NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
 
NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Envela Corporation, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Envela”), included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Company suggests that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (such fiscal year, “Fiscal 2019” and such Annual Report on Form 10-K, the “Fiscal 2019 10-K”). In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of those of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly its results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain reclassifications were made to the prior year's consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year presentation.
 
NOTE 2 — PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Envela engages in diverse business activities within the recommerce sector. These include recommercializing luxury hard assets, consumer electronics and IT equipment, as well as providing end-of-life recycling solutions. Envela assesses its inventory of recommerce purchases for their potential to be refurbished and resold as whole goods or component parts, or to be recycled for precious-metal value. Envela also offers comprehensive recycling solutions for a variety of other companies seeking responsibly to dispose of end-of-life products. Envela primarily operates via two recommerce business segments. Through DGSE, LLC the Company recommercializes luxury hard assets via Dallas Gold and Silver Exchange, Charleston Gold & Diamond Exchange, and Bullion Express (collectively and together with DGSE, LLC, “DGSE”). Through ECHG, LLC, the Company operates Echo Environmental Holdings (“Echo”), ITAD USA Holdings (ITAD” and together with Echo, the “Echo Entities”), and Teladvance (“Teladvance” and together with ECHG, LLC and the Echo Entities, “ECHG”), which primarily recommercializes consumer electronics and IT equipment, and provide end-of-life recycling services for various companies across many industries. Envela conducts its recommerce operations at retail and wholesale levels, through distributors, resellers, dedicated stores and online. The Company also owns and operates other businesses and brands engaged in a variety of activities, as identified herein. Envela is headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
 
 
During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we revised the way we review and report our financial information to align more closely with the Company’s strategy to engage in diverse recommerce activities through two principle business units—DGSE and ECHG. The objective of segment reporting is to provide information about the different types of business activities in which a public entity engages. Although the Company’s overall strategy is recommerce, we feel there are several distinct segments within recommerce. DGSE buys hard assets, and ECHG buys consumer electronics and IT equipment, for either resale or recycling, each of which constitutes a distinct segment within recommerce. Envela continues to report its revenue and operating expenses based on its DGSE and ECHG operating segments, and beginning in fiscal year 2020, disaggregated its revenue, within the operating segments, based on its resale and recycle presentation basis. The Company’s historical disaggregation of revenue has been recast to conform to our current presentation.

DGSE buys to resell or recycle luxury hard assets, including jewelry, diamonds, fine watches, rare coins and currency, precious-metal bullion, collectables and other valuables. DGSE reconditions items for resale as a whole good or component parts, or recycles them by refining their precious metals for sale. These metals include gold, silver, platinum and palladium. DGSE currently operates four stores at the wholesale and retail levels, transacting throughout the United States via its facilities in Texas and South Carolina. DGSE’s lease in Southlake, Texas expired during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and DGSE vacated that retail location. DGSE purchased two new retail locations in the Dallas area Metroplex in Lewisville and Grapevine, respectively. The buildouts are expected to be completed and the two new retail locations are expected to open before the Christmas season.
 
For over 40 years, DGSE has been a destination location for those seeking value and liquidity in reselling or trading jewelry, and in recycling the precious metals of items it elects not to sell as a whole good or as component parts. DGSE’s in-house staff of experts, including horologists, gemologists and authenticators, inspect items for authenticity and value, and share their market knowledge with its customers.
 
ECHG buys consumer electronics and IT equipment for resale or recycling from businesses and other organizations, such as school districts. Items designated for resale as a whole or as component parts get extended operational life by first erasing any existing data and then refurbishing them before resale. ECHG recycles goods by removing usable components for resale as components, or by extracting the valuable metals (or other materials) for sale to downstream recycling companies who further process the metal for subsequent resale. Our customers include companies and organizations that are based domestically and internationally.
 
ECHG also provides transportation and product tracking, when needed, as part of its comprehensive end-of-life recycling and responsible-disposal services. Our goal is to extend the useful life of electronics through recommerce whenever possible. Resale and reuse conserves energy and raw materials required to make new products and turns obsolete IT assets into revenue.
 
