Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE A – General

Business Description

We are a leading provider of cloud-based supply chain management solutions, providing network-proven integrations and comprehensive retail performance analytics to thousands of customers worldwide. We provide our solutions through the SPS Commerce platform, a cloud-based product suite that improves the way suppliers, retailers, distributors and other customers manage and fulfill orders. We derive the majority of our revenues from thousands of monthly recurring subscriptions from businesses that utilize our solutions.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SPS Commerce, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP. We have included all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to give a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods shown. Operating results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The December 31, 2015 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2015 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2016.

Use of Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant Accounting Policies

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were no material changes in our significant accounting policies. See Note A to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2016, for additional information regarding our significant accounting policies.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers accounting requirements for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. This guidance will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. These new requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our results of operations and financial position.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which amends the guidance requiring companies to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and non-current amounts in a classified statement of financial position. This accounting guidance simplifies the

Table of Contents

presentation of deferred income taxes, such that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as non-current in a classified statement of financial position. This accounting guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2017, but we elected to early adopt this guidance prospectively as of December 31, 2015. As a result, we have classified all deferred tax liabilities and assets as non-current in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2016.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases which will supersede the existing lease guidance and will require all leases with a term greater than 12 months to be recognized in the statements of financial position and eliminate current real estate-specific lease guidance, while maintaining substantially similar classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which will simplify the income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures and classification on the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE B – Business Acquisitions

Toolbox Solutions, Inc.

On January 5, 2016, we completed our acquisition of all of the outstanding common shares of Toolbox Solutions, Inc., a privately held company providing point-of-sale analytics and category management services to retailers and consumer packaged goods suppliers in North America. This acquisition expands our retail network and strengthens our analytics offerings. Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, we paid $17.9 million in cash and issued $3.3 million in stock, or 48,668 shares of common stock, to the shareholders of Toolbox Solutions. Furthermore, up to an additional 16,222 shares of common stock will be payable contingent upon the completion of certain revenue milestones. See Note C for subsequent measurements of this contingent liability.

Purchase Price Allocation

We accounted for the acquisition as a business combination. We allocated the purchase price to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. We engaged a third-party valuation firm to assist us in the determination of the value of the purchased intangible assets. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is attributed to a trained workforce and other buyer-specific value resulting from expected synergies, including long-term cost savings, which are not included in the fair values of assets.

The purchase price consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

Cash

   $ 17,942   

SPS Commerce, Inc. common stock

     3,251   

Fair value of share-based earn-out liability

     1,043   
  

 

 

 
   $ 22,236   
  

 

 

 

The final purchase price is subject to a net working capital adjustment to be determined by SPS Commerce and the sellers, pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement. The number of shares of our common stock issued for the acquisition was 48,668 shares as calculated according to the terms of the purchase agreement. The fair value of the shares issued was determined using the closing price of our common stock on the acquisition date.

The fair values of purchased intangible assets are preliminary and are subject to adjustment as additional information becomes available about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The purchased intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Amortization expense for the period from January 5, 2016 through March 31, 2016 was $337,000.

Acquisition-Related Costs and Post-Acquisition Operating Results

Acquisition-related costs were $107,000 and are included in our condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The operating results of Toolbox Solutions, Inc. have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements from January 5, 2016, the closing date of the acquisition. For the period from January 5, 2016 through March 31, 2016, approximately $1.6 million of our revenues were derived from Toolbox Solutions’ customers. The amount of operating income or loss from Toolbox Solutions was not separately identifiable due to our integration.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The pro forma financial information in the table below presents the combined operating results of SPS Commerce and Toolbox Solutions as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015. The pro forma information includes the historical operating results of each company and pro forma adjustments for the approximate $1.5 million of annual amortization expense related to purchased intangible assets and the additional impact on the provision or benefit for income taxes, resulting from the combined income and intangible amortization expense, using our statutory blended income tax rate of 26.5%.

NOTE C – Financial Instruments

We invest primarily in money market funds, highly liquid debt instruments of the U.S. government, and U.S. corporate debt securities. All highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less are classified as cash equivalents. All investments with original maturities greater than 90 days and remaining maturities less than one year from the balance sheet date are classified as short-term marketable securities. Investments with remaining maturities of more than one year from the balance sheet date are classified as marketable securities, non-current. Short-term marketable securities and marketable securities, non-current, are also classified as available-for-sale. We intend to hold marketable securities until maturity; however, we may sell these securities at any time for use in current operations or for other purposes. Consequently, we may or may not keep securities with stated holding periods to maturity.

