CAUTIONARY NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of U.S. federal securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, included in this Report that address activities, events, or developments with respect to our financial condition, results of operations, or economic performance that we expect, believe, or anticipate will or may occur in the future, or that address plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. You can typically identify forward-looking statements by the use of words, such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “assume,” “project,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “potential,” “plan,” and other similar words. These statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements and our performance inherently involve risk and uncertainty that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that would cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to:

We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this Report speak as of the filing date of this Report. Although we may from time to time voluntarily update our prior forward-looking statements, we undertake no obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this Report.

SCOTT’S LIQUID GOLD-INC. & SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(in thousands, except per share data)

 

Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. (a Colorado corporation) was incorporated on February 15, 1954. Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) develop, manufacture, market and sell quality household and skin and hair care products. We are also a distributor in the United States of skin and hair care products manufactured by two other companies. Our business is comprised of two segments, household products and skin and hair care products.

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this Report have been prepared by the Company. In our opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2018 and results of operations and cash flows for all periods have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in our financial statements of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the realization of deferred tax assets, reserves for slow moving and obsolete inventory, customer returns and allowances, intangible asset useful lives and amortization method, and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from our estimates.

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents.

(f)Inventories Valuation and Reserves

Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. We estimate an inventory reserve for slow moving and obsolete products and raw materials based upon, among other things, an assessment of historical and anticipated sales of our products. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted.

Inventories were comprised of the following at:

 

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to 20 years. Production equipment and production support equipment are estimated to have useful lives of 15 to 20 years and three to 10 years, respectively. Office furniture and office machines are estimated to have useful lives of 10 to 20 years and three to five years, respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Improvements that extend the useful lives of the asset or provide improved efficiency are capitalized.

Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade names, formulas and batching processes and a non-compete agreement. The fair value of the intangible assets is amortized over their estimated useful lives and range from a period of five to 15 years and are reviewed for impairment when changes in market circumstances occur and written down to fair value if impaired.

Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to annual impairment tests at the reporting unit level, which include the review of factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of its reporting units were below carrying value. In certain circumstances these assets are written down to fair value if impaired.

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We maintain our cash balances in the form of bank demand deposits with financial institutions that we believe are creditworthy. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we have maintained balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. We have no significant financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of accounting loss, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign currency hedging arrangements.

The recorded amounts for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and current maturities of long-term debt approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The recorded amount of long-term debt approximates fair value and is estimated primarily based on current market rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. At September 30, 2018, we had no outstanding balances on our long-term debt or on our line-of-credit. At December 31, 2017, we had long-term debt of $1,200 and no outstanding balance on our line-of-credit.

Income taxes reflect the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently payable plus deferred income taxes related to certain income and expenses recognized in different periods for financial and income tax reporting purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future income tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible. 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.

Taxes are reported based on tax positions that meet a more-likely-than-not standard and that are measured at the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Differences between financial and tax reporting which do not meet this threshold are required to be recorded as unrecognized tax benefits or expense. We classify penalty and interest expense related to income tax liabilities as an income tax expense. There are no significant interest and penalties recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income or accrued on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was 24.5% and 35.6% respectively, which differs from the statutory income tax rate due to permanent book to tax differences. The decrease in the effective tax rate is a result of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) on December 22, 2017 which lowered the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.

Our revenue recognition policy is significant because the amount and timing of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. Certain criteria are required to be met in order to recognize revenue. If these criteria are not met, then the associated revenue is deferred until it is met. When consideration is received in advance of the delivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Our revenue contracts are identified when purchase orders are received and accepted from customers and represent a single performance obligation to sell our products to a customer.

Net sales reflect the transaction prices for contracts, which include products shipped at selling list prices reduced by variable consideration. Variable consideration includes estimates for expected customer allowances, promotional programs for consumers, and sales returns.