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
 
The Company operates its business as two operating and reportable segments under a variety of banners. As referenced above, DGSE includes Charleston Gold & Diamond Exchange and Dallas Gold & Silver Exchange. ECHG includes Echo, ITAD and Teladvance.
 
 
      NOTE 3 — ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
Financial Instruments
 
 The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments. Note receivable, notes payable and notes payable, related party approximate fair value due to the market interest rate charged.
 
Earnings Per Share
 
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings available to holders of the Company’s common stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts requiring the Company to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the calculation of diluted earnings per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants outstanding determined using the treasury stock method.

Goodwill
 
Goodwill is not amortized, but evaluated for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, or earlier if events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired. The Company’s goodwill is related to the ECHG segment only and not the entire Company. ECHG has its own, separate financial information to perform goodwill impairment testing at least annually or if events indicate that those assets may be impaired. As a result of the current market and economic conditions related to COVID-19, in accordance with step 1 of the guidelines set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-20-35-3A, the Company concluded there were no impairments of goodwill that resulted from triggering events due to COVID-19 as of September 30, 2020. The Company will continue to evaluate goodwill for the ECHG segment. For tax purposes, goodwill is amortized and deductible over fifteen years.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment for all entities by requiring impairment changes to be based on the first step in today’s two-step impairment test, thus eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform step two of the goodwill impairment test. For public companies, ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.  We adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2020. There was no impact in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. This may result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The FASB issued several ASUs after ASU 2016-13 to clarify implementation guidance and to provide transition relief for certain entities. ASU 2016-13, due to Envela being a smaller reporting company, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13 and related amendments will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

ECHG, LLC, which is wholly owned by the Company, entered into an agreement with CExchange, LLC (“CExchange”) on February 15, 2020, pursuant to which it agreed to loan CExchange $1,500,000 bearing interest at eight and one-half percent (8.5%) with interest only payments due quarterly. The loan matures on February 20, 2023. The parties also agreed to warrant and call-option agreements through which ECHG, LLC may acquire all of CExchange’s equity interests upon the occurrence of certain events and on certain conditins. CExchange is a leader in retail trade-in services, providing in-store and online solutions for most of the major consumer electronics retailers in the United States. CExchange helps retailers provide in-store trade-in programs designed to allow customers to exchange their old technology for cash in minutes. These services and programs fit well with ECHG’s core business of refurbishing and reusing consumer electronics and IT equipment. Starting with the quarter ending June 30, 2020, CExchange helped DGSE facilitate their bullion on-line sales. There is no assurance that the Company will exercise its warrant or call option to acquire all of CExchange’s equity interests.

NOTE 10 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
During the first quarter of fiscal 2020, Envela views the way it views and reports its financial information to align more closely with the Company’s strategy to engage in diverse recommerce activities through two principle business units—DGSE and ECHG. DGSE buys hard assets, and ECHG buys consumer electronics and IT equipment, in each case for either resale or recycling. Envela continues to report its revenue and operating expenses based on its DGSE and ECHG operating segments, and as in the first three quarters of fiscal year 2020, disaggregated its revenue, within the operating segments, based on its resale and recycle presentation basis. The Company’s historical disaggregation of revenue has been recast to conform to our current presentation.
 
The DGSE segment includes Dallas Gold and Silver Exchange, having three locations throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, with two new locations expected to open during the fourth quarter of 2020, Charleston Gold and Diamond Exchange, with one location in Charleston, South Carolina and Bullion Express.
 
The ECHG segment includes Echo, ITAD and Teladvance. These three companies focus on reusing and recycling electronics. Echo and ITAD were acquired by the Company on May 20, 2019, and Teladvance was acquired on August 2, 2019, and therefore the results of operations may not be comparable for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2020.
 
We allocate a portion of certain corporate costs and expenses, including information technology, to our business segments that is included in Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. Our management team evaluates each segment’s operating performance and allocates resources based on each segment’s profits. Allocation amounts are generally agreed upon by management, and may differ from arms-length allocations.  
 
