DIGITAL POWER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – Unaudited

JUNE 30, 2017

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

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Digital Power Corporation ("Digital Power") was incorporated in 1969, under the General Corporation Law of the State of California. Digital Power and Digital Power Limited ("DP Limited"), a wholly owned subsidiary, located in the United Kingdom, are currently engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of switching power supplies and converters. On November 30, 2016, Digital Power formed Digital Power Lending, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary (“DP Lending”). DP Lending is engaged in providing commercial loans to companies throughout the United States to provide them with operating capital to finance the growth of their businesses. The loans will primarily be short-term, ranging from six to twelve months. Further, on June 2, 2017, Digital Power purchased 56.4% of the outstanding equity interests of Microphase Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Microphase”). Microphase is a design-to-manufacture original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) delivering radio frequency (“RF”) and microwave filters, diplexers, multiplexers, detectors, switch filters, integrated assemblies and detector logarithmic video amplifiers (“DLVA”) to the military, aerospace and telecommunications industries. Microphase is headquartered in Shelton, Connecticut. Digital Power, DP Limited, Microphase and DP Lending (collectively, the “Company”) has two reportable geographic segments - North America (sales through Digital Power, Microphase and DP Lending) and Europe (sales through DP Limited).

 

 

2. LIQUIDITY, GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

  

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalent of $443, an accumulated deficit of $15,218 and a negative working capital of $2,085. The Company has incurred recurring losses and reported losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, totaled $1,739 and $2,733, respectively.  In the past, the Company has financed its operations principally through issuances of convertible debt, promissory notes and equity securities. During 2017, as reflected below, the Company continues to successfully obtain additional equity and debt financing and in restructuring existing debt. The following financings transactions were consummated during 2017:

 

 

 

·

On April 17, 2017, the Company entered into two 7% convertible notes (the “7% Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $250. The 7% Convertible Notes accrue interest at 7% simple interest on the principal amount and were due on June 2, 2017. The 7% Convertible Notes were not repaid on the maturity date and as such were in default at June 30, 2017. During July 2017 these two 7% Convertible Notes were repaid (See Note 11).

 

·

On April 26, 2017, the Company entered into a 7% convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $104. On June 28, 2017, the noteholder converted the outstanding balance into 189,091 shares of Digital Power’s common stock (See Note 11).

 

·

Between May 24, 2017 and June 19, 2017, Digital Power entered into subscription agreements (the “Series C Subscription Agreement”) with approximately twenty accredited investors (the “Series C Investors”) in connection with the sale of twenty-one Units at a purchase price of $52 per Unit raising in the aggregate $1,092 with each Unit consisting of Series C Preferred Stock and Warrants (See Note 13).

 

The Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future and needs to raise additional capital to continue its business development initiatives and to support its working capital requirements. In March 2017, the Company was awarded a 3-year, $50 million purchase order by MTIX Ltd. (“MTIX") to manufacture, install and service the Multiplex Laser Surface Enhancement (“MLSE”) plasma-laser system. Management believes that the MLSE purchase order will be a source of revenue and generate significant cash flows for the Company. Management believes that the Company has access to capital resources through potential public or private issuance of debt or equity securities. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to curtail operations and take additional measures to reduce costs, including reducing its workforce, eliminating outside consultants and reducing legal fees in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

 

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Digital Power, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, DP Limited and DP Lending and its majority-owned subsidiary, Microphase. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. The Company's management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Key estimates include fair value of certain financial instruments, reserve for trade receivables and inventories, carrying amounts of investments, accruals of certain liabilities, and deferred income taxes and related valuation allowance.

 

Investments in Debt and Equity Securities

The Company classifies its investments in Avalanche International, Corp (“AVLP”), consisting of shares of common stock and debt securities, in accordance with ASC No. 320, Investment in Debt and Equity Securities (“ASC No. 320”) and ASC No. 325, Investment – Other (“ASC No. 325”). The investment in marketable securities and convertible promissory notes are both classified as “available-for-sale securities” and are carried at fair value, based on quoted market prices. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity, accumulated other comprehensive loss. When evaluating the Company’s debt and equity investments for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the investment before recovery of the investment’s amortized cost basis. Equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values (i.e., non-marketable equity securities) and are not required to be accounted for under the equity method are typically carried at cost (i.e., cost method investments), as described in ASC No. 325-20. Additionally, the investment in debt securities of AVLP qualifies for application of the fair value option in accordance with ASC No. 825.

