NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(USD In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)

 

 

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

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., or we, Micronet Enertec or the Company.

 

We operate primarily through two Israel-based companies, Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd., or Enertec, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and Micronet Ltd., or Micronet, in which we held 50.07% as of September 30, 2017 and is controlled by us.

 

On February 23, 2017, Micronet filed an immediate report with the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange announcing that it had closed on a public offering of its ordinary shares and sold an aggregate of 6,100,000 shares of its ordinary shares for aggregate gross proceeds of NIS 9,844,020. As a result of the public offering, the Company’s ownership interest in Micronet was diluted from 62.9% to 49.31%. In order to maintain a controlling interest of Micronet, on February 27, 2017, the Company purchased an additional 140,000 shares of Micronet in a separate transaction with a shareholder of Micronet. In addition, on February 28, 2017, Mr. David Lucatz, our President and Chief Executive Officer, executed an irrevocable proxy assigning his voting power over 45,000 shares of Micronet for our benefit. As a result, our voting interest of Micronet was increased to 50.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet.

 

Micronet is a publicly traded company on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and operates in the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management, or 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 telematics service providers and solution providers specializing in the MRM market.

 

Enertec operates in the Aerospace and Defense 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.

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.   All significant inter-company transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Functional Currency

 

The functional currency of Micronet Enertec is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is their local currency. The financial statements of those companies are included in consolidation, based on translation into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end-exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at monthly average exchange rates during the year. Differences resulting from translation are presented in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

 

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 lost. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash equivalents are considered by the Company to be highly-liquid investments, including inter-alia, short-term deposits with banks, which do not exceed maturities of three months at the time of deposit and which are not restricted.

  

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s subsidiary, Enertec, enters into long-term fixed-price contracts with customers to manufacture test systems, simulators and airborne applications. Revenues on these long-term fixed-price contracts are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. In using the percentage of completion method, revenues are generally recorded based on the percentage of cost incurred to date on a contract relative to the estimated total expected contract cost. Management uses historical experience, project plans and an assessment of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the arrangement to establish the total estimated costs. The percentage of completion is established by the costs incurred to date as a percentage of the estimated total costs of each contract (cost-to-cost method). Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs.

 

The Company recognizes revenues on a project when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, recoverability is probable, and project costs are incurred. The Company recognizes anticipated contract losses, if any, in the period in which they first became evident. As of September 30, 2017, approximately $5,334 (on December 31, 2016: $4,805) of the accounts receivable balance was unbilled due to the customers’ payment terms.

 

Revenues from the sales of MRM products are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, consideration is fixed and determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The title and risk of loss passes to the customer, delivery has occurred and acceptance is satisfied as the product leaves the Company premises.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade and financing receivables are not overstated due to uncollectability. The allowance for doubtful accounts was based on specific receivables, which their collection, in the opinion of Company’s management, is in doubt. Trade receivables are charged off in the period in which they are deemed to be uncollectible. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $486 and $563, respectively.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

 

Inventories

 

Inventories of raw materials are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. Cost of work in process comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Annual rates of depreciation are as follows:

 

Leasehold improvements   Over the shorter of the lease term or the
life of the assets
Machinery and equipment   7-14 years
Furniture and fixtures   10-14 years
Transportation equipment   7 years
Computer equipment   3 years

  

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the fair market value method under which compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the vesting period, which is usually the service period. For stock options, fair value is determined using an option-pricing model that takes into account the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock, the expected dividends on it, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are charged to statements of income as incurred net of grants from the Israel Innovation Authority (formerly known as the Israel Office of the Chief Scientist of the Ministry of Economy).

 

Loss per Share

 

Basic net earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each year.

 

Long-Lived Assets and Intangible assets

 

Intangible assets that are not considered to have an indefinite useful life are amortized using the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company evaluates property and equipment and purchased intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flow and recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated undiscounted future cash flow expected to result from the use of the asset plus the net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. When the Company identifies an impairment, it reduces the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, no indicators of impairment have been identified.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a business combination over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is subject to an annual impairment test.  The Company has two operating segments: MRM and Aerospace and Defense. The goodwill was allocated to one reporting unit which included in the MRM division. The goodwill impairment tests are conducted in two steps. In the first step, the Company determines the fair value of the reporting unit. If the net book value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company would then perform the second step of the impairment test which requires allocation of the reporting unit’s fair value of all of its assets and liabilities in a manner similar to an acquisition cost allocation, with any residual fair value being allocated to goodwill. The implied fair value of the goodwill is then compared to the carrying value to determine impairment, if any.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, ASC 220-10, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” requires the Company to report in its consolidated financial statements, in addition to its net income, comprehensive income (loss), which includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources including, as applicable, foreign currency items and other items.

 

The Company’s other comprehensive income for all periods presented is related to the translation from functional currency to the presentation currency.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the “asset and liability” method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, when it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or non-current based on the expected reversal dates of the specific temporary differences.

