ORBCOMM Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(All amounts in thousands, except share amounts, per share amounts or unless otherwise noted)

 

 

1. Organization and Business

ORBCOMM Inc. (“ORBCOMM” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is a global provider of industrial Internet of Things (“IoT”) solutions, including network connectivity, devices, device management and web reporting applications. The Company’s industrial IoT products and services are designed to track, monitor, control and enhance security for a variety of assets, such as trailers, trucks, rail cars, sea containers, power generators, fluid tanks, marine vessels, diesel or electric powered generators (“gensets”), oil and gas wells, pipeline monitoring equipment, irrigation control systems and utility meters, in the transportation and supply chain, heavy equipment, fixed asset monitoring, and maritime industries, as well as for governments. Additionally, the Company provides satellite Automatic Identification Service (“AIS”) data services to assist in vessel navigation and to improve maritime safety for government and commercial customers worldwide. Through two acquisitions in 2017, the Company added vehicle fleet management, as well as in-cab and vehicle fleet solutions to its transportation product portfolio. The Company provides its services using multiple network platforms, including its own constellation of low-Earth orbit satellites and accompanying ground infrastructure, as well as terrestrial-based cellular communication services obtained through reseller agreements with major cellular (Tier One) wireless providers. The Company also offers customer solutions utilizing additional satellite network service options that the Company obtains through service agreements entered into with multiple mobile satellite providers. The Company’s satellite-based customer solution offerings use small, low-power, mobile satellite subscriber communicators for remote asset connectivity, and the Company’s terrestrial-based solutions utilize cellular data modems with subscriber identity modules (“SIMs”). The Company also resells service using the two-way Inmarsat plc satellite network to provide higher bandwidth, low-latency satellite products and services, leveraging the Company’s IsatDataPro technology. The Company’s customer solutions provide access to data gathered over these systems via connections to other public or private networks, including the Internet. The Company is dedicated to providing what it believes are the most versatile, leading-edge industrial IoT solutions in its markets to enable its customers to run their businesses more efficiently.

 

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The accompanying financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and investments in variable interest entities in which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The portions of majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company does not own are reflected as noncontrolling interests on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Investments

Investments in entities over which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but does not have a controlling interest are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company considers several factors in determining whether it has the ability to exercise significant influence with respect to investments, including, but not limited to, direct and indirect ownership level in the voting securities, active participation on the board of directors, approval of operating and budgeting decisions and other participatory and protective rights. Under the equity method, the Company’s proportionate share of the net income or loss of such investees is reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations. When the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee, the investment is accounted for under the cost method.

Although the Company owns interests in companies that it accounts for pursuant to the equity method, the investments in those entities had no carrying value as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company has no guarantees or other funding obligations to those entities and the Company had no equity in the earnings or losses of those investees for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Acquisition-Related and Integration Costs

Acquisition-related and integration costs include professional services expenses and identifiable integration costs directly attributable to acquisitions.

Revenue Recognition

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”). The Company reviewed its contract portfolio and determined its application of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on the comparability of revenue recognized prior to the adoption of ASU 2014-09.

The Company derives recurring service revenues primarily from monthly fees for industrial IoT connectivity services that consist of subscriber-based and recurring monthly usage fees for each subscriber communicator or SIM activated for use on its satellite network, other satellite networks and cellular wireless networks that the Company resells to its resellers, Market Channel Partners (“MCPs”) and Market Channel Affiliates (“MCAs”), and direct customers. In addition, the Company earns service revenues from subscription-based services providing recurring AIS data services to government and commercial customers worldwide. The Company also earns recurring service revenues from activations of subscriber communicators and SIMs, optional separately-priced extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period, typically one year, which are billed to the customer upon shipment of a subscriber communicator, and royalty fees relating to the manufacture of subscriber communicators under a manufacturing agreement.

Service revenues derived from usage fees are generally based upon the data transmitted by a customer, the overall number of subscriber communicators and/or SIMs activated by each customer, and whether the Company provides services through its value-added portal. Using the output method, these service revenues are recognized over time, as services are rendered, or at a point in time, based on the contract terms. AIS service revenues are generated over time from monthly subscription-based services supplying AIS data to its customers and resellers using the output method. In addition, data analytics service revenues are generated from monthly subscription-based services supplying analytical data to its customers using the output method. Revenues from the activation of both subscriber communicators and SIMs are initially recorded as deferred revenues and are, thereafter, recognized on a ratable basis using a time-based output method, generally over three years, the estimated life of the subscriber communicator. Revenues from separately- priced extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period, typically one year, are initially recorded as deferred revenues and are, thereafter, recognized on a ratable basis using a time-based output method, generally over two to five years. Revenues generated from royalties relating to the manufacture of subscriber communicators by third parties are recognized as earned when the third party notifies the Company of the units it has manufactured and a unique serial number is assigned to each unit by the Company.

