1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND COMPANY CONDITIONS

 

Nature of Operations

CUI Global Inc. (CUI Global or "the Company") is a platform company composed of two segments, the Power and Electromechanical segment and the Energy segment, along with an "Other" category.

 

The Power and Electromechanical segment consists of the wholly owned subsidiaries: CUI, Inc. (CUI), based in Tualatin, Oregon; CUI Japan, based in Tokyo, Japan; CUI-Canada, based in Toronto, Canada; and the entity holding the corporate building, CUI Properties. All three operating subsidiaries are providers of power and electromechanical components for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).

 

The Power and Electromechanical segment aggregates its product offerings into two categories:  power solutions  - including external and embedded ac-dc power supplies, dc-dc converters and basic digital point of load modules, and offering a technology architecture that addresses power and related accessories; and  components  - including connectors, speakers, buzzers, and industrial control solutions including encoders and sensors. These offerings provide a technology architecture that addresses power and related accessories to industries as broadly ranging as telecommunications, consumer electronics, medical and defense.

 

The Company’s Energy segment consists of the Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. subsidiary (Orbital-UK) and the Orbital Gas Systems, North America, Inc. subsidiary, collectively referred to as "Orbital." Orbital has developed a portfolio of products, services and resources to offer a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries. Its proprietary VE® Technology enhances the capability and speed of the Company's GasPT® Technology. VE Technology provides a superior method of penetrating the gas flow without the associated vortex vibration, thereby making it a ‘‘stand-alone’’ product for thermal sensing (thermowells) and trace-element sampling.

 

The Other category represents the remaining activities that are not included as part of the other reportable segments and primarily represents corporate activity.

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information, which includes condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

It is management's opinion that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made, which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the remaining quarters or year ending December 31, 2019.

 

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used to review the Company’s Goodwill, impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition on cost-to-cost-method type contracts, inventory valuation, trading securities, warranty reserves, refund liabilities/returns allowances, valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Company Conditions

The continued delays in shipment of GasPTs on a significant project due to governmental delays and the related slower than expected acceptance of this new disruptive technology has caused a delay in the Company's expected profitability.

 

The Company had losses of $3.0 million and cash used in operating activities of $2.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, the Company's accumulated deficit is $124.1 million.

 

Management believes the Company's present cash flows will not enable it to meet its obligations for twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. However, management has developed a plan to address this issue. The plan included obtaining a new long-term financing in the form of a new line of credit and utilizing the cash received from the Company's recent sale/leaseback of the Company's Tualatin headquarters. As part of this plan the Company has obtained a new line of credit from Bank of America for a $10.0 million credit facility, which closed on April 18, 2019. For more information on the Company's new line of credit, see Note 20 Subsequent Events. Including the Company's cash balance, the Company further has $12.4 million of positive working capital primarily related to trade accounts receivable and the Company's inventory less current liabilities that the Company will manage in the next twelve months. Considering the above factors and the new line of credit, management believes it is probable that management’s plans will be achieved and will enable the Company to meet its obligations for the twelve-month period from the date the financial statements are available to be issued.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - UPDATE

 

Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" within Item 8 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019. Significant changes to the Company's accounting policies as a result of adopting Topic 842 are discussed below:

 

 

Adoption of new accounting standards

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (“the new lease standard” or “ASC 842”) using the transition method of adoption. Under the transition method of adoption, comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the standards in effect for those periods. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed The Company to carry forward the historical lease classification. The impact of adopting the new standard primarily relates to the recognition of a lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and current and non-current lease obligations on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease ROU assets and obligations are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company cannot readily determine the rate implicit in the lease, the Company uses the Company's incremental borrowing rate determined by country of lease origin based on the anticipated lease term as determined at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also excludes any accrued lease payments and unamortized lease incentives.

 

As of March 31, 2019, $7.4 million was included with non-current assets, $1.0 million with current liabilities and $6.6 million with non-current liabilities, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a result of the new lease standard. The change in right of use assets and lease obligations is reflected in the change in operating assets and liabilities in the Cash Flows from Operating Activities section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Principal portion of financing lease payments are included in the Financing section of the cash flow. There was no impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations or Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Loss. Additionally, as part of the January 1, 2019 adjustment to transition to the new standard, the Company recorded a $2.9 million adjustment to accumulated deficit to recognize the deferred gain that was originally recorded as part of the December 2018 sale/leaseback of the Tualatin headquarters.

