PART I
Item 1 Business
General
Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) is an information technology (“IT”) channel company. We distribute software developed by others through resellers indirectly to customers worldwide. We also resell computer software and hardware developed by others and provide technical services directly to customers in the United States of America (“USA”) and Canada. We offer an extensive line of products from leading publishers of software and tools for virtualization/cloud computing, security, networking, storage & infrastructure management, application lifecycle management and other technically sophisticated domains as well as computer hardware.
Wayside Technology Group, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in 1982. Our Common Stock is listed on The NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “WSTG”. Our main web site address is www.waysidetechnology.com, and the other web sites maintained by our business include www.lifeboatdistribution.com, and www.techxtend.com. Reference to these “uniform resource locators” or “URLs” is made as an inactive textual reference for informational purposes only. Information on our web sites should not be considered filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is not, and should not be deemed to be, a part of this report.
The Company operates through two reportable operating segments. The “Lifeboat Distribution” segment distributes technical software to corporate resellers, value added resellers (VARs), consultants and systems integrators worldwide. The “TechXtend” segment is a value-added reseller of software, hardware and services for corporations, government organizations and academic institutions in the USA and Canada. For each of our segments, sales from unaffiliated customers, income and total assets, among other financial information, is presented in Note 9 in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Competition
The software market is highly competitive. Pricing is very aggressive in both software distribution and reselling. The Company expects pricing pressure to continue. The Company faces competition from a wide variety of sources. In the Lifeboat Distribution segment, we compete against much larger broad-line distributors, as well as specialty distributors and, in some cases, the direct sales teams of the vendors we represent also sell directly to the end-customers. In the TechXtend segment, we also compete against vendors who sell directly to customers, as well as software resellers, superstores, e-commerce vendors, and other direct marketers of software and hardware products. In both segments, some of our competitors are significantly larger and have substantially greater resources than the Company. Many of our competitors compete principally on the basis of price, product availability, customer service and technical support.
There can be no assurance that the Company can compete effectively against existing competitors or new competitors that may enter the market or that it can generate profit margins which represent a fair return to the Company. In addition, price is an important competitive factor in the personal computer software market and there can be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to increased price competition. An increase in the amount of competition faced by the Company, or its failure to compete effectively against its competitors, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company competes to attract prospective buyers and in sourcing new products from software developers and publishers, as well as in marketing its current product line to its customers. The Company believes that its ability to offer software developers and IT professionals easy access to a wide selection of the right IT products at reasonable prices with prompt delivery and high customer service levels, along with its good relationships with vendors and suppliers, allows it to compete effectively in acquiring prospective buyers and marketing its current product line to its customers. The Company competes to gain distribution rights for new products primarily on the basis of its reputation and its relationships with software publishers.
The market for the software products we sell is characterized by rapid changes in technology, user requirements, and customer specifications. The manner in which software products are distributed and sold is changing, and new methods of distribution and sale may emerge or expand. Software developers and publishers have sold, and may intensify their efforts to sell, their products directly to end-users. The continuing evolution of the Internet as a platform in which to conduct e-commerce business transactions has both lowered the barriers for competition and broadened customer access to products and information, increasing competition and reducing prices. From time to time, certain software developers and publishers have instituted programs for the direct sale of large order quantities of software to certain major corporate accounts. These types of programs may continue to be developed and used by various developers and publishers. While software developers and publishers currently sell new releases or upgrades directly to end users, they have not attempted to completely bypass the distribution and reseller channels. There can be no assurances, however, that software developers and publishers will continue using distributors and resellers to the same extent they currently do. Future efforts by software developers and publishers to bypass third- party sales channels could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business operations and financial conditions.
In addition, resellers and publishers may attempt to increase the volume of software products distributed electronically through ESD (Electronic Software Distribution) technology, through subscription services, and through on-line shopping services. Any of these competitive programs, if successful, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. For a description of additional risks relating to competition in our industry, please refer to “Item 1.A. Risk Factors”: “We rely on our suppliers for product availability, marketing funds, purchasing incentives and competitive products to sell”, and “The IT products and services industry is intensely competitive and actions of competitors, including manufacturers of products we sell, can negatively affect our business”.
Products
An essential part of our ongoing operations and growth plans is the continued recruitment of software publishers for which we can sell their products. The Company offers a wide variety of technology products from a broad range of publishers and manufacturers, such as Acronis, Bluebeam Software, CA Technologies, Dell/Dell Software, Flexera Software, Hewlett Packard, Infragistics, Intel Software, JetBrains, Lenovo, Microsoft, Mindjet, Samsung, SAP/Sybase, SmartBear Software, SolarWinds, Sophos, StorageCraft Technology, TechSmith, Telerik, Unitrends, Veeam Software and VMware. On a continuous basis, we screen new products for inclusion in our direct sales portfolio, catalogs and web sites based on their features, quality, price, profit margins and warranties, as well as on current sales trends. Since the Company predominantly sells software, sales of hardware and peripherals represented only 10%, 7% and 6% of our overall net sales in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Marketing and Distribution
We market products through creative marketing communications, including our web sites, local and on-line seminars, print and electronic catalogs. We also use direct e-mail and printed material to introduce new products and upgrades, to cross-sell products to current customers, and to educate and inform existing and potential customers. We believe that our blend of electronic and traditional marketing and selling programs are important marketing vehicles for software publishers and manufacturers. These
programs provide a cost-effective and service-oriented means to market and sell and fulfill software products and meet the needs of users.
