CRIMSON WINE GROUP, LTD.
Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.
Background and Basis of Presentation

Background

Crimson Wine Group, Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Crimson” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation that has been conducting business since 1991.  Crimson is in the business of producing and selling ultra-premium plus wines (i.e., wines that retail for over $15 per 750ml bottle).  Crimson is headquartered in Napa, California and through its subsidiaries owns six wineries:  Pine Ridge Vineyards, Archery Summit, Chamisal Vineyards,  Seghesio Family Vineyards, Double Canyon and Seven Hills Winery and Vineyard.

Financial Statement Preparation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, which reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items or items discussed herein) that management believes necessary to fairly state results of interim operations, should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (including the Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements) included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC on Form 10-K (the “2016 Report”).  Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results of operations.  The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 was extracted from the audited annual financial statements and does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements.  

Significant Accounting Policies

Except as described below under Recent Accounting Pronouncements, there were no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2017.  See Note 3 to the 2016 Report for a description of the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) subsequent to the filing of the 2016 Report that could have a material effect on Crimson’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table also provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2017:

Standards that were adopted
ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)
 
Amends the guidance in Topic 230 on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The primary purpose of the ASU is to reduce the diversity in practice that has resulted from the lack of consistent principles on this topic.

The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330)
 
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.

Acquisition of Seven Hills Winery

On January 27, 2016, one of Crimson’s wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a purchase agreement pursuant to which Crimson’s subsidiary acquired, or has rights in, substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities with respect to the Seven Hills Winery located in Walla Walla, Washington. The acquisition provides a strategic opportunity for Crimson to expand its portfolio.
 
The acquisition-date fair value of total consideration for the Seven Hills Winery acquisition was $7.9 million, consisting of $7.3 million in cash, which included  a working capital adjustment of $0.3 million, and $0.6 million of non-cash contingent consideration. The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Company to pay up to $0.8 million in future earn-out payments based on certain achievements of the acquired business over the 38 months following the closing of the acquisition. Total acquisition related costs were $0.3 million, which were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2016. Pro forma financial statements are not presented as they are not material to the Company’s overall condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 the Company recognized $0.1 million of acquisition related costs that were expensed under the line item entitled ‘General and administrative.’ The Company’s results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 include the results of Seven Hills Winery for the period since the date of acquisition. Revenue and net loss of Seven Hills Winery recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. 

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands):

Accounts payable and accruals

Goodwill

$

Goodwill recognized of $0.2 million was primarily attributable to synergies expected from combining the Company’s operations with Seven Hills Winery’s operations, as well as the assembled workforce. All of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. As described in Note 11 “Business Segment Information,” based on the nature of the Company’s business, revenue generating assets are utilized across segments. Therefore, goodwill recognized has not been allocated to any particular segment of the Company.

Adjustments to record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value include the recognition of $0.6 million of intangible assets as follows (in thousands, except estimated life information):

The methodology utilized to fair value the assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to Seven Hills Winery was as follows:

Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable

The carrying values for current assets and current liabilities were deemed to approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The Company has subsequently collected on and paid out all of these balances.

Inventory

Inventory fair values were estimated by significant component. In-process wine was valued at the estimated selling prices of finished goods less the sum of costs to complete, costs of disposal and reasonable profit allowances for completing and selling

6



efforts based on profits for similar finished goods. Cased wine was valued at estimated selling price less the sum of costs of disposal and reasonable profit allowances for the selling efforts. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment acquired consisted primarily of a building, land and machinery and equipment used in manufacturing operations. Property and equipment fair values were estimated at their highest and best use value using either the cost or market approach, when appropriate based on available data, and further corroborated with an income approach when appropriate. These fair value measurements represent Level 2 and Level 3 measurements.

Intangible Assets

The identifiable intangible assets acquired consisted of brand and distributor relationships. The relief from royalty valuation method, a form of the income approach, was used to estimate the fair value of the brand. The multi-period excess earnings method, a form of the income approach, was used to estimate the fair value of the distributor relationships. These fair value measurements represent Level 3 measurements.