 

In August 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, published Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, or DUSTR, which adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements that have become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded, in light of other SEC disclosure requirements, GAAP, or changes in the information environment. While most of the DUSTR amendments eliminate outdated or duplicative disclosure requirements, the final rule amends the interim financial statement requirements to include a reconciliation of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) in the notes or as a separate statement for each period for which a statement of comprehensive income (loss) is required to be filed. The new interim reconciliation of changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit) is included herein as a separate statement.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07,  Compensation-Stock   Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting  ("ASU 2018-07"). These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. The guidance will be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that year. The Company implemented the standard as of January 1, 2019. There was no effect of this change in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2019.

 

 

 

3. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

 

Power and Electromechanical segment

The Power and Electromechanical segment generates its revenue from two categories of products: power solutions  - including external and embedded ac-dc power supplies, dc-dc converters and basic digital point of load modules, and offering a technology architecture that addresses power and related accessories; and  components  - including connectors, speakers, buzzers, and industrial control solutions including encoders and sensors. These offerings provide a technology architecture that addresses power and related accessories to industries as broadly ranging as telecommunications, consumer electronics, medical and defense. The production and delivery of these products are considered single performance obligations. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation and this occurs upon shipment and ownership transfer of the Company's products to the Company's customers at a point in time.

 

Energy segment

The Energy segment subsidiaries, collectively referred to as Orbital, generate their revenue from a portfolio of products, services and resources that offer a diverse range of personalized gas engineering solutions to the gas utilities, power generation, emissions, manufacturing and automotive industries.

 

Orbital accounts for a majority of its contract revenue proportionately over time. For the Company's performance obligations satisfied over time, the Company recognizes revenue by measuring the progress toward complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion can be either an input method or an output method and requires judgment based on the nature of the goods or services to be provided.

 

For the Company's construction contracts, revenue is generally recognized over time as the Company's performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls. The Company's fixed price construction projects generally use a cost-to-cost input method to measure the Company's progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as the Company believes it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation.

 

The timing of revenue recognition for Energy products also depends on the payment terms of the contract, as the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to us. For those contracts which the Company has a right to payment for performance completed to date at all times throughout the Company's performance, inclusive of a cancellation, the Company recognizes revenue over time. As discussed above, these performance obligations use a cost-to-cost input method to measure the Company's progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation as the Company believes it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer. However, for those contracts for which the Company does not have a right, at all times, to payment for performance completed to date, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer.

 

For the Company's service contracts, revenue is also generally recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company's performance as the Company performs the service. For the Company's fixed price service contracts with specified service periods, revenue is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over such service period when the Company's inputs are expended evenly, and the customer receives and consumes the benefits of the Company's performance throughout the contract term.

 

For certain of the Company's revenue streams, such as call-out repair and service work, and outage services, that are performed under time and materials contracts, the Company's progress towards complete satisfaction of such performance obligations is measured using an output method as the customer receives and consumes the benefits of the Company's performance completed to date.

 

 

Due to uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, it is possible that estimates of costs to complete a performance obligation will be revised in the near-term. For those performance obligations for which revenue is recognized using a cost-to-cost input method, changes in total estimated costs, and related progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation, are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions to the estimates are made. When the current estimate of total costs for a performance obligation indicate a loss, a provision for the entire estimated loss on the unsatisfied performance obligation is made in the period in which the loss becomes evident.

 

Product-type contracts (for example, sale of GasPt units) for which revenue does not qualify to be recognized over time are recognized at a point in time. Revenues from warranty and maintenance activities are recognized ratably over the term of the warranty and maintenance period.

 

Accounts Receivable, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Accounts receivable are recognized in the period when the Company's right to consideration is unconditional. Accounts receivable are recognized net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the likelihood of realization of receivables.

 

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contract assets include unbilled amounts from the Company's construction projects when revenue recognized under the cost-to-cost measure of progress exceed the amounts invoiced to the Company's customers, as the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of the Company's contracts. Such amounts are recoverable from the Company's customers based upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units or completion of a contract. Also included in contract assets are amounts the Company seeks or will seek to collect from customers or others for errors or changes in contract specifications or design, contract change orders or modifications in dispute or unapproved as to both scope and/or price or other customer-related causes of unanticipated additional contract costs (claims and unapproved change orders). The Company's contract assets do not include capitalized costs to obtain and fulfill a contract. Contract assets are generally classified as current within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Contract liabilities from the Company's construction contracts occur when amounts invoiced to the Company's customers exceed revenues recognized under the cost-to-cost measure of progress. Contract liabilities additionally include advanced payments from the Company's customers on certain contracts. Contract liabilities decrease as the Company recognizes revenue from the satisfaction of the related performance obligation and are recorded as either current or long-term, depending upon when the Company expects to recognize such revenue.