The following separates DGSE and ECHG’s financial results of operations for the three months ending September 30, 2020:

NOTE 11 — REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
ASC 606 provided guidance to identify performance obligations for revenue-generating transactions. The initial step is to identify the contract with a customer created with the sales invoice or a repair ticket. Secondly, we identify the performance obligations in the contract, as we promise to deliver the purchased item or promised repairs in return for payment or future payment as a receivable. The third step is determining the transaction price of the contract obligation, as in the full ticket price, negotiated price or a repair price. The next step is to allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations, as we designate a separate price for each item. The final step in the guidance is to recognize revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.
 
Beginning in fiscal year 2020, Envela disaggregated its revenue, within the operating segments, based on its resale and recycle presentation basis to more closely align with the Company’s activities. The Company’s historical disaggregation of revenue has been recast to conform to our current presentation.

DGSE recognizes revenue from its over-the-counter retail and resale transactions, and its wholesale-dealer transactions when the merchandise is delivered and payment is either made immediately or via receivable obligation. We also recognize revenue upon the shipment of goods when resale and wholesale customers have fulfilled their obligation to pay or made a promise to pay through e-commerce or telephone sales. We account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment costs after customers obtain control of the goods. We recycle material deemed to be past its useful life primarily to recover its precious-metal content. This material is sold to a Dallas-based refiner and we recognize revenue from these recycling sales when we receive payment.
 
DGSE offers layaway purchases, requiring a deposit, a 25% payment within two weeks, and full payment of the remaining balance within 90 days after the deposit. If customers fail to make either the 25% payment or final-balance payment within 90 days, then the items are returned to inventory, and such customers forfeit any payments made. We recognize revenue for layaway sales when the items are paid in full and delivered to the customers, or upon payment forfeiture.
 
Sales of fine watches, bullion, clearance/final-sale items, and custom, sized or engraved items are final. All other purchased items may be returned by customers to DGSE within 30 days from purchase for a full refund, less a 10% restocking fee. Returns are accounted for as reversals of the original transactions, with the effect of reducing revenues and cost of sales, and returning the merchandise to inventory. We have established an allowance for estimated returns related to sales based on historical returns and reduced our reported revenues and cost of sales accordingly. Our return allowance as of September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2020 remained the same for both periods, at approximately $28,000.
 
In limited circumstances, for wholesale dealers or resale customers, DGSE exchanges resale items for (a) similar resale items, or (b) similar resale items plus money payment. We recognize revenue for these exchanges in accordance with ASC 845, Nonmonetary Transactions. For resale item/resale item exchanges, without payments, we do not recognize any revenue; the basis of the resale items relinquished becomes the basis of the resale items received, less any indicated impairment of value of the resale items relinquished. For resale item/resale item-plus- payment exchanges, we recognize revenue to the extent of payments received, and determine the cost of sale based on the ratio of payments received to payments plus items received, multiplied by the cost of items surrendered.
 
ECHG has several revenue streams and recognizes revenue according to ASC 606 at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entities expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to customers. The revenue streams are described below.
 
Resale transactions are recorded when a product is shipped. Revenue is recognized when prices are established, terms agreed, and products shipped (i.e., upon ECHG fulfilling its performance obligations). ECHG typically requires resale customers to make prepayment based on an agreed commodity price. ECHG releases shipments upon confirming payment receipt and recognizes revenue on the shipping date. If payment is received on the last day of a month, and shipment occurs the following day, the payment is deferred revenue, recognized the following month when the shipment is made.
 
ECHG recycles material deemed to be past its useful life to recover precious and other non-ferrous metals. As part of its recycling operations, ECHG recognizes refining revenue when its performance obligations are satisfied, i.e., when its inventory arrives at the agreed destination and control of the contracted goods is transferred to the refiner. Our initial invoice is recognized in full when our performance obligation is satisfied, as referenced above. Under the guidance of ASC 606, an estimate of the variable consideration that we expect to receive is included in the transaction price, stated at the current precious-metal spot price and precious-metal weight. We adjust revenue in the period once the underlying metal’s weight and any movement in metal spot price is resolved, generally within six weeks. Adjustments from resolving the underlying uncertainty is netted with the remaining 40% due under the original contract.

