FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Except for any historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contain certain “forward-looking statements’’ within the meaning of the federal securities laws. This includes statements regarding our future financial position, economic performance, results of operations, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, plans and objectives of management for future operations, and the information referred to under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,’’ “will,’’ “expect,’’ “intend,’’ “estimate,’’ “anticipate,’’ “believe,’’ “continue’’ or similar terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words, These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control, Accordingly, you are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict, Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, expectations may prove to have been materially different from the results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, Unless otherwise required by law, we also disclaim any obligation to update our view of any such risks or uncertainties or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to the forward-looking statements made in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the cautionary statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q in our other SEC filings, including the more detailed discussion of these factors and other factors that could affect our results included in the “Risk Factors” section in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as the same may be updated from time to time in documents that we file with the SEC. As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate, Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may prove to be material, In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time-frame, or at all.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

General

 

The quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 18, 2016. As contemplated by the SEC under Article 8 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying financial statements and footnotes have been condensed and therefore do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The interim financial data are unaudited, however in the opinion of IEG Holdings Corporation (“we, “our”, “us”) the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods. Results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the full year.

 

Nature of Business

 

The principal business activity of the Company is providing unsecured $5,000 and $10,000 consumer loans over a five-year term through its subsidiaries Investment Evolution Corporation and IEC SPV, LLC. The loans are offered under the consumer brand “Mr. Amazing Loans”. The Company is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada and originates consumer loans in the states of Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, and Virginia via its online platform and distribution network. The Company is a licensed direct lender with state licenses and/or certificates of authority to lend in these 17 states and offers all loans within the prevailing statutory rates.

 

Basis of Accounting

 

These consolidated financial statements include the operations of IEG Holdings Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Investment Evolution Corporation and IEC SPV, LLC (collectively, the “Company”). All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company’s accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and conform to general practices within the consumer finance industry.

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect any possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities.

 

Liquidity

 

The principal conditions/events that raise substantial doubt of the company’s ability to meet its obligations are i) the Company has reported recurring losses and ii) the Company has not yet generated positive net cash flows from operations. However, the Company has increased its revenue, management’s plans for the next 12 months alleviate the substantial doubt and management evaluates that as a result of these plans the Company can meet all its obligations through October 2017. Without raising additional debt or equity capital, management’s plans include reducing advertising costs to significantly reduce loan originations and related loan processing costs. There would also be a significant reduction in consulting and professional fees without additional capital being raised. Management’s plans also include utilizing the funds received from loan principal repayments for operating expenses rather than investing in loan origination. In addition, significant core operating costs have been cut from the Company in 2016 including reducing the number of employees from 12 to 7 due to increased automation of loan origination processes and reducing the number of office leases from 4 to 1 in the past quarter as old leases expired. While the Company has sufficient cash on hand at September 30, 2016 combined with anticipated cash flow from loan repayments to continue operations for at least 12 months, the Company intends, over the next 12 months, to seek additional capital via unsecured notes to expand operations and the Company has shown the capacity to raise substantial equity capital over the past few years and, although not the current plan, could seek additional equity capital if required.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated 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 and disclosures. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making these estimates. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to include short-term, highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Loans Receivable and Interest Income

 

The Company is licensed to originate consumer loans in the states of Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, and Virginia. During the nine months ended September 30 2016 and 2015, the Company originated $5,000 and $10,000 loans over a five year term. The Company offers its loans at or below the prevailing statutory rates. Loans are carried at the unpaid principal amount outstanding, net of an allowance for credit losses.

 

The Company calculates interest revenue using the interest yield method. Charges for late payments are credited to income when collected.

 

Accrual of interest income on loans receivable is suspended when no payment has been received on account for 91 days or more on a contractual basis, at which time a loan is considered delinquent. Payments received on nonaccrual financing loans are first applied to the unpaid accrued interest and then principal. Loans are returned to active status and accrual of interest income is resumed when all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current; at which time management believes future payments are reasonably assured. At September 30, 2016, 97 loans with a total balance of $433,781 were delinquent or in default.

