Report on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of etailz, inc. (Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December  31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

(continued)

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of etailz, inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three the years in the period ended December 31, 2015 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of business operations – etailz, inc. (Company or etailz) was established in 2008 and is an online retailer and developer of consumer products. The Company is headquartered and operates a retail store in Spokane, Washington.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements – Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. Under the new guidance, which becomes effective January 1, 2020, for calendar-year nonpublic entities, lessees will be required to recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for most leases having lease terms of 12 months or more. However, lease expense will be recognized on the income statement in a manner similar to existing requirements.

 

ASU No. 2014-09 provides sweeping new, globally applicable converged guidance concerning recognition and measurement of revenue. In addition, significant additional disclosures are required about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new rules, under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which become effective for nonpublic entities in calendar year 2019, will replace virtually all existing revenue guidance, including most industry-specific guidance.

 

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these ASUs and has not yet implemented them.

 

Foreign currency – The Company buys and sells certain products internationally. In these cases, the transactions are generally denominated in the local currency. All income statement transactions are immediately remeasured into U.S. dollars. The remeasurement of the related foreign receivables, payables and cash into U.S. dollars creates remeasurement gains and losses that are included in earnings as a component of other expense. The Company recognized net remeasurement losses of $116,931, $66,588, and $24,995 during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.

 

Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to previously issued financial statements to conform with the presentation of these financial statements. Total equity and net income are unchanged due to these reclassifications.

 

Comprehensive income – Net income was equal to comprehensive income for each of the years presented.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Accounts receivable – Accounts receivable are primarily comprised of merchant receivables, which are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. Receivables are typically paid within 10 days of the underlying transactions. Receivables not paid within the contractually agreed upon timeframe are considered delinquent. Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluation, specific circumstances of the customer, and management’s discretion. The Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2015 or 2014, as management expects all accounts to be collected. Actual write offs were insignificant for all periods presented.

 

Inventories – Inventories are comprised of consumer products to be sold and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, calculated on average cost, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. The Company provides for obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments by recording a reserve. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the reserve for obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments was $900,000 and $600,000, respectively.

 

The Company is occasionally required to prepay for certain inventories. In these situations, the prepayment is recorded as a deposit until the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to etailz. Inventory in-transit is recorded if this transfer occurs at the time of shipment.

 

Property and equipment – Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. The useful lives for depreciation purposes range from three to five years for computers and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful life. Depreciation and amortization expense was $63,567, $34,612, and $12,110 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, and is included with selling, general, and administrative expenses.

 

Valuation of long-lived assets – The Company, using its best estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections, reviews assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated the carrying amount of its assets might not be recoverable. Impaired assets are reported at the lower of cost or fair value. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, no long-lived assets were impaired.

 

Software and websites, net – The Company capitalizes third party and internal costs incurred to develop websites and internal-use computer software. Internal and external costs incurred in connection with development of upgrades or enhancements that result in additional functionality are also capitalized. These capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years. Purchased software is capitalized and amortized over its estimated useful life.

All ineligible costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Amortization expense of capitalized internally developed software and websites was $110,440, $65,005, and $21,920 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.

Deferred rent – Certain of the Company’s operating leases contain lease incentives and predetermined fixed escalations of the base rental rate during the original term of the lease. For these leases, the Company recognizes the related rental expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease and records the difference between the amounts charged to operations and amounts paid as deferred rent. The balance of deferred rent was $71,883 and $32,235 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and is presented as an other long-term liability on the balance sheet.

 

Stock warrants – The Company accounts for stock warrants under the provisions of the fair value based measurement method, which requires the recognition of compensation expense based on the fair value of warrants on the grant date. Compensation expense is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the total requisite service period of each award.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Revenue recognition – Revenue is recognized from product sales, which includes shipping revenue, net of estimated returns, upon shipment of products to customers. The Company records its reserve for estimated future returns based on historical experience and current trends.

 

The majority of product sales are shipped from the Amazon.com’s various fulfillment centers. Certain vendors are also used to ship products directly to customers on the Company’s behalf. The Company acts as principal in these transactions, as orders are initiated directly through the e-commerce businesses that are operated by the Company or through Amazon.com; title to the goods are taken by the Company at the shipping point and have the economic risk related to collection, customer care, and returns. Revenue is then recognized when title and significant risks of ownership passes to the customer. For drop-shipping services, revenue is recorded at gross as a principal and recorded as revenues from product sales.

 

For retail sales, revenue is recorded at the point of sale.

