NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

A. Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc., a U.S.-based Delaware corporation, was formed on January 31, 2002. On March 14, 2013, we changed our corporate name from Lapis Technologies, Inc. to Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. (“we,” “Micronet Enertec” or “the Company”).

 

We operate through two Israel-based companies, Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd (“Enertec”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, and Micronet Ltd (“Micronet”), in which we held 62.9% as of June 30, 2016 and is controlled by us.

 

Micronet is a publicly traded company on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and operates in the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management (“MRM”) market. Micronet through both its Israeli and U.S. operational offices designs, develops, manufactures and sells rugged mobile computing devices that provide fleet operators and field workforces with computing solutions in challenging work environments. Micronet’s vehicle cabin installed and portable tablets increase workforce productivity and enhance corporate efficiency by offering computing power and communication capabilities that provide fleet operators with visibility into vehicle location, fuel usage, speed and mileage. Micronet’s customers consist primarily of application service providers and solution providers specializing in the MRM market.

 

Enertec operates in the Defense and Aerospace markets and designs, develops, manufactures and supplies various customized military computer-based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments. Enertec’s solutions and systems are designed according to major aerospace integrators’ requirements and are integrated by them into critical systems such as command and control, missile fire control, maintenance of military aircraft and missiles for use by the Israeli Air Force and Navy and by foreign defense entities.

 

B. Standby Equity Distribution Agreement

 

On June 30, 2016, we entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement (the “SEDA”) with YA II PV Ltd. (“YA II”), a Cayman Island exempt limited partnership and an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors Global, LLC, for the sale of up to $2.39 million of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, over a three-year commitment period.  Under the terms of the SEDA, the Company may from time to time, in its discretion, sell newly-issued shares of its common stock to YA II at a discount to market of 1.5%.  The Company expects to issue shares of common stock under the SEDA pursuant to its effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 196760). The Company is not obligated to utilize any of the funds available under the SEDA and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties.  The total amount of funds that ultimately can be raised under the SEDA over the three-year term will depend on the market price for the Company’s common stock and the number of shares actually sold. The SEDA does not impose any restrictions on the Company’s operating activities. During the term of the SEDA, YA II is prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to the Company’s common stock.

 

C. Note Purchase Agreement

 

On June 30, 2016, the Company and our wholly-owned subsidiary Enertec Electronics Ltd (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with YA II (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), whereby YA II will purchase $600 of notes from the Borrowers (the “Notes”). The Company received a total of $600 on July 1st, 2016. The outstanding principal balance of the Notes shall bear interest at 7% per annum. On a quarterly basis commencing on October 10, 2016, the Borrowers shall make payments of $150 of principal plus accrued interest.

 


All amounts payable are due on July 10, 2017. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Notes, all amounts payable may be due immediately.

 

In connection with the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to grant to YA II a five-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 66,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $4.30 per share. The Warrant is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2016 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Company’s accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, and updated, as necessary, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

All the amounts included in the notes are denominated in thousand US Dollars.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the results and position of the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its operating activities. In assessing control, legal and contractual rights are taken into account. The consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control is achieved until the date that control is ceased. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) “FASB” issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10) (“Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2016-01”), which updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for the Company beginning in its first quarter of 2019. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, which supersedes the lease accounting guidance in ASC 840, Leases. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model. The guidance is effective for reporting periods (interim and annual) beginning after December 15, 2018, for public companies, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION (CONT.)

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Cont.)

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, which revises the guidance in ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, and will change how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payments to employees, including the income tax impact, classification on the statement of cash flows and forfeitures. The guidance is effective for reporting periods (interim and annual) beginning after December 15, 2017, for public companies. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The accounting guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

 

Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments and quoted prices in markets that are not active, and inputs that are directly observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, such as

treasury securities with pricing interpolated from recent trades of similar securities, or priced with models using highly observable inputs, such as commodity options priced using observable forward prices and volatilities.

 

Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that have little or no observability as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as the complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial instruments.