 

Allowance for Credit Losses

 

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses due to the fact that it is probable that a portion of the loans receivable will not be collected. The allowance is estimated by management based on various factors, including specific circumstances of the individual loans, management’s knowledge of the industry, and the experience and trends of other companies in the same industry.

 

Our portfolio of loans receivable consists of a large number of relatively small, homogenous accounts. The allowance for credit losses is determined using a systematic methodology, based on a combination of historical bad debt of comparable companies. Impaired loans are considered separately and 100% charged off.

 

The allowance for credit losses is primarily based upon models that analyze specific portfolio statistics and also reflect, management’s judgment regarding overall accuracy. We take into account several factors, including the customer’s transaction history, specifically the timeliness of customer payments, the remaining contractual term of the loan, and the outstanding balance of the loan.

 

Impaired Loans

 

The Company assesses loans for impairment individually when a loan is 91 days past due. The Company defines impaired loans as bankrupt accounts and accounts that are 184 days or more past due. In accordance with the Company’s charge-off policy, once a loan is deemed uncollectible, 100% of the remaining balance is charged-off. Loans can also be charged off when deemed uncollectable due to consumer specific circumstances.

 

The Company does not accrue interest on impaired loans and any recoveries of impaired loans are recorded to the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as operating expenses in the accompanying statement of operations.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are being provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

Classification   Life
Computer equipment   5 years
Furniture and fixtures   5-8 years

IEG HOLDINGS CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2016

 

The Company amortizes its leasehold improvements over the shorter of their economic lives, which are generally five years, or the lease term that considers renewal periods that are reasonably assured. Expenses for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred, while renewals and betterments are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Operating Lease

 

The Company’s office lease in Las Vegas expires (unless renewed) on September 30, 2017.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the liability method in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 “Income Taxes”. To date, no current income tax liability has been recorded due to our accumulated net losses. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the amounts that are reported in the income tax returns. Our net deferred income tax assets have been fully reserved by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of our ability to realize future taxable income and to recover our net deferred income tax assets.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $313,902 and $527,452 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Advertising costs amounted to $92,593 and $211,828 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Earnings and Loss per Share

 

The Company computes net earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260-10 that establishes standards for computing and presenting net earnings (loss) per shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributed to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares, if any, had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Basic and diluted loss per share has been adjusted retroactively for the 100-for-1 reverse split that occurred on June 17, 2015 and for the net 10-for-1 reverse split that occurred on October 27, 2016.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain numbers from the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company has adopted guidance issued by the FASB that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with existing generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The categories are as follows:

 

  Level I – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
     
  Level II – Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
     
  Level III – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

 

At September 30, 2016 and 2015, the only financial instruments that are subject to these classifications are cash and cash equivalents, which are considered Level I assets.

 

Carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for other receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their immediate or short-term nature. The fair value of borrowings is not considered to be significantly different than its carrying amount because the stated rates for such debt reflect current market rates and conditions.

The Company had a credit facility that provided for borrowings of up to $10 million with $0 and $0 outstanding at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, subject to a borrowing base formula. The Company could borrow, at its option, at the rate of 18% with a minimum advance of $25,000. Proceeds from this credit facility were used to fund loans to consumers. In July 2015, the credit facility was converted to a term loan, to be repaid monthly, with payments equal to 100% of the consumer loan proceeds, with the balance due June 1, 2016. The credit facility was repaid in full on August 21, 2015.