 

The Company applied FASB ASC Topic 740-10-25, “Income Taxes,” which provides guidance for recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions and prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefits of the uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. It also provides accounting guidance on derecognizing, classification and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions. The Company’s policy on classification of all interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax positions, if any, is to present them as a component of income tax expense. 

 

Financial Instruments

 

1.

Concentration of credit risks:

 

Financial instruments that have the potential to expose the Company to credit risks are mainly cash and cash equivalents, bank deposit accounts, marketable securities and trade receivables.

 

The Company holds cash and cash equivalents, securities and deposit accounts at large banks in Israel, thereby substantially reducing the risk of loss.

 

With respect to trade receivables, the risk is limited due to the geographically spreading, nature and size of the entities that constitute the Company’s customer base. The Company assesses the financial position of its customers prior to the engagement with them.

 

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers for the purpose of determining the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and generally does not require collateral. An appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts is included in the accounts.

2.

Fair value measurement:

 

The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. 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.

 

The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

 

  Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 

  Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

 

  Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

 

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-11. The amendments in Part I of the ASU change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded derivatives) with down round features. When determining the classification of an instrument as a liability or as equity, entities will be required to disregard down round features upon the assessment of whether the instrument is indexed to the entity's own stock. Entities that provide earnings per share (EPS) data will adjust their basic EPS calculation for the effect of the feature when it is triggered (i.e. upon the occurrence of an event that results in the reduction of the strike price of the related equity-linked financial instrument), and will recognize the effect of the feature within equity. Part II of this guidance replaces the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480, Distinguishing liabilities from equity, mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests and mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of non-public entities with a scope exception. The amendments in part I of the ASU should be applied either retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective or retrospectively for each prior reporting period presented. These amendments are effective for reporting periods (interim and annual) beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-09, which clarifies when an entity should account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the ASU, modification accounting is required if the fair value, vesting conditions or classification of the award changes because of the change in terms or conditions. The amendments in this update will be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the effective date. The amendments are effective for reporting periods (interim and annual) beginning after December 15, 2017.

The goodwill impairment test will be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. The amendments should be applied on a prospective basis. For public business entities that are SEC filers, the amendments are effective for annual or any interim impairment tests in reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09), which requires that the Company will recognize revenues when a customer obtains control of a promised good or service (the asset), rather than when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset transfer to the customer. The standard also includes extensive disclosure requirements. ASU 2014-09, as amended, is effective for us beginning January 1, 2018. The company plans to adopt the standard in the first quarter of 2018.

 

The Company analyzed its long-term contracts in accordance with the criteria for over time recognition in ASC 606-10-25-27. The company concluded that these contracts meet ASC 606-10-25-27(c) because its performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the entity, and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. In addition, the Company is still evaluating other potential accounting effects as a result of the adoption of ASC 606.

NOTE 6 — LOAN FROM OTHERS

 

On June 30, October 28, and December 22, 2016, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Enertec Electronics Ltd., entered into a note purchase agreement with YA II PV Ltd., or YA II, a Cayman Island exempt limited partnership and affiliate of Yorkville Advisors Global, LLC, whereby YA II purchased $600, $500 and $1,000 of our notes from the Company. The outstanding principal balance of the notes bears interest at 7% per annum. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the notes), all amounts payable may be due immediately. In connection with the note purchase agreements, the Company granted to YA II a five-year warrant to purchase 252,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share.

 

On June 8, 2017, the Company entered into another note purchase agreement with YA II whereby YA II agreed to lend the Company $600 pursuant to an additional secured promissory note. The outstanding principal balance of the additional note bears interest at 7% per annum. The additional note matures on December 31, 2018. The Company shall make payments of $100 on September 30, 2018 and $500 on December 31, 2018.

 

Pursuant to the June 8, 2017 note purchase agreement, the Company and YA II agreed to amend the terms of the promissory notes issued by the Company to YA II dated June 30, 2016, or the June 2016 Note, October 28, 2016, or the October 2016 Note, and December 22, 2016, or the December 2016 Note, respectively.

 

The June 2016 Note was amended to (i) extend the maturity date to December 31, 2017 and (ii) amend the repayment schedule owed under such note such that $150 shall be payable by the Company on each of October 10, 2016, May 1, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017 (The Company already made the October 10, 2016 and the May 1, 2017 payments).

 

The October 2016 Note was amended to (i) extend the maturity date to March 31, 2018 and (ii) amend the repayment schedule such that on May 1, 2017, September 30, 2017, December 31,2017 and March 31, 2018 the Company shall make payments of $150, $100, $150 and $100, respectively (The Company already made the May 1, 2017 payment).

 

The December 2016 Note was amended to (i) extend the maturity date to September 30, 2018 and (ii) amend the repayment schedule such that on March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018 the Company shall make payments of $300, $400 and $300, respectively.

 

In addition, the Company agreed to amend the exercise price of the 252,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company, which were granted in connection with the June 30, 2016, October 28, 2016 and December 22, 2016 note purchase agreements, to $2.00 per share.

 

The Company evaluated the modifications to the terms of the loans in accordance with the guidance in ASC 470-50-40 regarding de-recognition of debt, and concluded that the new loans are not substantially different from the original loans. Therefore, these modifications were not accounted for as extinguishment of the existing debt.

