Note 1 - Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Description of Business

 

EVO Transportation and Energy Services, Inc. (“EVO, Inc.” or the “Company”) is a holding company based in Phoenix, Arizona, that owns eight operating subsidiaries: W.E. Graham Inc. (“Graham”), EVO Equipment Leasing, LLC (“Leasing”), Titan CNG, LLC (“Titan”), Thunder Ridge Transport, Inc. (“Thunder Ridge”), Ursa Major Corporation (“Ursa”), J.B. Lease Corporation (“JB Lease”), Sheehy Mail Contractors, Inc. (“Sheehy”), and Environmental Alternative Fuels, LLC (“EAF”), which are in the businesses of fulfilling United States Postal Service (“USPS”) and corporate contracts for freight trucking services and compressed natural gas (“CNG”) service stations. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company owned seven CNG stations located in California, Texas, Arizona, and Wisconsin. Of these stations, four were company operated, two were inactive, and one was operated by a third-party management company. The Company’s two reportable segments are Trucking and CNG.

 

The Company’s non-reportable segments include support services that the Company’s subsidiaries provide to customers (including repair and maintenance shop services and equipment leasing) as well as corporate expenses.

 

Sheehy Acquisition

 

On January 4, 2019, but effective January 2, 2019, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Sheehy. See Note 2 – Acquisition – Sheehy for more information regarding the Sheehy Acquisition.

 

Ursa Acquisition

 

On February 1, 2019, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Ursa and JB Lease. See Note 2 – Acquisition – Ursa and JB Lease for more information regarding the Ursa Acquisition.

 

Going Concern

 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $34.5 million, stockholders’ deficit of approximately $9.7 million, and negative operating cash flows of $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Management anticipates rectifying these deficits with additional public and private offerings. Also, the Company is evaluating certain cash flow improvement measures including, consolidating costs with the acquired entities, the purchase of vehicles to reduce purchased transportation, and repricing contracts with USPS. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts. Further, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, USPS accounted for substantially all of the Company’s total consolidated revenues. The loss of USPS as a customer or a significant reduction in the Company’s relationship with USPS would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

To meet its current and future obligations, the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan during 2019:

 

  Management is working with related party debt holders and equipment lenders to extend or convert existing debt. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

  During May 2019, the Company completed a private equity placement for approximately $11.4 million. The funds were used in operations and acquisition of companies.

 

  During September 2019, the Company completed a financing for approximately $24.5 million. Substantially all of the funds from the financing were used to complete the Ritter acquisition as discussed in Note 13.

 

The cash balance as of June 30, 2019 was $7,564,504. The cash balance, combined with funding received from the debt transactions occurring subsequent to June 30, 2019 (see Note 13 – Subsequent Events), provides the Company sufficient liquidity to cover the negative cash flows generated from operations through the second quarter of 2020 Management is in the process of identifying sources of capital through debt refinancing and equity investments through one or more private placements.

 

Seasonality

 

Results of operations generally follow seasonal patterns in the transportation industry. Freight volumes in the first quarter are typically lower due to less consumer demand, consumers reducing shipments following the holiday season, and inclement weather. At the same time, operating costs generally increase, and tractor productivity decreases during the winter months due to decreased fuel efficiency, increased cold weather-related equipment maintenance and repairs, and increased insurance claims and costs due to higher accident frequency from harsh weather. Combined, these factors typically result in lower operating profitability as compared to other periods. Further, beginning in the latter half of the third quarter and continuing into the fourth quarter, the Company typically experiences surges pertaining to online holiday shopping, the length of the holiday season (shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas), and holiday surge pricing on USPS contracts.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EVO, Inc. and its subsidiaries, JB Lease, Ursa, Sheehy, Graham, Leasing, Titan, Thunder Ridge, and EAF; Titan’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Titan El Toro, LLC, Titan Diamond Bar, LLC, and Titan Blaine LLC; Thunder Ridge’s wholly owned subsidiary, Thunder Ridge Logistics, LLC; and EAF’s wholly owned subsidiary, EVO CNG, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to interim financial reporting guidelines and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on May 30, 2019. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition; goodwill and long-lived intangible asset valuations; fixed-asset impairment assessments; debt discount; contingencies; valuations of stock consideration paid for acquisitions related to Ursa, JB Lease, and Sheehy; and going concern. These estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Pronouncement Adopted in 2019

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02 – Leases (ASC Topic 842), which established the new Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases, standard. The new standard requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities arising from both operating and financing leases on the balance sheet. For public business entities, the new standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Companies may apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 using a modified retrospective approach with an adjustment to retained earnings as of either the beginning of the current year (“ASC Topic 840 Comparative Approach”) or the beginning of the earliest period presented (“ASC Topic 842 Comparative Approach”).

 

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (ASC Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which addresses certain issues related to the implementation of ASC Topic 842, including, presentation on the statement of cash flows for sales type and direct financing leases, and transition disclosures related to ASC Topic 250. The transition disclosures related to ASC Topic 250 clarify that entities are not required to disclose the impacts of adopting ASC Topic 842 on net income or related per share amounts in both interim and annual reporting periods. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, but can be early adopted.

 

Adoption Method and Approach – The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-11, Leases (ASC Topic 842), on January 1, 2019, by applying the ASC Topic 840 Comparative Approach, resulting in the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to its operating and financing leases. Comparative information related to periods prior to January 1, 2019, continues to be reported under the legacy guidance in ASC Topic 840.

