Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared by the Company without audit. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vivint Smart Home, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The information as of December 31, 2019 included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (all of which are considered of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods and dates presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.
Preparing financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on the Company’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may be different from the Company’s estimates. The results of operations presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s results for any future period.
The audited consolidated financial statements of Legacy Vivint Smart Home for the year ending December 31, 2019, which is considered the Company’s accounting predecessor, are included in Amendment No. 2 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 13, 2020, and is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Basis of Presentation
On January 17, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company consummated the previously announced merger pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 15, 2019, by and among the Company, Merger Sub, and Legacy Vivint Smart Home, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 18, 2019, by and among the Company, Merger Sub and Legacy Vivint Smart Home. (See Note 5 “Business Combination” for further discussion).
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and Legacy Vivint Smart Home was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy Vivint Smart Home, with Legacy Vivint Smart Home surviving as the surviving company (the “Business Combination”). Notwithstanding the legal form of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Vivint Smart Home, Inc. is treated as the acquired company and Legacy Vivint Smart Home is treated as the acquirer for financial statement reporting and accounting purposes. Legacy Vivint Smart Home has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances:
•Legacy Vivint Smart Home’s shareholders prior to the Business Combination have the greatest voting interest in the combined entity;
•the largest individual shareholder of the combined entity was an existing shareholder of Legacy Vivint Smart Home;
•Legacy Vivint Smart Home’s directors represent the majority of the Vivint Smart Home board of directors;
•Legacy Vivint Smart Home’s senior management is the senior management of Vivint Smart Home; and
•Legacy Vivint Smart Home is the larger entity based on historical total assets and revenues.
As a result of Legacy Vivint Smart Home being the accounting acquirer, the financial reports filed with the SEC by the Company subsequent to the Business Combination are prepared “as if” Legacy Vivint Smart Home is the predecessor and legal successor to the Company. The historical operations of Legacy Vivint Smart Home are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of Legacy Vivint Smart Home prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the combined results of the Company and Legacy Vivint Smart Home following the Business Combination on January 17, 2020; (iii) the assets and liabilities of Legacy Vivint Smart Home at their historical cost; and (iv) the Company’s equity structure for all periods presented. The recapitalization of the number of shares of common stock attributable to the purchase of Legacy Vivint Smart Home in connection with the Business Combination is reflected retroactively to the earliest period presented and will be utilized for calculating earnings per share in all prior periods presented. No step-up basis of intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in the Business Combination transaction consistent with the treatment of the transaction as a reverse recapitalization of Legacy Vivint Smart Home.
In connection with the Business Combination, Mosaic Acquisition Corp. changed its name to Vivint Smart Home, Inc. The Company’s Common Stock is now listed on the NYSE under the symbol “VVNT” and warrants to purchase the Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “VVNT WS”. Prior to the Business Combination, the Company neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenue. Until the Business Combination, based on the Company’s business activities, it was a “shell company” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Vivint Flex Pay
The Vivint Flex Pay plan (“Vivint Flex Pay”) became the Company's primary sales model beginning in March 2017. Under Vivint Flex Pay, customers pay separately for the products (including control panel, security peripheral equipment, smart home equipment, and related installation) (“Products”) and Vivint's smart home and security services (“Services”). The customer has the following three ways to pay for the Products: (1) qualified customers in the United States may finance the purchase of Products through third-party financing providers (“Consumer Financing Program”), (2) the Company offers to some customers not eligible for the Consumer Financing Program, but who qualify under the Company's underwriting criteria, the option to enter into a retail installment contract (“RIC”) directly with Vivint, or (3) customers may purchase the Products at the outset of the service contract by check, automatic clearing house payments (“ACH”), credit or debit card.
Although customers pay separately for Products and Services under the Vivint Flex Pay plan, the Company has determined that the sale of Products and Services are one single performance obligation. As a result, all forms of transactions under Vivint Flex Pay create deferred revenue for the gross amount of Products sold. Gross deferred revenues are reduced by imputed interest and estimated write-offs on the RICs and the present value of expected payments due to the third-party financing provider under the Consumer Financing Program.
Under the Consumer Financing Program, qualified customers are eligible for loans provided by third-party financing providers of up to $4,000. The annual percentage rates on these loans range between 0% and 9.99%, and are either installment or revolving loans with a 42 or 60 month term. Most loan terms are determined based on the customer's credit quality.
For certain third-party provider loans, the Company pays a monthly fee based on either the average daily outstanding balance of the loans or the number of outstanding loans, depending on the third-party financing provider and the Company shares liability for credit losses, with the Company being responsible for between 5% and 100% of lost principal balances. Additionally, the Company is responsible for reimbursing certain third-party financing providers for credit card transaction fees associated with the loans. Because of the nature of these provisions, the Company records a derivative liability at its fair value when the third-party financing provider originates loans to customers, which reduces the amount of estimated revenue recognized on the provision of the services. The derivative liability is reduced as payments are made by the Company to the third-party financing provider. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the derivative liability are realized through other expenses (income), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. (see Note 9 “Financial Instruments” for additional information).
For other third-party loans, the Company receives net proceeds (net of fees and expected losses) for which the Company has no further obligation to the third-party. The Company records these net proceeds to deferred revenue.
Retail Installment Contract Receivables
For subscribers that enter into a RIC to finance the purchase of Products and related installation, the Company records a receivable for the amount financed. Gross RIC receivables are reduced for (i) expected write-offs of uncollectible balances over the term of the RIC and (ii) a present value discount of the expected cash flows using a risk adjusted market interest rate.
Therefore, the RIC receivables equal the present value of the expected cash flows to be received by the Company over the term of the RIC, evaluated on a pool basis. RICs are pooled based on customer credit quality, contract length and geography. At the time of installation, the Company records a long-term note receivable within long-term notes receivables and other assets, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for the present value of the receivables that are expected to be collected beyond 12 months of the reporting date. The unbilled receivable amounts that are expected to be collected within 12 months of the reporting date are included as a short-term notes receivable within accounts and notes receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The billed amounts of notes receivables are included in accounts receivable within accounts and notes receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company imputes the interest on the RIC receivable using a risk adjusted market interest rate and records it as a reduction to deferred revenue and to the face amount of the related receivable. The risk adjusted interest rate considers a number of factors, including credit quality of the subscriber base and other qualitative considerations such as macro-economic factors. The imputed interest income is recognized over the term of the RIC contract as recurring and other revenue on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
When the Company determines that there are RIC receivables that have become uncollectible, it records an adjustment to the allowance and reduces the related note receivable balance. On a regular basis, the Company also assesses the expected remaining cash flows based on historical RIC write-off trends, current market conditions and both Company and third-party forecast data. In accordance with Topic 326 (see Recently Adopted Accounting Standards below), if the Company determines there is a change in expected remaining cash flows, the total amount of this change for all RICs is recorded in the current period to the provision for credit losses, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded a $1.5 million provision for credit losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily associated with the expected impact of COVID-19. Account balances are written-off if collection efforts are unsuccessful and future collection is unlikely based on the length of time from the day accounts become past due.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from subscribers for recurring monthly monitoring Services, amounts due from third-party financing providers and the billed portion of RIC receivables. The accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts and are non-interest bearing and are included within accounts and notes receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accounts receivable totaled $27.0 million and $20.5 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts of $8.4 million and $8.1 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. In accordance with Topic 326, the Company estimates this allowance based on historical collection experience, subscriber attrition rates, current market conditions and both Company and third-party forecast data. When the Company determines that there are accounts receivable that are uncollectible, they are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and totaled $5.1 million and $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $13.1 million and $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The changes in the Company’s allowance for accounts receivable were as follows (in thousands):

Revenue Recognition
The Company offers its customers smart home services combining Products, including a proprietary control panel, door and window sensors, door locks, security cameras and smoke alarms; installation; and a proprietary back-end cloud platform software and Services. These together create an integrated system that allows the Company’s customers to monitor, control and protect their home (“Smart Home Services”). The Company’s customers are buying this integrated system that provides them with these Smart Home Services. The number and type of Products purchased by a customer depends on their desired functionality. Because the Products and Services included in the customer’s contract are integrated and highly interdependent, and because they must work together to deliver the Smart Home Services, the Company has concluded that installed Products, related installation and Services contracted for by the customer are generally not distinct within the context of the contract and, therefore, constitute a single, combined performance obligation. Revenues for this single, combined performance obligation are recognized on a straight-line basis over the customer’s contract term, which is the period in which the parties to the contract have enforceable rights and obligations. The Company has determined that certain contracts that do not require a long-term commitment for monitoring services by the customer contain a material right to renew the contract, because the customer does not have to purchase Products upon renewal. Proceeds allocated to the material right are recognized over the period of benefit, which is generally three years.
The majority of the Company’s subscription contracts are between three and five years in length and are generally non-cancelable. These contracts with customers generally convert into month-to-month agreements at the end of the initial term, and some customer contracts are month-to-month from inception. Payment for recurring monitoring and other Smart Home Services is generally due in advance on a monthly basis.
Sales of Products and other one-time fees such as service or installation fees are invoiced to the customer at the time of sale. Revenues for the wireless internet service that were provided by the Company's former wireless internet business (“Wireless”) and any Products or Services that are considered separate performance obligations are recognized when those Products or Services are delivered. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are not included in revenue. Payments received or amounts billed in advance of revenue recognition are reported as deferred revenue.
Deferred Revenue
The Company's deferred revenues primarily consist of amounts for sales (including upfront proceeds) of Smart Home Services. Deferred revenues are recognized over the term of the related performance obligation, which is generally three to five years.
Capitalized Contract Costs
Capitalized contract costs represent the costs directly related and incremental to the origination of new contracts, modification of existing contracts or to the fulfillment of the related subscriber contracts. These include commissions, other compensation and related costs incurred directly for the origination and installation of new or upgraded customer contracts, as well as the cost of Products installed in the customer home at the commencement or modification of the contract. These costs are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit that the Company has determined to be five years. The period of benefit of five years is longer than a typical contract term because of anticipated contract renewals. The Company applies this period of benefit to its entire portfolio of contracts. The Company updates its estimate of the period of benefit periodically and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the period of benefit could change significantly. Such changes, if any, are accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate. Amortization of capitalized contract costs is included in “Depreciation and Amortization” on the consolidated statements of operations. These deferred costs are periodically reviewed for impairment. Contract costs not directly related and incremental to the origination of new contracts, modification of existing contracts or to the fulfillment of the related subscriber contracts are expensed as incurred. These costs include those associated with housing, marketing and recruiting, non-direct lead generation costs, certain portions of sales commissions and residuals, overhead and other costs considered not directly and specifically tied to the origination of a particular subscriber.
On the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, capitalized contract costs are classified as operating activities and reported as “Capitalized contract costs – deferred contract costs” as these assets represent deferred costs associated with subscriber contracts.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consists of highly liquid investments with remaining maturities when purchased of three months or less.
Inventories
Inventories, which are comprised of smart home and security system Products and parts, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories sold to customers as part of a smart home and security system are generally capitalized as contract costs. The Company adjusts the inventory balance based on anticipated obsolescence, usage and historical write-offs.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Long-lived Assets
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term for assets under finance leases, whichever is shorter. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over the remaining estimated economic life of the underlying technology or relationships, which ranges from 2 to 10 years. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or in a pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed. Amortization expense associated with leased assets is included with depreciation expense. Routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, capitalized contract costs, and definite-lived intangibles for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company considers whether or not indicators of impairment exist on a regular basis and as part of each quarterly and annual financial statement close process. Factors the Company considers in determining whether or not indicators of impairment exist include market factors and patterns of customer attrition. If indicators of impairment are identified, the Company estimates the fair value of the assets. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
The Company conducts an indefinite-lived intangible impairment analysis annually as of October 1, and as necessary if changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the fair value of the Company’s indefinite-lived intangibles may be less than the carrying amount. When indicators of impairment do not exist and certain accounting criteria are met, the Company is able to evaluate indefinite-lived intangible impairment using a qualitative approach. When necessary, the Company’s quantitative impairment test consists of two steps. The first step requires that the Company compare the estimated fair value of its indefinite-lived intangibles to the carrying value. If the fair value is greater than the carrying value, the intangibles are not considered to be impaired and no further testing is required. If the fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss in an amount equal to the difference is recorded.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, no impairments to long-lived assets or intangibles were recorded.
The Company’s depreciation and amortization included in the consolidated statements of operations consisted of the following (in thousands):

