NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE
1 –DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Organization
RumbleOn, Inc. was
incorporated in October 2013 under the laws of the State of Nevada,
as Smart Server, Inc. On February 13, 2017, the Company changed its
name from Smart Server, Inc. to RumbleOn, Inc. The Company refers
to the Company and its subsidiaries.
Description of Business
Overview
In July
2016, Berrard Holdings Limited Partnership ("Berrard Holdings")
acquired 99.5% of the common stock of the Company from the
principal stockholder. Shortly after the Berrard Holdings common
stock purchase, the Company began exploring the development of a
capital light e-commerce platform facilitating the ability of both
consumers and dealers to Buy-Sell-Trade-Finance pre-owned vehicles
in one online location and in April 2017, the Company launched its
platform. The Company's goal is to transform the way pre-owned
vehicles are bought and sold by providing users with the most
efficient, timely and transparent transaction experience. While the
Company's initial customer facing emphasis through most of 2018 was
on motorcycles and other powersports, the Company continues to
enhance its platform to accommodate nearly any VIN-specific vehicle
including motorcycles, ATVs, boats, RVs, cars and trucks, and via
its acquisition of Wholesale, Inc. ("Wholesale") in October 2018,
the Company is making a concerted effort to grow its cars and light
truck categories.
Serving
both consumers and dealers, through its online marketplace
platform, the Company makes cash offers for the purchase of
pre-owned vehicles. In addition, the Company offers a large
inventory of pre-owned vehicles for sale along with third-party
financing and associated products. The Company's operations are
designed to be scalable by working through an infrastructure and
capital light model that is achievable by virtue of a synergistic
relationship with its regional partners, which are primarily
auctions. The Company utilizes regional partners in the acquisition
of pre-owned vehicles to provide inspection, reconditioning and
distribution services. These regional partners earn incremental
revenue and enhance profitability through fees from inspection,
reconditioning and distribution programs.
Our
business model is driven by our proprietary technology platform.
Our initial platform was acquired in February 2017, through our
acquisition of substantially all of the assets of NextGen Dealer
Solutions, LLC ("NextGen"). Since that time, we have expanded the
functionality of that platform through a significant number of
high-quality technology development projects and initiatives.
Included in these new technology development projects and
initiatives are modules or significant upgrades to the existing
platforms for: (i) Retail online auction; (ii) native IOS and
Android apps; (iii) new architecture on website design and
functionality; (iv) RumbleOn Marketplace; (v) redesigned cash offer
tool;(vi) deal-jacket tracking tool; (vii) inventory tracking tool;
(viii) CRM and multiple third-party integrations; (ix) new
analytics and machine learning initiatives; and (x) IT monitoring
infrastructure.

Acquisitions
On
February 3, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition (the
"Autosport Acquisition") of all of the equity interests of
Autosport USA, Inc. ("Autosport"), an independent pre-owned vehicle
distributor, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated February
1, 2019 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), by and among RMBL
Express, LLC (the "Buyer"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Company,
Scott Bennie (the "Seller"), and Autosport. Aggregate consideration
for the Autosport Acquisition consisted of (i) a closing cash
payment of $600,000, plus (ii) a fifteen-month $500,000 promissory
note (the "Promissory Note") in favor of the Seller, plus
(iii) a three-year $1,536,000 convertible promissory note (the
"Convertible Note") in favor of the Seller, plus (iv) contingent
earn-out payments payable in the form of cash and/or the Company's
Class B Common Stock (the "Earn-Out Shares") for up to an
additional $787,500 if Autosport achieves certain performance
thresholds. In connection with the Autosport Acquisition, the Buyer
also paid outstanding debt of Autosport of $235,000 and assumed
additional debt of $257,933 pursuant to a promissory note payable
to Seller (the "Second Convertible Note").
Basis of Presentation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the
Company as of March 31, 2020 and December 31,
2019 and for the three months ended March 31,
2020 and March 31, 2019, have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim information and
with the instructions on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
All of the Company’s
subsidiaries are wholly owned. The condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of RumbleOn Inc. and its
wholly owned subsidiaries. In accordance with those rules and
regulations, the Company has omitted certain information and notes
required by U.S. GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments, except as otherwise noted,
necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s
financial position and results of operations for the periods
presented. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived
from audited financial statements. These condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Annual
Report”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
The results of operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily
indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year.
All intercompany accounts
and material intercompany transactions have been
eliminated.