The Company earns other service revenues from installation services and engineering, technical and management support services. Revenues generated from installation services are recognized at a point in time using the output method when the services are completed. Revenues generated from engineering, technical and management support services to customers are recognized over time as the service is provided. The Company also generates other service revenues through the sale of software licenses to its customers, which are recognized at a point in time using the output method when the license is provided to the customer.

Product sales are derived from sales of industrial IoT subscriber communicators, including telematics devices, modems or cellular wireless SIMs (for the Company’s terrestrial-communication services) to the Company’s resellers (i.e., MCPs and MCAs) and direct customers. Product sales are recognized at a point in time when title transfers, when the products are shipped or when customers accept the products, depending on the specific contractual terms. Sales of subscriber communicators and SIMs are not subject to return, and title and risk of loss pass to the customer generally at the time of shipment.

Amounts received prior to the performance of services under customer contracts are recognized as deferred revenues and revenue recognition is deferred until such time that all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Deferred revenue as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 consisted of the following:

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized revenue of $3,422 which was included as deferred revenue as of December 31, 2018.

Shipping costs billed to customers are included in product sales and the related costs are included as cost of product sales.

The Company generates revenue from leasing arrangements of subscriber communicators, under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842 “Leases” (“ASC 842”), using the estimated selling prices for each of the deliverables recognized.  Product and installation revenues associated with these arrangements are recognized upon shipment or installation of the subscriber communicator, depending on the specific contractual terms. Service and warranty revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, as services are rendered, or on a cash basis, if collection from the customer is not reasonably assured at the time the service is provided.

The following table summarizes the components of revenue from contracts with customers, as well as revenue recognized under ASC 842:

Revenue Recognition for Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company enters into contracts with its customers that include multiple performance obligations, which typically include subscriber communicators, monthly usage fees and optional extended warranty service agreements. The Company evaluates each item to determine whether it represents a promise to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and therefore is a separate performance obligation under ASU 2014-09.  If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation. The Company uses an observable price to determine the stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations when sold on its own or a cost-plus margin approach when one is not available.

If an arrangement provided to a customer has a significant and incremental discount on future revenue, such right is considered a performance obligation and a proportionate amount of the discount should be allocated to each element based on the relative stand-alone selling price of each element, regardless of the discount. The Company has determined that arrangements provided to its customers do not include significant and incremental discounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has no financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur, the Company is required to evaluate the non-financial assets for impairment and any resulting asset impairment would require that a non-financial asset be recorded at fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurement Disclosure” prioritizes inputs used in measuring fair value into a hierarchy of three levels: Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets; Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these items. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of the Senior Secured Notes, as defined below, is based on observable relevant market information. Fluctuation between the carrying amount and the fair value of the Senior Secured Notes for the period presented is associated with changes in market interest rates. The Company may redeem all or part of the Senior Secured Notes at any time or from time to time at its option at specified redemption prices that would include “make-whole” premiums. Refer to “Note 10 – Notes Payable” for more information.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes are shown in the following table:

Concentration of Risk

The Company’s customers are primarily commercial organizations. Accounts receivable are generally unsecured.

Accounts receivable are due in accordance with payment terms set forth in contracts negotiated with customers. Amounts due from customers are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts are past due, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligations to the Company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are deemed uncollectible.

 

There were no customers who generated revenues greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated total revenues for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.  

 

There were no customers who generated accounts receivable greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.  

The Company is dependent on one vendor, Sanmina Corporation (“Sanmina”), a contract manufacturer with significant operations in Mexico, for the manufacture of subscriber communicators that the Company designs and sells. For the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, approximately $17,388, or 63.5%, and $19,950, or 61.7%, respectively, of the Company’s product sales was generated from the sale of the Company’s core products produced by Sanmina. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, approximately $35,312, or 64.9%, and $39,448, or 63.3%, respectively, of the Company’s product sales was generated from the sale of the Company’s core products produced by Sanmina.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company did not maintain in-orbit insurance coverage for its ORBCOMM Generation 1 or ORBCOMM Generation 2 satellites to address the risk of potential systemic anomalies, failures or catastrophic events affecting its satellite constellation.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined on a weighted average cost basis. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, inventory, net of inventory obsolescence, consisted primarily of finished goods and purchased parts to be utilized by its contract manufacturer totaling $27,240 and $27,701, respectively, and raw materials totaling $6,381 and $6,599, respectively. The Company reviews inventory quantities on hand, evaluates the realizability of inventories and adjusts the carrying value, as necessary, based on forecasted product demand. A provision, recorded in cost of product sales on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, is made for potential losses on slow-moving and obsolete inventories when identified.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

Property and equipment and other long-lived assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company measures recoverability by comparing the carrying amounts of the assets to the projected undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

The Company’s satellite constellation and related assets are evaluated as a single asset group whenever facts or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If indicators of impairment are identified, recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing their carrying amount to the projected cash flows the assets are expected to generate.