 

The credit facility remains subject to a net profit interest under which the Company will pay BFG Loan Holdings, LLC, 20% of its subsidiary IEC SPV, LLC’s “Net Profit” until 10 years from the date the loan is repaid in full (August 2015). Net Profit is defined as the gross revenue less (i) interest paid on the loan, (ii) payments on any other debt incurred as a result of an approved Refinance Event, (iii) any costs, fees or commissions paid on the existing credit facility, and (iv) charge-offs to bad debt resulting from consumer loans and reduced by servicing fee. If the Refinance event shall be approved by BFG Loan Holdings, LLC and occur as set forth in the agreement, the net profit percentage shall be reduced to 10%. The Net Profit arrangement can be terminated by the Company upon a payment of $3,000,000. Net profit interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were $96,083 and $69,297, respectively. All loans receivable of the Company were pledged as collateral at September 30, 2016 for the fulfillment of the Net Profit calculation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

We are a consumer finance company providing responsible online personal loan products to customers in 17 states via our website and online application portal. We provide unsecured loans to individuals. Our $5,000 and $10,000 online personal loans range from 19.9% to 29.9% APR and all are unsecured over a five-year term. We have a 6-year track record of high quality origination, underwriting and servicing of personal loans to underbanked consumers. We leverage our experience and knowledge in the consumer finance industry to achieve a meaningful return on our investment in the loan portfolio.

 

We have the ability to finance our businesses from a diversified source of capital and funding, including financings in the capital markets. During 2015 and the first nine months of 2016, we demonstrated the ability to attract capital markets funding for our core personal loans by completing private placements of common stock and preferred stock.

 

We operate in one business segment: Consumer Loans.

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

 

Interest Revenue

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, interest revenue increased to $1,586,723, compared to $1,298,112 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was due to the growth in our interest-earning loan book of consumer receivables. We expect our interest revenue to grow significantly in future periods as we continue to grow our loan book.

 

Other Revenue

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, other revenue increased to $41,156, compared to $29,217 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Other revenue consisted of decline lead revenue, late/dishonor fees, loss recovery and stock application/processing fees. The increase was attributable to an increase in loss recovery.

 

Salaries and Compensation Expenses

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, salaries and compensation expenses decreased to $1,207,124, compared to $1,551,382 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was primarily attributable to the cessation of employment for our VP Corporate Finance and zero payment of bonuses in Q3 2016 compared to payments in Q3 2015.

 

Other Operating Expenses

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, other operating expenses increased to $1,134,836, compared to $905,721 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was attributable to the higher legal and accounting costs associated with our SEC filings in the period.

 

Consulting Fees

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, consulting fees decreased to $867,723, compared to $905,002 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was attributable to timing of capital raising fees incurred with less new equity being raised in the period.

 

Provision for Credit Losses

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the provision for credit losses expense increased to $1,000,344, compared to $793,619 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We carry a provision for credit losses which is estimated collectively based on our loan portfolio and general economic conditions. The increase in provision for credit losses from prior year was due to the larger loans receivable outstanding balance at September 30, 2016 compared to loans receivable outstanding at September 30, 2015 and an increase in loans charged off during the first quarter of 2016.

 

Advertising

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, advertising expenses decreased to $313,902, compared to $527,452 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was attributable to the reduction in customer acquisition costs incurred to grow the loan book, including online advertising, direct mail, and lead generation costs.

 

17

 

 

Rent Expense

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, rent expense decreased to $154,838, compared to $187,975 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was due to reduced relocation costs and termination of Florida, Illinois and Arizona leases.

 

Travel, Meals and Entertainment

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, travel, meals and entertainment expenses increased to $139,253, compared to $101,628 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Travel, meals and entertainment expenses include corporate travel for meetings and investor presentations, as well as other investor related expenses. The increase was due to the significant increase in investor roadshows conducted by the CEO in the period compared to the previous period.

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, depreciation and amortization decreased to $7,045, compared to $12,207 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The minimal movement was in line with expectations.

 

Interest Expense

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, interest expense decreased to $0, compared to $596,452 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease is due to repayment of BFG loan facility in August 2015.

 

Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2015

 

Interest Revenue

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, interest revenue increased to $547,551, compared to $520,373 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. This increase was due to the growth in our interest-earning loan book of consumer receivables. We expect our interest revenue to grow significantly in future periods as we continue to grow our loan book.