The Company had two customers that each accounted for more than 10% of total sales for 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2015, Software House International Corporation (“SHI”), and CDW Corporation (“CDW”) accounted for 19.0%, and 17.9%, respectively, of consolidated net sales and, as of December 31, 2015, 14.0%, and 21.9%, respectively, of total net accounts receivable. The Company had three customers that each accounted for more than 10% of total sales for 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2014, SHI, CDW, and Insight Enterprises, Inc. (“Insight”) accounted for 17.4%, 16.4% and 11.0%, respectively, of consolidated net sales. For the year ended December 31, 2013, SHI, CDW, and Insight accounted for 14.9%, 13.8% and 12.2%, respectively, of consolidated net sales. Our top five customers accounted for 52%, 52%, and 48% of consolidated net sales in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company generally ships products within 48 hours of confirming a customer’s order. This results in minimum backlog in the business.
Sales to customers in Canada represented 6% of our consolidated revenue in 2015, and 7% in each of 2014 and 2013. For geographic financial information, please refer to Note 9 in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Customer Support
We believe that providing a high level of customer service is necessary to compete effectively and is essential to continued sales and revenue growth. Our account representatives assist our customers with all aspects of purchasing decisions, process products ordered and respond to customer inquiries on order status, product pricing and availability. The account representatives are trained to answer all basic questions about the features and functionality of products. To deal with technical issues, we maintain an in-house technical support staff.
Purchasing and Fulfillment
The Company’s success is dependent, in part, upon the ability of its suppliers to develop and market products that meet the changing requirements of the marketplace. The Company believes it enjoys good relationships with its vendors. The Company and its principal vendors have cooperated frequently in product introductions and in other marketing programs. As is customary in the industry, the Company has no long-term supply contracts with any of its suppliers. Substantially all of the Company’s contracts with its vendors are terminable upon 30 days’ notice or less. Moreover, the manner in which software products are distributed and sold is changing, and new methods of distribution and sale may emerge or expand. Software publishers have sold, and may intensify their efforts to sell, their products directly to end-users. The Company’s business and results of operations may be adversely affected if the terms and conditions of the Company’s authorizations with its vendors were to be significantly modified or if certain products become unavailable to the Company.
We believe that effective purchasing from a diverse vendor base is a key element of our business strategy. For the year ended December 31, 2015, Sophos was the only individual vendor from whom our purchases exceeded 10% of our total purchases and accounted for 24.2% of our total purchases. For the year ended December 31, 2014, Sophos was the only individual vendor from whom our purchases exceeded 10% of our total purchases and accounted for 14.7% of our total purchases. For the year ended December 31, 2013, Dell/Quest Software was the only individual vendor from whom our purchases exceeded 10% of our total purchases and accounted for 10.2% of our total purchases. The loss of a key vendor or group of vendors could disrupt our product availability and otherwise have an adverse effect on the Company.
In 2015, the Company purchased approximately 96% of its products directly from manufacturers and publishers and the balance from multiple distributors, as compared to 95% and 93% in 2014 and 2013, respectively. Most suppliers or distributors will “drop ship” products directly to the customers, which reduces physical handling by the Company. Inventory management techniques, such as “drop shipping” allow the Company to offer a greater range of products without increased inventory requirements or associated risk.
Inventory levels may vary from period to period, due in part to increases or decreases in sales levels, the Company’s practice of making large-volume purchases when it deems the terms of such purchases to be attractive, and the addition of new suppliers and products. Moreover, the Company’s order fulfillment and inventory control systems allow the Company to order certain products just in time for next day shipping. The Company promotes the use of electronic data interchange (“EDI”) with its suppliers, which helps reduce overhead and the use of paper in the ordering process. Although brand names and individual products are important to our business, we believe that competitive sources of supply are available for substantially all of the product categories we carry.
The Company operates distribution facilities in Eatontown, New Jersey and Mississauga, Canada.
Management Information Systems
The Company operates management information systems on Windows 2003 and Windows 2008 platforms that allow for centralized management of key functions, including inventory, accounts receivable, purchasing, sales and distribution. We are dependent on the accuracy and proper utilization of our information technology systems, including our telephone, web sites, e-mail and fax systems.
The management information systems allow the Company to monitor sales trends, provide real-time product availability and order status information, track direct marketing campaign performance and to make marketing event driven purchasing decisions. In addition to the main system, the Company has systems of networked personal computers, as well as microcomputer-based desktop publishing systems, which facilitate data sharing and provide an automated office environment.
The Company recognizes the need to continually upgrade its management information systems to most effectively manage its operations and customer database. In that regard, the Company anticipates that it will, from time to time, require software and hardware upgrades for its present management information systems.
Trademarks
The Company conducts its business under various trademarks and service marks including Lifeboat Distribution and TechXtend. The Company protects these trademarks and service marks and believes that they have significant value to us and are important factors in our marketing programs.
Employees
As of December 31, 2015 Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries had 130 full-time employees and 2 part-time employees. The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreements with its employees, has experienced no work stoppages and considers its relationships with its employees to be satisfactory.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
Investors should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below as well as the other information contained in this report. Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or those currently viewed by us to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Changes in the information technology industry and/or economic environment may reduce demand for the products and services we sell. Our results of operations are influenced by a variety of factors, including the condition of the IT industry, general economic conditions, shifts in demand for, or availability of, computer products and software and IT services and industry introductions of new products, upgrades or methods of distribution. The information technology products industry is characterized by abrupt changes in technology, rapid changes in customer preferences, short product life cycles and evolving industry standards. Net sales can be dependent on demand for specific product categories, and any change in demand for or supply of such products could have a material adverse effect on our net sales, and/or cause us to record write-downs of obsolete inventory, if we fail to react in a timely manner to such changes.