Determining whether an impairment has occurred typically requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including the allocation of cash flows to assets or asset groups and, if required, an estimate of fair value for those assets or asset groups.

If a satellite were to fail while in-orbit, the resulting loss would be charged to expense in the period it is determined that the satellite is not recoverable. Refer to “Note 6 – Satellite Network and Other Equipment, Net” for more information.

Warranty Costs

The Company accrues for warranty coverage on product sales estimated at the time of sale based on historical costs to repair or replace products for customers compared to historical product sales. The warranty accrual is included in accrued liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Separately-priced extended warranty coverage is recorded as warranty revenue over the term of the extended warranty coverage and the related warranty costs are recorded as incurred during the coverage period.

Warranty coverage that includes additional services, such as repairs and maintenance of the product, is treated as a separate performance obligation and the related warranty and repairs/maintenance costs are recorded as incurred.

Refer to “Note 8 – Accrued Liabilities” for more information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both finance and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. The Company adopted the guidance prospectively as of January 1, 2019, the date of initial application. As part of the adoption, the Company elected the package of practical expedients, the short-term lease exemption and the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. The Company completed its comprehensive review of its lease portfolio for all lease types and embedded leases throughout each region. Refer to “Note 15 – Leases” for more information.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”), which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. ASU 2017-04 removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation.  Under ASU 2017-04, goodwill impairment will be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.  The adoption of this standard, which will be applied prospectively, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

 

3. Acquisitions

inthinc Technology Solutions, Inc.

On June 9, 2017, pursuant to the asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) entered into by the Company and inthinc, Inc., inthinc Technology Solutions, Inc., tiwi, Inc., inthinc Telematics, Inc., DriveAware, Inc., inthinc Chile, SP and inthinc Investors, L.P. (collectively, “Inthinc”), the Company completed the acquisition of Inthinc for an aggregate consideration of (i) $34,236 in cash on a debt-free, cash-free basis; (ii) issuance of 76,796 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $9.95 per share, which reflected a 20-trading day average price of the Company’s stock ending June 8, 2017; and (iii) additional contingent consideration of up to $25,000, subject to certain operational milestones, payable in stock or a combination of cash and stock at the Company’s election.

Contingent Consideration

Additional consideration was conditionally due to the Inthinc sellers upon achievement of certain financial milestones through June 2019. The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration obligation was determined using Level 3 unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity based on the Company’s own assumptions. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined based on the Company’s estimates using the probability-weighted discounted cash flow approach. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $0 and $2,063 in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets in connection with the contingent consideration. All four financial milestones for this additional consideration were not met. Therefore, the Company recorded a reduction of the contingent liability of $2,063 in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

For the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to the performance-based RSUs of $541 and $364, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to the performance-based RSUs of $1,626 and $867, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, $3,194 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to these RSUs is expected to be recognized through March 2020.

The fair value of the time-based and performance-based RSU awards are based upon the closing stock price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Market Performance Units

The Company grants Market Performance Units (“MPUs”) to its senior executives based on stock price performance over a three-year period measured on December 31 of each year in the performance period. The MPUs will vest in equal installments at the end of each year in the performance period only if the Company satisfies the stock price performance targets and the senior executives continue their employment through the dates the Compensation Committee has determined that the targets have been achieved. The value of the MPUs that will be earned each year ranges up to 15% of each of the senior executives’ base salaries in the year of the grant depending on the Company’s stock price performance target for that year. The value of the MPUs can be paid in either cash or common stock or a combination of cash and common stock, at the Company’s discretion. The MPUs are classified as a liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are revalued at the end of each reporting period based on the awards’ fair value over a three-year period.

As the MPUs contain both performance and service conditions, they have been treated as a series of three separate awards, or tranches, for purposes of recognizing stock-based compensation expense. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a tranche-by-tranche basis over the requisite service period for that specific tranche. The Company estimated the fair value of the MPUs using a Monte Carlo simulation model that used the following assumptions:

5. Net Income (Loss) Attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. Common Stockholders

The Company accounts for earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”) and related guidance, which requires two calculations of EPS to be disclosed: basic and diluted. The numerator in calculating basic and diluted EPS is an amount equal to the net income (loss) attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. common stockholders for the periods presented. The denominator in calculating basic EPS is the weighted average shares outstanding for the respective periods. The denominator in calculating diluted EPS is the weighted average shares outstanding, plus the dilutive effect of stock option grants, unvested SAR and RSU grants and shares of Series A convertible preferred stock, for the respective periods. The following table sets forth the basic and diluted EPS calculations for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

