total of approximately 62% of the Company’s product purchases for fiscal 2019 and purchases from four manufacturers accounted for approximately 76% of the Company’s product purchases for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”). No other manufacturers accounted for more than 10% of product purchases. The major manufacturers of the products sold by the Company are Alliance Laundry Systems, LLC, American Dryer Corporation, Chicago Dryer Company, Cleaver Brooks Inc., Continental Girbau, Inc., Dexter Laundry, Inc., FMB Group, Fulton Thermal Corp., Kannegiesser ETECH, Maytag Corporation, Pellerin Milnor Corporation, Unipress Corporation and Whirlpool Corporation. The Company has generally not experienced difficulty in purchasing products it distributes and believes that it has good working relationships with its current manufacturers and suppliers. The Company has contracts with several of the manufacturers and suppliers of the products which the Company sells and has established, long-standing relationships with most of its manufacturers and suppliers. The Company believes that such relationships provide the Company with certain competitive advantages, including exclusivity for certain products in certain areas and, in certain cases, favorable prices and terms. In connection with certain recent acquisitions, the business relationship between the acquired business and a principal supplier ceased. As a result, the businesses distributed other brands from one or more of the Company’s other suppliers. The Company does not believe that the brand switch had a material adverse impact on the Company as a whole. However, there is no assurance that the Company or any of its acquired businesses will maintain its relationships with any of its suppliers, and the loss of certain of these relationships, including the loss of a relationship with a principal supplier and any inability to successfully mitigate the effect of the loss of such supplier, could adversely affect the Company’s business and results. See also “The Company’s business and results may be adversely affected if the Company does not maintain its relationships with its significant suppliers or customers” under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” below.
7
Due to special options and features on most of the larger and more expensive equipment ordered by customers, in most instances, the Company purchases the equipment distributed by it after its receipt of orders from its customers. However, from time to time, including in fiscal 2019, the Company may decide to purchase inventory in advance to take advantage of favorable pricing at the time or for other purposes, including to support the Company’s sales growth initiatives in new distribution territories and in support of growth initiatives related to the establishment of new manufacturer and supplier distribution relationships. The Company also maintains an inventory of more standardized and smaller-sized equipment that often requires more rapid delivery to meet customer needs.
Competition
The commercial and industrial laundry, dry cleaning equipment and boiler distribution business is highly competitive and fragmented, with over 500 full-line or partial-line equipment distributors in the United States. The Company’s management believes that no one competitor has a major share of the market, substantially all competitors are independently owned, and, with the exception of several regional distributors, distributors operate primarily in local markets. In the United States, the Company’s primary competition is from a number of independently owned distributors and certain manufacturers which own distribution businesses operating in North America. In foreign markets, the Company also competes with several independently owned distributors and manufacturer-owned distribution businesses. Competition is based primarily on a distributor’s ability to effectively plan and design optimal commercial and industrial laundry facilities, competitive pricing, representation of reliable and high-quality products, in-house installation, maintenance, and repair services, available and on-time delivery of equipment, parts, and accessories, and the ability to provide continuous support services to the customer. The Company seeks to compete in these areas by employing experienced and successful professionals, by offering a comprehensive product line, by employing a robust network of qualified installation and service technicians, by maintaining optimized inventories of equipment, parts, and accessories at well-located facilities and on service vehicles, by investing in advanced technologies that improve the customer experience, and by expansion of its suite of value-added services.
Research and Development
The Company’s research and development efforts and expenses are generally immaterial as most of the Company’s products are distributed for manufacturers that perform their own research and development.
Service Marks and Tradenames
The Company is the owner of the United States service mark registration for the name DRYCLEAN USA®, which is licensed by it to retail dry cleaning establishments. The Company intends to use and protect its service marks, tradenames and other intellectual property, as necessary.
Compliance with Environmental and Other Government Laws and Regulations
Over the past several decades, federal, state and local governments in the United States and various other countries have enacted environmental protection laws in response to public concerns about the environment. A number of industries, including the commercial and industrial dry cleaning and laundry equipment industries, are subject to these evolving laws and implementing regulations. As a supplier to the industry, the Company serves customers who are primarily responsible for compliance with environmental regulations. Among the United States federal laws that the Company believes are applicable to the industry are the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), which provides for the investigation and remediation of hazardous waste sites, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended (“RCRA”), which regulates the generation and transportation of hazardous waste as well as its treatment, storage and disposal, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (“OSHA”), which regulates exposure to toxic substances and other health and safety hazards in the workplace. In addition, most states and a number of local jurisdictions have laws that regulate the environment, which are at least as stringent as the federal laws. The Company is also subject to rules and regulations with respect to its contracts and dealings with government facilities.
8
The Company does not believe that compliance with federal, state and local environmental and other laws and regulations which have been adopted have had, or will have, a material effect on its capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
Employees
As of August 15, 2019, the Company had 475 employees. None of the Company’s employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company believes that its relations with its employees are satisfactory.
The Company is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described below, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and the value of the Company’s common stock. The risks described below are not the only risks faced by the Company. Additional risks not presently known to the Company or other factors that the Company does not presently perceive to present significant risks to the Company at this time may also impair the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, or the value of the Company’s common stock.
Acquisitions could result in operating difficulties or otherwise adversely impact the Company’s business and results of operations, and may result in dilution to the Company’s stockholders.
Acquisitions are an important element of the Company’s growth strategy and are material to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Acquisitions and the Company’s efforts with respect thereto involve a number of risks, including, but not limited to:
· | the ability to identify and consummate transactions with acquisition candidates; |
· | the successful operation and integration of acquired companies; |
· | diversion of management’s attention from other business functions and operations; |
· | strain on managerial and operational resources as management tries to oversee larger operations; |
· | difficulty implementing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting at the acquired businesses; |
· | possible loss of key employees and/or customer or supplier relationships of the acquired business (See “The Company’s business and results may be adversely impacted if the Company does not maintain its relationships with its significant suppliers or customers” below); and |
· | exposure to unforeseen liabilities of the acquired businesses. |
As a result of these or other problems and risks, businesses the Company may acquire may not produce the revenues, earnings, cash flows or business synergies anticipated, and the acquired businesses may not perform as expected. As a result, the Company may incur higher costs and realize lower revenues and earnings than anticipated. The Company may not be able to successfully address these problems, integrate any acquired businesses or generate sufficient revenue to offset the associated costs or other negative effects on its business.
9
In addition, acquisitions may result in dilutive issuances of the Company’s equity securities and the incurrence of debt. See “The Company’s indebtedness may impact its financial condition and results of operations, and the terms of the Company’s indebtedness may place restrictions on the Company” below. Acquisitions may also result in contingent liabilities, or amortization expenses, or impairment of goodwill and/or purchased long-lived assets, and restructuring charges, any of which could adversely impact the Company’s financial condition or results.
Rapid growth may place significant demands on management, as well as on the Company’s accounting, financial, information and other systems and on the Company’s business. Further, management may not be able to manage the Company’s growth effectively or successfully, and the Company’s financial, accounting, information and other systems may not be able to successfully accommodate the Company’s growth. In addition, the Company’s accounting and other professional expenses associated with being a public company have increased as a result of the Company’s growth, including the increase in the Company’s market capitalization, and such expenses may continue to increase in the future.
Further, the Company may not be successful in consummating acquisitions or other strategic transactions as expected, whether on the contemplated terms, in the time frame anticipated, or at all. Expenses related to the Company’s pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions may be significant and will be incurred by the Company regardless of whether the underlying acquisition or other strategic transaction is ultimately consummated.
The Company’s indebtedness may impact its financial condition and results of operations, and the terms of the Company’s indebtedness may place restrictions on the Company.
The Company’s level of indebtedness may have several important effects on the Company’s operations, including, without limitation, that the Company may be required to use a portion of its cash for the payment of principal and interest due on outstanding indebtedness, that outstanding indebtedness and the Company’s leverage position will increase the impact on the Company of negative changes in general economic and industry conditions, as well as competitive pressures, and that the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing for acquisitions, working capital or other corporate purposes may be impacted.
On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into a syndicated credit agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) for a five-year revolving credit facility in the maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. A portion of the revolving credit facility is available for swingline loans of up to a sublimit of $5 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit of up to a sublimit of $10 million. The Company had $40.8 million outstanding under the 2018 Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2019.
Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the 2018 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. A significant increase in interest rates could materially impact the cost of the Company’s indebtedness under the 2018 Credit Agreement and any other floating rate debt that the Company may incur in the future. Furthermore, regulatory changes, such as the announcement of the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021, may adversely affect the Company’s floating-rate debt. If LIBOR ceases to exist, the Company may need to renegotiate the 2018 Credit Agreement and any other credit agreements it may enter into that utilize LIBOR as a factor in determining the interest rate, which could adversely impact the cost of the Company’s debt.
10
The 2018 Credit Agreement contains covenants applicable to the Company, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios, as well as other covenants which may place restrictions on, among other things, liens, investments, indebtedness, fundamental changes, acquisitions, dispositions of property, making specified restricted payments (including cash dividends and stock repurchases that would result in the Company exceeding an agreed to Consolidated Leverage Ratio), and transactions with affiliates.
The Company may incur additional debt financing as determined to be appropriate by management, including in connection with the financing of acquisitions or otherwise, which would increase the Company’s vulnerability to the risk factors described above related to its level of indebtedness and may place restrictions on the Company similar or in addition to those contained in the 2018 Credit Agreement. There is no assurance that the Company will receive any financing which the Company may seek to obtain in the future on acceptable terms or at all, including in the event additional funds are necessary to consummate an acquisition or support the Company’s business operations.
The products the Company distributes could fail to perform according to specifications or prove to be unreliable, which could damage the Company’s customer relationships and industry reputation and result in lawsuits and loss of sales.
The Company’s customers require demanding specifications for product performance and reliability. Product defects or other failures to perform to specifications or as expected could result in higher service costs and may damage the Company’s customer relationships and industry reputation and/or otherwise negatively impact the Company’s business, operations and results. Further, the Company may be subject to lawsuits if, among other things, any of the products it distributes fails to operate properly or causes property or other physical damage.
The Company’s business and results may be adversely affected if the Company does not maintain its relationships with its significant suppliers or customers.
The Company purchases the products it distributes from a number of manufacturers and suppliers. Purchases from three manufacturers accounted for a total of approximately 62% of the Company’s product purchases for fiscal 2019 and purchases from four manufacturers accounted for approximately 76% of the Company’s product purchases for fiscal 2018. No other manufacturers accounted for more than 10% of product purchases. While the Company has not historically experienced difficulty in purchasing products it distributes, and believes it has good working relationships with the manufacturers or suppliers from which the Company purchases its products, if such relationships deteriorate or the Company is unable to maintain such relationships, including with any of its or its acquired businesses’ principal manufacturers or suppliers, the Company’s business and results could be materially and adversely impacted. In addition, efforts of the Company and its acquired businesses to mitigate any loss, including brand shifts, may not be successful. Further, while the Company does have contracts with certain of its manufacturers, such contracts are generally short term agreements and can be terminated on short notice, and the Company does not have contracts with its other manufacturers. In addition, suppliers may not comply with the terms of any agreements to which the Company is a party or may choose to terminate such agreements, allow such agreements to expire without renewal, or seek to revise the agreements on terms which are less favorable to the Company than the prevailing terms, any of which could materially and adversely impact the Company’s business and results.
