MEDIFAST, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Medifast, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim reporting and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and notes that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included and management believes the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2019 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (“2019 Form 10-K”).

Presentation of Financial Statements - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein include the accounts of Medifast, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Reclassification - Certain amounts reported for prior periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation. No reclassification in the condensed consolidated financial statements had a material impact on the presentation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2020

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), which addresses the accounting for implementation costs associated with a hosted service. The standard provides amendments to align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal use software license).

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-15. The Company capitalized $1.9 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 as a result of adoption, principally related to the configuration and development of the Company’s new hosted enterprise resource planning tool (“ERP”). The Company capitalized $2.6 million in total for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial InstrumentsCredit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which institutes a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments that are not measured at fair value. On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13. There was no material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements –Pending Adoption

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The standard eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The standard also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill and allocating consolidated income taxes to separate financial statements of entities not subject to income tax. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the Company must apply certain aspects of this standard retrospectively for all periods presented while other aspects are applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Management has determined the effect that the provisions of ASU 2019-12 will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements is immaterial. 

2. INVENTORIES

Inventories consist principally of packaged meal replacements held in the Company’s warehouses. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, utilizing the first-in, first-out method. The cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packaging supplies, direct and indirect labor and other indirect manufacturing costs. On a quarterly basis, management reviews inventory for unsalable or obsolete inventory.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) computations are calculated utilizing the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted EPS is calculated utilizing the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding adjusted for the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents.

The calculation of diluted EPS excluded 934 and 611 antidilutive options outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 965 and 752 antidilutive options outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The calculation of diluted EPS also excluded 5,774 and 350 antidilutive restricted stock awards for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 10,626 and 705 antidilutive restricted stock awards for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. EPS is computed independently for each of the periods presented above, and accordingly, the sum of the quarterly earnings per common share may not equal the year-to-date total computed.

4. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Options

The Company has issued non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees and nonemployee directors. The fair value of these options are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires estimates of the expected term of the option, the risk-free interest rate, the expected volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, and dividend yield. Options outstanding as of June 30, 2020, generally vest over a period of three years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price of these options ranges from $26.52 to $171.68. Due to the Company’s lack of option exercise history, the expected term is calculated using the simplified method defined as the midpoint between the vesting period and the contractual term of each option. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of grant that most closely corresponds to the expected term of the option. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the period of time equivalent to the expected term for each award. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not grant stock options.

5. LEASES AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases

The Company has operating leases for office and warehouse space and certain equipment. In certain of the Company’s lease agreements, the rental payments are adjusted periodically based on defined terms within the lease. The Company did not have any finance leases as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, or for the six-month periods then ended, respectively.

Our leases relating to office and warehouse space have terms of 36 months to 122 months. Our leases relating to equipment have lease terms of 60 to 203 months, with some of them having clauses relating to automatic renewal.

The Company’s warehouse agreement also contains non-lease components, in the form of payments towards variable logistics services and labor charges, which the Company is obligated to pay based on the services consumed by it. Such amounts are not included in the measurement of the lease liability but will be recognized as expense when they are incurred.

The operating lease expense was $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and was $1.7 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

7. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Certain financial assets and liabilities are accounted for at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value from the perspective of a market participant.

The following tables represent cash and the available-for-sale securities adjusted cost, gross unrealized losses and fair value by significant investment category recorded as cash and cash equivalents or investment securities (in thousands):

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

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains information that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will,” and similar expressions, which are not historical in nature, identify forward-looking statements. However, the absence of these words or expressions does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, including statements relating to future operating results, are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in our 2019 Form 10-K, the Form 10-Q for the Quarter ended March 31, 2020 and this Form 10-Q and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere herein.

Overview

Medifast is the company behind one of the fastest-growing health and wellness communities called OPTAVIA®, which offers Lifelong Transformation, One Healthy Habit at a Time®. Reflecting the success of its approach to health and wellness for its clients, Medifast has consistently grown revenue ahead of peers and competitors. Of equal importance, our business model is expected to deliver long-term growth. Medifast has redefined direct selling by combining the best aspects of the model, while eliminating those dimensions that have typically challenged other companies. Medifast is often compared to diet and weight loss-only companies or to multi-level marketing companies, but our model is very different. The Company supports clients through independent OPTAVIA Coaches, majority of whom were clients first. 

Our operations are conducted through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., OPTAVIA LLC, Jason Enterprises, Inc., Jason Properties, LLC, Medifast Franchise Systems, Inc., Medifast Nutrition, Inc., Seven Crondall Associates, LLC, Corporate Events, Inc., OPTAVIA (Hong Kong) Limited, OPTAVIA (Singapore) PTE. LTD and OPTAVIA Health Consultation (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.