 

Other Revenue

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, other revenue increased to $10,000, compared to $9,894 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The minimal movement was in line with expectations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, salaries and compensation expenses decreased to $397,795, compared to $718,532 for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

Other Operating Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, other operating expenses decreased to $315,368, compared to $329,441 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was attributable to the lower legal and accounting costs associated with our SEC filings.

 

Consulting Fees

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, consulting fees increased to $414,443, compared to $282,189 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was attributable to timing of capital raising fees incurred with increased new equity being raised in the period.

 

Provision for Credit Losses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the provision for credit losses expense increased to $257,907, compared to $213,611 for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

The increase in provision for credit losses from prior year was due to larger net loan receivables in the period.

Advertising

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, advertising expenses decreased to $92,593, compared to $211,828 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was attributable to the reduction in customer acquisition costs incurred to grow the loan book, including online advertising, direct mail, and lead generation costs.

 

Rent Expense

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, rent expense decreased to $47,373, compared to $57,372 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease was due to termination of Florida, Illinois and Arizona leases.

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, travel, meals and entertainment expenses decreased to $13,085, compared to $25,718 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Travel, meals and entertainment expenses include corporate travel for meetings and investor presentations, as well as other investor related expenses. The decrease was due to the decrease in investor roadshows conducted by the CEO in the period compared to the previous period.

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, depreciation and amortization marginally decreased to $3,212, compared to $4,192 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The minimal movement was in line with expectations.

 

Interest Expense

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, interest expense decreased to $0, compared to $122,225 for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease is due to repayment of BFG loan facility in August 2015.

 

Financial Position

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We had cash and cash equivalents of $924,552 as of September 30, 2016, compared to $485,559 as of December 31, 2015. The increase was due to increased equity capital raised in the period.

 

Loans Receivable

 

We had net loan receivables of $7,250,691 as of September 30, 2016, as compared to $7,124,702 as of December 31, 2015. The increase was due to greater loan originations in the period versus repayment of loan principal by customers.

 

Other Receivables

 

We had other receivables of $141,325 as of September 30, 2016, as compared to $76,262 as of December 31, 2015. Other receivables comprised outstanding invoices for decline lead revenue due from marketing partners and accrued interest receivable on our consumer loans at September 30, 2016. The increase in other receivables is primarily due to the refund of unused research services and increase in accrued interest receivable.

 

Property and Equipment

 

We had net property and equipment of $20,895 as of September 30, 2016 as compared to $28,511 as of December 31, 2015. The minimal movement was in line with expectations and a direct result of recording depreciation expense for the period plus a loss of $571 on disposal of assets.

 

Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

 

We had accounts payable and accrued expenses of $66,119 as of September 30, 2016, compared to $96,441 as of December 31, 2015. The decrease was due to management’s decision to pay a number of September expenses in full in the current period so accrual was not required for those expenses.

 

19

 

 

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We continue to incur operating expenses in excess of net revenue but cash flow from our existing loan receivables repayments plus net revenue exceed budgeted cash operating expenses for the next 12 months. To expand operations we will require capital infusions until operating results improve. We may not be able to obtain such capital in a timely manner and as a result may incur liquidity imbalances.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We used cash in operations of $2,095,725 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $2,948,727 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, and this decrease is in line with expectations due to the continued growth of our revenue. We used cash in investing activities of $1,126,332 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $3,256,639 of cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to a decrease in loans receivable originated.

 

We were provided $3,661,050 of net cash from financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $7,469,636 during the same period in 2015. The funds were attributable to proceeds from preferred stock and common stock received and was a decrease from the corresponding period in 2015.

 

At September 30, 2016, we had cash on hand of $924,552, which when added to budgeted cash inflows from loans receivable repaid and budgeted cash inflows from revenues, is sufficient to meet our operating needs for the next 12 months.