In addition, while the Company distributes its products to various users, including laundry plants, hotels, motels, restaurants, cruise lines, hospitals, nursing homes, government institutions, vended laundry facilities, independent and franchise dry cleaning stores and chains and distributors, the Company’s operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely impacted if the Company loses a significant customer, fails to meet its customers’ expectations or otherwise realizes a decrease in its revenue from operations.
11
The Company faces substantial competition.
The commercial and industrial laundry, dry cleaning equipment and boiler distribution business is highly competitive and fragmented, with over 500 full-line or partial-line equipment distributors in the United States. The Company’s management believes that no single competitor of the Company has a major share of the market, substantially all competitors are independently owned, and, with the exception of several regional distributors, distributors operate primarily in local markets. In the United States, the Company’s primary competition is from a number of independently owned distributors and certain manufacturers which own distribution businesses operating in North America. In foreign markets, the Company also competes with independently owned distributors and manufacturer-owned distribution businesses. Certain of the Company’s competitors may have greater financial and other resources than the Company. In addition, some of the Company’s competitors may have less indebtedness than the Company, and therefore may potentially have more cash and working capital available for business purposes other than debt service. The Company’s results and financial condition would be materially and adversely impacted if the Company is unable to compete effectively. Further, the Company may not be able to operate profitably if the competitive environment changes.
Inability to protect the Company’s service marks and other proprietary rights could adversely impact the Company’s competitive position.
While the Company intends to and has taken steps to protect its service marks and other proprietary rights, the Company may not be successful in doing so and third parties may infringe or misappropriate the Company’s intellectual property and proprietary rights. Any infringement or misappropriation of the Company’s intellectual property and proprietary rights could damage their value and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results and financial condition. Further, the Company may have to engage in litigation to protect the rights to its intellectual property and proprietary rights, which could result in significant litigation expenses and require a significant amount of management’s time.
Damages to or disruptions at the Company’s facilities could adversely impact the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.
Although the Company has certain limited protection afforded by insurance, the Company’s business, earnings and financial condition could be materially adversely affected if it suffers damages to, or disruptions at, its facilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s facilities in Florida, Georgia and Texas are subject to hurricane casualty and flood risk and its facilities in California are subject to earthquake casualty risk.
The Company faces risks associated with environmental and other regulation.
The Company’s business and operations are subject to federal, state, local and foreign environmental and other laws and regulations, including environmental laws governing the discharge of pollutants, the handling, generation, storage and disposal of hazardous materials, substances, and wastes and the cleanup of contaminated sites. The Company is also subject to rules and regulations with respect to its contracts and dealings with government facilities. The Company may not remain in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and could be required to incur significant costs as a result of violations of, liabilities under, or efforts to comply with, applicable laws and regulations. In addition, violations may have other adverse implications for the Company, including negative public relations and potential litigation. Further, the Company may incur significant compliance costs in the event of changes to applicable laws and regulations.
12
The Company’s assets may suffer uninsured losses.
The Company attempts to ensure that its assets, including the equipment and parts that it sells, are adequately insured to cover property and casualty losses as well as any other liabilities to which the Company is reasonably expected to be subject. However, insurance may be expensive or difficult to obtain, and there are certain types of losses, generally catastrophic in nature, such as losses due to wars, acts of terrorism, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, pollution, fire or environmental disasters or other matters, which are uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be insured subject to limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. In addition, there may in certain cases be questions as to when the risk of loss related to products sold is transferred to the customer. If the equipment suffers a loss and risk of loss is deemed not to have transferred to the customer, the Company may be liable for the loss, which may not be insured. If the Company’s insurance coverage is not adequate, or the Company otherwise incurs uninsured losses, the Company’s operating results and financial condition would be adversely impacted.
The Company faces risks related to its foreign sales.
The Company’s revenues from foreign sales relate principally to the Company’s sales of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and boilers to Canada, the Caribbean and Latin America. All of the Company’s foreign sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which customers and competitors are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located.
Further, conducting an international business inherently involves a number of difficulties, risks and uncertainties, such as:
· | export and trade restrictions, |
· | inconsistent and changing regulatory requirements, |
· | tariffs and other trade barriers, |
· | cultural issues, |
· | problems in collecting accounts receivable, |
· | political instability, |
· | local economic downturns, and |
· | potentially adverse tax consequences. |
Any of the above factors may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, prospects, operating results or financial condition.
Henry M. Nahmad may be deemed to control the Company.
Henry M. Nahmad, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, may be deemed to control the Company as a result of his voting power over shares representing approximately 59.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock as of June 30, 2019. The shares over which Mr. Nahmad has voting power include shares subject to restricted stock awards granted to Mr. Nahmad, shares held by Symmetric Capital LLC (“Symmetric Capital”) and Symmetric Capital II, each of which may be deemed to be controlled by Mr. Nahmad as a result of his serving as Manager of such entity, and shares which Symmetric Capital has the right to vote pursuant to Stockholders Agreements entered into with Michael S. Steiner, a director and Executive Vice President and Secretary of the Company, and his brother, Robert M. Steiner, and with WSD, Dennis Mack, a director and Executive Vice President, Corporate Strategy of the Company, and Tom Marks, Executive Vice President, Business Development of the Company. Copies of such Stockholder Agreements are filed as exhibits to this Report. Under the Company’s Bylaws, the election of directors requires a plurality vote and all other matters put to a vote of the Company’s stockholders require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the Company’s common stock represented at a meeting, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote on the matter unless a greater percentage is required by applicable law. Consequently, other than in very limited circumstances where a greater vote is required by applicable law, Mr. Nahmad, without the consent or vote of any other stockholders of the Company, has the voting power to elect directors and approve other actions that require stockholder approval. Mr. Nahmad’s interests may conflict with the interests of the Company’s other stockholders. In addition, Mr. Nahmad’s control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control or changes in management and/or adversely impact the market price of the Company’s common stock or the ability of the Company’s other stockholders to receive a premium for their shares in connection with any sale of the Company.
13
Further, as a result of Mr. Nahmad’s controlling voting position with respect to the Company’s common stock, the Company is a “controlled company” within the meaning of the listing standards of the NYSE American, on which the Company’s common stock is listed. As a “controlled company,” the Company is not required under the listing standards of the NYSE American to comply with certain corporate governance requirements set forth therein, including:
· | the requirement that a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors consists of independent directors; |
· | the requirement that nominating and corporate governance matters be decided solely by a nominating/corporate governance committee consisting of independent directors; and |
· | the requirement that executive compensation matters be decided by a compensation committee consisting of independent directors. |
While executive compensation matters are determined by a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors (and historically were subject to approval of the Company’s independent directors prior to the establishment in fiscal 2018 of a separately-designated standing compensation committee) and the Company’s Board of Directors is currently comprised of a majority of independent directors, the Company does not have a standing nominating/corporate governance committee and the Company has in the past from time to time maintained a Board of Directors not comprised of a majority of independent directors. In addition, in the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company may choose to utilize or continue to utilize any or all of the exceptions in the future. As a result, the Company’s stockholders may not have certain of the same protections as a stockholder of other publicly-traded companies and the market price of the Company’s common stock may be adversely affected.
The concentration of ownership with respect to the Company’s common stock also results in there being a limited trading volume, which may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell their shares and increase the price volatility of the Company’s common stock.
As a “smaller reporting company,” the Company may avail itself of reduced disclosure requirements, which may make the Company’s common stock less attractive to investors.
Under applicable SEC rules and regulations, the Company is a “smaller reporting company” and will continue to be a “smaller reporting company” for so long as the market value of the Company’s common stock held by non-affiliates as of the end of its most recently completed second fiscal quarter is less than $250 million. As a “smaller reporting company,” the Company has relied on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies. The Company may continue to rely on such exemptions for so long as the Company remains a “smaller reporting company.” These exemptions include reduced financial disclosure and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. The Company’s reliance on these exemptions may result in the public finding the Company’s common stock to be less attractive and adversely impact the market price of, or trading market for, the Company’s common stock.
14
The Company is subject to risks relating to evaluations of internal control over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
The Company has incurred, and expects to continue to incur, a substantial amount of management time and resources to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In this Report, the Company’s management has provided an assessment as to the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. This Report includes such attestation. However, the requirements of Section 404, specifically 404(b), are new to the Company, as the attestation of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm was first required in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. There is no assurance that the Company will continue to timely comply with such requirements nor can there be assurance that significant deficiencies and/or material weaknesses will not be identified by management or the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, any of which may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the Company’s compliance efforts will continue to require significant expenditures and devotion of management time, and may divert management’s attention from the Company’s operations. In addition, while businesses acquired during the fiscal year covered by the applicable Annual Report on Form 10-K are permitted to be excluded from the scope of management’s report on internal control over financial reporting and the related auditor attestation for such Annual Report on Form 10-K (as is the case with the exclusion of SEI, PAC and the four other businesses acquired in fiscal 2019 from the scope of management’s report on internal control over financial reporting and the related auditor attestation for this Report), the Company will face challenges and be required to incur expenses in connection with, and devote significant management time to, the internal control over financial reporting of acquired businesses. There is no assurance that any issues, deficiencies or weaknesses identified at the acquired business will be remedied in a timely or cost-efficient manner.
The Company’s success depends on key personnel, the loss of whom could harm the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.
The Company’s business is dependent on the active participation of its executive officers, including Henry M. Nahmad, Michael S. Steiner, Dennis Mack and Tom Marks. The loss of the services of any of these individuals could adversely affect the Company’s business and prospects. In addition, the Company’s success is dependent on its ability to retain and attract additional qualified management and other personnel. Competition for such talent is intense, and the Company may not be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel.
Failure to maintain the integrity of internal or customer data could result in faulty business decisions or operational inefficiencies, damage the Company’s reputation and/or subject the Company to costs, fines or lawsuits.
The Company collects and retains internal and customer data, including social security numbers, credit card numbers and other personally identifiable information of customers in various internal information systems. The Company also maintains personally identifiable information about its employees. The integrity and protection of that customer, employee and company data is critical to the Company. The Company could make faulty decisions if that data is inaccurate or incomplete. The Company’s customers and employees also have a high expectation that their personal information will be adequately protected. The regulatory environment as well as the requirements imposed on the Company by the payment card industry surrounding information, security and privacy is also increasingly demanding. The Company’s systems may be unable to satisfy changing regulatory and payment card industry requirements and employee and customer expectations, or may require significant additional investments or time in order to do so.