OPTAVIA is a highly effective lifestyle solution for people for whom diets alone have failed. Habits of Health®, the approach developed by OPTAVIA Co-founder and independent OPTAVIA Coach, Dr. Wayne Scott Andersen, combines clinically proven plans with scientifically developed products and the ongoing support of Coaches. We sell a variety of weight loss, weight management and healthy living products all based on our proprietary formulas under the Medifast®, OPTAVIA, Thrive by Medifast, Optimal Health by Take Shape for Life, and Flavors of Home® brands. Our product line includes more than 165 consumable options, including, but not limited to, bars, bites, pretzels, puffs, cereal crunch, drinks, hearty choices, oatmeal, pancakes, puddings, soft serve, shakes, smoothies, soft bakes, and soups. The Thrive by Medifast and Optimal Health by Take Shape for Life lines include a variety of specially formulated bars, shakes, and smoothies for those who are maintaining their weight for long-term healthy living. We identify opportunities to expand our product line by regularly surveying our clients and studying industry and consumer trends. This allows us to introduce new, high quality products that meet consumer demand.

Table of Contents

Our nutritional products are formulated with high-quality ingredients. Products include individually portioned, calorie- and carbohydrate-controlled meal replacements that share a similar nutritional footprint and provide a balance of protein and good carbohydrates. Our meal replacements are also fortified to contain vitamins and minerals, as well as other nutrients essential for good health. We offer our OPTAVIA clients exclusive OPTAVIA-branded nutritional products, or “Fuelings,” and also offer a variety of other weight loss, weight management, and healthy living products under other brands. OPTAVIA Fuelings come in a variety of flavors that appeal to a broad variety of tastes. Our products are nutrient-dense, portion-controlled, nutritionally interchangeable and simple to use.

OPTAVIA encompasses our community of OPTAVIA Coaches, our OPTAVIA health and wellness programs, and our proprietary OPTAVIA-branded products. The OPTAVIA integrated coaching model is centered around providing focused, individualized attention to our clients. Our OPTAVIA Coaches provide the support and encouragement for clients to successfully learn and adopt a more healthy lifestyle. This clinically-proven plan translates into better client results when compared to programs that leave individuals to adopt and maintain healthy habits on their own. Our clients receive personalized attention from our OPTAVIA Coaches who share, educate, motivate and pass along their passion for healthy living. We believe this personal, direct-sales and service strategy is optimal for activating and supporting our clients. In a clinical study published in Obesity Science and Practice in 2018, the OPTAVIA model’s effectiveness was validated when its meal plan was combined with education and support from OPTAVIA Coaches.

Our OPTAVIA Coaches are independent contractors, not employees, who support our clients and market our products and services primarily through word of mouth, email and via social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Zoom. As direct-sales entrepreneurs, OPTAVIA Coaches market our products to friends, family and other acquaintances with whom they have established strong relationships.

The entrepreneurial success of our OPTAVIA Coaches is the key to our success. We are focused on scaling our OPTAVIA Integrated Coaching Model by offering economic incentives that are attractive to independent entrepreneurs and reflective of the new “gig economy.” Our successful clients frequently become enthusiastic health and wellness advocates themselves and choose to become OPTAVIA Coaches. This process of clients becoming OPTAVIA Coaches underpins our growth.

As we previously disclosed, global expansion is an important component of our long-term growth strategy. In July 2019, we commenced our international operations, entering into the Asia Pacific markets of Hong Kong and Singapore. The Company oursources a distribution center in Hong Kong to give the Company adequate product distribution capacity for the foreseeable future. Our decision to enter these markets was based on industry market research that reflects a dynamic shift in how health care is being prioritized and consumed in those countries.

COVID-19 Update

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was identified in Asia. Over the next several months, COVID-19 quickly spread across the world. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a worldwide pandemic. As of June 30, 2020, the virus continues to spread, infecting more than 10 million people worldwide, and impacting worldwide economic activity.  No vaccine is currently available. Many governments implemented policies intended to stop or slow the further spread of the disease, such as social distancing and shelter-in-place orders, resulting in the temporary closure of schools and non-essential businesses, and these measures remain in place and may continue for a significant period of time.  Because the Company sells products that are essential to the daily lives of consumers, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact to our consolidated operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020.  

While the duration and severity of this COVID-19 pandemic is uncertain, the extent to which the pandemic ultimately impacts the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity may differ from management’s current estimates due to inherent uncertainties regarding the duration and further spread of the outbreak, its severity, government actions taken to contain the virus or treat its impact, changes in consumer behavior resulting from the pandemic and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. These

15

Table of Contents

uncertainties make it challenging for our management to estimate our future business performance. However, we continue to actively monitor the impact of COVID-19 and related developments on our business.