 

Advertising – The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $223,492, $131,036, and $142,031 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.

 

Shipping and handling – The Company includes shipping and handling costs and fulfillment fees from third parties in cost of sales.

 

Estimates – The preparation of 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 financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations – At various times during the year, the Company had cash balances maintained with one financial institution in excess of federally insured limits.

 

The Company sells the majority of its product through Amazon.com’s website. The Company may be susceptible to any negative changes to Amazon.com’s website or online marketplace.

 

During 2015, 2014, and 2013, substantially all the Company’s revenue and accounts receivable was attributable to sales through Amazon.com and its affiliates.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Income taxes – Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities at the applicable enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by assessing its valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization include the Company’s forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income in applicable tax jurisdictions could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could result in an increase in the Company’s effective tax rate on future earnings.

 

The Company adheres to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740-10, Income Taxes, relating to accounting for uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not the tax positions will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

 

Sales taxes – The Company remits sales taxes to various taxing jurisdictions as a result of revenue earned from the sale of products to its customers. Specific sales tax rates applicable to the Company’s products vary by taxing jurisdiction. The Company records sales tax as a current liability at the time the revenue is earned. The liability is relieved upon the remittance of the sales tax owed to the various taxing jurisdictions. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the state from revenue and expenses.

 

Subsequent events – Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the date of the balance sheet but before the financial statements are issued. The Company recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the financial statements. The Company’s financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the date of the balance sheet and before the financial statements are issued.

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through December 28, 2016, which is the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

Note 2 – Line of Credit

 

On November 25, 2014, the Company entered into a line of credit agreement with Chase Bank, N.A. (Bank), expiring December 31, 2016. Accordingly, the outstanding balance at December 31, 2014, is presented as long-term, while the outstanding balance at December 31, 2015, is presented as short-term. The line of credit is subject to a borrowing base of 50% of inventory and 80% of accounts receivable. Maximum borrowings are $5,000,000, adjusting to accommodate the Company’s increased activity during the holiday months, so that $9,000,000 in borrowings are available to the Company from October 1 to February 1. The Company may select the interest rate for each advance at the LIBOR plus 1.5%, or the prime rate less 1.25% (2.25% at December 31, 2015).

 

The line of credit agreement between the Bank and the Company contain certain financial covenants that are required to be met by the Company. Subsequent to the balance sheet date, the line of credit was paid off. See Note 9.

 

Note 3 – Operating Leases

 

The Company has operating leases for its office, retail, and warehouse spaces with various maturities through May 2019.

 

Rent expense under these leases was $334,460, $176,551, and $110,851 for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.

 

Future minimum lease commitments are as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 4 – Income Taxes (continued)

 

The Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, there is no accrued interest or penalties recorded in the financial statements.

 

Note 5 – Stockholders’ Equity

 

Capital structure – The capital structure of the Company consists of the following:

 

Common stock – The Company has authorized 50,000,000 shares; 991,698 shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2015 and 2014, with no par value.

 

Preferred stock – The Company has authorized 50,000,000 shares; no shares issued and outstanding at December 31, 2015 and 2014, with no par value.

 

Holders of preferred stock shall have preferential rights and privileges to holders of common stock with regard to dividends, redemptions, liquidations, and other as provided by the Board of Directors in establishing particular series of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, no particular series of preferred stock has been established by the Board of Directors.

 

Stock warrants – The Company’s executive management, from time to time, grant certain parties warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at fixed prices with the approval of the Board of Directors. The warrants vest immediately and expire 5 to 10 years from the date of issuance.

 

Put options – During 2013, and in connection with the stock sales, the Company executed two put option agreements with 10-year terms, which allow certain stockholders the right to require the Company to repurchase 98,698 shares of common stock upon the occurrence of a triggering event. The triggering events are: (1) the adoption by the Company of a plan of liquidation or dissolution; or (2) a sale, merger, consolidation, or other transaction or series of transactions within a period of twelve (12) consecutive months resulting in a change in control of the Company. The put option agreement defines a change in control as an event where the stockholders of the Company immediately before the transaction do not retain substantially the same proportions of their share ownership of the Company’s voting stock immediately after the transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company.

 

Subsequent to a triggering event, the Company will be required to repurchase the shares from the stockholders at $12.92 per share, upon the proper and timely exercise of the put options. Although a triggering event occurred subsequent to year-end, (see Note 9), the put option was not exercised because it was more beneficial for the holder to sell its shares of common stock. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded related to this settlement.