The Company’s information systems and records may be subject to security breaches, cyber attacks, system failures, viruses, operator error or inadvertent releases of data. A significant theft, loss, or fraudulent use of customer, employee or company data maintained could adversely impact the Company’s reputation and could result in remedial and other expenses, fines or litigation. A breach in the security of the Company’s information systems could lead to an interruption in the operation of the Company’s systems, resulting in operational inefficiencies and a loss of profits. In addition, conversions to new information technology systems require effective change management processes and may result in cost overruns, delays or business interruptions. If the Company’s information technology systems are disrupted, become obsolete or do not adequately support the Company’s strategic, operational or compliance needs, the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows may be adversely affected.
15
The issuance of preferred stock and common stock, and the Company’s Board of Directors authority to approve issuances of preferred stock and common stock, could adversely affect the Company’s stockholders and have an anti-takeover effect.
As permitted by Delaware law, the Company’s Board of Directors is authorized under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), to approve the issuance by the Company of up to 200,000 shares of preferred stock, and to designate the relative rights, preferences and limitations of any preferred stock so issued, in each case, without any further action on the part of the Company’s stockholders. Currently, no shares of preferred stock are outstanding. In the event that the Company issues preferred stock in the future that has preference over the Company’s common stock with respect to payment of dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the rights of holders of shares of the Company’s common stock may be adversely affected. In addition, the Company is authorized under its Certificate of Incorporation to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of common stock. There are currently approximately 11.8 million shares of common stock outstanding. Subject to applicable law and the rules and regulations of the NYSE American, the Company’s Board of Directors (or a committee thereof, in the case of shares issued under the Company’s equity-based compensation plan) has the power to approve the issuance of any authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s common stock, and any such issuances, including, without limitation, those under the equity-based compensation plan or pursuant to any acquisitions consummated by the Company or in connection with the financing thereof, would result in dilution to the Company’s stockholders. These provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation could also delay, defer or prevent a change of control of the Company or its management, and could limit the price that investors are willing to pay in the future for shares of the Company’s common stock.
Litigation and legal proceedings, the costs of defending the same and the impact of any finding of liability or damages could adversely impact the Company and its financial condition and operating results.
The Company may from time to time become subject to litigation and other legal proceedings. Litigation and other legal proceedings may require the Company to incur significant expenses, including those relating to legal and other professional fees. In addition, litigation and other legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and adverse outcomes in litigation or other legal proceedings could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, cash flows, and operating results.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.
None.
The Company’s principal executive offices are located in Miami, Florida. The Company’s principal properties include warehousing and distribution facilities and administrative office space, all of which are leased (generally for terms of three to five years).
At June 30, 2019, the Company had 20 warehousing and distribution facilities located across 11 U.S. states. Senior management and support staff are located at the Company’s principal executive offices or other administrative offices adjacent to the warehousing and distribution facilities. The facilities have an aggregate of approximately 308,000 square feet of space. The Company believes that its facilities are sufficient to meet the Company’s present operating needs.
16
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is from time to time involved in, or subject to, legal and regulatory claims, proceedings, demands or actions. While the Company does not believe that losses resulting from any currently pending proceedings would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations, litigation is inherently uncertain and the outcome of litigation cannot be predicted or determined in advance. In addition, the Company’s costs of defending against litigation and other proceedings, demands and actions could be material and is generally payable by the Company regardless of the merits of the claim. As of the date of filing of this Report, the Company is not aware of any pending legal proceedings to which the Company, including any of its subsidiaries, is a party which is expected to be material to the Company.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
The Company’s common stock is traded on the NYSE American under the symbol “EVI.”
As of September 4, 2019, there were approximately 235 holders of record of the Company’s common stock.
The following table sets forth information concerning cash dividends paid by the Company on its common stock during the last two fiscal years.
Declaration Date | Record Date | Payment Date | Per Share Amount |
December 11, 2018 | December 26, 2018 | January 8, 2019 | $0.13 |
December 12, 2017 | December 26, 2017 | January 9, 2018 | $0.12 |
The future declaration and payment of cash dividends with respect to the Company’s common stock, if any, will be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in light of the Company’s then-current financial condition and liquidity needs and other factors deemed relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors and may be subject to restrictions contained in the Company’s debt instruments. As described elsewhere in this Report, including under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in Item 7 of this Report, the Company’s 2018 Credit Agreement contains certain covenants which may, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability to pay dividends, and any future facilities may contain similar or more stringent requirements. The Company’s management does not believe that the covenants contained in the 2018 Credit Agreement currently materially limits the Company’s ability to pay dividends or are reasonably likely to materially limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends in the future. There is no assurance that the Company will pay dividends on its common stock in the future, whether consistent with the frequency previously paid, in the amounts previously paid, or at all.
See Part III, Item 12 of this Report for information regarding securities authorized for issuance under the Company’s equity-based compensation plans.
Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
Not required.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
General
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto contained in Item 8 of this Report. See also “Forward Looking Statements” preceding Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
Overview
The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a value-added distributor, and provides advisory and technical services. Through the Company’s vast sales organization, it provides its customers planning, designing, and consulting services related to their commercial laundry operations. The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers installation, maintenance, and repair services.
The Company’s customers include retail, commercial, industrial, institutional, and government customers. Purchases made by customers range from parts and accessories, to single or multiple units of equipment, to large complex systems, as well as installation, maintenance and repair services.
Prior to the completion of the Company’s first acquisition pursuant to its “buy-and-build” growth strategy in October 2016, the Company’s operations related to the activities described above consisted solely of the business and operations of Steiner-Atlantic Corp. (“Steiner-Atlantic”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Beginning in 2015, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy which includes (i) the consideration and pursuit of acquisitions and other strategic transactions expected to complement the Company’s existing business or that might otherwise offer growth opportunities for, or benefit, the Company and (ii) the implementation of a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain additional initiatives, which may include investments in new locations, additional product lines, expanded service capabilities and advanced technologies. See “Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy” below and in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for additional information regarding the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy, including information regarding the acquisitions consummated by the Company since its implementation of the “buy-and-build” growth strategy in 2015.
The Company reports its results of operations through a single reportable segment.
Total revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 (“fiscal 2019”) increased by 52% compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 (“fiscal 2018”). Net income for fiscal 2019 decreased by 6% from fiscal 2018. The increase in revenues during fiscal 2019 are primarily attributable to the revenues generated by the businesses acquired by the Company during fiscal 2019, including primarily Scott Equipment, Inc. and PAC Industries, Inc, which were acquired during September 2018 and February 2019, respectively, and the businesses acquired by the Company during fiscal 2018 whose results were consolidated in the Company’s financial statements for all of fiscal 2019 as compared to just the period of fiscal 2018 from the respective closing date through the end of fiscal 2018, including primarily Tri-State Technical Services, Inc., which was acquired in October 2017, and Zuf Acquisitions I LLC (d/b/a AAdvantage Laundry Systems) and Sky-Rent LP, which were acquired in February 2018. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to an increase in operating expenses in connection with the Company’s growth and in interest expense, due to an increase in outstanding debt, partially offset by the results of operations of the acquired businesses as well as a decrease in the Company’s effective tax rate. See “Buy-and-Build Growth Strategy” below and in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for additional information regarding the acquisitions consummated by the Company since its implementation of the “buy-and-build” growth strategy in 2015, including those consummated during fiscal 2018 and 2019.
18
The Company’s operating expenses consist of (a) selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily salaries, and commissions and marketing expenses that are variable and correlate to changes in sales, (b) expenses related to the operation of warehouse facilities, including a fleet of installation and service vehicles, and facility rent, which are payable mostly under non-cancelable operating leases, and (c) operating expenses at the parent company, including compensation expenses, fees for professional services, expenses associated with being a public company, including increased expenses attributable to the Company’s growth, and expenses in furtherance of the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy.
Buy-and Build Growth Strategy
Beginning in 2015, the Company implemented a “buy-and-build” growth strategy and has since acquired the following businesses under such growth strategy:
On October 10, 2016, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Western State Design, Inc. (“Western State Design”), completed the acquisition (the “Western State Design Acquisition”) of substantially all the assets of Western State Design, LLC (“WSD”), a California-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry, for a purchase price consisting of $18.5 million in cash and 2,044,990 shares of the Company’s common stock. The cash consideration was financed through $12.5 million of borrowings under the credit facility entered into at the time and $6.0 million of proceeds from the sale of 1,290,323 shares of the Company’s common stock to Symmetric Capital II LLC (“Symmetric Capital II”) in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement Transaction”). Henry M. Nahmad, the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, President and controlling stockholder, is the Manager of, and may be deemed to control, Symmetric Capital II.
On June 19, 2017, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Martin-Ray Laundry Systems Inc. (“Martin-Ray”), completed the acquisition (the “Martin-Ray Acquisition”) of substantially all of the assets of Martin-Ray Laundry Systems, Inc. (“MRLS”), a Colorado-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration for the transaction consisted of $2.0 million in cash and 98,668 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with cash on hand.
On October 31, 2017, the Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tri-State Technical Services, Inc. (“Tri-State”), completed the acquisition (the “TRS Acquisition”) of substantially all of the assets of Tri-State Technical Services, Inc. (“TRS”), a Georgia-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition consisted of $7.95 million in cash and 338,115 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under the Company’s credit facility at the time.
On February 9, 2018, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, AAdvantage Laundry Systems, Inc. (“AAdvantage”), completed the acquisition (the “AA Acquisition”) of substantially all of the assets of Zuf Acquisitions I LLC (d/b/a AAdvantage Laundry Systems) (“Zuf”) for approximately $11.0 million and Sky-Rent LP (collectively with Zuf, “AA”) for approximately $6.0 million. AAdvantage is based in Dallas and distributes commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provides installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the AA Acquisition consisted of approximately $8.1 million in cash and 348,360 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under the Company’s credit facility at the time.

On September 12, 2018, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Scott Equipment Inc. (“Scott Equipment”), completed the acquisition (the “SEI Acquisition”) of substantially all of the assets of Scott Equipment, Inc. (“SEI”), a Texas-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the SEI Acquisition consisted of $6.5 million in cash and 209,678 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under the Company’s credit facility at the time.
On February 5, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition (the “PAC Acquisition”) of PAC Industries Inc. (“PAC”), a Pennsylvania-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry, pursuant to a merger whereby PAC merged with and into PAC Industries Inc. (“PAC Industries”), a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The consideration to paid by the Company in connection with the PAC Acquisition consisted of $6.4 million in cash (subject to certain working capital and other adjustments) and 179,847 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its current credit facility.