 

 

Warranty

The Company offers a warranty period for all of its products. Warranty periods range from one to two years depending on the product. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranty and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect the Company's warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

 

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s accrued warranty liability was $86.

  

Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company classifies common stock purchase warrants and other free standing derivative financial instruments as equity if the contracts (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (iii) contain reset provisions as either an asset or a liability. The Company assesses classification of its freestanding derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required. The Company determined that certain freestanding derivatives, which principally consist of issuance of warrants to purchase shares of common in connection with convertible notes, units and to employees of the Company, satisfy the criteria for classification as equity instruments as these warrants do not contain cash settlement features or variable settlement provision that cause them to not be indexed to the Company’s own stock.

  

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation ("ASC No. 718"). Under ASC No. 718, compensation expense related to stock-based payments is recorded over the requisite service period based on the grant date fair value of the awards.  Compensation previously recorded for unvested stock options that are forfeited is reversed upon forfeiture.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model for determining the estimated fair value for stock-based awards.  The Black-Scholes model requires the use of assumptions which determine the fair value of stock-based awards, including the option’s expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock.

The Company’s accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of ASC No. 505-50, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees.  Accordingly, the measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete.  In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

 

  

Conversion options that contain variable settlement features such as provisions to adjust the conversion price upon subsequent issuances of equity or equity linked securities at exercise prices more favorable than that featured in the hybrid contract generally result in their bifurcation from the host instrument.

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments, when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments, in accordance with ASC No. 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC No. 470-20”). Under ASC No. 470-20 the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when the Company has determined that the embedded conversion options should be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with ASC No. 815.

  

Comprehensive Loss

The Company reports comprehensive loss in accordance with ASC No. 220, Comprehensive Income. This statement establishes standards for the reporting and presentation of comprehensive loss and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. Comprehensive loss generally represents all changes in equity during the period except those resulting from investments by, or distributions to, stockholders. The Company determined that its items of other comprehensive loss relate to changes in foreign currency translation adjustments.

Fair value of Financial Instruments

In accordance with ASC No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received for the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date.

 

The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

 

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s investments were $2,582 and $1,036, respectively, and were concentrated in debt and equity securities of AVLP, a related party (See Note 4), which are classified as available-for-sale investments.  At June 30, 2017, the Company's investment in AVLP is comprised of convertible promissory notes of $2,491, net of unamortized discount, and marketable equity securities of $91. At December 31, 2016, the Company's investment in AVLP is comprised of convertible promissory notes of $952, net of unamortized discount, and marketable equity securities of $84. For investments in marketable equity securities, the Company took into consideration general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the fair value is below cost, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment for a sufficient period of time to allow for recovery of value in the foreseeable future. As a result of this analysis, the Company has determined that its cost basis in AVLP equitable securities approximates the current fair value.

 

Consistent with the guidance at ASC No. 835, the Company’s presumption is that the fair value of its convertible promissory notes in AVLP have a present value equivalent to the cash proceeds exchanged. Further, the discount shall be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of the convertible promissory notes. Thus, the Company has determined that the amortized cost of its convertible promissory notes approximates fair value and are subject to a periodic impairment review. The interest income, including amortization of the discount arising at acquisition, for the convertible promissory notes are included in earnings. In the future, if the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis, the Company shall recognize other-than-temporary impairments in other comprehensive income (loss).

In the first quarter of 2017, the Company purchased at the market shares of common stock of three companies for a total cost of $20. In accordance with ASC No. 320-10, these investments are accounted for pursuant to the fair value method. Based upon the closing market prices of common stock for these three companies at June 30, 2017, and most recently at August 15, 2017, the Company determined that its cost basis in the shares of common stock for these companies approximates the current fair value and has concluded that its investment in marketable securities is not impaired.

The categorization of a financial instrument within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial instruments that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy:

 

 

Net Loss per Share

Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share is the same for all periods presented, as the effect of the potential common stock equivalents is anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss position for all periods presented. The Company has included 317,460 warrants, with an exercise price of $.01, in its earnings per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.  Anti-dilutive securities consisted of the following at June 30,

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting standards and does not believe the adoption of such standards will have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. INVESTMENTS – RELATED PARTIES

Investments in AVLP at June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, are comprised of the following:

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company made a strategic decision to invest in AVLP, a related party controlled by Philou, an existing majority stockholder. The Company’s investments in AVLP primarily consist of convertible promissory notes and shares of common stock of AVLP.