Leases
Effective January 1, 2019 the Company accounts for leases under Topic 842 (see Recently Adopted Accounting Standards below). Under Topic 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of lease payments, the Company uses the implicit rate when available. When implicit rates are not available, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date. The lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and is reduced by lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not record lease ROU assets and liabilities for leases with terms of 12 months or less.
Leases are classified as either operating or finance at lease inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities and finance lease liabilities are stated separately on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets are included in property, plant and equipment, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. For facility type leases, the Company separates the lease and non-lease components. Generally, the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all other class of leases.
Prior to the adoption of Topic 842, the Company's leases were classified as either operating or capital leases. Capital lease liabilities were stated separately on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and capital lease assets were included in property, plant and equipment, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating leases were not recognized in the balance sheet. Capital lease balances are presented on the same lines as finance lease balances for comparative prior periods in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. See Recently Adopted Accounting Standards below and note 13 "Leases" for additional information related to the impact of adopting Topic 842.
Deferred Financing Costs
Certain costs incurred in connection with obtaining debt financing are deferred and amortized utilizing the straight-line method, which approximates the effective-interest method, over the life of the related financing. Deferred financing costs associated with obtaining APX Group, Inc.’s (“APX”) revolving credit facility are amortized over the amended maturity dates discussed in Note 3 “Long-Term Debt.” Deferred financing costs included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets within deferred financing costs, net at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $1.9 million and $1.1 million, net of accumulated amortization of $10.8 million and $10.6 million, respectively. Deferred financing costs included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets within notes payable, net at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $30.8 million and $27.0 million, net of accumulated amortization of $67.3 million and $63.5 million, respectively. Amortization expense on deferred financing costs recognized and included in interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, totaled $2.0 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $4.0 million and $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively (See Note 3 “Long-Term Debt” for additional detail).
Residual Income Plans
The Company has a program that allows certain third-party sales channel partners to receive additional compensation based on the performance of the underlying contracts they create (the “Channel Partner Plan”). The Company also has a residual sales compensation plan (the “Residual Plan”) under which the Company's sales personnel (each, a “Plan Participant”) receive compensation based on the performance of certain underlying contracts they created in prior years.
For both the Channel Partner Plan and Residual Plan, the Company calculates the present value of the expected future residual payments and records a liability for this amount in the period the subscriber account is originated. These costs are recorded to capitalized contract costs. The Company monitors actual payments and customer attrition on a periodic basis and, when necessary, makes adjustments to the liability. The amount included in accrued payroll and commissions was $4.0 million and $4.5 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and the amount included in other long-term obligations was $22.8 million and $22.1 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures compensation cost based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes that cost over the requisite service period of the awards (See Note 11 “Stock-Based Compensation and Equity” for additional details).
Advertising Expense
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $14.0 million and $17.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $26.8 million and $30.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes based on the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
The Company recognizes the effect of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties is to record such items as a component of the provision for income taxes.
Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. The Company records the effect of a tax rate or law change on the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities in the period of enactment. Future tax rate or law changes could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of receivables and cash. At times during the year, the Company maintains cash balances in excess of insured limits. The Company is not dependent on any single customer or geographic location. The loss of a customer would not adversely impact the Company’s operating results or financial position.
Concentrations of Supply Risk
As of June 30, 2020, approximately 90% of the Company’s installed panels were SkyControl panels and approximately 10% were 2GIG Go!Control panels. During 2018 the Company transitioned to a new panel supplier. The loss of the Company's panel supplier could potentially impact its operating results or financial position.
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities subject to on-going fair value measurement are categorized and disclosed into one of three categories depending on observable or unobservable inputs employed in the measurement. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available.
This hierarchy requires the Company to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value. The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the hierarchy based on the fair values of the respective financial measurements at the end of the reporting period in which the transfer occurred. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
Goodwill
The Company conducts a goodwill impairment analysis annually in the fourth fiscal quarter, as of October 1, and as necessary if changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the fair value of the Company’s reporting units may be less than their carrying amounts. When indicators of impairment do not exist and certain accounting criteria are met, the Company is able to evaluate goodwill impairment using a qualitative approach. When necessary, the Company’s quantitative goodwill impairment test consists of two steps. The first step requires that the Company compare the estimated fair value of its reporting units to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is not considered to be impaired and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of its net assets, the Company would be required to complete the second step of the test by analyzing the fair value of its goodwill. If the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recorded. The Company’s reporting units are determined based on its current reporting structure, which as
of June 30, 2020 consisted of one reporting unit. As of June 30, 2020, there were no changes in facts and circumstances since the most recent annual impairment analysis to indicate impairment existed.
Foreign Currency Translation and Other Comprehensive Income
The functional currency of Vivint Canada, Inc. is the Canadian dollar. Accordingly, Vivint Canada, Inc. assets and liabilities are translated from their respective functional currencies into U.S. dollars at period-end rates and Vivint Canada, Inc. revenue and expenses are translated at the weighted-average exchange rates for the period. Adjustments resulting from this translation process are classified as other comprehensive income (loss) and shown as a separate component of equity.
When intercompany foreign currency transactions between entities included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements are of a long term investment nature (i.e., those for which settlement is not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future) foreign currency translation adjustments resulting from those transactions are included in stockholders’ deficit as accumulated other comprehensive loss or income. When intercompany transactions are deemed to be of a short term nature, translation adjustments are required to be included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company has determined that settlement of Vivint Canada, Inc. intercompany balances is anticipated and therefore such balances are deemed to be of a short term nature. Translation activity included in the statement of operations in other (income) expenses, net related to intercompany balances was as follows: (in thousands)

Letters of Credit
As of each June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $15.6 million and $11.1 million, respectively, of letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business, all of which are undrawn.
Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges
Restructuring and asset impairment charges represent expenses incurred in relation to activities to exit or disposal of portions of the Company's business that do not qualify as discontinued operations. Liabilities associated with restructuring are measured at their fair value when the liability is incurred. Expenses for related termination benefits are recognized at the date the Company notifies the employee, unless the employee must provide future service, in which case the benefits are expensed ratably over the future service period. Liabilities related to termination of a contract are measured and recognized at fair value when the contract does not have any future economic benefit to the entity and the fair value of the liability is determined based on the present value of the remaining obligation. The Company expenses all other costs related to an exit or disposal activity as incurred (See Note 16).
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)” which modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments. This update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019 and must be applied using a modified-retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
2. Revenue and Capitalized Contract Costs
Customers are typically invoiced for Smart Home Services in advance or at the time the Company delivers the related Smart Home Services. The majority of customers pay at the time of invoice via credit card, debit card or ACH. Deferred revenue relates to the advance consideration received from customers, which precedes the Company’s satisfaction of the associated performance obligation. The Company’s deferred revenues primarily result from customer payments received in advance for recurring monthly monitoring and other Smart Home Services, or other one-time fees, because these performance obligations are satisfied over time.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized revenues of $143.2 million and $135.1 million, respectively, that were included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
As of June 30, 2020, approximately $2.7 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations for subscription contracts. The Company expects to recognize approximately 61% of the revenue related to these remaining performance obligations over the next 24 months, with the remaining balance recognized over an additional 36 months.
Timing of Revenue Recognition
The Company considers Products, related installation, and its proprietary back-end cloud platform software and services an integrated system that allows the Company’s customers to monitor, control and protect their homes. These Smart Home Services are accounted for as a single performance obligation that is recognized over the customer’s contract term, which is generally three to five years.
Capitalized Contract Costs
Capitalized contract costs generally include commissions, other compensation and related costs paid directly for the generation and installation of new or modified customer contracts, as well as the cost of Products installed in the customer home at the commencement or modification of the contract. The Company defers and amortizes these costs for new or modified subscriber contracts on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit of five years.

Term Loan
As of June 30, 2020, APX had outstanding term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $947.6 million (the “Term Loan”) under its amended and restated credit agreement.

The applicable margin for base rate-based borrowings is 4.0% per annum and the applicable margin for LIBOR rate-based borrowings is 5.0% per annum.

Debt Modifications and Extinguishments
The Company performs analyses on a creditor-by-creditor basis for debt modifications and extinguishments to determine if repurchased debt was substantially different than debt issued to determine the appropriate accounting treatment of associated issuance costs. As a result of these analyses, the following amounts of other expense and loss on extinguishment and deferred financing costs were recorded (in thousands):

Revolving Credit Facility
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, APX amended and restated the credit agreement governing its existing senior secured revolving credit facility to provide for, among other things, (1) an increase in the aggregate commitments previously available to it to $350.0 million and (2) the extension of the maturity date with respect to certain of the previously available commitments.
Borrowings under the amended and restated revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at APX’s option, either (1) the base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (c) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% or (2) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the London interbank offered rate for dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowing. The applicable margin for base rate-based borrowings (1)(a) under the Series A Revolving Commitments of approximately $10.9 million and the Series C Revolving Commitments of approximately $330.8 million is 2.0% per annum and (b) under the Series B Revolving Commitments of approximately $8.3 million is 3.0% and (2)(a) the applicable margin for LIBOR rate-based borrowings (a) under the Series A Revolving Commitments and the Series C Revolving Commitments is currently 3.0% per annum and (b) under the Series B Revolving Commitments is currently 4.0%. The applicable margin for borrowings under the revolving credit facility is subject to one step-down of 25 basis points based on APX meeting a consolidated first lien net leverage ratio test at the end of each fiscal quarter.
In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the revolving credit facility, APX is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee (which is subject to one interest rate step-down of 12.5 basis points, based on APX meeting a consolidated first lien net leverage ratio test) to the lenders under the revolving credit facility in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder.

5. Business Combination
On January 17, 2020, the Company consummated the previously announced merger pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 15, 2019, by and among the Company, Merger Sub, and Legacy Vivint Smart Home, as amended by the Merger Agreement, dated as of December 18, 2019, by and among the Company, Maiden Sub and Legacy Vivint Smart Home.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between the Company and Legacy Vivint Smart Home was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy Vivint Smart Home, with Legacy Vivint Smart Home surviving as the surviving company. At the effective time of the Business Combination (the “Effective Time”), each stockholder of Legacy Vivint Smart Home received 84.5320916792 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for each share of Legacy Vivint Smart Home common stock, par value $0.01 per share, that such stockholder owned.
Pursuant in each case to a Subscription Agreement entered into in connection with the Merger Agreement, certain investment funds managed by affiliates of Fortress Investment Group LLC (“Fortress”) and certain investment funds affiliated with The Blackstone Group Inc. (“Blackstone”) purchased, respectively, 12,500,000 and 10,000,000 newly-issued shares of Common Stock (such purchases, the “Fortress PIPE” and the “Blackstone PIPE,” respectively, and together, the “PIPE”) concurrently with the completion of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) on the Closing Date for an aggregate purchase price of $125.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively. In connection with the Merger, each of the issued and outstanding Founder Shares was converted into approximately 1.20 shares of Common Stock of the Company. The private placement warrants will expire five years after the Closing or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
In connection with the execution of the Amendment, the Company entered into a Subscription and Backstop Agreement (the “Fortress Subscription and Backstop Agreement”). On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Fortress Subscription and Backstop Agreement, Fortress purchased 2,698,753 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate of $27.8 million. In addition, the Company entered into an additional subscription agreement (the “Additional Forward Purchaser Subscription Agreement”) with one of the forward purchasers (the “Forward Purchaser”). Pursuant to the Additional Forward Purchaser Subscription Agreement, immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Forward Purchaser purchased from us 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $10.00 per share. As consideration for the additional investment, concurrently with the Closing, 25% of Mosaic Sponsor LLC’s founder shares (“Forward Shares”) and private placement warrants were forfeited to the Company and the Company issued to the Forward Purchaser a number of shares of Common Stock equal to approximately 1.20 times the number of Founder Shares forfeited and a number of warrants equal to the number of private placement warrants forfeited.
At the Closing, certain investors (including an affiliate of Fortress) received an aggregate of 15,789,474 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $9.50 per share (the “IPO Forward Purchaser Investment”) pursuant to the terms of the forward purchase agreements the Company entered into in connection with the Company’s initial public offering.
In connection with the Closing, 31,074,592 shares of Common Stock were redeemed at a price per share of approximately $10.29. In addition, in connection with the Closing, each Founder Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (other than the Founder Shares forfeited in connection with the Additional Forward Purchaser Subscription Agreement) converted into approximately 1.20 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each issued and outstanding share of Legacy Vivint Smart Home preferred stock (other than shares owned by Legacy Vivint Smart Home as treasury stock) converted into approximately 1.43 shares of Legacy Vivint Smart Home common stock in accordance with the certificate of designations of the Legacy Vivint Smart Home preferred stock.

Earnout consideration
Following the closing of the Merger, holders of Vivint common stock and holders of Rollover Restricted Stock (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and outstanding Rollover Equity Awards (as defined in the Merger Agreement) will have the contingent right to receive, in the aggregate, up to 37,500,000 shares of Common Stock if, from the closing of the Merger until the fifth anniversary thereof, the dollar volume-weighted average price of Common Stock exceeds certain thresholds. The first issuance of 12,500,000 earnout shares will occur if the volume-weighted average price of Common Stock exceeds $12.50 for any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “First Earnout”). The second issuance of 12,500,000 earnout shares will occur if the volume weighted average price of Common Stock exceeds $15.00 for any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “Second Earnout”). The third issuance of 12,500,000 earnout shares will occur if the volume weighted average price of Common Stock exceeds $17.50 for any 20 trading days within any 30 trading day period (the “Third Earnout”) (as further described in the Merger Agreement).
Subsequent to the closing of the Merger, the issuance of 11,595,663 and 11,600,551 earnout shares occurred in February 2020 and March 2020, respectively, after attainment of the First Earnout and Second Earnout. The difference in the shares issued in the earnouts and the aggregate amounts defined in the Merger Agreement above are attributable to unissued shares reserved for future issuance to holders of Rollover Equity Awards, which are subject to the same vesting terms and conditions as the underlying Rollover Equity Awards. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, 174,027 additional earnout shares were issued as a result of vesting associated with Rollover Equity Awards. Additionally, shares were withheld from employees to satisfy the mandatory tax withholding requirements. As of June 30, 2020, the Third Earnout has not yet been achieved. The Company has determined that the earnout shares issued to non-employee shareholders and to holders of Vivint common stock, Rollover Restricted Stock, and vested Rollover Equity Awards qualify for the scope exception in ASC 815-10-15-74(a) and meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815-40. For the earnout shares associated with unvested Rollover Equity Awards, the Company has determined that they qualify for equity classification and are subject to stock-based compensation expense under ASC 718. The earnout shares were initially measured at fair value at Closing. Upon the attainment of the share price targets, the earnout shares delivered to the equity holders are recorded in equity as shares issued, with the appropriate
allocation to common stock at par and additional paid-in capital. Since all earnout shares have determined to be equity-classified, there is no remeasurement unless reclassification is required.