 

On August 22, 2017, the Company and its subsidiary, Enertec Electronics Ltd., executed a Supplemental Agreement with YA II, or the Supplemental Agreement, which supplements a note purchase agreement executed by the parties on October 28, 2016. Pursuant to the Supplemental Agreement, the Company borrowed $1,500 from YA II pursuant to the terms of a secured promissory note, or the August 2017 Note. The outstanding principal balance of the August 2017 Note shall bear interest at 7% per annum. The August 2017 Note was to mature on November 22, 2017.

NOTE 7 –STANDBY EQUITY DISTRIBUTION

 

On August 22, 2017, the Company entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement, or the 2017 SEDA with YA II for the sale of up to $10,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock over a three-year commitment period.  Under the terms of the 2017 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 and YA II previously entered into a prior Standby Equity Distribution Agreement on June 30, 2016, or the 2016 SEDA, for the sale of up to $2,390 of shares of the Company’s common stock over a three year period

 

The Company is not obligated to utilize any of the $10,000 available under the 2017 SEDA and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties.  The total amount of funds that ultimately can be raised under the 2017 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. YA II is obligated under the 2017 SEDA to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock from the Company subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to the Company filing a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, to register the resale by YA II of shares of common stock sold to YA II under the 2017 SEDA, or the Registration Statement, and the SEC declaring such Registration Statement effective.

 

The 2017 SEDA does not impose any restrictions on the Company’s operating activities. During the term of the 2017 SEDA, YA II is prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to the Company’s common stock.

 

In connection with the 2017 SEDA, the Company agreed to pay YA Global II SPV, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of YA II, a commitment fee in the amount of $800, or the Commitment Fee, in the aggregate, which was to be paid in eight quarterly installments of $100, with the first installment due and payable on the fifth trading day following the execution of the SEDA. The Commitment Fee may be paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock. We paid YA II $50 out of the first installment of the Commitment Fee.

 

NOTE 8 –SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On November 3, 2017, the Company offered YA II 358,294 shares of its common stock for a total sale amount of $300 pursuant to the 2016 SEDA. As of the date hereof, the Company has exhausted the 2016 SEDA.

 

On November 19, 2017, we entered into an agreement with YA II whereby the commitment fee repayment terms were amended such that (i) $200 of the commitment fee shall be payable as follows: $50 shall be due and payable on March 31, 2018, $50 shall be due and payable on September 30, 2018, $50 shall be due and payable on March 31, 2019, and $50 shall be due and payable on September 30, 2019, and (ii) we shall pay the remaining $600 as follows: $90 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $3,000, $30 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $4,000, $30 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $5,000, $150 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $6,000, $50 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $7,000, $130 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $8,000, $60 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $9,000 and $60 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $10,000.

 

On November 19, 2017, the Company and YA II amended the maturity date of the August 2017 Note to February 15, 2018 and provided that the Company may extend such maturity date to January 15, 2019 at its sole discretion, or the Extension. In the event the Company elects to utilize the Extension, the Company has agreed to (i) pay an aggregate of $200 of principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest under the August 2017 Note on March 31, 2018, (ii) pay an aggregate of $200 of principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest under the August 2017 Note on June 30, 2018, (iii) pay an extension fee of $50 and (iv) issue YA II a five-year warrant to purchase 158,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The Company expects to extend the maturity date to August 22, 2018.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Overview

 

We provide high tech solutions for severe environments and the battlefield, including missile defense technologies for Aerospace and Defense and rugged mobile devices for the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management, or MRM, market. We design, develop, manufacture and supply customized military computer-based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments, addressing a multi-billion-dollar defense industry. Solutions and systems are integrated into critical systems such as command and control, missile fire control, maintenance of military aircraft and missiles for the Israeli Air Force, Israeli Navy and by foreign defense entities. Our MRM division develops, manufactures and provides mobile computing platforms for the multibillion dollar mobile logistics management market in the U.S., Europe and Israel. American-manufactured systems are designed for outdoor and challenging work environments in trucking, distribution, logistics, public safety and construction.

 

 16 

 

 

We operate primarily through two Israel-based companies, Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd., or Enertec, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and Micronet Ltd, or Micronet, in which we have a controlling interest, which develop, manufacture, integrate and globally market rugged computers, tablets and computer-based systems and instruments for the commercial, Aerospace and Defense markets. Our products, solutions and services are designed to perform in severe environments and battlefield conditions.

 

Micronet is a publicly-traded company on 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 Beijer, or the Vehicle Business, 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.

 

Enertec operates in the Aerospace and Defense 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 market technological needs 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, Israeli Navy and by foreign defense entities.

 

On March 30, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors approved a spinoff of the Aerospace and Defense division of the Company into a stand-alone entity. Upon completion, if such spinoff moves forward, the Company's shareholders will own 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock in a new entity, or NewCo, on a pro-rata basis. The spinoff will be subject to certain customary conditions and shareholder approval of the spinoff is not required. The Company’s Board of Directors is still considering whether, and when, to move forward with the spinoff. There is no guarantee that the Company will proceed with implementing the spinoff or whether it will be successful in doing so.

