NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2019
(Unaudited)
Note (1) - General: The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EVI Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X related to interim period financial statements. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include certain information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are necessary in order to state fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial position, shareholders’ equity and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future period. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes, including the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The June 30, 2019 balance sheet information contained herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The estimates and assumptions made may not prove to be correct, and actual results could differ from the estimates.
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is a value-added distributor, and provides advisory and technical services. Through its vast sales organization, the Company provides its customers with planning, designing, and consulting services related to their commercial laundry operations. The Company sells and/or leases its customers commercial laundry equipment specializing in washing, drying, finishing, material handling, water heating, power generation, and water reuse applications. In support of the suite of products it offers, the Company sells related parts and accessories. Additionally, through the Company’s robust network of commercial laundry technicians, the Company provides its customers with installation, maintenance, and repair services.
The Company’s customers include retail, commercial, industrial, institutional, and government customers. Product purchases made by customers range from parts and accessories, to single or multiple units of equipment, to large complex systems. The Company also provides its customers with the services described above.
The Company’s growth strategy includes organic growth initiatives and business acquisitions pursuant to the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy, which was implemented in 2015. See Note 3, “Acquisitions,” for information regarding the acquisition of PLS (as defined in Note 3), which was consummated during the six months ended December 31, 2019.
Note (2) – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Adoption of New Lease Standard
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which, among other things, requires lessees to recognize
10
EVI Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2019
(Unaudited)
substantially all leases on their balance sheets and disclose certain additional key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard establishes a right of use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are required to be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations. The new standard became effective for the Company on July 1, 2019. The Company adopted this standard using the modified retrospective transition approach, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, to the opening balance of retained earnings to be recognized on the date of adoption without restatement of prior periods. Therefore, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 are presented under the new standard, while the comparative period financial statements presented herein were not adjusted for this standard and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company's previous lease accounting policy. There was no cumulative-effect adjustment recorded on July 1, 2019.
The Company elected the package of transition practical expedients for expired or existing contracts, which does not require reassessment of: (1) whether any of the Company's contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs.
The primary impact for the Company was the balance sheet recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases as a lessee. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the results of operations or cash flows of the Company. See Note 6, “Leases,” for further discussion regarding the Company’s adoption of the new standard.
Significant Accounting Policies
Except for the new lease standard adopted on July 1, 2019 described above, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies from those described in Note 1 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
Note (3) – Acquisitions:
PLS Acquisition
On August 1, 2019, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Professional Laundry Systems, LLC (“Professional Laundry Systems”), purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of Commercial Laundry Products, Inc., Professional Laundry Systems of PA, Inc. and Professional Laundry Systems West, Inc. (collectively, “PLS”), which distribute commercial, industrial, and vended laundry products and provide installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement segments of the commercial, industrial and vended laundry industry. The acquisition was treated for accounting purposes as a purchase of PLS using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, pursuant to which the consideration paid by the Company was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, in each case, based on their respective fair values as of the closing date, with the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired being allocated to intangible assets and goodwill. The Company allocated $945,000 to goodwill, $170,000 to customer-related intangibles, and $110,000 to the Professional Laundry Systems trade name. The purchase price allocation is considered preliminary, as the Company is still assessing certain working capital items.

PAC Acquisition
On February 5, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition (the “PAC Acquisition”) of PAC Industries Inc. (“PAC”). As a portion of the consideration paid in connection with the PAC Acquisition, the Company issued 114,634 shares to PAC’s employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”). These shares were not permitted to be traded during the six-month period commencing on the closing date. Further, if a distribution event occurred during such six-month period, then each participant in the ESOP would have had the option to require the Company to purchase such participant’s shares at fair market value. Due to the Company’s obligation under this put option, which was in effect at June 30, 2019 but has subsequently expired, the distributed shares subject to the put option which were held by the ESOP were classified as temporary equity in the mezzanine section of the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019. No distribution events occurred during the six-month restriction period. Accordingly, on August 5, 2019, each participant’s option to require the Company to purchase such participant’s shares at fair market value if a distribution event occurred expired. As a result, such shares are classified as permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019.