The Notes are fixed-rate debt considered Level 2 fair value measurements as the values were determined using observable market inputs, such as current interest rates, prices observable from less active markets, as well as prices observable from comparable securities. The Term Loan is floating-rate debt and approximates the carrying value as interest accrues at floating rates based on market rates.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Under the Consumer Financing Program, the Company pays a monthly fee to third-party financing providers based on either the average daily outstanding balance of the loans or the number of outstanding loans depending on third-party financing provider. The Company also shares the liability for credit losses, depending on the credit quality of the customer. Because of the nature of certain provisions under the Consumer Financing Program, the Company records a derivative liability that is not designated as a hedging instrument and is adjusted to fair value, measured using the present value of the estimated future payments. Changes to the fair value are recorded through other income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The following represent the contractual obligations with the third-party financing providers under the Consumer Financing Program that are components of the derivative:
•The Company pays either a monthly fee based on the average daily outstanding balance of the loans, or the number of outstanding loans, depending on the third-party financing provider
•The Company shares the liability for credit losses depending on the credit quality of the customer
•The Company pays transactional fees associated with customer payment processing
The derivative is classified as a Level 3 instrument. The derivative positions are valued using a discounted cash flow model, with inputs consisting of available market data, such as market yield discount rates, as well as unobservable internally derived assumptions, such as collateral prepayment rates, collateral default rates and loss severity rates. These derivatives are priced quarterly using a credit valuation adjustment methodology. In summary, the fair value represents an estimate of the present value of the cash flows the Company will be obligated to pay to the third-party financing provider for each component of the derivative.
The following table summarizes the fair value and the notional amount of the Company’s outstanding derivative instrument as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (in thousands):

10. Income Taxes
In order to determine the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter during which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.
The Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was approximately a negative 0.04% and 0.41%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 differ from the statutory rate primarily due to not benefiting from expected US losses, US state minimum taxes and projected losses in Canada. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was also impacted by a discrete change in valuation allowance resulting from an acquisition during that period.
Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, recording valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, and evaluating the Company’s uncertain tax positions. In evaluating the ability to realize its deferred tax assets, in full or in part, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including past operating results, forecasted future earnings, and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. Due to historical net losses incurred and the uncertainty of realizing the deferred tax assets, for all the periods presented, the Company has maintained a domestic valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that remain after offset by domestic deferred tax liabilities, and the company currently anticipates recording a valuation allowance against net foreign deferred tax assets by the end of the current year.
11. Stock-Based Compensation and Equity
Restricted Stock
Prior to the Business Combination, Legacy Vivint Smart Home’s indirect parent, 313 Acquisition LLC (“313”), which is majority owned by Blackstone, authorized the award of profits interests, representing the right to share a portion of the value appreciation on the initial capital contributions to 313 (“Incentive Units”). As part of the Business Combination, all vested Incentive Units, other than certain Holdback Executives, were redeemed by 313 for a number of shares in Vivint Smart Home and Vivint Solar, if any, assuming a hypothetical liquidation of 313. All unvested Incentive Units were redeemed by 313 Acquisition for a number of shares of restricted stock in Vivint Smart Home (“Restricted Stock”), if any. As part of the Business Combination, the vesting terms were modified such that all shares (other than those held by non-employee directors or their affiliates) were converted to time-based annual vesting. As of June 30, 2020, 549,500 shares of Restricted Stock related to this redemption were outstanding, to current and former members of senior management and an affiliate of a non-employee board member. In February 2020 the board of directors approved a modification to the vesting conditions (excluding with respect to awards held by non-employee directors and their affiliates) so that all unvested awards become fully vested (to the extent not already vested) in January 2021, subject to continued employment or services, as applicable (the “modification”). In the event of a change of control prior to January 17, 2021, all outstanding Restricted Stock with time-based vesting conditions will become fully vested and exercisable.
The fair value of stock-based awards were measured at the grant date and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The grant date fair value was primarily determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation approach with the following assumptions: expected volatility varies from 55% to 125%; expected exercise term between 3.96 and 6.00 years; and risk-free rates between 0.62% and 2.61%. The shares that were modified as part of the Business Combination were measured based on the valuation set forth in the Business Combination.
Rollover SARs and LTIPs
Prior to the Business Combination, the Company’s subsidiary, Vivint Group, Inc. (“Vivint Group”), awarded Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) to various levels of key employees and board members, pursuant to an omnibus incentive plan. The purpose of the SARs was to attract and retain personnel and provide an opportunity to acquire an equity interest of Vivint Group and/or its direct or indirect parents. In connection with the Business Combination, each SAR, to the extent then outstanding and unexercised, was automatically cancelled and converted into a SAR of Vivint Smart Home (“Rollover SAR”) with respect to a number of shares of Vivint Smart Home Class A common stock equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Vivint Group common stock subject to such Company Group SAR as of immediately prior to the effective time, multiplied by 0.0864152412, with a strike price per share of Vivint Smart Home Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the per share strike price of such SAR as of immediately prior to the effective time by (ii) 0.0864152412. As part of the Business Combination, the vesting terms were modified such that all shares were converted to time-based annual vesting. As of June 30, 2020, 2,851,605 Rollover SARs were outstanding. In addition, 4,633,738 LTIP SARs have been set aside for funding incentive compensation pools pursuant to long-term sales and installation employee incentive plans established by the Company. In February 2020 the board of directors approved the modification to the vesting conditions so that all unvested awards become fully vested (to the extend not already vested) in January 2021, subject to continued employment or services, as applicable. In the event of a change of control prior to January 17, 2021, all outstanding Rollover SARs with time-based vesting conditions will become fully vested and exercisable. The Company expects to settle Rollover SARs through issuance of common stock.
The fair value of the Rollover SARs were measured at the grant date and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The grant date fair value was primarily determined using a Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following assumptions: expected volatility varies from 55% to 125%, expected dividends of 0%; expected exercise term between 6.00 and 6.47 years; and risk-free rates between 0.61% and 2.61%. Due to the lack of historical exercise data, the Company used the simplified method in determining the estimated exercise term. The shares that were modified as part of the Business Combination were primarily determined using a Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following assumptions: expected volatility of 60%, expected exercise term of 6.25 years; and a risk-free rate of 1.7%, along with the valuation set forth in the Business Combination. The weighted average grant date per share of the modified awards were $6.02 per share.
Rollover Restricted Stock Units
Prior to the Business Combination, the Company’s subsidiary, Vivint Group, awarded Group Restricted Stock Units (“Group RSUs”), respectively, to certain board members, pursuant to an omnibus incentive plan. The purpose of the Group RSUs is to compensate board members for their board service and align their interests of those of the Company's shareholders. As of the effective time, each Group RSU was converted into a restricted stock unit entitling the holder thereof to receive upon
settlement the value of a number of shares of Vivint Smart Home Class A common stock equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Vivint Group common stock subject to such Company Group RSU as of immediately prior to the effective time, multiplied by 0.0864152412 (“Rollover RSU”). The Rollover RSUs are subject to a three year time-based ratable vesting period. In the event of a change of control, all outstanding Rollover RSUs will become fully vested. As of June 30, 2020, 51,929 Rollover RSUs were outstanding to board members. The Company expects to settle Group RSUs through issuance of common stock.
The fair value of the Rollover RSU awards, representing the estimated equity value per share of Vivint Group at the grant date, is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The fair values were determined using management’s financial projections and available market data at the time of issuance. The grant date fair value per share of the Group RSU was $1.08 for the March 2019 issuance and $0.48 for the June 2018 issuance. As of June 30, 2020, there was $0.2 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding Rollover RSUs, which will be recognized over a period of 1.1 years.
Restricted Stock Units
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company approved grants under the Vivint Smart Home, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) of time-vesting restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) awards (each representing the right to receive one share of Class A common stock of the Company upon the settlement of each restricted stock unit) to various levels of key employees. The RSUs are subject to a four year vesting schedule, and 25% of the units will vest on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. All vesting shall be subject to the recipient’s continued employment with Vivint Smart Home, Inc. or its subsidiaries through the applicable vesting dates. No right to any common stock is earned or accrued until such time that vesting occurs, nor does the grant of the RSU award confer any right to continue vesting or employment. As of June 30, 2020, 9,104,634 of these RSUs were outstanding.
The fair value of the RSU awards, representing the estimated equity value per share of the Company at the grant date, is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The fair values were determined based on the stock price of the Company at the time of board approval which was an average of $22.77 per share.
Performance Stock Units
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company approved grants under the Plan of performance-vesting restricted stock units (the “PSUs”) (each representing the right to receive one share of Class A common stock of the Company upon the settlement of each restricted stock unit). As of June 30, 2020, 5,105,806 of these PSUs were outstanding.
The PSUs predominately vest based upon the Company’s achievement of specified performance goals through fiscal year end 2020 and the passage of time. If those specified performance goals are met, half of the associated PSUs eligible to vest will vest in the first quarter of 2021 and the other half will vest one year later, in each case, subject to continued employment on the applicable vesting date.
In June 2020, the Company deemed the achievement of certain PSU vesting conditions as being probable, and thus began recognizing stock-based compensation over the service period. As a result the Company recorded compensation costs, including a catch-up adjustment, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 totaling $23.9 million, of which $11.2 million, $10.9 million and $1.8 million was included in selling expenses, general and administrative expenses and operating expenses, respectively. The cumulative impact to basic and diluted net loss per share was $0.13 and $0.14 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

Equity
Class A Common Stock—The Company is authorized to issue 3,000,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Company’s Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on each matter on which they are entitled to vote. At June 30, 2020, there were 184,349,606 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding.
Preferred stock—The Company is authorized to issue 3,000,000 preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. At June 30, 2020, there are no preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Warrants—As of June 30, 2020, 5,009,171 public warrants were outstanding. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. The warrants became exercisable 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
As of June 30, 2020, 5,933,334 private placement warrants were outstanding. The private placement warrants are identical to the public warrants, except that the private placement warrants and the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants were not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the private placement warrants will be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or such purchasers’ permitted transferees. If the private placement warrants are held by someone other than the initial stockholders or their permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the public warrants.
The Company may call the warrants for redemption:
1.For cash:
•in whole and not in part;
•at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
•upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and
•if, and only if, the last reported closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
2.For Class A common stock:
•in whole and not in part;
•at a price equal to a number of Class A common stock to be determined by reference to a table included in the warrant agreement, based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A common stock;
•upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and
•if, and only if, the last reported closing price of the common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) on the trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
If the Company calls the warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement.
The exercise price and number of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants shares.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, 6,490,829 warrants were exercised for Class A common stock, for which the Company received $74.6 million of cash.
12. Commitments and Contingencies
Indemnification
Subject to certain limitations, the Company is obligated to indemnify its current and former directors, officers and employees with respect to certain litigation matters and investigations that arise in connection with their service to the Company. These obligations arise under the terms of its certificate of incorporation, its bylaws, applicable contracts, and Delaware and California law. The obligation to indemnify generally means that the Company is required to pay or reimburse these individuals’ reasonable legal expenses and possibly damages and other liabilities incurred in connection with these matters.
Legal
The Company is named from time to time as a party to lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business related to its sales, marketing, and the provision of its services and equipment claims. Actions filed against the Company include commercial, intellectual property, customer, and labor and employment related claims, including complaints of alleged wrongful termination and potential class action lawsuits regarding alleged violations of federal and state wage and hour and other laws. In addition, from time to time the Company is subject to examinations, investigations and/or enforcement actions by federal and state licensing and regulatory agencies and may face the risk of penalties for violation of financial services, consumer protections and other applicable laws and regulations. For example, in 2019, the Company received a subpoena in connection with an investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) concerning potential violations of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act (“FIRREA”). The Company also has received a civil investigative demand from the staff of the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) concerning potential violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) and the “Red Flags Rule” thereunder, and the Federal Trade Commission Act (“FTC Act”). In general, litigation can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of legal proceedings are difficult to predict and the costs incurred in litigation can be substantial. The Company believes the amounts provided in its financial statements are adequate in light of the probable and estimated liabilities. Factors that the Company considers in the determination of the likelihood of a loss and the estimate of the range of that loss in respect of legal matters include the merits of a particular matter, the nature of the matter, the length of time the matter has been pending, the procedural posture of the matter, how the Company intends to defend the matter, the likelihood of settling the matter and the anticipated range of a possible settlement. Because such matters are subject to many uncertainties, the ultimate outcomes are not predictable and there can be no assurances that the actual amounts required to satisfy alleged liabilities from the matters described above will not exceed the amounts reflected in the Company’s financial statements or that the matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
The Company regularly reviews outstanding legal claims and actions to determine if reserves for expected negative outcomes of such claims and actions are necessary. The Company had reserves for all such matters of approximately $2.8 million and $1.8 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. In conjunction with one of the settlements, the Company is obligated to pay certain future royalties, based on sales of future Products.
13. Leases
The Company has operating leases for corporate offices, warehouse facilities, research and development and other operating facilities, an aircraft, and other operating assets. The Company has finance leases for vehicles, office equipment and other warehouse equipment. The leases have remaining terms of 1 year to 9 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 10 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year.