We rely on our suppliers for product availability, marketing funds, purchasing incentives and competitive products to sell. We acquire products for resale both directly from manufacturers and indirectly from distributors. The loss of a supplier could cause a disruption in the availability of products. Additionally, there is no assurance that as manufacturers continue to or increasingly sell directly to end users and through the distribution channel, that they will not limit or curtail the availability of their products to distributors/resellers like us. For example, resellers and publishers may attempt to increase the volume of software products distributed electronically through ESD (Electronic Software Distribution) technology, through subscription services, and through on-line shopping services, and correspondingly, decrease the volume of products sold through us. Our inability to obtain a sufficient quantity of products, or an allocation of products from a manufacturer in a way that favors one of our competitors, or competing distribution channels, relative to us, could cause us to be unable to fill clients’ orders in a timely manner, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. We also rely on our suppliers to provide funds for us to market their products, including through our catalogs and on-line marketing efforts, and to provide purchasing incentives to us. If any of the suppliers that have historically provided these benefits to us decides to reduce such benefits, our expenses would increase, adversely affecting our results of operations.
General economic weakness may reduce our revenues and profits. The ongoing effects of the general economic downturn, especially outside of the USA, continues to cause some of our current and potential customers to delay or reduce technology purchases, resulting in longer sales cycles, slower adoption of new technologies and increased price competition. We may, therefore, experience a greater decline in demand for the products we sell, resulting in increased competition and pressure to reduce the cost of operations. Any benefits from cost reductions may take longer to realize and may not fully mitigate the impact of the reduced demand. In addition, weak financial and credit markets heighten the risk of customer bankruptcies and create a corresponding delay in collecting receivables from those customers and may also affect our vendors’ ability to supply products, which could disrupt our operations. The realization of any or all of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We depend on having creditworthy customers to avoid an adverse impact to our operating results and financial condition. We require sufficient amounts of debt and equity capital to fund our transactions as we provide larger extended payment terms to certain of our customers. If the credit quality of our customer base materially decreases, or if we experience a material increase in our credit losses, we may find it difficult to continue to obtain the required capital for our business, and our operating results and financial condition may be harmed. In addition to the impact on our ability to attract capital, a material increase in our delinquency and default experience would itself have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Furthermore, if any of our customers to whom we provide larger extended payment terms go elsewhere for financing, such loss of financing revenue could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
The IT products and services industry is intensely competitive and actions of competitors, including manufacturers of products we sell, can negatively affect our business. Competition has been based primarily on price, product availability, speed of delivery, credit availability and quality and breadth of product lines and, increasingly, also is based on the ability to tailor specific solutions to client needs. We compete with manufacturers, including manufacturers of products we sell, as well as a large number and wide variety of marketers and resellers of IT products and services. In addition, manufacturers are increasing the volume of software products they distribute electronically directly to end-users and in the future will likely pay lower referral fees for sales of certain software licensing agreements sold by us. Generally, pricing is very aggressive in the industry, and we expect pricing pressures to continue. There can be no assurance that we will be able to negotiate prices as favorable as those negotiated by our competitors or that we will be able to offset the effects of price reductions with an increase in the number of clients, higher net sales, cost reductions, or greater sales of services, which service sales typically at higher gross margins, or otherwise. Price reductions by our competitors that we either cannot or choose not to match could result in an erosion of our market share and/or reduced sales or, to the extent we match such reductions, could result in reduced operating margins, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Disruptions in our information technology and voice and data networks could affect our ability to service our clients and cause us to incur additional expenses. We believe that our success to date has been, and future results of operations likely will be, dependent in large part upon our ability to provide prompt and efficient service to clients. Our ability to provide such services is dependent largely on the accuracy, quality and utilization of the information generated by our IT systems, which affect our ability to manage our sales, client service, distribution, inventories and accounting systems and the reliability of our voice and data networks.
Failure to adequately maintain the security of our electronic and other confidential information could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We are dependent upon automated information technology processes. Privacy, security, and compliance concerns have continued to increase as technology has evolved to facilitate commerce and as cross-border commerce
increases. As part of our normal business activities, we collect and store certain confidential information, including personal information of employees and information about partners and clients which may be entitled to protection under a number of regulatory regimes. In the course of normal and customary business practice, we may share some of this information with vendors who assist us with certain aspects of our business. Moreover, the success of our operations depends upon the secure transmission of confidential and personal data over public networks, including the use of cashless payments. Any failure on the part of us or our vendors to maintain the security of data we are required to protect, including via the penetration of our network security and the misappropriation of confidential and personal information, could result in business disruption, damage to our reputation, financial obligations to third parties, fines, penalties, regulatory proceedings and private litigation with potentially large costs, and also result in deterioration in our employees’, partners’ and clients’ confidence in us and other competitive disadvantages, and thus could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. During 2015 and 2014 we did not have any cybersecurity breaches.
We depend on certain key personnel. Our future success will be largely dependent on the efforts of key management personnel for strategic and operational guidance as well as relationships with our key vendors and customers. We also believe that our future success will be largely dependent on our continued ability to attract and retain highly qualified management, sales, service, finance and technical personnel. We cannot assure you that we will be able to attract and retain such personnel. Further, we make a significant investment in the training of our sales account executives. Our inability to retain such personnel or to train them either rapidly enough to meet our expanding needs or in an effective manner for quickly changing market conditions could cause a decrease in the overall quality and efficiency of our sales staff, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Risks related to our common stock. The exercise of outstanding options or any other issuance of shares by us may dilute your ownership of our Common Stock. Our Common Stock is thinly traded, which may be exacerbated by our repurchases of our Common Stock. As a result of the thin trading market for our stock, its market price may fluctuate significantly more than the stock market as a whole or of the stock prices of similar companies. Without a larger float, our common stock will be less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership, and, as a result, the trading prices for our Common Stock may be more volatile. Among other things, trading of a relatively small volume of our Common Stock may have a greater impact on the trading price of our stock than would be the case if our public float were larger.
Our common stock is listed on The NASDAQ Global Market, and we therefore are subject to continued listing requirements, including requirements with respect to the market value and number of publicly-held shares, number of stockholders, minimum bid price, number of market makers and either (i) stockholders’ equity or (ii) total market value of stock, total assets and total revenues. If we fail to satisfy one or more of the requirements, we may be delisted from The NASDAQ Global Market. If we do not qualify for listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market, and if we are not able to list our common stock on another exchange, our common stock could be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or on the “pink sheets”. As a result, we could face significant adverse consequences including, among others, a limited availability of market quotations for our securities and a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto. This discussion and analysis contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including those set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report.