Our fixed income investments are carried at fair value and unrealized gains and losses on these investments are included in other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains or losses are included in other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). When a determination has been made that an other-than-temporary decline in fair value has occurred, the amount of the decline that is related to a credit loss is realized and is included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

We do not believe any of the unrealized losses represent an other-than-temporary impairment based on our valuation of available evidence as of March 31, 2016. We expect to receive the full principal and interest on all of these cash equivalents and marketable securities.

Fair Value Measurements

We measure certain financial assets at fair value on a recurring basis based on a fair value hierarchy that requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are:

 

    Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

    Level 2 – observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as (a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, (b) quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or (c) model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

    Level 3 – unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

Level 1 Measurements

Our cash equivalents held in money market funds are measured at fair value using level 1 inputs.

Level 2 Measurements

Our available-for-sale U.S. treasury securities, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper and corporate debt securities are measured at fair value using level 2 inputs. We obtain the fair values of our level 2 available-for-sale securities from a professional pricing service.

Level 3 Measurements

Our valuation technique used to measure the fair value of our share-based earn-out liability was based on the present value of probability-weighted future cash flows related to the contingent earn-out criteria and the fair value of our common stock on each reporting date. While the fair value of our common stock is an observable input, the probability-weighted future cash flows related to the outcome of the earn-out represent a significant unobservable input to the valuation methodology. Accordingly, we have classified the earn-out liability as a Level 3 measurement.

We classify our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities within Level 1 or Level 2 because we use quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs to determine their fair value.

As described above, we classify our share-based earn-out liability in connection with our acquisition of Toolbox Solutions within Level 3 as factors used to develop the estimated fair value are unobservable. Our fair value estimate of this liability was $1.0 million at the date of acquisition and subsequent changes in the fair value of the share-based earn-out liability, whether due to changes in our probability assessment or the fair value of our common stock, are recognized in earnings in the period when the change in the estimated fair value occurs. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we recognized a $365,000 change in the fair value of our share-based earn-out liability in other income (expense), net in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income primarily due to the change in the fair value of our common stock.

NOTE D – Goodwill and Intangible Assets, net

The change in our goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was due to the acquisition of Toolbox Solutions (see Note B) of $15.4 million as well as the effect of foreign currency translation.

NOTE F – Stock-Based Compensation

Our equity compensation plans provide for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, as well as other stock-based awards including restricted stock and restricted stock units, to employees, non-employee directors and other consultants who provide services to us. Restricted stock awards result in the issuance of new shares when granted. For other stock-based awards, new shares are issued when the award is exercised, vested or released according to the terms of the agreement. In February 2016, 1,003,439 additional shares were reserved for future issuance under our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. At March 31, 2016, there were approximately 3.9 million shares available for grant under approved equity compensation plans.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Our employee stock purchase plan allows participating employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. The plan is available to all employees subject to certain eligibility requirements. Participating employees may purchase common stock, on a voluntary after tax basis, at a price that is the lower of 85% of the fair market value of one share of common stock at the beginning or end of each stock purchase period. The plan consists of two six-month offering periods, beginning on January 1 and July 1 of each calendar year, respectively. A total of 1.1 million shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the plan.

For the offering period that began on January 1, 2016, we withheld approximately $426,000 from employees participating in the plan as of March 31, 2016.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded approximately $107,000 of stock-based compensation expense associated with the employee stock purchase plan. The fair value was estimated based on the market price of our common stock at the beginning of the offering period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

Volatility

     24.8

Dividend yield

     0

Life (in years)

NOTE G – Income Taxes

We record our interim provision for income taxes by applying our estimated annual effective tax rate to our year-to-date pretax income and adjust the provision for discrete tax items recorded in the period. Differences between our effective tax rate and statutory tax rates are primarily due to the impact of permanently non-deductible expenses partially offset by the federal research and development credit. Our provisions for income taxes included current foreign and state income tax expense, as well as deferred tax expense.

As of March 31, 2016 we do not have any unrecognized tax benefits nor any accrued interest or tax penalties.

NOTE H – Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share has been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share also includes the impact of our outstanding potential common shares, including options and restricted stock units. Potential common shares that are anti-dilutive are excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share.

The following table presents the components of the computation of basic and diluted net income per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share amounts):

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

Overview

We are a leading provider of cloud-based supply chain management solutions, providing network-proven integrations and comprehensive retail performance analytics to thousands of customers worldwide. We provide our solutions through the SPS Commerce platform, a cloud-based product suite that improves the way suppliers, retailers, distributors and other customers manage and fulfill orders. We derive the majority of our revenues from thousands of monthly recurring subscriptions from businesses that utilize our solutions.