ECHG also provides recycling services under agreed scopes of work. It recognizes services based on the number of units processed at a preset price per unit. ECHG produces weekly activity reports reflecting numbers of units processed; revenue is recognized based on billing from the weekly reports. ECHG performs recycling services either at its facilities or at clients’ facilities, as confirmed in the scope of work, together with the associated costs and payment terms.
 
Some of ECHG’s customers are on payment terms, and although low risk, occasionally the need arises to record an allowance for receivables that are deemed high risk to collect. We have established an allowance for estimated uncollectable receivables related to sales based on historical collections. Our allowance as of September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2020 was $0 and $20,428, respectively.
 
NOTE 12 — LEASES
 
When the ASC 842 lease provision was first adopted by the Company on January 1, 2019, we recognized $1,994,840 of operating lease right-of-use assets, $446,462 in short-term operating lease liabilities and $1,609,891 in long-term operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease liabilities were determined based on the present value of remaining minimum rental payments, and operating lease right-of-use assets were determined based on the value of lease liabilities, adjusted for deferred rent balances of $61,500, which were previously included in other liabilities.
 
We recognized an additional $2,350,781 of operating lease right-of-use assets, $703,523 in short-term operating lease liabilities and $1,647,258 in long-term operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet when we purchased the Echo Entities on May 20, 2019. Operating lease liabilities were determined based on the present value of remaining minimum rental payments, and operating lease right-of-use assets were determined based on the value of lease liabilities.
 
In determining our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, we apply a discount rate to the minimum lease payments within each lease agreement. ASC 842 requires us to use the interest rate that a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. If we cannot readily determine the discount rate implicit in lease agreements, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate.
 
The Company has six operating leases—five in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex and one in Charleston, South Carolina. One lease expired during the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The lease for DGSE’s Southlake, Texas location expired July 31, 2020, with no renewal options. We decided not to renew the lease and vacated the premises on July 31, 2020. The lease for DGSE’s flagship-store at 13022 Preston Road, Dallas, Texas will expire October 31, 2021, with no current renewal options. This location is under review as to whether to pursue a lease renewal. The lease for DGSE’s Grand Prairie, Texas location expires June 30, 2022, and has no current renewal options. The lease for DGSE’s Charleston, South Carolina location expires April 30, 2025, with no additional renewal options. The lease for DGSE’s Euless, Texas location expires June 30, 2025, with an option for an additional five years. ECHG’s Echo Environmental, located on W. Belt Line Road, in Carrollton, Texas, renewed their lease starting January 1, 2021 for 61 months, expiring January 31, 2026. A portion of this building is sublet, and the rent received is applied against the rental expense for the building. ECHG’s lease for ITAD’s location on McKenzie Drive in Carrollton, Texas expires July 31, 2021 and has no renewal option. All of the Company’s six leases are triple net, for which it pays its proportionate share of common area maintenance, property taxes and property insurance. Leasing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $421,790 and $338,402, respectively. Leasing costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1,071,066 and 814,572, respectively, comprised of a combination of minimum lease payments and variable lease costs.
 
As of September 30, 2020, the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate for operating leases was 2.5 years and 5.5%, respectively. For the three months ending September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s cash paid for operating lease liabilities was $428,241 and $348,955, respectively. The Company’s cash paid for operating lease liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1,100,280 and $826,745, respectively.

(1) On May 20, 2019, in connection with the acquisition of the Echo Entities (the “Echo Transaction”) the Company entered into two loan agreements with John R. Loftus, the Company’s CEO, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). ECHG, LLC executed a 5-year, $6,925,979 note for the Echo Transaction, amortized over 20 years at a 6% annual interest rate. DGSE, LLC executed a 5-year, $3,074,021 note to pay off the accounts payable – related party balance to Elemetal, LLC (“Elemetal”) as of May 20, 2019. That promissory note is also amortized over 20 years at a 6% annual interest rate. On January 1, 2020, revisions were made on the original documents for both DGSE and ECHG notes. Originally, the DGSE note stated that the monthly interest and principal payment due was $41,866 and the ECHG note stated that the monthly interest and principal payment due was $94,327. The revised interest and principal payment due monthly on the note for DGSE is $22,203. The revised interest and principal payment due monthly on the note for ECHG is $49,646. The allocation between short-term and long-term notes payable, related party was revised accordingly starting with the three months ending March 31, 2020.