See also Note 13, “Subsequent Events,” for information regarding the Company’s acquisition of Laundry Systems of Tennessee, which was completed on January 31, 2020.
Note (4) - Earnings Per Share: The Company computes earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Shares of the Company’s common stock subject to unvested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units are considered participating securities because they contain a non-forfeitable right to cash dividends or dividend equivalents paid prior to vesting or forfeiture, if any, irrespective of whether the awards or units ultimately vest. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six and three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 are computed as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into a syndicated credit agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) for a five-year revolving credit facility in the maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. A portion of the revolving credit facility is available for swingline loans of up to a sublimit of $5 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit of up to a sublimit of $10 million.
Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the 2018 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. The 2018 Credit Agreement has a term of five years and matures on November 2, 2023.
The 2018 Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios. The 2018 Credit Agreement also contains other provisions which may restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, dispose of or acquire assets or businesses, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and capital expenditures, pay dividends, repurchase shares and enter into transactions with affiliates. At December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the 2018 Credit Agreement and $4.4 million was available to borrow under the revolving credit facility.
The obligations of the Company under the 2018 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Note (6) - Leases:
Company as Lessee
The Company leases warehouse and distribution facilities and administrative office space, generally for terms of three to five years.
As described in Note 2 above, the Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842” or “Topic 842”), utilizing the modified retrospective adoption method with an effective date of July 1, 2019. The Company made the election to not apply the recognition requirements in Topic 842 to short-term leases (i.e., leases of 12 months or less). Instead, the Company, as permitted by Topic 842, will recognize the lease payments under its short-term leases in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected this accounting policy for all classes of underlying assets. In addition, in accordance with Topic 842, variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred are not included in the recognition of a lease liability or right-of-use asset.
Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value. However, certain of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. For such leases, the Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The Company uses instruments with similar characteristics when calculating its incremental borrowing rates.
The Company has options to extend certain of its operating leases for additional periods of time and the right to terminate several of its operating leases prior to its contractual expiration, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the lease. The lease term consists of the non-cancellable period of the lease and the periods covered by Company options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. The Company's lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees. The Company has elected to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component for all underlying classes of assets with lease and non-lease components.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company had 24 facilities financed under operating leases, consisting of warehouse facilities and administrative offices, with lease term expirations between 2020 and 2028. Rent expense consists of monthly rental payments under the terms of the Company’s lease agreements recognized on a straight-line basis.
The following table provides details of the Company’s future minimum lease payments under operating lease liabilities recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019. The table below does not include commitments that are contingent on events or other factors that are currently uncertain or unknown.

Company as Lessor
The Company derives a portion of its revenue from equipment leasing arrangements. Such arrangements provide for monthly payments covering the equipment provided, maintenance, and interest. These arrangements meet the criteria to be accounted for as sales type leases. Accordingly, revenue for provision of the equipment is recognized upon delivery of the equipment and its acceptance by the customer. Upon the recognition of such revenue, an asset is established for the investment in sales type leases. Maintenance revenue and interest are recognized monthly over the lease term.
The future minimum lease payments receivable for sales type leases are as follows (in thousands):

The current portion of $0.8 million and $0.5 million is included in Other Current Assets in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively, and the long term portion of $2.7 million and $2.5 million is included in Other Assets in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.
Note (7) - Income Taxes: Income taxes are recorded in the Company’s quarterly financial statements based on the Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate, subject to adjustment for discrete events, should they occur.
As of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 3019, the Company had net deferred tax liabilities of approximately $2.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Consistent with the guidance of the FASB regarding accounting for income taxes, the Company regularly estimates its ability to recover deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to reduce the balance to amounts expected to be recoverable. This evaluation includes the consideration of several factors, including an estimate of the likelihood of generating sufficient taxable income in future periods over which temporary differences reverse, the expected reversal of deferred tax liabilities, past and projected taxable income and available tax planning strategies. As of December 31, 2019, management believed that it was more-likely-than-not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the net amount of the Company’s deferred tax assets over the periods during which temporary differences reverse.