 

The principal conditions/events that raise substantial doubt of the company’s ability to meet its obligations are i) the Company has reported recurring losses and ii) the Company has not yet generated positive net cash flows from operations. However, the Company has increased its revenue, management’s plans for the next 12 months alleviate the substantial doubt and management evaluates that as a result of these plans the Company can meet all its obligations through October 2017. Without raising additional debt or equity capital, management’s plans include reducing advertising costs to significantly reduce loan originations and related loan processing costs. There would also be a significant reduction in consulting and professional fees without additional capital being raised. Management’s plans also include utilizing the funds received from loan principal repayments for operating expenses rather than investing in loan origination. In addition, significant core operating costs have been cut from the Company in 2016 including reducing the number of employees from 12 to 7 due to increased automation of loan origination processes and reducing the number of office leases from 4 to 1 in the past quarter as old leases expired. While the Company has sufficient cash on hand at September 30, 2016 combined with anticipated cash flow from loan repayments to continue operations for at least 12 months, the Company intends, over the next 12 months, to seek additional capital via unsecured notes to expand operations and the Company has shown the capacity to raise substantial equity capital over the past few years and, although not the current plan, could seek additional equity capital if required.

 

On August 21, 2015, we, through certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries, paid an aggregate of $1,676,954, representing all principal and accrued interest under the Loan and Security Agreement, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”), among BFG and certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries. As a result, there is currently no outstanding balance under the Loan Agreement. However, the Loan Agreement continues in effect and we are subject to a net profit interest under which we are required to pay BFG 20% of the “Net Profit” of its subsidiary, IEC SPV, LLC, until 10 years from the date the loan is repaid in full (August 2015). Net Profit is defined as the gross revenue less (i) interest paid on the loan, (ii) payments on any other debt incurred as a result of refinancing the loan through a third party, as provided in the Loan Agreement, (iii) any costs, fees or commissions paid on the existing credit facility, and (iv) charge-offs to bad debt resulting from consumer loans and reduced by servicing fee. The Net Profit arrangement can be terminated by us upon a payment of $3,000,000 to BFG. Net profit interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were $96,083 and $69,297, respectively. All loans receivable of the Company were pledged as collateral at September 30, 2016 for the fulfillment of the Net Profit calculation. As of September 30, 2016, $58,885 has been paid and $37,198 was fully accrued for.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2016, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

Basis of Accounting

 

These consolidated financial statements include the operations of IEG Holdings Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Investment Evolution Corporation and IEC SPV, LLC (collectively, the “Company”). All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company’s accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and conform to general practices within the consumer finance industry.

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect any possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities.

 

The principal conditions/events that raise substantial doubt of the company’s ability to meet its obligations are i) the Company has reported recurring losses and ii) the Company has not yet generated positive net cash flows from operations. However, the Company has increased its revenue, management’s plans for the next 12 months alleviate the substantial doubt and management evaluates that as a result of these plans the Company can meet all its obligations through October 2017. Without raising additional debt or equity capital, management’s plans include reducing advertising costs to significantly reduce loan originations and related loan processing costs. There would also be a significant reduction in consulting and professional fees without additional capital being raised. Management’s plans also include utilizing the funds received from loan principal repayments for operating expenses rather than investing in loan origination. In addition, significant core operating costs have been cut from the Company in 2016 including reducing the number of employees from 12 to 7 due to increased automation of loan origination processes and reducing the number of office leases from 4 to 1 in the past quarter as old leases expired. While the Company has sufficient cash on hand at September 30, 2016 combined with anticipated cash flow from loan repayments to continue operations for at least 12 months, the Company intends, over the next 12 months, to seek additional capital via unsecured notes to expand operations and the Company has shown the capacity to raise substantial equity capital over the past few years and, although not the current plan, could seek additional equity capital if required.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the following policies below as critical to our business and results of operations. Our reported results are impacted by the application of the following accounting policies, certain of which require management to make subjective or complex judgments. These judgments involve making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may significantly impact quarterly or annual results of operations. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as expected, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated 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 and disclosures. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making these estimates. Accordingly, actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Loans Receivable and Interest Income

 

The Company offers its loans at or below the prevailing statutory rates. Loans are carried at the unpaid principal amount outstanding, net of an allowance for credit losses.