In addition to the SEI Acquisition and the PAC Acquisition, during fiscal 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of four other companies: Industrial Laundry Services, Inc. (“ILS”) on September 4, 2018; Washington Automated, Inc. (“WAI”) on November 6, 2018; Skyline Equipment, Inc. (“Skyline”) on November 14, 2018; and Worldwide Laundry, Inc. (“WWL”) on November 16, 2018, each of which is a distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and a provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The total consideration for these four transactions consisted of $3.5 million in cash (subject to certain working capital and other adjustments), net of $738,000 of cash acquired, and 141,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration for each acquisition with credit facility borrowings. The acquisitions of ILS, Skyline and WWL were structured as asset acquisitions. The acquisition of WAI was effected by the merger of WAI with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for additional information about the acquisitions completed during fiscal 2019.
Each transaction described above was effected by the Company, indirectly through a separate wholly-owned subsidiary formed by the Company for the purpose of effecting the transaction and operating the related business following the transaction. In connection with each asset acquisition, the Company, indirectly through its applicable wholly-owned subsidiary, also assumed certain of the liabilities of the acquired business. The financial position, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of the acquired businesses following the respective closing dates are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In addition, on August 1, 2019, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Professional Laundry Systems, LLC (“Professional Laundry Systems”), completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Commercial Laundry Products, Inc., Professional Laundry Systems of PA, Inc. and Professional Laundry Systems West, Inc. (collectively “PLS”), a New York-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition consisted of cash and stock and was immaterial to the Company on a consolidated basis. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company, indirectly through Professional Laundry Systems, also assumed certain of the liabilities of PLS. The financial position, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of PLS following the August 1, 2019 closing date will be consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2019.

Consolidated Financial Condition
The Company’s total assets increased from $95.5 million at June 30, 2018 to $154.5 million at June 30, 2019. The increase in total assets was primarily attributable to the assets acquired by the Company in connection with the SEI Acquisition, the PAC Acquisition and the four other acquisitions completed during fiscal 2019 described above as well as increases in working capital, primarily accounts receivable and inventory. The increase in accounts receivable was also due to the timing of collection of payments and increased amounts that are owed related to progress billing on longer-term contracts. The increase in inventory was also due to (a) the timing of the Company’s placement of equipment orders, (b) purchases by the Company due to the availability of products from certain vendors at favorable prices during fiscal 2019, (c) inventory purchased to support the Company’s sales growth initiatives in new distribution territories, and (d) inventory purchased in support of growth initiatives related to the establishment of new manufacturer and supplier distribution relationships. Working capital was also impacted by a decrease in customer deposits which was primarily attributable to the completion of certain large sales orders during fiscal 2019. The Company’s total liabilities increased from $38.4 million at June 30, 2018 to $73.0 million at June 30, 2019. The increase in total liabilities was primarily attributable to the liabilities assumed by the Company in connection with the SEI Acquisition, the PAC Acquisition and the four other acquisitions completed during fiscal 2019 described above as well as funding the increases in working capital.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $5.0 million at June 30, 2019 compared to $1.3 million at June 30, 2018. The increase in cash was primarily due to proceeds from borrowings and earnings from operations, partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities, cash used to fund the cash consideration paid in connection with the SEI Acquisition, PAC Acquisition and the four other acquisitions completed in fiscal 2019, and a $1.6 million dividend paid during January 2019.
The following table summarizes the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):
Fiscal Years Ended June 30, | ||||||||
Net cash (used) provided by: | 2019 | 2018 | ||||||
Operating activities | $ | (8,725 | ) | $ | 11,345 | |||
Investing activities | $ | (15,521 | ) | $ | (14,181 | ) | ||
Financing activities | $ | 27,954 | $ | 3,439 | ||||
For fiscal 2019, operating activities used cash of approximately $8.7 million compared to approximately $11.3 million of cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2018. This $20.1 million increase in cash used by operating activities was primarily attributable to changes in accounts receivable, inventory and customer deposits, as discussed above, partially offset by an increase in non-cash charges.
Investing activities used cash of approximately $15.5 million during fiscal 2019 compared to approximately $14.2 million in fiscal 2018. This $1.3 million increase is due primarily to capital expenditures in furtherance of certain growth initiatives, including an increase of $789,000 in capital expenditures during fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 in connection with growth initiatives related to the equipment used in laundry route and rental business in which certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are engaged.
Financing activities provided cash of approximately $28.0 million in fiscal 2019 compared to approximately $3.4 million in fiscal 2018. The cash provided by financing activities during fiscal 2019 related to total borrowings under the Company’s 2018 Credit Agreement (as defined below) and its prior credit facility of approximately $113.0 million. Borrowings totaling $12.5 million were used to finance the cash consideration for the SEI Acquisition, PAC Acquisition, and the four other acquisitions completed in fiscal 2019. The balance of the Credit Facility borrowings were used to fund operating activities and other activities in support of the Company’s buy-and-build growth strategy. The cash provided by financing activities during fiscal 2019 was partially offset by the repayment of approximately $82.4 million of borrowings, the $1.6 million cash dividend paid by the Company to its stockholders during January 2019, and $728,000 in share repurchases to settle employee tax withholding liabilities upon the vesting of restricted shares as described below.
21
On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into a syndicated credit agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) for a five-year revolving credit facility in the maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. A portion of the revolving credit facility is available for swingline loans of up to a sublimit of $5 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit of up to a sublimit of $10 million.
Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the 2018 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. The 2018 Credit Agreement has a term of five years and matures on November 2, 2023.
The 2018 Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios. The 2018 Credit Agreement also contains other provisions which may restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, dispose of or acquire assets or businesses, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and capital expenditures, pay dividends, repurchase shares and enter into transactions with affiliates. At June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the 2018 Credit Agreement and $6.9 million was available to borrow under the revolving credit facility.
The obligations of the Company under the 2018 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.
In connection with its entry into the 2018 Credit Agreement on November 2, 2018, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts under, and terminated, its prior credit facility initially entered into in October 2016.
The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash from operations and funds available under the Company’s 2018 Credit Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operations and anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months. The Company may also seek to raise funds through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities or the incurrence of additional secured or unsecured indebtedness, including in connection with acquisitions or other transactions consummated by the Company as part of its “buy-and-build” growth strategy.
The Company has in place an equity incentive plan, the EVI Industries, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which restricted stock and other equity-based awards and cash awards may be granted to participants in the Plan. Upon request by a holder of restricted stock granted under the Plan, the Company may issue shares upon vesting net of the statutory withholding requirements that the Company pays on behalf of its employees. For financial statement purposes, the shares withheld are treated as being repurchased by the Company and reduce additional paid-in capital within shareholders’ equity and are reflected as repurchases in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and shareholders’ equity as they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon vesting. During the fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018, there were approximately $728,000 and $707,000, respectively, of share repurchases related to shares withheld upon the vesting of previously granted restricted stock awards.
22
Off-Balance Sheet Financing
As of June 30, 2019, the Company had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.
Results of Operations
Revenues
Revenues for fiscal 2019 increased by approximately $78.3 million (52%) from fiscal 2018. The increase in revenues was primarily due to the results post acquisition of Scott Equipment, which was acquired on September 12, 2018, and PAC Industries, which was acquired on February 5, 2019, as well as the four other acquisitions completed in fiscal 2019 as described above. In addition, the Company’s revenues for fiscal 2019 include a full year of revenues of Tri-State and AAdvantage, which were acquired on October 31, 2017 and February 9, 2018, respectively, as compared to approximately eight months and four months of results of Tri-State and AAdvantage, respectively, for fiscal 2018.
From time to time the Company enters into longer-term contracts to fulfill large complex laundry projects for divisions of the federal government where the nature of, and competition for, such contracts may result in a lower gross margin as compared to other equipment sales. During fiscal 2019, the Company experienced an increase in such lower-margin equipment sales. The Company believes that the increase in equipment sales provides a strong foundation for the Company to further strengthen its customer relationships, including that they may in the future result in higher gross margin opportunities from the sale of parts, accessories, supplies, and technical services related to the equipment. Despite the lower gross margin from such longer-term contracts, the Company believes that the long-term benefit from the increase in its installed equipment base will outweigh the possible short-term impact to gross margin.
Operating Expenses
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, | ||||||||
2019 | 2018 | |||||||
As a percentage of revenues: | ||||||||
Cost of sales, net | 76.9 | % | 75.7 | % | ||||
As a percentage of revenues: | ||||||||
Selling, general and administrative expenses | 20.0 | % | 19.7 | % |
Cost of sales, expressed as a percentage of revenues, increased to 76.9% in fiscal 2019 from 75.7% in fiscal 2018, representing gross margins of 23.1% in fiscal 2019 and 24.3% in fiscal 2018. As described above, from time to time the Company enters into longer-term contracts to fulfill large complex laundry projects for divisions of the federal government. These contracts generally have a lower gross margin compared to other equipment sales, however the Company believes that these contracts will result in higher margin opportunities in the long-term. The increase in cost of sales, expressed as a percentage of revenues, was primarily due to the Company’s increased engagement in longer-term federal government contracts during fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018. In the absence of such longer-term federal government contracts, cost of sales, expressed as a percentage of revenues, for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 increased 1.1% to 74.8% in fiscal 2019 from 73.7% in fiscal 2018, representing gross margins of 25.2% in fiscal 2019 and 26.3% in fiscal 2018, attributable primarily to changes in product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $16.1 million (55%) in fiscal 2019 compared to fiscal 2018. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 20.0% in fiscal 2019 from 19.7% in fiscal 2018. The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to (a) additional operating expenses associated with acquired businesses not reflected in prior fiscal year operating expenses, (b) additional operating expenses at the acquired businesses in pursuit of future growth and in support of the Company’s growing operations, (c) increases in operating expenses in connection with the Company’s growth, including greater accounting fees, legal fees, and insurance costs, (d) the addition of sales, service, and operations support professionals and related costs, as total personnel at June 30, 2019 increased by 71% compared to total personnel at June 30, 2018, with 76% of such increase attributable to sales and service related personnel, (e) increased investments in sales, service, and operations related technologies in support of the Company’s “buy-and-build growth” strategy, and (f) an increase in non-cash amortization expense related to the intangible assets the Company acquired in connection with its acquisitions and an increase in non-cash share-based compensation.
23
Interest expense, net was approximately $1.4 million in fiscal 2019 compared to approximately $552,000 of interest expense, net in fiscal 2018, and represents interest on borrowings. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in outstanding debt, partially offset by a decrease in interest rates under the 2018 Credit Agreement as compared to the Company’s prior credit facility.
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 33.4% for fiscal 2019 compared to 37.9% in fiscal 2018. The decrease in the effective income tax rate in fiscal 2019 reflects lower taxes as a result of the enactment in December 2017 of the Tax Act, as defined and described in further detail below under “Critical Accounting Policies – Income Taxes.”
Inflation
Inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company’s operations during either of fiscal 2019 or 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
In connection with the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company makes estimates and assumptions, including those that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Estimates and assumptions made may not prove to be correct, and actual results may differ from the estimates. The accounting policies that the Company has identified as critical to its business operations and to an understanding of the Company’s financial statements are set forth below. The critical accounting policies discussed below are not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of the Company’s accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP, with no need for management’s judgment in their application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result.