 

 

Activity in the current contract liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was as follows:

 

(in thousands)		Three Months Ended March 31, 2019				Three Months Ended March 31, 2018
Current contract liabilities - January 1		$	2,226			$	4,661
Long-term contract liabilities - January 1 (1)			129				84
Total contract liabilities - January 1		$	2,355			$	4,745
Total contract liabilities - January 1		$	2,355			$	4,745
Contract additions, net			1,033				1,279
Revenue recognized			(813	)			(908	)
Translation			35				146
Total contract liabilities - March 31		$	2,610			$	5,262
Current contract liabilities - March 31		$	2,453			$	5,168
Long-term contract liabilities - March 31 (1)			157				94
Total contract liabilities - March 31		$	2,610			$	5,262

 

⁽¹⁾ Long-term contract liabilities are included in Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Refund Liabilities and Corresponding Inventory Adjustment

Refund liabilities primarily represent estimated future new product introduction returns and estimated future scrap returns. Future new product returns are based on a percent of current inventory of newly introduced products held by the Company's distributor customers. The liability for estimated returns of newly introduced product is reversed to revenue as the inventory is sold. Future scrap returns are based on a percentage of total revenues. In addition to the refund liabilities recorded for future returns, the Company also records an adjustment to inventory and corresponding adjustment to cost of revenue for the Company's right to recover products from customers upon settling the refund liability.

 

Performance Obligations

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price of firm orders for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts. As of March 31, 2019, the Company's remaining performance obligations are generally expected to be filled within the next 12 months.

 

Any quarterly adjustments to net revenues, cost of revenues, and the related impact to operating income are recognized as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance, and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual performance obligations, if the Company determines the Company will be successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule and cost aspects of those performance obligations. Likewise, these adjustments may result in a decrease in operating income if the Company determines the Company will not be successful in mitigating these risks. Changes in estimates of net revenues, cost of revenues and the related impact to operating income are recognized quarterly on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation's percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of the Company's performance obligations. For separately priced extended warranty or product maintenance performance obligations, when estimates of total costs to be incurred on the performance obligation exceed total estimates of revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire loss on the performance obligation is recognized in the period the loss is determined.

 

 

Performance Obligations Satisfied Over Time

To determine the proper revenue recognition method for contracts for the Company's Energy segment, the Company evaluates whether a single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to separate the single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period.

 

For most of the Company's contracts, the customer contracts with the Company to provide a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability (even if that single project results in the delivery of multiple units). Hence, the entire contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. Less commonly, however, the Company may promise to provide distinct goods or services within a contract in which case the Company separates the contract into more than one performance obligation. 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 standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company infrequently sells standard products with observable standalone sales. In cases where the Company does, the observable standalone sales are used to determine the standalone selling price. More frequently, the Company sells a customized customer specific solution, and in these cases the Company typically uses the expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

 

Performance Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time

Revenue from goods and services transferred to customers at a single point in time accounted for 81% and 82% of revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The majority of the Company's revenue recognized at a point in time is in the Company's Power and Electromechanical segment. Revenue on these contracts is recognized when the product is shipped and the customer takes ownership of the product. Determination of ownership and control transfer is determined by shipping terms delineated on the customer purchase orders.

 

Variable Consideration

The nature of the Company's contracts gives rise to several types of variable consideration, including new product returns and scrap returns allowances primarily in the Company's Power and Electromechanical segment. In rare instances in the Company's Energy segment, the Company includes in the Company's contract estimates additional revenue for submitted contract modifications or claims against the customer when the Company believes the Company has an enforceable right to the modification or claim, and the amount can be estimated reliably and its realization is probable. In evaluating these criteria, the Company considers the contractual/legal basis for the claim, the cause of any additional costs incurred, the reasonableness of those costs and the objective evidence available to support the claim. The Company includes new product introduction and scrap return estimates in the Company's calculation of net revenue when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the returns. These estimates are based on historical return experience, anticipated returns and the Company's best judgment at the time. These amounts are included in the Company's calculation of net revenue recorded for the Company's contracts and the associated remaining performance obligations.

