NOTE 1 - INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all normal adjustments and disclosures necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2020, the results of its operations for the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and its cash flows for the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes included in the fiscal 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Financial information as of June 30, 2020 has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation:

A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company’s fiscal 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Significant changes to our accounting policies as a result of adopting Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), “Leases (Topic 842)” (ASC 842) in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies the performance obligation in its customer contracts or purchase orders. Most of the Company’s products have a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is generally transferred at time of shipment when title and risk of ownership passes to the customer. For customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price and any discounts to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 90 days from the shipping date, depending on the terms with the customer. The Company offers standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations.

Installation is a separate performance obligation, except for the Company’s digital signage products. For digital signage products, installation is not a separate performance obligation as the product and installation is the combined item promised in digital signage contracts. The Company is not always responsible for installation of products it sells and has no post-installation responsibilities other than standard warranties.

A number of the Company's Graphics and select Lighting products are highly customized for specific customers. As a result, these customized products do not have an alternative use. For these products, the Company has a legal right to payment for performance to date and generally does not accept returns on these items. The measurement of performance is based upon cost plus a reasonable profit margin for work completed. Because there is no alternative use and there is a legal right to payment, the Company transfers control of the item as the item is being produced and therefore, recognizes revenue over time. The customized product types are as follows:

The Company also offers installation services for its Graphics and select Lighting products. Installation revenue is recognized over time as our customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided through the installation process.

For these customized products and installation services, revenue is recognized using a cost-based input method: recognizing revenue and gross profit as work is performed based on the relationship between the actual cost incurred and the total estimated cost for the contract.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates the revenue from contracts with customers by the timing of revenue recognition because the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, and timing of its revenue and cash flows. The table presents a reconciliation of the disaggregation by reportable segments.

Legacy products include lighting fixtures utilizing light sources other than LED technology and printed two- and three-dimensional graphic products. Turnkey services and other includes project management and installation services along with shipping and handling charges.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

New Accounting Pronouncements:

On July 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 using a modified-retrospective transition method, under which it elected not to adjust comparative periods. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the new guidance. In addition, the Company elected accounting policies to not record short-term leases on the balance sheet and to not separate lease and non-lease components.

The Company’s most significant leases are those related to certain manufacturing facilities along with a small office space. Besides these real estate leases, most other leases are insignificant and consist of leases related to a vehicle, forklifts and various office equipment. The adoption of the new lease standard resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets (ROU assets) of $10.4 million, lease liabilities of $10.8 million which includes the impact of existing deferred rents and tenant improvement allowances and a $0.4 million adjustment to retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheets as of July 1, 2019 for the Company’s real estate leases. The adoption of the standard resulted in no material impact to the consolidated statements of operations or consolidated statements of cash flow.

On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASC 326 or "CECL"), which amended the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Subsequent Events:

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements were filed.  No items were identified during this evaluation that required adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - SEGMENT REPORTING INFORMATION 

The accounting guidance on Segment Reporting establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information of those segments to be presented in financial statements. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or “CODM”) in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s two operating segments are Lighting and Graphics, with one executive team under the organizational structure reporting directly to the CODM with responsibilities for managing each segment. Corporate and Eliminations, which captures the Company’s corporate administrative activities, is also reported in the segment information.

The Lighting Segment includes outdoor and indoor lighting utilizing both traditional and LED light sources that have been fabricated and assembled for the Company’s markets, primarily petroleum / convenience stores, parking lot and garage markets, automotive dealerships, quick-service restaurants, grocery and pharmacy stores, and retail/national accounts. The Company serves these lighting product customers through the commercial, industrial, stock and flow, and renovation channels. The Lighting Segment also includes the design, engineering, and manufacturing of electronic circuit boards, assemblies and sub-assemblies which are sold directly to customers.