 

The Company calculates interest revenue using the interest yield method. Charges for late payments are credited to income when collected.

 

Accrual of interest income on loans receivable is suspended when no payment has been received on account for 91 days or more on a contractual basis, at which time a loan is considered delinquent. Payments received on nonaccrual financing loans are first applied to the unpaid accrued interest and then principal. Loans are returned to active status and accrual of interest income is resumed when all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current; at which time management believes future payments are reasonably assured. At September 30, 2016, 97 loans with a total balance of $433,781 were delinquent or in default.

 

21

 

 

Allowance for Credit Losses

 

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses due to the fact that it is probable that a portion of the loans receivable will not be collected. The allowance is estimated by management based on various factors, including specific circumstances of the individual loans, management’s knowledge of the industry, and the experience and trends of other companies in the same industry.

 

Our portfolio of loans receivable consists of a large number of relatively small, homogenous accounts. The allowance for credit losses is determined using a systematic methodology, based on a combination of historical bad debt of comparable companies and industry index. Impaired loans are considered separately and 100% charged off.

 

The allowance for credit losses is primarily based upon models that analyze specific portfolio statistics and also reflect, management’s judgment regarding overall accuracy. We take into account several factors, including the customer’s transaction history, specifically the timeliness of customer payments, the remaining contractual term of the loan, and the outstanding balance of the loan.

 

Impaired Loans

 

The Company assesses loans for impairment individually when a loan is 91 days past due. The Company defines impaired loans as bankrupt accounts and accounts that are 184 days or more past due. In accordance with the Company’s charge-off policy, once a loan is deemed uncollectible, 100% of the remaining balance is charged-off. Loans can also be charged off when deemed uncollectable due to consumer specific circumstances.

 

The Company does not accrue interest on impaired loans and any recoveries of impaired loans are recorded to the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as operating expenses in the accompanying statement of operations.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the liability method in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 “Income Taxes”. To date, no current income tax liability has been recorded due to our accumulated net losses. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the amounts that are reported in the income tax returns. Our net deferred income tax assets have been fully reserved by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of our ability to realize future taxable income and to recover our net deferred income tax assets.

 

Earnings and loss per Share

 

The Company computes net earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260-10 that establishes standards for computing and presenting net earnings (loss) per shares. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares, if any, had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Basic and diluted loss per share has been adjusted retroactively for the 100-for-1 reverse split that occurred on June 17, 2015 and for the net 10-for-1 reverse split that occurred on October 27, 2016.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their immediate or short-term nature. The fair value of borrowings is not considered to be significantly different than its carrying amount because the stated rates for such debt reflect current market rates and conditions.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5. Other Information

 

On October 12, 2016, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to the amended and restated articles of incorporation of the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida to effect a 1-for-1,000 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of the Company’s common stock. Upon the completion of the Reverse Split, stockholders holding only fractional shares will receive a payment for such fractional shares equal to the fair value of each share of common stock. The fair value of each share of common stock will be determined by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock over the 30 calendar days ending on (and including) the effective date. The foregoing description is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by the Articles of Amendment attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

On October 12, 2016, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to the amended and restated articles of incorporation of the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida to effect, one minute after the Reverse Split, (i) a 100-for-1 forward stock split of the common stock (the “Forward Split,” and together with the Reverse Split, the “Reverse/Forward Split”) and (ii) a reduction in the number of authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 40,000,000 (“Reduction in Authorized Shares of Common Stock”). The foregoing description is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by the Articles of Amendment attached as Exhibit 3.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Reverse/Forward Split and Reduction in Authorized Shares of Common Stock was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and the holder of a majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, as required, on August 26, 2016.