9. Note Payable - Related Party

In connection with the acquisition of a majority interest in Satcom International Group plc in 2005, the Company recorded an indebtedness to OHB Technology A.G. (formerly known as OHB Teledata A.G.), a stockholder of the Company. At each of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the principal balance of the note payable was €1,138, with a carrying value of $1,298. The carrying value was based on the note’s estimated fair value at the time of acquisition. The difference between the carrying value and principal balance was being amortized to interest expense over the six-year estimated life, which ended on September 30, 2011. This note does not bear interest and has no fixed repayment term. Repayment of the note will be made from the distribution profits (as defined in the note agreement) of ORBCOMM Europe LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The note has been classified as long-term, as the Company does not expect any repayments to be required prior to June 30, 2020.

 

 

10. Notes Payable

Senior Secured Notes

On April 10, 2017, the Company issued $250,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.0% senior secured notes due 2024 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 10, 2017, among the Company, certain of its domestic subsidiaries party thereto (the “Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Indenture”). The Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors, and are secured on a first priority basis by (i) pledges of capital stock of certain of the Company’s directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries; and (ii) substantially all of the other property and assets of the Company and the Guarantors, to the extent a first priority security interest is able to be granted or perfected therein, and subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions, and an intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent for the Company’s revolving credit facility described below. Interest payments are due on the Senior Secured Notes semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2017.

19


 

The Company has the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2020, at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. The Company also has the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time before April 1, 2020 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. In addition, at any time before April 1, 2020, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, with the proceeds from certain equity issuances.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various exceptions and baskets as set forth in the Indenture, including the incurrence by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries of indebtedness under potential new credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50,000.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $5,431. For the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, amortization of the debt issuance costs was $194 and $388, respectively.  The Company recorded charges of $5,194 and $10,388 to interest expense on its condensed consolidated statements of operations for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the Senior Secured Notes.

Revolving Credit Facility

 

On December 18, 2017, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan Chase”), as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25,000 for working capital and general corporate purposes and matures on December 18, 2022. The Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at an alternative base rate or an adjusted LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 1.50% in the case of alternative base rate loans and 2.50% in the case of adjusted LIBOR loans. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets under a security agreement among the Company, its subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase, subject to an intercreditor agreement with the indenture trustee for the Senior Secured Notes. The Revolving Credit Facility has no scheduled principal amortization until the maturity date. Subject to the terms set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time prior to the maturity date.

 

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to funding, covenants and events of default. The Revolving Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various baskets as set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

 

At June 30, 2019, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

13. Income Taxes

For the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company’s income tax expense was $1,140 and $1,225, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company’s income tax expense was $1,850 and $2,168, respectively. The decrease in the income tax provision for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily related to the provision to return true-ups for multiple international entity tax returns.  This resulted in an international tax benefit recorded in the period.  This tax benefit was offset by a change in the geographical mix of income, which slightly increased taxable non-U.S. earnings before income taxes when compared to the prior year period.  In addition, the six months ended June 30, 2019 included lower deferred tax expense related to the amortization of goodwill.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company maintained a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets primarily attributable to operations in the United States, as the realization of such assets was not considered more likely than not.

There were no changes to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company does not expect any significant changes to its unrecognized tax positions during the next twelve months.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is involved in various litigation matters involving claims incidental to its business and acquisitions, including employment matters, acquisition related claims, patent infringement and contractual matters, among other issues. While the outcome of any such litigation matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management currently believes that the outcome of these proceedings, including the matters described below, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations or financial condition. The Company records reserves related to legal matters when losses related to such litigation or contingencies are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Joseph Smith v. ORBCOMM Inc.

Joseph Smith filed a complaint on June 3, 2014 against ORBCOMM Inc. and StarTrak Information Technologies LLC in the Eastern District of Texas alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,611,686 (“the ’686 Patent”).  On October 8, 2015, the Company and Joseph Smith entered into a Settlement and Patent Licensing Agreement (the “Smith Settlement Agreement”), which resulted in a dismissal of the pending litigation alleging infringement of the ’686 Patent.  The Smith Settlement Agreement granted an exclusive license and transfer of all rights under the ’686 Patent to the Company in exchange for a one-time payment by the Company of $100 to Mr. Smith and the sharing between Mr. Smith and the Company of any net proceeds from the licensing or enforcement of the ’686 Patent.  

In accordance with the terms of the Smith Settlement Agreement, the Company brought suit against CalAmp Corp. (“CalAmp”) in April 2016, which was settled on April 24, 2017 (the “CalAmp Settlement”).  Pursuant to the CalAmp Settlement, no payments were made by either the Company or CalAmp and each of the Company and CalAmp granted the other royalty-free licenses and covenants not to sue for the patents-in-suit as well as general releases in order to resolve the litigation between CalAmp and the Company.  