The weighted-average grant date fair value of warrants issued in 2014 was $6.31, and total shared-based compensation expense was $366,296.

 

In determining the fair value of stock warrants granted during the year ended December 31, 2014, the following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model:

 

Estimated per share value of common stock  $12.92
Risk-free interest rate   4.50%
Contractual term   5 years
Dividend rate   None
Volatility   50%
Forfeiture rate   0%

 

Summaries of the assumptions shown above are as follows:

 

Estimated per-share value of common stock – The Company based its estimated per-share value of common stock on a third party sale in 2014.

 

Risk-free interest rate – The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available in U.S. Treasury securities at maturity with an equivalent term.

 

Contractual term – As stated in the executed warrant agreements.

 

Dividend rate – The Company has not declared or paid dividends in the past and does not currently expect to do so in the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 6 – Share-Based Compensation (continued)

 

Volatility – There is minimal trading activity in etailz stock and as such, volatility represents management’s best estimate of future volatility based on reviewing the average volatility of stock prices for similar publicly traded companies.

 

Forfeiture rate – As all warrants were immediately vested, no forfeiture rate was applied.

 

Note 7 – Employee Benefit Plan

 

Effective January 1, 2015, the Company implemented a defined contribution 401(k) plan (Plan) covering substantially all employees. Employees are eligible after one year, with a minimum of 1,000 hours worked, and may elect to defer compensation subject to the Internal Revenue Service allowable contribution limit. The Company matches up to 6% of employee compensation, as defined by the Plan document, which was $111,633 for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, we use a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and nonobservable inputs:

 

Level 1Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
  
Level 2Significant other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly, including:

 

 ·Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
 ·Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in non-active markets;
 ·Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
·Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.

 

Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

 

18

 

etailz, inc.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.

 

Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, line of credit, accounts and credit cards payable, sales tax payable, payroll liabilities, and accrued expenses and liabilities. The fair values of these items approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of the instruments. If these instruments were measured at fair value in the financial statements, they would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

Note 9 – Subsequent events

 

Effective October 17, 2016, Trans World Entertainment Corporation, a public entity traded on the NASDAQ acquired all of the outstanding shares of etailz for approximately $75,000,000, which includes contingent consideration.

Exhibit 99.3

 

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

On October 17, 2016, Trans World Entertainment Corporation (the “Company”) acquired (the “Acquisition”) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Etailz Inc. (“etailz”) pursuant to a share purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, etailz, the equity holders of etailz (each a “seller” and, collectively, the “sellers”) and Thomas C. Simpson, as the sellers’ representative. Etailz, a leading digital marketplace retailer operating both domestically and internationally, uses a data driven approach to digital marketplace retailing utilizing proprietary software and ecommerce insight coupled with a direct customer relationship engagement to identify new distributors and wholesalers, isolate emerging product trends, and optimize price positioning and inventory purchase decisions.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at October 29, 2016 is presented in this exhibit consistent with the Company’s most recently filed Form 10-Q dated December 8, 2016, which reflects the preliminary acquisition of etailz consummated on October 17, 2016.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended January 30, 2016 and six months ended July 30, 2016 combine the historical results of operations of the Company and etailz, giving effect to the Acquisition as if it occurred on February 1, 2015. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended January 30, 2016, utilizes the consolidated historical results of the Company for the year ended January 30, 2016 and the historical results of etailz for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended July 30, 2016, utilizes the consolidated historical results of the Company for the six months ended July 30, 2016 and the historical results of etailz for the six-months ended June 30, 2016.

 

The pro forma adjustments do not reflect any operating efficiencies or inefficiencies which may result from the Acquisition. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of results that would have been achieved had the business been combined during the periods presented and should not be taken as representative of future consolidated operating results. In addition, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates and assumptions are preliminary and have been made solely for purposes of developing this pro forma information. Actual results could differ, perhaps materially, from these estimates and assumptions.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to SEC Regulation S-X Article 11, and presents the pro forma results of operations of the combined companies based upon the historical information after giving effect to the acquisition and adjustments described in these notes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2016 and the six months ended July 30, 2016 are presented as if the acquisition had occurred on February 1, 2015.

 

The historical results of the Company have been derived from its financial statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 30, 2016 and the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto contained in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended July 30, 2016. The historical results of etailz for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been derived from its audited financial statements which have been included in Exhibit 99.2 to the Form 8-K/A and its interim financial statements as of June 30, 2016 and 2015 which have been included in Exhibit 99.4 to the Form 8-K/A.