5. GOODWILL AND INDEFINITE-LIVED INTANGIBLES

 

The Company tests for impairment of Indefinite-lived intangibles and Goodwill in the second quarter of each year and when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of Goodwill exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. The Company’s qualitative assessment of impairment for indefinite-lived assets at May 31, 2018, followed the guidance in ASC 350-30-35-18A and 18B and determined there was no impairment of indefinite-lived intangibles at that time.

 

Under current accounting guidance, CUI Global is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The guidance includes a number of factors to consider in conducting the qualitative assessment. The Company tests for Goodwill impairment in the second quarter of each year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable.

 

As detailed in ASC 350-20-35-3A, in performing its testing for impairment of Goodwill as of May 31, 2018, management completed a qualitative analysis to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including Goodwill. To complete the qualitative review, management follows the steps in ASC 350-20-35-3C to evaluate the fair values of the Goodwill and considers all known events and circumstances that might trigger an impairment of Goodwill.

 

During the Company's review of Goodwill as of May 31, 2018, the Company determined that there were indicators present to suggest that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Orbital-UK reporting unit was less than its carrying amount.

 

The significant changes for the Orbital-UK reporting unit subsequent to the most recent impairment test performed as of December 31, 2017 included a decline in the 2018 actual revenue, operating income and cash flows compared to prior forecasts for the same period and a negative change in the 2018 forecasted revenue, operating income and cash flows for the remainder of the year due in part to the longer than expected temporary halt in shipping of its GasPT product to a major customer in Italy and market uncertainty due to the continuing effects of Brexit.

 

To test the Orbital-UK reporting unit for impairment as of May 31, 2018, the Company used a quantitative test. The Company estimated the fair value of the Orbital-UK reporting unit using a blend of a market approach and an income approach, which was deemed to be the most indicative of fair value in an orderly transaction between market participants. Under the income approach, the Company determined fair value based on estimated future cash flows of the Orbital-UK reporting unit discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, reflecting the overall level of inherent risk of the Orbital-UK reporting unit and the rate of return an outside investor would expect to earn. The Company based its cash flow projections for the Orbital-UK reporting unit using a forecast of cash flows and a terminal value developed by capitalizing an assumed stabilized cash flow figure. The forecast and related assumptions were derived from an updated financial forecast prepared during the second quarter of 2018. At this time, a key assumption related to the recoverability of the Orbital-UK reporting unit Goodwill is the resumption of delivery of GasPT product to one of the Company's major customers and continued strengthening of the Company's integration revenues. Under the market approach, appropriate valuation multiples were derived from the historical operating data of selected guideline companies. The valuation multiples were evaluated and adjusted based on the strengths and weaknesses of the Company relative to the selected guideline companies and the multiple was then applied to the appropriate operating data of the Company to arrive at an indication of fair market value. As a result of the analysis, the Company concluded that the carrying value of the Orbital-UK reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value. The quantitative test for the Orbital-UK reporting unit resulted in an impairment for the Orbital-UK reporting unit, and the Company recorded a Goodwill impairment charge of $1.3 million during the second quarter of 2018.

 

 

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company determined there were indicators present to suggest that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the Orbital-UK reporting unit was less than its carrying amount. The significant changes for the Orbital-UK reporting unit subsequent to the annual Goodwill impairment test performed as of May 31, 2018 were driven by a slower recovery in the Energy segment than originally forecasted. Actual GasPT revenue continued to lag behind forecasted revenue as acceptance of the technology continued to be slower than anticipated and delays associated with existing customer contracts that have not yet resumed. This slower than expected recovery, led to lower 2018 Energy segment revenue, operating income and cash flows than originally forecasted.

 

To test the Orbital-UK reporting unit for impairment, the Company used a quantitative test similar to the one used at May 31, 2018 with updated financial forecasts and assumptions based on the information available at December 31, 2018. As a result of the analysis, the Company concluded that the carrying value of the Orbital-UK reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value. The quantitative test for the Orbital-UK reporting unit resulted in an impairment for the Orbital-UK reporting unit, and the Company recorded a Goodwill impairment charge of $3.1 million during the fourth quarter of 2018, which was a write-off of the remaining Energy segment Goodwill. In addition, the reporting units in the Power and Electromechanical segment were also tested for impairment due to the overall decrease in market capitalization experienced in 2018.