 

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. 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 the Israeli domestic market, the U.S. market and the European market.

Results of Operations

 

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016

 

Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $6,931,000 and $18,110,000, respectively, compared to $5,354,000 and $18,557,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents an increase of $1,577,000 and decrease of $447,000, or 29% and 2%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The increase in revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017, is mainly due to the increase in revenues of the MRM segment. The decrease in revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is mainly due to the decrease in revenues of the Aerospace and Defense segment.


Total revenues related to the Aerospace and Defense segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $1,458,000 and $6,173,000, respectively, compared to $1,703,000 and $6,556,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents a decrease of $245,000 and $383,000, or 14% and 6%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The decrease in revenues is mainly due to delayed deliveries associated with obtaining necessary working capital.

 

Total revenues related to the MRM segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $5,473,000 and $11,937,000, respectively, compared to $3,651,000 and $12,001,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents an increase of $1,822,000, or 50%, and a decrease of $64,000, or 1%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The increase in the MRM revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 is mainly due to increase in sales associated with Micronet’s new product line. The decrease in the MRM revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 is mainly due to delays in production associated with Micronet’s new product line. 

 

Our backlog as of September 30, 2017 was $20,500,000.

 

Our gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 changed by $506,000 and $1,600,000, respectively, to $1,561,000 and $3,092,000, and represents 23% and 17% of the revenues. This is in comparison to gross profit of $1,055,000 and $4,692,000, respectively, and represents 20% and 25% of the revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.

 

Micronet’s gross profit changed from 29% in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, to 27% and 22% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The decrease in gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 mainly attributed to manufacturing costs, associated with Micronet’s new product line. The decrease in gross profit for the nine month ended September 30, 2017 is attributed to an increase in costs during the first half of 2017 associated with the introduction of Micronet’s new product line.

 

Enertec’s gross profit changed from (1%) and 18% in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, to 4% and 7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The decreases in Enertec’s gross profits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are attributable to engaging in strategic defense contracts with lower profitability and delayed deliveries.

 

Selling and Marketing

 

Selling and marketing costs are part of operating expenses. Selling and marketing costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $598,000 and $1,745,000, respectively, compared to $538,000 and $1,374,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents an increase of $59,000 and $371,000, or 11% and 27%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 respectively. The increases are mainly due to increases in sales support employees and marketing expenses.

  

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative costs are part of operating expenses. General and administrative costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $1,268,000 and $3,874,000, respectively, compared to $1,323,000 and $3,977,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents a decrease of $55,000 and $103,000, or 4% and 2%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 respectively. The decrease is mainly attributed to a decrease in professional expenses.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are part of operating expenses. Research and development costs, which mainly include wages, materials and sub-contractors, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $676,000 and $1,810,000, respectively, compared to $476,000 and $1,859,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents an increase of $200,000, or 42%, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and a decrease of $49,000, or 2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The reason for the increase in research and development costs for the three months ended September 30, 2017 is mainly due to an increase in wages and royalties as a result of an increase in sales.

 

Loss from operations

 

Our loss from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $1,248,000 and $5,074,000, respectively, or 18% and 28% of revenues, compared to loss from operations of $1,516,000 and $3,212,000, or 28% and 18% of revenues, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. The decrease in our loss from operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2017 is mainly a result of the increases in sales and in gross profit. The increase in our loss from operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017 is mainly a result of a decrease in gross profit and increase in the operating expenses as described above.

Financial Expenses, net

 

Financial expenses, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $216,000 and $651,000, respectively, compared to expenses of $151,000 and $412,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents an increase of $65,000 and $239,000, or 43% and 58%, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The increase in financial expenses in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to changes in currency exchange rates.

 

Net loss attributed to Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc.

 

Our net loss attributed to Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. was $1,295,000 and $4,238,000 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, compared to a net loss of $1,283,000 and $2,841,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This represents an increase in net loss of $12,000 and $1,397,000, or 1% and 49%, as compared to the same periods last year. The increases in net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are attributed to the decreases in revenues and in gross profit and increases in operating expenses as described above.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, 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 our acquisition of Micronet in 2012 and the Vehicle Business of Beijer in 2014. 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 changes 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 - Stock based compensation consists of 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.
     
 

Amortization of note discount - These expenses are non-cash and are related to amortization of discount of the note purchase agreements with YA II. Such expenses do not reflect our on-going operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company finances its operations through current revenues, loans and securities offerings. The loans are divided into bank loans, a loan from Meydan Family Trust No 3, or Meydan, as described below and loans from YA II, as described below.

 

As of September 30, 2017, our total cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities balance was $9,201,000 (of which marketable securities amounted to $0), as compared to $8,134,000 (of which marketable securities amounted to $2,978,000) as of December 31, 2016. This reflects an increase of $1,067,000 in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities. The increase in cash and cash equivalents is primarily a result of loans from YA II. 