The Graphics Segment designs, manufactures and installs exterior and interior visual image elements such as traditional graphics, interior branding, electrical and architectural signage, active digital signage along with the management of media content related to digital signage and menu board systems that are either digital or print by design. These products are used in visual image programs in several markets including the petroleum / convenience store market, quick-service restaurant market, the grocery store and pharmacy markets, as well as customers with multi-site retail operations. The Graphics Segment implements, installs and provides program management services related to products sold by the Graphics Segment and by the Lighting Segment.

The Company’s corporate administration activities are reported in the Corporate and Eliminations line item.  These activities primarily include intercompany profit in inventory eliminations, expense related to certain corporate officers and support staff, the Company’s internal audit expenses, expense related to the Company’s Board of Directors, equity compensation expense for various equity awards granted to corporate administration employees, certain consulting expenses, investor relations activities, and a portion of the Company’s legal, auditing and professional fee expenses. Corporate identifiable assets primarily consist of cash, invested cash (if any), refundable income taxes (if any), and deferred income taxes.

There was no concentration of consolidated net sales in the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. There was no concentration of accounts receivable at September 30, 2020 or June 30, 2020. 

Summarized financial information for the Company’s operating segments is provided for the indicated periods and as of September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019:

The segment net sales reported above represent sales to external customers. Segment operating income, which is used in management’s evaluation of segment performance, represents net sales less all operating expenses. Identifiable assets are those assets used by each segment in its operations.

The Company records a 10% mark-up on intersegment revenues. Any intersegment profit in inventory is eliminated in consolidation. Intersegment revenues were eliminated in consolidation as follows:

The Company’s operations are located solely within North America. As a result, the geographic distribution of the Company’s net sales and long-lived assets originate within North America.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

The following table presents the amounts used to compute basic and diluted earnings per common share, as well as the effect of dilutive potential common shares on weighted average shares outstanding (in thousands, except per share data):

NOTE 5 - INVENTORIES

The following information is provided as of the dates indicated:

NOTE 6 - ACCRUED EXPENSES

The following information is provided as of the dates indicated:

NOTE 7 - GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed at least annually for possible impairment. The Company may first assess qualitative factors in order to determine if goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. If through the qualitative assessment it is determined that it is more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not impaired, no further testing is required. If it is determined more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are impaired, or if the Company elects not to first assess qualitative factors, the Company’s impairment testing continues with the estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of a market approach and an income (discounted cash flow) approach, at the reporting unit level. The estimation of the fair value of reporting unit requires significant management judgment with respect to revenue and expense growth rates, changes in working capital and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. The estimates of the fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment. The fair value measurements of the reporting units are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements as defined by ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements.” The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted future operating cash flows and could increase or decrease an impairment charge. Company management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as adverse business conditions, economic factors and technological change or competitive activities may signal that an asset has become impaired.

The Company identified its reporting units in conjunction with its annual goodwill impairment testing. The Company has a total of two reporting units that contain goodwill. There is one reporting unit within the Lighting Segment and one reporting unit within the Graphics Segment. The Company relies upon a number of factors, judgments and estimates when conducting its impairment testing including, but not limited to, the Company’s stock price, operating results, forecasts, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and judgments in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.

The following table presents information about the Company's goodwill as of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020:

The following table presents the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization by each major asset class:

The Company expects to record annual amortization expense as follows:

NOTE 8 - REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT

In February 2019, the Company amended its secured line of credit to a $75 million facility from a $100 million facility in order to better match its financing needs with an appropriate borrowing capacity. The line of credit expires in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Interest on the revolving line of credit is charged based upon an increment over the LIBOR rate as periodically determined, or at the bank’s base lending rate, at the Company’s option. The increment over the LIBOR borrowing rate, as periodically determined, fluctuates between 125 and 250 basis points depending upon the ratio of indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined in the line of credit agreement. The increment over LIBOR borrowing rate will be 125 basis points for the second quarter of fiscal 2021. The Company expects to seek additional provisions for alternative interest rates when certain interbank offered rates are no longer available. The fee on the unused balance of the $75 million committed line of credit is 20 basis points. Under the terms of this line of credit, the Company has agreed to a negative pledge of real estate assets and is required to comply with financial covenants that limit the ratio of indebtedness to EBITDA and require a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. As of September 30, 2020, there were no borrowings against the line of credit, and $75.0 million was available as of that date. Based on the terms of the line of credit and the maturity date, the debt has been classified as long term.