Mr. Smith claims that the Company received significant non-monetary consideration in the CalAmp Settlement (by virtue of the releases and covenants not to sue for the counterclaims and countersuits brought by CalAmp) in excess of the costs incurred by the Company to pursue CalAmp and is entitled to 50% of the value of such claimed non-monetary net proceeds under the Smith Settlement Agreement.  On February 22, 2019, Mr. Smith filed a Demand for Arbitration asserting these claims, for an amount of $4,000 plus attorney’s fees.  The Company believes these claims by Mr. Smith to be without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously.  The arbitration hearing is scheduled for August 26-29, 2019.

The Company received a letter dated January 3, 2017 from Timothy Slifkin, containing a Demand for Arbitration asserting fraudulent misrepresentations and various contractual claims based on his employment with StarTrak Information Technologies LLC and seeking a declaratory judgment establishing his ownership of the stock appreciation rights that were forfeited as a result of his termination of employment, with a total monetary claim against of the Company of $1,000, plus attorney’s fees and punitive damages.  The Company believes the claims in the Demand for Arbitration to be without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously.  The Company has filed a motion for summary judgment and the arbitration hearing has been scheduled for the end of September 2019.

Airtime Credits

In 2001, in connection with the organization of ORBCOMM Europe and the reorganization of the ORBCOMM business in Europe, the Company agreed to grant certain country representatives in Europe approximately $3,736 in airtime credits. The Company has not recorded the airtime credits as a liability for the following reasons: (i) the Company has no obligation to pay the unused airtime credits if they are not utilized and (ii) the airtime credits are earned by the country representatives only when the Company generates revenue from the country representatives. The airtime credits have no expiration date. Accordingly, the Company is recording airtime credits as services are rendered and these airtime credits are recorded net of revenues from the country representatives. For both the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, airtime credits used totaled approximately $7. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, airtime credits used totaled approximately $15 and $14, respectively. As of June 30, 2019 and 2018, unused credits granted by the Company were approximately $1,933 and $1,978, respectively.

15. Leases

Lessee

The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for land, office space, data centers and storage facilities, as well as office equipment and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of less than one year to 14 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to five years, and some of which include options to terminate the lease within one year. The Company considered these options in determining the lease term used to establish the Company’s right-of use assets and lease liabilities. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The operating lease ROU assets also include any lease payments made in advance of lease commencements and exclude lease incentives. The lease terms used in the calculations of the operating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities include options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise those options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally not accounted for separately.

Components of lease expense are as follows:

Lessor

Although most of the Company’s revenue from its product sales comes from the sale of subscriber communicators, the Company also leases some subscriber communicators to certain customers. The Company determines the existence of a lease when the customer controls the use of the identified product for a period of time defined in the lease agreement. The Company’s leases range in duration between three to five years, with payment generally collected in monthly installments. Refer to “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for more information.

The Company classifies these leases as sales-type leases and recognizes revenue and cost of sales upon delivery or installation, depending on the specific contractual terms. The Company’s leases include certain termination fees, as defined in the lease agreements, and do not typically include purchase rights at the end of the lease.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, accounting for business combinations, goodwill, intangible assets, satellite network and other equipment, long-lived assets, capitalized development costs, income taxes, warranty costs, loss contingencies and the value of securities underlying stock-based compensation. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from our estimates and could have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates see Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report. Except for Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” as noted in “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “Note 15 – Leases” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during 2019.  

Revenues

We derive service revenues primarily from monthly fees for industrial IoT connectivity services that consist of subscriber-based and recurring monthly usage fees for each subscriber communicator or SIM activated for use on our satellite network, as well as other satellite networks and cellular wireless networks that we resell to our customers (i.e., our MCPs, MCAs and direct customers). Usage fees are generally based upon the data transmitted by a customer and the overall number of subscriber communicators and/or SIMs activated by each customer and whether we provide services through our value-added portal. Service revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, as services are rendered, or on a cash basis, if collection from the customer is not reasonably assured at the time the service is provided. We also generate AIS service revenues from subscription-based services supplying AIS data to customers and resellers, as well as data analytic service revenues from monthly subscription-based services supplying analytical data to our customers. In addition, we earn service revenues from extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period, typically one year; installation services; royalty fees from third parties for the use of our proprietary communications protocol, recognized at a point in time when the third party notifies us of the units it has manufactured and a unique serial number is assigned to each unit; and fees from providing engineering, technical and management support services to customers.

We derive product sales primarily from sales of industrial IoT telematics devices, modems and cellular wireless SIMs (for our terrestrial-communication services) to our resellers (i.e., our MCPs and MCAs) and direct customers. Revenues generated from product sales are either recognized when the products are shipped or when customers accept the product depending on the specific contractual terms. Shipping costs billed to customers are included in product sales and the related costs are included as cost of product sales.