 

Items carried at fair value as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, are summarized below:

 

   Fair value measurements using input type

  The organic and non-organic growth of our business; 
   
  Our financing needs; and
   
 

The sufficiency of our capital resources.

 

Our business and operations are subject to substantial risks, which increase the uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements contained or implied in this report.  Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements. Further information on potential factors that could affect our business is described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.  Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures we have made in that report.

Micronet is a publicly-traded company on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and operates in the growing commercial MRM market and is a global developer, manufacturer and provider of mobile computing platforms, designed for integration into fleet management and mobile workforce management solutions. In June 2014, Micronet expanded its MRM business and operations in the U.S. market through the acquisition of the Vehicle Business for $7.1 million, and as a result adding to its business U.S.-based facilities which include manufacturing and technical support infrastructure, sales and marketing capabilities as well as expanding its U.S. customer base and presence with local fleets and local MRM service providers. As a result of this acquisition, Micronet currently operates via its Israeli and U.S. facilities, the first located in Azur, Israel, near Tel Aviv, and the second located in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Our strategy is driven and focused on continued internal growth through diligent efforts in our traditional growing markets with new technologies and innovative systems and products as well as the development of new potential segments and markets. Concurrent with our efforts to grow organically and in line with our strategy, we will continue to seek acquisitions that will complement and expand our product offerings, support our goals and increase our competitiveness. In order to help achieve our internal growth, we have expanded our production capacity and facilities. The acquisition of Micronet, or the Acquisition, in September 2012 and the Transaction serve our strategy to grow our business, and we believe that Micronet and its research and development, proprietary know-how and manufacturing capabilities will assist us in expanding our capability to provide turnkey solutions of computer based complex systems and solutions for commercial defense and aerospace applications as well. We strongly believe that by utilizing Micronet as our commercial arm we will be able to access new market segments and new customers, thereby increase our overall customer base. Our current target markets, in which we concentrate the majority of our resources, include primarily the US market, the Israeli domestic market and the European market.

 

On February 18, 2016, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, or the Asset Purchase Agreement, with Novatel Wireless, Inc., or the Seller, pursuant to which we agreed to acquire certain assets and liabilities of the Seller used in the operation of its telematics hardware business, or the Telematics Business Acquisition. The Asset Purchase Agreement provided that the Telematics Business Acquisition would close on or before March 31, 2016, subject to certain extensions and termination provisions.  On April 11, 2016, the Seller notified us that it was terminating the Asset Purchase Agreement due to the failure to meet such closing deadline and certain conditions required to extend it, and demanded a termination fee equal to $250 thousand pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement. On May 3, 2016, the Seller filed a complaint in the Superior District Court of the State of Delaware naming us as the defendant. The complaint alleges, among other things, that we breached the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and seeks, among other things, the payment of the termination fee equal to $250 thousand plus interest as well as all costs and expenses associated with the commencement of the lawsuit. On June 27, 2016 we filed our answer to the complaint in which we rejected the claims made by Novatel Wireless. The suit is currently in its early stages of discovery and exchange of interrogatories. However, we have made a $250 thousand provision in our financial statements for any claims relating to such litigation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP, we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, or non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate our financial performance.

 

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in our business, as they exclude expenses and gains that are not reflective of our ongoing operating results. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies.

 

The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.

 

The non-GAAP adjustments, and the basis for excluding them from non-GAAP financial measures, are outlined below:

 

  Amortization of acquired intangible assets - We are required to amortize the intangible assets, included in our GAAP financial statements, related to the Transaction and the Acquisition. The amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and term of its related amortization are unique to these transactions. The amortization of acquired intangible assets are non-cash charges. We believe that such charges do not reflect our operational performance. Therefore, we exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets to provide investors with a consistent basis for comparing pre- and post-transaction operating results.

 

  Stock-based compensation - The share based awards granted to certain individuals. They are non-cash and affected by our historical stock prices which are irrelevant to forward-looking analyses and are not necessarily linked to our operational performance.