 

Overview of the Accounting for the Acquisition

The business combination is reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as being accounted for under the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with Trans World being treated as the accounting acquirer. ASC 805 requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their acquisition date fair values, with any excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired to be recorded as goodwill. In addition, ASC 805 establishes that the common stock issued to affect the business combination be measured at the closing date of the business combination at the then current market price.

 

On October 17, 2016, the Company completed the purchase of all of the issued and outstanding shares of etailz, Inc. (“etailz”), an innovative and leading digital marketplace retail expert. The Company paid $32.3 million in cash, issued 5.7 million shares of TWMC stock at closing to the shareholders of etailz as consideration for their shares and paid $4.3 million in cash advances to settle obligations of the selling shareholders. Based on the fair value of $3.56 per share on the acquisition date, the shares had a value of $20.4 million. An earn-out of up to a maximum of $14.6 million will be payable in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2019 subject to the achievement by etailz of $6 million in operating income in fiscal 2017 and $7.5 million in fiscal 2018 as outlined in the share purchase agreement.  In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed the liability for etailz’s employee retention bonus plan, of which $1.9 million was due and payable at closing and funded as part of the cash advances and the remaining $2.3 million will be earned over a two year service period. The acquisition and related costs were funded primarily from the Company’s cash on hand and short term borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. As of October 29, 2016, the preliminary purchase accounting has not yet been finalized due primarily to the proximity of the closing date of the acquisition to the filing date of this quarterly report and the pending receipt of the final valuation for certain assets, including identifiable intangible assets.

 

The acquisition date fair value of the consideration for the above acquisition consisted of the following as of October 17, 2016 (in thousands):

 

Cash consideration  $36,600 
Fair value of stock consideration   20,415 
Fair value of contingent consideration   10,381 
Fair value of indemnification consideration held in escrow   1,500 
Fair value of purchase consideration  $68,896 

 

The excess of purchase consideration paid over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized is not deductible for income tax purposes.

 

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the aggregate purchase price to the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of business operations – etailz, inc. (Company or etailz) was established in 2008 and is an online retailer and developer of consumer products. The Company is headquartered and operates a retail store in Spokane, Washington.

 

Basis of presentation – The balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, the statements of income for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, and the statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented have been made.

 

Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are not indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements – Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. Under the new guidance, which becomes effective January 1, 2020, for calendar-year nonpublic entities, lessees will be required to recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for most leases having lease terms of 12 months or more. However, lease expense will be recognized on the income statement in a manner similar to existing requirements.

 

ASU No. 2014-09 provides sweeping new, globally applicable converged guidance concerning recognition and measurement of revenue. In addition, significant additional disclosures are required about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new rules, under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which become effective for nonpublic entities in calendar year 2019, will replace virtually all existing revenue guidance, including most industry-specific guidance.

 

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these ASUs and has not yet implemented them.

 

Foreign currency – The Company buys and sells certain products internationally. In these cases, the transactions are generally denominated in the local currency. All income statement transactions are immediately remeasured into U.S. dollars. The remeasurement of the related foreign receivables, payables and cash into U.S. dollars creates remeasurement gains and losses that are included in earnings as a component of other expense. The Company recognized net remeasurement losses (gains) of $6,256 and $12,913 during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively and ($9,334) and $43,842 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications have been made to previously issued financial statements to conform with the presentation of these financial statements. Total equity and net income are unchanged due to these reclassifications.

 

Comprehensive income – Net income was equal to comprehensive income for each of the periods presented.

 

Accounts receivable – Accounts receivable are primarily comprised of merchant receivables, which are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. Receivables are typically paid within 10 days of the underlying transactions. Receivables not paid within the contractually agreed upon timeframe are considered delinquent. Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluation, specific circumstances of the customer, and management’s discretion. The Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015, as management expects all accounts to be collected. Actual write offs were insignificant for all periods presented.

 

Inventories – Inventories are comprised of consumer products to be sold and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, calculated on average cost, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. The Company provides for obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments by recording a reserve. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the reserve for obsolescence and net realizable value adjustments was $470,000 and $900,000, respectively.

 

The Company is occasionally required to prepay for certain inventories. In these situations, the prepayment is recorded as a deposit until the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to etailz. Inventory in-transit is recorded if this transfer occurs at the time of shipment.

 

Property and equipment – Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful lives. The useful lives for depreciation purposes range from three to five years for computers and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful life. Depreciation and amortization expense was $17,970 and $17,916 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $47,017 and $33,028 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and is included with selling, general, and administrative expenses.