Revenues generated from leasing arrangements of subscriber communicators are recognized using the estimated selling price for each deliverable in the arrangement.  Product and installation revenues associated with these arrangements are recognized upon shipment or installation of the subscriber communicator, depending on the specific contractual terms.  Service and warranty revenues are recognized on an accrual basis, as services are rendered, or on a cash basis, if collection from the customer is not reasonably assured at the time the service is provided.

26


 

Amounts received prior to the performance of services under customer contracts are recognized as deferred revenues and revenue recognition is deferred until such time that all revenue recognition criteria have been met.

The table below presents our revenues for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, together with the percentage of total revenue represented by each revenue category:

We derive recurring service revenues from monthly fees from industrial IoT connectivity services that consist of subscriber-based, recurring monthly usage fees for each subscriber communicator or SIM activated for use on our satellite network, other satellite networks, and cellular wireless networks that we resell to our customers and AIS service revenues from subscription-based services supplying AIS data to customers and resellers. In addition, we derive recurring service revenues from extended warranty service agreements extending beyond the initial warranty period of one year, royalty fees from third parties for the use of our proprietary communications protocol charged on a one-time basis for each subscriber communicator connected to our industrial IoT data communications system and activations of subscriber communicators and SIMs. We derive other service revenues from installation services, fees from providing engineering, technical and management support services to customers and the sale of software licenses to our customers.

 

The increases in service revenues for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily due to revenue generated from growth in billable subscriber communicators across our services. As of June 30, 2019, we had approximately 2,512,000 billable subscriber communicators compared to approximately 2,220,000 billable subscriber communicators as of June 30, 2018, an increase of 13.2%.

We were notified that our program with Maersk Lines, through our contract with AT&T Services, Inc., will not be extended and will expire on December 31, 2019. This program provides us with total recurring service revenues of approximately $3.0 million annually for engineering support services, with additional deferred revenue of approximately $0.2 million recognized in the second quarter of 2019. The contract and the accounting of revenues was assumed as part of the WAM Technologies, LLC acquisition in 2015. The program also accounts for approximately 400,000 billable subscribers, which will cease to have recurring service revenues associated

27


 

with them. We will report billable subscribers both with and without these subscribers through the end of 2019, and without these subscribers beginning in 2020.

Service revenue growth can be impacted by the customary lag between subscriber communicator activations and recognition of service revenue from these units, as well as the mix of new subscriber activations in the period.

We derive product sales primarily from sales of industrial IoT subscriber communicators, including telematics devices, modems and cellular wireless SIMs, to our resellers and direct customers, as well as through leasing arrangements of subscriber communicators.

 

The decreases in product sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily due to timing of shipments associated with our existing and new customers during the 2019 period and the inclusion of a significant product deployment during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Cost of services is comprised of expenses to operate our network, such as payroll and related costs, including stock-based compensation, installation costs, and usage fees to third-party networks, but excludes depreciation and amortization discussed below. The increase in cost of services for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to the costs associated with the growth in billable subscriber communicators across our services. The decrease in cost of services for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to the inclusion of nonrecurring installation costs associated with significant product deployments during the quarter ended June 30, 2018, offset, in part, by the costs associated with the growth in billable subscriber communicators across our services.

Cost of product sales includes the purchase price of subscriber communicators and SIMs sold, costs of warranty obligations, shipping charges, as well as operational costs to fulfill customer orders, including costs for employees and inventory management. The decreases in cost of product sales for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, were primarily due to the decrease in product sales and the lower costs associated with new product offerings and the mix of product shipments, compared to the prior year periods.

The increases in depreciation and amortization for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year periods, were primarily due to higher depreciation associated with our capitalized costs attributable to the design, development and enhancements of our products and services sold to our customers and our internally developed software.

Acquisition-related and integration costs include professional services expenses and identifiable integration costs directly attributable to our acquisitions. The decreases in acquisition-related and integration costs for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year periods, reflect lower acquisition and integration activity for the 2019 periods.

The increases in other expense for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year periods, was primarily due to increased other income (expense) related to the change in foreign currency translation during the period.  We believe our foreign exchange exposure is limited as a majority of our revenue is collected in U.S. dollars.  

Income Taxes

For the quarter ended June 30, 2019, our income tax expense was $1.1 million, compared to $1.2 million for the prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, our income tax expense was $1.9 million, compared to $2.2 million for the prior year period. The decreases in the income tax provision for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily related to the provision to return true-ups for multiple international entity tax returns.  This resulted in an international tax benefit recorded in these periods.  This tax benefit was offset by a change in the geographical mix of income, which slightly increased taxable non-U.S. earnings before income taxes when compared to the prior year periods.  In addition, the six months ended June 30, 2019 included lower deferred tax expense related to the amortization of goodwill.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we maintained a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets primarily attributable to operations in the United States, as the realization of such assets was not considered more likely than not.