 

As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there was Goodwill remaining for CUI Inc., CUI-Canada and CUI-Japan reporting units, which are included in the Power and Electromechanical segment.

 

The carrying value of Goodwill and the activity for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are as follows:

 

(in thousands)		Power and Electro - Mechanical				Energy				Other				Total
Balance, December 31, 2018		$	13,089			$	—			$	—			$	13,089
Balance, March 31, 2019		$	13,089			$	—			$	—			$	13,089

 

 

6. INVESTMENTS

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, CUI Global's 8.5% ownership investment in Test Products International, Inc. ("TPI"), recognized under the cost method, was exchanged for a note receivable from TPI of $0.4 million ($0.3 million balance at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018), which was the carrying value of the investment, earning interest at 5% per annum, due June 30, 2019. The Company recorded $4 thousand of interest income in both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The interest receivable is settled on a quarterly basis via a non-cash offset against the finders-fee royalties earned by TPI on GasPT sales. Any remaining finders-fee royalties balance is offset against the note receivable quarterly. CUI Global reviewed the note receivable for non-collectability as of March 31, 2019 and concluded that no allowance was necessary. For more details on this investment see Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting policies to CUI Global's financial statements filed in Item 8 of the Company's latest Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019.

 

During 2018, CUI Global made investments of $0.7 million in convertible notes receivable with Virtual Power Systems (“VPS”) to support the two companies’ continued collaboration and development of industry transforming Software Defined Power technologies. The notes accrued interest at 2% per annum and the interest was to compound annually. Unless converted into shares earlier, principal and accrued interest was to convert automatically on the maturity date (October 27, 2019) into shares of VPS common stock at the then current fair market value.

 

On March 30, 2019, the Company converted its notes receivable into common stock of VPS. In addition, the Company contributed $0.3 million of cash and $2.5 million of other assets, as well as $1.8 million of liabilities assumed. In return, the Company acquired a 21.4% ownership share of VPS. Based on current accounting guidance, the Company will record its share of VPS's income or loss under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, results will not be consolidated, but the Company will record 21.4% of the profit or loss of VPS as an addition to or a subtraction from the VPS investment asset. The VPS investment basis at March 31, 2019 was $5.3 million as reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

 

 

7. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company uses various derivative instruments including forward currency contracts, and interest rate swaps to manage certain exposures. These instruments are entered into under the Company’s corporate risk management policy to minimize exposure and are not for speculative trading purposes. The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings. The Company has limited involvement with derivative instruments and does not trade them. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company had an interest rate swap, which had a maturity date of ten years from the date of inception, and was used to minimize the interest rate risk on the variable rate mortgage. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company had $84 thousand of unrealized gain related to the interest rate swap. The Company closed out this derivative in December 2018 as part of the Company's sale/leaseback transaction and the Company does not own any derivative instruments at March 31, 2019.

 

Embedded Derivative Liabilities

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 815 (“FASB ASC 815”), “Derivatives and Hedging,” which requires a periodic valuation of the fair value of derivative instruments and a corresponding recognition of liabilities associated with such derivatives.

 

8. LEASES

 

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company implemented the new accounting guidance on leases found in ASC 842, Leases. As part of its transition, the Company elected to utilize the effective date method of implementation. Under the effective date method, the Company includes the new required disclosures for the current period and provides the disclosures required by the previous guidance found in ASC 840 for the prior year comparative periods. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classifications and allowed the Company to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from being recorded on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company also reviewed outstanding service contracts to determine if any of the Company's service contracts contained an embedded lease. The Company did not identify any new leases through this process. The new lease accounting guidance also changes the name of leases formerly referred to as Capital leases under ASC 840 to Financing leases under ASC 842.

 

In December 2018, the Company entered into a sale-lease back transaction to sell and lease back the CUI, Inc. Tualatin facility. The Company sold the Tualatin headquarters and warehouse for $8.1 million at a deferred gain of $2.9 million and has leased back the facility for approximately $53 thousand per month until December 2022. The lease includes two options to renew the term for periods of five years each at the then prevailing market rate per rentable square foot for the premises. As a result of the implementation and transition to the accounting guidance in ASC 842, the deferred gain was recognized on January 1, 2019 as a credit to retained earnings.