Overview
The Company is organized into two reportable operating segments. The “Lifeboat Distribution” segment distributes technical software to corporate resellers, value added resellers (VARs), consultants and systems integrators worldwide. The “TechXtend” segment is a value-added reseller of software, hardware and services for corporations, government organizations and academic institutions in the USA and Canada.
We offer an extensive line of products from leading publishers of software and tools for virtualization/cloud computing, security, networking, storage and infrastructure management, application lifecycle management and other technically sophisticated domains as well as computer hardware. We market these products through direct sales, the Internet, our catalogs, direct mail programs, advertisements in trade magazines and e-mail promotions.
Forward-looking Statements
This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Statements in this report regarding future events or conditions, including but not limited to statements regarding industry prospects and the Company’s expected financial position, business and financing plans, are forward-looking statements.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. We strongly urge current and prospective investors to carefully consider the cautionary statements and risks contained in this report, particularly the risks described under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” above. Such risks include, but are not limited to, the continued acceptance of the Company’s distribution channel by vendors and customers, the timely availability and acceptance of new products, contribution of key vendor relationships and support programs, as well as factors that affect the software industry generally.
The Company operates in a rapidly changing business, and new risk factors emerge from time to time. Management cannot predict every risk factor, nor can it assess the impact, if any, of all such risk factors on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.
Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their dates. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The statements concerning future sales, future gross profit margin and future selling and administrative expenses are forward looking statements involving certain risks and uncertainties such as availability of products, product mix, pricing pressures, market conditions and other factors, which could result in a fluctuation of sales below recent experience.
Stock Volatility. The technology sector of the United States stock markets has experienced substantial volatility in recent periods. Numerous conditions which impact the technology sector or the stock market in general or the Company in particular, whether or not such events relate to or reflect upon the Company’s operating performance, could adversely affect the market price of the Company’s Common Stock. Furthermore, fluctuations in the Company’s operating results, announcements regarding litigation, the loss of a significant vendor or customer, increased competition, reduced vendor incentives and trade credit, higher postage and operating expenses, and other developments, could have a significant impact on the market price of the Company’s Common Stock.
Financial Overview
Net sales totaled $382.0 million in 2015 as compared to $340.8 million in 2014, representing a 12% increase. Gross profit increased by $1.8 million or 7% in 2015 as compared to 2014. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $1.6 million in 2015 as compared to 2014. Income from operations amounted to $8.5 million in 2015 from $8.3 million in 2014, representing an increase of $0.2 million or 3% as compared to 2014. The increase in income from operations resulted from an increase in gross profit offset by the increase in SG&A expenses. Our income before provision for income taxes increased by $0.1 million to $8.9 million in 2015 compared to $8.8 million in 2014. We reported net income of $5.8 million for both 2015 and 2014.
The Company’s sales, gross profit and results of operations have fluctuated and are expected to continue to fluctuate on a quarterly basis as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to: the condition of the software industry in general, shifts in demand for software products, pricing, level of extended payment terms sales transactions, industry shipments of new software products or upgrades, fluctuations in merchandise returns, adverse weather conditions that affect response, distribution or shipping, shifts in the timing of holidays and changes in the Company’s product offerings. The Company’s operating expenditures are based on sales forecasts. If sales do not meet expectations in any given quarter, operating results may be materially adversely affected.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth for the years indicated the percentage of net sales represented by selected items reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The year-to-year comparison of financial results is not necessarily indicative of future results:

Year Ended December 31, 2015 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2014
Net Sales
Net sales for 2015 increased 12%, or $41.2 million to $382.0 million in 2015 compared to $340.8 million in 2014. Total sales for our Lifeboat Distribution segment in 2015 were $339.7 million compared to $290.4 million in 2014, representing a 17% increase. Total sales for the TechXtend segment in 2015 amounted to $42.4 million, compared to $50.3 million in 2014, representing a 16% decrease.
The 17% increase in net sales from our Lifeboat Distribution segment was mainly a result of the addition of several key product lines and our ongoing strategy of strengthening of our account penetration. The 16% decrease in net sales in the TechXtend segment was primarily due to a decrease in both extended payment terms sales transactions and large transactions as compared to the same period in 2014.
Gross Profit
Gross Profit for 2015 was $26.6 million compared to $24.8 million in 2014, a 7% increase. Total gross profit for our Lifeboat Distribution segment in 2015 was $21.5 million compared to $19.1 million in 2014, representing a 12% increase. The increase in gross profit for the Lifeboat Distribution segment was due to increased sales volume. Total gross profit for our TechXtend segment in 2015 was $5.0 million compared to $5.6 million in 2014, representing a 10% decrease. The decrease in gross profit for the TechXtend segment was the result primarily of decreased software sales volume, including a decrease in large single sale transactions and extended payment terms sales transactions, offset in part by a higher gross margin in 2015 as compared to 2014.
Gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales) for 2015 was 7.0% compared to 7.3% in 2014. Gross profit margin for our Lifeboat Distribution segment was 6.3% in 2015 compared to 6.6% in and 2014. The decrease in gross profit margin for the Lifeboat Distribution segment was primarily caused by competitive pricing pressure, and product mix. Gross profit margin for our TechXtend segment in 2015 was 11.9% compared to 11.2% in 2014. The increase in gross profit dollars and the decrease in gross profit margins were primarily caused by the sales growth and product mix within our Lifeboat Distribution segment which carries lower margins than our TechXtend segment.