 

On June 30, 2016, the Company and Enertec, collectively, the Borrowers, entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with YA II, whereby YA II purchased $600,000 of notes from the Borrowers. The outstanding principal balance of the notes bears interest at 7% per annum. On a quarterly basis commencing on October 10, 2016, the Borrowers were required to make payments of $150,000 of principal plus accrued interest. All amounts payable were to be due on July 10, 2017, which was subsequently extended to December 31, 2017. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Notes, all amounts payable may be due immediately.

 

On October 28, 2016, the Borrowers entered into an additional Note Purchase Agreement with YA II whereby YA II loaned an additional $500,000 to the Borrowers pursuant to an additional secured promissory note. The outstanding principal balance of the additional note bears interest at 7% per annum. The additional note was to mature on November 20, 2017, which was subsequently extended to March 31, 2018. The Borrowers agreed to make payments of $125,000 from the principal balance of the additional note plus all accrued and unpaid interest on each of March 20, 2017, June 20, 2017, September 20, 2017 and November 20, 2017. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the additional note, all amounts payable may be due immediately.

 

On December 22, 2016, the Borrowers entered into a Supplemental Agreement with YA II, whereby YA II agreed to lend us an additional $1,000,000 pursuant to a secured promissory note. The outstanding principal balance of this note bears interest at 7% per annum. The note was to mature on December 20, 2017, which was subsequently extended to September 30, 2018. The Borrowers agreed to use 50% of the net proceeds of any cash raised from financing transactions completed while the note is outstanding to repay the principal and interest on the note. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, all amounts payable may be due immediately.

 

On June 8, 2017, the Borrowers entered into the Second Supplemental Agreement with YA II, whereby YA II agreed to lend us $600,000 pursuant to an additional secured promissory note. The outstanding principal balance of the additional note bears interest at 7% per annum. The additional note was to mature on December 31, 2018. The Borrowers have agreed to make payments of $100,000 on September 30, 2018 and $500,000 on December 31, 2018. The note, along with the other notes held by YA II, are secured by a pledge of shares of Micronet owned by Enertec.

 

Pursuant to the Second Supplemental Agreement, the Borrowers and YA II agreed to amend the terms of the June 2016 Note, the October 2016 Note, and the December 2016 Note, respectively. Pursuant to the Second Supplemental Agreement, the June 2016 Note was amended to (i) extend the maturity date to December 31, 2017 and (ii) amend the repayment schedule owed under such note such that $150,000 shall be payable by the Borrowers on each of October 10, 2016, May 1, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2017 (provided, however, that we have previously repaid the October 10, 2016 and May 1, 2017 payments). Pursuant to the Second Supplemental Agreement, the October 2016 Note was amended to (i) extend the maturity date to March 31, 2018 and (ii) amend the repayment schedule such that on May 1, 2017 the Borrowers shall make a payment of $150,000 (provided, however, that we have previously repaid the May 1, 2017 payment), on September 30, 2017 the Borrowers shall make a payment of $100,000, on December 31, 2017 the Borrowers shall make a payment of $150,000 and on March 31, 2018 the Borrowers shall make a payment of $100,000. Pursuant to the Supplemental Agreement, the December 2016 Note was amended to (i) extend the maturity date to September 30, 2018 and (ii) amend the repayment schedule such that on March 31, 2018, the Borrowers shall make a payment of $300,000, on June 30, 2018 the Borrowers shall make a payment of $400,000 and on September 30, 2018 the Borrowers shall make a payment of $300,000.

In addition, the Borrowers agreed to amend the exercise price of warrants to purchase 66,000 shares of our common stock issued to YA II on June 30, 2016, with an original exercise price of $4.30 per share, warrants to purchase 66,000 shares of our common stock issued to YA II on October 28, 2016, with an original exercise price of $3.00 per share, and warrants to purchase 120,000 shares of our common stock issued to YA II on December 22, 2016, with an original exercise price of $3.00 per share, to $2.00 per share. The warrants also provide for demand and piggyback registration rights.

 

The Borrowers agreed to pay to YA Global II SPV LLC (as designee of YA II) a commitment fee in the amount of $25,000 and a $25,000 extension fee in consideration for amending the terms of the June 2016, October 2016 and December 2016 Notes. In addition, the Borrowers agreed to accelerate a commitment fee of $50,000, payable pursuant to a First Supplemental Agreement dated December 22, 2016, to be paid at the closing of the Note.

 

In connection with the Second Supplemental Agreement and issuance of the additional note, on June 8, 2017, we agreed to grant to YA II a five-year warrant to purchase 90,000 shares. The warrant is exercisable at an exercise price equal to $2.00 per share of common stock for cash or on a cashless basis if no registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant is available. The warrant also provides for demand and piggyback registration rights.

 

On June 8, 2017, we entered into another note purchase agreement with YA II whereby YA II agreed to lend us $600,000 pursuant to an additional secured promissory note. The outstanding principal balance of the additional note bears interest at 7% per annum. The additional note matures on December 31, 2018. We shall make payments of $100,000 on September 30, 2018 and $500,000 on December 31, 2018.