Liquidity
We have
incurred losses and negative cash flow from operations since
inception through March 31, 2020 and expect to incur additional
losses and negative cash flow in the future. As we continue to
expand our business, build our brand name and awareness, and
continue technology and software development efforts, we may need
access to additional capital, including through debt and equity
financing. Historically, we have raised additional capital to fund
our expansion through equity issuances or debt instruments; refer
to Note 8 — Notes Payable and Lines of Credit, Note 9 -
Convertible Notes, and Note 11 — Stockholders Equity. Also,
we have historically funded vehicle inventory purchases through our
Line of Credit-Floor Plans. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on the
economy, we have a strong focus on preserving liquidity. Our
primary liquidity sources are available cash and cash equivalents,
amounts available under the NextGear Credit Line (as defined
below), proceeds from the Paycheck Protection Program loan,
monetization of our retail loan portfolio and through rationalizing
costs and expenses, including laying off 169 employees. Although we
have experienced a decrease in revenue as a result of the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic, as of June 26, 2020, the Company has
approximately $9,700,000 of cash of which $5,500,000 is restricted,
approximately $19,900,000 of remaining availability under the
NextGear Credit Line and $1,200,000 of availability under the
$1,500,000 RumbleOn Finance Facility (as described below). The
Company expects to receive recovery of its insured losses, however
no assurance can be given regarding the amounts, if any, that will
be ultimately recovered or when such amounts, if any, will be
recovered.
The
worldwide spread of the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a global
slowdown of economic activity which decreased demand for a broad
variety of goods and services, while also disrupting sales
channels, marketing activities and supply chains for an unknown
period of time until the outbreak is contained. This is impacting
the Company's business and the powersport and automotive industries
as a whole. The Company has positioned its business today to be
lean and flexible in this period of lower demand and higher
uncertainty with the goal of preparing the Company for a strong
recovery as the crisis is contained. The Company believes its
online business model allows it to quickly respond to market demand
or changes in the businesses it operates as the COVID-19 pandemic
continues.
The
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going
concern, which assumes the continuity of operations, the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities as they
come due in the normal course of business. Although the Company
believes that it will be able to generate sufficient liquidity from
the measures described above, its current circumstances including
uncertainties due to COVID-19 pandemic raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to operate as a going concern. The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
6
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in
conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions. Certain accounting estimates involve significant
judgments, assumptions and estimates by management that have a
material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and
liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period, which management considers to be critical accounting
estimates. The judgments, assumptions and estimates used by
management are based on historical experience, management's
experience and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and
assumptions made by management, actual results could differ
materially from these judgments and estimates. In particular, the
novel COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting adverse impacts to global
economic conditions, as well as the Company's operations, may
impact future estimates including, but not limited to inventory
valuations, fair value measurements, asset impairment charges and
discount rate assumptions.
Recent Pronouncements
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In June
2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13
"Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," ("ASU 2016-13"), which
amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a
forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate
credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, which
include trade and other receivables, loans and held-to-maturity
debt securities, to record an allowance for credit risk based on
expected losses rather than incurred losses, otherwise known as
"CECL". In addition, this guidance changes the recognition for
credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities, which can
occur as a result of market and credit risk and requires additional
disclosures. On November 15, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10
"Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and
Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)" ("ASU 2019-10"), which
provides a framework to stagger effective dates for future major
accounting standards and amends the effective dates for certain
major new accounting standards to give implementation relief to
certain types of entities. ASU 2019-10 amends the effective dates
for ASU 2016-13 for smaller reporting companies with fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those
years. The Company is evaluating the level of impact adopting ASU
2016-13 will have on the Company’s condensed consolidated
financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).
ASU 2016-02 requires that the rights and obligations created by
leases with a duration greater than 12 months be recorded as assets
and liabilities on the balance sheet of the lessee. This guidance
is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those
fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has
adopted this standard as of January 1, 2019 using the modified
retrospective approach for all leases entered into before the
effective date. The Company has also elected the option, as
permitted in ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted
Improvements, whereby initial application of the new lease standard
would occur at the adoption date and a cumulative-effect
adjustment, if any, would be recognized to the opening balance of
retained earnings in the period of adoption. For comparability
purposes, the Company will continue to comply with previous
disclosure requirements in accordance with existing lease guidance
for all periods presented in the year of adoption. The Company has
elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition
guidance which enabled the Company: (1) to carry forward the
historical lease classification; (2) not to reassess whether
expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; and (3) not to
reassess the treatment of initial direct costs for existing leases.
In addition, the Company has made an accounting policy election to
keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the
balance sheet. Upon adoption of this standard on January 1, 2019,
the Company recognized a total operating lease liability in the
amount of $3,118,038, representing the present value of the minimum
rental payments remaining as of the adoption date and a
right-of-use asset in the amount of $3,114,399. The cumulative
effect of this accounting change of $3,639 is included in the
accumulated deficit for the three-months ended March 31, 2019. The
standard did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed
consolidated statements of operations or statements of cash
flows.