 

Practical Expedients – As permitted under ASU 2016-02 (and related ASUs), management elected to apply the following package of practical expedients:

 

  Lease Identification An entity need not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases.

 

  Lease Classification An entity need not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases (for example, all existing leases that were classified as operating leases in accordance with ASC Topic 840 are now classified as operating leases, and all existing leases that were classified as capital leases in accordance with ASC Topic 840 are now classified as finance leases).

 

  Initial Direct Costs An entity need not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Non-Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, to expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees and supersedes the guidance in Subtopic 505-50, Equity - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Under ASU 2018-07, equity-classified non-employee share-based payment awards are measured at the grant-date fair value on the grant date. The probability of satisfying performance conditions must be considered for equity-classified non-employee share-based payment awards with such conditions. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual or interim goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The guidance is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not plan early adoption of this update and does not expect the adoption of the update to materially change its current accounting methods; therefore, the Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. This new accounting standard will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. When effective, the Company does not anticipate that ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. This new accounting standard will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effects that the adoption of this guidance will have on its disclosures.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which requires an entity (customer) in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense. This ASU requires up-front implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (or hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to be amortized to hosting expense over the term of the arrangement, beginning when the module or component of the hosting arrangement is ready for its intended use. This new accounting standard will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard. 

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the 2018 condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2019 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained deficit.

 

Note 2 - Acquisitions

 

The acquisitions described below were each accounted for as business combinations, which require, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date on the balance sheet. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the assigned values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

EVO TRANSPORTATION & ENERGY SERVICES, INC.

 

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The Company expects the acquisitions to increase the scale of operations and improve margins due to combined revenues and operations, which will produce operational synergies with the CNG stations and the freight trucking services, which is the basis for the acquisition and comprises the resulting recording of goodwill. In addition, the acquisitions expand the Company’s geographic reach.

 

Sheehy

 

On January 4, 2019, but effective January 2, 2019, the Company acquired Sheehy. The Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests from the Sheehy stockholders in exchange for 2,240,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Sheehy is a trucking company based in Waterloo, Wisconsin, and was founded in 1968 to service multiple contracts with USPS dedicated to over-the-road transport of mail between cities throughout the Midwest. Sheehy also provides general freight contracting. With the acquisition, Sheehy became a wholly owned subsidiary of EVO, Inc. 

 

Under the Sheehy acquisition agreement, at any time from April 1, 2020, until October 31, 2020, the Sheehy stockholders may request the Company to net settle in cash any number of the 2,240,000 common shares from the acquisition with a fair market value of up to $1,200,000 (the “Put Option”). The fair value as of acquisition of the Put Option determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model was $58,129, calculated with a 1.83-year term; 40% volatility; 2.51%, discount rate, and the assumption of no dividends. The Company evaluates the fair value of the Put Option quarterly and for the six months ended June 30, 2019, determined there was no change in the fair value.

 

On April 7, 2020, the Sheehy stockholders notified the Company of its intent to exercise the Put Option requesting $1,200,000 in exchange for 2,240,000 shares of common stock by the establishment of a fair market value as set forth in the agreement.

 

On January 4, 2019, Sheehy Enterprises, Inc. (“SEI”), a related party and Sheehy entered into an equipment lease agreement with an effective date of January 2, 2019 (the “Equipment Lease”), whereby SEI agreed to lease to Sheehy certain truck and trailer equipment owned by SEI. The Company paid $400,000 to SEI as an initial payment. The Company agreed to pay SEI an amount equal to $83,333 per month for 48 months.

 

In connection with the Sheehy acquisition and the associated Lease Agreement, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Sheehy Note”) in the principal amount of $400,000 to SEI as an initial payment under the Lease Agreement. The Sheehy Note bears interest at the rate of 5.65% per annum and had an initial maturity date of March 3, 2019. The Sheehy Note provides for up to four automatic extensions of the maturity date of 30 days each, provided that the Sheehy Note is not in default as of the date of each extension. If the principal and accrued interest on the Sheehy Note are not repaid by the end of the final maturity date extension term, then the principal and accrued interest amount of the Sheehy Note will increase to $450,000 and the balance of the Sheehy Note will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate of $2.50 per share. As of the final maturity extension date, the principal amount of $400,000 was outstanding. In accordance with the terms of the Sheehy Note, the principal amount increased to $450,000. There also were intercompany receivables and payables due by and between EVO and certain entities owned by SEI shareholders (see Note 5 – Related Party Transactions – Due from Related Party). On November 18, 2019, the Company entered into an Intercompany Debt Repayment and Settlement Agreement (the “Intercompany Agreement”) by and between the Company, the stockholder, SEI and North American Dispatch Systems (“NADS”). Pursuant to this agreement, EVO assigned $402,058 of their outstanding receivable balance due from NADS as partial payment of the Sheehy Note. The remaining principal amount due, plus accrued interest on the Sheehy Note of $39,947 was paid in the form of 35,156 shares of EVO common stock. No gain on settlement of related party debt was recorded.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