 

Orbital-UK has a number of operating leases on vehicles, equipment, and accommodations for visiting personnel. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the total monthly rent on these leases was approximately $31 thousand.

 

 

The Company rents office and warehouse space in Houston, Texas through December 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, rent expense on this lease was approximately $30 thousand per month. The lease includes two options to renew the term for periods of five years each at the then prevailing market rate per rentable square foot for the premises.

 

In March 2015, as part of the Tectrol acquisition, the Company leased the Toronto facility though March 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the monthly rent of this facility was approximately $33 thousand per month. CUIC has the option to extend the term of the lease for a further period of five years (renewal term is March 2020 to February 2025). The Company has already taken the position that the renewal is probable to be exercised so the renewal period is already included in the lease liability balance using the current monthly payment (since the new amount remains unknown).

 

Additionally, CUI Japan leases office space. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the monthly base rent for this facility was approximately $3 thousand. There is not a specific renewal option in the lease. Renewal will be negotiated at market rates at the end of the term.

 

Consolidated rental expense was $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and is included in selling, general and administrative on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

10. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

Operating segments are defined in accordance with ASC 280-10 as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The measurement basis of segment profit or loss is income (loss) from operations.

 

Management has identified six operating segments based on the activities of the Company in accordance with the ASC 280-10. These operating segments have been aggregated into two reportable segments, and an Other category. The two reportable segments are Power and Electromechanical and Energy. The Power and Electromechanical segment is focused on the operations of CUI, CUI-Canada and CUI Japan for the sale of internal and external power supplies, related components and industrial controls. The Energy segment is focused on the operations of Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. and Orbital Gas Systems, North America, Inc. which includes gas related test and measurement systems, including the GasPT. The Other category represents the remaining activities that are not included as part of the other reportable segments and represents primarily corporate activity.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company’s total revenues consisted of 76% from the Power and Electromechanical segment and 24% from the Energy segment. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company's total revenues consisted of 77% from the Power and Electromechanical segment and 23% from the Energy segment.

11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-15,  Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract  ("ASU 2018-15"). The amendments in ASU 2018-15 align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license). The guidance will be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that year. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt the standard in 2020.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,  Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement  (“ASU 2018-13”). The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including requiring the disclosure of the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance will be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that year. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt the standard in 2020.

 

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,  Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments  (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 is intended to provide financial statement users with more useful information about expected credit losses on financial assets held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The new standard replaces the existing incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable forward-looking information to estimate all expected credit losses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt the standard in 2020.

 

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The Company’s fair value hierarchy for its cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, was as follows:

 

 

(in thousands)
March 31, 2019		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total
Money market securities		$	16			$	—			$	—			$	16
Certificates of deposit - restricted cash			523				—				—				523
Certificate of deposit - restricted investment (1)			400				—				—				400
Total assets		$	939			$	—			$	—			$	939

 

December 31, 2018		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total
Money market securities		$	16			$	—			$	—			$	16
Certificates of deposit - restricted cash			523				—				—				523
Certificate of deposit - restricted investment (1)			400				—				—				400
Convertible notes receivable			—				—				655				655
Total assets		$	939			$	—			$	655			$	1,594

 

 

 

(1) Investment is a 12-month certificate of deposit classified as available for sale and included in Deposits and other assets on the balance sheet.

 

There were no transfers between Level 3 and Level 2 in 2019 as determined at the end of the reporting period. The inputs used to measure the convertible note are classified as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. The valuation is not supported by market criteria and reflects the Company’s internal analysis. Since the valuation is not supported by market criteria, the valuation is completely dependent on unobservable inputs. During quarterly updates of the valuation, the calculation of the value is based on recent similar transactions with the seller of the convertible notes. The convertible note receivable was converted to VPS stock in the first quarter of 2019 (see Note 6). The future value of the investment will be measured using the equity method of accounting.

 

 

 

13. LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 260 (“FASB ASC 260”), “Earnings per Share,” basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period calculated using the treasury stock method. Due to the Company’s net loss in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, the assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method would have had an antidilutive effect and therefore 1.0 million shares related to stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for both the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Accordingly, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

 

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)		For the Three Months Ended March 31,
		2019				2018
Net loss		$	(3,003	)		$	(3,261	)
Basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding			28,583,600				28,488,032
Basic and diluted loss per common share		$	(0.11	)		$	(0.11	)

 

 

14. INCOME TAXES

 

The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S., as well as various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against the Company's U.S. and foreign U.K. net deferred tax assets as it is not more likely than not that the Company will realize a benefit from these assets in a future period. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management concludes realization of such amounts is more likely than not.