The Company follows ASC Topic 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. During the six and three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company’s accounting for income taxes in accordance with this standard did not result in any adjustment to the Company’s provision for income taxes.
As of December 31, 2019, the Company was subject to potential federal and state tax examinations for the tax years 2016 through 2019.
Note (8) – Equity Plans:
Equity Incentive Plan
In November 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to awards granted under the Plan. The fair value of awards granted under the Plan is expensed on straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. Share-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note (10) – Recently Issued Accounting Guidance: In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The new guidance will eliminate the second step from the goodwill impairment test required in computing the implied fair value of goodwill. Instead, under the new guidance, an entity will be required to perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and, if applicable, the entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the charge recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. If applicable, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when performing the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this guidance are effective for public business entities for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 (the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021 for the Company), with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.
Other than as described above, management does not believe that accounting standards and updates which have been issued but are not yet effective will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Note (11) – Commitments and Contingencies: In the ordinary course of business, certain of the Company’s contracts require the Company to provide performance and payment bonds related to projects in process. These bonds are intended to provide a guarantee to the customer that the Company will perform under the terms of the contract and that the Company will pay subcontractors and vendors. If the Company fails to perform under the contract or pay subcontractors and vendors, the customer may demand that the surety make payments or provide services under the bond. The Company is required to reimburse the surety for expenses or outlays it incurs. At each of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, outstanding performance and payment bonds totaled $8.0 million, and there were no estimated costs to complete projects secured by these bonds.
The Company may from time to time become subject to litigation and other legal proceedings. Litigation and other legal proceedings may require the Company to incur significant expenses, including those relating to legal and other professional fees. In addition, litigation and other legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and adverse outcomes in litigation or other legal proceedings could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, cash flows, and operating results.

It is important to note, however, that from time to time the Company enters into longer-term contracts, including to fulfill large complex laundry projects for divisions of the federal government, where the nature of, and competition for, such contracts may result in a lower gross margin as compared to other equipment sales. Despite the potential for a lower gross margin from such longer-term contracts, the Company believes that the long-term benefit from the increase in its installed equipment will outweigh the possible short-term impact to gross margin.
The Company’s operating expenses consist of (a) selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily salaries, and commissions and marketing expenses that are variable and correlate to changes in sales, (b) expenses related to the operation of warehouse facilities, including facility rent, which is payable mostly under non-cancelable operating leases, and the Company’s fleet of installation and service vehicles, and (c) operating expenses at the parent company, including compensation expenses, fees for professional services, expenses associated with being a public company, including increased expenses attributable to the Company’s growth, and expenses in furtherance of the Company’s buy-and-build growth strategy.
Acquisition History

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Refer to Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of recently adopted significant accounting policies.
Results of Operations
Six and Three-Month Periods Ended December 31, 2019 Compared to the Six and Three-Month Periods Ended December 31, 2018
The “build” component of the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy involves implementing a growth culture at acquired businesses based on the exchange of ideas and business concepts among the management teams of the Company and the acquired businesses as well as through certain initiatives, which may include investments in additional sales and service personnel, new product lines, enhanced service operations and capabilities, new and improved facilities, and advanced technologies. The Company pursues market share growth using a variety of strategies aimed at increasing the installed base of the wide range of commercial laundry equipment the Company represents. Certain market share growth tactics may, from time to time, result in lower gross margins. However, the Company believes that a greater installed base of equipment strengthens the Company’s existing customer relationships and increases the Company’s total number of customer relationships, consequently creating a larger and stronger customer base to which the Company may sell products and services. These may include certain higher margin products and services and any additional products and services which the Company may offer or sell from time to time as a result of any business acquisitions, the sale or lease of complementary products, and expansion of its service operations.