The Company is in compliance with all of its loan covenants as of September 30, 2020.

NOTE 9 - CASH DIVIDENDS

The Company paid cash dividends of $1.3 million in both the three months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019. Dividends on restricted stock units in the amount of $81,663 and $34,842 were accrued as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These dividends will be paid upon the vesting of the restricted stock units when shares are issued to the award recipients. In October 2020, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable November 17, 2020 to shareholders of record as of November 9, 2020. The indicated annual cash dividend rate is $0.20 per share.

NOTE 10 – EQUITY COMPENSATION

In November 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2019 Omnibus Award Plan (“2019 Omnibus Plan”). The purpose of the 2019 Omnibus Plan is to provide a means through which the Company may attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means by which directors, officers, and employees can acquire and maintain an equity interest in the Company. The number of shares that remain reserved for issuance under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is 2,922,194 as of September 30, 2020. The 2019 Omnibus Plan implements the use of a fungible share ratio that consumes 2.5 available shares for every full value share awarded by the Company as stock compensation. The 2019 Omnibus Plan allows for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance stock units (“PSUs”) and other stock-based awards.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company granted 318,406 non-qualified serviced-based and inducement stock options with an exercise price of $6.80 to $7.06, and 134,017 PSUs and 131,126 RSUs at a fair value of $6.80. Stock compensation expense was $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 11 - SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to various negotiations, customer bankruptcies, and legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. The Company provides reserves for these matters when a loss is probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not disclose a range of potential loss because the likelihood of such a loss is remote. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity.

The Company may occasionally issue a standby letter of credit in favor of third parties. As of September 30, 2020, there were no such standby letters of credit issued. In August 2020, the Company experienced a cybersecurity incident. There was minimal business interruption and immaterial net financial impact resulting from the incident. For details regarding this incident, see the risk factor on page 7 of the Company’s fiscal 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

NOTE 13 – SEVERANCE COSTS

The activity in the Company’s accrued severance liability is as follows for the periods indicated:

The $0.4 million severance reserve reported as of September 30, 2020 has been classified as a current liability and will be paid out over the next twelve months.

NOTE 14 – RESTRUCTURING COSTS

In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company sold its New Windsor, New York facility. The net proceeds from the sale were $12.3 million resulting in a gain of $4.8 million. The Company also incurred additional restructuring costs totaling $0.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 related to the closure of the New Windsor facility, which impacted both the Lighting and Graphics segment.

The following table presents information about restructuring costs for the periods indicated:

The following table presents a roll forward of the beginning and ending liability balances related to the restructuring costs:

NOTE 15 - LEASES

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities along with a small office space, a company vehicle, several forklifts, several small tooling items, and various items of office equipment. All but one of the Company’s leases are operating leases. Leases have a remaining term of one to five years some of which have an option to renew. The Company does not assume renewals in determining the lease term unless the renewals are deemed reasonably certain. The lease agreements do not contain any material residual guarantees or material variable lease payments.

The Company has periodically entered into short-term operating leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. The Company elected not to record these leases on the balance sheet. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the rent expense for these leases is immaterial.

The Company has certain leases that contain lease and non-lease components and has elected to utilize the practical expedient to account for these components together as a single lease component.

Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company used its incremental borrowing rate when determining the present value of lease payments. The adoption of the new lease standard resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets (ROU assets) of $10.4 million and lease liabilities of $10.8 million which includes the impact of existing deferred rents and tenant improvement allowances on the consolidated balance sheets as of July 1, 2019 for the Company’s real estate leases. The adoption of the new standard resulted in no material impact to the consolidated statements of operations or consolidated statements of cash flow.