25
Revenue Recognition
Performance Obligations
Revenue primarily consists of revenues from the sale or leasing of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and steam and hot water boilers manufactured by others; the sale of related replacement parts and accessories; and the provision of installation and maintenance services. The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of equipment and parts to customers. Therefore, the majority of the Company’s contracts are short-term in nature and have a single performance obligation (to deliver products), and the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied when control of the product is transferred to the customer. Other contracts contain a combination of equipment sales and services expected to be performed in the near-term, which services are distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized on these contracts when control transfers to the Company’s customers via shipment of products or provision of services and the Company has the right to receive consideration for these products and services. Additionally, from time to time, the Company enters into longer-termed contracts which provide for the sale of the equipment by the Company and the provision by the Company of related installation and construction services. The installation on these types of contracts is usually completed within six to twelve months. From time to time, the Company also enters into maintenance and service contracts. These longer-term contracts, maintenance and service contracts have a single performance obligation where revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost measure of progress, which best depicts the continuous transfer of control of goods or services to the customer.
The Company measures revenue, including shipping and handling fees charged to customers, as the amount of consideration it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for its goods or services, net of any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. Costs associated with shipping and handling activities performed after the customer obtains control are accounted for as fulfillment costs.
Revenue from products transferred to customers at a point in time is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with the Company’s customer are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control upon shipment.
Revenues that are recognized over time include (i) longer-termed contracts that include equipment purchase with installation and construction services, (ii) maintenance contracts, and (iii) service contracts.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract assets and liabilities are presented in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets consist of unbilled amounts resulting from sales under longer-term contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. The Company typically receives progress payments on sales under longer-term contracts as work progresses, although for some contracts, the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment. Contract assets also include retainage. Retainage represents a portion of the contract amount that has been billed, but for which the contract allows the customer to retain a portion of the billed amount (generally, from 5% to 20% of contract billings) until final contract settlement. Retainage amounts are generally classified as current assets within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Retainage that has been billed, but is not due until completion of performance and acceptance by customers, is generally expected to be collected within one year. Contract liabilities consist of advanced payments, billings in excess of costs incurred and deferred revenue.
Goodwill
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit's carrying value is compared to its fair value. If the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. This step compares the current implied goodwill in the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the implied goodwill, an impairment is recorded for the excess. The Company performed its annual impairment test on April 1 and determined there was no impairment.
26
Customer Relationships, Tradenames and Other Intangible Assets
Customer relationships, tradenames, and other intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. These assets, except for tradenames, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated future periods to be benefited (5-10 years). The Company reviews the recoverability of intangible assets that are amortized based primarily upon an analysis of undiscounted cash flows from the intangible assets. In the event the expected future net cash flows become less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss would be recorded in the period the determination is made based on the fair value of the related assets.
Income Taxes
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
Significant judgment is required in developing the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against the deferred tax assets. Management evaluates the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts its valuation allowance when it believes that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act represents significant U.S. federal tax reform legislation that includes a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. Pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 118 (“SAB 118”), the Company’s measurement period for implementing the accounting changes required by the Tax Act closed on December 22, 2018. The Company completed the accounting for the effects of the Tax Act in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for additional information regarding income taxes.
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this Report for a description of Recently Issued Accounting Guidance.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market risk is defined as the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market valuations resulting from interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk and equity price risk. The Company’s primary market risk is interest rate risk.
27
The Company’s indebtedness subjects the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rates are subject to the influence of economic conditions generally, both domestic and foreign, and also to the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States and its agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve. The nature and timing of any changes in such policies or general economic conditions and the effect they may have on the Company are unpredictable. The Company’s indebtedness may also have other important impacts on the Company, including that the Company will be required to utilize cash flow to service the debt, indebtedness may make the Company more vulnerable to economic downturns, and the Company’s indebtedness subjects the Company to covenants, which may place restrictions on its operations and activities, including its ability to pay dividends and take certain other actions. Interest on borrowings under the Company’s 2018 Credit Agreement accrue at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $40.8 million of outstanding borrowings. Interest on such borrowings accrued at a weighted average rate of 3.91%. Based on the amounts outstanding at June 30, 2019, a hypothetical 1% increase in daily interest rates would increase the Company’s annual interest expense by approximately $408,000.
All of the Company’s export sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Accordingly, foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located. The Company has, at times in the past, paid certain suppliers in Euros. The Company had no foreign exchange contracts outstanding at June 30, 2019 or 2018.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained in bank accounts which bear interest at prevailing interest rates. At June 30, 2019, bank deposits exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. General
Nature of Business |
EVI Industries, Inc., formerly EnviroStar, Inc., indirectly through its subsidiaries (EVI Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries, collectively, the “Company”), is a value-added distributor, and provides advisory and technical services. Through the Company’s vast sales organization, it provides its customers planning, designing, and consulting services related to their commercial laundry operations. The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers installation, maintenance, and repair services. |
The Company’s customers include retail, commercial, industrial, institutional, and government customers. Purchases made by customers range from parts and accessories, to single or multiple units of equipment, to large complex systems, as well as installation, maintenance and repair services.
The Company reports its results of operations through a single operating and reportable segment.
Prior to the completion of the Company’s first acquisition, the WSD Acquisition (as defined below), pursuant to its “buy-and-build” growth strategy, the Company’s operations related to the activities described above consisted solely of the business and operations of Steiner-Atlantic Corp. (“Steiner-Atlantic”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The total consideration for these four transactions consisted of $3.5 million in cash (subject to certain working capital and other adjustments), net of $738,000 of cash acquired, and 141,000 shares of the
38
Company’s common stock. The financial condition, including assets and liabilities, and results of operations of the acquired businesses following the respective closing dates are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 2019. In connection with each acquisition, the Company, indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiary, also assumed certain of the liabilities related to the acquired business.
See Note 3 for additional information regarding the TRS Acquisition, the AA Acquisition, the SEI Acquisition, the PAC Acquisition and the four other acquisitions completed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
See also Note 20 for information regarding the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Commercial Laundry Products, Inc., Professional Laundry Systems of PA, Inc. and Professional Laundry Systems West, Inc., which was completed during August 2019.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation | The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EVI Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Revenue Recognition |
Adoption of New Revenue Standard |
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue requirements in ASU Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” ("Topic 605"), and requires the recognition of revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. To recognize revenue, the Company does the following:
· | identify the contract(s) with a customer; |
· | identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
· | determine the transaction price; |
· | allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and |
· | recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
The new standard also includes Subtopic 340-40, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers” (“Subtopic 340-40”), which sets forth requirements relating to the deferral of incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, including the period of amortization of such costs. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Collectively, the Company refers to Topic 606 and Subtopic 340-40 as the "New Revenue Standard."
The Company adopted the New Revenue Standard on July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. The New Revenue Standard did not have an impact on the amount and timing of the Company’s revenue recognition through July 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning on and after July 1, 2018 are presented under the New Revenue Standard, while prior period amounts were not adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods.

Revenue Recognition
Performance Obligations
Revenue primarily consists of revenues from the sale or leasing of commercial and industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment and steam and hot water boilers manufactured by others; the sale of related replacement parts and accessories; and the provision of installation and maintenance services. The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of equipment and parts to customers. Therefore, the majority of the Company’s contracts are short-term in nature and have a single performance obligation (to deliver products), and the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied when control of the product is transferred to the customer. Other contracts contain a combination of equipment sales and services expected to be performed in the near-term, which services are distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized on these contracts when control transfers to the Company’s customers via shipment of products or provision of services and the Company has the right to receive consideration for these products and services. Additionally, from time to time, the Company enters into longer-termed contracts which provide for the sale of the equipment by the Company and the provision by the Company of related installation and construction services. The installation on these types of contracts is usually completed within six to twelve months. From time to time, the Company also enters into maintenance contracts and ad hoc maintenance and installation service contracts. These longer-term contracts, and maintenance and service contracts have a single performance obligation where revenue is recognized over time using the cost-to-cost measure of progress, which best depicts the continuous transfer of control of goods or services to the customer.
The Company measures revenue, including shipping and handling fees charged to customers, as the amount of consideration it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for its goods or services, net of any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. Costs associated with shipping and handling activities performed after the customer obtains control are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are not promised services that have to be further evaluated under Topic 606.
Revenue from products transferred to customers at a point in time include commercial and vended laundry parts and equipment sales and accounted for approximately 83% of the Company’s revenue for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. Revenue from products transferred to customers at a point in time is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with the Company’s customer are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control upon shipment.
Revenues that are recognized over time include (i) longer-termed contracts that include equipment purchase with installation and construction services, (ii) maintenance contracts, and (iii) service contracts. Revenue from products and services that are recognized over time accounted for approximately 17% of the Company’s revenue for both the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Contract assets and liabilities are presented in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Contract assets consist of unbilled amounts resulting from sales under longer-term contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. The Company
40
typically receives progress payments on sales under longer-term contracts as work progresses, although for certain contracts, the Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment. Contract assets also include retainage. Retainage represents a portion of the contract amount that has been billed, but for which the contract allows the customer to retain a portion of the billed amount (generally, from 5% to 20% of contract billings) until final contract settlement. Retainage amounts are generally classified as current assets within the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Retainage that has been billed, but is not due until completion of performance and acceptance by customers, is generally expected to be collected within one year. Contract liabilities consist of advanced payments, billings in excess of costs incurred and deferred revenue.