Contingent Consideration

The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration at January 27, 2016 (the acquisition date) to be $0.6 million, using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. This fair value measurement represents a Level 3 measurement. Changes to the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration at each reporting period are recorded in the Company’s consolidated income statement under the line item titled ‘General and administrative’ as an operating expense.  The fair value of the contingent consideration as of March 31, 2017 was $0.3 million and during the three months ended March 31, 2017 the amounts recognized in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated income statements related to the changes in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration were insignificant.

Gross unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities were less than $0.1 million as of March 31, 2017, and the Company believes the gross unrealized losses are temporary as it does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before the recovery of their amortized cost basis.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, other than the assets and liabilities related to the Seven Hills Winery acquisition (see Note 2), the Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. For cash and cash equivalents, the carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their fair values. For short-term debt, the carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their fair values. As of March 31, 2017 the Company has estimated the fair

8



value of its outstanding debt to be approximately $14.4 million compared to its carrying value of $15.2 million, based upon discounted cash flows with Level 3 inputs, such as the terms that management believes would currently be available to the Company for similar issues of debt, taking into account the current credit risk of the Company and other factors. 

The Company does not invest in any derivatives or engage in any hedging activities.

Debt
Revolving Credit Facility

In March 2013, Crimson and its subsidiaries entered into a $60.0 million revolving credit facility with American AgCredit, FLCA, as agent for the lenders identified in the revolving credit facility, comprised of a revolving loan facility and a term revolving loan facility, which together are secured by substantially all of Crimson’s assets.  The revolving credit facility is for up to $10.0 million of availability in the aggregate for a five year term, and the term revolving credit facility is for up to $50.0 million in the aggregate for a fifteen year term.  All obligations of Crimson under the revolving credit facility are collateralized by certain real property, including vineyards and certain winery facilities of Crimson, accounts receivable, inventory and intangible assets.  In addition to unused line fees ranging from 0.15% to 0.25%, rates for the borrowings are priced based on a performance grid tied to certain financial ratios and the London Interbank Offered Rate. The revolving credit facility can be used to fund acquisitions, capital projects and other general corporate purposes.  Covenants include the maintenance of specified debt and equity ratios, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, limitations on dividends and other distributions to shareholders and restrictions on certain mergers, consolidations and sales of assets.  No amounts have been borrowed under the revolving credit facility to date. 

Term Loan

On November 10, 2015, Pine Ridge Winery, LLC (“Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crimson, entered into a senior secured term loan agreement (the “term loan”) with American AgCredit, FLCA (“Lender”) for an aggregate principal amount of $16.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the term loan will bear a fixed interest rate of 5.24% per annum.

The term loan will mature on October 1, 2040 (the “Maturity Date”). On the first day of each January, April, July and October, commencing January 1, 2016, a principal payment in the amount of $160,000 and an interest payment equal to the amount of all interest accrued through the previous day shall be made. A final payment of all unpaid principal, interest and any other charges with respect to the term loan shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $0.1 million related to this term loan. These costs are recorded as a reduction from short-term or long-term debt based on the timeframe in which the fees will be expensed, and as such amounts to be expensed within 12-months shall be classified against short-term debt. The costs are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the loan. 

Borrower’s obligations under the term loan are guaranteed by the Company. All obligations of Borrower under the term loan are collateralized by certain real property of the Company. Borrower’s covenants include the maintenance of a specified debt service coverage ratio and certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness; limitations on distributions to shareholders; and restrictions on certain investments, sale of assets and merging or consolidating with other persons.

The full $16.0 million was drawn at closing and the term loan can be used to fund acquisitions, capital projects and other general corporate purposes. As of March 31, 2017, $15.2 million in principal was outstanding, and unamortized loan fees were $0.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 less than $0.1 million of interest expense was capitalized.

The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of March 31, 2017.

9.
Stockholders’ Equity
In March 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a share repurchase program (the “2014 Repurchase Program”) that provides for the repurchase of up to $2.0 million of outstanding common stock. Under the 2014 Repurchase Program, any repurchased shares were constructively retired, and on February 29, 2016 the 2014 Repurchase Program was completed. Under the total 2014 Repurchase Program the Company repurchased 228,522 shares at an original repurchase cost of $2.0 million.