Financing Needs

 

Although we currently do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures, we expect our capital requirements to increase over the next several years as we continue to support the organic and non-organic growth of our business. Among other activities, we plan to develop, manufacture and market larger-scale solutions, support our growing manufacturing and finance needs, continue the development and testing of our suite of products and systems, increase management, marketing and administration infrastructure, and embark on developing in-house business capabilities and facilities. Our future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including but not limited to (1) the levels and costs of our research and development initiatives, (2) the cost of hiring, training and certifying additional highly skilled professionals (mainly engineers and technicians), and maintaining our management including sales and marketing personnel to promote our products, and (3) the cost and timing of the expansion of our development, manufacturing and marketing efforts.

 

The Company expects to pay off the current portion of certain bank loans in the amount $1,329 and the Meydan Loan in the amount of $562 using its cash flow from operations or possibly additional debt or equity financings.

 

On June 30, 2016, we entered into a SEDA, with YA II for the sale of up to $2,390 of shares of our common stock over a three-year commitment period.  Under the terms of the SEDA, we may from time to time, in our discretion, sell newly-issued shares of our common stock to YA II at a discount to market of 1.5%.  In that regard, we have filed a prospectus supplement to our Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-196760) and expect to issue shares of our common stock under the SEDA pursuant to such registration statement. We are not obligated to utilize any of the funds under the SEDA and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties.  The total amount of funds that ultimately can be raised under the SEDA over the three-year term will depend on the market price for our common stock and the number of shares actually sold. The SEDA does not impose any restrictions on our operating activities. During the term of the SEDA, YA II is prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to our common stock. As of the date hereof, we have not yet issued any shares pursuant to the SEDA.

As noted above, the Company has an effective Form S-3 registration statement, filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with the Securities and Exchange Commission using a “shelf” registration process. Under this shelf registration process, the Company may, from time to time, sell common stock, warrants or units in one or more offerings up to a total dollar amount of $30,000, of which $2,390 has been reserved for shares to be issued pursuant to the SEDA.

 

Based on our current business plan, we anticipate that our existing cash balances and cash generated from future sales will be sufficient to permit us to conduct our operations and to carry out our contemplated business plans for the next twelve months. However, we believe that we may need to raise additional funds if we want to materially decrease our dependence on our existing cash and other liquidity resources. Currently, the only external sources of liquidity are our banks, and we may seek additional financing from them or through securities offerings, to expand our operations, using new capital to develop new products, enhance existing products or respond to competitive pressures. However, we may also undertake additional debt or equity financings (including sales of common stock, warrants or units under our shelf registration statement) to better enable us to grow and meet our future operating and capital requirements. There is no assurance that we will be able to consummate such offerings on favorable terms or at all.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation with the participation of the Company’s management, including Mr. David Lucatz, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and Mrs. Moran Amran, the Company’s controller (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2016. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

 

No change occurred in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended June 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II- OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings.

 

On February 18, 2016, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, or the Asset Purchase Agreement, with Novatel Wireless, Inc., or the Seller, pursuant to which we agreed to acquire certain assets and liabilities of the Seller used in the operation of its telematics hardware business, or the Telematics Business Acquisition. The Asset Purchase Agreement provided that the Telematics Business Acquisition would close on or before March 31, 2016, subject to certain extensions and termination provisions.  On April 11, 2016, the Seller notified us that it was terminating the Asset Purchase Agreement due to the failure to meet such closing deadline and certain conditions required to extend it, and demanded a termination fee equal to $250 thousand pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement. On May 3, 2016, the Seller filed a complaint in the Superior District Court of the State of Delaware naming us as the defendant. The complaint alleges, among other things, that we breached the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and seeks, among other things, the payment of the termination fee equal to $250 thousand plus interest as well as all costs and expenses associated with the commencement of the lawsuit. On June 27, 2016, we filed our answer to the complaint in which we rejected the claims made by Seller. The suit is currently in its early stages of discovery and exchange of interrogatories. We have made a $250 thousand provision in our financial statements for any claims relating to such litigation.