14. Related Party Transactions
Transactions with Vivint Solar
The Company is a party to a number of agreements with Vivint Solar, Inc. (“Solar”). In August 2017, the Company entered into a sales dealer agreement with Solar, pursuant to which each company agreed to act as a non-exclusive dealer for the other party to market, promote and sell each other’s products. Net expenses charged to Solar in connection with these agreements was $0.4 million and $4.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $1.5 million and $6.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The balance due from Solar in connection with these agreements and other expenses paid on Solar’s behalf was immaterial at June 30, 2020 and $2.2 million at December 31, 2019.
On March 3, 2020, the Company and Solar amended and restated the sales dealer agreement to, among other things, add exclusivity obligations for both companies in certain territories and jurisdictions, expand the types of services each company is permitted to render thereunder, and to permit use of the services offered by Amigo, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in connection with the submission and processing of leads generated pursuant to the agreement. The amended and restated agreement has a one-year term, which automatically renews for successive one-year terms unless terminated earlier by either party upon 90 days’ prior written notice.
On March 3, 2020, the Company and Solar entered into a recruiting services agreement pursuant to which each company has agreed to assist the other in recruiting sales representatives to its direct-to-home sales force. The parties will pay each other certain fees for these services which will be calculated in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The Company and Vivint Solar have also agreed under the terms of the agreement not to solicit for employment any member of the other’s executive or senior management team, any dealer, or any of the other’s employees who primarily manage sales, installation or services of the other’s products and services. Such obligations will continue throughout the term of the agreement.
On March 3, 2020, Amigo entered into a Subscriber Generation Agreements with Solar and the Company to facilitate the use of the Amigo application for the submission and processing of leads generated pursuant to the amended and restated sales dealer agreement.
In connection with the amendment and restatement of the sales dealer agreement and the execution of the recruiting services agreement, the Company and Solar terminated the Marketing and Customer Relations Agreement, dated September 30, 2014 (as amended from time to time) and the Non-Competition Agreement, dated September 30, 2014 (as amended from time to time), in each case effective as of March 3, 2020.
Other Related-party Transactions
The Company incurred no expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2019 and $0.1 million and $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively for other related-party transactions including contributions to the charitable organization Vivint Gives Back and other services. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities included on the Company's balance sheets associated with these related-party transactions at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $0.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
On July 31, 2019, the Company completed a spin-off of Wireless. In connection with the spin-off, the Company and Wireless entered into a Transition Service Agreement (“TSA”), pursuant to which Vivint provides certain services for Wireless, including human resources, information technology, and facilities. Transactions associated with these services were $0.4 million and $0.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. In May 2020, the Company and Wireless entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which Wireless paid $2 million to the Company to settle all then outstanding TSA amounts and related charges. There was a $0.3 million balance due from Wireless in connection with the TSA as of June 30, 2020.
On November 16, 2012, the Company was acquired by an investor group comprised of certain investment funds affiliated with Blackstone Capital Partners VI L.P., and certain co-investors and management investors through certain mergers and related reorganization transactions (collectively, the “Reorganization”). In connection with the Reorganization, the Company engaged Blackstone Management Partners L.L.C. (“BMP”) to provide monitoring, advisory and consulting services on an ongoing basis. In consideration for these services, the Company agreed to pay an annual monitoring fee equal to the greater of (i) a minimum base fee of $1.7 million, subject to adjustments if the Company engages in a business combination or disposition that is deemed significant and (ii) the amount of the monitoring fee paid in respect of the immediately preceding fiscal year, without regard to any post-fiscal year “true-up” adjustments as determined by the agreement. The Company incurred expenses for such services of approximately $1.7 million and $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30,
2020 and 2019, respectively and $3.4 million and $2.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities at June 30, 2020, included a liability to BMP in regards to the monitoring fee for $3.4 million.
Under the support and services agreement, the Company also engaged BMP to arrange for Blackstone’s portfolio operations group to provide support services customarily provided by Blackstone’s portfolio operations group to Blackstone’s private equity portfolio companies of a type and amount determined by such portfolio services group to be warranted and appropriate. BMP will invoice the Company for such services based on the time spent by the relevant personnel providing such services during the applicable period but in no event shall the Company be obligated to pay more than $1.5 million during any calendar year. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 the Company incurred no costs associated with such services.
In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company and the parties to the support and services agreement entered into an amended and restated support and services agreement with BMP. The amended and restated support and services agreement became effective upon the consummation of the Merger and amended and restated the existing support and services agreement to, upon the consummation of the merger, (a) eliminate the requirement to pay a milestone payment to BMP upon the occurrence of an IPO, (b) for any fiscal year beginning after the consummation of the merger, (i) eliminate the Minimum Annual Fee and (ii) decrease the “true-up” of the annual Monitoring Fee payment to BMP to 1% of consolidated EBITDA and (c) upon the earlier of (1) the completion of Legacy Vivint Smart Home’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 or (2) the date upon which Blackstone owns less than 5% of the voting power of all of the shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of Vivint Smart Home’s or its direct or indirect controlling parent, and such stake has a fair market value (as determined by Blackstone) of less than $25 million (the “Exit Date”), the annual Monitoring Fee payment to BMP otherwise payable in connection with the agreement will cease and no other milestone payment or other similar payment will be owed by the Company to BMP.
Under the amended and restated support and services agreement, the Company and Legacy Vivint Smart Home have, through the Exit Date (or an earlier date determined by BMP), engaged BMP to arrange for Blackstone’s portfolio operations group to provide support services customarily provided by Blackstone’s portfolio operations group to Blackstone’s private equity portfolio companies of a type and amount determined by such portfolio services group to be warranted and appropriate. BMP may, at any time, choose not to provide any such services. Such services are provided without charge, other than for the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses as set forth in the amended and restated support and services agreement.

15. Employee Benefit Plan
Since January 2018, participants in the 401(k) plans have been eligible for the Company's matching program, which has been suspended, effective May 2, 2020. Under this matching program, the Company matches an employee’s contributions to the 401(k) savings plan dollar-for-dollar up to 1% of such employee’s eligible earnings and $0.50 for every $1.00 for the next 5% of such employee’s eligible earnings. The maximum match available under the 401(k) plan is 3.5% of the employee’s eligible earnings. For employees who have been employed by the Company for less than two years, matching contributions vest on the second anniversary of their date of hire. The Company's matching contributions to employees who have been employed by the Company for two years or more are fully vested.
Matching contributions that were made to the plans totaled $0.3 million and $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $2.3 million and $3.4 million six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
16. Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges
In March 2020, the Company announced a number of cost reduction initiatives that are expected to reduce certain of the Company’s General and Administrative, Customer Service, and Sales Support fixed costs. The Company completed the majority of these cost reduction initiatives in the first quarter of 2020. In addition to resulting in meaningful cost reductions, the Company’s initiatives are expected to streamline operations, focus engineering and innovation and provide a better focus on driving customer satisfaction. These actions resulted in one-time cash employee severance and termination benefits expenses of $20.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. These costs included $11.1 million in stock-based compensation expense associated with the accelerated vesting of stock-based awards to certain executives related to separation agreements.
Wireless Spin-Off
In July 2019, the Company completed a spin-off of Wireless. In connection with the spin-off, the equity interests of Wireless were distributed to the shareholders of Vivint Smart Home pro rata based on their respective holdings. As a result of the spin-off, the Company's additional paid-in capital was decreased by the net assets of Wireless of $4.8 million, as of the effective date of the spin-off. The spin-off did not represent a strategic shift that had (or is expected to have) a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results.
The results of Wireless are reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statement up through July 31, 2019. The following financial information presents the results of operations of Wireless for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019:

18. Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could be exercised or converted into common shares, and is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive shares to purchase common stock. As a result of the Business Combination, the Company has retrospectively adjusted the weighted average number of common shares outstanding prior to January 17, 2020 by multiplying them by the exchange ratio used to determine the number of common shares into which they converted.
The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss attributable per share to common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
Introduction
The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our consolidated results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained herein and the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019 contained in Amendment No. 2 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2020. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those described in the “Risk Factors” sections this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year 2019 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2020. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “we”, “us”, “our”, and “the Company” are intended to mean the business and operations of Vivint Smart Home, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, present the financial position and results of operations of Vivint Smart Home, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Business Overview
We are a smart home technology company. Our mission is to redefine the home experience through intelligently designed cloud-enabled solutions delivered to every home by people who care. Our brand name, Vivint, represents “to live intelligently”, and our solutions help our subscribers do just that. Creating a true smart home experience requires an end-to-end platform designed to drive broad consumer adoption. Our smart home platform is comprised of the following five pillars: (1) our Smart Home Operating System, (2) our AI-driven smart home automation and assistance software, Vivint Assist, (3) our portfolio of proprietary, internally developed smart devices, (4) our curated yet extensible partner-neutral ecosystem, and (5) our people delivering tech-enabled premium services, including consultative selling, professional installation, and support.
We are one of the largest smart home solutions providers in North America. Our leading platform has over 1.6 million subscribers as of June 30, 2020 and manages over 20 million devices. Using our solution, subscribers are able to interact with all aspects of their home with their voice or any mobile device-anytime, anywhere. They can engage with people at their front door; view live and recorded video inside and outside their home; control thermostats, locks, lights, and garage doors; and proactively manage the comings and goings of family, friends, and strangers. Our average subscriber engages with our smart home app multiple times per day.
Our go-to-market strategy is based on directly educating consumers about the value and benefits of a smart home experience. We reach consumers through a variety of highly efficient customer acquisition channels, including our direct-to-home, inside sales, and retail partnership programs. We continue to scale these efforts through our proprietary operations technology, by launching new and innovative Products and Services, and by building out our consultative sales channels. Our nationwide sales and service footprint covers 98% of U.S. zip codes. We continue to strengthen our relationships with existing subscribers by offering them the ability to use Vivint Flex Pay to finance upgrades of their existing system and to add new devices and features to their smart homes as our portfolio of offerings expands.
Transaction between Legacy Vivint Smart Home, Inc. and Vivint Smart Home Inc.
On January 17, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), we consummated the previously announced merger (the “Merger”) pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 15, 2019, by and among Maiden Merger Sub, Inc., a former subsidiary of us (“Merger Sub”), Legacy Vivint Smart Home, Inc. (f/k/a Vivint Smart Home, Inc.) (“Legacy Vivint Smart Home”) and us, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Amendment” and as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of December 18, 2019, by and among the Merger Sub, Legacy Vivint Smart Home and us.
In connection with the Closing, we changed our name from Mosaic Acquisition Corp. to Vivint Smart Home, Inc. Our Common Stock is now listed on the NYSE under the symbol “VVNT” and warrants to purchase the Common Stock are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “VVNT WS”.
Key Performance Measures
In evaluating our results, we review several key performance measures discussed below. We believe that the presentation of such metrics is useful to our investors and lenders because they are used to measure the value of companies such as ours with recurring revenue streams.
Total Subscribers
Total subscribers is the aggregate number of active smart home and security subscribers at the end of a given period.
Total Monthly Revenue
Total monthly revenue, or Total MR, is the average monthly total revenue recognized during the period.
Average Monthly Revenue per User
Average monthly revenue per user, or AMRU, is Total MR divided by average monthly Total Subscribers during a given period.
Total Monthly Service Revenue
Total monthly service revenue, or MSR, is the contracted recurring monthly service billings to our smart home and security subscribers, based on the Total Subscribers number as of the end of a given period.
Average Monthly Service Revenue per User
Average monthly service revenue per user, or AMSRU, is Total MSR divided by Total Subscribers at the end of a given period.
Attrition Rate
Attrition rate is the aggregate number of canceled smart home and security subscribers during the prior 12 month period divided by the monthly weighted average number of Total Subscribers based on the Total Subscribers at the beginning and end of each month of a given period. Subscribers are considered canceled when they terminate in accordance with the terms of their contract, are terminated by us or if payment from such subscribers is deemed uncollectible (when at least four monthly billings become past due). If a sale of a service contract to third parties occurs, or a subscriber relocates but continues their service, we do not consider this as a cancellation. If a subscriber transfers their service contract to a new subscriber, we do not consider this as a cancellation.
Average Subscriber Lifetime
Average subscriber lifetime, in number of months, is 100% divided by our expected long-term annualized attrition rate (which is currently estimated at 13%) multiplied by 12 months.
Net Service Cost per Subscriber
Net service cost per subscriber is the average monthly service costs incurred during the period (both period and capitalized service costs), including monitoring, customer service, field service and other service support costs, less total non-recurring Smart Home Services billings for the period divided by average monthly Total Subscribers for the same period.
Net Service Margin
Net service margin is the monthly average MSR for the period, less total average net service costs for the period divided by the monthly average MSR for the period.
New Subscribers
New subscribers is the aggregate number of net new smart home and security subscribers originated during a given period. This metric excludes new subscribers acquired by the transfer of a service contract from one subscriber to another.
Net Subscriber Acquisition Costs per New Subscriber
Net subscriber acquisition costs per New Subscriber is the net cash cost to create new smart home and security subscribers during a given 12 month period divided by New Subscribers for that period. These costs include commissions, Products, installation, marketing, sales support and other allocations (general and administrative and overhead); less upfront payment received from the sale of Products associated with the initial installation, and installation fees. These costs exclude capitalized contract costs and upfront proceeds associated with contract modifications.
Total Monthly Service Revenue for New Subscribers
Total Monthly Service Revenue for New Subscribers is the contracted recurring monthly service billings to our New Subscribers during the prior 12 month period.
Total Bookings
Total bookings is Total Monthly Service Revenue for New Subscribers multiplied by Average Subscriber Lifetime, plus total Product revenue to be recognized over the contract term from New Subscribers during the prior 12 month period.
Total Backlog
Total backlog is total unrecognized Product revenue plus total Service revenue expected to be recognized over the remaining subscriber lifetime for Total Subscribers.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation (or non-cash compensation), certain financing fees, and certain other non-recurring expenses or gains.
Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and is subject to important limitations. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies.
We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in industries similar to ours. In addition, targets based on Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures we use to evaluate our management’s performance for purposes of determining their compensation under our incentive plans.
Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA:
•excludes certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
•does not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized, including capitalized contract costs, that may have to be replaced in the future;
•does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
•does not reflect the significant interest expense to service our debt;
•does not reflect the monthly financing fees incurred associated with our obligations under Vivint Flex Pay; and
•does not include non-cash stock-based employee compensation expense and other non-cash charges.
We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss). We have included the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss for the periods presented below under Key Operating Metrics - Adjusted EBITDA.
Recent Developments
COVID-19 update
In December 2019, a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) was reported and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic.
Operational update. During the first six months of 2020, we implemented a number of operational changes to continue to provide the same level of service our customers have come to rely on, while caring for the well-being of our customers and employees:
•We have transitioned more than 1,500 customer care professionals to effective work-from-home environments where they continue to provide uninterrupted customer service.
•We are maintaining our geographically dispersed central monitoring stations to provide 24/7 professional monitoring services for all emergencies.
• We have instituted work-from-home capabilities for most corporate employees across all our facilities, following state and local guidelines.
•Based on the latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) guidelines, we have implemented new operating and safety procedures to keep both our customers and employees safe, including:
•Conducting daily “fitness-for-duty” assessments for all customer-facing employees, which includes a temperature and symptoms check.
•Contacting customers before our visit to determine if anyone in the home is experiencing signs of illness or flu-like symptoms, or has been exposed to COVID-19, and rescheduling appointments when needed.
•Following CDC guidelines for social distancing and hand washing, including cleaning workspaces and surfaces, and not shaking hands with customers.
•Using protective sanitary equipment during service visits, such as disposable gloves, masks and hand sanitizer.
•For all company campus facilities, requiring employees to wear face coverings in all common areas and meeting rooms where social distancing is not practical.
•We are providing up to 14 days of paid time off for any employee who has contracted COVID-19 or is required to be quarantined by a public health authority.
In addition, we have made a change to our business in Canada. Each account sold in Canada has historically required a significant cash investment by our company. Effective June 10, 2020, Vivint Canada, Inc. no longer sells new equipment or accounts through its door-to-door sales channel. We will continue to sell in Canada through online marketing and our inside sales channels. We will continue to operate in Canada, with dedicated support and services.
During the second quarter of 2020, several of the states in which we operate began to resume business operations on a phased basis. Accordingly, we have resumed door-to-door sales activities in markets where it is possible. Due to ongoing state restrictions and phased re-openings, we were forced to delay deployment of our summer direct-to-home sales representatives by up to six weeks in some markets. This was a significant driver of the decrease in the number of new subscribers generated through our direct-to-home sales channel for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same time period in 2019. Despite the gradual reopening on a state-specific basis, the United States continues to struggle with rolling outbreaks of the COVID-19 virus, and the full impact of the pandemic on our business and results of operations will depend on the ultimate duration of the pandemic as well as the severity of any resurgence in COVID-19 cases in the future. While we have not experienced a significant adverse financial impact from the COVID-19 pandemic through the second quarter of 2020, our business could be adversely impacted in 2020, and potentially beyond, if the COVID-19 pandemic continues for an extended period of time and/or if government stimulus programs are discontinued or reduced.
Financial update. We have implemented business continuity plans intended to continue to ensure the health, safety, and well-being of our customers, employees and communities, and to protect the financial and operational strength of the company. We have reduced discretionary spending and received pricing concessions from certain of our key vendors, some of which are short-term in nature, in each case to preserve cash and improve our cost structure. This reduced spending may not be sustainable over time without negatively impacting our results of operations. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, during the first six months of 2020 we also drew down the full amount available to us on our revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure to increase our cash position and preserve liquidity and financial flexibility. By the end of the second quarter of 2020, we had paid back a portion of our revolving credit facility, as we gained more clarity surrounding the financial markets.
As discussed above with respect to the operational challenges posed by the pandemic, the broader implications of COVID-19 on our results of operations and overall financial performance remain uncertain. Depending on the breadth and duration of the outbreak, which we are not currently able to predict, the adverse impact could be material. Our business has been affected, and could be adversely affected in the future, by COVID-19, including our ability to maintain compliance with our debt covenants, due to the following:
•Our ability to generate new subscribers, particularly in our direct-to home and retail sales channels.
•Increases in customer attrition and deferment or forgiveness of our customers’ monthly service fees, due to the increased unemployment rates and reduced wages. These could increase our allowance for bad debt, provision for credit losses, and losses on our derivative liability associated with the consumer financing program
•The impact of the pandemic and actions taken in response thereto on global and regional economies and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on unemployment rates and consumer discretionary spending.
•Ability to obtain the equipment necessary to generate new subscriber accounts or service our existing subscriber base, due to potential supply chain disruption.
•Limitations on our ability to enter our customer’s homes to perform installs or equipment repairs.
•Our ability to access capital, or to access such capital at reasonable economic terms.
•Inefficiencies and potential incremental costs resulting from the requirement for many of our employees to work from home.
These factors could become indicators of asset impairments in the future, depending on the significance and duration of the disruption. While short-term, temporary disruptions may not indicate an impairment; the effects of a prolonged outbreak may cause asset impairments.
We continue to monitor the situation and guidance from international and domestic authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities, and may be required or elect to take additional actions based on their recommendations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In preparing our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can have a significant impact on our revenue, loss from operations and net loss, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. At least quarterly, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates and make changes accordingly. Historically, our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to our critical accounting estimates have not differed materially from actual results. We believe that the assumptions, judgments and estimates involved in the accounting for revenue recognition, deferred revenue, capitalized contract costs, derivatives, retail installment contract receivables, allowance for doubtful accounts, loss contingencies, valuation of intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets, fair value and income taxes have the greatest potential impact on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting estimates. For information on our significant accounting policies, see Note 1 to our accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Revenue Recognition
We offer our customers smart home services combining Products, including a proprietary control panel, door and window sensors, door locks, security cameras and smoke alarms; installation; and a proprietary back-end cloud platform software and Services. These together create an integrated system that allows our customers to monitor, control and protect their home. Our customers are buying this integrated system that provides them with these Smart Home Services. The number and type of Products purchased by a customer depends on their desired functionality. Because the Products and Services included in the customer’s contract are integrated and highly interdependent, and because they must work together to deliver the Smart Home Services, we have concluded that installed Products, related installation and Services contracted for by the customer are generally not distinct within the context of the contract and, therefore, constitute a single, combined performance obligation. Revenues for this single, combined performance obligation are recognized on a straight-line basis over the customer’s contract term, which is the period in which the parties to the contract have enforceable rights and obligations. We have determined that certain contracts that do not require a long-term commitment for monitoring services by the customer contain a material right to renew the contract, because the customer does not have to purchase Products upon renewal. Proceeds allocated to the material right are recognized over the period of benefit, which is generally three years.
The majority of our subscription contracts are between three and five years in length and are generally non-cancelable. These contracts with customers generally convert into month-to-month agreements at the end of the initial term, and some customer contracts are month-to-month from inception. Payment for recurring monitoring and other Smart Home Services is generally due in advance on a monthly basis.
Sales of Products and other one-time fees such as service or installation fees are invoiced to the customer at the time of sale. Any Products or Services that are considered separate performance obligations are recognized when those Products or Services are delivered. Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are not included in revenue. Payments received or amounts billed in advance of revenue recognition are reported as deferred revenue.
We consider Products, related installation, and our proprietary back-end cloud platform software and services an integrated system that allows our customers to monitor, control and protect their homes. These Smart Home Services are accounted for as a single performance obligation that is recognized over the customer’s contract term, which is generally three to five years.
Deferred Revenue
Our deferred revenues primarily consist of amounts for sales (including upfront proceeds) of Smart Home Services. Deferred revenues are recognized over the term of the related performance obligation, which is generally three to five years.
Capitalized Contract Costs
Capitalized contract costs represent the costs directly related and incremental to the origination of new contracts, modification of existing contracts or to the fulfillment of the related subscriber contracts. These include commissions, other compensation and related costs incurred directly for the origination and installation of new or upgraded customer contracts, as well as the cost of Products installed in the customer home at the commencement or modification of the contract. These costs are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit that we have determined to be five years. The period of benefit of five years is longer than a typical contract term because of anticipated contract renewals. We apply this period of benefit to our entire portfolio of contracts. We update our estimate of the period of benefit periodically and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the period of benefit could change significantly. Such changes, if any, are accounted for prospectively as a change in estimate. Amortization of capitalized contract costs is included in “Depreciation and Amortization” on the consolidated statements of operations. These deferred costs are periodically reviewed for impairment. Contract costs not directly related and incremental to the origination of new contracts, modification of existing contracts or to the fulfillment of the related subscriber contracts are expensed as incurred. These costs include those associated with housing, marketing and recruiting, non-direct lead generation costs, certain portions of sales commissions and residuals, overhead and other costs considered not directly and specifically tied to the origination of a particular subscriber.
On the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, capitalized contract costs are classified as operating activities and reported as “Capitalized contract costs – deferred contract costs” as these assets represent deferred costs associated with subscriber contracts.
Consumer Financing Program
Vivint Flex Pay became our primary sales model beginning in March 2017. Under Vivint Flex Pay, customers pay separately for the products (including control panel, security peripheral equipment, smart home equipment, and related installation) (“Products”) and Vivint's smart home and security services (“Services”). The customer has the following three ways to pay for the Products: (1) qualified customers in the United States may finance the purchase of Products through a third-party financing provider (“Consumer Financing Program”), (2) we offer to some customers not eligible for the Consumer Financing Program, but who qualify under our underwriting criteria, the option to enter into a retail installment contract (“RIC”) directly with us, or (3) customers may purchase the Products at the outset of the service contract by check, automatic clearing house payments (“ACH”), credit or debit card. In the future, we expect the number of new subscriber originations financed through RICs to be minimal.
Under the Consumer Financing Program, qualified customers are eligible for loans provided by third-party financing providers of up to $4,000. The annual percentage rates on these loans range between 0% and 9.99%, and are either installment loans or revolving loans with a 42 or 60 month term. Most loan terms are determined by the customer's credit quality.
For certain third-party provider loans, we pay a monthly fee based on either the average daily outstanding balance of the loans or the number of outstanding loans, depending on the third-party financing provider and we share liability for credit losses, with the Company being responsible for between 5% and 100% of lost principal balances. Additionally, we are responsible for reimbursing certain third-party financing providers for the credit card transaction fees associated with the loans. Because of the nature of these provisions, we record a derivative liability at its fair value when the third-party financing provider originates loans to customers, which reduces the amount of estimated revenue recognized on the provision of the services. The derivative liability represents the estimated remaining amounts to be paid to the third-party provider by us related to outstanding loans, including the monthly fees based on either the outstanding loan balances or the number of outstanding loans, shared liabilities for credit losses and customer payment processing fees. The derivative liability is reduced as payments are made by us to the third-party financing provider. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the derivative liability are realized
through other expenses (income), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 9 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
For other third-party loans, we receive net proceeds (net of fees and expected losses) for which we have no further obligation to the third-party. We record these net proceeds to deferred revenue.
Retail Installment Contract Receivables
For subscribers that enter into a RIC to finance the purchase of Products and related installation, we record a receivable for the amount financed. Gross RIC receivables are reduced for (i) expected write-offs of uncollectible balances over the term of the RIC and (ii) a present value discount of the expected cash flows using a risk adjusted market interest rate. Therefore, the RIC receivables equal the present value of the expected cash flows to be received by us over the term of the RIC, evaluated on a pool basis. RICs are pooled based on customer credit quality, contract length and geography. At the time of installation, we record a long-term note receivable within long-term notes receivables and other assets, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for the present value of the receivables that are expected to be collected beyond 12 months of the reporting date. The unbilled receivable amounts that are expected to be collected within 12 months of the reporting date are included as a short-term notes receivable within accounts and notes receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The billed amounts of notes receivables are included in accounts receivable within accounts and notes receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
We impute the interest on the RIC receivable using a risk adjusted market interest rate and record it as a reduction to deferred revenue and to the face amount of the related receivable. The risk adjusted interest rate considers a number of factors, including credit quality of the subscriber base and other qualitative considerations such as macro-economic factors. The imputed interest income is recognized over the term of the RIC contract as recurring and other revenue on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
When we determine that there are RIC receivables that have become uncollectible, we record an adjustment to the allowance and reduce the related note receivable balance. On a regular basis, we also reassess the expected remaining cash flows, based on historical RIC write-off trends, current market conditions and both Company and third-party forecast data . In accordance with Topic 326, if we determine there is a change in expected remaining cash flows, the total amount of this change for all RICs is recorded in the current period to the provision for credit losses, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. We recorded a $1.5 million provision for credit losses during the six months ended June 30, 2020, primarily associated with the expected impact of COVID-19. Account balances are written-off if collection efforts are unsuccessful and future collection is unlikely based on the length of time from the day accounts become past due.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from subscribers for recurring monthly monitoring Services, amounts due from third-party financing providers and the billed portion of RIC receivables. The accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts and are non-interest bearing and are included within accounts and notes receivable, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimate this allowance based on historical collection experience, subscriber attrition rates, current market conditions and both Company and third-party forecast data. When we determine that there are accounts receivable that are uncollectible, they are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a $1.1 million provision for the expected impact of COVID-19 in accordance with Topic 326.
Loss Contingencies
We record accruals for various contingencies including legal proceedings and other claims that arise in the normal course of business. The accruals are based on judgment, the probability of losses and, where applicable, the consideration of opinions of legal counsel. We record an accrual when a loss is deemed probable to occur and is reasonably estimable. Factors that we consider in the determination of the likelihood of a loss and the estimate of the range of that loss in respect of legal matters include the merits of a particular matter, the nature of the litigation, the length of time the matter has been pending, the procedural posture of the matter, whether we intend to defend the matter, the likelihood of settling for an insignificant amount and the likelihood of the plaintiff accepting an amount in this range. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Purchase accounting requires that all assets and liabilities acquired in a transaction be recorded at fair value on the acquisition date, including identifiable intangible assets separate from goodwill. For significant acquisitions, we obtain independent appraisals and valuations of the intangible (and certain tangible) assets acquired and certain assumed obligations as well as equity. Identifiable intangible assets include customer relationships and other purchased and internally developed technology. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired.
The estimated fair values and useful lives of identified intangible assets are based on many factors, including estimates and assumptions of future operating performance and cash flows of the acquired business, estimates of cost avoidance, the nature of the business acquired, the specific characteristics of the identified intangible assets and our historical experience and that of the acquired business. The estimates and assumptions used to determine the fair values and useful lives of identified intangible assets could change due to numerous factors, including product demand, market conditions, regulations affecting the business model of our operations, technological developments, economic conditions and competition.
We conduct a goodwill impairment analysis annually in the fourth fiscal quarter, as of October 1, and as necessary if changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the fair value of our reporting units may be less than their carrying amounts. When indicators of impairment do not exist and certain accounting criteria are met, we are able to evaluate goodwill impairment using a qualitative approach. When necessary, our quantitative goodwill impairment test consists of two steps. The first step requires that we compare the estimated fair value of our reporting units to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s net assets, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is not considered to be impaired and no further testing is required. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of its net assets, we would be required to complete the second step of the test by analyzing the fair value of its goodwill. If the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recorded. Our reporting units are determined based on our current reporting structure, which as of June 30, 2020 consisted of one reporting unit. As of June 30, 2020, there were no changes in facts and circumstances since the most recent annual impairment analysis to indicate impairment existed.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Long-lived Assets
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term for assets under finance leases, whichever is shorter. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over the remaining estimated economic life of the underlying technology or relationships, which ranges from two to ten years. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or in a pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible asset are consumed. Amortization expense associated with leased assets is included with depreciation expense. Routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.
We review long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, capitalized contract costs, and definite-lived intangibles for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We consider whether or not indicators of impairment exist on a regular basis and as part of each quarterly and annual financial statement close process. Factors we consider in determining whether or not indicators of impairment exist include market factors and patterns of customer attrition. If indicators of impairment are identified, we estimate the fair value of the assets. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
We conduct an indefinite-lived intangible impairment analysis annually as of October 1, and as necessary if changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the fair value of our indefinite-lived intangibles may be less than the carrying amount. When indicators of impairment do not exist and certain accounting criteria are met, we are able to evaluate indefinite-lived intangible impairment using a qualitative approach. When necessary, our quantitative impairment test consists of two steps. The first step requires that we compare the estimated fair value of our indefinite-lived intangibles to the carrying value. If the fair value is greater than the carrying value, the intangibles are not considered to be impaired and no further testing is required. If the fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss in an amount equal to the difference is recorded.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes based on the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets when it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
We recognize the effect of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Our policy for recording interest and penalties is to record such items as a component of the provision for income taxes.
Changes in tax laws and rates could also affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities in the future. We record the effect of a tax rate or law change on our deferred tax assets and liabilities in the period of enactment. Future tax rate or law changes could have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results
Our future operating results and cash flows are dependent upon a number of opportunities, challenges and other factors, including our ability to efficiently grow our subscriber base, expand our Product and Service offerings to generate increased revenue per user, provide high quality Products and subscriber service to maximize subscriber lifetime value and improve the leverage of our business model.
Key factors affecting our operating results include the following:
Subscriber Lifetime
Our ability to retain subscribers has a significant impact on our financial results, including revenues, operating income, and operating cash flows. Because we operate a business built on recurring revenues, subscriber lifetime is a key determinant of our operating success. Our Average Subscriber Lifetime is approximately 92 months (or 8 years) as of June 30, 2020. If our expected long-term annualized attrition rate increased by 1% to 14%, Average Subscriber Lifetime would decrease to approximately 86 months. Conversely, if our expected attrition decreased by 1% to 12%, our Average Subscriber Lifetime would increase to approximately 100 months. A portion of the subscriber base can be expected to cancel its service every year. Subscribers may choose not to renew or may terminate their contracts for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, relocation, cost, switching to a competitor’s service or service issues. We analyze our retention by tracking the number of subscribers who remain as a percentage of the monthly average number of subscribers at the end of each 12 month period. We caution investors that not all companies, investors and analysts in our industry define retention in this manner.
The table below presents our smart home and security subscriber data for the twelve months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019:

Historically, we have experienced an increased level of subscriber cancellations in the months surrounding the expiration of such subscribers’ initial contract term. Attrition in any twelve month period may be impacted by the number of subscriber contracts reaching the end of their initial term in such period. Attrition in the twelve months ended June 30, 2020 reflects the effect of the 2014 60-month, 2015 60-month and 2016 42-month contracts reaching the end of their initial contract term. Attrition in the twelve months ended June 30, 2019 reflects the effect of the 2013 60-month, 2014 60-month and 2015 42-
month contracts reaching the end of their initial contract term. We believe this trend in cancellations at the end of the initial contract term is comparable to other companies within our industry.
Our subscribers are the foundation of our recurring revenue-based model. Our operating results are affected by the level of our net acquisition costs to generate those subscribers and the value of Products and Services purchased by them. A reduction in net subscriber acquisition costs or an increase in the total value of Products or Services purchased by a new subscriber increases the life-time value of that subscriber, which in turn, improves our operating results and cash flows over time.
The net upfront cost of adding incremental subscribers is a key factor impacting our ability to scale. Vivint Flex Pay has made it more affordable to accelerate the growth in New Subscribers. Prior to Vivint Flex Pay, we recovered the cost of equipment installed in subscribers’ homes over time through their monthly service billings. From the introduction of Vivint Flex Pay in early 2017 through June 30, 2020, 20% of subscribers have financed their equipment purchases through RICs, which we fund through our balance sheet. We expect the percentage of subscriber contracts financed through RICs to continue decreasing over time, as we expect the number of future new subscriber originations financed through RICs to be minimal . In addition, since the introduction of Vivint Flex Pay in 2017, 100% of new subscribers have either opted to use this program to finance their equipment costs or paid for their equipment themselves at the time of contract origination. This has greatly reduced our net cost per acquisition, as well as the balance sheet impact of acquiring subscribers. Moving forward, we will continue to explore ways to grow our subscriber base in a cost-effective manner through our existing sales and marketing channels, through the growth of our financing programs, as well as through strategic partnerships and new channels, as these opportunities arise.
We believe the Vivint Flex Pay program will result in higher retention and thus greater subscriber lifetime values over time. Existing subscribers are also able to use Vivint Flex Pay to upgrade their systems or to add new Products and Services, which we believe further increases subscriber lifetime value. This positively impacts our operating performance, and we anticipate that adding additional financing options to the Vivint Flex Pay program will generate additional revenue growth and a subsequent increase in subscriber lifetime value.
Sales and Marketing Efficiency
Our continued ability to attract and sign new subscribers in a cost-effective manner will be a key determinant of our future operating performance. Because our direct-to-home and national inside sales channels are currently our primary means of subscriber acquisition, we have invested heavily in scaling these teams. There is a lag in the productivity of new hires, which we anticipate will improve over the course of their tenure, impacting our subscriber acquisition rates and overall operating success. These Smart Home Pros are instrumental to subscriber growth in the regions we cover, and their continued productivity is vital to our future success.
Generating subscriber growth through these investments in our sales teams depends, in part, on our ability to launch cost-effective marketing campaigns, both online and offline. This is particularly true for our national inside sales channel, because national inside sales fields inbound requests from subscribers who find us using online search and submitting our on-site contact form. Our marketing campaigns are created to attract potential subscribers and build awareness of our brand across all our sales channels. We also believe that building brand awareness is important to countering the competition we face from other companies selling their solutions in the geographies we serve, particularly in those markets where our direct-to-home sales representatives are present.
Expansion of Platform Monetization
As smart home technology develops, we will continue expanding the breadth and depth of our offerings to reflect the growing needs of our subscriber base and focus on expanding our platform through the addition of new smart home experiences and use cases. As a result of our investments to date, we have over 1.6 million active customers on our smart home platform. We will continue to develop our Smart Home Operating System to include new complex automation capabilities, use case scenarios, and comprehensive device integrations. Our platform supports over 20 million connected devices, as of June 30, 2020.
With each new Product, Service, or feature we add to our platform, we create an opportunity to generate revenue, either through sales to our existing subscribers or through the acquisition of new subscribers. As a result, we anticipate that offering a broader range of smart home experiences will allow us to grow revenue, because it improves our ability to offer tailored service packages to subscribers with different needs. We believe this expansion of our Product and Service offerings will allow us to build our subscriber base, while maintaining or improving margins.
Whether we upsell existing subscribers or acquire new ones, expansion of our platform and corresponding monetization strategies directly impacts our revenue growth and our average revenue per user, and therefore, our operating results.
Subscribers who contract for a smart home are signing up for our combined proprietary smart home devices and tech-enabled service offerings. At the time of signing, subscribers choose the equipment that matches their smart home needs. Because we cover 98% of US zip codes, our service costs greatly impact our operating margins. Over time, as our organization grows, we should achieve economies of scale on our service costs. While we anticipate that our service costs per subscriber will decline over time, an unanticipated increase in service costs could negatively impact our profitability moving forward.
Investment in Future Projects
To date, we have made significant investments in the development of our organization, and expect to leverage these investments to continue expanding our Product and Service offerings over time, including integration with third party products to drive future revenue. Our ability to expand our smart home platform and to monetize the platform as it develops will significantly impact our operating performance and profitability in the future.
We believe that the smart home of the future will be an ecosystem in which businesses will seek to deliver products and services to subscribers in a way that addresses the individual subscriber’s lifestyle and needs. As the smart home becomes the setting for the delivery of a wide range of these products and services, including healthcare, entertainment, home maintenance, elder care, beauty, and consumer goods, we hope to become the hub of this ecosystem and the strategic partner of choice for the businesses delivering these products and services.
Our success in connecting with business partners who integrate with our Smart Home Operating System in order to reach and interact with our subscriber base is expected to be a key determinant of our continued operating success. We expect that additional partnerships will generate incremental revenue, because we will share in the revenue generated by each partner-provided product or service sale that occurs as a result of integration with our smart home platform. If we are able to continue expanding our curated set of partnerships with influential companies, as we already have with Google, Amazon, Chamberlain and Philips, we believe that this will help us to increase our revenue and resulting profitability.
Our ability to introduce a full suite of high-quality innovative new offerings that further expands our existing smart home platform will affect our ability to retain, grow and further monetize our subscriber base. Furthermore, we believe that by vertically integrating the development and design of our Products and Services with our existing sales and subscriber service activities allows us to more quickly respond to market needs, and better understand our subscribers’ interactions and engagement with our Products and Services. This provides critical data that we expect to enable us to continue improving the power, usability and intelligence of these Products and Services. We expect to continue investing in technologies that will make our platform more valuable and engaging for subscribers.
Basis of Presentation
We conduct business through one operating segment, Vivint. We primarily operate in two geographic regions: United States and Canada. See Note 17 in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for more information about our geographic segments.
Components of Results of Operations
Total Revenues
Recurring and other revenue. Our revenues are generated through the sale and installation of our Smart Home Services contracted for by our subscribers. Recurring Smart Home Services for our subscriber contracts are billed directly to the subscriber in advance, generally monthly, pursuant to the terms of subscriber contracts and recognized ratably over the service period. Revenues from Products are deferred and generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the customer contract term, the amount of which is dependent on the total sales price of Products sold. Imputed interest associated with RIC receivables is recognized over the initial term of the RIC. The amount of revenue from Services is dependent upon which of our service offerings is included in the subscriber contracts. Our smart home and video offerings generally provide higher service revenue than our base smart home service offering. Historically, we have generally offered contracts to subscribers that range in length from 36 to 60 months that are subject to automatic monthly renewal after the expiration of the initial term. In addition, to a lesser extent, we have contracts that are offered as month-to-month at the time of origination. At the end of each monthly period, the portion of recurring fees related to services not yet provided are deferred and recognized as these services are provided.
Total Costs and Expenses
Operating expenses. Operating expenses primarily consists of labor associated with monitoring and servicing subscribers and labor and expenses associated with Products used in service repairs. We also incur equipment costs associated
with excess and obsolete inventory and rework costs related to Products removed from subscribers' homes. In addition, a portion of general and administrative expenses, comprised of certain human resources, facilities and information technology costs are allocated to operating expenses. This allocation is primarily based on employee headcount and facility square footage occupied. Because our full-time smart home professionals (“Smart Home Pros”) perform most subscriber installations related to customer moves, customer upgrades or generated through our national inside sales channels, the costs incurred within field service associated with these installations are allocated to capitalized contract costs. We generally expect our operating expenses to increase in absolute dollars as the total number of subscribers we service continues to grow, but to remain relatively constant in the near to intermediate term as a percentage of our revenue.
Selling expenses. Selling expenses are primarily comprised of costs associated with housing for our direct-to-home sales representatives, advertising and lead generation, marketing and recruiting, certain portions of sales commissions (residuals), stock-based compensation, overhead (including allocation of certain general and administrative expenses) and other costs not directly tied to a specific subscriber origination. These costs are expensed as incurred. We generally expect our selling expenses to increase in absolute dollars as the total number of subscriber originations continues to grow, but to remain relatively constant in the near to intermediate term as a percentage of our revenue.
General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consist largely of finance, legal, research and development (“R&D”), human resources, information technology and executive management expenses, including stock-based compensation expense. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded within various components of our costs and expenses. General and administrative expenses also include the provision for doubtful accounts. We allocate approximately one-third of our gross general and administrative expenses, excluding the provision for doubtful accounts, into operating and selling expenses in order to reflect the overall costs of those components of the business. We generally expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars to support the overall growth in our business, but to decrease in the near to intermediate term as a percentage of our revenue.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization consists of depreciation from property, plant and equipment, amortization of equipment leased under finance leases, capitalized contract costs and intangible assets. We generally expect our depreciation and amortization expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we grow our business and increase the number of new subscribers originated on an annual basis, but to remain relatively constant in the near to intermediate term as a percentage of our revenue.
Restructuring Expenses. Restructuring expenses are comprised of costs incurred in relation to activities to exit or dispose of portions of our business that do not qualify as discontinued operations. Expenses for related termination benefits are recognized at the date we notify the employee, unless the employee must provide future service, in which case the benefits are expensed ratably over the future service period. Liabilities related to termination of a contract are measured and recognized at fair value when the contract does not have any future economic benefit to the entity and the fair value of the liability is determined based on the present value of the remaining obligation.

Recurring and other revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased $24.9 million, or 9%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. An increase of approximately 7% in Total Subscribers accounted for approximately
$19.2 million of the increase in recurring and other revenue, while an increase in AMRU provided an increase of approximately $7.5 million. This increase in revenues was offset by a decrease of $1.2 million associated with our former wireless internet business, which was spun out in July 2019. When compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, currency translation negatively affected recurring and other revenues by $0.6 million, as computed on a constant foreign currency basis.