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITIONS
On
February 3, 2019, the Company completed the Autosport Acquisition
pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement. Aggregate consideration
for the Autosport Acquisition consisted of (i) a closing cash
payment of $600,000, plus (ii) the Promissory Note in favor of the
Seller, plus (iii) the Convertible Note in favor of the Seller,
plus (iv) contingent earn-out payments payable in the form of cash
and/or the Company's Class B Common Stock for up to an additional
$787,500 if Autosport achieves certain performance thresholds. In
connection with the Autosport Acquisition, the Buyer also paid
outstanding debt of Autosport of $235,000 and assumed debt of
$257,933 pursuant to the Second Convertible Note. The fair value of the contingent earn-out payment
was considered immaterial at the date of acquisition and was
excluded from the purchase price allocation. As of March 31, 2020,
there have been no payments earned under the performance
threshold. See Note 1 – Description of Business and
Significant Accounting Policies for additional information on the
Autosport Acquisition.

NOTE 6 – GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The
following is a summary of the changes in the carrying amount of
goodwill and other indefinite-lived asset as of December 31,
2019 and the three-months ended March 31, 2020. Due to the
significant decline in the Company’s stock price and the
economic effect of COVID-19, the Company determined a triggering
event for Goodwill impairment existed. As a result, the Company
performed a quantitative impairment analysis for the Automotive
segment. The Company’s impairment test indicated no
impairment existed as the estimated fair value of the reporting
unit exceeded its carrying value at March 31, 2020.

Line of Credit-Floor Plan-NextGear
On
October 30, 2018, Wholesale, as borrower, entered into a floorplan
vehicle financing credit line (the "NextGear Credit Line") with
NextGear Capital, Inc. ("NextGear"). As of the date of this filing,
based on on-going discussions with NextGear, at some future date
advances under the NextGear Credit Line for Wholesale and Autosport
will be limited to $55,000,000. Advances
under the NextGear Credit Line require Wholesale to maintain at
least $5,500,000 cash collateral in a reserve account in favor of
NextGear, which amount is subject to change in NextGear's sole
discretion. Advances under the
NextGear Credit Line will bear interest at an initial per annum
rate of 5.25%, based upon a 360-day year, and compounded daily, and
the per annum interest rate will vary based on a base rate, plus
the contract rate, which is currently negative 2.0%, until the
outstanding liabilities to NextGear are paid in full. Interest expense on the
NextGear Credit Line for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 was
$458,528.
Line of Credit-Floor Plan-Ally
On February 16, 2018, the Company,
through its wholly-owned subsidiary RMBL MO, entered into an
Inventory Financing and Security Agreement (the "Credit Facility")
with Ally Bank ("Ally") and Ally Financial, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Ally" together with Ally Bank, the "Lender"),
pursuant to which the Lender may provide up to $25,000,000 in
financing, or such lesser sum which may be advanced to or on behalf
of RMBL MO from time to time, as part of its floorplan vehicle
financing program. Advances under the Credit Facility require that
the Company maintain 10.0% of the advance amount as restricted
cash. Advances under the Credit Facility will bear interest at a
per annum rate designated from time to time by the Lender and will
be determined using a 365/360 simple interest method of
calculation, unless expressly prohibited by law. Advances under the
Credit Facility, if not demanded earlier, are due and payable for
each vehicle financed under the Credit Facility as and when such
vehicle is sold, leased, consigned, gifted, exchanged, transferred,
or otherwise disposed of. Interest under the Credit Facility is due
and payable upon demand, but, in general, in no event later than 60
days from the date of request for payment. Upon any event of
default (including, without limitation, RMBL MO's obligation to pay
upon demand any outstanding liabilities of the Credit Facility),
the Lender may, at its option and without notice to the RMBL MO,
exercise its right to demand immediate payment of all liabilities
and other indebtedness and amounts owed to Lender and its
affiliates by RMBL MO and its affiliates. The Credit Facility is
secured by a grant of a security interest in the vehicle inventory
and other assets of RMBL MO and payment is guaranteed by the
Company pursuant to a guaranty in favor of the Lender and secured
by the Company pursuant to a General Security Agreement.
Interest expense on the Credit Facility for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 was $79,694. The Credit Facility
ended in February 2020.

Loan
Agreement-Hercules Capital Inc.
On May
14, 2019, the Company made a payment to Hercules Capital Inc.
("Hercules") of $11,134,695, representing the principal, accrued
and unpaid interest, fees, costs and expenses outstanding under its
Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Hercules
dated April 30, 2018 (the "Hercules Indebtedness"). Upon the
payment, all outstanding indebtedness and obligations of the
Company owed to Hercules under the Loan Agreement were paid in
full, and the Loan Agreement was terminated. The Company used a
portion of the net proceeds from the Note Offering (described
below) to pay the Hercules Indebtedness. In accordance with the
guidance in ASC 470-50, Debt, the Company accounted for the
extinguishment of the Loan Agreement as an extinguishment and
recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $1,499,250 for
the year ended December 31,
2019. The loss on early extinguishment consisted primarily
of the prepayment penalty paid to Hercules and unamortized debt
discounts including the remaining portion of warrant values and
debt issuance costs. There was no interest expense on the Hercules
loan for the three-months ended March 31, 2020. For the
three-months ended March 31, 2019, interest expense on the Hercules
loan was $483,491 and included $131,997 of debt issuance cost
amortization.