TO THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OF

IEG HOLDINGS CORPORATION

 

(Forward Stock Split/Reduction in Authorized Shares/Preferred Changes)

 

Pursuant to Section 607.1006 of the Florida Business Corporation Act, IEG HOLDINGS CORPORATION, a Florida corporation (the “Corporation”), hereby amends (“Articles of Amendment”) its amended and restated articles of incorporation, as amended (“Articles”), as follows:

 

A.       Forward Stock Split. Upon the Effective Time (as defined below) of these Articles of Amendment, each one (1) share of the Corporation’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be and hereby is automatically reclassified and changed (without any further act) into 100 validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, without increasing or decreasing the par value thereof, and each fraction of a share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be and hereby is automatically reclassified and changed (without any further act) into a number of validly issued, fully- paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock equal to the product of 100 and such fraction, which product shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share.

 

B.       Reduction in Authorized Capital Stock. Article III, Section 1 of the Articles is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

Section 1. Authorized Capital Stock. The aggregate number of shares which the Corporation shall have the authority to issue is 90,000,000 shares, of which 40,000,000 shares shall be common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 50,000,000 shall be preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.

 

C.       Amendment of Series H Preferred Stock Terms. The terms of the Series H preferred stock shall be replaced in their entirety with Series H preferred stock bearing the attributes set forth below, in order to amend the conversion ratio of the Series H Preferred Stock from two shares of Common Stock per share of Series H Preferred Stock to 0.2 shares of Common Stock per share of Series H Preferred Stock. The Series H preferred stock terms are hereby replaced in their entirety to read as follows:

 

series h preferred stock

 

1.        Designation, Amounts and Stated Value . The designation of this series, which consists of Ten Million (10,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, is the Series H Preferred Stock (the “ Series H Preferred Stock ”). The “ Stated Value ” of the Series H Preferred Stock shall be $1 per share, being the per share value of the consideration received by the Corporation for the issuance of such shares. In the event of a liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, holders of the Series H Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive the Stated Value per share of Series H Preferred Stock then outstanding.

 

2.        Dividends . The Series H Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive 8% per annum dividends paid quarterly.

 

     
   

 

3.        Rank . The Series H Preferred Stock shall rank pari passu with any other series of preferred stock hereafter designated by the Corporation and not designated as senior securities or subordinate to the Series H Preferred Stock.

 

4.        Voting Rights . On all matters to come before the shareholder of the Corporation, the holder of Series H Preferred shall have that number of votes per share (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of Series H Preferred held on the record date for the determination of the holders of the shares entitled to vote (the “ Record Date ”), or, if no Record Date is established, at the date such vote is taken or any written consent of shareholders is first solicited, and (b) 13/100. Except as otherwise expressly provided by this Certificate or by applicable law, the holders of Series H Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of the outstanding shares of all other capital stock of the Corporation (including and any other series of preferred stock then outstanding), and not as a separate class, series or voting group.

 

5.        Redemption and Call Rights . Any time after December 31, 2016, the Corporation shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem, out of funds legally available, all of the unconverted outstanding shares of the Series H Preferred Stock (the “ Redemption ”). The Company shall redeem the Series H Preferred Stock by paying in cash an amount per share equal to $1.00 (the “ Redemption Price ”). In the event that the Corporation elects to redeem the shares of the Series H Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall give notice of such election by delivering an executed and completed notice of Redemption (“ Notice of Redemption ”) to the Holder setting forth the number of shares being redeemed along with the Redemption Price. In the case of the exercise of the Redemption rights set forth herein, the Redemption privilege shall be deemed to have been exercised upon the date of receipt by the Holder of the Notice of Redemption.

 

6.        Holder Conversion Rights . The holders of the Series H Preferred Stock shall have the following rights with respect to the conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock into shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock:

 

A.       On December 31, 2016, and upon notice provided by the holder to the Corporation, a holder shall have the right to convert, at face value per share, all or any portion of their Series H Preferred Stock into shares of the Corporation’s Common Stock on the basis of 2/10 (0.2) shares of Common Stock for each share of Series H Preferred Stock so converted (the “ Conversion Ratio ”). The Conversion Ratio has been adjusted for (i) the Corporation’s rights offering to existing stockholders commenced in August 2015, (ii) the Corporation’s rights offering to existing stockholders commenced in December 2015, (iii) the Corporation’s rights offering to existing stockholders commenced in January 2016, (iv) the Corporation’s rights offering to existing stockholders commenced in March 2016, and (v) the Corporation’s October 2016 Reverse/Forward Split.