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $10.0 million, or 11%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease included a $4.0 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily associated with grants of equity awards in the first and second quarter of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, operating expenses decreased by $14.0 million, or 15%, primarily due to decreases of $13.2 million in personnel and related support costs as we experienced lower service call volumes, $2.5 million in costs associated with our former wireless internet business which was spun out in July 2019 and $1.4 million in costs associated with our sales pilot programs. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $2.0 million in third-party contracted servicing costs and $0.7 million in equipment and related costs.
Selling expenses, excluding capitalized contract costs, increased by $6.8 million, or 12%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. This increase included a $19.5 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily associated with grants of equity awards in the first and second quarter of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, selling expenses decreased by $12.7 million, or 22%, primarily due to decreases of $3.7 million in facility and housing related costs mainly from the delayed deployment of our summer direct-to-home sales, $3.3 million in costs associated with our sales pilot programs, $3.0 million in personnel and related costs, $1.1 million in marketing costs and $0.7 million in customer credit reporting costs.
General and administrative expenses increased $11.9 million, or 25%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. This increase included a $22.3 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily associated with grants of equity awards in the first and second quarter of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, general and administrative expenses decreased by $10.4 million, or 22%, primarily due to decreases of $6.1 million in personnel and related support costs, $2.4 million in costs associated with our former wireless internet business which was spun out in July 2019, $0.7 million in research and development costs and $0.7 million in provisions for bad debt and credit losses.
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased $5.7 million, or 4%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to increased amortization of capitalized contract costs related to new subscribers.

Interest expense decreased $11.3 million, or 17%, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to lower outstanding debt as a result of the use of proceeds from the Business Combination to pay down debt and the refinancing transaction that occurred in February 2020 (See Note 3 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements).
Other income, net increased to $8.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The other net income during the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to a change of $4.2 million from our debt modification and extinguishment in February 2020, a foreign currency exchange gain of $2.8 million and a $2.0 million gain on settlement of outstanding receivables from Wireless which was previously deemed uncollectible. The other income, net during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to a gain on foreign currency exchange of $1.2 million, offset by a loss of $0.8 million on debt modification and extinguishment.

Recurring and other revenue increased $51.9 million, or 9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. An increase in Total Subscribers of approximately 7% led to an increase of approximately $39.7 million in recurring and other revenue and an increase in AMRU resulted in an increase of approximately $15.4 million in recurring and other revenue. This increase in revenues was offset by a decrease of $2.4 million associated with our former wireless internet business which was spun out in July 2019. When compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, currency translation negatively affected recurring and other revenue by $0.8 million, as computed on a constant foreign currency basis.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $9.7 million, or 6%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease included a $5.5 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily associated with grants of equity awards in the first and second quarters of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, operating expenses decreased by $15.2 million, or 9%, primarily due to decreases of $14.7 million in personnel and related support costs as we experienced lower service call volumes, $4.7 million in costs associated with our former wireless internet business which was spun out in July 2019 and $1.4 million in costs associated with our retail channel and other sales pilots. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $3.6 million in third-party contracted servicing and $1.7 million in equipment costs.
Selling expenses, excluding capitalized contract costs, increased by $17.4 million, or 17%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase included a $26.9 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily associated with grants of equity awards in the first and second quarters of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, selling expenses decreased by $9.5 million, or 9%, primarily due to decreases of $4.7 million in costs associated with our retail channel and other sales pilots, $4.6 million in facility and housing costs primarily associated with the delayed deployment of our summer direct-to-home sales and $1.2 million in personnel and related support costs. These decreases were offset by an increase of $2.0 million in information technology costs.
General and administrative expenses increased $18.6 million, or 20%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase included a $29.7 million increase in stock-based compensation primarily associated with grants of equity awards in the first and second quarters of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, general and administrative expenses decreased by $11.1 million, or 12%, primarily due to decreases of $7.7 million in personnel and related support costs, $4.5 million in costs associated with our former wireless internet business which was spun out in July 2019, $1.5 million in research and development costs and $0.8 million in information technology costs. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $3.0 million in provisions for bad debt and credit losses, of which $2.6 million is associated with the implementation of ASC Topic 326 which was primarily driven by expected credit losses and bad debt associated with the COVID-19 pandemic (see Note 1 in the accompanying unaudited financials for further discussion).
Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased $13.7 million, or 5%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to increased amortization of capitalized contract costs related to new subscribers.
Restructuring expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 related to employee severance and termination benefits expenses (See Note 16 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements).

Interest expense decreased $9.8 million, or 8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019, due primarily to lower outstanding debt as a result of the use of proceeds from the Business Combination to pay down debt and the refinancing transaction that occurred in February 2020 (See Note 3 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements).

The other net loss during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to a $12.7 million loss on our debt modification and extinguishment in February 2020, a foreign currency exchange loss of $3.5 million, a loss on our derivative instrument of $2.2 million and a $2.1 million loss on disposal of assets, partially offset by a $2.0 million gain on settlement of outstanding receivables from Wireless which was previously deemed uncollectible. The other net income during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to a gain on foreign currency exchange of $2.9 million and a gain on sale of securities of $2.3 million, partially offset by a loss on our derivative instrument of $1.4 million, a loss of $0.8 million on debt modification and extinguishment and a loss of $0.4 million on disposal of assets.

Income tax expense was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to a benefit of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 resulted primarily from US state minimum taxes, offset by losses in our Canadian subsidiary. The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2019 resulted primarily from changes in our valuation allowance and losses in our Canadian subsidiary, offset by US state minimum taxes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash from operations could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and other risks detailed in the Risk Factors section of this report and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2020. Despite the challenging economic environment caused by the pandemic, based on our current business plan and revenue prospects, we continue to believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, our anticipated cash flows from operations and our available credit facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and operating resource expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of this filing.
Our primary source of liquidity has historically been cash from operations, proceeds from issuances of debt and equity securities, borrowings under our credit facilities and, to a lesser extent, capital contributions. As of June 30, 2020, we had $249.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $229.2 million of availability under our revolving credit facility (after giving effect to $15.6 million of letters of credit outstanding and $105.2 million of borrowings).
As market conditions warrant, we and our equity holders, including the Sponsor, its affiliates and members of our management, may from time to time, seek to purchase our outstanding debt securities or loans in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitations contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, any purchases made by us may be funded by the use of cash on our balance sheet or the incurrence of new
secured or unsecured debt, including additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Any such purchases may be with respect to a substantial amount of a particular class or series of debt, with the attendant reduction in the trading liquidity of such class or series. In addition, any such purchases made at prices below the “adjusted issue price” (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) may result in taxable cancellation of indebtedness income to us, which amounts may be material, and in related adverse tax consequences to us. Depending on conditions in the credit and capital markets and other factors, we will, from time to time, consider various financing transactions, the proceeds of which could be used to refinance our indebtedness or for other purposes.
Cash Flow and Liquidity Analysis
Our cash flows provided by operating activities include recurring monthly billings, cash received from the sale of Products to our subscribers that either pay-in-full at the time of installation or finance their purchase of Products under the Consumer Financing Program and other fees received from the subscribers we service. Cash used in operating activities includes the cash costs to monitor and service our subscribers, a portion of subscriber acquisition costs and general and administrative costs. Historically, we financed subscriber acquisition costs through our operating cash flows, the issuance of debt, and to a lesser extent, through the issuance of equity and sale of contracts to third parties. Currently, the upfront proceeds from the Consumer Finance Program, and those that are paid-in-full at the time of the sale of Products, offset a portion of the upfront investment associated with subscriber acquisition costs.
Sales from our direct-to-home channel are seasonal in nature. We make investments in the recruitment of our direct-to-home sales representatives, inventory and other support costs for the April through August sales period prior to each sales season. We experience increases in capitalized contract costs, as well as costs to support the sales force throughout North America, prior to and during this time period. The incremental inventory purchased to support the direct-to-home sales season is generally consumed prior to the end of the calendar year in which it is purchased.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We generally reinvest the cash flows from our recurring monthly billings and cash received from the sale of Products associated with the initial installation into our business, primarily to (1) maintain and grow our subscriber base, (2) expand our infrastructure to support this growth, (3) enhance our existing Smart Home Services offerings, (4) develop new Smart Home Services offerings and (5) expand into new sales channels. These investments are focused on generating new subscribers, increasing the revenue from our existing subscriber base, enhancing the overall quality of service provided to our subscribers, and increasing the productivity and efficiency of our workforce and back-office functions necessary to scale our business.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $77.5 million. This cash provided was primarily from a net loss of $225.2 million, adjusted for:
•$345.3 million in non-cash amortization, depreciation, and stock-based compensation;
•a $12.7 million loss on early extinguishment of debt;
•$11.1 million in non-cash restructuring expenses; and
•provisions for doubtful accounts and credit losses of $13.1 million.
Cash provided by operating activities resulting from changes in operating assets and liabilities, including:
•a $128.2 million increase in deferred revenue due primarily to the growth in deferred revenues associated with the sale of Products under the Vivint Flex Pay plan and the increased subscriber base,
•a $68.7 million increase in accrued payroll and commissions, accrued expenses, other current and long-term liabilities;
•a $15.6 million decrease in long-term notes receivables and other assets, net primarily due to decreases in RIC receivables,
•a $7.3 million increase in accounts payable due primarily to increased inventory purchases, and
•a $3.8 million decrease in right of use assets.
These sources of operating cash were partially offset by the following changes in operating assets and liabilities:
•a $259.3 million increase in capitalized contract costs,
•a $18.1 million increase in inventories to support our direct-to-home summer selling season,
•a $16.9 million increase in accounts receivable driven primarily by the increase in amounts due under the Consumer Financing Program;
•a $4.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and
•a $4.2 million decrease in right of use liabilities.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $131.0 million. This cash used was primarily from a net loss of $205.1 million, adjusted for:
•$269.9 million in non-cash amortization, depreciation, and stock-based compensation
•a provision for doubtful accounts of $11.6 million, and
•a $2.3 million gain on equity securities.
Cash used in operating activities resulting from changes in operating assets and liabilities, including:
•a $264.6 million increase in capitalized contract costs,
•a $88.7 million increase in inventories to support our direct-to-home summer selling season,
•a $29.8 million increase in accounts receivable driven primarily by the increase in RIC billings under Vivint Flex Pay and the growth in the number of our Total Subscribers,
•a $5.4 million increase in long-term notes receivables and other assets, net,
•a $5.5 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, and
•a $3.9 million decrease in the right-of-use liabilities associated with operating leases.
These uses of operating cash were partially offset by the following changes in operating assets and liabilities:
•a $91.7 million increase in deferred revenue due primarily to the growth in deferred revenues associated with the sale of Products under the Vivint Flex Pay plan and the increased subscriber base,
•a $66.5 million increase in accounts payable due primarily to increased inventory purchases,
•a $30.2 million increase in accrued payroll and commissions, accrued expenses, other current and long-term liabilities, and current and long-term operating lease liabilities due primarily to an increase in the derivative liability associated with the Consumer Financing Program of $18.7 million, an increase in accrued payroll and commissions of $14.0 million, and
•a $3.5 million decrease in right-of-use assets primarily due to amortization of these assets.
Net cash interest paid for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 related to our indebtedness (excluding finance or capital leases) totaled $114.2 million and $130.3 million, respectively. Our net cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, before these interest payments, were cash inflows of $191.7 million and cash outflows of $0.7 million, respectively. Accordingly, our net cash provided by operating activities were sufficient to cover interest payments for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and insufficient for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Historically, our investing activities have primarily consisted of capital expenditures, business combinations and technology acquisitions. Capital expenditures primarily consist of periodic additions to property, plant and equipment to support the growth in our business.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $5.7 million primarily associated with capital expenditures of $5.9 million, offset by proceeds from the sale of assets of $1.4 million.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by investing activities was $0.1 million primarily associated with the sale of equity securities of $5.4 million, offset by capital expenditures of $4.7 million and acquisition of intangible assets of $0.7 million.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Historically, our cash flows provided by financing activities primarily related to the issuance of equity securities and the issuance of debt by our subsidiaries, primarily to fund the portion of upfront costs associated with generating new subscribers that are not covered through our operating cash flows or through our Vivint Flex Pay program. Uses of cash for financing activities are generally associated with the return of capital to our stockholders, the repayment of debt and the payment of financing costs associated with the issuance of debt.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $172.6 million, consisting of proceeds from the issuance of $1,550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes and Term Loans, $465.0 million capital contribution associated with the Merger, $359.2 million in borrowings on our revolving credit facility and $74.6 million from the exercise of warrants. These cash proceeds were offset by $1,749.5 million of repayments on existing notes, $499.0 million of repayments on our revolving credit facility, $12.3 million in financing costs and $4.4 million of repayments under our finance lease obligations,.
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was $121.2 million, consisting primarily of $160.0 million in borrowings on our revolving credit facility and proceeds from the issuance of $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2024 notes. These cash proceeds were offset by $229.1 million of repayments on existing notes and $4.3 million of repayments under our finance lease obligations.
Long-Term Debt
We are a highly leveraged company with significant debt service requirements. As of June 30, 2020, we had $2.95 billion of total debt outstanding, consisting of $677.0 million of outstanding 7.875% senior secured notes due 2022 (the “2022 notes”), $400.0 million of outstanding 7.625% senior notes due 2023 (the “2023 notes”), $225.0 million of outstanding 8.50% senior secured notes due 2024 (the “2024 notes”), $600.0 million of outstanding 6.75% senior secured notes due 2027 (the “2027 notes,” and together with the 2022 notes, 2023 notes and 2024 notes, the “Notes”), $947.6 million of borrowings outstanding under the 2025 Term Loan B (as defined below) and $105.2 million of borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility (with $229.2 million of additional availability under the revolving credit facility after giving effect to $15.6 million of letters of credit outstanding).
2022 Notes

We may, at our option, redeem at any time and from time to time some or all of the 2022 notes at the redemption prices specified in the indenture governing the 2022 notes, in each case, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.
The 2022 notes mature on December 1, 2022, or on such earlier date when any outstanding pari passu lien indebtedness matures as a result of the operation of any springing maturity provisions set forth in the agreements governing such pari passu lien indebtedness.