We plan to continue to grow our business by further penetrating the supply chain management market, increasing revenues from our customers as their businesses grow, expanding our distribution channels, expanding our international presence and, from time to time, developing new solutions and applications. We also intend to selectively pursue acquisitions that will add customers, allow us to expand into new regions or allow us to offer new functionalities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, our revenues were $45.6 million, an increase of 23% from the comparable period in 2015, and represented our 61st consecutive quarter of increased revenues. Total operating expenses increased 20% for the same period in 2016 from 2015.

On January 5, 2016, we entered into an stock purchase agreement with Toolbox Solutions, Inc., a privately-held information services company specializing in the collection, analysis and distribution of point-of-sale data used by retailers and suppliers to improve their supply chain efficiencies. Under the stock purchase agreement, we purchased and acquired substantially all of the assets of Toolbox Solutions for $17.9 million in cash, 48,668 shares of our common stock, and a share-based earn-out liability at an original fair value of $1.0 million. We also assumed certain liabilities of Toolbox Solutions. This acquisition allows us to expand our point-of-sale analytic offerings, expand our base of recurring revenue customers and add suppliers to our network. See Note B to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the acquisition of Toolbox Solutions.

Key Financial Terms and Metrics

We have several key financial terms and metrics, including annualized average recurring revenues per recurring revenue customer, which we also refer to as wallet share. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were no changes in the definitions of our key financial terms and metrics, which are discussed in more detail under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2016.

To supplement our financial statements, we also provide investors with Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP income per share, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Our management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and planning purposes. Adjusted EBITDA is also used for purposes of determining executive and senior management incentive compensation. These measures are also presented to our board of directors.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements and are subject to inherent limitations. Investors should review the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures that are included in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

A critical accounting policy is one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires us to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments for uncertain matters that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Accordingly, we believe that our policies for revenue recognition, the allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, stock-based compensation and the valuation of goodwill and purchased intangible assets are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there were no changes in our significant accounting policies or estimates. See Note A to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2016, for additional information regarding our accounting policies.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2015

Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $8.6 million, or 23%, to $45.6 million from $37.0 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in revenues resulted from two primary factors: the increase in recurring revenue customers and the increase in annualized average recurring revenues per recurring revenue customer, which we also refer to as wallet share.

 

    Annualized average recurring revenues per recurring revenue customer, or wallet share, increased 17% to $7,053 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $6,013 for the same period in 2015. This increase in wallet share was primarily attributable to increased fees resulting from increased usage of our solutions by our recurring revenue customers and growth in larger customers.

 

    The number of recurring revenue customers increased 6% to 23,817 at March 31, 2016 from 22,436 at March 31, 2015.

Recurring revenues from recurring revenue customers accounted for 91% of our total revenues, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 90% for the same period in 2015. We anticipate that the number of recurring revenue customers and wallet share will continue to increase as we increase the number of solutions we offer and increase the penetration of those solutions across our customer base.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $3.3 million, or 29%, to $14.9 million from $11.6 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in cost of revenues for the three-month period in 2016 was primarily due to increased headcount, which resulted in higher personnel-related costs of approximately $2.3 million, occupancy costs of approximately $178,000 and stock based compensation expense of $108,000 compared to the same period in 2015. We also incurred higher software and cloud-based

subscription costs of $398,000 and depreciation expense of $229,000 as compared to the same period in 2015 for continued investment in the infrastructure supporting our solutions. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues were 33% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 31% for the same period in 2015. Going forward, we anticipate that cost of revenues will increase in absolute dollars as we continue to expand our business.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $2.1 million, or 16%, to $15.9 million from $13.7 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period in 2016 was due to increased headcount, which resulted in higher personnel-related costs of approximately $1.7 million, as well as increased variable compensation of approximately $476,000 earned by sales personnel and referral partners from new business compared to the same period in 2015. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expenses were 35% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 37% for the same period in 2015. As we expand our business, we will continue to add resources to our sales and marketing efforts over time, and we expect that these expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $1.0 million, or 25%, to $5.1 million from $4.1 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in research and development expenses for the three-month period in 2016 was primarily due to increased headcount, which resulted in higher personnel costs of approximately $898,000 compared to the same period in 2015. As a percentage of revenues, research and development expenses were 11% for each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to 11% for the same period in 2015. As we enhance and expand our solutions and applications, we expect that research and development expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $1.5 million, or 25%, to $7.3 million from $5.8 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three-month period in 2016 was due to increased headcount, which resulted in higher personnel-related costs of approximately $480,000 and stock based compensation expenses of approximately $206,000 compared to the same period in 2015. We also incurred higher legal and audit fees of approximately $143,000 due in part to the acquisition of Toolbox Solutions, bad debt expense of $166,000 and software subscription costs of approximately $107,000 compared to the same period in 2015. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 16% for each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Going forward, we expect that general and administrative expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars as we expand our business.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased $316,000, or 37%, to $1.2 million from $845,000 for the same period in 2015 primarily due to the amortization of Toolbox Solutions’ intangible assets.