 

On August 22, 2017, the Borrowers executed the Third Supplemental Agreement which supplements a note purchase agreement executed by the parties on October 28, 2016. Pursuant to the Third Supplemental Agreement, we borrowed $1.5 million from YA II pursuant to the terms of a secured promissory note. The outstanding principal balance of the note shall bear interest at 7% per annum. The note was to mature on November 22, 2017. On November 19, 2017, the Company and YA II amended the maturity date of the August 2017 Note to February 15, 2018 and provided that the Company may extend such maturity date to January 15, 2019 at its sole discretion. In the event we elect to utilize such extension, we have agreed to (i) pay an aggregate of $200,000 of principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest under the note on March 31, 2018, (ii) pay an aggregate of $200,000 of principal plus all accrued and unpaid interest under the note on June 30, 2018, (iii) pay an extension fee of $50,000 and (iv) shall issue YA II a five-year warrant to purchase 158,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The warrant also provides for demand and piggyback registration rights.

 

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the notes), all amounts payable may be due immediately. In addition, if we receive any cash proceeds in connection with the sale or proposed sale of any of our holdings in any of our subsidiaries (if and to the extent such transaction is consummated) including without limitation, installment payments or break-up fee payments, we are required to pre-pay the outstanding balance of the note as soon as such proceeds are received. The notes are secured by a pledge of shares of Micronet owned by Enertec.

 

On August 22, 2017, the Company entered into the 2017 SEDA with YA II for the sale of up to $10 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 2017 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 is not obligated to utilize any of the $10 million available under the 2017 SEDA and there are no minimum commitments or minimum use penalties.  The total amount of funds that ultimately can be raised under the 2017 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. YA II is obligated under the SEDA to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock from the Company subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to the Company filing a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, to register the resale by YA II of shares of common stock sold to YA II under the 2017 SEDA and the SEC declaring such registration statement effective. The 2017 SEDA does not impose any restrictions on the Company’s operating activities. During the term of the 2017 SEDA, YA II is prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to the Company’s common stock.

 

In connection with the 2017 SEDA, the Company agreed to pay YA Global II SPV, LLC (as designee of YA II), a commitment fee in the amount of $800,000, or the Commitment Fee, in the aggregate, which was to be paid in eight quarterly installments of $100,000, with the first installment due and payable on the fifth trading day following the execution of the 2017 SEDA. The Commitment Fee may be paid in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company paid YA II $50,000 out of the first installment of the Commitment Fee. On November 19, 2017, we entered into an agreement with YA II whereby the commitment fee repayment terms were amended such that (i) $200,000 of the commitment fee shall be payable as follows: $50,000 shall be due and payable on March 31, 2018, $50,000 shall be due and payable on September 30, 2018, $50,000 shall be due and payable on March 31, 2019, and $50,000 shall be due and payable on September 30, 2019, and (ii) we shall pay the remaining $600,000 as follows: $90,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $3,000,000, $30,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $4,000,000, $30,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $5,000,000, $150,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $6,000,000, $50,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $7,000,000, $130,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $8,000,000, $60,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $9,000,000 and $60,000 shall be paid when the aggregate advance amounts under the SEDA shall total $10,000,000.

 

On September 2, 2015, Enertec entered into a Credit Line Agreement, or the Credit Line Agreement, with a financing firm, or the Financing Firm, pursuant to which the Financing Firm agreed to grant Enertec a credit line. The maximum aggregate amount of the Credit Line Agreement was $675,000 and up to 85% of open trade receivables invoices. The annual interest rate was Prime plus 1.75%. The Credit Line Agreement expired on September 15, 2017. As of September 30, 2017, Enertec had financed $349,000 pursuant to the Credit Line Agreement.

 

On December 30, 2015, we entered into a Loan Agreement, or the Meydan Loan, with Meydan, pursuant to which Meydan agreed to loan us the principal amount of $750,000 on certain terms and conditions. The proceeds of the Meydan Loan have been used by us for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Meydan loan bears interest at the rate of Libor plus 8% per annum and is due and payable in 3 installments beginning on September 4, 2017. Following understanding between the parties, the Company did not make the required installment payment on September 4, 2017 and is currently negotiating new repayment terms of the Meydan Loan.