Finally, it is important to note that, as a value-added distributor and a provider of technical services in the commercial laundry industry, the Company partners with its customers to plan, design, install, and maintain their commercial laundry operations. The nature of the Company’s business not only requires a competent and well-trained sales organization to win customer orders, but also requires proper, timely, and cost-effective installation ranging from single units of equipment to complex multimillion dollar laundry systems. Such installations also require coordination and collaboration with the Company’s customers and any third-parties they may retain. Consequently, the recognition of revenue and profit, from time to time, may be impacted by delays in construction and/or the preparation of customer facilities for the installation of purchased commercial laundry equipment and systems. This may result in decreased revenue and profit in the current period but a source of future revenue and profit through the ultimate fulfillment of the Company’s backlog of customer orders not yet recognized and pending installation.
Revenues
Revenues for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 increased $18.1 million, or 17%, and $5.8 million, or 10%, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increases in revenue were due to the results of operations of acquired businesses whose results for all or part of the six and three months ended December 31, 2018 were not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for such periods, including Scott Equipment, Washington Automated, and PAC Industries, and the success of certain sales tactics executed by the Company to increase market share.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 increased $4.5 million, or 19%, and $398,000, or 3%, respectively, compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year, primarily as a
24
result of increased revenues. Gross margins increased from 22.5% to 22.8% for the six-month period ended December 31, 2019 and decreased from 22.5% to 21.1% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2019, each compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. The success of the Company’s market share growth strategy described above had an adverse impact on gross margins during the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019.
Further, as described above, from time to time the Company enters into longer-term contracts, including to fulfill large complex laundry projects for divisions of the federal government. These contracts generally have a lower gross margin compared to other equipment sales and, as a result, adversely impact the Company’s gross margin for periods in which a significant number of these contracts are entered into. However, the Company believes that these contracts will result in higher margin opportunities over the long-term. During the six and three month periods ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company entered into a number of longer-term federal government contracts, which adversely impacted the Company’s gross margin for each such period. In the absence of such longer-term federal government contracts, gross margins for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year decreased 1.7% to 24.0% and 3.3% to 22.8%, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Operating expenses increased $6.0 million, or 30%, and $1.7 million, or 15%, for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019, compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increase in operating expenses resulted from the Company’s continued execution of its buy-and-build growth strategy and other expenses in connection with the Company’s growth and growth initiatives.
The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to (a) additional post-acquisition operating expenses associated with acquired businesses not reflected in operating expenses for the prior fiscal year period, (b) additional operating expenses at the acquired businesses in pursuit of future growth and in support of the Company’s growing operations, (c) increases in operating expenses in connection with the Company’s growth, including greater accounting fees and expenses, legal fees, and insurance costs, (d) the addition of sales, service, and operations support professionals and related costs, as total personnel at December 31, 2019 increased by 29% compared to total personnel at December 31, 2018, with 74% of such increase attributable to sales and service related personnel, (e) increased investments in sales, service, and operations related technologies in support of the Company’s “buy-and-build” growth strategy, and (f) an increase in non-cash amortization expense related to the intangible assets the Company acquired in connection with its acquisitions, an increase in depreciation expense and an increase in non-cash share-based compensation.
As a result of the foregoing, operating expenses as a percentage of revenues for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 were 21.1% and 19.9%, respectively, compared to 19.1% and 19.0% for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2018, respectively.
Interest Expense
Net interest expense for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 were $855,000 and $433,000, respectively, compared to $539,000 and $374,000, respectively, for the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increases in net interest expense are primarily due to increases in average outstanding borrowings.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rates were 31.5% and 29.3% for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019, respectively, compared to 31.2% and 26.8%% for the same periods of the prior fiscal year, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six and three-month periods ended December 31, 2019 is attributable to an increase in the net impact of permanent book-tax differences
25
resulting primarily from nondeductible compensation, partially offset by lower effective state tax rates from increased apportionment to states with lower tax rates.