Costs, estimated earnings and billings on longer-term contracts when the cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized as of June 30, 2019 and 2018 consisted of the following (in thousands):

Goodwill | Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit's carrying value is compared to its fair value. If the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. This step compares the current implied goodwill in the reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the implied goodwill, an impairment is recorded for the excess. The Company performed its annual impairment test on April 1, 2019 and determined there was no impairment. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under what management believes to be customary trade terms. The Company sells its products primarily to laundry plants, hotels, motels, cruise lines, hospitals, nursing homes, government institutions, vended laundry facilities and distributors and dry cleaning stores and chains. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and depending on the terms of credit, the amount of the credit granted and management’s history with a customer, the Company may require the customer to grant a security interest in the purchased equipment as collateral for the receivable. Management reviews accounts receivable on a regular basis to determine whether it is probable that any amounts are impaired. The Company includes any balances that are deemed probable to be impaired in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. If customary attempts to collect a receivable are not successful, the receivable is then written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $323,000 at June 30, 2019 and $233,000 at June 30, 2018. Actual write-offs may vary from the recorded allowance. |
41
Cash and Cash Equivalents | The Company considers all short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position of the depository institutions in which those deposits are held. |
Inventories | Inventories consist principally of equipment inventories and spare part inventories. Equipment inventories are valued at the lower of cost, determined on the specific identification method, or net realizable value. Spare part inventories are valued at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. Lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments are recorded in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statement of operations. |
Equipment, Improvements and Depreciation |
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated on straight-line methods over useful lives of five to seven years for furniture and equipment and the shorter of ten years or the remaining lease term (including renewal periods that are deemed reasonably assured) for leasehold improvements. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. |
Customer-Related Intangibles, Tradenames and Other Intangible Assets |
Finite-lived intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful life while indefinite-lived intangibles and goodwill are not amortized. Customer-related intangibles, non-compete, and other finite-lived intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated future periods to be benefited (5-10 years). Amortization of finite-lived intangibles is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company also evaluates indefinite-lived intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. The Company performed its annual impairment test on April 1, 2019 and determined there was no impairment. |
42
Asset Impairments | The Company periodically reviews the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell. The Company has concluded that there was no impairment of long-lived assets in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 (sometimes hereinafter referred to as “fiscal 2019”) or the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 (sometimes hereinafter referred to as “fiscal 2018”). |
Estimates | The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis. Estimates which may be particularly significant to the Company’s consolidated financial statements include those relating to the determination of impairment of assets (including goodwill and intangible assets), the useful life of property and equipment, net realizable value of inventory, the residual value of leased equipment, the recoverability of deferred income tax assets, allowances for doubtful accounts, intangible assets, estimates to complete on contracts where revenue is recognized over time, the carrying value of inventories and long-lived assets, the timing of revenue recognition, and sales returns and allowances. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the recognition of revenues and expenses and the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Assumptions and estimates may, however, prove to have been incorrect, and actual results may differ from these estimates. |
Earnings Per Share |
The Company computes earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Shares of the Company’s common stock subject to unvested restricted stock awards are considered participating securities because these awards contain a non-forfeitable right to dividends paid prior to forfeiture of the restricted stock, if any, irrespective of whether the awards ultimately vest. During fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018, the Company issued awards of 34,345 and 66,226 shares of restricted stock, respectively, under the EVI Industries, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (see Note 19). Such shares are deemed to constitute a second class of stock for accounting purposes. Basic and diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018 are computed as follows (in thousands, except per share data): |
43
For the years ended June 30, | ||||||||
2019 | 2018 | |||||||
Net income | $ | 3,743 | $ | 3,966 | ||||
Less: distributed and undistributed income allocated to non-vested restricted common stock | 260 | 295 | ||||||
Net income allocated to EVI Industries, Inc. shareholders | $ | 3,483 | $ | 3,671 | ||||
Weighted average shares outstanding used in basic earnings per share | 11,533 | 10,840 | ||||||
Dilutive common share equivalents | 489 | 437 | ||||||
Weighted average shares outstanding used in dilutive earnings per share | 12,022 | 11,277 | ||||||
Basic earnings per share | $ | 0.30 | $ | 0.34 | ||||
Diluted earnings per share | $ | 0.29 | $ | 0.33 |
At June 30, 2019, other than 813,610 unvested shares subject to restricted stock awards, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding. The remaining 69,744 shares of restricted common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their impact was anti-dilutive. At June 30, 2018, other than 437,000 shares subject to restricted stock awards, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding. The remaining 466,148 shares of restricted common stock were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their impact was anti-dilutive.
Supplier Concentration | The Company purchases laundry, dry cleaning equipment, boilers and other products from a number of manufacturers and suppliers. Purchases from three of these manufacturers accounted for a total of approximately 62% of the Company’s purchases for fiscal 2019 and purchases from four manufacturers accounted for approximately 76% of the Company’s purchases for fiscal 2018. |
Advertising Costs | The Company expenses the cost of advertising as of the first date an advertisement is run. The Company incurred approximately $355,000 and $164,000 of advertising costs for fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. |
Shipping and Handling | Shipping and handling costs associated with inbound freight are capitalized to inventories and relieved through cost of sales as inventories are sold. Shipping and handling costs associated with the delivery of products is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. |
44
Fair Value of Certain Current Assets and Current Liabilities |
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: |
· | Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
· | Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. This includes dealer and broker quotations, bid prices, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
· | Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. |
The Company has no assets or liabilities that are adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis. The Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during fiscal 2019 or 2018, except for certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination (as described in Note 3).
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at cost, which approximated estimated fair value, using Level 1 inputs, as they are maintained with various high-quality financial institutions and have original maturities of three months or less. The fair value of the Company’s indebtedness was estimated using Level 2 inputs based on quoted prices for those or similar debt instruments using applicable interest rates as of June 30, 2019 and approximate the carrying value of such debt because it accrues interest at variable rates that are repriced frequently.
Customer Deposits | Customer deposits represent advances paid by customers when placing orders for equipment with the Company. |
Net Investment in Sales Type Leases | The Company derives a portion of its revenue from leasing arrangements. Such arrangements provide for monthly payments covering the equipment sales, maintenance, and interest. These arrangements meet the criteria to be accounted for as sales type leases. Accordingly, the equipment sale is recognized upon delivery of the system and acceptance by the customer. Upon the recognition of revenue, an asset is established for the investment in sales type leases. Maintenance revenue and interest are recognized monthly over the lease term. |
Income Taxes |
The Company recognizes income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. |
45
Significant judgment is required in developing the Company’s provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against the deferred tax assets. Management evaluates the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts the valuation allowance when it believes that it is more likely than not that the asset will not be realized. There were no valuation allowance adjustments during fiscal 2019 or fiscal 2018.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately reflect actual outcomes. The Company does not believe that there are any unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2019 or 2018 related to tax positions taken on its income tax returns. The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "Tax Act"). The Tax Act represents significant U.S. federal tax reform legislation that includes a permanent reduction to the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate. Pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 118 (“SAB 118”), the Company’s measurement period for implementing the accounting changes required by the Tax Act closed on December 22, 2018. The Company completed the accounting for the effects of the Tax Act in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, which did not result in any changes to previously reported amounts, and there were no adjustments to the preliminary amounts previously recognized.
Recently Issued |
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“Topic 842”), which is designed to increase transparency and comparability by requiring the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and the disclosure of certain additional information about leasing arrangements. The new standard will require an entity to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (ii) a right-of-use (ROU) asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Topic 842 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (i.e., the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020 for the Company). In July 2018, updated guidance was issued which provides an additional transition method of adoption that allows entities to initially apply the standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company adopted Topic 842 utilizing this modified retrospective adoption method with an effective date of July 1, 2019. Consequently, the accompanying financial statements and footnotes have not been updated to comply with Topic 842. |
46
The Company has completed scoping reviews to identify a complete population of leases, and determined its population of leases is comprised largely of real estate leases. While the Company continues to assess all of the effects of adopting Topic 842, the Company currently believes the most significant effects will relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet for its real estate operating leases. The Company does not expect that the adoption of Topic 842 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations or cash flows.
Topic 842 provides a number of optional practical expedients and policy elections in transition. The Company expects to elect the ‘package of practical expedients’, which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements.
Topic 842 also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company expects to elect the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify (i.e., leases of 12 months or less). This means, for those leases that qualify, the Company, if it elects such exemptions, will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, including ROU assets or lease liabilities for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also currently expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all of the Company’s leases.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, which is designed to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The new guidance will eliminate the second step from the goodwill impairment test required in computing the implied fair value of goodwill. Instead, under the amendment, an entity will be required to perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and, if applicable, the entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the charge recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. If applicable, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when performing the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this guidance are effective for public business entities for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 (the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021 for the Company), with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that adopting this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract” (“ASU 2018-15”), to reduce diversity in practice in accounting for the costs of implementing cloud computing arrangements that are service contracts. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for internal-use software. Accounting for the service element of the cloud computing arrangement is not affected by the new guidance. Under ASU 2018-15, amortization expense and payments for, and asset balances related to, such capitalized implementation costs are to be presented within the same line items of the entity’s balance sheets and statements of operations and cash flows, as the related balances and service fee activity would be presented. ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effect of the adoption of ASU 2018-15 on its consolidated financial statements.
47
Management does not believe the impact of other issued accounting standards and updates, which are not yet effective, will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

3. Acquisitions |
TRS Acquisition |
On October 31, 2017, the Company, indirectly through Tri-State, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, completed the TRS Acquisition pursuant to which it purchased substantially all of the assets of TRS for a purchase price consisting of approximately $7,952,000 in cash and 338,115 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company used borrowings under its credit facility at the time to fund the cash consideration. Fees and expenses related to the TRS Acquisition, consisting primarily of legal and other professional fees, totaled approximately $137,000 and are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. The Company, indirectly through Tri-State, also assumed certain of the liabilities of TRS. The total purchase price was $17.3 million, which included cash acquired of $1.8 million.
The TRS Acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a purchase of TRS using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the aggregate consideration in the TRS Acquisition was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, in each case, based on their respective fair values as of the closing date, with the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired being allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The computation of the purchase price consideration and the allocation of the consideration to the net assets acquired are presented in the following tables (in thousands):
Purchase price consideration: | ||||
Cash consideration, net of cash acquired(a) | $ | 6,474 | ||
Stock consideration(b) | 9,027 | |||
Total purchase price consideration, net of cash acquired | $ | 15,501 | ||
(a)Includes $8,250,000 paid net of $1.8 million of cash acquired.
(b)Calculated as 338,115 shares of the Company’s common stock, multiplied by $26.70, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the closing date.
Allocation of purchase price consideration: | ||||
Accounts receivable | $ | 3,416 | ||
Inventory | 3,050 | |||
Other assets | 1,565 | |||
Equipment and improvements | 805 | |||
Intangible assets | 5,200 | |||
Accounts payable and accrued expenses | (2,220 | ) | ||
Customer deposits | (1,289 | ) | ||
Total identifiable net assets | 10,527 | |||
Goodwill | 4,974 | |||
Total | $ | 15,501 |
Intangible assets consist of $1.5 million allocated to the Tri-State trade name and $3.7 million allocated to customer-related intangible assets. The Tri-State trade name is indefinite-lived and therefore not subject to amortization. The Tri-State trade name is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate it may be impaired, by comparing its fair value to its carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. Customer-related intangible assets will be amortized over 10 years.
49
Goodwill is expected to be amortized and deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Goodwill is attributable primarily to the assembled workforce acquired, as well as benefits from the increased scale of the Company as a result of the TRS Acquisition.
AA Acquisition
On February 9, 2018, the Company, indirectly through AAdvantage, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, completed the AA Acquisition pursuant to which it purchased substantially all of the assets of AA for a total purchase price consisting of approximately $8.1 million in cash and 348,360 shares of the Company’s common stock. and the Company used borrowings under its credit facility at the time to fund the cash consideration. Fees and expenses related to the AA Acquisition, consisting primarily of legal and other professional fees, totaled approximately $160,000 and are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. The Company, indirectly through AAdvantage, also assumed certain of the liabilities of AA. The total purchase price was $20.4 million, which included cash acquired of $0.9 million.