As consideration for the Thunder Ridge shares, the Company issued a promissory note dated June 1, 2018 in the principal amount of $2,500,000 (the “TR Note”). The TR Note bears interest at 6% per year with a default interest rate of 9% per year and had an original maturity date of the earlier of (a) the date the Company raises $40,000,000 in public or private offerings of debt or equity; (b) December 31, 2018, or (c) termination of Billy (Trey) Peck’s (“Peck”) employment with the Company by the Company without cause or by Peck for good reason. The TR Note is secured by all of the assets of Thunder Ridge pursuant to a security agreement dated June 1, 2018 between the Company, Thunder Ridge, and Peck and is also secured by the Thunder Ridge Shares (“TR Shares”). On December 26, 2018, the Company and Peck entered into an amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “First Purchase Agreement Amendment”). The First Purchase Agreement Amendment extends the December 31, 2018 portion of the original maturity date to February 28, 2019. On February 28, 2019, the Company and Peck entered into another amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “Second Purchase Agreement Amendment”). The Second Purchase Agreement Amendment extends the December 31, 2018 portion of the original maturity date to April 30, 2019. On April 30, 2019, the Company and Peck entered into a fourth amendment to the Purchase Agreement (the “Fourth Purchase Agreement Amendment”). The Fourth Purchase Agreement Amendment extended the April 30, 2019 portion of the original maturity date to June 30, 2019. The TR Note called for monthly principal payments of approximately $14,000. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the outstanding balance was $2,224,359 and $2,386,778, respectively. On August 30, 2019, the note was extended until November 2022.

Note 4 - Segment Reporting

 

The Company’s two reportable segments are Trucking and CNG Fueling Stations.

 

Trucking. Trucking is comprised of domestic freight trucking and surface transportation services to the USPS, with the USPS generally granting four-year contracts through a bid process.

 

CNG Fueling Stations. The Company operates five CNG fueling stations located in California, Texas, Arizona, and Wisconsin. Revenue is derived from agreements with high-volume fleet operators. In most instances each station has a principal customer comprising a majority of the revenue.

 

In determining its reportable segments, the Company’s management focuses on financial information, such as operating revenue, operating expense categories, operating ratios, and operating income as well as on key operating statistics to make operating decisions.

 

The trucking segment includes $11,423,431 of goodwill in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Note 6 - Factoring

 

The Company entered into an accounts receivable factoring arrangement with a financial institution (the “Factor”), which has been extended to February 18, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company, from time to time, sells to the Factor certain of its accounts receivable balances on a recourse basis for credit-approved accounts. The Factor remits 95% of the contracted accounts receivable balance for a given month to the Company (the “Advance Amount”) with the remaining balance, less fees to be forwarded once the Factor collects the full accounts receivable balance from the customer.

 

For long-term contracts with credit worthy customers, the Factor may advance, at their discretion, unearned future contract amounts. Unearned advances are secured by all factored and non-factored long-term contract cash receipts, which are remitted directly to the Factor by the customer. Earned and unearned components included in Advances from factoring arrangement are as follows:

Financing costs are comprised of an interest rate of Prime plus 7.5% (13% at June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018) plus a factor fee of 0.25% of the face amount of the invoice factored based upon number of days the Advance Amount remains outstanding. Total interest and financing fees for factored receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were $528,947 and $133,331, respectively. The fees are included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Stock Options

 

On April 12, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the EVO Transportation and Energy Services, Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) pursuant to which a total of 4,250,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance to eligible employees, consultants, and directors of the Company. Further, on August 13, 2018, the Board of Directors approved the Company’s Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Amended 2018 Plan”), which amends and restates the Company’s 2018 Stock Incentive Plan. The Amended 2018 Plan increased options available for grant to 6,250,000. 

 

As of June 30, 2019, there were 1,430,750 shares reserved for grant. Subsequently, a total of 1,650,000 options were granted which resulted in the total number of options granted exceeding the number of options available under the Amended 2018 Plan. During February 2020, the Board of Directors approved an increase of the number of available options in the Stock Incentive Plan to a total of 9,250,000 options.

 

The Amended 2018 Plan provides for awards of non-statutory stock options, incentive stock options, and restrictive stock awards within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and stock purchase rights to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Amended 2018 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, which has the authority to select the individuals to whom awards will be granted and to determine whether and to what extent stock options and stock purchase rights are to be granted, the number of shares of common stock to be covered by each award, the vesting schedule of stock options (generally vest ratably over three years with one-quarter (1/4) of the options vest and become exercisable on the grant date) and all other terms and conditions of each award. Stock options have a maximum term of ten years, and it is the Company’s practice to grant options to employees with exercise prices equal to or greater than the estimated fair market value of its common stock.

 

The Board of Directors may suspend or terminate the Amended 2018 Plan or any portion thereof at any time, and may amend the Amended 2018 Plan from time to time in such respects as the Board of Directors may deem advisable in order that incentive awards under the Amended 2018 Plan will conform to any change in applicable laws or regulations or in any other respect the Board of Directors may deem to be in the best interests of the Company, provided, however, that amendments to the Amended 2018 Plan will not be effective without approval of the stockholders of the Company if stockholder approval of the amendment is then required pursuant to Section 422 of the Code or the rules of any stock exchange or NASDAQ or similar regulatory body. No termination, suspension or amendment of the Amended 2018 Plan may adversely affect any outstanding incentive award without the consent of the affected participant.