Although the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business operations in multiple ways, our manufacturing facility remains fully operational to date and we have not experienced any meaningful disruption to our world-wide supply chain.  Additionally, nutritional supplements and health foods have been designated critical/essential infrastructure in the U.S. and, as such, we have continued to actively manufacture and distribute our products in our markets around the world.  While our manufacturing and distribution employees continue to work on site, they are following additional health and safety guidelines. In response to the public health crisis posed by COVID-19, in March 2020 we took numerous actions, including:

successfully implementing a work-from-home plan for all non-essential employees to comply with guidelines from government and health officials;
changing this year’s OPTAVIA convention from a live event in July to a virtual event;
employing incentives and promotions to help OPTAVIA Coaches adjust to the adverse effect of overall economic conditions and the nationwide actions taken to control the spread of the virus;
providing additional health and safety precautions in our headquarters, manufacturing and distribution centers, including use of personal protective equipment and frequent sanitization;
process controls in relation to social distancing, visitors, travel and quarantine

The Company’s priorities during the COVID-19 pandemic are protecting the health and safety of our employees and their families, OPTAVIA Coaches; maximizing the availability of products that help consumers with their needs; and the use of our employees’ talents and our resources to help society meet and overcome the current challenges. The Company will continue to proactively respond to the situation and may take further actions that alter the Company’s business operations as may be required by governmental authorities, or that the Company determines are in the best interests of its employees, OPTAVIA Coaches and consumers.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management develops, and changes periodically, these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The total number of active earning OPTAVIA Coaches for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased to 36,500 from 30,600 for the corresponding period in 2019, an increase of 19.3%.

This increase in revenue for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020 resulted from business initiatives which drove more clients to be on our plans, aided by the ongoing transition of clients to higher priced OPTAVIA-branded products. OPTAVIA-branded products represented 83% of consumable units sold for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 75% for the corresponding period in 2019 and 81% of consumable units sold for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 74% for the corresponding period in 2019.

The increase in cost of sales was primarily driven by an increase in product sales.

Gross profit: For the three months ended June 30, 2020, gross profit increased $18.6 million, or 13.2%, to $159.3 million from the corresponding period in 2019.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, gross profit increased $28.7 million, or 10.8%, to $294.5 million from the corresponding period in 2019. As a percentage of sales, gross margin decreased 140 basis points to 73.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from 75.3% for the corresponding period in 2019.The decrease in gross margin percentage for the quarter and year-to-date periods was primarily the result of promotional activity as well as higher production costs in 2020.

SG&A expenses included $1.1 million and $1.2 million in R&D costs for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses were 61.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 60.6% for the corresponding period in 2019. The $17.8 million and $29.1 million increases in SG&A for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020 were primarily due to higher OPTAVIA commission expense as a result of our growth in OPTAVIA sales, incremental professional service costs in connection with the Schedule 13D filing and additional coach incentives. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A expenses increased $16.4 million to $129.8 million and Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A as a percentage of revenue decreased 160 basis points year-over-year to 59.0%.  Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A excludes expenses in connection with the Schedule 13D filing of $1.2 million and severance related costs of $0.2 million resulting from organizational change with the Company's Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A expenses increased $22.1 million to $235.9 million and Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A as a percentage of revenue decreased 140 basis points year-over-year to 59.2%.  Non-GAAP adjusted SG&A excludes expenses in connection with the Schedule 13D filing of $5.8 million and severance related costs of $1.2 million resulting from organizational change with the Company's CFO.

OPTAVIA commission expense, which is variable expense, increased $14.0 million, or 18.0%, to $92.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $78.0 million for the corresponding period in 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, OPTAVIA commission expense increased $19.8 million, or 13.5%, to $166.3 million from $146.5 million for the corresponding period in 2019. The increase was primarily the result of increased product sales. As OPTAVIA revenue increased as a portion of the Company’s total sales mix, the commission rate as a percentage of revenue increased 10 basis points to 41.8% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 41.7% for the second quarter last year and increased 20 basis points to 41.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 41.5% for the corresponding period in 2019. This is an outcome of the success we are experiencing with our OPTAVIA integrated coach model.

Income from operations: For the three months ended June 30, 2020, income from operations increased $0.7 million to $28.1 million from $27.4 million for the corresponding period in 2019 primarily as a result of increased gross profits partially offset by increased SG&A expenses. Income from operations as a percentage of sales was 12.8% and 14.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, income from operations decreased $0.5 million to $51.6 million from $52.1 million for the corresponding period in 2019 primarily as a result of increased SG&A expenses partially offset by increased gross profits. Income from operations as a percentage of sales was 13.0% and 14.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations increased $2.2 million to $29.5 million and Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased 120 basis points year-over-year to 13.4%. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations increased $6.6 million to $58.7 million and Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations as a percentage of revenue decreased 10 basis points year-over-year to 14.7%.