Vendor rebates and discounts for 2015 amounted to $2.0 million compared to $1.6 million for 2014. Vendor rebates are dependent on reaching certain targets set by our vendors. Vendors have been periodically substantially increasing their target revenues for rebate eligibility. The Company monitors gross profits and gross profit margins carefully. Price competition in our market continued in 2015. We anticipate that margins, as well as discounts and rebates, will continue to be affected by this current trend. To the extent that the Company finances larger transactions with extended payment terms, as anticipated, gross margins also will be negatively impacted
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses for 2015 were $18.1 million compared to $16.5 million in 2014, representing an increase of $1.6 million or 9%. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in employee and employee related expenses to support our growth in our Lifeboat Distribution segment (salaries, commissions, and benefits) in 2015 compared to 2014. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 4.7% in 2015 compared to 4.8% in 2014.
Direct selling costs (a component of SG&A) for 2015 were $10.0 million compared to $8.8 million in 2014. Total direct selling costs for our Lifeboat Distribution segment for 2015 were $7.7
million compared to $5.7 million in 2014, mainly due to the Company’s investment in a field sales and professional service teams as part of our growth strategy for the Lifeboat Distribution segment. Total direct selling costs for our TechXtend segment for 2015 were $2.3 million compared to $3.1 million in 2014.
The Company expects that its SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, may vary depending on changes in sales volume, as well as the levels of continuing investments in key growth initiatives. We plan to continue to expand our investment in information technology and marketing, while monitoring our sales and general and administrative expenses closely.
Income Taxes
For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $3.0 million which consists of a provision of $2.7 million for U.S. federal income taxes, as well as a $0.1 million provision for state taxes, and a provision for foreign taxes of $0.2 million.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company had a U.S. deferred tax asset of approximately $0.5 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $3.0 million which consists of a provision of $2.7 million for U.S. federal income taxes, as well as a $0.1 million provision for state taxes, and a provision for foreign taxes of $0.2 million.
As of December 31, 2014, the Company had a U.S. deferred tax asset of approximately $0.4 million.
Year Ended December 31, 2014 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2013
Net Sales
Net sales for 2014 increased 13%, or $40.4 million to $340.8 million in 2014 compared to $300.4 million in 2014. Total sales for our Lifeboat Distribution segment in 2014 were $290.4 million compared to $237.7 million in 2013, representing a 22% increase. Total sales for the TechXtend segment in 2014 amounted to $50.3 million, compared to $62.8 million in 2013, representing a 20% decrease.
The 22% increase in net sales from our Lifeboat Distribution segment was mainly a result of our continued focus on the expanding virtual infrastructure-centric business, the addition of several key product lines, and the strengthening of our account penetration. The 20% decrease in net sales in the TechXtend segment was primarily due to a decrease in extended payment terms sales transactions in the fourth quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.
Gross Profit
Gross Profit for 2014 was $24.8 million compared to $24.4 million in 2013, a 2% increase. Total gross profit for our Lifeboat Distribution segment in 2014 was $19.1 million compared to $17.4 million in 2013, representing a 10% increase. The increase in gross profit for the Lifeboat Distribution segment was due to increased sales volume. Total gross profit for our TechXtend segment in 2014 was $5.6 million compared to $6.9 million in 2013, representing a 19% decrease. The decrease in gross profit for the TechXtend segment was the result primarily of decreased software sales volume, including a decrease in large single sale transactions and extended payment terms sales transactions, offset in part by a higher gross margin in 2014 as compared to 2013.
Gross profit margin (gross profit as a percentage of net sales) for 2014 was 7.3% compared to 8.1% in 2013. Gross profit margin for our Lifeboat Distribution segment was 6.6% in 2014 compared to
7.3% in and 2013. The decrease in gross profit margin for the Lifeboat Distribution segment was primarily caused by competitive pricing pressure, reduced vendor rebates and discounts, and product mix. Gross profit margin for our TechXtend segment in 2014 was 11.2% compared to 11.0% in 2013. The increase in gross profit dollars and the decrease in gross profit margins were primarily caused by the sales growth and product mix within our Lifeboat Distribution segment which carries lower margins than our TechXtend segment.
Vendor rebates and discounts for 2014 amounted to $1.6 million compared to $1.7 million for 2013. Vendor rebates are dependent on reaching certain targets set by our vendors. Vendors have been periodically substantially increasing their target revenues for rebate eligibility. The Company monitors gross profits and gross profit margins carefully. Price competition in our market continued to intensify in 2014, with competitors lowering their prices significantly and the Company continues to respond immediately. We anticipate that margins, as well as discounts and rebates, will continue to be affected by this current trend. To the extent that the Company finances larger transactions with extended payment terms, as anticipated, gross margins also will be negatively impacted.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Total selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for 2014 were $16.5 million compared to $15.5 million in 2013, representing an increase of $1.0 million or 6.5%. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in salaries, commissions and bonus expense for our Lifeboat Distribution segment due to our growth in this segment. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 4.8% in 2014 compared to 5.2% in 2013.
Direct selling costs (a component of SG&A) for 2014 were $8.8 million compared to $8.0 million in 2013. Total direct selling costs for our Lifeboat Distribution segment for 2014 were $5.7 million compared to $4.7 million in 2013, mainly due to an increase in salaries on increased headcount to support growth, and commissions compared to the prior year on higher segment gross profit. Total direct selling costs for our TechXtend segment for 2014 were $3.1 million compared to $3.3 million in 2013. The decrease in the TechXtend segment was due to lower commission and bonus expense resulting from lower segment gross profit.
The Company expects that its SG&A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, may vary depending on changes in sales volume, as well as the levels of continuing investments in key growth initiatives. We plan to continue to expand our investment in information technology and marketing, while monitoring our sales and general and administrative expenses closely.
Income Taxes
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $3.0 million which consists of a provision of $2.7 million for U.S. federal income taxes, as well as a $0.1 million provision for state taxes, and a provision for foreign taxes of $0.2 million.