(2) On July 9, 2020, DGSE closed the purchase of a new retail building located at 610 E. Round Grove Road in Lewisville, Texas for $1.195 million. The purchase was partly financed through a $956,000, 10 year loan, bearing an annual interest rate of 3.65%, amortized over 20 years, payable to Truist Bank (f/k/a BB&T Bank). The note has monthly interest and principal payments of $5,645.
 
(3) On September 14, 2020, 1106 NWH Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of DGSE, closed on the purchase of a new retail building located at 1106 W. Northwest Highway in Grapevine, Texas for $620,000. The purchase was partly financed through a $496,000, 5 year loan, bearing an annual interest rate of 3.75%, amortized over 20 years, payable to Texas Bank & Trust. The note has monthly interest and principal payments of $2,941.
 
(4) The Company applied for and received, on April 20, 2020, approximately $1.67 million, 1% interest, federally backed loan intended to pay employees and cover certain rent and utility-related costs during the COVID-19 pandemic (the “Federal Loan”), with Truist Bank (f/k/a BB&T Bank) as lender. The Federal Loan is forgivable to the extent that certain criteria are met. We will apply for the forgiveness of the Federal Loan during the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2020; therefore, we are classifying the loan as short-term.
 
Future scheduled principal payments of our notes payable and notes payable, related party, as of September 30, 2020 are as follows:

NOTE 15 — STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
The Company accounts for share-based compensation by measuring the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including grants of stock options, based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant. In addition, to the extent that the Company receives an excess tax benefit upon exercise of an award, such benefit is reflected as cash flow from financing activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
 
Stock-based compensation expense for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $0 and $0, respectively.

NOTE 16 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
The Company has a corporate policy governing the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of transactions with related persons (each such person, a “Related Party”), as that term is defined in the Instructions to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under this policy, all Related Party transactions are identified and approved prior to their consummation to ensure they are consistent with the Company’s and the stockholders’ best interests. Among other factors, the Company’s Board considers the size and duration of the transaction, the nature and interest of the of the Related Party in the transaction, whether the transaction may involve a conflict of interest, and if the transaction is on terms that are at least as favorable to the Company as would be available in a comparable transaction with an unaffiliated third party. Envela’s Board reviews all Related Party transactions at least annually to determine if it is in the best interest of the Company and the Company’s stockholders to continue, modify, or terminate any Related Party transactions. Envela’s Related Person Transaction Policy is available for review in its entirety under the “Investors” menu of the Company’s corporate relations website at www.envela.com.
 
Through a series of transactions beginning in 2010, Elemetal, NTR Metals, LLC (“NTR”) and Truscott Capital, LLC (“Truscott” and together with Elemetal and NTR, the “Related Entities”), became the largest shareholders of our common stock. On August 29, 2018, NTR transferred all of its common stock in the Company to Eduro Holdings, LLC (“Eduro”), which is controlled by John R. Loftus, the Company’s CEO, President and Chairman of the Board. A certain Related Entity (the “Related Trading Partner”) has been the Company’s primary refiner and bullion trading partner. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Related Trading Partner accounted for 3% of sales and 1% of purchases. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Related Trading Partner was no longer a Related Party. On May 20, 2019, through a series of transactions, the Related Entities sold their shares of the Company to Mr. Loftus. As of May 20, 2019, the Related Entities were no longer Related Parties. As of September 30, 2020, the Company was obligated to pay $0 to the Related Trading Party as a trade payable, and had a $0 receivable from the Related Trading Partner. As of September 30, 2019, the Company was obligated to pay $0 to the Related Trading Partner as a trade payable and had a $0 receivable from the Related Trading Partner. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company paid the Related Entities $0 and $46,068, respectively, in interest on the Company’s outstanding payable.
 