Other income: For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, other income (including interest income), was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, other income (including interest income), was $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Income from operations before income taxes: Income from operations before income taxes was $28.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $27.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of $0.4 million. Income from operations before income taxes as a percentage of sales decreased to 12.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from 14.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Income from operations before income taxes was $51.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $52.8 million for the six months

ended June 30, 2019. Income from operations before income taxes as a percentage of sales decreased to 13.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from 15.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Provision for income tax: For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $6.2 million in income tax expense, an effective rate of 22.1%, as compared to $6.4 million in income tax expense, an effective rate of 23.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by a decrease in state income tax rate, and an increase in tax benefit of stock compensation partially offset by a decrease in R&D tax credit. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $11.4 million in income tax expense, an effective rate of 22.0%, as compared to $10.7 million in income tax expense, an effective rate of 20.2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The effective tax rate was negatively impacted by an increase in state income tax rate and a decrease in tax benefit of stock compensation.

Net income: Net income was $21.9 million and $40.4 million, or $1.86 and $3.42 per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $21.4 million and $42.1 million, or $1.75 and $3.45 per diluted share, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2019. The period-over-period changes were driven by the factors described above in the explanations from operations. Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $23.1 million and $45.9 million, or $1.96 and $3.89 per diluted share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results, we disclose various Non-GAAP financial measures in our quarterly earnings press release and other public disclosures. The following GAAP financial measures have been presented on an as adjusted basis: SG&A expenses, income from operations, net income and diluted earnings per share. Each of these as Non-GAAP financial measures excludes the impact of certain amounts as further identified below that the Company believes are not indicative of its core ongoing operational performance. A reconciliation of each of these Non-GAAP financial measures to its most comparable GAAP financial measure is included below. These Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures.

 

We use these Non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations because we believe they provide useful supplemental information regarding the Company’s on-going economic performance. We have chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform more meaningful comparisons of operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of on-going operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had stockholders’ equity of $116.7 million and working capital of $84.6 million at June 30, 2020 as compared with $104.8 million and $74.8 million at December 31, 2019, respectively. The $11.9 million net increase in stockholders’ equity reflects $40.4 million in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 offset by $5.0 million spent on repurchases of common stock, and $26.5 million for declared dividends paid to holders of the Company’s common stock as well as the other equity transactions described in the “Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity” included in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. The Company declared a dividend of $13.4 million, or $1.13 per share, to common stockholders as of June 30, 2020 that will be paid in the third quarter of 2020. While we intend to continue the dividend program and believe we will have sufficient liquidity to do so, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to continue to declare and pay dividends. The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities increased from $92.7 million at December 31, 2019 to $145.4 million at June 30, 2020.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $37.1 million to $84.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $47.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as a result of a $39.9 million increase in operating assets and liabilities partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in net income.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This change resulted from a $6.4 million decrease in cash used in capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from the corresponding period in 2019 partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in sale and maturities of investment securities.

Net cash used in financing activities increased $3.1 million to $30.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $27.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. This increase was due to a $8.8 million increase in cash dividends paid to stockholders partially offset by a $5.0 million decrease in stock repurchases.

In pursuing its business strategy, the Company may require additional cash for operating and investing activities. The Company expects future cash requirements, if any, to be funded from operating cash flow and financing activities.

The Company evaluates acquisitions from time to time as presented.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and a decline in the stock market. The Company does not enter into derivatives, foreign exchange transactions or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and market pricing impacting our investment portfolio. Its current investment policy is to maintain an investment portfolio consisting of municipal bonds, U.S. money market securities, and high-grade corporate securities, directly or through managed funds. Its cash is deposited in and invested through highly rated financial institutions in North America. Its marketable securities are subject to interest rate risk and market pricing risk and will fall in value if market interest rates increase or if market pricing decreases. If market interest rates were to increase and market pricing were to decrease immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels at June 30, 2020, the Company estimates that the fair value of its investment portfolio would decline by an immaterial amount and therefore it would not expect its operating results or cash flows to be affected to any significant degree by the effect of a change in market conditions on our investments.

There have been no material changes to our market risk exposure since December 31, 2019.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of June 30, 2020. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and on a timely basis. Based on this evaluation performed in accordance with the criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, our management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We rely extensively on information systems and technology to manage our business and summarize operating results. We have completed the implementation of a new global ERP system in the second quarter of 2020, which replaces our existing operating and financial systems. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain the Company’s financial records, enhance operational functionality and provide timely information to the Company’s management team related to

the operation of the business. The transition did not result in significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is, from time to time, subject to a variety of litigation and similar proceedings that arise out of the ordinary course of its business. Based upon the Company’s experience, current information and applicable law, it does not believe that these proceedings and claims will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or liquidity. However, the results of legal actions cannot be predicted with certainty. Therefore, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be materially adversely affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more legal actions.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the 2019 Form 10-K and the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