In March 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a second share repurchase program (the “2016 Repurchase Program”) that provides for the repurchase of up to $2.0 million of outstanding common stock. Under the 2016 Repurchase Program, any repurchased shares were constructively retired, and on November 14, 2016 the 2016 Repurchase Program was completed. Under the total 2016 Repurchase Program the Company repurchased 232,461 shares at an original repurchase price of $2.0 million.

In November 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a third share repurchase program (the “2017 Repurchase Program”) that provides for the repurchase of up to $2.0 million of outstanding common stock. Under the 2017 Repurchase

10



Program, any repurchased shares will be constructively retired. No shares have been repurchased under the 2017 Repurchase Program as of March 31, 2017.

10.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were 38.4% and 37.7%, respectively. The consolidated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was determined based upon estimates of the Company’s consolidated effective income tax rates for the years ending December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The difference between the consolidated effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate in the current quarter and in the same prior year quarter was primarily attributable to state taxes and the effect of certain permanent differences, which primarily consisted of meals and entertainment and the domestic production activity deduction.

The Company does not have any amounts in its condensed consolidated balance sheet for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016

11.
Business Segment Information

The Company has identified two operating segments which are reportable segments for financial statement reporting purposes, Wholesale and Direct to Consumer net sales, based upon their different distribution channels, margins and selling strategies. Wholesale net sales include all sales through a third party where prices are given at a wholesale rate, whereas Direct to Consumer net sales include retail sales in the tasting room, remote sites and on-site events, wine club net sales and other sales made directly to the consumer without the use of an intermediary.

The two segments reflect how the Company’s operations are evaluated by senior management and the structure of its internal financial reporting. The Company evaluates performance based on the gross profit of the respective business segments. Selling expenses that can be directly attributable to the segment are allocated accordingly. However, centralized selling expenses and general and administrative expenses are not allocated between operating segments. Therefore, net income information for the respective segments is not available. Based on the nature of the Company’s business, revenue generating assets are utilized across segments. Therefore, discrete financial information related to segment assets and other balance sheet data is not available and that information continues to be aggregated.

The following table outlines the net sales, cost of sales, gross profit, directly attributable selling expenses and operating income for the Company’s reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, and also includes a reconciliation of consolidated income (loss) from operations. Other/Non-allocable net sales and gross profit include bulk wine and grape sales, event fees and retail sales. Other/Non-allocable expenses include centralized corporate expenses not specific to an identified reporting segment.  Sales figures are net of related excise taxes.

Statements included in this Report may contain forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information” below. The following should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) and the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC (the “2016 Report”).  

Quantities or results referred to as “current quarter” and “current three-month period” refer to the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Cautionary Statement for Forward-Looking Information

This MD&A and other parts of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, that include results of Crimson Wine Group, Ltd. and all its subsidiaries further collectively known as “we”, “Crimson”, “our”, “us”, or “the Company”, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the general instruction for quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, prospects, plans, opportunities, and objectives constitute “forward-looking statements.” The words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “potential,” or “continue” and similar types of expressions identify such statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements are based upon information that is currently available to us and our management’s current expectations speak only as of the date hereof and are subject to risks and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation, except as required by federal securities laws, or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change or expectations with regard thereto or to reflect any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such forward-looking statements are based, in whole or in part. Our actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from any results projected, forecasted, estimated or budgeted or that may materially and adversely affect our actual results include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2016 Report. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in the 2016 Report and in other documents that the Company files from time to time with the SEC.

Overview of Business

The Company generates revenues from sales of wine to wholesalers and direct to consumers, sales of bulk wine and grapes, special event fees, tasting fees and retail sales. 
Our wines are primarily sold to wholesale distributors, who then sell to retailers and restaurants. As permitted under federal and local regulations, we have also been placing increased emphasis on generating revenue from direct sales to consumers which occur through wine clubs, at the wineries’ tasting rooms and through the internet and direct outreach to customers. Direct sales to consumers are more profitable for the Company as we are able to sell our products at a price closer to retail prices rather than the wholesale price sold to distributors. From time to time, we may sell grapes or bulk wine, because the wine does not meet the quality standards for the Company’s products, market conditions have changed resulting in reduced demand for certain products, or because the Company may have produced more of a particular varietal than it can use. When these sales occur, they may result in a loss.
Cost of sales includes grape and bulk wine costs, whether purchased or produced from the Company’s controlled vineyards, crush costs, winemaking and processing costs, bottling, packaging, warehousing and shipping and handling costs. For the Company controlled vineyard produced grapes, grape costs include annual farming labor costs, harvest costs and depreciation of vineyard assets. For wines that age longer than one year, winemaking and processing costs continue to be incurred and capitalized to the cost of wine, which can range from 3 to 36 months. Reductions to the carrying value of inventories are also included in costs of sales.
At March 31, 2017, wine inventory includes approximately 0.8 million cases of bottled and bulk wine in various stages of the aging process.  Cased wine is expected to be sold over the next 12 to 36 months and generally before the release date of the next vintage.