The current year effective tax rate was 34.2% compared to 32.1% in 2013. The current year effective tax rates are higher primarily due to the fact that the prior year included an adjustment to reflect a change in state apportionment rules.
As of December 31, 2014, the Company had a U.S. deferred tax asset of approximately $0.4 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $3.0 million which consists of a provision of $2.9 million for U.S. federal income taxes, as well as a $0.1 million provision for foreign taxes, and a deferred tax expense of $0.1 million
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had a U.S. deferred tax asset of approximately $0.4
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance for revenue recognition for contracts, superseding the previous revenue recognition requirements, along with most existing industry-specific guidance. The guidance requires an entity to review contracts in five steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price, and 5) recognize revenue. The new standard will result in enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of the new standard by one year. Along with the deferral of the effective date, ASU No. 2015-14 allows early application as of the original effective date. Entities are allowed to transition to the new standard by either recasting prior periods or recognizing the cumulative effect as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The standard and related amendments will be effective for the Company for its annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the newly issued guidance, including which transition approach will be applied and the estimated impact it will have on our consolidated financial statements
In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330)”, (“ASU 2015-11”). Topic 330, Inventory, currently requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market, with market value represented by replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less a normal profit margin. The amendments in ASU 2015-11 require an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of this new accounting pronouncement, will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-17 (“ASU 2015-17”) to simplify the presentation of deferred taxes. This amendment requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowances, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. Adoption of this standard is required for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash and cash equivalents increased by $0.7 million to $23.8 million at December 31, 2015 from $23.1 million at December 31, 2014. Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $8.2 million, net cash used in investing activities amounted to $0.2 million, and net cash used in financing activities amounted to $7.1 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities in 2015 was $8.2 million. In 2015, cash was mainly provided by $7.3 million from net income including non-cash charges, a $1.1 million decrease in accounts receivable, and a $0.3 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses prepaid, offset in part by an increase in inventory of $0.5 million.
In 2015, net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million. This resulted primarily from $0.2 million for the purchase of equipment and leasehold improvements.
Net cash used in financing activities in 2015 of $7.1 million consisted of $3.2 million of dividend payments on our Common Stock and $4.6 million for the purchases of treasury shares of our Common
Stock offset by the tax benefit from share based compensation of $0.2 million and the exercise of stock options of $0.6 million.
In 2014 the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of 500,000 shares of our Common Stock. In 2008, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of 500,000 shares of our Common Stock. In 2002, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of 1,490,000 shares of our Common Stock. In October 1999, the Company was authorized by the Board of Directors to buy back 521,013 shares of our Common Stock in both open market and private transactions, as conditions warrant. A total of 2,553,051 shares of the Company’s stock had been bought back as of December 31, 2015 leaving a balance of 457,962 shares of Common Stock that the Company is authorized to buy back in the future.
On August 14, 2015, the Board of Directors approved, and on August 18, 2015, the Company entered into a written purchase plan intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, as amended (the “Plan”) . Purchases involving shares of the Company’s Common Stock under the Plan commenced August 18, 2015, and the Plan is intended to be in effect until February 18, 2016. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company’s broker shall effect purchases of up to an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Common Stock.
We intend to hold the repurchased shares in treasury for general corporate purposes, including issuances under various stock plans. As of December 31, 2015, we held 583,688 shares of our Common Stock in treasury at an average cost of $17.64 per share. As of December 31, 2014, we held 393,744 shares of our Common Stock in treasury at an average cost of $15.66 per share.
The Company’s current and anticipated use of its cash and cash equivalents is, and will continue to be, to fund working capital, operational expenditures, the stock repurchase program and dividends, if any, declared by the Board of Directors.
On January 4, 2013, the Company entered into a $10,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Citibank, N.A. pursuant to a Business Loan Agreement, Promissory Note, Commercial Security Agreements and Commercial Pledge Agreement. The Credit Facility, which will be used for business and working capital purposes, including financing of larger extended payment terms sales transactions which may become a more significant portion of the Company’s net sales. On December 18, 2015, the Company signed an extension to this agreement which extended the maturity date to January 31, 2019 with all other terms remaining the same. (see Note 5 Credit Facility in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements). As of December 31, 2015 there were no borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $23.8 million as of December 31, 2015, of which $2.3 million was held outside the United States. Our current intention is to reinvest the majority of our foreign earnings in foreign operations. Our current plans do not anticipate a need to repatriate cash to fund our domestic operations. In the event cash from foreign operations is needed to fund operations in the U.S., we would be subject to additional income taxes in the U.S. reduced by any foreign taxes paid on these earnings.

(1) Operating leases relate primarily to the leases of the space used for our operations in Shrewsbury and Eatontown, New Jersey, Mesa, Arizona, Mississauga, Canada and Amsterdam, Netherlands. The commitments for operating leases include the minimum rent payments.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company is not committed by lines of credit or standby letters of credit, and has no standby repurchase obligations or other commercial commitments (see Note 5 Credit Facility in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements).
Foreign Exchange
The Company’s Canadian business is subject to changes in demand or pricing resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates or other factors. We are subject to fluctuations primarily in the Canadian Dollar-to-U.S. Dollar exchange rate.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303 (a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software and hardware for microcomputers, servers and networks on a gross revenue recognition basis upon shipment or upon electronic delivery of the product.
On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, stock-based compensation, contingencies and litigation.
The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The Company believes the following critical accounting policies used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements affect its more significant judgments and estimates.
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon
assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-offs may be required.
The Company has considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. In the event the Company were to determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.