Notes Payable
NextGen
On
February 8, 2017, in connection with the acquisition of NextGen,
the Company issued a subordinated secured promissory note in favor
of NextGen (which note was subsequently assigned to Halcyon
Consulting LLC ("Halcyon") in February 2018) in the amount of
$1,333,334. Interest accrues and will be paid semi-annually
(i) at a rate of 6.5%
annually from the closing date through the second anniversary of
such date and (ii) at a
rate of 8.5% annually from the second anniversary of the closing
date through the January 31, 2021 maturity date (the "NextGen
Note"). Upon the occurrence of any event of default, the
outstanding balance under the note shall become immediately due and
payable upon election of the holder. The Company's obligations under the NextGen Note are
secured by substantially all the assets of NextGen Pro, LLC, the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary ("NextGen Pro"), pursuant to an
Unconditional Guaranty Agreement (the "Guaranty Agreement"), by and among NextGen and NextGen Pro,
and a related Security Agreement between the parties, each dated as
of February 8, 2017. Under the terms of the Guaranty Agreement,
NextGen Pro has agreed to guarantee the performance of all the
Company's obligations under the
NextGen Note. Interest expense on the NextGen Note for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 was $21,927 as compared to
$21,370 for the same period of 2019. In connection with the
Investor Note Exchange Agreement (described below), in January
2020, $500,000 of the NextGen Note was paid down and the NexGen
Note was exchanged for a New Investor Note (as defined
below).
Private Placement
On
March 31, 2017, the Company completed funding of the second tranche
of a private placement commenced in 2016 (the "2016 Private
Placement"). The investors were issued 58,096 shares of Class B
Common Stock of the Company and promissory notes (the "Private Placement Notes") in the amount of $667,000, in
consideration of cancellation of loan agreements having an
aggregate principal amount committed by the purchasers of
$1,350,000. Under the terms of the Private Placement Notes,
interest shall accrue on the outstanding and unpaid principal
amounts until paid in full. The Private Placement Notes mature on
January 31, 2021. Interest accrues at a rate of 6.5% annually from
the closing date through the second anniversary of such date and at
a rate of 8.5% annually from the second anniversary of the closing
date through the maturity date. Upon the occurrence of any event of
default, the outstanding balance under the Private Placement Notes
shall become immediately due and payable upon election of the
holders. Based on the relative fair values attributed to the Class
B Common Stock and promissory notes issued in the 2016 Private
Placement, the Company recorded a debt discount on the promissory
notes of $667,000 with the corresponding amounts recorded as an
addition to paid-in capital. The debt discount was amortized to
interest expense using an effective interest rate of 26.0%.
Interest expense on the Private Placement Notes for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 was $91,893 and included $75,601
of debt discount amortization as compared to interest expense of
$73,328 which included $59,348 of debt discount amortization for
the same period of 2019. In connection with the Investor Note
Exchange Agreement (described below) the Private Placement Notes
were exchanged for New Investor Notes (as defined
below).
Exchange of Notes Payable
Certain
of the Company's investors extended the maturity of outstanding
promissory notes, and exchanged such notes for new notes (the "New
Investor Notes"), pursuant to that certain Note Exchange Agreement,
dated January 14, 2020 (the "Investor Note Exchange Agreement"), by
and between the Company and each investor thereto (the
"Investors"), including Halcyon, an entity affiliated with Kartik
Kakarala, a director of the Company, such New Investor Note for an
aggregate principal amount of $833,333 (after taking account of a
$500,000 pay down of the NextGen Note), Blue Flame Capital, LLC
("Blue Flame"), an entity affiliated with Denmar Dixon, a director
of the Company, such New Investor Note for an aggregate principal
amount of $99,114, and Mr. Dixon, individually, such New Investor
Note for an aggregate principal amount of $272,563. The New
Investor Notes, having an aggregate principal amount of
approximately $1,500,000, will mature on January 31, 2021, and will
be convertible at any time at the Investor's option at a price of
$60.00 per share. Interest under the New Investor Notes accrue on
the outstanding and unpaid principal amount at the rate of 10.0%
per annum and shall be paid quarterly in arrears on the last day of
each of the Company's fiscal quarters beginning on March 30, 2020,
and, if applicable, on the January 31, 2021 maturity
date.