The AA Acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a purchase of AA using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the aggregate consideration in the AA Acquisition was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, in each case, based on their respective fair values as of the closing date, with the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired being allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The computation of the purchase price consideration and the allocation of the consideration to the net assets acquired are presented in the following tables (in thousands):
Purchase price consideration: | ||||
Cash consideration, net of cash acquired(a) | $ | 7,175 | ||
Stock consideration(b) | 12,349 | |||
Total purchase price consideration, net of cash acquired | $ | 19,524 | ||
(a)Includes $8,119,000 paid at closing (inclusive of a preliminary working capital adjustment) net of $0.9 million of cash acquired.
(b)Calculated as 348,360 shares of the Company’s common stock, multiplied by $35.45, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the closing date.
Allocation of purchase price consideration: | ||||
Accounts receivable | $ | 2,850 | ||
Inventory | 2,816 | |||
Other assets | 2,966 | |||
Equipment and improvements | 771 | |||
Intangible assets | 4,300 | |||
Accounts payable and accrued expenses | (1,228 | ) | ||
Customer deposits | (285 | ) | ||
Total identifiable net assets | 12,190 | |||
Goodwill | 7,334 | |||
Total | $ | 19,524 |
Intangible assets consist of $1.8 million allocated to the AA trade name and $2.5 million allocated to customer-related intangible assets. The AA trade name is indefinite-lived and therefore not subject to amortization. The AA trade name is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate it may be impaired, by comparing its fair value to its carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. Customer-related intangible assets will be amortized over 10 years.
50
Goodwill is expected to be amortized and deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Goodwill is attributable primarily to the assembled workforce acquired, as well as benefits from the increased scale of the Company as a result of the AA Acquisition.
SEI Acquisition
On September 12, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition (the “SEI Acquisition”) of Scott Equipment Inc. (“SEI”), a Texas-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. In the SEI Acquisition, the Company, indirectly through its newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Scott Equipment Inc. (“Scott Equipment”), purchased substantially all of the assets of SEI for a purchase price consisting of approximately $6,500,000 in cash and 209,678 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its credit facility at the time. Fees and expenses related to the SEI Acquisition, consisting primarily of legal and other professional fees, totaled approximately $65,000 and are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The Company, indirectly through Scott Equipment, also assumed certain of the liabilities of SEI. The total purchase price for accounting purposes was $15.9 million, which included cash acquired of $2.8 million.
The SEI Acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a purchase of SEI using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the aggregate consideration in the SEI Acquisition was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, in each case, based on their respective fair values as of the closing date, with the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired being allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The computation of the purchase price consideration and the preliminary allocation of the consideration to the net assets acquired are presented in the following tables (in thousands):
Purchase price consideration: | ||||
Cash consideration, net of cash acquired(a) | $ | 3,709 | ||
Stock consideration(b) | 9,436 | |||
Total purchase price consideration, net of cash acquired | $ | 13,145 | ||
(a)Includes $6,500,000 paid net of $2.8 million of cash acquired.
(b)Calculated as 209,678 shares of the Company’s common stock, multiplied by $45.00, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the closing date.

51
The Company is continuing its valuation of the net assets acquired, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the asset purchase agreement. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation set forth above reflects preliminary fair value estimates based on preliminary work and analyses performed by management and is subject to change as additional information to assist in determining the fair value of the net assets acquired at the closing date is obtained during the post-closing measurement period of up to one year. The Company is also still assessing certain working capital items.
Intangible assets consist of $1.3 million allocated to the Scott Equipment trade name and $1.8 million allocated to customer-related intangible assets. The Scott Equipment trade name is indefinite-lived and therefore not subject to amortization. The Scott Equipment trade name is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate it may be impaired, by comparing its fair value to its carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. Customer-related intangible assets will be amortized over 10 years.
Goodwill is expected to be amortized and deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Goodwill is attributable primarily to the assembled workforce acquired, as well as benefits from the increased scale of the Company as a result of the SEI Acquisition.
PAC Acquisition
On February 5, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition (the “PAC Acquisition”) of PAC Industries Inc. (“PAC”), a Pennsylvania-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry, pursuant to a merger whereby PAC merged with and into PAC Industries Inc., a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“PAC Industries”). The purchase price in the PAC Acquisition consisted of approximately $6,400,000 in cash and 179,847 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration with borrowings under its current credit facility. Fees and expenses related to the PAC Acquisition, consisting primarily of legal and other professional fees, totaled approximately $182,000 and are classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The total purchase price for accounting purposes was $13.1 million, which included cash acquired of $1.1 million.
The PAC Acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a purchase of PAC using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the aggregate consideration in the PAC Acquisition was allocated to the assets and liabilities of PAC, in each case, based on their respective fair values as of the closing date, with the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired being allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The computation of the purchase price consideration and the preliminary allocation of the consideration to the net assets acquired are presented in the following tables (in thousands):

The Company is continuing its valuation of the net assets acquired, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the merger agreement. Accordingly, the purchase price allocation set forth above reflects preliminary fair value estimates based on preliminary work and analyses performed by management and is subject to change as additional information to assist in determining the fair value of the net assets acquired at the closing date is obtained during the post-closing measurement period of up to one year. The Company is also still assessing certain working capital items.
Intangible assets consist of $1.1 million allocated to the PAC Industries trade name and $1.9 million allocated to customer-related intangible assets. The PAC Industries trade name is indefinite-lived and therefore not subject to amortization. The PAC Industries trade name is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate it may be impaired, by comparing its fair value to its carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. Customer-related intangible assets will be amortized over 10 years.
Goodwill is expected to be amortized and deductible for tax purposes over 15 years. Goodwill is attributable primarily to the assembled workforce of PAC, as well as benefits from the increased scale of the Company as a result of the PAC Acquisition.
In connection with the PAC Acquisition, the Company transferred 114,634 shares to PAC’s ESOP. These shares were not permitted to be traded during the six-month period commencing on the closing date. Further, if a distribution event occurred during such six-month period, then each participant would have had the option to require the Company to purchase such participant’s shares at fair market value. Due to the Company’s obligation under this put option, which was in effect at June 30, 2019 but has subsequently expired, the distributed shares subject to the put option and the shares held by the ESOP are classified as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019. There were no distribution events during the six-month restriction period.
Other Acquisitions
As previously described, in addition to the SEI Acquisition and the PAC Acquisition, during the fiscal ended June 30, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of four other companies (Industrial Laundry Services, Inc. on September 4, 2018, Washington Automated, Inc. on November 6, 2018, Skyline Equipment, Inc. on November 14, 2018 and Worldwide Laundry, Inc. on November 16, 2018). The total consideration
53
for these four transactions consisted of $3.5 million in cash, net of $738,000 of cash acquired, and 141,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company funded the cash consideration for each acquisition with credit facility borrowings. Each acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a purchase of the acquired business using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, pursuant to which the consideration paid by the Company was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, in each case, based on their respective fair values as of the closing date, with the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired being allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The Company preliminarily allocated a total of $4.5 million to goodwill, $1.3 million to customer-related intangibles, and $690,000 to the respective trade names. The purchase price allocations are considered preliminary, as the Company is still assessing certain working capital and valuation-related items.

On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into a syndicated credit agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) for a five-year revolving credit facility in the maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. A portion of the revolving credit facility is available for swingline loans of up to a sublimit of $5 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit of up to a sublimit of $10 million.
Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the 2018 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. The 2018 Credit Agreement has a term of five years and matures on November 2, 2023.
The 2018 Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios. The 2018 Credit Agreement also contains other provisions which may restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, dispose of or acquire assets or businesses, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and capital expenditures, pay dividends, repurchase shares and enter into transactions with affiliates. At June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the 2018 Credit Agreement and $6.9 million was available to borrow under the revolving credit facility.
The obligations of the Company under the 2018 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.
In connection with the Western State Design Acquisition, on October 7, 2016, the Company entered into a $20.0 million credit agreement (the “Prior Credit Facility”), consisting of a $15.0 million revolving line of credit, subject to adjustment as described below (the “Revolving Line of Credit”), and a $5.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Company used a total of approximately $12.6 million of borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit and Term Loan to fund a portion of the cash consideration paid in connection with the Western State Design Acquisition, and to pay approximately $88,000 of fees, costs and expenses arising in connection with entering into the Credit Facility.
In connection with the TRS Acquisition, the Company’s Prior Credit Facility was amended on October 30, 2017. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company received an additional approximately $2.8 million of borrowings under the Term Loan and, in connection therewith, the maximum borrowing limit of the Prior Credit Facility was increased from $20.0 million to approximately $22.2 million and the minimum required monthly payments under the Term Loan (as described below) were increased from $60,000 to $100,000.

In connection with the AA Acquisition, the Company’s Prior Credit Facility was further amended on February 8, 2018. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company received an additional approximately $5.0 million of borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit and, in connection therewith, the maximum borrowing limit of the Revolving Line of Credit was increased from $15.0 million to approximately $20.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the Prior Credit Facility, however, the amount of permitted borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit is also subject to a cap determined using an asset-based formula, which may limit the amount available for borrowing. The Company used a total of approximately $8.1 million of borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit to fund the cash consideration paid in connection with the AA Acquisition.
At June 30, 2018, $3.7 million was outstanding under the Revolving Line of Credit and $6.4 million was outstanding under the Term Loan. In connection with its entry into the 2018 Credit Agreement on November 2, 2018, the Company repaid all outstanding amounts under, and terminated, the Prior Credit Facility.

15. Concentrations of Credit Risk | Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts and trade receivables. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at large financial institutions. At June 30, 2019, bank deposits exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to a large customer base. Also, based on the Company’s credit evaluation, trade receivables are often collateralized by the equipment sold. Sales to a federal government agency accounted for approximately 9% and 8% of the Company’s revenues for fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively. Additionally, no single contract for a federal government facility or other contract accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues for fiscal 2019 or 2018. As of June 30, 2019, the largest account receivable from a single third party entity relating to a single project was $4.0 million. There were no other accounts receivable due from any individual entity which accounted for greater than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable at June 30, 2019. |

The Company, through its manufacturers, provides parts warranties for products sold. These warranties are mainly the responsibility of the manufacturer. As such, warranty-related expenses are generally insignificant to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Further, in the ordinary course of business, certain of the Company’s contracts require the Company to provide performance and payment bonds related to projects in process. These bonds are intended to provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of the contract and that the Company will pay subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under the contract or pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company is required to reimburse the surety for any such expenses or outlays it incurs. As of June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, outstanding performance and payment bonds totaled $8.0 million and $8.3 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, there were no estimated costs to complete on projects secured by these bonds. As of June 30, 2018, estimated costs to complete projects secured by these bonds totaled $4.4 million.
The Company may from time to time become subject to litigation and other legal proceedings. Litigation and other legal proceedings may require the Company to incur significant expenses, including those relating to legal and other professional fees. In addition, litigation and other legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and adverse outcomes in litigation or other legal proceedings could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, cash flows, and operating results.