Through a series of transactions, as reported on its Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on May 24, 2019, Truscott sold its 12,814,727 shares of the Company’s common stock, which then represented 47.7% of the Company’s common stock outstanding, to John R. Loftus, the Company’s CEO, President and Chairman of the Board. In connection therewith, Mr. Loftus assumed all rights under the existing registration rights agreements. On the same day, Mr. Loftus contributed his 12,814,727 shares of the Company’s common stock to N10TR, LLC (“N10TR”), which is controlled by Mr. Loftus. Mr. Loftus, by virtue of his relationship with Eduro and N10TR may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own the shares of the Company’s common stock that Eduro and N10TR directly beneficially own. Also on the same day, the Company entered into two loan agreements with Mr. Loftus. ECHG, LLC executed a 5-year, $6,925,979 note in connection with the Echo Transaction, amortized over 20 years at a 6% annual interest rate. DGSE, LLC executed a 5-year, $3,074,021 note to pay off the accounts payable – related party balance to Elemetal, as of May 20, 2019. That promissory note is also amortized over 20 years at a 6% annual interest rate. Both notes are being serviced by operational cash flow. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company paid Mr. Loftus $442,550 and $194,081, respectively, in interest on the Company’s outstanding note payables, related party.

 NOTE 17 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
On September 14, 2020, the Company signed an initial agreement for the purchase of an office building to relocate its corporate headquarters, in Irving, Texas, for $3.521 million. The building has approximately 73,000 rentable square feet, and is approximately 70% leased. We closed the purchase of the building on November 4, 2020. The purchase was partly financed through a $2.96 million, 5 year loan, bearing an annual interest rate of 3.25%, amortized over 20 years, payable to Texas Bank & Trust. The Company will continue to sublet the building to offset the note payments.
 
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has adversely affected global economic business conditions. Future sales on products like ours could decline due to increased commodities prices, particularly gold. Although we are continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ultimate impact is highly uncertain and subject to change. We saw an adverse impact on the Company’s sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, and the pandemic may have a negative impact on our operations into year 2021. The duration of any such impact cannot be predicted, and the Company believes additional liquidity may be necessary to support ongoing operations during this period of uncertainty. The Company entered into a Federal Loan effective April 20, 2020 with Truist Bank (f/k/a BB&T Bank) as the lender in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.67 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Subject to the terms of the note, the Federal Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 1% per annum, with interest deferred up to 7 months payable monthly thereafter, has an initial term of two years and is unsecured and guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. The loan is intended to pay employees and cover certain rent and utility-related costs during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Federal Loan is forgivable to the extent that certain criteria are met. We will apply for the forgiveness of the Federal Loan during the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2020. There is no assurance that the Company will be granted forgiveness of the Federal Loan.

Results of Operations
 
General
 
The COVID-19 pandemic’s effects, including limited Company operations due to a portion of our retail stores being unable to sell certain products, mandated by governing authorities, and dramatic changes in consumer behavior, led to a decline in DGSE sales during the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. As the activity has grown rapidly, from increased business, at both DSGE's retail locations and ECHG's warehouses during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we continue to exercise the safety protocols established by the Company at the start of the pandemic. The Company continues to operate at full strength and will take measures to keep our employees safe where possible. The Company established safety protocols by wearing masks and social distancing where possible. The Company had no layoffs or terminations due to the pandemic, although there had been reduced revenue from governmental shut-in orders for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. As the activity has grown rapidly, from increased business, at both DGSE's retail locations and ECHG's warehouses during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we continue to exercise the safety protocols established by the Company at the start of the pandemic. The Company continues to operate at full strength and will take measures to keep our employees safe where possible. Although retail investors’ demand for precious-metal coins appeared to have contributed to higher gold pricesjewelry consumption and recycled-gold supply plunged during the second quarter as consumers were confined to their homes for most of the quarter in an effort to stem the spread of COVID-19, according to the World Gold Council (the “WGC”). Over the longer term, the WGC noted it believed that recycled-gold volumes could likely rise once restrictions are lifted, with consumers looking for liquid assetssuch as goldto help alleviate economic hardship caused by the lockdown. Consumer demand for our products rose following the lifting of governmental orders to refrain from selling non-essential items in our retail stores due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a related spiking of gold prices.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2019
 
Revenue. Revenue related to DGSE’s continuing operations increased by $11,484,247, or 69%, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, to $28,137,174, as compared to $16,652,927 during the same period in 2019. Resale revenue, such as bullion, jewelry, watches and rare coins, increased by $12,996,462, or 92%, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, to $27,101,477 as compared to $14,105,015 during the same period in 2019. Recycled-material sales decreased 59% to $1,035,697 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $2,547,912 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Revenue increased for resale items for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to the apparent increase in consumer demand following the lifting of governmental orders to refrain from selling non-essential items in our retail stores due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the related spiking of gold prices due to the pandemic. The decrease in recycled-materials revenue is primarily due to the spike in resale revenue stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic, as we purchased inventory for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, more inventory was kept for our retail stores as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, and recycled less.
 