Convertible Senior Notes
On May
9, 2019, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement") with JMP Securities LLC ("JMP Securities") to
issue and sell $30,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of its
6.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 (the "Old Notes") in a
private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") (the "2019 Note Offering"). The Company paid JMP
Securities a fee of 7.0% of the gross proceeds in the 2019 Note
Offering. The proceeds for the 2019 Note Offering after deducting the initial purchaser's discounts,
advisory fees, and related offering expenses, were approximately
$27,385,500.
The Old
Notes were issued on May 14, 2019 pursuant to an Indenture
(the "Old Indenture") by and between the Company and Wilmington
Trust, National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The
Purchase Agreement included customary representations, warranties
and covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions.
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to
indemnify JMP Securities against certain liabilities. The Old Notes
bore interest at 6.75% per annum, payable semiannually on May 1 and
November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2019. The Old
Notes could bear additional interest under specified circumstances
relating to the Company's failure to comply with its reporting
obligations under the Old Indenture or if the Old Notes were not
freely tradeable as required by the Old Indenture. The Old Notes
would have matured on May 1, 2024, unless earlier converted,
redeemed or repurchased pursuant to their terms.
The
initial conversion rate of the Old Notes was 8.6956 shares of Class
B Common Stock, per $1,000 principal amount of the Old Notes,
subject to adjustment (which is equivalent to an initial conversion
price of approximately $115.00 per share, subject to adjustment).
The conversion rate was subject to adjustment in some events but
would not have been adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest.
In addition, upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change
(as defined in the Old Indenture), the Company would, in certain
circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of
additional shares for a holder that elected to convert its Old
Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental
change.
The Old
Notes were not redeemable by the Company prior to the May 6,
2022. The Company could have redeemed for cash all or any
portion of the Old Notes, at its option, on or after May 6, 2022 if
the last reported sale price of the Company's Class B Common Stock
had been at least 150.0% of the conversion price then in effect for
at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including
the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company
provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading
day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately
preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of
redemption at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the principal
amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid
interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund
was provided for the Old Notes. If redeemed, the Company would have
made an interest make-whole payment to the converting holder equal
to the sum of the present values of the scheduled payments of
interest that would have been made on the Old Notes to be converted
had such Old Notes remained outstanding from the conversion date
through the earlier of the date that is two years after the
conversion date and June 15, 2022.
In connection with the 2019 Note Offering, the
Company entered into a registration rights agreement with JMP
Securities, pursuant to which
the Company agreed to file with the SEC a resale shelf registration
statement providing for the resale of the Old Notes and the shares
of Class B Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Old
Notes.
12
On
January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a Note Exchange and
Subscription Agreement, as amended by a Joinder Agreement
(together, the "New Note Agreement"), with the investors in the
2019 Note Offering, pursuant to which the Company agreed to
complete (i) a note exchange pursuant to which $30,000,000 of the
Old Notes would be cancelled in exchange for a new series of 6.75%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the "New Notes," and together
with the Old Notes, the "Notes") and (ii) the issuance of
additional New Notes in a private placement in reliance on the
exemption from registration provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D of
the Securities Act as a sale not involving any public offering
(the "2020 Note
Offering"). On January 14, 2020, the Company closed the 2020
Note Offering. The proceeds
for the 2020 Note Offering after deducting for payment of accrued
interest on the Old Notes and offering-related expenses were
approximately $8,272,375.
The New Notes were issued
on January 14, 2020 pursuant to an Indenture (the "New
Indenture"), by and between the Company and the Trustee. The New
Note Agreement includes customary representations, warranties and
covenants by the Company and customary closing conditions. The New
Notes bear interest at 6.75% per annum, payable semiannually on
January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on July 1, 2020. The
New Notes may bear additional interest under specified
circumstances relating to the Company's failure to comply with its
reporting obligations under the New Indenture or if the New Notes
are not freely tradeable as required by the New Indenture. The New
Notes mature on January 1, 2025, unless earlier converted,
redeemed or repurchased pursuant to their terms.
The
initial conversion rate of the New Notes is 25 shares of Class B
Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of New Notes, which is
equal to an initial conversion price of $40.00 per share. The
conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain events as set
forth in the New Indenture but will not be adjusted for any accrued
and unpaid interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a
"make-whole fundamental change" (as defined in the New Indenture),
the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion
rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to
convert its New Notes in connection with such make-whole
fundamental change. Before July 1, 2024, the New Notes will be
convertible only under circumstances as described in the New
Indenture. No adjustment to the conversion rate as a result
of conversion or a make-whole fundamental change adjustment will
result in a conversion rate greater than 62.0 shares per $1,000 in
principal amount.
The New Indenture contains a "blocker provision" which provides
that no holder (other than the depositary with respect to the
notes) or beneficial owner of a New Note shall have the right to
receive shares of the Class B Common Stock upon conversion to the
extent that, following receipt of such shares, such holder or
beneficial owner would be the beneficial owner of more than 4.99%
of the outstanding shares of the Class B Common Stock.