 

 

The Company has concluded that indicators of impairment, including those described in ASC No. 320-10-35-27, do not currently exist for the Company’s investment in debt and equity securities of AVLP.

5. ACQUISITION

At closing, the purchase price of Digital Power’s 56.4% interest in Microphase was determined to be $1,451, comprised of the Exchange Shares, valued at $1,222, and the Exchange warrants, valued at $229. The value assigned to the Exchange Shares was based on the closing price of the Common Stock on June 2, 2017. The Company computed the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The acquisition of Microphase is being accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with ASC No. 805, Business Combinations. Under the purchase method, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values. Goodwill is recorded to the extent the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition.

6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Under the Company's 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and the 2012 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the “2012 Plan”) (collectively, the “Plans”), options may be granted to employees, officers, consultants, service providers and directors of the Company. The Plans, as amended, provide for the issuance of a maximum of 5,372,630 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company also has 206,000 outstanding options that were granted between 2009 and 2011 pursuant to the terms of the Company's 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”). Options granted pursuant to the 2002 Plan expire between September 2008 and February 2021.

Options granted under the Plans have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant and become exercisable based on a vesting schedule determined at the date of grant. Typically, options granted generally become fully vested after four years. Any options that are forfeited or cancelled before expiration become available for future grants. The options expire between 5 and 10 years from the date of grant.  Restricted stock awards granted under the Plans are subject to a vesting period determined at the date of grant. As of June 30, 2017, an aggregate of 1,781,477 of the Company's options are still available for future grant.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted nil and 510,000 options, respectively, from the Plans to its employees at an average exercise price of $0.60 per share.  These options become fully vested after four years. The Company estimated that the grant date fair value of these options was $229, which is being recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the requisite four-year service period. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company also issued 956,153 shares of common stock to its consultants and service providers pursuant to the 2016 Plan. The Company estimated that the grant date fair value of these shares of common stock was $499, which was determined from the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance. The Company did not grant any options or restricted stock awards during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

The Company has valued the options at their date of grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  This model is dependent upon several variables such as the options’ term, exercise price, current stock price, risk-free interest rate estimated over the expected term and estimated volatility of our stock over the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate used in the calculations is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the options as calculated using the simplified method. The estimated volatility was determined based on the historical volatility of our common stock.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company estimated the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

 

The options outstanding as of June 30, 2017, have been classified by exercise price, as follows:

The total stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards issued pursuant to the Plans to the Company’s employees, consultants and directors, included in reported net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, is comprised as follows:

 

The combination of stock-based compensation of $696 from the issuances of equity based awards pursuant to the Plans and stock-based compensation attributed to restricted stock awards of $10 and warrants of $46, which were issued outside of the Plans, resulted in aggregate stock-based compensation of $752 during the six months ended June 30, 2017. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, aggregate stock-based compensation was $595, which consisted of $572 from the issuances of equity based awards pursuant to the Plans and stock-based compensation attributed to warrants of $23, which were issued outside of the Plans. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the only stock-based compensation expense was from issuances pursuant to the Plans.

A summary of option activity under the Company's stock option plans as of June 30, 2017, and changes during the six months ended are as follows:

 

 

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total intrinsic value (the difference between the Company's closing stock price on June 30, 2017, $0.72 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money-options).

 

As of June 30, 2017, there was $524 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company's stock option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

 

 

The following table summarizes information about common stock warrants outstanding at June 30, 2017:

The Company has valued the warrants at their date of grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  This model is dependent upon several variables such as the warrants’ term, exercise price, current stock price, risk-free interest rate and estimated volatility of our stock over the contractual term of the options. The risk-free interest rate used in the calculations is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the contractual life of the warrants.