12



Seasonality

As discussed in the 2016 Report, the wine industry in general historically experiences seasonal fluctuations in revenues and net income. The Company typically has lower sales and net income during the first quarter and higher sales and net income during the fourth quarter due to seasonal holiday buying as well as wine club shipment timing.  We anticipate similar trends in the future.

(5)%

Wholesale net sales decreased $0.9 million, or 9%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily driven by domestic volume declines of 12% and increased price support, partially offset by price increases for certain products and export volume growth of 15%. The decline in domestic volume was primarily driven by higher than usual first quarter of 2016 sales of certain products in advance of announced price increases and the close-out of certain lower-priced wines.

Direct to consumer net sales increased $0.4 million, or 9%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016.  The increase was primarily driven by an increase in wine club net sales of $0.5 million and an increase in combined e-commerce, special events and freight net sales of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in tasting room net sales of $0.2 million. The increase in wine club net sales was primarily driven by price increases and a shift toward higher value varietals, while the decrease in tasting room net sales was primarily driven by less foot traffic mostly due to closures from historic weather related events.

Other net sales include bulk wine and grape sales, event fees and retail sales which had an overall decrease of $0.2 million, or 20%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily driven by a decline in event fee revenue.

Wholesale gross profit decreased $0.2 million, or 4%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016. Gross margin percentage, which is defined as gross profit as a percentage of net sales, increased approximately 267 basis points in the current quarter driven primarily by price increases and improved mix, as the first quarter of 2016 included the close-out of certain lower priced and lower margin wines.

Direct to consumer gross profit increased $0.3 million, or 10%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016. Gross margin percentage increased approximately 70 basis points in the current period driven primarily by price increases.

Other gross profit includes bulk wine and grape sales, event fees and non-wine retail sales which reflected an overall decrease of less than $0.1 million, or 55%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016. The overall decrease was primarily

13



driven by a temporary shift in non-wine retail mix to lower margin channels, partially offset by improved margins on bulk wine sales.

Interest expense decreased less than $0.1 million, or 17%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016.  The decrease was primarily driven by capitalized interest in the current quarter related to the buildout of our winemaking facility in West Richland, Washington (the “Washington Winemaking Facility”).

Other income increased $0.1 million, or 126%, in the current quarter as compared to the same period in 2016.  The overall increase in other income was primarily driven by increased interest income on our short-term investments and increased net rental property income.

Income Tax Provision

The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were 38.4% and 37.7%, respectively. The difference between the consolidated effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate in the first quarter of 2017 and in the same period in 2016 was primarily attributable to state income taxes and the effect of certain permanent differences, which primarily consisted of meals and entertainment and the domestic production activity deduction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its available cash and cash equivalents, investments in available for sale securities, funds generated from operations and bank borrowings. The Company’s primary cash needs are to fund working capital requirements and capital expenditures.

Credit Facilities

In March 2013, Crimson entered into a $60.0 million revolving credit facility with American AgCredit, FLCA, as agent for the lenders identified in the revolving credit facility, comprised of a revolving loan facility and a term revolving loan facility, which together are secured by substantially all of Crimson’s assets. The revolving credit facility is for up to $10.0 million of availability in the aggregate for a five year term, and the term revolving credit facility is for up to $50.0 million in the aggregate for a fifteen year term. All obligations of Crimson under the revolving credit facility are collateralized by certain real property, including vineyards and certain winery facilities of Crimson, accounts receivable, inventory and intangible assets.  In addition to unused line fees ranging from 0.15% to 0.25%, rates for the borrowings are priced based on a performance grid tied to certain financial ratios and the London Interbank Offered Rate. The revolving credit facility can be used to fund acquisitions, capital projects and other general corporate purposes. Covenants include the maintenance of specified debt and equity ratios, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, limitations on dividends and other distributions to shareholders and restrictions on certain mergers, consolidations and sales of assets. No amounts have been borrowed under the revolving credit facility to date. 