Net Loss

For the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we had a net loss of $6.4 million compared to a net loss of $7.1 million in the prior year period, primarily due to decreased costs associated with our products and services and lower SG&A expenses, as described above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had a net loss of $11.8 million compared to a net loss of $17.2 million in the prior year period, primarily due to decreased costs associated with our products and services and lower SG&A expenses, as described above.

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests relate to earnings and losses attributable to noncontrolling shareholders.

Net Loss Attributable to ORBCOMM Inc.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we had a net loss attributable to our company of $6.4 million compared to a net loss of $7.2 million in the prior year period.  For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had a net loss attributable to our company of $11.9 million compared to a net loss of $17.3 million in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our liquidity requirements arise from our working capital needs, our obligations to make scheduled payments of interest on our indebtedness and our need to fund capital expenditures to support our current operations and to facilitate growth and expansion. We have financed our operations and expansion with cash flows from operating activities, sales of our common stock through public offerings and private placements of debt. At June 30, 2019, we have an accumulated deficit of $204.4 million. Our primary source of liquidity consists of cash and cash equivalents totaling $54.8 million at June 30, 2019 and an unused $25.0 million Revolving Credit Facility under the Revolving Credit Agreement, as described below, available for use for working capital and general business purposes, which we believe will be sufficient to provide working capital, make interest payments and make capital expenditures to support operations and facilitate growth and expansion for the next twelve months.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $10.9 million, resulting from a net loss of $11.8 million and cash used by working capital of $5.6 million, offset by non-cash items including $25.2 million for depreciation and amortization and $3.7 million for stock-based compensation. Working capital activities primarily consisted of an increase of $2.6 million in accounts receivable relating to timing of receivables, an increase of $2.6 million in prepaid expenses and other assets and a decrease of $2.4 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily related to timing of payments, offset, in part, by an increase of $1.6 million in other liabilities.

Cash used in our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $12.5 million, resulting from a net loss of $17.2 million, offset by non-cash items, including $24.1 million for depreciation and amortization and $3.4 million for stock-based compensation. These non-cash add-backs were largely offset by a working capital use of cash of $22.6 million. Working capital activities primarily consisted of a decrease of $13.4 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities primarily related to timing of payments, an increase of $8.4 million in accounts receivable relating to timing of receivables, an increase of $2.3 million in inventories, offset, in part, by a decrease of $1.9 million in prepaid expenses and other assets.

Investing Activities

Cash used in our investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $10.6 million, resulting from capital expenditures during the period.

Cash used in our investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $11.8 million, resulting from capital expenditures during the period.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by our financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $0.6 million, due to proceeds from the sale of common stock under the employee stock purchase plan.

Cash provided by our financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $28.6 million, primarily due to proceeds of $28.0 million received from our public offering of common stock completed in April 2018.

Future Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, along with expected cash flows from operating activities and additional funds available under our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient over the next 12 months to provide working capital, cover interest payments on our debt facilities and fund growth initiatives and capital expenditures.

 

On April 10, 2017, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2024. The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of April 10, 2017, among us, certain of our domestic subsidiaries party thereto (the “Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent. The Senior Secured Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors, and are secured on a first priority basis by (i) pledges of capital stock of certain of our directly- and indirectly-owned subsidiaries; and (ii) substantially all of our and our Guarantors’ other property and assets, to the extent a first priority security interest is able to be granted or perfected therein, and subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions, and an intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent for our Revolving Credit Facility described below. Interest payments are due on the Senior Secured Notes semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2017.

 

31


 

We have the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time on or after April 1, 2020, at redemption prices set forth in the Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. We also have the option to redeem some or all of the Senior Secured Notes at any time before April 1, 2020 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. In addition, at any time before April 1, 2020, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, with the proceeds from certain equity issuances.

 

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets; subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various exceptions and baskets as set forth in the Indenture, including the incurrence by us and our restricted subsidiaries of indebtedness under potential new credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $50 million.