Under the fair value recognition provision, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. We make certain assumptions in order to value and expense our various share-based payment awards. In connection with valuing stock options, we use the Black-Scholes model, which requires us to estimate certain subjective assumptions. The key assumptions we make are: the expected volatility of our stock; the expected term of the award; and the expected forfeiture rate. In connection with our restricted stock programs we make assumptions principally related to the forfeiture rate. We review our valuation assumptions periodically and, as a result, we may change our valuation assumptions used to value stock based awards granted in future periods. Such changes may lead to a significant change in the expense we recognize in connection with share-based payments.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
In addition to its activities in the USA, 6% of the Company’s 2015 sales were generated in Canada. We are subject to general risks attendant to the conduct of business in Canada, including economic uncertainties and foreign government regulations. In addition, the Company’s Canadian business is subject to changes in demand or pricing resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates or other factors.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company maintains its cash accounts primarily in financial institutions with global operations. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
See Index to Consolidated Financial Statements at Item 15(a).
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures”, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Company’s President, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer)
and Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer (principal financial officer). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it 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 is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records in reasonable detail that accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and disposition of assets; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of the Company, are made in accordance of with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that, owing to changes in conditions, controls may become inadequate, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ( 2013 Framework). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2015. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our independent registered public accounting firm, EisnerAmper LLP, has audited our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. Their attestation report on the audit of our internal control over financial reporting is included below.

Index to Consolidated Financial Statements and Schedule
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015. The financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements referred to above, we also audited Schedule II — Valuation and Qualifying Accounts, for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015. In our opinion, this financial schedule, when considered in relation to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information stated therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Wayside Technology Group Inc. and Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated February 22, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
We have audited Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015, and our report dated February 22, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Note 1. Description of Business
Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”), was incorporated in Delaware in 1982. The Company distributes software developed by others through resellers indirectly to customers worldwide. We also resell computer software and hardware developed by others and provide technical services directly to customers in the United States of America (“USA”) and Canada. We also operate a sales branch in Europe to serve our customers in this region of the world. We offer an extensive line of products from leading publishers of software and tools for virtualization/cloud computing, security, networking, storage & infrastructure management, application lifecycle management and other technically sophisticated domains as well as computer hardware.
The Company is organized into two reportable operating segments. The “Lifeboat Distribution” segment distributes technical software to corporate resellers, value added resellers (VARs), consultants and systems integrators worldwide. The “TechXtend” segment is a value-added reseller of software, hardware and services for corporations, government organizations and academic institutions in the USA and Canada.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Operations
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) requires management to make extensive use of certain estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The significant areas of estimation include but are not limited to accounting for allowance for doubtful accounts, sales returns, inventory obsolescence, income taxes, depreciation, contingencies and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Net Income Per Common Share
The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board “FASB”ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities including unexercised stock option grants and nonvested shares of restricted stock.

Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable principally represents amounts collectible from our customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers but generally does not require collateral to support any outstanding obligation.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable
We provide allowances for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We take into consideration the overall quality and aging of the receivable portfolio along with specifically identified customer risks. If actual customer payment performance were to deteriorate to an extent not expected, additional allowances may be required. We historically have a low write-off rate, especially on extended payment terms sales transactions. Write-offs on extended payment terms sales transactions as a percentage of net sales amounted to 0.02%, 0.0% and 0.0%, for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have been translated at the end of the reporting period exchange rates, and related revenues and expenses have been translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the period. Cumulative translation adjustments have been classified within accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity in accordance FASB ASC Topic No. 220, “Comprehensive Income”.
Wayside Technology Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations in credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are deposited primarily in banking institutions with global operations. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, because of the relative short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s accounts receivable long-term is discounted to their present value at prevailing market rates so the balances approximate fair value.
Inventory
Inventory, consisting primarily of finished products held for resale, is stated at the lower of cost (weighted average) or market.
Equipment and Leasehold Improvements
Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Equipment depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the related lease terms, whichever is shorter.
Accounts receivable-long-term
Accounts receivable—long-term result from product sales with extended payment terms that are discounted to their present values at the prevailing market rates. In subsequent periods, the accounts receivable are increased to the amounts due and payable by the customers through the accretion of interest income on the unpaid accounts receivable due in future years. The amounts under these long-term accounts receivable due within one year are reclassified to the current portion of accounts receivable.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income for the period, the impact of unrealized foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale marketable securities. The foreign currency translation adjustments are not currently adjusted for income taxes as they relate to permanent investments in international subsidiaries.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue on product (software and hardware) and maintenance agreement sales are recognized once four criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) the price is fixed and determinable, (3) delivery (software and hardware) or fulfillment (maintenance) has occurred, and (4) there is reasonable assurance of collection of the sales proceeds. Revenues from the sales of hardware products, software products and licenses and maintenance agreements are recognized on a gross basis with the selling price to the customer recorded as sales and the acquisition cost of the product recorded as cost of sales.
Product delivery to customers occur in a variety of ways, including (i) as physical product shipped from the Company’s warehouse, (ii) via drop-shipment by the vendor, or (iii) via electronic delivery for software licenses. The Company leverages drop-ship arrangements with many of its vendors and suppliers to deliver products to customers without having to physically hold the inventory at its warehouse, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing costs. The Company recognizes revenue for drop-ship arrangements on a gross basis. Furthermore, in such drop-ship arrangements, the Company negotiates price with the customer, pays the supplier directly for the product shipped and bears credit risk of collecting payment from its customers. The Company serves as the principal with the customer and, therefore, recognizes the sale and cost of sale of the product upon receiving notification from the supplier that the product has shipped. Maintenance agreements allow customers to obtain technical support directly from the software publisher and to upgrade, at no additional cost, to the latest technology if new applications are introduced by the software publisher during the period that the maintenance agreement is in effect.
Sales are recorded net of discounts, rebates, and returns. Vendor rebates and price protection are recorded when earned as a reduction to cost of sales or merchandise inventory, as applicable.