On June 17, 2014, Enertec Electronics entered into a loan agreement, or the Mercantile Loan Agreement, with Mercantile Discount Bank Ltd., or Mercantile Bank, pursuant to which Mercantile Bank agreed to loan us approximately $3,631,000 on certain terms and conditions, or the Mercantile Loan. The proceeds of the Mercantile Loan were used by us: (1) to refinance previous loans granted to us in the amount of approximately $1,333,000; (2) to complete the purchase by us, via Enertec, of 1.2 million shares of Micronet constituting 6.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet; and (3) for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Mercantile Loan Agreement: (1) approximately $3,050,000 of the Mercantile Loan bears interest at a quarterly adjustable rate of Prime plus 2.45%, or the Mercantile Long Term Portion, and (2) approximately $581,000 of the Mercantile Loan bears interest at a quarterly adjustable rate of Prime plus 1.7%, or the Mercantile Short Term Portion. The Mercantile Long Term Portion is due and payable in five equal consecutive annual installments beginning on July 1, 2015, and the interest on the Mercantile Long Term Portion is due and payable in ten equal consecutive annual installments beginning at January 1, 2015. The Mercantile Short Term Portion in the amount of approximately $581,000 bears interest of Prime plus 1.7%. The Mercantile Loan is secured mainly by (1) a negative pledge on Enertec’s assets, (2) a pledge of Enertec’s financial deposits which shall be equal to 25% of Enertec’s outstanding credit balance, and (3) a fixed charge of Micronet shares at such value equal to at least 200% of the outstanding net balance of the Mercantile Loan. The Mercantile Loan is subject to customary covenants, terms, conditions, events of default and certain pre-payment provisions. As of September 30,, 2017, the balance on the Mercantile Loan was $1,769,000 and the interest rates were Prime plus 2.45% and Prime plus 1.7% for the Mercantile Long Term Portion and the Mercantile Short Term Portion, respectively.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Mercantile Loan Agreement, Enertec agreed to grant Mercantile Bank a five-year Phantom Stock Option, or the Phantom Stock Option, pursuant to which Mercantile Bank is entitled to participate in the future appreciation of our shares and receive a cash amount equal to the increase in the value of the shares underlying the Phantom Stock Option on certain terms and conditions. The Phantom Stock Option allows Mercantile Bank to theoretically exercise, on a cashless basis, options to purchase 1,144,820 shares of Micronet, or the Option Shares, and to receive a cash amount equal to the difference between approximately 4 million NIS, (representing 110 percent of the average market value of Micronet Option Shares during the 30 trading days prior to the date of the Mercantile Loan) and the actual market price of such Option Shares on the date of the exercise of the Phantom Stock Option. Pursuant to the Mercantile Loan Agreement, the parties further agreed that the potential gain to Mercantile Bank resulting from the Phantom Stock Option shall not exceed NIS 3 million. In the event the Mercantile Loan is repaid prior to the third anniversary of the Mercantile Loan, the gain to Mercantile Bank resulting from the Phantom Stock Option shall not exceed NIS 2 million. As of the date of the Mercantile Loan the exercise price of the Phantom Stock Options is higher than the market price of the Option Shares. As of September 30, 2017, the fair value of this Phantom Stock Option was $4,000.

 

Following two years of consecutive losses, one of the commercial banks providing Enertec with a credit line decreased such credit line. In addition, the commercial bank notified Enertec that it expects Enertec to provide a plan to continue to reduce its existing credit line and Enertec and the commercial bank are in the process of negotiating the terms of such a plan, as well as negotiating amendments to the existing credit line. The decrease of the credit line as well as the prospective plan may have (i) a material adverse effect on Enertec’s current on-going working capital needs and (ii) its ability to meet its growth targets. In order to maintain current credit facilities required to ensure Enertec’s ability to meet its growth objectives, we are currently negotiating alternative credit lines with various financial institutions, including the aforementioned commercial bank.

As of September 30, 2017, our total current assets were $26,691,000, as compared to $25,769,000 at December 31, 2016. The increase is mainly due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents.

 

Our trade accounts receivable at September 30, 2017 were $10,002,000 as compared to $11,558,000 at December 31, 2016.

 

As of September 30, 2017, our working capital was $4,722,000, as compared to $6,149,000 at December 31, 2016.

 

As of September 30, 2017, our total debt was $14,676,000 as compared to $14,388,000 at December 31, 2016.

 

Our bank and other debt is composed of short-term loans amounting to $13,524,000 as of September 30, 2017 compared to $13,107,000 at December 31, 2016, and long-term loans amounting to $1,152,000 as of September 30, 2017 compared to $1,281,000 at December 31, 2016.

 

Our debt includes our bank debt, a working capital credit facility, a loan from Meydan, the Credit Line Agreement and the loans from YA II as described below: 

 

 

 

Our bank debt is composed of short-term loans to Enertec Electronics Ltd, and Enertec amounting to $9,953,000 as of September 30, 2017 compared to $9,993,000, at December 31, 2016, and long-term loans amounting to $594,000 as of September 30, 2017 compared to $1,093,000 at December 31, 2016.  The short-term loans bear interest rates between Israeli prime (currently 1.60%) plus 0.7% to 2.45%.  The long-term loans have maturity dates between July 2018 and July 2019 and bear interest rates between Israeli Prime plus 1.25% to 2.45%.

 

  Enertec has covenanted under its bank loans at June 30 and December 31 of each year, among other things that (1) its shareholder’s equity according to its financial statements will not fall below NIS 17 million, and (2) its shareholder’s equity will not be lower than 30% of the total liabilities on its balance sheet. Enertec has not met all of its bank covenants as of September 30, 2017. As a result the Company reclassified its loans from long-term to short-term liabilities.

 

  Enertec Electronics has covenanted under its bank loan mainly that the Company will present separate financial statements equity of not less than 32.5% of total assets. Certain restricted cash stands as a collateral for the loan.
     