The New Notes are not redeemable by the
Company before the January 14, 2023. The
Company may redeem for
cash all or any portion of the New Notes, at its option, on or
after January 14, 2023 if the last reported sale price of the Class
B Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then
in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not
consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the
date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any
30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the
trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company
provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100.0%
of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued
and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No
sinking fund is provided for the New Notes.
The New
Notes rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company's
indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to
the New Notes; equal in right of payment to any of the Company's
unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively
junior in right of payment to any of the Company's secured
indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such
indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other
liabilities of current or future subsidiaries of the Company
(including trade payables).
The New
Notes are subject to events of default typical for this type of
instrument. If an event of default, other than an event of default
in connection with certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization of the Company or any significant subsidiary, occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the
holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding New
Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare 100.0%
of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all
the New Notes then outstanding to be due and payable.
In
connection with the 2020 Note Offering, on January 14, 2020, the
Company entered into a registration rights agreement with the Note
Investors, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file with
the SEC a shelf registration statement registering the sale, on a
continuous or delayed basis, of all of the New Notes and to use its
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the shelf registration
statement to become or be declared effective under the Securities
Act no later than May 29, 2020 (which date has been adjusted for
certain intervening events, including the COVID-19
pandemic).
As
of March 31, 2020, the conditions allowing holders of the New
Notes to convert have not been met and therefore the New Notes are
not yet convertible.
13
The
Company accounted for the exchange of the Old Notes and the
issuance of the New Notes in accordance with the conversion
guidance in ASC 470-20 “Debt – Debt with Conversion and
Other Option” (ASC 470-20) and determined that the exchange
of the Old Notes for the New Notes required derecognition of the
Old Notes given that the difference in the fair value of the
embedded the conversion feature of the New Notes relative to the
Old Notes was in excess of 10 percent of the Old Notes conversion
feature fair value. In derecognizing the Old Notes, the Company
recognized a gain of $188,164 equal to difference between the fair
value of the Old Notes liability immediately prior to
extinguishment and the carry amount of the liability component of
the Old Notes, including any all unamortized debt issuance costs.
The remaining consideration of $2,593,163 was allocated to the
reacquisition of the equity component and recognized as a reduction
of stockholder’s equity.
The New Notes were accounted for in accordance
with FASB ASC 470, Debt and ASC 815, Derivatives and
Hedging, which required
bifurcation of the liability and equity components. The Company
determined the carrying amount of the liability component was
$25,280,430 and represents the present value of the New Notes cash
flows using an implied discount rate of 18.7%, which is a
yield applicable to similar debt instruments that do not have the
conversion feature. After allocation of
the initial proceeds to the liability components, the remaining
amount was allocated to the equity component and recorded as
additional paid in capital. The Company recorded $13,529,141 in
total debt discount related to the New Notes, and includes $59,571
of debt issuance costs. This debt discount is amortized to interest
expense over the term of the New Notes using the effective interest
rate method. The equity component is not remeasured as long as it
continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. The
Company further valued a derivative liability in connection with
the interest make-whole provision at $20,673 at issuance based on a
lattice model. This amount was recorded as a debt discount and is
amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Notes using
the effective interest rate. The derivative liability is remeasured
at each reporting date with the increase in value of
$116,815
being recorded in other income for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020. The value of the derivative
liability as of March 31, 2020 was $137,488.
The Company allocates transaction costs related to
the issuance of the New Notes to the liability and equity
components using the same proportions as the initial carrying value
of the New Notes. Transaction costs attributable to the debt
component were $59,571 and are being amortized to interest
expense using the effective interest method over the term of the
New Notes. Transaction costs attributable to the equity component
were $40,669 and are netted with the equity component of the
New Notes in stockholders' equity.
The interest expense recognized with respect to the Convertible
Notes was as follows:

Convertible Notes-Autosport USA
On
February 3, 2019, in connection with the Autosport Acquisition, the
Company issued (i) the Promissory Note and (ii) the
Convertible Note in favor of the Seller. In connection with the
Autosport Acquisition, the Buyer also assumed additional debt of
$257,933 pursuant to the Second Convertible Note.
The
$500,000 Promissory Note has a term of fifteen months and will
accrue interest at a simple rate of 5.0% per annum. Interest under
the Promissory Note is payable upon maturity. In June 2020,
principal payments of $128,000 were made and the promissory note
maturity date was extended to October 1, 2020 and the remaining
principal balance of $372,000 will be repaid in four equal
principal plus interest payments beginning July 1, 2020 through
maturity. Any interest and principal due under the Promissory Note
is convertible, at the Buyer's option into shares of the Company's
Class B Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the weighted
average trading price of the Company's Class B Common Stock on the
Nasdaq Stock Exchange for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days
preceding the conversion date. The number of shares of the
Company's Class B Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Promissory
Note is indeterminate at this time.