In addition, on or prior to May 1, 2021, we may, at our option, redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2024 notes with the proceeds from certain equity offerings at 108.50%, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

The 2024 notes mature on November 1, 2024, unless, under “Springing Maturity” provisions, on June 1, 2023 (the 91st day prior to the maturity of the 2023 notes) more than an aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million of such 2023 notes remain outstanding or have not been refinanced as permitted under the note purchase agreement for the 2023 notes, in which case the 2024 Notes will mature on June 1, 2023.
2027 Notes
As of June 30, 2020, APX had $600.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of its 2027 notes. Interest on the 2027 notes is payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 each year.
We may, at our option, redeem at any time and from time to time prior to February 15, 2023, some or all of the 2027 notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date plus the applicable “make-whole premium.” From and after February 15, 2023, we may, at our option, redeem at any time and from time to time some or all of the 2027 notes at 103.375%, declining to par from and after May 1, 2025, in each case, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption.

The 2027 notes will mature on February 15, 2027, unless, under “Springing Maturity” provisions on June 1, 2023 (the 91st day prior to the maturity of the 2023 notes) more than an aggregate principal amount of $125.0 million of such 2023 notes remain outstanding or have not been refinanced as permitted under the note purchase agreement for the 2023 notes, in which case the 2027 Notes will mature on June 1, 2023. The 2027 notes are secured, on a pari passu basis, by the collateral securing obligations under the existing senior secured notes, the revolving credit facility and the Term Loan, in each case, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens.
2025 Term Loan B
On February 14, 2020 APX Group incurred $950 million of term loans (the “2025 Term Loan B”), the proceeds of which were used, in part, to refinance the 2024 Term Loan B.
Pursuant to the terms of the 2025 Term Loan B, quarterly amortization payments are due in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Term Loan B outstanding on the closing date. The remaining principal amount outstanding under the 2025 Term Loan B will be due and payable in full on (x) if the Term Springing Maturity Condition (as defined below) does not apply, December 31, 2025 and (y) if the Term Springing Maturity Condition does apply, the 2023 Springing Maturity Date (which date is the date that is 91 days before the maturity date with respect to the 2023 Notes).
The “Term Springing Maturity Condition” applies if on the 2023 Springing Maturity Date (which date is the date that is 91 days before the maturity date with respect to the 2023 Notes), an aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes in excess of $125.0 million are either outstanding or have not been repaid or redeemed.
Revolving Credit Facility
On February 14, 2020, we amended and restated the credit agreement governing the senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) to provide for, among other things, (1) an increase in the aggregate commitments previously available to us to $350.0 million and (2) the extension of the maturity date with respect to certain of the previously available commitments.
As of June 30, 2020 we had $229.2 million of availability under our revolving credit facility (after giving effect to $15.6 million of letters of credit outstanding and $105.2 million of borrowings). Borrowings under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at our option, either (1) the base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A. and (c) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for an interest period of one month, plus 1.00% or (2) the LIBOR rate determined by reference to the London interbank offered rate for dollars for the interest period relevant to such borrowing. The applicable margin for base rate-based borrowings (1)(a) under the Series A Revolving Commitments of approximately $10.9 million and the Series C Revolving Commitments of approximately $330.8 million is currently 2.0% and (b) under the Series B Revolving Commitments of approximately $8.3 million is currently 3.0% and (2) the applicable margin for LIBOR rate-based borrowings (a) under the Series A Revolving Commitments and the Series C Revolving Commitments is currently 3.0% per annum and (b) under the Series B Revolving Commitments is currently 4.0%. The applicable margin for borrowings under the revolving credit facility is subject to one step-down of 25 basis points based on our meeting a consolidated first lien net leverage ratio test.
In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the revolving credit facility, APX is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee (which is subject to one interest rate step-down of 12.5 basis points, based on APX meeting a consolidated first lien net leverage ratio test) to the lenders under the revolving credit facility in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder. APX also pays a customary letter of credit and agency fees.
APX is not required to make any scheduled amortization payments under the revolving credit facility. The principal amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility will be due and payable in full on March 31, 2021 with respect to the commitments under the Series A Revolving Credit Facility and Series B Revolving Credit Facility and on February 14, 2025 (or the applicable springing maturity date if the Revolving Springing Maturity Condition applies) with respect to the $330.8 million of Series C Revolving Credit Commitments. The “Revolver Springing Maturity Condition” applies if (i) on the 2022 Springing Maturity Date, an aggregate principal amount of the Borrower’s 7.875% Senior Secured Notes Due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) in excess of $350.0 million are either outstanding or have not been repaid or redeemed with certain qualifying proceeds specified in the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, (ii) on the 2023 Springing Maturity Date, an aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes in excess of $125.0 million are either outstanding or have not been repaid or redeemed with certain qualifying proceeds specified in the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or (iii) on the 2024 Springing Maturity Date, an aggregate principal amount of the Borrower’s 8.500% Senior Secured Notes Due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) in excess of $125.0 million are either outstanding or have not been repaid or redeemed with certain qualifying proceeds specified in the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The “2022 Springing Maturity Date” means the date that is 91 days before the maturity date with respect to the 2022 Notes, the “2023 Springing Maturity Date” means the date that is 91 days before the maturity date with respect to the 2023 Notes and the “2024 Springing Maturity Date” means the date that is 91 days before the maturity date with respect to the 2024 Notes.
Guarantees and Security (Revolving Credit Facility, 2025 Term Loan B and Notes)
All of the obligations under the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes are guaranteed by APX Group Holdings, Inc. and each of APX Group, Inc.'s existing and future material wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiaries (subject to customary exclusions and qualifications). However, such subsidiaries shall only be required to guarantee the obligations under the debt agreements governing the Notes for so long as such entities guarantee the obligations under the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B or our other indebtedness. All of the obligations under the Notes are also guaranteed by Vivint Smart Home, Inc.
The obligations under the revolving credit facility, 2025 Term Loan B, 2022 notes, the 2024 notes and the 2027 notes (collectively with the 2022 notes and 2024 notes, the “existing senior secured notes”) are secured by a security interest in (1) substantially all of the present and future tangible and intangible assets of APX Group, Inc., and the guarantors, including without limitation equipment, subscriber contracts and communication paths, intellectual property, material fee-owned real property, general intangibles, investment property, material intercompany notes and proceeds of the foregoing, subject to permitted liens and other customary exceptions, (2) substantially all personal property of APX Group, Inc. and the guarantors consisting of accounts receivable arising from the sale of inventory and other goods and services (including related contracts and contract rights, inventory, cash, deposit accounts, other bank accounts and securities accounts), inventory and intangible
assets to the extent attached to the foregoing books and records of APX Group, Inc. and the guarantors, and the proceeds thereof, subject to permitted liens and other customary exceptions, in each case held by APX Group, Inc. and the guarantors and (3) a pledge of all of the capital stock of APX Group, Inc., each of its subsidiary guarantors and each restricted subsidiary of APX Group, Inc. and its subsidiary guarantors, in each case other than excluded assets and subject to the limitations and exclusions provided in the applicable collateral documents.
Under the terms of the applicable security documents and intercreditor agreement, the proceeds of any collection or other realization of collateral received in connection with the exercise of remedies will be applied first to repay up to $350.0 million of amounts due under the revolving credit facility, before the holders of the existing senior secured notes or 2025 Term Loan B receive any such proceeds.
Guarantor Summarized Financial Information
In May 2020, the Company provided a parent guarantee of APX Group’s obligations under the indentures governing the Notes, in each case, in order to enable APX Group to satisfy its reporting obligations under the indentures governing the Notes by furnishing financial information relating to the Company.
We are providing the following information with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, 2025 Term Loan B and the Notes. The financial information of Vivint Smart Home, Inc., APX Group Holdings, Inc., APX Group, Inc. and each guarantor subsidiary (collectively the “Guarantors”) is presented on a combined basis with intercompany balances and transactions between the Guarantors eliminated. The Guarantors' amounts due from, amounts due to, and transactions with non-guarantor subsidiaries are separately disclosed.

Debt Covenants
The credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes contain a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, APX Group, Inc. and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to:
•incur or guarantee additional debt or issue disqualified stock or preferred stock;
•pay dividends and make other distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock;
•make certain investments;
•incur certain liens;
•enter into transactions with affiliates;
•merge or consolidate;
•materially change the nature of their business;
•enter into agreements that restrict the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make dividends or other payments to APX Group, Inc.;
•designate restricted subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries;
•amend, prepay, redeem or purchase certain subordinated debt; and
•transfer or sell certain assets.
The credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes contain change of control provisions and certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2020, APX Group, Inc. was in compliance with all covenants related to its long-term obligations.
Subject to certain exceptions, the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes permit APX Group, Inc. and its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness.
Our future liquidity requirements will be significant, primarily due to debt service requirements. The actual amounts of borrowings under the revolving credit facility will fluctuate from time to time.
Our liquidity and our ability to fund our capital requirements is dependent on our future financial performance, which is subject to general economic, financial and other factors that are beyond our control and many of which are described under “Part II. Item 1A—Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2020 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. If those factors significantly change or other unexpected factors adversely affect us, our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations or we may not be able to obtain future financings to meet our liquidity needs. We anticipate that to the extent additional liquidity is necessary to fund our operations, it would be funded through borrowings under the revolving credit facility, incurring other indebtedness, additional equity or other financings or a combination of these potential sources of liquidity. We may not be able to obtain this additional liquidity on terms acceptable to us or at all.
Covenant Compliance
Under the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes, our subsidiary, APX Group's ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments, refinancing certain indebtedness, paying dividends and entering into certain merger transactions is governed, in part, by our ability to satisfy tests based on Covenant Adjusted EBITDA (which measure is defined as “Consolidated EBITDA” in the credit agreements governing the revolving credit facility and 2025 Term Loan B and “EBITDA” in the debt agreements governing the existing notes) for the applicable four-quarter period. Such tests include an incurrence-based maximum consolidated secured debt ratio and consolidated total debt ratio of 4.00 to 1.0 (or, in the case of each of the credit agreements governing the revolving credit facility and the 2025 Term Loan B, 4.25 to 1.00), an incurrence-based minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.0, and, solely in the case of the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, a maintenance-based maximum consolidated first lien secured debt ratio of 5.95 to 1.0, each as
determined in accordance with the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes, as applicable. Non-compliance with these covenants could restrict our ability to undertake certain activities or result in a default under the credit agreement governing the revolving credit facility, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the debt agreements governing the Notes. As of June 30, 2020, our consolidated first lien secured debt ratio was 3.18 to 1.0, our consolidated total debt ratio was 4.07 to 1.0 and our fixed charge coverage ratio was 3.31 to 1.0, in each case based on Covenant Adjusted EBITDA for the four quarters ended June 30, 2020 and as calculated in accordance with the applicable debt agreements.
“Covenant Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense (net of interest income), income and franchise taxes and depreciation and amortization (including amortization of capitalized subscriber acquisition costs), further adjusted to exclude the effects of certain contract sales to third parties, non-capitalized subscriber acquisition costs, stock based compensation and certain unusual, non-cash, non-recurring and other items permitted in certain covenant calculations under the agreements governing our Notes, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the credit agreement governing our revolving credit facility.
We believe that the presentation of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about the calculation of, and compliance with, certain financial covenants contained in the agreements governing the Notes, the credit agreements governing the revolving credit facility and the 2025 Term Loan B. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definition of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because not all issuers and analysts calculate Covenant Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.
Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net loss to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

Other Factors Affecting Liquidity and Capital Resources
Vivint Flex Pay. Vivint Flex Pay became our primary sales model beginning in March 2017. Under the Consumer Financing Program, qualified customers are eligible for loans provided by third-party financing providers up to $4,000. The annual percentage rates on these loans range between 0% and 9.99%, and are either installment loans or revolving loans with a 42 or 60 month term. Most loan terms are determined by the customer’s credit quality.
For certain third-party provider loans, we pay a monthly fee based on either the average daily outstanding balance of the loans or the number of outstanding loans, depending on the third-party financing provider. Additionally, we share in the liability for credit losses depending on the credit quality of the customer, with our Company being responsible for between 5% to 100% of lost principal balances, depending on factors specified in the agreement with such provider. Because of the nature of these provisions, we record a derivative liability at its fair value when the third-party financing provider originates loans to customers, which reduces the amount of estimated revenue recognized on the provision of the services. The derivative liability represents the estimated remaining amounts to be paid to the third-party provider by us related to outstanding loans, including the monthly fees based on either the outstanding loan balances or the number of outstanding loans, shared liabilities for credit losses and customer payment processing fees. The derivative liability is reduced as payments are made by us to the third-party financing provider. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the derivative liability are realized through other expenses (income), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of this derivative liability was $180.0 million and $136.9 million, respectively. As we continue to use of Vivint Flex Pay as our
primary sales model, we expect our liability to third-party providers to continue to increase substantially and the rate of such increases may accelerate.
For other third-party provider loans, we receive net proceeds (net of fees and expected losses) for which we have no further obligation to the third-party. We record these net proceeds to deferred revenue.
Vehicle Leases. Since 2010, we have leased, and expect to continue leasing, vehicles primarily for use by our Smart Home Pros. For the most part, these leases have 36 month durations and we account for them as finance leases. At the end of the lease term for each vehicle we have the option to either (i) purchase it for the estimated end-of-lease fair market value established at the beginning of the lease term; or (ii) return the vehicle to the lessor to be sold by them and in the event the sale price is less than the estimated end-of-lease fair market value we are responsible for such deficiency. As of June 30, 2020, our total finance lease obligations were $9.2 million, of which $5.2 million is due within the next 12 months.
Aircraft Lease. In December 2012, we entered into an aircraft lease agreement for the use of a corporate aircraft, which is accounted for as an operating lease. Upon execution of the lease, we paid a $5.9 million security deposit which is refundable at the end of the lease term. Beginning January 2013, we are required to make 156 monthly rental payments of approximately $83,000 each. In January 2015, an amendment to the agreement was made which, among other changes, increased the required monthly rental payments to approximately $87,000 each. We also have the option to extend the lease for an additional 36 months upon expiration of the initial term. The lease agreement also provides us the option to purchase the aircraft on certain specified dates for a stated dollar amount, which represents the current estimated fair value as of the purchase date.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Currently we do not engage in off-balance sheet financing arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