Other Income. Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 included $365,000 for an adjustment for the fair value of the Toolbox Solutions share-based earn-out liability due to the change in the stock price from date of acquisition through March 31, 2016.

Income Tax Expense. We recorded income tax expense of $708,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. We recorded income tax expense of $261,000 for three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase in income tax expense for the three-month period in 2016 was primarily due to increased pretax book income. For the full year 2016, we expect that our annual effective income tax rate will be approximately 40%.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure of financial performance, consists of net income plus depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, stock-based compensation expense and other adjustments as necessary for a fair presentation. Other adjustments included the impact of the fair value adjustment for the Toolbox Solutions share-based earn-out liability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2016, our principal sources of liquidity were cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $133.4 million and accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, of $20.4 million. Marketable securities are invested in accordance with our investment policy, with a goal of maintaining liquidity and capital preservation. Our cash equivalents and marketable securities are held in highly liquid money market funds, commercial paper, federal agency securities, and corporate debt securities.

Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.9 million and $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in operating cash flows as compared to the same period in 2015 was primarily due to deferred revenue and the timing of payments for accounts payable, which is offset by accrued compensation and accrued expenses.

Net Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $20.1 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in net cash used in investing activities as compared to the same period in 2015 was primarily due to the acquisition of Toolbox Solutions for $17.9 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we had capital expenditures of $2.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Our capital expenditures are for supporting our business growth and existing customer base, as well as for our internal use such as equipment for our employees.

Net Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.1 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to the exercise of stock options offset by the excess tax benefit from the exercise of stock options.

Effect of Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Changes

Our results of operations and cash flows were not materially affected by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We maintain approximately 10% of our total cash and cash equivalents outside of the United States in foreign currencies, primarily in Australian and Canadian dollars. We believe that a significant change in foreign currency exchange rates or an inability to access these funds would not affect our ability to meet our operational needs.

Adequacy of Capital Resources

Our future capital requirements may vary significantly from those now planned and will depend on many factors, including:

 

    costs to develop and implement new solutions and applications, if any;

 

    sales and marketing resources needed to further penetrate our market and gain acceptance of new solutions and applications that we may develop;

 

    expansion of our operations in the United States and internationally;

 

    response of competitors to our solutions and applications; and,

 

    use of capital for acquisitions, if any.

Historically, we have experienced increases in our expenditures consistent with the growth in our operations and personnel, and we anticipate that our expenditures will continue to increase as we expand our business.

We believe our cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and our cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Inflation and changing prices did not have a material effect on our business during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, investments in special purpose entities or undisclosed borrowings or debt. Additionally, we are not a party to any derivative contracts or synthetic leases.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity Risk

The principal objectives of our investment activities are to preserve principal, provide liquidity and maximize income consistent with minimizing risk of material loss. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates. However, based on the nature and current level of our investments (primarily cash and cash equivalents, which approximate fair value due to their short maturities, and marketable securities), we believe there is no material risk exposure. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

We did not have any outstanding debt as of March 31, 2016. Therefore, we do not have any material risk to interest rate fluctuations.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We have revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Australian and Canadian dollars. As we expand internationally, our results of operations and cash flows will be impacted by foreign currency fluctuations. We have not used any forward contracts or currency borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk, although we may do so in the future.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2016.

In this first quarter of 2016, we acquired the net assets of Toolbox Solutions, Inc. Toolbox Solutions represented approximately 11% of our total consolidated assets and 3% of our consolidated revenues as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting does not include Toolbox Solutions. This exclusion is in accordance with the SEC’s general guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from our scope in the year of acquisition.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings. From time to time, we may be named as a defendant in legal actions or otherwise be subject to claims arising from our normal business activities. Any such actions, even those that lack merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We believe that we have obtained adequate insurance coverage or rights to indemnification in connection with potential legal proceedings that may arise.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2016.