The
$1,536,000 Convertible Note matures on January 31, 2022 and accrues
interest at a rate of 6.5% per annum. Interest under the
Convertible Note is payable monthly for the first 12 months, and
thereafter monthly payments of amortized principal and interest
will be due. Any interest and principal due under the Convertible
Note is convertible into shares of the Company's Class B Common
Stock at a conversion price of $115.00 per share, (i) at the
Seller's option, or (ii) at the Buyer's option, on any day that (a)
any portion of the principal of the Convertible Note remains unpaid
and (b) the weighted average trading price of the Company's Class B
Common Stock on Nasdaq for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days
preceding such day has exceeded $140.00 per share. The maximum
number of shares issuable pursuant to the Convertible Note is
15,962 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock.
The
Second Convertible Note had a term of one year and accrued interest
at a simple rate of 5.0% per annum. The note was repaid in full
during the three-months ended March 31, 2020.
For the
three months ended March 31, 2020, interest expense on convertible
notes was $51,560 and included $19,693 of debt discount
amortization.

NOTE 10 – EQUITY-BASED
COMPENSATION
Share-Based Compensation
On June 30, 2017, the
Company's shareholders approved a Stock
Incentive Plan (the "Plan") reserving for issuance under the Plan
in the form of restricted stock units ("RSUs"), stock options
("Options"), Performance Units, and other equity awards
(collectively "Awards") for the Company's employees, consultants,
directors, independent contractors and certain prospective
employees who have committed to become an employee (each an
"Eligible Individual") of up to 12% of the shares of Class B Common
Stock outstanding from time to time. On June 25, 2018, the
Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the Plan to
increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the
Plan from 12.0% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of
Class B Common Stock from time to time to 100,000 shares of Class B
Common Stock (the "First Plan Amendment"). On May 20, 2019, the
Company's stockholders approved another amendment to the Plan to
increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the
Plan from 100,000 shares of Class B Common Stock to 200,000 shares
of Class B Common Stock (the "Second Plan Amendment"). To date, the
vesting of RSU and Option awards for most employees is service/time
based. Substantially all service/time based RSU and Option awards
issued typically vest over a three-year period with the following
vesting schedule: (i) 20.0%
vesting anywhere from eight-months to thirteen month after grant
date, (ii) an additional
30.0% during the subsequent twelve months of the initial
vesting, and
(iii) the final 50.0%
during the following twelve months. In 2019 the Company
granted to certain members of management an aggregate of (i) 12,213
performance-based awards that vest after two consecutive quarters
of $1.00 or greater operating income and trailing four quarter
revenue of $900,000,000 at any time through September 30, 2020, and
(ii) 36,938 market-based awards; these awards were terminated on
May 27, 2020 and the entire fair-value of the market based awards
was recognized in 2019. The Company estimates the fair value of
awards granted under the Plan on the date of grant. Stock-based
compensation expense is recognized as an expense on a straight-line
basis over the vesting periods described above and is recognized in
Selling, General and Administrative expense. A summary of
equity-based compensation expense recognized during the three
months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 is as follows (in
thousands):

directors participated in the 2020 Public Offering.
The
Company intends to use the net proceeds of the 2020 Public Offering
for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may
include further technology development, increased spending on
marketing and advertising and capital expenditures necessary to
grow the business. Pending these uses, the Company may invest the
net proceeds in short-term interest-bearing investment grade
instruments.

NOTE 13 – LOSS CONTINGENCIES AND INSURANCE
RECOVERIES
On
March 3, 2020, a severe tornado struck the greater Nashville area
causing significant damage to the Company's facilities including
contents and inventory held for sale. The Company maintains
insurance coverage for damage to its facilities and inventory, as
well as business interruption insurance. The Company continues in
the process of reviewing damages and coverages with its insurance
carriers. The loss comprises three components: (1) inventory loss,
currently assessed by the insurance carrier at approximately
$13,000,000; (2) building and personal property loss, primarily
impacting the Company's leased facilities, currently assessed by
the insurance carrier at $3,801,203; and (3) loss of business
income, for which the Company has coverage in the amount of
$6,000,000. All three components of the Company's loss claim have
been submitted to its insurers. The Company's inventory claim is
subject to a dispute with the carrier as to the policy limits
applicable to the loss. The insurer has agreed to pay $2,778,000 on
the building and personal property loss, reflecting limits of
$2,783,000 net of a $5,000 deductible and has made an interim
payment on the building and personal property loss of $2,269,507 to
the landlord. Currently, there is an outstanding balance of
$508,493 which will be paid to the landlord when replacement is
finished, which is expected to be sometime during 2021. The loss of
business income claim is ongoing and remains in the process of
negotiation, however, the insurer has advanced $250,000 against the
final settlement. The Company believes there will be a recovery of
all three loss components, however no assurance can be given
regarding the amounts, if any, that will be ultimately recovered
or
when any such recoveries will be made.