 

Valuation of long-lived assets – The Company, using its best estimates based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections, reviews assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated the carrying amount of its assets might not be recoverable. Impaired assets are reported at the lower of cost or fair value. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, no long-lived assets were impaired.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Software and websites, net – The Company capitalizes third party and internal costs incurred to develop websites and internal-use computer software. Internal and external costs incurred in connection with development of upgrades or enhancements that result in additional functionality are also capitalized. These capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years. Purchased software is capitalized and amortized over its estimated useful life.

 

The following table summarizes software and websites at:

 

   June 30,  December 31,
   2016  2015
           
Purchased software  $51,851   $51,851 
Internally developed software and websites   724,688    638,795 
Software in development   70,385    38,048 
Less accumulated amortization   (325,900)   (212,489)
           
   $521,024   $516,205 

 

The Company determined internal costs of $69,944 and $81,779 during the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $118,230 and $138,497 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, to be in the application development stage and have, therefore, been capitalized as internally developed software and websites. All ineligible costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Amortization expense of capitalized internally developed software and websites was $55,237 and $23,867 during the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $105,050 and $40,773 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amortization expense of purchased software and third party development costs was $4,180 and $4,063 during the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $8,361 and $7,350 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Deferred rent – Certain of the Company’s operating leases contain lease incentives and predetermined fixed escalations of the base rental rate during the original term of the lease. For these leases, the Company recognizes the related rental expense on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease and records the difference between the amounts charged to operations and amounts paid as deferred rent. The balance of deferred rent is presented as a long-term liability on the balance sheet.

 

Stock warrants – The Company accounts for stock warrants under the provisions of the fair value based measurement method, which requires the recognition of compensation expense based on the fair value of warrants on the grant date. Compensation expense is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the total requisite service period of each award.

Revenue recognition – Revenue is recognized from product sales, which includes shipping revenue, net of estimated returns, upon shipment of products to customers. The Company records its reserve for estimated future returns based on historical experience and current trends.

 

The majority of product sales are shipped from the Amazon.com’s various fulfillment centers. Certain vendors are also used to ship products directly to customers on the Company’s behalf. The Company acts as principal in these transactions, as orders are initiated directly through the e-commerce businesses that are operated by the Company or through Amazon.com; title to the goods are taken by the Company at the shipping point and have the economic risk related to collection, customer care, and returns. Revenue is then recognized when title and significant risks of ownership passes to the customer. For drop-shipping services, revenue is recorded at gross as a principal and recorded as revenues from product sales.

 

For retail sales, revenue is recorded at the point of sale.

 

Advertising – The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were $65,954 and $30,990 during the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $109,631 and $58,411 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Shipping and handling – The Company includes shipping and handling costs and fulfillment fees from third parties in cost of sales.

 

Estimates – The preparation of 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 financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations – At various times during the year, the Company had cash balances maintained with one financial institution in excess of federally insured limits.

 

The Company sells the majority of its product through Amazon.com’s website. The Company may be susceptible to any negative changes to Amazon.com’s website or online marketplace.

 

Substantially all the Company’s revenue and accounts receivable is attributable to sales through Amazon.com and its affiliates.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Income taxes – Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities at the applicable enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets by assessing its valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization include the Company’s forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income in applicable tax jurisdictions could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could result in an increase in the Company’s effective tax rate on future earnings.

 

The Company adheres to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740-10, Income Taxes, relating to accounting for uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes the tax benefit from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not the tax positions will be sustained on examination by the tax authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

 

Sales taxes – The Company remits sales taxes to various taxing jurisdictions as a result of revenue earned from the sale of products to its customers. Specific sales tax rates applicable to the Company’s products vary by taxing jurisdiction. The Company records sales tax as a current liability at the time the revenue is earned. The liability is relieved upon the remittance of the sales tax owed to the various taxing jurisdictions. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the state from revenue and expenses.

 

Subsequent events – Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the date of the balance sheet but before the financial statements are issued. The Company recognizes in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the financial statements. The Company’s financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the date of the balance sheet and before the financial statements are issued.