 

 

The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions used during the six months ended June 30, 2017:

 

8. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY

Microphase entered into a revolving loan agreement with Gerber Finance, Inc. (“Gerber”) in February of 2012, as amended in September 2015 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). Under the Revolving Credit Facility, Microphase can receive funds based on a borrowing base, which consists of various percentages of eligible accounts receivable, inventories, and equipment plus a restricted cash account in the amount of $100 held by Gerber, up to a maximum revolving amount of $1,400 (the “Maximum Revolving Amount”). Pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, Microphase is subject to an annual facility fee in an amount equal to 1.75% of the Maximum Revolving Amount due on each anniversary, a monthly collateral monitoring fees of $1 and other fees. Interest accrues at the prime rate plus three and three-quarters percent (3.75%) on the unpaid principal. Effective June 15, 2017, the prime rate was increased from 4.00% to 4.25% resulting in a base rate of 8.00%. If borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility exceed the collateral borrowing base, then Microphase is subject to an additional 2.5% interest charge per month on the over-advance amounts and a separate additional charge of 2.5% if borrowings exceed the Maximum Revolving Amount. At June 30, 2017, the amount due pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility, of $612, exceeded the collateral borrowing base by $70. The interest expense for the period from June 3, 2017 to June 30, 2017, was $14.

 

On June 20, 2017, Microphase received a notice from Gerber that several events of default had occurred under the Revolving Credit Facility and on July 14, 2017, Microphase and Gerber entered into a Forbearance Agreement. The events of default were primarily related to, (i) the change in control that occurred on June 2, 2017, when Digital Power acquired a majority interest in Microphase, and (ii) borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility exceeding the collateral borrowing base.

Other Notes Payable

In February 2017, the Company issued to eight accredited investors $400 in demand promissory notes bearing interest at a rate of 6% per annum. Of the eight accredited investors, one investor was deemed a related party. As additional consideration, the investors received five-year warrants to purchase 333,333 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share (the “Feb. 2017 Warrants”). The Feb. 2017 Warrants are exercisable commencing six months after the issuance date and are subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations. The exercise price of the Feb. 2017 Warrants is subject to adjustment for customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other standard anti-dilution events. The Feb. 2017 Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded debt discount in the amount of $151 based on the estimated fair value of the Feb. 2017 Warrants. The Company computed the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. As a result of the due on demand feature of the promissory notes, the debt discount was amortized as non-cash interest expense upon issuance of the Feb. 2017 Warrants using the effective interest method.

 

Between February 16, 2017 and February 23, 2017, the holders of the $400 in demand promissory notes agreed to cancel their demand promissory notes for the purchase of 666,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, an extinguishment price of $0.60 per share. During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded additional interest expense of $13 as a result of the extinguishment of the $400 in demand promissory notes based on the difference of the carrying amount of the demand promissory notes and the fair value of the consideration transferred, which was determined from the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of extinguishment.

11. CONVERTIBLE NOTES

Convertible notes at June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, are comprised of the following:

 

 

On April 17, 2017, the Company entered into two 7% convertible notes (the “7% Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $250. The 7% Convertible Notes accrue interest at 7% simple interest on the principal amount and were due on June 2, 2017. The principal may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.75 per share. The noteholder may convert the principal amount of the 7% Convertible Notes at any time into common stock. The 7% Convertible Notes contains standard and customary events of default including, but not limited to, failure to make payments when due under the 7% Convertible Note agreements and bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. The Company has the right to prepay the 7% Convertible Notes. The 7% Convertible Notes were not repaid on the maturity date and as such were in default at June 30, 2017.

 

As additional consideration, the investors received five and a half year warrants to purchase 166,668 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.90 per share (collectively the “7% Convertible Note Warrants”). The 7% Convertible Note Warrants are exercisable commencing six months after the issuance date. The exercise price of the 7% Convertible Note Warrants is subject to adjustment for customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other standard anti-dilution events. The 7% Convertible Note Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. The Company computed the fair value of the 7% Convertible Note Warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and, as a result of this calculation, recorded debt discount in the amount of $61 based on the estimated fair value of the 7% Convertible Note Warrants.

 

The beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) embedded in the 7% Convertible Notes is accounted for under ASC No. 470, Debt. At issuance, the estimated fair value of the BCF totaled $31. The fair value of the BCF was allocated from the net proceeds of the 7% Convertible Note and was amortized to interest expense over the term of the 7% Convertible Notes using the effective interest method.  The valuation of the BCF was calculated based on the effective conversion price compared with the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance of the Convertible Note. In aggregate, the Company recorded debt discount in the amount of $93 based on the relative fair values of the 7% Convertible Note Warrants of $61 and BCF of $32. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, non-cash interest expense of $93 was recorded from the amortization of debt discounts. As of June 30, 2017, accrued interest on the 7% Convertible Notes was $4.

