NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

 

NOTE 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

 Park City Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) provider. The Company’s technology helps companies to synchronize their systems with those of their trading partners to make more informed business decisions.

 

The Company’s services provide its customers with greater flexibility in sourcing products by enabling them to choose new suppliers and integrate them into their supply chain faster and more cost effectively, and we help them to more efficiently manage these relationships, enhancing revenue while lowering working capital, labor costs and waste. Our ReposiTrak food safety solutions also help reduce a company’s potential regulatory, legal, and criminal risk from its supply chain partners by providing a way for them to ensure these suppliers are compliant with food safety regulations, such as the Food Safety Modernization Act (“FSMA”).

 

The Company’s services are delivered though proprietary software products designed, developed, marketed and supported by the Company. These products are designed to provide transparency and facilitate improved business processes among all key constituents in the supply chain, starting with the retailer and moving back to suppliers and eventually to raw material providers. The Company provides cloud-based applications and services that address e-commerce, supply chain, and food safety and compliance activities. The principal customers for the Company's products are multi-store food retail store chains and their suppliers, branded food manufacturers, food wholesalers and distributors, and other food service businesses.

 

The Company has a hub and spoke business model. The Company is typically engaged by retailers and distributors (“Hubs”), which in turn have it engage their suppliers (“Spokes”) to sign up for its services. The bulk of the Company’s revenue is from recurring subscription payments from these suppliers often based on a monthly volume metric between the Hub and the Spoke. The Company also has a professional services business, which conducts customization, implementation, and training, for which revenue is recognized on a percentage-of-completion or pro rata over the life of the subscription, depending on the nature of the engagement. In a few instances, the Company will also sell its software in the form of a license.

 

The Company is incorporated in the state of Nevada. The Company has three principal subsidiaries: PC Group, Inc., a Utah corporation (98.76% owned), Park City Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (100% owned) and ReposiTrak, Inc., a Utah corporation (100% owned). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Our principal executive offices of the Company are located at 299 South Main Street, Suite 2225, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111. Our telephone number is (435) 645-2000. Our website address is http://www.parkcitygroup.com, and ReposiTrak’s website address is http://repositrak.com.

 

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

The interim financial information of the Company as of September 30, 2017 and for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 is unaudited, and the balance sheet as of June 30, 2017 is derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements. Accordingly, they omit or condense notes and certain other information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The accounting policies followed for quarterly financial reporting conform with the accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 to the Notes to Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2017. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information for the interim periods reported have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2017.

 

 

 

NOTE 2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The financial statements presented herein reflect the consolidated financial position of Park City Group, Inc. and subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that materially affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  The methods, estimates and judgments the Company uses in applying its most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results it reports in its financial statements.  The Securities and Exchange Commission has defined the most critical accounting policies as those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results, and require the Company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.  Based on this definition, the Company’s most critical accounting policies include:  income taxes, goodwill and other long-lived asset valuations, revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, and capitalization of software development costs.

  

Earnings Per Share

 

Basic net income per common share (“Basic EPS”) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share (“Diluted EPS”) reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue shares of common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income per common share.

 

 

The following table presents the components of the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated:

 

	Three Months Ended
	September 30,
	2017	2016
Numerator
Net income applicable to common shareholders	$213,690	$427,649

Warrants to purchase common stock	914,000	833,000

Net income per share

In July 2017, the Company issued 20,000 shares of Series B-1 Preferred in satisfaction of an accrued bonus payable to the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

  

NOTE 4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

(“FMI”), pursuant to which FMI provided certain executive management services to the Company, including designating Randall K. Fields to perform the functions of President and Chief Executive Officer for the Company. Mr. Fields also serves as the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors and controls FMI. The Company had payables of $149,063 and $77,628 to FMI at September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively, under this agreement.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. Historically, there has been a diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts/payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230. To reduce the existing diversity in practice, this update addresses multiple cash flow issues. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company notes that this guidance applies to its reporting requirements and will implement the new guidance accordingly.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 (ASC Topic 718), Stock Compensation—Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  The amendments in this ASU are intended to simplify several areas of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax consequences, classification on the consolidated statement of cash flows and treatment of forfeitures. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact, if any, of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (ASC Topic 842), Leases. The ASU amends a number of aspects of lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize operating leases with a term greater than one year on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability, measured at the present value of the lease payments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

There can be no assurance with regards to the timing or outcome of this strategic review. The Company does not intend to disclose or comment on developments related to this review unless and until the Board has approved a specific course of action, or otherwise determined that further disclosure is appropriate, or required.

  General and administrative expense was $1,135,770 and $1,023,150 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, an 11% increase.  This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in hosted software expense and professional fees associated with the execution of the Company’s plan to automate and optimize processes to accommodate growth.

  Depreciation and amortization expense was $158,803 and $116,580 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, an increase of 36%.  This increase is primarily due to the purchase of fixed assets to support the growth of the business.

This decrease is due to the Company’s decision to begin paying the dividend related to its Series B Preferred in cash as opposed to shares of Series B-1 Preferred. 

  

Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We believe our existing cash and short-term investments, together with funds generated from operations, are sufficient to fund operating and investment requirements for at least the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth and expansion of our sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of spending required for research and development efforts and the continuing market acceptance of our products.