Revenue related to ECHG’s continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $4,465,436, or 72%, to $10,673,710, as compared to $6,208,274 during the same period in 2019. Resale revenue increased by $2,679,372, or 52%, to $7,182,553 as compared to $5,133,181 during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Recycled sales increased by $1,786,064 or 166%, to $2,861,157 as compared to $1,075,093 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Teladvance was acquired on August 2, 2019; therefore, the revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 may not be fully comparable to the three months ended September 30, 2020.
 
The Company has no layoffs to-date or terminations due to the pandemic, although revenue declined from governmental shut-in orders for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Gross Profit. Gross profit related to DGSE’s operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020, increased by $1,414,108, or 70%, to $3,432,960 as compared to $2,018,852 during the same period in 2019. The increase in total gross profit was due primarily to the increase in sales velocity of resale items due to the apparent increase in consumer demand following lifting of the governmental restrictions from the COVID-19 pandemic and the aforementioned related spike in gold prices. Although there was increased revenue for the resale items, there was also a slightly lower gross-margin percentages due to DGSE’s desire to increase the sales velocity after the lifting of governmental orders due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
 
Gross profit related to ECHG for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $3,730,437 as compared to $3,167,602 during the same period in 2019. Gross profit for resale revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $2,376,406, or 64% of ECHG’s gross profit, compared to recycled gross profit during the same period of $1,354,031, or 36%. Teladvance was acquired on August 2, 2019; therefore, the gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2019 may not be fully comparable to the three months ended September 30, 2020.
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for DGSE decreased by $164,750, or 9%, to $1,703,394, as compared to $1,868,144 during the same period in 2019. The decrease in SG&A was primarily due to corporate overhead expenses being shared between both the DGSE and ECHG segments.
 
The SG&A expenses for ECHG totaled $2,166,279 for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Teladvance was acquired on August 2, 2019, therefore, the SG&A expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 may not be fully comparable to the three months ended September 30, 2020.
 
Depreciation and Amortization. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, depreciation and amortization expense for DGSE was $79,190, compared to $44,368 for the same period in 2019, an increase of $34,822, or 78%. The increase of $34,822 from the three months ending September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ending September 30, 2019 is primarily due to a vehicle purchase during the first quarter of 2020 and amortization expenses from additional point of sale “POS” costs during the year to be amortized.
 
The Depreciation and Amortization expense for ECHG consisted of depreciation of $16,692 and amortization of $83,900 for the three months ending September 30, 2020. Amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2020, is from the Echo Entities’ Purchase Price Allocation of intangibles amortized over 10 years. Teladvance was acquired on August 2, 2019; therefore, the depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 may not be fully comparable to the three months ended September 30, 2020.

This increase was primarily the result of additional loans to DGSE to finance recent real estate acquisitions for retail operations, as discussed above.
 
The interest expense for ECHG was $101,868 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to $101,956 for the same period in 2019, a slight decrease due to a paid down principal balance on the note payable, related party.