NOTE 16 – INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate is based on expected income, statutory rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. For interim financial reporting, the Company estimates the annual income tax rate based on projected taxable income for the full year and records a quarterly income tax provision or benefit in accordance with the anticipated annual rate. The Company refines the estimates of the year's taxable income as new information becomes available, including actual year-to-date financial results. This continual estimation process often results in a change to the expected effective income tax rate for the year. When this occurs, the Company adjusts the income tax provision during the quarter in which the change in estimate occurs so that the year-to-date provision reflects the expected income tax rate. Significant judgment is required in determining the effective tax rate and in evaluating tax positions.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law in March 2020. The CARES Act allows the Company to carry back a federal net operating loss to prior tax years, offset taxable income in those earlier tax years, and obtain a refund of income taxes that were paid at a higher statutory tax rate. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the IRS issued Treasury Regulations resulting in an increase to the expected net operating loss that can be carried back and the Company recognized an additional tax benefit of $0.4 million.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company sold its New Windsor facility resulting in a book gain of $4.8 million. The Company was able to utilize a deferred tax asset of $0.9 million related to the sale of the facility.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Note About Forward-Looking Statements

This report includes estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements may appear throughout this report, including this section. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. We describe risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially in in our Annual Report on Form 10-K in the following sections: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” and “Risk Factors.” All of those risks and uncertainties are incorporated herein by reference. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of LSI Industries Inc. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020, and our financial statements and the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q).

Our condensed consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes and the “Safe Harbor” Statement, each as appearing earlier in this report, should be referred to in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic will likely continue to impact business activity across industries in the U.S. and worldwide. We remain committed to taking actions to address the health, safety and welfare of our employees, customers, agents and suppliers. The potential for additional outbreaks of COVID-19 in the U.S. and globally and the actions taken by governmental authorities in response to future resurgence are highly uncertain and unpredictable. Future developments such as these will determine the extent to which COVID-19 continues to impact our results of operations and financial conditions. See the risk factor captioned “Our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal 2021 and future periods may be adversely affected by the recent novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) outbreak or other outbreaks of infectious disease or similar public health threats and the resulting economic impact” in Item 1A, Risk Factors, included in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 for an additional discussion of risks related to COVID-19.

Summary of Consolidated Results

Net sales of $70.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $18.7 million or 21% as compared to net sales of $88.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net sales were unfavorably influenced by decreased net sales of the Lighting Segment (a decrease of $17.8 million or 28%) and decreased net sales of the Graphics Segment (a decrease of $0.9 million or 4%).

Operating income of $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 represents a $4.6 million decrease from operating income of $6.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019. The $4.6 million decrease from fiscal 2020 was impacted by the sale of the New Windsor, New York facility in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 which favorably resulted in a pre-tax gain of $4.8 million. When the impact of the sale of the New Windsor facility, other restructuring and plant closure costs and stock compensation expense are removed from the operating results, adjusted operating income, a Non-GAAP measure, was $2.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $2.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2019. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

We continue to maintain a strong balance sheet with a cash balance of $9.5 million and no long-term debt as of September 30, 2020. We believe that our liquidity position is adequate to meet our projected needs in the reasonably foreseeable future.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe it is appropriate to evaluate our performance after making adjustments to the as-reported U.S. GAAP operating income, net income, and earnings per share. Adjusted operating income, net income and earnings per share, which exclude the impact of restructuring and plant closure costs (gains) and stock compensation expense are Non-GAAP financial measures. Also included below are Non-GAAP financial measures including Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA), Free Cash Flow and Net Debt. We believe that these adjusted supplemental measures are useful in assessing the operating performance of our business. These supplemental measures are used by our management, including our chief operating decision maker, to evaluate business results. Although the impacts of some of these items have been recognized in prior periods and could recur in future periods, we exclude these items because they provide greater comparability and enhanced visibility into our results of operations. Below is a reconciliation of these Non-GAAP measures to operating income, net income, and earnings per share for the periods indicated along with the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow and Net Debt.