On November 10, 2015, Pine Ridge Winery, LLC (“Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Crimson entered into a senior secured term loan agreement (the “term loan”) with American AgCredit, FLCA (“Lender”) for an aggregate principal amount of $16.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the term loan will bear a fixed interest rate of 5.24% per annum.

The term loan will mature on October 1, 2040 (the “Maturity Date”). On the first day of each January, April, July and October, commencing January 1, 2016,  Borrower is required to make a principal payment in the amount of $160,000 and an interest payment equal to the amount of all interest accrued through the previous day. A final payment of all unpaid principal, interest and any other charges with respect to the term loan shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

Borrower’s obligations under the term loan are guaranteed by the Company. All obligations of Borrower under the term loan are collateralized by certain real property of the Company. Borrower’s covenants include the maintenance of a specified debt service coverage ratio and certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness; limitations on distributions to shareholders; and restrictions on certain investments, sale of assets and merging or consolidating with other entities.

The full $16.0 million was drawn at closing and the term loan can be used to fund acquisitions, capital projects and other general corporate purposes. As of March 31, 2017, $15.2 million in principal was outstanding, and unamortized loan fees were $0.1 million.

Cash (used in) provided by operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, consisting primarily of $0.7 million of net income adjusted for non-cash items such as $2.1 million of depreciation and amortization, partially offset by $4.7 million of net cash outflow related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable and expense accruals, partially offset by a decrease in inventory and other current assets. The decrease in accounts payable and expense accruals was primarily due to grower payments made in the current quarter for the 2016 harvest.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, consisting primarily of $0.2 million of net income adjusted for non-cash items such as $2.0 million of depreciation and amortization and $1.0 million of net cash outflow related to changes in operating assets and liabilities. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable and expense accruals, partially offset by a decrease in inventory, excluding inventory acquired in the Seven Hills Winery acquisition, and accounts receivable.


15



Cash provided by (used in) investing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, consisting primarily of net redemptions of available for sale investments of $4.8 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $3.0 million. Capital expenditures of $3.0 million include $1.9 million of costs related to the buildout of the Washington Winemaking Facility and other planned purchases associated with ongoing business activities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $11.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, consisting primarily of $7.3 million of cash paid in the acquisition of Seven Hills Winery, capital expenditures of $3.8 million and net purchases of available for sale investments of $0.3 million.  Capital expenditures primarily related to $3.0 million in strategic land acquisitions.

Cash used in financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $0.5 million, which reflects contingent consideration payments of $0.4 million associated with the Seven Hills Winery acquisition and principal payments on our term loan of $0.2 million. 

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $1.0 million, which reflects the repurchase of shares of our common stock at a repurchase price totaling $0.9 million  and principal payments on our term loan of $0.2 million.

Share Repurchases

In March 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a share repurchase program (the “2014 Repurchase Program”) that provides for the repurchase of up to $2.0 million of outstanding common stock. Under the 2014 Repurchase Program, any repurchased shares were constructively retired, and on February 29, 2016 the 2014 Repurchase Program was completed. Under the total 2014 Repurchase Program the Company repurchased 228,522 shares at an original repurchase cost of $2.0 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Except as disclosed in Note 1 of this Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in the 2016 Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Crimson does not currently have any exposure to financial market risk.  Sales to international customers are denominated in U.S. dollars; therefore, Crimson is not exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  As discussed above under Liquidity and Capital Resources, Crimson has a revolving credit facility and a term loan. The revolving credit facility had no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2017, and has interest at floating rates on borrowings.  The term loan had $15.2 million outstanding at March 31, 2017, and is a fixed-rate debt, and therefore is not subject to fluctuations in market interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2017.  Based on their evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2017.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