The Echo Entities were acquired on May 20, 2019, and Teladvance was acquired on August 2, 2019; therefore, the SG&A expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 is not comparable to the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected global economic business conditions. Future sales of products like ours have and may continue to decline due to increased commodities prices, particularly gold. Although we are continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ultimate impact, including the impact on our liquidity and capital resources, is highly uncertain and subject to change. The duration of any such impact cannot be predicted, and the Company believes additional liquidity may be necessary to support ongoing operations during this period of uncertainty. The Company entered into a Payment Protection Term Note effective April 20, 2020 with Truist Bank (f/k/a BB&T Bank) as the lender in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.67 million pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the Coronavirus Aid Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, the Federal Loan. On May 18, 2020, the Company renewed and increased its Texas Bank & Trust Co. line of credit (the “Truist Credit Facility”) from $1,000,000 to $3,500,000, and from a one-year term to a two-year term, of which $0 is currently drawn. The loan agreement for the Truist Credit Facility includes a 30-day clean-up provision. From time to time we adjust our inventory levels to meet seasonal demand or working-capital requirements. Management believes we have sufficient capital resources (including the Federal Loan) to meet working-capital requirements. If additional working capital is required, we will seek additional loans from individuals or other commercial banks. The availability of such loans on acceptable terms is uncertain.
 
We expect our capital expenditures to total approximately $150,000 during the next twelve months. These expenditures will be driven by build-out expenses for properties purchased by DGSE for retail locations, and the purchase of the office building discussed below.
 
On September 14, 2020, the Company signed an initial agreement for the purchase of an office building to relocate its corporate headquarters, in Irving, Texas, for $3.521 million. The building has approximately 73,000 rentable square feet, and is approximately 70% leased. We closed the purchase of the building on November 4, 2020. The purchase was partly financed through a $2.96 million, 5 year loan, bearing an annual interest rate of 3.25%, amortized over 20 years, payable to Texas Bank & Trust. The Company will continue to sublet the building to offset the note payments. 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
 
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Because we are a “smaller reporting company,” we are not required to disclose the information required by this item.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management has concluded that as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at a reasonable assurance level, in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in that the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act and are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
We believe, however, that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud or error, if any, within a company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
There are various claims, lawsuits and pending actions against the Company arising in the normal course of the Company's business. It is the opinion of management that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flow. Management is also not aware of any legal proceedings contemplated by government agencies of which the outcome is reasonable likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.
 
 
ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS
 
Because we are a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to disclose the information required by this item. Although we are not required to address this item, we feel it is prudent to do so.  
 
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced that infections of the coronavirus COVID-19 had become pandemic, and on March 13, the U.S. President announced a National Emergency relating to the disease. There has been widespread infection throughout the United States and abroad. National, state and local authorities have recommended social distancing and imposed quarantine and isolation measures on large portions of the population, including mandatory business and partial-business closures. These measures, while intended to protect human life, are having serious adverse impacts on domestic and foreign economies. The effectiveness of economic-stabilization efforts, including government payments to affected citizens and industries, is uncertain. Some economists are predicting the United States will soon enter a recession.
 
The sweeping nature of the COVID-19 pandemic makes it extremely difficult to predict how our business and operations will be affected in the long term, though the likely overall economic impact of the pandemic is viewed as highly negative to the general economy. While it remains a developing situation, any continuing quarantines, interruptions in travel and business disruptions with respect to us, our customers or our supply chain could adversely affect our sales, costs and liquidity position, possibly to a significant degree. We may also become subject to partial store closures, as before. Although we are continuing to monitor and assess the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on our business, the ultimate impact is highly uncertain and subject to change. The duration of any such impact cannot be predicted.
 
The coronavirus pandemic is adversely affecting, and is expected to continue to adversely affect, our operations, supply chains and distribution systems, and we have experienced and expect to continue to experience unpredictable reductions in demand for certain of our products and services.
 
DGSE’s business, similar to the jewelry industry overall, is affected by fluctuations in precious-metals prices. Such fluctuations, particularly with respect to gold, which accounts for the majority of DGSE’s merchandise costs, could adversely impact its earnings and cash availability. Additionally, DGSE depends on purchasing products and materials from secondary markets. At any given time, we may be unable to obtain an adequate supply of products and materials at prices or other terms acceptable to us.
 
ECHG’s recycling business is affected by precious and other non-ferrous metals’ prices, which fluctuate based upon global supply-and-demand dynamics, among other things, with the greatest impact relating to gold. Additionally, ECHG depends on purchasing products and materials from secondary markets. At any given time, we may be unable to obtain an adequate supply of products and materials at prices and other terms acceptable to us. Compliance with future environmental laws and regulations, or current environmental laws and regulations reinterpreted in the future, could result in costs that have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Except as set forth above, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020.