  The Company has an outstanding balance of $871,000, which is comprised of a principal balance of $750,000 as well as accrued and unpaid interest, under the Meydan loan with interest at the rate of Libor plus 8% per annum.

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 filed a Form S-3 registration statement (File No. 333-219596) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with the SEC using a “shelf” registration process, which was declared effective on November 8, 2017. Under this shelf registration process, we may, from time to time, sell common stock, warrants or units in one or more offerings up to a total dollar amount of $30 million.

 

In addition, we utilized our 2016 SEDA which we executed with YA II on June 30, 2016 for purposes of raising capital. The 2016 SEDA did not impose any restrictions on our operating activities. During the term of the 2016 SEDA, YA II was prohibited from engaging in any short selling or hedging transactions related to our common stock. As of November 17, 2017, we have sold $2,386,750 of our common stock pursuant to the 2016 SEDA and have fully exhausted the shares available under the 2016 SEDA.

 

On August 22, 2017, we entered into the 2017 SEDA for the sale of up to $10 million of shares of the Company’s common stock over a two-year commitment period. Under the terms of the 2017 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. The Company intends to utilize the 2017 SEDA once the registration statement registering the shares available under the 2017 SEDA, is declared effective by the SEC.

 

Based on its current business plan and existing credit lines, the Company anticipates that its existing cash balances and cash generated from future sales, will be sufficient to permit it to conducts its operations and carry out its contemplated business plans for the next twelve months. However, the Company believes that it may need to raise additional funds if it wants to materially decrease its dependence on its existing cash and other liquidity resources. Currently, the only external sources of liquidity are the Company’s banks, the Meydan Loan, the YA II loans and the 2017 SEDA, and the Company may seek additional financing from them or through securities offerings. The Company intends to use such funds in order to expand its operations, refinancing its various debts, develop new products, enhance existing products or respond to competitive pressures. However, the Company may also undertake additional debt or conduct equity financings (including sales of common stock, warrants or units under our shelf registration statement) to better enable use 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. Further, there is no assurance that we will be able to borrow additional funds on favorable terms or at all.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect that is material to investors on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

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 Ms. Tali Dinar, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (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 September 30, 2017. 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 September 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Previously, Ms. Dinar  served as our Chief Financial Officer from  May 2010 until May 2015, Chief Financial Officer of Enertec between 2010 and 2014 and the Chief Financial Officer of Micronet from May 2015 until January 2016. From 2002 until 2007, she was the chief controller of I.T.L. Optronics Ltd.  Ms. Dinar holds a B.A. in Accounting and Business Management from The College of Management Academic Studies and earned her CPA certificate in 1999.

 

On August 12, 2013, Ms. Dinar entered into an employment agreement with the Company, pursuant to which, Ms. Dinar (1) will receive monthly compensation, comprising base salary and customary Israeli pension and social benefits, of approximately 45,000 NIS (approximately $14,000), (2) shall be entitled to a monthly automobile and telephone allowance of approximately 13,000 NIS (approximately $3,600); and (3) shall be entitled to receive bonuses and stock options as shall be determined by the board of directors in consultation with the our Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Dinar may be deemed an at-will employee, as this employment agreement is not limited to certain duration. The agreement is terminable by either party by providing the other party with 90 days prior written notice. Upon termination, Ms. Dinar will be entitled to her base salary through the date of termination and to all amounts deposited in her favor in pension funds, including payments made for severance unless such rights are denied as a matter of applicable law. However, if Ms. Dinar is terminated due to her committing a crime bearing moral turpitude or for causing the Company substantial harm resulting from a material breach of her duties to the Company, Ms. Dinar will not be entitled to receive any prior written notice, and severance may be denied. The agreement also contains customary confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. On July 1, 2016, Ms. Dinar’s monthly compensation, consisting of her base salary and customary Israeli pension and social benefits, was increased to approximately 52,000 NIS (approximately $14,500). In January 2017, Ms. Dinar’s monthly compensation, consisting of her base salary and customary Israeli pension and social benefits, was decreased to approximately 45,000 NIS (approximately $13,000). On September 2017, Ms. Dinar’s monthly compensation, consisting of her base salary and customary Israeli pension and social benefits, was decreased to approximately 35,000 NIS (approximately $10,000) and Ms. Dinar agreed to devote 60% of her time to Company matters. In conjunction with Ms. Dinar’s appointment as Chief Financial Officer of the Company and her employment on full time basis, from September 1, 2017 to February 28, 2018, her base salary will be reduced to 27,000 NIS (approximately $7,700), however with such compensation arrangement to be revisited at the end of such term. If Ms. Dinar is terminated for a reason other than cause, her severance and termination terms will be determined assuming a salary of 52,000 NIS (approximately $14,500). In addition, the Company granted Ms. Dinar 12,500 shares of restricted stock.

 

No family relationships exist between Ms. Dinar and any of the Company's directors or other executive officers. There are no arrangements between Ms. Dinar and any other person pursuant to which Ms. Dinar was selected as an officer, nor are there any transactions to which the Company is or was a participant and in which Ms. Dinar has a material interest subject to disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