Restricted stock awards are made by the issuance to the participant of the actual shares represented by that grant. Any shares of restricted stock issued are registered in the name of the participant and bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to the award. Shares of restricted stock granted under the Amended 2018 Plan may not be sold, transferred, pledged, or assigned until the termination of the applicable period of restriction. After the last day of the period of restriction, shares of restricted stock become freely transferable by the participant. During the period of restriction, a participant holding shares of restricted stock granted under the Amended 2018 Plan may exercise full voting rights with respect to those shares, unless otherwise specified in the applicable award agreement. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, there were no shares of restricted stock awarded.

 

The fair value of each award is estimated on the date of grant. Stock option values are estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the option award, expected stock price volatility, and expected dividends. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. The expected option terms are calculated based on the “simplified” method for “plain vanilla” options due to the Company’s limited exercise information. The simplified method calculates the expected term as the average of the vesting term and the original contractual term of the options. Expected volatilities used in the valuation model are based on the selected comparable companies. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the option is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The valuation model assumes no dividends. There is no estimated forfeiture rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, the Company has recorded stock-based compensation expense of $172,524 and $383,223, respectively, associated with stock options. As of June 30, 2019, and 2018, the Company has estimated approximately $656,000 and $7,664,000 respectively, of future compensation costs related to the unvested portions of outstanding stock options. Options vest ratably over three years. One-quarter (1/4) of the options vest and become exercisable on the grant date. The remaining vest and become exercisable ratably on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of grant. As of June 30, 2019, and 2018, there was no intrinsic value to the stock options.

Warrants

 

The fair value of the warrants is estimated on the date of issuance using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the warrants, expected stock price volatility, and expected dividends. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. Expected volatilities used in the valuation model are based on the average volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free rate for the expected term of the warrant is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued 1,602,000 warrants associated with the Secured convertible promissory notes. The fair value of the warrants issued determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model was $747,223, calculated with a ten-year term; 65% volatility, 2.89%, 2.85%, or 3.00% discount rates; and the assumption of no dividends.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued 999,999 warrants contingent on continued employment. The warrants vest in three tranches of 333,333 warrants each year during 2019, 2020, and 2021. The fair value of the warrants issued, determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model, was $149,390, calculated with six-, seven-, and eight-year terms, respectively; 55%, 51%, and 53% volatility, respectively; 2.8%, 2.85%, and 2.87% discount rate, respectively, and the assumption of no dividends. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, the Company has recorded warrant-based compensation expense of $27,000 and $0, respectively, associated with the warrants.

Note 10 - Leases

 

The Company recorded a Right-of-Use Asset and Lease Liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of approximately $4 million upon adoption. The Sheehy and Ursa acquisitions increased the Right-of-Use Asset and Lease Liability by approximately $5.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had various obligations remaining under operating and finance lease arrangements related primarily to the rental of trucks and trailers, maintenance and support facilities, office space, and parking yards. Many of these leases include one or more options, at the Company’s discretion, to renew and extend the agreement beyond the current lease expiration date. These options are included in the calculation of the Company’s operating lease liability when it becomes reasonably certain the option will be exercised. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were no options included in the operating lease liability calculation. The Company’s lease obligations typically do not include options to purchase the leased property, nor do they contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, lease expense for month-to-month leases was approximately $3,934,000.

 

Right-of-use assets are summarized as follows:

 

Operating leases  $10,837,555 
Finance leases   715,041 
   $11,552,596 

 

When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments; however, the implicit rate in the lease is not readily determinable for all the leases. In such cases, the Company uses an estimate of the incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The Company used the factor borrowing rate.

Finance Leases

 

Finance lease right-of-use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the expected useful life or the lease term, and the carrying amount of the lease liability is adjusted to reflect interest expense, which is recorded in interest expense.

 

The Company is obligated under finance leases covering revenue equipment for a total of $828,680 and $0 as of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively. Amortization of assets held under the finance leases is included in depreciation and amortization expense. The weighted average interest rates for the finance leases at June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018 was 10.5% and 0%. As of June 30, 2019, the weighted-average remaining lease term for the Company’s outstanding financing lease obligations was 1.3 years.

 

Principal Maturities of the Finance Leases

 

The principal maturities on the finance leases are as follows:

 

2019 remainder  $238,302

Less current portion   (390,948)
Total  $437,732 

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s finance lease payments were approximately $240,000 with $21,000 of interest. The components of finance lease costs are included in short-term finance lease liability and interest expense. Cash paid for the finance leases was approximately $219,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and is included in financing activities on the statement of cash flows. Cash paid for finance lease interest was approximately $21,000 and is included in interest paid within supplemental cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019, was $323,347 and included in depreciation and amortization.

 

Operating Leases

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets are amortized over the lease term as a component of the straight-line payments and the calculated interest expense, all of which is included in rent expense, and the lease liability is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments. Operating lease costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease within operating supplies and expenses and equipment rent. As of June 30, 2019, the Company did not have any significant leases executed, but not yet commenced.

 

Operating lease expense and cash paid for amounts included in the present value of operating lease liabilities was $2,109,370 during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and is included in operating cash flows.

 

Variable lease costs of mileage and administrative fees for the six months ended June 30, 2019, were approximately $170,000 and included in equipment rent.