Variable consideration is primarily comprised of customer allowances. Customer allowances primarily include reserves for trade promotions to support price features, displays, slotting fees, and other merchandising of our products to our customers. Promotional programs for consumers primarily include coupons, rebates, and certain other promotional programs, and do not represent a significant portion of variable consideration. The costs of customer allowances and promotional programs for consumers are estimated using either the expected value or most likely amount approach, depending on the nature of the allowance, using all reasonably available information, including our historical experience and current expectations. Customer allowances and promotional programs for consumers are reflected in the transaction price when sales are recorded. We may adjust our estimates based on actual results and consideration of other factors that cause allowances. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted. Adjustments to the costs of customer allowances and promotional programs for consumers in subsequent periods are generally not material, as our promotions are typically of short duration, thereby reducing the uncertainty inherent in such estimates.

Sales returns are generally not material to our financial statements, and do not comprise a significant portion of variable consideration. Estimates for sales returns are based on, among other things, an assessment of historical trends, information from customers, and anticipated returns related to current sales activity. These estimates are established in the period of sale and reduce our revenue in that period.

Sales are recorded at the time that control of the products is transferred to customers. In evaluating the timing of the transfer of control of products to customers, we consider several indicators, including significant risks and rewards of products, our right to payment, and the legal title of the products. Based on the assessment of control indicators, sales are generally recognized when products are delivered to customers.

We have also established an allowance for doubtful accounts. We estimate this allowance based upon, among other things, an assessment of the credit risk of specific customers and historical trends. We believe our allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb any losses which may arise. In the event that actual losses differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted.

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 approximately $1,130 and $1,070, respectively, had been reserved as a reduction of accounts receivable. Trade promotions to our customers and incentives such as coupons to our consumers are deducted from gross sales and totaled $1,990 and $1,854 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and totaled $718 and $522 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively.

We expense advertising costs as incurred.

We account for share based payments by recognizing compensation expense based upon the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. We determine the estimated grant-date fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. In order to calculate the fair value of the options, certain assumptions are made regarding the components of the model, including the estimated fair value of underlying common stock, risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield and expected option life. Changes to the assumptions could cause significant adjustments to the valuation. We recognize compensation costs ratably over the vesting period using the straight-line method.

Cost of sales includes costs associated with manufacturing and distribution including labor, materials, freight-in, purchasing and receiving, quality control, internal transfer costs, repairs, maintenance and other indirect costs, as well as warehousing and distribution costs. We classify shipping and handling costs comprised primarily of freight-out as selling expenses. Other selling expenses consist primarily of wages, benefits, and travel expenses for sales and sales support personnel, brokerage commissions and promotional costs, as well as certain other indirect costs. Shipping and handling costs totaled $1,966 and $1,864 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, and totaled $806 and $611 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of wages and benefits associated with management and administrative support departments, business insurance costs, professional fees, office facility related expenses, and other general support costs.

The Company entered into a confidential separation agreement, waiver and release with the former Chief Financial Officer of the Company effective June 1, 2018 (the “Separation Agreement”). The Company agreed to pay the former Chief Financial Officer severance pay over nine months in conjunction with terms set forth in the Separation Agreement. Severance costs of $287 were recognized in the second quarter of 2018 and are included in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Accrued severance costs are included in accrued expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2018.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). This guidance, as amended by subsequent ASUs on the topic, requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with such classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We anticipate that most of our operating leases will result in recognition of additional assets and the corresponding liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have not determined the amount of these transactions or the final impact to our earnings as the actual impact will depend on the Company’s lease portfolio at the time of adoption.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments —Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). Among other things, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Effective for SEC filers for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. ASU 2016-13 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). The new guidance modifies disclosure requirements related to fair value measurement.  The amendments in ASU 2018-13 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.  Implementation on a prospective or retrospective basis varies by specific disclosure requirement.  Early adoption is permitted. The standard also allows for early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this ASU while delaying adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. ASU 2018-13 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 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”). The new guidance reduces complexity for the accounting for costs of implementing a cloud computing service arrangement and  aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license).  For public companies, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Implementation should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. ASU 2018-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we granted options to acquire: (i) 40,056 shares of our common stock to employees at prices ranging from $2.17 to $3.35 per share; (ii) 105,000 shares of our common stock to executive officers at prices ranging from $2.09 to $2.17 per share; and (iii) 90,000 shares of our common stock to non-employee board members at a price of $2.17 per share.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we granted options to acquire: 16,560 shares of our common stock to employees at prices ranging from $1.80 and $2.25 per share; and (ii) 30,000 shares of our common stock to a non-employee board member at a price of $2.25 per share.