Cooperative reimbursements from vendors, which are earned and available, are recorded in the period the related advertising expenditure is incurred. Cooperative reimbursements are recorded as a reduction of cost of sales in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605-50 “Accounting by a Customer (including reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor.” Provisions for returns are estimated based on historical sales returns and credit memo analysis which are adjusted to actual on a periodic basis.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has stockholder-approved stock incentive plans for employees and directors. Stock- based compensation is recognized based on the grant date fair value and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. This method also requires a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset if, based on the weighted available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense when assessed. The Company accounts for uncertainties in accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”. This standard clarified the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. The standard prescribes criteria for recognition and measurement of tax positions. It also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, and disclosures related to income taxes associated with uncertain tax positions.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance for revenue recognition for contracts, superseding the previous revenue recognition requirements, along with most existing industry-specific guidance. The guidance requires an entity to review contracts in five steps: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price, and 5) recognize revenue. The new standard will result in enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of the new standard by one year. Along with the deferral of the effective date, ASU No. 2015-14 allows early application as of the original effective date. Entities are allowed to transition to the new standard by either recasting prior periods or recognizing the cumulative effect as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The standard and related amendments will be effective for the Company for its annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the newly issued guidance, including which transition approach will be applied and the estimated impact it will have on our consolidated financial statements
In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330)”, (“ASU 2015-11”). Topic 330, Inventory, currently requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market, with market value represented by replacement cost, net realizable value or net realizable value less a normal profit margin. The amendments in ASU 2015-11 require an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of this new accounting pronouncement, will have a significant impact on our financial on our financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-17 (“ASU 2015-17”) to simplify the presentation of deferred taxes. This amendment requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowances, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. Adoption of this standard is required for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-17 will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The Company receives a tax deduction from the income realized by employees on the exercise of certain non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards for which the tax effect of the difference between the book and tax deduction is recognized as a component of stockholders’ equity.
The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The Company has identified its federal consolidated tax return and its state tax return in New Jersey and its Canadian tax return as major tax jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2015, the Company’s 2012 through 2014 Federal tax returns remain open for examination, as the Company recently concluded an Internal Revenue Service examination for the 2011 and 2012 tax years. This examination resulted in no change to the previously filed Federal corporate tax returns. The Company’s New Jersey and Canadian tax returns are open for examination for the years 2012 through 2014. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as interest expense and penalties as operating expenses. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions it takes and expects to take on its tax returns, and that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter

5. Credit Facility
On January 4, 2013, the Company entered into a $10,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Citibank, N.A. (“Citibank”) pursuant to a Business Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”), Promissory Note (the “Note”), Commercial Security Agreements (the “Security Agreements”) and Commercial Pledge Agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”). The Credit Facility will be used for business and working capital purposes, including financing of larger extended payment terms sales transactions. On December 18, 2015, the Company signed an extension to this agreement which extended the maturity date to January 31 2019 with all other terms remaining the same. The Credit Facility matures on January 31, 2019, at which time the Company must pay this loan in one payment of any outstanding principal plus all accrued unpaid interest. In addition, the Company will pay regular monthly payments of all accrued unpaid interest. The interest rate for any borrowings under the Credit Facility is subject to change from time to time based on the changes in an independent index which is the LIBOR Rate (the “Index”). If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Citibank may designate a substitute index after notifying the Company. Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Note will be calculated using a rate of 1.500 percentage points over the Index. The Credit Facility is secured by the assets of the Company.
Among other affirmative covenants set forth in the Loan Agreement, the Company must maintain (i) a ratio of Total Liabilities to Tangible Net Worth (each as defined in the Loan Agreement) of not greater than 2.50 to 1.00, to be tested quarterly and (ii) a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of 2.00 to 1.00. Additionally, the Loan Agreement contains negative covenants related to, among other items, prohibitions against the creation of certain liens, engaging in any business activities substantially different than those currently engaged in by the Company, and paying dividends on the Company’s stock other than (i) dividends payable in its stock and (ii) cash dividends in amounts and frequency consistent with past practice, without first securing the written consent of Citibank. The Company is in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2015.
At December 31, 2015, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Company had interest expense of $0, $0 and $10 thousand related to the Credit Facility for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
6. Stockholders’ Equity and Stock Based Compensation
On April 21, 1995, the Board of Directors adopted the Company’s 1995 Employee Stock Plan (“1995 Plan”). The 1995 Plan, as amended on May 7, 1998, provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 1,137,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company. The 1995 Plan requires that each option shall expire on the date specified by the Compensation Committee, but not more than ten years from its date of grant in the case of Incentive Stock Options (“ISO’s”) and Non-Qualified Options. Options granted under the plan are exercisable at an exercise price equal to but not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the grant date. ISO’s shall either be

The 1995 Director Plan requires that options granted thereunder will expire ten years from the date of grant.

As of December 31, 2015, there was approximately $2.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years.

FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires that public companies report profits and losses and certain other information on their “reportable operating segments” in their annual and interim financial statements. The internal organization used by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for reportable operating segments. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer.
The Company is organized into two reportable operating segments. The “Lifeboat Distribution” segment distributes technical software to corporate resellers, value added resellers (VARs), consultants and systems integrators worldwide. The “TechXtend” segment is a value-added reseller of software, hardware and services for corporations, government organizations and academic institutions in the USA and Canada.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
As permitted by FASB ASC Topic 280, the Company has utilized the aggregation criteria in combining its operations in Canada with the domestic segments as they provide the same products and services to similar clients and are considered together when the CODM decides how to allocate resources.
Segment income is based on segment revenue less the respective segment’s cost of revenues as well as segment direct costs (including such items as payroll costs and payroll related costs, such as profit sharing, incentive awards and insurance) and excluding general and administrative expenses not attributed to a business unit. The Company only identifies accounts receivable and inventory by segment as shown below as “Selected Assets” by segment; it does not allocate its other assets, including capital expenditures by segment.