 

A net income tax expense of $47 thousand was recorded to the income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2019, resulting in an effective tax rate of (1.6%). The income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 includes taxes on profitable foreign operations and domestic state minimum taxes. The Company has provided a full valuation on existing deferred tax assets in the United States and United Kingdom.

 

The Company's total income tax benefit and effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $302 thousand resulting in an effective tax rate of 8.5%. The income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to realizable benefits on losses in certain foreign jurisdictions offset by taxes on profitable foreign operations and domestic state minimum taxes. All of the Company’s United States deferred tax assets were reduced by a full valuation allowance.

 

 

 

15. OVERDRAFT FACILITY AND WORKING CAPITAL LINE OF CREDIT

 

On October 5, 2016, Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. signed a five-year agreement with the London branch of Wells Fargo Bank N.A. for a multi-currency variable rate overdraft facility with the following terms:

 

 

The London branch of Wells Fargo Bank N.A. can demand repayment of amounts on overdraft at any time. The overdraft facility is primarily secured by land, equipment, intellectual property rights, and rights to potential future insurance proceeds held by Orbital Gas Systems Ltd.

 

CUI, Inc. and CUI-Canada have a line of credit (LOC) whose terms with Wells Fargo Bank are as follows:

 

 

(in thousands)
Credit Limit				March 31, 2019 Balance			Expiration Date		Interest rate
$	5,000	(1)		$	1,460	(2)	June 1, 2019		Fixed rate at 2.25% above the LIBOR in effect on the first day of the applicable fixed-rate term, or
									Variable rate at 2.25% above the daily one-month LIBOR rate.

 

(1)	$2 million of the line of credit is reserved to guarantee the obligation of Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. under its Overdraft Facility.

 

(2)

As a result of the Company’s cash management system, checks issued but not presented to the bank for payment may create negative book cash balances. When those checks are presented for payment if there isn't sufficient cash in the bank account, the checks would be honored by the bank with a corresponding increase to CUI's draw on its line of credit. There were no negative book cash balances included in the balance on the line of credit as of March 31, 2019.

 

The line of credit is secured by the following collateral via a security agreement with CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada at March 31, 2019:

 

(in thousands)

CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada General intangibles, net		$	8,337
CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada Accounts receivable, net		$	8,773
CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada Inventory, net		$	9,791
CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada Equipment, net		$	654

 

The borrowing base for the line of credit is based on a percent of CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada's inventory plus a percent of CUI Inc.'s accounts receivable.

 

 

CUI Global, Inc., the parent company, is a payment guarantor of the LOC. Other terms included in this revolving line of credit for CUI limit capital expenditures by CUI Inc. and CUI-Canada to $1.75 million in any fiscal year. The LOC is supported by a single long-term note that does not require repayment until maturity although the Company at its option can repay and re-borrow amounts up to the LOC limit. The LOC contains certain financial covenants. Under the terms of CUI Inc./CUI-Canada's credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, the Company incurred a specified default limited to the breach of the EBITDA financial covenant of CUI Global as the guarantor for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2018. CUI Inc./CUI-Canada received a forbearance of this event of default through April 30, 2019, subject to certain terms and conditions. Under the terms of the forbearance, CUI Inc./CUI-Canada agreed to terminate the Orbital Gas Systems Ltd. overdraft facility with Wells Fargo Bank’s London branch by April 30, 2019. In April 2019, CUI Inc./CUI-Canada replaced the existing line of credit and overdraft facilities with a new two-year line of credit facility of up to $10.0 million with Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Due to the replacement of the LOC with a long-term facility, the balance of the LOC and overdraft facility were classified as long-term at March 31, 2019. Covenant compliance on the Wells Fargo LOC was not calculated as of March 31, 2019 due to the payoff of the Wells Fargo LOC.

20. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

In April 2019, the Company closed on a previously announced two-year revolving line of credit facility of up to $10.0 million with Bank of America Merrill Lynch. The new facility replaces the Company’s existing $5.0 million U.S.-based revolver and UK-based overdraft facilities with more favorable terms (see Note 15).