Other Convertible Notes Payable

 

As additional consideration, the investor received a five-year warrant to purchase 160,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.80 per share. The warrants are exercisable commencing six months after the issuance date. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment for customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other standard anti-dilution events. The warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. The Company computed the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and, as a result of this calculation, recorded debt discount in the amount of $25 based on the estimated fair value of the warrants.

The beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) embedded in this convertible note is accounted for under ASC No. 470, Debt. At issuance, the estimated fair value of the BCF totaled $26. The fair value of the BCF was allocated from the net proceeds of the convertible note and was amortized to interest expense over the term of the convertible note using the effective interest method. The valuation of the BCF was calculated based on the effective conversion price compared with the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance of the convertible note. In aggregate, the Company recorded debt discount in the amount of $51 based on the relative fair values of the warrants of $25 and BCF of $26. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, non-cash interest expense of $51 was recorded from the amortization of debt discounts. As of June 30, 2017, accrued interest on this convertible note was $1.

 

 

On October 21, 2016, the Company entered into a 12% convertible secured note (the “Convertible Note”) in the principal amount of $530. The Convertible Note included an original issue discount (“OID”) of $30 resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $500. Additionally, the Convertible Note accrues interest at 12% simple interest on the principal amount, is secured by all the assets of the Company, and is due on October 20, 2019. Interest only payments are due on a quarterly basis and the principal may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.55 per share. Subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations, the noteholder may convert the principal amount of the Convertible Note at any time into common stock. The conversion price of the Convertible Note is subject to adjustment for customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or other standard anti-dilution events.

The Convertible Note contains standard and customary events of default including, but not limited to, failure to make payments when due under the Convertible Note agreement and bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. Upon 30 days’ notice, the Company has the right to prepay the Convertible Note. In addition, provided that the closing price for a share of the Company’s common stock exceeds $3.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days, the Company has the right to compel the noteholder to convert the principal amount into shares of common stock at the contractual conversion price.

 

As additional consideration, the investor received a three-year warrant to purchase 265,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $0.80 per share, and a three-year warrant to purchase 265,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $0.90 per share (collectively the “Convertible Note Warrants”). The Convertible Note Warrants are exercisable commencing six months after the issuance date and are subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations. The exercise price of the Convertible Note Warrants is subject to adjustment for customary stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and other standard anti-dilution events. The Convertible Note Warrants may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis. The Convertible Note Warrants have a call feature that permits the Company to force redemption at $0.001 per share in the event the closing price for a share of the Company’s common stock exceeds $3.00 for 30 consecutive trading days. The Company computed the fair value of the Convertible Note Warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and, as a result of this calculation, recorded debt discount in the amount of $159 based on the estimated fair value of the Convertible Note Warrants.

The beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) embedded in the Convertible Note is accounted for under ASC No. 470, Debt. At issuance, the estimated fair value of the BCF totaled $329. The fair value of the BCF was allocated from the net proceeds of the Convertible Note and the respective discount and is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Convertible Note using the effective interest method.  The valuation of the BCF was calculated based on the effective conversion price compared with the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance of the Convertible Note.

In aggregate, the Company recorded debt discount in the amount of $518 based on the relative fair values of the Convertible Note Warrants of $159, BCF of $329 and OID of $30. The debt discount is being amortized as non-cash interest expense over the term of the debt. In addition, the Company incurred $13 of debt issuance costs which are also being amortized as non-cash interest expense over the term of the debt. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, non-cash interest expense of $44 was recorded from the amortization of debt discounts and debt financing cost. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, accrued interest on the Convertible Note was $16 and $12, respectively.

 

13. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with no par value. The Board of Directors has designated 500,000 shares of its Preferred Stock as Series A cumulative Redeemable Convertible Preferred shares (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), 500,000 shares as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), 460,000 shares as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), 378,776 shares as Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), and 10,000 shares as Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”). The rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions on the remaining authorized 151,224 shares of Preferred Stock have not been determined. The Company’s Board of Directors is authorized to create a new series of preferred shares and determine the number of shares, as well as the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any series of preferred shares. As of June 30, 2017, there were 100,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, 455,002 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, 378,776 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, 10,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and no other shares of Preferred Stock were issued or outstanding. As of December 31, 2016, there were no shares of Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.