Captive Insurance

 

Prior to the acquisition, Sheehy was self-insured for certain insurance risks with a captive insurance company under SEI. Upon the acquisition of Sheehy from SEI in January 2019 (see Note 2 – Acquisitions – Sheehy for additional information related to the acquisition), the Company became a member of the captive and Sheehy was transferred to the EVO member account. As a member of the captive, the Company is required to maintain a security deposit. The security deposit requirement is calculated at the renewal date of March 1st each year and is based on the prior three years of premium experience. The security deposit may be satisfied with either cash and/or investment collateral held in the captive or with a letter of credit. The Company’s security deposit requirement for 2019 was $327,975, based on a single year of premium experience. SEI agreed to pledge excess cash and investments held in the captive under the SEI member account to satisfy the Company’s security deposit requirement for 2019. The Collateral Pledge Agreement between the Company and SEI expired on March 1, 2020, and the Company and SEI are in negotiation to extend the agreement. The Company will be responsible for providing sufficient collateral to satisfy the security deposit with the captive on expiration of the agreement. The Company is also responsible for providing any additional collateral that may requested by the captive. See Note 5 – Related Parties – Collateral Pledge Agreement for terms of the agreement.

  

Note 12 - Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined to be more likely than not that the benefit of such deferred tax asset will not be realized in future periods. Tax benefits of operating loss carryforwards are evaluated on an ongoing basis, including a review of historical and projected future operating results, the eligible carryforward period, and other circumstances. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation allowance on such assets would be reduced.

 

The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Once this threshold has been met, the Company’s measurement of its expected tax benefits is recognized in its financial statements. The Company accrues interest on unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Penalties, if incurred, would be recognized as a component of income tax expense.

Antara Financing Agreement

 

Concurrently with the Ritter Acquisition, the Company entered into a $24.5 million financing agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) among the Company, each subsidiary of the Company, various lenders from time to time party thereto, and Cortland Capital Market Services LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent. Pursuant to the Financing Agreement, the Company initially borrowed $22.4 million (the “Term Loan”) and borrowed the remaining $2.1 million during October 2019. All of the Company’s subsidiaries are guarantors under the Financing Agreement. The Term Loan is secured by all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including pledges of all equity in the Company’s subsidiaries and is not subject to registration rights. The Financing Agreement contains covenants that limit (i) the making of investments, (ii) the incurrence of additional indebtedness, (iii) the incurrence of liens, (iv) payments and asset transfers with restricted junior loan parties or subsidiaries, (v) transactions with shareholders and affiliates, (vi) asset dispositions and acquisitions, among others. The Term Loan bears interest at 12% per annum and has a maturity date of September 16, 2022. Until December 31, 2019, interest on the Term Loan will be paid in kind and capitalized as additional principal, and the Company has the option to pay interest on the capitalized interest in cash or in kind. After December 31, 2019, monthly interest payments will be due in cash, and all outstanding principal and interest will be due on the maturity date. The Term Loan may be prepaid at any time, subject to payment of a prepayment premium of (1) 7% for each early payments made or coming due on or prior to September 16, 2020, (2) after September 16, 2020, 5% for each early payments made or coming due on or prior to September 16, 2021, and (3) thereafter, no premium shall be due. Proceeds are to be used to (i) effect the Ritter Acquisition, (ii) to refinance and retire existing indebtedness, and (iii) general working capital needs.

Antara Warrants

 

Concurrently, and in connection with the Financing Agreement the Company issued two warrants (the “$0.01 Warrant” and the “$2.50 Warrant” and collectively, the “Antara Warrants”) to Antara Capital to purchase an aggregate of 4,375,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Antara Warrant Shares”). The $0.01 Antara Warrant grants Antara Capital the right to purchase up to 3,350,000 Antara Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $0.01 per share and is exercisable for five years from the date of issuance. The $2.50 Antara Warrant grants Antara Capital the right to purchase up to 1,025,000 Antara Warrant Shares at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, subject to adjustment for certain distributions, stock splits, and issuances of common stock, and is exercisable for ten years from the date of issuance. If the fair market value of the Antara Warrant Shares is greater than the related exercise price at the end of the exercise period (the Warrant Shares are “in the money”), then any outstanding Antara Warrants that are in the money will be automatically deemed to be exercised immediately prior to the end of the exercise period. Pursuant to the Antara Warrants, the Company granted Antara Capital preemptive rights to purchase its pro rata share, determined based on the number of shares held by Antara Capital or into which Antara Capital’s Antara Warrants are exercisable, of capital stock issued by the Company after the issuance date of the Antara Warrants, subject to certain excepted issuances.

Pursuant to the Antara Warrant 2020, the Company granted Antara Capital preemptive rights to purchase its pro rata share, determined based on the number of shares held by Antara Capital or into which warrants held by Antara Capital (including the Antara Warrant 2020) are exercisable, of capital stock issued by the Company after the issuance date of the Antara Warrants 2020, subject to certain excepted issuances.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to a liquidation preference of $3.00 per share of Series B Preferred Stock plus any accrued but unpaid dividends upon the liquidation of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Company at any time at a redemption price equal to $3.00 plus all accrued but unpaid dividends, and each holder of Series B Preferred Stock may cause the Company to redeem the holder’s Series B Preferred Stock at any time after March 23, 2025 at a redemption price equal to $3.00 plus all accrued but unpaid dividends.