Net Income
Net income for the six and three months ended December 31, 2019 was $843,000 and $263,000, respectively, compared to $2.1 million and $1.3 million for the same periods of the prior fiscal year, respectively. As described above, the increases in revenue and gross profit were offset by lower gross margins and by operating expense increases, including increases in (a) operating expenses related to acquired businesses, (b) operating expenses in support of the Company’s buy-and-build efforts and initiatives, and (c) the increase in non-cash charges related to the amortization of intangible assets, depreciation expense and share-based compensation.
Consolidated Financial Condition
The Company’s total assets increased from $154.5 million at June 30, 2019 to $158.4 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets was primarily attributable to the adoption of the new lease standard effective July 1, 2019, resulting in the establishment of an operating lease asset, and the assets the Company acquired in connection with the PLS Acquisition consummated by the Company during the six months ended December 31, 2019, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable and contract assets. The Company’s total liabilities increased from $73.0 million at June 30, 2019 to $74.1 million at December 31, 2019, which was primarily attributable to the adoption of the new lease standard effective July 1, 2019, resulting in the establishment of an operating lease liability, and an increase in customer deposits, partially offset by decrease in long-term debt as well as a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses from timing of payments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2019, cash increased by approximately $886,000 compared to an increase of approximately $8.8 million during the six-month period ended December 31, 2018.
Working Capital
Working capital decreased from $37.2 million at June 30, 2019 to $31.1 million at December 31, 2019, primarily reflecting the adoption of the new lease standard effective July 1, 2019, resulting in the establishment of a current operating lease liability, lower levels of accounts receivable and the utilization of cash on hand to pay off long-term debt, partially offset by higher levels of inventory and lower levels of accounts payable and accrued expenses. The decrease in accounts receivable was primarily attributable to the timing of collection of payments and decreased amounts that were owed related to progress billing on longer-term contracts. The increase in inventory was primarily attributable to the inventory acquired in connection with the PLS Acquisition as well as increases related to the timing of the Company’s placement of equipment orders and availability of products from certain vendors at favorable prices during the period.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes the Company’s cash flow activity for the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):
26
Six Months Ended December 31, | ||||||||
2019 | 2018 | |||||||
Net cash provided (used) by: | ||||||||
Operating activities | $ | 9,608 | $ | (9,855 | ) | |||
Investing activities | $ | (2,639 | ) | $ | (8,431 | ) | ||
Financing activities | $ | (6,083 | ) | $ | 27,129 |
The individual items contributing to cash flow changes for the periods presented are detailed in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Operating Activities
For the six months ended December 31, 2019, operating activities provided cash of $9.6 million compared to cash used by operating activities of $9.9 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. This $19.5 million increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to changes in working capital, including a decrease in accounts receivable and an increase in customer deposits partially offset by the decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased $5.8 million to $2.6 million during the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to $8.4 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. This $5.8 million decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash used for acquisitions, partially offset by an increase in cash used for capital expenditures. The increase in capital expenditures is due in part to expenses in furtherance of certain growth initiatives, including primarily an increase in capital expenditures in connection with growth initiatives related to the laundry route and rental business in which certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are engaged.
Financing Activities
For the six months ended December 31, 2019, financing activities used cash of $6.1 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of $27.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018. This $33.2 million increase in cash used by financing activities was primarily attributable to the cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended December 31, 2019 which were used to make debt repayments in excess of proceeds from borrowings compared to proceeds from borrowings in excess of debt repayments during the six months ended December 31, 2018. Borrowings during the six months ended December 31, 2018 were used primarily to fund the changes in working capital during such period and the cash consideration paid in connection with the acquisitions consummated by the Company during such period.
Revolving Credit Agreement
On November 2, 2018, the Company entered into a syndicated credit agreement (the “2018 Credit Agreement”) for a revolving credit facility with a five-year term and a maximum aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million, with an accordion feature to increase the revolving credit facility by up to $40 million for a total of $140 million. The Company uses borrowings under the revolving credit facility to fund in part its working capital needs, acquisitions, dividends (if and to the extent declared by the Company’s Board of Directors), capital expenditures, amounts paid to satisfy tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of certain restricted stock awards, issuances of letters of credit, and for other general corporate purposes. The obligations of the Company under the 2018 Credit Agreement are secured by
27
substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The 2018 Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s previous credit facility, which was repaid in full with borrowings of $20.8 million under the 2018 Credit Agreement.