 

Series B Preferred Stock

On March 9, 2017, the Company entered into a Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with Philou, a related party. Pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, Philou may invest up to $5,000 in the Company through the purchase of Series B Preferred Stock over the term of 36 months.

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of $10.00 per share. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock may be convertible at the holder’s option into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion rate of $0.70 per share, upon the earlier to occur of: (i) 60 months from the closing date, or (ii) upon the filing by the Company of one or more periodic reports that, singly or collectively, evidence(s) that the Company’s gross revenues have reached no less than $10,000 in the aggregate, on a consolidated reporting basis, over four consecutive quarters in accordance with U.S.  GAAP. The conversion price will be subject to standard anti-dilution provisions in connection with any stock split, stock dividend, subdivision or similar reclassification of the common stock.

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to receive dividends equal to one ten millionth (0.0000001) of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation (“EBITDAS”) calculated for a particular calendar year. Assuming the purchase of the entire $5,000 of shares of Preferred Stock, the holders thereof will be entitled to receive dividends equal to five percent (5%) in the aggregate of EBITDAS. Payment of dividends shall be calculated for a calendar year, payable on a quarterly basis, with payments to occur no later than 90 days in arrears from each reporting period subject to a year-end reconciliation. EBITDAS shall mean earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation.

At such time as (i) all shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) shall have been registered for resale pursuant to an effective Registration Statement covering such Conversion Shares, (ii) but no earlier than the twenty-fifth (25th) anniversary of the effective date, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be subject to redemption in cash at the option of the Company in an amount per share equal to 120% of the greater of (a) the stated value plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any and (b) the fair market value of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

 

In addition, for each share of Series B Preferred Stock purchased, Philou will receive warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a number equal to the stated value of each share of Series B Preferred Stock purchased divided by $0.70, at an exercise price equal to $0.70 per share of common stock. The warrants do not require a net cash-settlement or provide the holder with a choice of net-cash settlement. The warrants also do not contain a variable settlement provision. Accordingly, any warrants issued to Philou pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement shall be classified as equity instruments.

Further, Philou shall have the right to participate in the Company’s future financings under substantially the same terms and conditions as other investors in those respective financings in order to maintain its then percentage ownership interest in the Company. Philou’s right to participate in such financings shall accrue and accumulate provided that it still owns at least 100,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock.

Between March 24, 2017 and June 2, 2017, Philou purchased 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement in consideration of the cancellation of the Company debt due to an affiliate of Philou in the amount of $250 and cash of $750. In addition, Philou received warrants to purchase 1,428,572 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share of common stock, which have been classified as equity instruments. The Company determined that the estimated relative fair value of these warrants, which are classified as equity, was $401 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Since the warrants were classified as equity securities, the Company allocated the $1,000 purchase price based on the relative fair values of the Series B Preferred Stock and the warrants following the guidance in ASC No. 470, Debt.

 

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of Philou, into shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price, which is subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or similar events, of $0.70 per share. As the effective conversion price of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock on a converted basis was below the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance, it was determined that these discounts represent contingent beneficial conversion features, which were valued at $265 based on the difference between the effective conversion price and the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance.

The Company, however, is prohibited from issuing shares of common stock pursuant to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock unless stockholder approval of such issuance of securities is obtained as required by applicable NYSE MKT listing rules. The Company has not yet received stockholder approval of such share issuances. This provision resulted in a contingent beneficial conversion feature that shall be recognized once the contingency is resolved.

Each Unit consists of 21,667 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase 86,667 shares of common stock.

Each share of Series C Preferred stock is mandatorily converted into shares of Common Stock based on the then conversion price in effect in the event that the Company’s Common Stock closing price exceeds $1.20 per share for 20 consecutive trading days. As the effective conversion price of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock on a converted basis was below the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance, it was determined that these discounts represent beneficial conversion features, which were valued at $371 and recognized as a deemed dividend, based on the difference between the effective conversion price and the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance.

 

Each share of Series C Preferred Stock has the right to receive dividends equal $0.24 per share per annum as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors. The dividends will be paid on a quarterly basis on the 20th day following each calendar quarter.