 

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder or the Company at an initial conversion ratio of one share of Common Stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock. The initial conversion ratio shall be adjusted in the event of any stock splits, stock dividends and other recapitalizations. If the Company is the party electing to exercise the conversion right, it must provide five days’ prior notice to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock during which the holders of Series B Preferred Stock may elect to exercise their redemption right to receive cash in lieu of the Common Stock that would otherwise be issued by the Company in connection with the conversion. In addition, each share of Series B Preferred Stock will automatically convert to one share of Common Stock (i) if the closing price on all domestic securities exchanges on which the Common Stock may at the time be listed exceeds $3.00 per share for 90 consecutive trading days and the average daily trading volume of the Common Stock is at least 20,000 shares for that same period; (ii) immediately prior to closing a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) relating to an offer and sale of shares of Common Stock that generates gross proceeds of at least $25,000,000; or (iii) immediately prior to effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act covering shares of Common Stock sold in a private offering that generates gross proceeds of at least $25,000,000. If the automatic conversion of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to subpart (ii) or (iii) of the previous sentence occurs prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, then all dividends that would have accrued with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock for the period from the conversion date to the fifth anniversary of the issuance date will be deemed to automatically accrue and be treated as accrued and unpaid dividends on such Series B Preferred Stock as of immediately prior to conversion.

COVID-19

 

Beginning in March 2020, the U.S. and global economies have reacted negatively in response to worldwide concerns due to the economic impacts of COVID-19. These trends, including a potential economic downturn, and any potential resulting direct and indirect negative impact to the Company, cannot be determined, but as of the date of the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company is considered an essential business and has not experienced any significant negative impact due to COVID-19; however, the Company continues to monitor the situation. No fair value adjustments were recorded as of the balance sheet date, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation. Management’s judgment regarding the liquidity and financial condition of the Company, could change in the future. In addition, while the Company's results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition could be negatively impacted, the extent of the impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

 

Payment Protection Program

 

On April 16, 2020, the Company received $10,000,000 under the terms of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The amount of loan forgiveness can be up to the full principal amount of the loan and any accrued interest.

Background and Recent Developments

 

EVO Inc. is an emerging transportation operator and next generation supplier for the USPS. It offers flexible and efficient solutions through a combination of diesel and CNG trucks and tractors across 36 states with 51 USPS contracts. EVO Inc. also operates five strategically located CNG refueling stations in Jurupa Valley, CA; Lake Arlington, TX; Fort Worth, TX; Oak Creek, WI; Tolleson, AZ; and San Antonio, TX, plus a station operated by a third party that accommodate Class 8 trucks and trailers. EVO Inc. has identified a compelling opportunity in an evolving ecosystem of USPS transportation contractors, and we have refocused our corporate strategy to leverage our footprint of CNG stations with the approximately 200 CNG trucks and relationships with owner-operators to build a national fleet of haulers and in turn drive additional CNG sales to our company-owned stations.

 

The Company competitively bids on transportation contracts that detail the movement of mail between processing facilities, destination post offices and destination mailing addresses. Customer contracts are long term in nature with contract terms that are typically four-years in duration and often are renewed to the incumbent if appropriate service has been performed. Contracts are bid and performed in accordance with all contract requirements including, but not limited to Service Contract Act requirements, Department of Transportation (“DOT”) regulations (federal and state), and all other applicable local and state regulations.

 

Going Concern

 

As of June 30, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $34.5 million, stockholders’ deficit of approximately $9.7 million, and negative operating cash flows of $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Management anticipates rectifying these deficits with additional public and private offerings. Also, the Company is evaluating certain cash flow improvement measures including, consolidating costs with the acquired entities, the purchase of vehicles to reduce purchased transportation, and repricing contracts with USPS. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts. Further, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, USPS accounted for substantially all of the Company’s total consolidated revenues. The loss of USPS as a customer or a significant reduction in the Company’s relationship with USPS would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements within the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

To meet its current and future obligations, the Company has taken the following steps to capitalize the business and successfully achieve its business plan during 2019:

 

  Management is working with related party debt holders and equipment lenders to extend or convert existing debt. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

  During May 2019, the Company completed a private equity placement for approximately $11.4 million. The funds were used in operations and acquisition of companies.

 

  During September 2019, the Company completed a financing for approximately $24.5 million. Substantially all of the funds from the financing were used to complete the Ritter acquisition.

 

The cash balance as of June 30, 2019, was $7,564,504. The cash balance, combined with funding received from the debt transactions occurring subsequent to June 30, 2019, provides the Company sufficient liquidity to cover the negative cash flows generated from operations through the second quarter of 2020. Management is in the process of identifying sources of capital through debt refinancing and equity investments through one or more private placements.

Sources of Revenue

 

  Our CNG station revenue is derived predominately pursuant to contractual fuel purchase commitments. These contracts typically include a stand-ready obligation to supply natural gas daily. The CNG stations are also open to individual consumers. In addition to revenue earned from our customers, we may also earn alternative fuel tax credits through certain federal programs. These programs are generally short-term in nature and require legislation to be passed extending the term.

 

  Our USPS trucking operations generates revenue for our trucking segment from transportation services under multi-year contracts with the USPS, generally on a rate per mile basis that adjusts monthly for fuel pricing indexes.

 

  Our freight trucking operations generates revenue for our trucking segment by providing both irregular and dedicated route and cross-border transportation services of various products, goods, and materials for a diverse customer based.