Borrowings (other than swingline loans) under the 2018 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Swingline loans bear interest calculated at the Base Rate plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the Consolidated Leverage Ratio.
The 2018 Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to comply with maximum leverage ratios and minimum interest coverage ratios. The 2018 Credit Agreement also contains other provisions which may restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, dispose of or acquire assets or businesses, incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments and capital expenditures, pay dividends, repurchase shares and enter into transactions with affiliates. At December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the 2018 Credit Agreement and $4.4 million was available to borrow under the revolving credit facility.
The Company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash from operations and funds available under the 2018 Credit Agreement will be sufficient to fund its operations and anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months. The Company may also seek to raise funds through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities or the incurrence of additional secured or unsecured indebtedness, including in connection with acquisitions or other transactions pursued or consummated by the Company as part of its buy-and-build growth strategy.
As previously described, the Company has in place an equity incentive plan, the EVI Industries, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which restricted stock and other equity-based awards and cash awards may be granted to participants in the Plan. Upon request by a holder of restricted stock granted under the Plan, the Company may issue shares upon vesting net of the statutory withholding requirements that the Company pays on behalf of its employees. For financial statement purposes, the shares withheld are treated as being repurchased by the Company and reduce additional paid-in capital within shareholders’ equity and are reflected as repurchases in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and shareholders’ equity as they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon vesting. During the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, share repurchases related to shares withheld upon the vesting of previously granted restricted stock awards were approximately $309,000 and $359,000, respectively.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing
The Company had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K at December 31, 2019.
Inflation
Inflation did not have a significant effect on the Company’s results during any of the reported periods.

Critical Accounting Policies
In connection with the preparation of its financial statements, the Company makes estimates and assumptions, including those that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Estimates and assumptions made may not prove to be correct, and actual results may differ from the estimates. The accounting policies that the Company has identified as critical to its business operations and to an understanding of the Company’s financial statements remain unchanged from those described in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, except with respect to the adoption of the new lease accounting standard as described in Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Report.
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
See Note 10 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Report for a description of Recently Issued Accounting Guidance.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. |
The Company’s indebtedness subjects the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rates are subject to the influence of economic conditions generally, both domestic and foreign, and also to the monetary and fiscal policies of the United States and its agencies, particularly the Federal Reserve. The nature and timing of any changes in such policies or general economic conditions and the effect they may have on the Company are unpredictable. The Company’s indebtedness may also have other important impacts on the Company, including that the Company will be required to utilize cash flow to service the debt, indebtedness may make the Company more vulnerable to economic downturns, and the Company’s indebtedness subjects the Company to covenants and may place restrictions on its operations and activities, including its ability to pay dividends and take certain other actions. Interest on borrowings under the Company’s 2018 Credit Agreement accrue at a rate, at the Company’s election at the time of borrowing, equal to (a) LIBOR plus a margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.75% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio, which is a ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (the “Consolidated Leverage Ratio”) or (b) the highest of (i) prime, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points, and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points (such highest rate, the “Base Rate”), plus a margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% depending on the
30
Consolidated Leverage Ratio. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $35.0 million of outstanding borrowings with a weighted average interest rate of 3.49%. Based on the amounts outstanding at December 31, 2019, a hypothetical 1% increase in daily interest rates would increase the Company’s annual interest expense by approximately $350,000.
All of the Company’s export sales require the customer to make payment in United States dollars. Accordingly, foreign sales may be affected by the strength of the United States dollar relative to the currencies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located, as well as the strength of the economies of the countries in which the Company’s customers are located. The Company has, at times in the past, paid certain suppliers in Euros. The Company had no foreign exchange contracts outstanding at December 31, 2019 or June 30, 2019.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained in bank accounts which bear interest at prevailing interest rates. At December 31, 2019, bank deposits exceeded Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, management of the Company, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