 

B.       If at any time after the date of issuance of the Series H Preferred Stock, in the event the Corporation shall (i) make or issue a dividend or other distribution payable in Common Stock (other than with respect to the Series H Preferred Stock); (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares; or (iii) combine outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares.

 

     
   

 

C.       If the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series H Preferred Stock shall be changed into the same or different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification or otherwise (other than a subdivision or combination of shares or stock dividend provided for elsewhere in this Section 6), then in each such event, the holder of each share of Series H Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such capital reorganization, reclassification or other change by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series H Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately prior to such capital reorganization, reclassification or other change.

 

D.       In each case of an adjustment or readjustment of the conversion ratio, the Corporation, at its expense, will seek to furnish each holder of Series H Preferred Stock with a certificate, showing such adjustment or readjustment, and stating in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.

 

E.       Promptly after the Corporation’s receipt of a conversion notice, and upon surrender of the Series H Preferred Stock certificate for cancellation, the Corporation shall deliver to the holder a certificate representing the number of the Corporation’s shares of Common Stock into which such Series H Preferred Stock is converted. No fractional shares shall be issued, and, in lieu of any such fractional securities, each holder of Series H Preferred Stock who will otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share upon surrender shall receive the next highest whole share.

 

7.        Consolidation, Merger, Exchange, Etc . In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination, statutory share exchange or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, money and/or any other property, then in any such case the Series H Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into preferred shares of the surviving entity providing the holders of such preferred shares with (to the extent possible) the same relative rights and preferences as the Series H Preferred Stock.

 

8.        Designation of Additional Series . The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall have the right to designate other shares of Preferred Stock having:

 

a.       dividend, liquidation, or other preferences equal to, subordinate to, or superior to the rights of holders of the Series H Preferred Stock. Such preferences shall be determined in the resolutions creating such subsequent series.

 

9.        Vote to Change the Terms of Series H Preferred Stock . The affirmative vote at a meeting duly called for such purpose or the written consent without a meeting, of the holders of not less than fifty percent (50%) of the then outstanding Series H Preferred Stock, shall be required for any change to the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation which would amend, alter, change or repeal any of the powers, designations, preferences and rights of the Series H Preferred Stock.

 

10.        Lost or Stolen Certificates . Upon receipt by the Corporation of evidence satisfactory to the Corporation of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Series H Preferred Stock certificates, and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of any indemnification undertaking by the holder to the Corporation and, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Series H Preferred Stock certificate(s), the Corporation shall execute and deliver new preferred stock certificate(s) of like tenor and date; provided, however , the Corporation shall not be obligated to re-issue preferred stock certificates if the holder contemporaneously requests the Corporation to convert such Series H Preferred Stock into Common Stock in which case such Series H Preferred Stock shall be converted pursuant to the terms of the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation and a preferred stock certificate shall only be issued if required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

     
   

 

11.        Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver . No failure or delay on the part of a holder of Series H Preferred Stock in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege.

 

12.        Status of Converted Stock . In case any shares of Series H Preferred Stock shall be converted, the shares so converted, or reacquired shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and shall no longer be designated as Series H Preferred Stock.

 

E. Authority to Amend. These Articles of Amendment were adopted by the unanimous consent of the Corporation’s Board of Directors on August 26, 2016 and duly approved by the Corporation’s stockholders on August 26, 2016 as required by law and the Corporation’s Articles. The number of votes cast for the Articles of Amendment by the stockholders was sufficient for approval.

 

D. Effective Time. The foregoing amendment will become effective on October 17, 2016, at 6:01 p.m. (“Effective Time”).