 

  Our non-reportable segments include support services provided to our customers and independent contractors, including repair and maintenance shop services.

 

Results from Operations

 

Three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2018

 

Trucking sales were $36,124,463 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The three months ended June 30, 2018, represents one month of Thunder Ridge revenue of $1,976,932. The 2019 revenues include a full three months of revenue from three separate companies. Between June 1, 2018 and February 1, 2019, the Company had significant acquisitions of trucking companies operating USPS routes. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, Thunder Ridge had sales of approximately $16,100,000 with a loss of approximately ($1,666,000). Thunder Ridge’s June 2018 revenue was $2,000,000 with a loss of ($2,119,000). Sheehy and Ursa’s revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2019, was $5,600,000 and $14,000,000, with losses of ($1,600,000) and ($1,800,000), respectively.

 

Sales for the CNG stations were $326,330 and $376,224 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The decrease between years is from the Company experiencing a downward trend in sales over the past year due to trucking companies’ slow conversion from diesel power to CNG. Converting to CNG trucks is currently not a priority for companies because of the price compression between CNG and diesel fuel.

 

Operating expenses. CNG operating expense: We reclassified CNG operating expense in the statement of operations to mirror the trucking industry presentation norms as trucking now represents significantly all of our revenue. Costs formerly classified as CNG cost of sales have now been moved to the Operating Expense section with the label CNG expenses. This expense line is comprised of natural gas, outside services to manage the stations, electricity, federal excise tax, vendor use fuel tax and credit card fees. Natural gas was the largest expense for both periods at approximately $110,000, followed by $65,000 in expense during both 2018 and 2019 for the outside services, as a segment.

 

Interest expense. Interest expense related to the CNG segment decreased between the three months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, because the EVO CNG debt was transferred to EVO, Inc. at year end of 2018. Overall interest is consistent for the three months.

 

Warrant expense. The Company recognized warrant expense of $356,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and none during the three months ended June 30, 2019. Warrants were issued in connection with the issuance of stock and represents the estimated fair value calculated on the date of issuance of the warrants.

  

Six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2018

 

Revenue CNG. EVO Inc. has refocused its corporate strategy to leverage our footprint of CNG stations and relationships with owner-operators to build a national fleet of haulers primarily focused on servicing the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). While we expect the vast majority of our future sales growth in the trucking segment, our CNG stations will remain as a complementary part of our strategy. The CNG stations provide us with a cost effective fueling source for our own fleet and enable us to respond to the USPS’ preference for environmentally-friendly fuel alternatives in the contract bidding process. We continue to operate public and private CNG filling stations.

 

Revenue Trucking. The combination of the Company’s recent pivot into the trucking industry and acquisitions of Thunder Ridge, Sheehy, Ursa and JB Lease during 2018 and 2019, make many of the traditional year over-year variance comparisons irrelevant for this reporting period.

Trucking sales were $64,215,618 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Between June 1, 2018 and February 1, 2019, the Company had significant acquisitions of trucking companies operating USPS routes. The Company’s first acquisition was Thunder Ridge. At acquisition, which had 13 contracts over nine states. As of June 30, 2019, contracts have increased to 34. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, Thunder Ridge had sales of approximately $29,100,000 with a loss of approximately ($4,101,000) compared to approximately $12,300,000 in revenue with a loss of approximately ($900,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2018. With this exponential growth, Thunder Ridge has been challenged to create the infrastructure to manage operations efficiently and effectively. To reduce expenses, Thunder Ridge is combining general and administrative functions with Sheehy and EVO Inc. In addition, Thunder Ridge is installing software to economically manage routes and is working towards financing the purchase of trucks and trailers, rather than incur rent expense on equipment. Lastly, management is working with the USPS to reprice contracts, with no assurance that the Company will be able to renegotiate the USPS contract.

 

The second acquisition was Sheehy on January 2, 2019. Sheehy has 16 contracts in over 18 states. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, Sheehy had sales of approximately, $10,700,000 with a loss of approximately ($3,600,000). Sales decreased in the first half of the year due to less freight revenue, and with the greatest revenue decrease coming from Sheehy intentionally not renewing three contracts of approximately $1,600,000, that were unprofitable. Payroll expenses increased over the past six months. For comparison in the first six months of 2018 to 2019, wages increased from Sheehy instituting a bonus program for drivers. The bonus program provides to incentivize driver’s performance and helps reduce driver turnover. In addition, full time equivalent employees increased from prior year by 15 drivers. The increase in driver’s payroll in turn decreases the expense of subcontracted labor. Additionally, the increase in payroll is from the three management employees paid out of Sheehy beginning in 2019. In the past their salaries, payroll taxes and benefits were paid through management fees. Their combined salaries for the first half of 2019 was approximately $300,000. This increase in payroll generated a decrease in general and administrative expenses through the elimination of management fees. Lastly, the increase in maintenance and repairs was caused by the weather. The 2019 winter in the Midwest was below average in temperature and received excessive snow, and the inclement conditions caused an increase in repairs and maintenance.