 

	As of September 30,		Variance
	2017	2016	Dollars	Percent
Cash and cash equivalents	$14,885,786	$11,385,641	$3,500,145	31%

  

We have historically funded our operations with cash from operations, equity financings, and borrowings from the issuance of debt. Cash was $14,885,786 and $11,385,641 at September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  This $3,500,145 increase is principally the result of increased cash flows from operations, due to an increase of net income and stronger collections of accounts receivable.

	$1,055,517	$(121,709)

 

Noncash expense decreased by $29,219 in the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to September 30, 2016.  Noncash expense decreased as a result of a decrease in bad debt expense and stock compensation.

 

Net Cash Flows used in Investing Activities

 

	Three Months Ended  September 30,		Variance
	2017	2016	Dollars	Percent
Cash used in investing activities	$197,973	$15,800	$182,173	1153%

	2017	2016	Dollars	Percent
Cash (used in) provided by financing activities	$(25,764)	$79,762	$(105,526)	NM%

 

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $25,764 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $79,762 for the three months ended September 30, 2016.  The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities is primarily attributable to a decrease in proceeds from employee stock purchases and the exercise of warrants.

  

Working Capital

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had working capital of $11,346,103 when compared with working capital of $10,536,804 at June 30, 2017.  This $809,299 increase in working capital is primarily due to an increase of $831,780 in cash, an increase of $661,674 in accounts receivable, and an increase of $190,454 in deferred revenue, partially offset by an increase of $176,834 in accrued liabilities and an increase of $324,963 in accounts payable. While no assurances can be given, management currently believes that the Company will increase its working capital position in subsequent periods.

Current liabilities totaled $8,835,615 as of September 30, 2017 as compared to $8,169,929 as of June 30, 2017.  The comparative increase in current liabilities is principally due to an increase of $324,963 in accounts payable, an increase of $176,834 in accrued liabilities, and a $190,454 increase in deferred revenue. These were slightly offset by a decrease of $26,565 in the current portion of notes payable.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

  The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operation, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

We commenced operations in the software development and professional services business during 1990. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and assumptions. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience of operations and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, will affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

 

Income Taxes

 

In determining the carrying value of the Company’s net deferred income tax assets, the Company must assess the likelihood of sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions, based on estimates and assumptions, to realize the benefit of these assets.  If these estimates and assumptions change in the future, the Company may record a reduction in the valuation allowance, resulting in an income tax benefit in the Company’s statements of operations. Management evaluates whether or not to realize the deferred income tax assets and assesses the valuation allowance quarterly.

 

Goodwill and Other Long-Lived Asset Valuations

 

Goodwill is assigned to specific reporting units and is reviewed for possible impairment at least annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of an event or when circumstances indicate that a reporting unit's carrying amount is greater than its fair value. Management reviews the long-lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Management evaluates, at each balance sheet date, whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated cumulative undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or group of assets is less than the carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair market value of the long-lived asset. Economic useful lives of long-lived assets are assessed and adjusted as circumstances dictate.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, (ii) the service has been provided to the customer, (iii) the collection of our fees is probable, and (iv) the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable.

 

We recognize subscription, hosting, premium support, and maintenance revenue ratably over the length of the agreement beginning on the commencement dates of each agreement or when revenue recognition conditions are satisfied. Revenue from license and professional services agreements are recognized as delivered.

 

 

 

Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

 

Agreements with multiple deliverables such as subscriptions, support, and professional services, are accounted for separately if the deliverables have standalone value upon delivery. Subscription services have standalone value as the services are typically sold separately. When considering whether professional services have standalone value, the Company considers the following factors: (i) availability of services from other vendors, (ii) the nature and timing of professional services, and (iii) sales of similar services sold separately. Multiple deliverable arrangements are separated into units of accounting and the total contract consideration is allocated to each unit based on relative selling prices.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards. The Company records compensation expense on a straight-line basis. The fair value of options granted are estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with assumptions for the risk-free interest rate, expected life, volatility, dividend yield and forfeiture rate.

  

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Our business is currently conducted principally in the United States.  As a result, our financial results are not affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or economic conditions in foreign markets.  We do not engage in hedging transactions to reduce our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates, although if the geographical scope of our business broadens, we may do so in the future.

 

Our exposure to risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investments in short-term financial instruments.  Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry some interest rate risk.  The fair value of fixed rate securities may fall due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall.  Partly as a result of this, our future interest income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that have fallen in estimated fair value due to changes in interest rates.  However, as substantially all of our cash consist of bank deposits and short-term money market instruments, we do not expect any material change with respect to our net income as a result of an interest rate change. 

 

Our exposure to interest rate changes related to borrowing has been limited, and we believe the effect, if any, of near-term changes in interest rates on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows should not be material.  At September 30, 2017, the debt portfolio was composed of approximately 6.7% variable-rate debt and 93.3% fixed-rate debt.

 

	September 30, 2017 (unaudited)	Percent of  Total Debt
Fixed rate debt	$339,548	7%
Variable rate debt	4,800,257	93%
Total debt	$5,139,805	100%

 

The table that follows presents fair values of principal amounts and weighted average interest rates for our investment portfolio as of September 30, 2017:

 

Cash:	Aggregate  Fair Value	Weighted Average Interest Rate
Cash	$14,885,786	<1%