On December 18, 2017, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $25.0 million for working capital and general corporate purposes and matures on December 18, 2022. The Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at an alternative base rate or an adjusted LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 1.50% in the case of alternative base rate loans and 2.50% in the case of adjusted LIBOR loans. The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our and our subsidiaries’ assets under a Security Agreement among the Company, the applicable subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., subject to an intercreditor agreement with the indenture trustee for the Senior Secured Notes. The Revolving Credit Facility has no scheduled principal amortization until the maturity date. Subject to the terms set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement, we may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility at any time prior to the maturity date.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains covenants that, among other things, limit us and our restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends, make other distributions or repurchase or redeem capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain indebtedness; (iv) make loans and investments; (v) sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of assets; (vi) incur or permit to exist certain liens; (vii) enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, amalgamate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets, subject, in all cases, to certain specified exceptions. Such limitations have various baskets as set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

At June 30, 2019, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

On April 10, 2018, we completed a public offering of 3,450,000 shares of our common stock, including 450,000 shares sold upon exercise in full of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares at a price of $8.60 per share. We received net proceeds of approximately $28.0 million after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions and offering costs.

On April 13, 2018, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC, registering an unspecified amount of debt and/or equity securities that we may offer in one or more offerings on terms to be determined at the time of sale. The shelf registration statement was automatically effective upon filing and superseded and replaced our previous shelf registration statement declared effective on April 14, 2015, which was due to expire on April 14, 2018.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is defined as earnings attributable to ORBCOMM Inc. before interest income (expense), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and loss on debt extinguishment. We believe EBITDA is useful to our management and investors in evaluating our operating performance because it is one of the primary measures we use to evaluate the economic productivity of our operations, including our ability to obtain and maintain our customers, our ability to operate our business effectively, the efficiency of our employees and the profitability associated with their performance. It also helps our management and investors to meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period on a consistent basis by removing the impact of our financing transactions and the depreciation and amortization impact of capital investments from our operating results. In addition, our management uses EBITDA in presentations to our board of directors to enable it to have the same measurement of operating performance used by management and for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget. We also

32


 

believe Adjusted EBITDA, defined as EBITDA adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, noncontrolling interests, impairment loss, non-capitalized satellite launch and in-orbit insurance, and acquisition-related and integration costs, is useful to investors to evaluate our core operating results and financial performance because it excludes items that are significant non-cash or non-recurring expenses reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. While we consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be important measures of operating performance, they should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, or superior to, net loss or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different than EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA measures presented by other companies.

Non-GAAP Gross Margin

Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin is defined as Non-GAAP Service gross profit divided by service revenues. Non-GAAP Service gross profit is defined as service revenues, minus cost of services (including depreciation and amortization expense) plus depreciation and amortization expense. Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin is defined as Non-GAAP Product gross profit divided by product sales. Non-GAAP Product gross profit is defined as product sales, minus cost of product sales (including depreciation and amortization expense) plus depreciation and amortization expense. We believe that Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin are useful to evaluate and compare the results of our operations from period to period on a consistent basis by removing the depreciation and amortization impact of capital investments from our operating results.

Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin are not performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  While we consider Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin to be important measures of operating performance, they should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different than Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin and Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin measures presented by other companies.

GAAP Service Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 55.3% in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 56.6% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 66.0% in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 67.8% in the prior year period. This decrease was primarily due to a positive one-time adjustment recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2018. GAAP Service Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 55.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 52.2% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Service Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 66.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 63.5% in the prior year period. The aforementioned improvements were due to bringing onboard new subscribers at higher margins and limiting product installations at negative margins in the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the prior year period.

GAAP Product Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 25.8% in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 20.0% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 28.4% in the second quarter of 2019, compared to 22.1% in the prior year period. GAAP Product Gross Margin, inclusive of depreciation and amortization expense, was 26.4% in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 19.0% in the prior year period. Non-GAAP Product Gross Margin, excluding depreciation and amortization expense, was 29.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to 21.8% in the prior year period. The aforementioned improvements were primarily due to a better mix of higher-margin products shipped in greater volumes in the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the prior year periods.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2019, there have been no material changes in our contractual obligations previously disclosed in our Annual Report.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

As of June 30, 2019, there have been no material changes in our assessment of our sensitivity to market risk, as previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks” in our Annual Report.

Concentration of Credit Risk

There were no customers who generated revenues greater than 10% of the Company’s consolidated total revenues for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Item 4. Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of the Company’s Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of June 30, 2019. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We reviewed our internal control over financial reporting at June 30, 2019. As a result of the acquisitions of inthinc, inc. (“Inthinc”) in June 2017 and Blue Tree Systems Limited (“Blue Tree”) in October 2017, we continue to integrate certain business processes and systems of Inthinc and Blue Tree. Accordingly, certain changes have been made and will continue to be made to our internal controls over financial reporting until such time as this integration is complete.

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in an evaluation thereof that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2019, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

 

We are involved in various litigation matters involving claims incidental to our business and acquisitions, including employment matters, acquisition related claims, patent infringement and contractual matters, among other issues. Management currently believes that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. We record reserves related to legal matters when losses related to such litigation or contingencies are both probable and reasonably estimable.  

See “Note 14 – Commitments and Contingencies” to our notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2019 included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of our significant legal proceedings, which is incorporated by reference herein.