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through December 28, 2016, which is the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

Note 2 – Line of Credit

 

On November 25, 2014, the Company entered into a line of credit agreement with Chase Bank, N.A. (Bank), expiring December 31, 2016. The line of credit is subject to a borrowing base of 50% of inventory and 80% of accounts receivable. Maximum borrowings are $5,000,000, adjusting to accommodate the Company’s increased activity during the holiday months, so that $9,000,000 in borrowings are available to the Company from October 1 to February 1. The Company may select the interest rate for each advance at the LIBOR plus 1.5%, or the prime rate less 1.25% (2.25% at June 30, 2016).

 

The line of credit agreement between the Bank and the Company contain certain financial covenants that are required to be met by the Company. Subsequent to the balance sheet date, the line of credit was paid off. See Note 9.

 

Note 3 – Operating Leases

 

The Company has operating leases for its office, retail, and warehouse spaces with various maturities through May 2019. Rent expense under these leases $112,059 and $82,862 during the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $217,584 and $156,321 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Future minimum lease commitments are as follows:

 

Remainder of 2016  $295,226 
2017   764,500 
2018   453,992 
2019   308,330 
      
   $1,822,048

Note 4 – Income Taxes

 

At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s net deferred tax asset was $87,737 and $149,927, respectively. The components of the gross deferred tax assets and liabilities were primarily attributable to the reserve for returns and allowance, stock warrants and the book-tax basis differential in fixed assets. Management considered the need for a valuation allowance for each period and determined that no such allowance was required.

 

Income tax expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, is based on the Company’s estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full year. The difference between the anticipated income tax expense at the statutory federal rate of 34% and actual income tax expense for the periods presented was primarily attributable to net effect of state income taxes, certain permanent differences and the effect of federal research and development credits.

 

The Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there is no accrued interest or penalties recorded in the financial statements.

 

The Company’s total deferred taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and the amounts used for federal income tax purposes.

 

Note 5 – Stockholders’ Equity

 

Capital structure – The capital structure of the Company consists of the following:

 

Common stock – The Company has authorized 50,000,000 shares; 991,698 shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, with no par value.

 

Preferred stock – The Company has authorized 50,000,000 shares; no shares issued or outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, with no par value.

 

Holders of preferred stock shall have preferential rights and privileges to holders of common stock with regard to dividends, redemptions, liquidations, and other as provided by the Board of Directors in establishing particular series of preferred stock. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, no particular series of preferred stock has been established by the Board of Directors.

 

Stock warrants – The Company’s executive management, from time to time, grant certain parties warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at fixed prices with the approval of the Board of Directors. The warrants vest immediately and expire 5 to 10 years from the date of issuance.

Note 5 – Stockholders’ Equity (continued)

 

Put options – During 2013, and in connection with the stock sales, the Company executed two put option agreements with 10-year terms, which allow certain stockholders the right to require the Company to repurchase 98,698 shares of common stock upon the occurrence of a triggering event. The triggering events are: (1) the adoption by the Company of a plan of liquidation or dissolution; or (2) a sale, merger, consolidation, or other transaction or series of transactions within a period of twelve (12) consecutive months resulting in a change in control of the Company. The put option agreement defines a change in control as an event where the stockholders of the Company immediately before the transaction do not retain substantially the same proportions of their share ownership of the Company’s voting stock immediately after the transaction, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company.

 

Subsequent to a triggering event, the Company will be required to repurchase the shares from the stockholders at $12.92 per share, upon the proper and timely exercise of the put options. Although a triggering event occurred subsequent to year-end, (see Note 9), the put option was not exercised because it was more beneficial for the holder to sell its shares of common stock. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded related to this settlement.

Note 7 – Employee Benefit Plan

 

Effective January 1, 2015, the Company implemented a defined contribution 401(k) plan (Plan) covering substantially all employees. Employees are eligible after one year, with a minimum of 1,000 hours worked, and may elect to defer compensation subject to the Internal Revenue Service allowable contribution limit. The Company matches up to 6% of employee compensation, as defined by the Plan document, which totaled $49,207 and $30,161 during the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $87,867 and $57,192 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, we use a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs:

 

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
     
Level 2 Significant other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly, including:
     
  · Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
  · Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in non-active markets;
  · Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
  · Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.
     
Level 3 Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

 

The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.

Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, line of credit, accounts and credit cards payable, sales tax payable, payroll liabilities and accrued expenses and liabilities. The fair values of these items approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature of the instruments. If these instruments were measured at fair value in the financial statements, they would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

 

Note 9 – Subsequent events

 

Effective October 17, 2016, Trans World Entertainment Corporation, a public entity traded on the NASDAQ acquired all of the outstanding shares of etailz for approximately $75,000,000, which includes contingent consideration.