17. Retirement Plan |
The Company has participatory deferred compensation plans under which it matches half of employee contributions up to 6% of an eligible employee’s yearly compensation on a discretionary basis. Employees are eligible to participate in the plans after one year of service. The Company contributed approximately $453,000 and $228,000 to the plans during fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018, respectively. The plans are qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. |
18. Shareholders’ Equity |
On December 11, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a $.13 per share cash dividend on the Company’s common stock (an aggregate of approximately $1.6 million), which was paid on January 8, 2019 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 26, 2018. |
On December 12, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a $.12 per share cash dividend on the Company’s common stock (an aggregate of approximately $1.4 million), which was paid on January 9, 2018 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 26, 2017.
19. Equity Plan |
In November 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to awards granted under the Plan. The fair value of awards granted under the Plan is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. Share-based compensation expense, which totaled $1.7 million and $1.6 million in fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively, is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. During fiscal 2019, the Company granted a total of 34,345 shares of restricted stock, a portion of which is scheduled to vest ratably over four years and the remainder of which is scheduled to vest in 5 to 31 years. The total grant date fair value of such restricted stock was $1.2 million. During fiscal 2018, the Company granted a total of 66,226 shares of restricted stock, a portion of which is scheduled to vest ratably over four years and the remainder of which is scheduled to vest in 10 to 29 years. The total grant date fair value of such restricted stock was $2.5 million. In each case, the fair value of the restricted stock was determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable grant date. During fiscal 2019, 54,093 shares of restricted stock vested and 20,248 shares of common stock with an aggregate fair market value of $728,000 were withheld as payment in lieu of cash to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of such restricted stock. During fiscal 2018, 53,700 shares of restricted stock vested and 20,918 shares of common stock with an aggregate fair market value of $707,000 were withheld as payment in lieu of cash to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of such restricted stock. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $15.1 million of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to non-vested restricted stock, which is recognized over the weighted-average period of 17.3 years after the respective dates of grant. |
The following is a summary of non-vested restricted stock activity as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 2019:

There were no shares issued under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan during fiscal 2018.
20. Subsequent Events |
On August 1, 2019, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Professional Laundry Systems, LLC (“Professional Laundry Systems”), completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Commercial Laundry Products, Inc., Professional Laundry Systems of PA, Inc., and Professional Laundry Systems West, Inc. (collectively “PLS”), a New York-based distributor of commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provider of installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The consideration paid by the Company in connection with the acquisition consisted of cash and stock and was immaterial to the Company on a consolidated basis. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company, indirectly through Professional Laundry Systems, also assumed certain of the liabilities of PLS.

None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, management of the Company, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure 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 rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and improper conduct. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports or that the objectives of the control system will otherwise be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of improper conduct, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons or by the collusion of two or more people. Further, the design of any control system is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any such design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate “internal control over financial reporting” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). “Internal control over financial reporting” means a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the company’s management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the company’s financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, the projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
65
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019. This evaluation was conducted using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on its evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2019.
Management has excluded Scott Equipment, PAC Industries, Industrial Laundry Services, Washington Automated, Skyline Equipment and Worldwide Laundry from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019. Each of these businesses was acquired by the Company during fiscal 2019, and management has not conducted an assessment of the acquired businesses’ internal control over financial reporting. Total assets and revenues of Scott Equipment represent 11% and 8%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts of the Company as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 2019. Total assets and revenues of PAC Industries represent 10% and 4%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts of the Company as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 2019. Total assets and revenues of each of Industrial Laundry Services, Washington Automated, Skyline Equipment and Worldwide Laundry were not significant to the Company on a consolidated basis and, in the aggregate, represent 8% and 5%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts of the Company as of, and for the fiscal year ended, June 30, 2019.
BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”), the independent registered public accounting firm which audits the Company’s financial statements, has audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019 and has expressed an unqualified opinion thereon as stated in BDO’s report below.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Shareholders and Board of Directors
EVI Industries, Inc.
Miami, Florida
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited EVI Industries, Inc.’s, formerly EnviroStar, Inc. (the “Company’s”) internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO criteria”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2019, and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes, and our report dated September 13, 2019 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Item 9A, Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As indicated in the accompanying 9A, Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of Industrial Laundry Services, Inc. (“ILS”), Scott Equipment, Inc. (“Scott Equipment”), Skyline Equipment, Inc. (“Skyline”), Washington Automated, Inc. (“Washington”), Worldwide Laundry, Inc. (“Worldwide”), and PAC Industries, Inc. (“PAC”), which were acquired on September 4, 2018, September 12, 2018, November 14, 2018, November 6, 2018, November 16, 2018, and February 5, 2019, respectively, and which are included in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. ILS, Scott Equipment, Skyline, Washington, Worldwide, and PAC which aggregately constituted 29% of total assets as of June 30, 2019, and 17% and 2% of revenues and net income, respectively, for the year then ended. Management did not assess the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting of ILS, Scott Equipment, Skyline, Washington, Worldwide, and PAC because of the timing of their acquisitions. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Company also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of these subsidiaries.
67
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As of June 30, 2019, EVI Industries, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our") had one class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934: our common stock.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
The following summary of the terms of our capital stock is based upon our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, in each case, as amended, and applicable provisions of Delaware law. The summary is not complete, and is qualified by reference to our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, in each case, as amended, which are filed as exhibits to this Annual Report on Form 10-K and are incorporated by reference herein.
Authorized Capital Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 20,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.025 per share, and 200,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share.
Common Stock
Voting Rights
The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by our stockholders. As of the date of filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our common stock is the only capital stock entitled to vote on the election of directors or any other matter submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors.
Dividends and Other Distribution; Liquidation Rights
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any of series of preferred stock outstanding from time to time, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for that purpose.
In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of our preferred stock, if any, then outstanding.
Fully Paid and Nonassessable
The outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
No Preemptive, Conversion or Subscription Rights; No Redemption or Sinking Fund Provisions
Holders of our common stock have no preemptive or conversion rights, and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions relating to any shares of our common stock. In addition, holders of our common stock do not have any subscription or other similar rights to purchase shares of any class of our capital stock.
Additional Shares of Common Stock
We may issue additional authorized shares of our common stock as authorized by our Board of Directors from time to time, without stockholder approval, except as may be required by applicable stock exchange requirements.
Stock Exchange Listing
Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American under the ticker symbol “EVI.”
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Computershare Trust Company, N.A. is the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock.
Preferred Stock
As of the date of filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, no shares of preferred stock of any series or class is outstanding.
Our Board of Directors, without further stockholder authorization, is authorized to approve the issuance, from time to time, of shares of our preferred stock in one or more series, to establish the number of shares to be included in any such series, and to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including the following:
· | the title and stated value; |
· | the number of shares of the series; |
· | the liquidation preference per share; |
· | the dividend rate, period and payment date and method of calculation for dividends; |
· | whether dividends will be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends will accumulate; |
· | the procedures for any auction and remarketing, if any; |
· | the provisions for a sinking fund, if any; |
· | the provisions for redemption or repurchase, if applicable, and any restrictions on our ability to exercise those redemption and repurchase rights; |
· | any listing or trading of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system; |
· | voting rights, if any; |
· | preemptive rights, if any; |
· | restrictions on transfer, sale or other assignment, if any; |
· | whether interests in the preferred stock will be represented by depositary shares; |
· | the relative ranking and preferences of the preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; |
· | any limitations on the issuance of any class or series of preferred stock ranking senior to or on a parity with the series of preferred stock as to dividend rights and rights if we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs; and |
· | whether the preferred stock may be convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock or other securities, including, if applicable, whether conversion or exchange is mandatory, at the option of the holder, or at our option, and any provisions relating to the adjustment of the number of shares of our common stock or other securities that the holders of preferred stock would receive upon conversion or exchange of the preferred stock under certain circumstances. |
The full designations, powers, preferences and rights of any preferred stock we may issue, as well as the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, will be set forth in a Certificate of Designation relating to such preferred stock.
Under Delaware law, holders of preferred stock will have the right to vote separately as a class (or, in some cases, as a series) on an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation if the amendment would increase or decrease the par value of the shares of such class, alter or change the powers, preferences, or special rights of the shares of such class so as to affect them adversely change or, unless the Certificate of Designation of such class provides otherwise, increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of the class. This right is in addition to any voting rights that may be provided for in the applicable Certificate of Designation.
The issuance of preferred stock, including in a series with voting and/or conversion rights, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock.
Certain Anti-Takeover Effects
Board Authority to Approve Preferred Stock Issuance
As described above, our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, has the authority under our Certificate of Incorporation to approve the issuance, from time to time, of shares of our preferred stock in one or more series, to establish the number of shares to be included in any such series, and to fix the designations, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. Any such preferred stock could be issued quickly and easily, could adversely affect the rights of holders of our common stock and, while it may not be issued as a defensive measure against takeovers, could have terms which may delay or prevent a change of control of the Company or make removal of management more difficult.
Section 203 of the DGCL
In addition, as a Delaware corporation, we are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). Under Section 203 of the DGCL, we would generally be prohibited from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:
prior to such time, our Board of Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers, and by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or at or subsequent to such time, the business combination is approved by our Board of Directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
Under Section 203 of the DGCL, a “business combination” includes: any merger or consolidation involving the Delaware corporation, on the one hand, and the interested stockholder, on the other hand; any sale, transfer, pledge or other disposition of 10% or more of the assets of the Delaware corporation in a transaction involving the interested stockholder; subject to limited exceptions, any transaction that results in the issuance or transfer by the Delaware corporation of any of its stock to the interested stockholder; any transaction involving the Delaware corporation that has the effect of increasing the proportionate share of any class of stock the corporation beneficially owned by the interested stockholder; or the receipt by the interested stockholder of the benefit of any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial benefits provided by or through the Delaware corporation.
In general, Section 203 of the DGCL defines an “interested stockholder” as an entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the Delaware corporation and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
As permitted by the DGCL, our Bylaws provide for us to indemnify each of our current and former directors and officers who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than a derivative action) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity, in each case, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if he or she had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
In addition, as permitted by the DGCL, our Bylaws provide for us to indemnify each of our current and former directors and officers who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed derivative action or suit (i.e., an action or suit brought by or on behalf of the Company) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity, in each case, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner that he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests; provided that no indemnification shall be made if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to us; provided further, however, that indemnification may be made to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court deems proper. Our Bylaws also permit us to pay to our directors and officers expenses incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by us of an undertaking, by or on behalf of the director or officer, to repay the amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such director or officer was not entitled to indemnification.
The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by our Bylaws are not exclusive of any other rights to which the person seeking indemnification or expense advancement may be entitled.
As permitted by our Bylaws, we have also obtained insurance policies insuring our directors and officers against certain liabilities which they may incur in such capacities.