 

The third acquisition was Ursa and JB Lease on February 1, 2019. For the five months ended June 30, 2019, Ursa and JB Lease had sales of approximately $23,000,000 with a loss of just over ($2,752,000). Revenue was consistent for the five months in 2019 and 2018, the increase in expenses had the greatest impact in the net loss experienced in 2019. Purchased transportation increased over $1,100,000 from a shortage of drivers. The combined increase in equipment rent and repairs and maintenance of almost $1,000,000 was weather related from a harsh winter and an aging fleet. The down time of the trucks increased the equipment rent. Operating expenses increased incrementally between years for approximately $360,000. The increase of depreciation expense correlates to the increase in the value of the fixed assets. At acquisition, the fixed assets were appraised and determined to be undervalued by approximately $6.4 million. Ursa historically operated at a loss for the first nine months of the year and with peak shipping in the fourth quarter from holidays typically, ended the year at break even. Ursa installed logistics software during July 2019 to economically manage routes and expects to see a saving on costs in both payroll and subcontracts.

 

Variance commentary of the CNG segment, which operated in the three months ended 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

 

CNG revenue: Sales for the CNG stations were $611,221 and $697,020 for the first six months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease between years is from the Company experiencing a downward trend in sales over the past year due to trucking companies’ slow conversion from diesel power to CGN. Converting to CNG trucks is currently not a priority for companies because of the price compression between CNG and diesel fuel.

 

Operating expenses. CNG operating expense: We changed the format of the statement of operations to mirror the trucking industry presentation norms as trucking now represents significantly all of our revenue. Costs formerly classified as CNG cost of sales have now been moved to the Operating Expense section with the label CNG expenses. This expense line is comprised of natural gas, electricity, federal excise tax, vendor use fuel tax and credit card fees. CNG operating expenses increased for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 because of the adjustment for take or pay contracts of $450,000. The contracts expired during the second and third quarters of 2019. With the declining sales, the Company recognized the liability in the first quarter of 2019.

 

Interest expense. Interest expense related to the CNG segment decreased between the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, because the junior and senior debt accounted for approximately $40,000 of interest expense in the first quarter of 2018.

 

Gain on extinguishment of related party interest. As a result of the conversion of related party debt during April 2018, the Company realized a gain on the extinguishment of related party interest.

Gain on extinguishment of liabilities. We recorded a gain in the six months ended June 30, 2018 of approximately $657,498 on the extinguishment of accounts payable that no longer represented our obligation or that management negotiated a settlement. The liabilities consisted of professional fees and other expenses.

 

We had cash of $7,564,504 and $1,630,022 at June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, net cash used in operations was ($14,603,855) and ($2,067,663), respectively. We historically funded our operating losses primarily from the issuance of equity, convertible notes payable, stockholder debt and SBA debt.

 

Changes in Liquidity

 

Cash. Cash was $7,564,504 at June 30, 2019, compared to $1,630,022 at December 31, 2018. The increase is primarily attributable to equity investments of $11.4 million and draws through the factoring agreement.

 

Operating Activities. Net cash used in operations was ($14,603,855) and ($2,067,663) as of June 30, 2019, and 2018, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, we had net loss of ($14,444,700) and ($2,545,820), respectively. Significant changes in working capital during these periods included:

 

  Payments on accounts payable and accrued liabilities generated from increased borrowing on the factoring and from the cash contributed through the equity investments.

  

  The non-cash transaction included the add back from depreciation and amortization of $2,758,115 in 2019 as opposed to $409,602 in 2018, along with add back of debt issuance costs and accretion of debt discount of $515,592 and $234,350, respectively.  The increase in depreciation and amortization expense is from the acquisitions and their related fixed assets.  Between December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, fixed assets increased three times.  The debt issuance costs are from the secured promissory notes issued in the third quarter of 2018.  

  

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing was $1,002,783 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The inflow of cash was from the acquisition of Ursa of $3,743,000 and offset by the outflow of $2,500,000 cash payment for JB Lease and $400,000 deposit to Sheehy for the leased trucks. The Company also received $186,000 in cash from a sale lease back transaction. There were no investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $19,535,554 and $2,197,096 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The Company received $9,428,285 from factoring. The Company began factoring accounts receivable with the acquisition of Thunder Ridge and expanded the relationship with Sheehy, Ursa and JB Lease. The Company paid down JB Lease long-term debt through new debt totaling $4,901,690. In addition to paying down the JB Lease debt, the Company made monthly principal payments on the SBA loan and Thunder Ridge notes payable for a total of $5,691,988. The Company sold 4,560,000 shares of common stock for $11.4 million during the second quarter of 2019. The cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was from $2,500,000 sale of common stock offset by $84,048 in payment on the SBA loan and $250,000 payment on the working capital note.

 

Our future liquidity and capital requirements will be influenced by numerous factors, including the extent and duration of future operating losses, the level and timing of future sales and expenditures, working capital required to support our sales growth, the level of our outstanding indebtedness and principal and interest we are obligated to pay on our indebtedness, our capital expenditure requirements (which consist primarily of the purchase of trucks and trailers and station construction), the continuing acceptance of our products and service in the marketplace, competing technologies, market and regulatory developments, ongoing facility requirements, and potential strategic transactions.

Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2019 due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on May 30, 2019. Notwithstanding the material weaknesses that existed as of December 31, 2018, management believes that the financial statements included in this report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management intends to implement certain remediation steps to address the material weaknesses described above as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. However, management has not yet implemented those remediation steps and expects remediation efforts to continue through the remainder of fiscal year 2020.