The weighted average fair market value of the options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were estimated on the date of grant, using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

Compensation cost related to stock options recognized in operating results (included in general and administrative expenses) totaled $184 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Approximately $384 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over the next four years, depending on the vesting provisions of the options. There was no tax benefit from recording the non-cash expense as it relates to the options granted to employees, as these were qualified stock options which are not normally tax deductible.

 

 

Per share data is determined by using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are considered only for diluted earnings per share, unless considered anti-dilutive. Common equivalent shares, determined using the treasury stock method, result from stock options with exercise prices that are below the average market price of the common stock.

8

---

 

Basic earnings per share include no dilution and are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential of securities that could share in our earnings.

A reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is as follows:

 

 

Common stock equivalents that have been excluded from the calculation of earnings per share because they would have been anti-dilutive:

 

 

 

We operate in two different segments: household products and skin and hair care products. Our products are sold nationally and internationally (primarily China and Canada), directly through our sales force (or pursuant to exclusive distribution agreements for our international sales) and indirectly through independent brokers and manufacturer’s representatives, to mass merchandisers, drugstores, supermarkets, hardware stores, e-commerce retailers, and other retail outlets and to wholesale distributors. We have chosen to organize our business around these segments based on differences in the products sold.

Accounting policies for our segments are the same as those described in Note 1. We evaluate segment performance based on segment income or loss before income taxes.

The following provides information on our segments for the three and nine months ended September 30:

Goodwill and intangible assets, which are related to our acquisition of our Prell^®, Denorex^®, and Zincon^® brands, consisted of the following:

 

 

The amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $465, respectively. The amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $155, respectively.

 

Estimated amortization expense for 2018 and subsequent years is as follows:

 

 

 

On June 30, 2016, the Company and Neoteric Cosmetics, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, collectively as borrowers, entered into a credit agreement, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”), as lender, pursuant to which Chase provided a term loan and a revolving credit facility that were related to our acquisition of the Prell^®, Denorex^®, and Zincon^® brands.

 

In June 2018, we paid the remaining principal balance of the term loan in the amount of $1,000. There were no additional costs incurred associated with the prepayment of the term loan.

 

10

---

 

The revolving credit facility amount is $4 million with interest of: (i) the LIBO Rate + 2.5%; or (ii) the Prime Rate, with a floor of the one month LIBO Rate + 2.5%, and will terminate on June 30, 2019 or any earlier date on which the revolving commitment is otherwise terminated pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Under the Credit Agreement we are obligated to pay quarterly an unused commitment fee equal to 0.5% per annum on the daily amount of the undrawn portion of the revolving line-of-credit. The loans are collateralized by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

 

The Credit Agreement requires, among other things, that beginning on December 31, 2016 and subsequently on a quarterly basis, the Company is subject to affirmative, negative, and financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

Debt issuance costs recognized as a component of interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $38 and $19, respectively. Debt issuance costs recognized as a component of interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $0 and $6, respectively. In conjunction with the prepayment of the remaining principal balance of the term loan, $25 of unamortized debt issuance costs were recognized as a component of interest expense. Prior to the prepayment of the term loan, these costs were amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Credit Agreement.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financing Agreements

Please see Note 6 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on our Credit Agreement with Chase.

Liquidity and Changes in Cash Flows

At September 30, 2018, we had $4,000 available on our revolving credit facility, and approximately $5,646 in cash on hand, which was $1,532 more compared to December 31, 2017.

 

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities:

 

We anticipate that our existing cash and our cash flow from operations, together with our current Credit Agreement with Chase, will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the 12 months following the filing date of this Report. During the first nine months of 2018, we spent $202 on routine and maintenance production and warehouse equipment in our manufacturing facility. We expect to make additional capital expenditures of approximately $100 in 2018 to improve our manufacturing capabilities and efficiencies and on production and warehouse equipment.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2018, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of September 30, 2018.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