As a
result of the damage caused by the tornado, the Company has
concluded that the utility of the inventory damaged by the storm is
impaired as a result of physical damage sustained. Whether the
impairment is caused by physical destruction or an adverse change
in the utility of the inventory, entities should assess whether an
inventory impairment or write-off is required in accordance with
ASC 330-10-35-1 through 35-11, which address adjustments of
inventory balances to the lower of cost or net realizable value and
requires that when there is evidence that the utility of goods will
be less than cost, the difference is recognized as a loss in the
current period. For the three-months ended March 31, 2020,
the Company has recorded an impairment loss on inventory of
$11,738,413 comprised of $4,453,775 for vehicles that are a total
loss and $7,284,638 of value for vehicles that were partially
damaged and will require repair. The impairment loss is reported in
cost of revenue in the March 31, 2020 condensed consolidated
statements of operations. The Company has not recorded any
recoveries that are expected to be received from the insurance
carrier since the final amount and timing of the recovery has not
been determined. Any such recovery would be reported as a separate
component of income from continuing operations in the period in
which such recovery is recognizable.
During
the three-months ended March 31, 2020, the Company expensed
$177,626 of the net book value of the property and equipment
destroyed by the tornado. The Company has not recorded any
recoveries that are expected to be received from the insurance
carrier since the final amount and timing of the recovery has not
been determined.

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES
CARES Act
In
March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act
(the "CARES Act") was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Company does not expect the provisions of the legislation to
have a significant impact on the effective tax rate or income tax
payable and deferred income tax positions of the
Company.
No
current provision for Federal income taxes was recorded for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 due to the
Company's operating losses. The
Company has provided a valuation allowance on the net deferred tax
assets. In assessing the recovery of the net deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some
portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The
ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the
generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those
temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the
scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future
taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this
assessment.
NOTE 16 – LOSS PER SHARE
The
Company computes basic and diluted net loss per share attributable
to common stockholders in conformity with the two-class method
required for participating securities. Under the two-class method,
basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is
calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common
stockholders by the weighed-average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the period. The diluted net loss
per share attributable to common stockholders is computed giving
effect to all potential dilutive common stock equivalents
outstanding for the period. For purposes of this calculation,
119,096 of RSUs, 4,351 of stock options, 16,530 of warrants to
purchase shares of Class B Common Stock and 2,389,026 shares of
Class B Common Stock issuable in connection with convertible debt
are considered common stock equivalents but have been excluded from
the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to
common stockholders as the effect is
antidilutive.
17
In
connection with the Company's acquisition of Wholesale, the Company
issued 1,317,329 shares of Series B Non-Voting Convertible
Preferred Stock. The rights of the holder of the Series B Preferred
and Class A and Class B Common Stock are identical, except with
respect to voting. The Series B Preferred automatically converted
to Class B Common Stock 21 days after the mailing of the definitive
information statement prepared in accordance with Regulation 14C of
the Exchange Act, without further action on the part of the
Company. The conversion of the Series B Preferred to Class B Common
was effected on March 4, 2019. The Company applies the two-class
method of calculating earnings per share, but as the rights of the
Series B Preferred and Class A and Class B Common Stock are
identical, except in respect of voting, basic and diluted earnings
per share are the same for all classes. Weighted average number of
shares outstanding of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock,
and Series B Preferred at March 31, 2020 were 50,000, 2,046,423, and 0,
respectively.
NOTE 17 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
As of
March 31, 2020, the Company had promissory notes of $370,556 and accrued interest of
$23,731 and $7,939,
respectively, due to Blue Flame, an entity controlled by a Denmar
Dixon, a director of the Company. The promissory notes were issued
in connection with the completion of the 2016 Private Placement on
March 31, 2017 and exchanged in January 2020 for New Investor
Notes. Interest expense on the promissory notes due to Blue Flame,
for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 was
$91,844 and $40,738,
respectively, which included debt discount amortization of
$42,001 and $32,971, respectively. The interest was charged to
interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
See
Note 8 – Notes Payable and Lines of Credit for a discussion
of the NextGen Note.
NOTE 18 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lease Commitments
The
Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception
and whether such leases are operating or financing leases. For each
lease agreement, the Company determines its lease term as the
non-cancellable period of the lease and includes options to extend
or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will
exercise that option. The Company uses these options in determining
its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The Company's lease
agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or
material restrictive covenants. As the Company's leases do not
provide an implicit rate, it uses its incremental borrowing rate
based on the information available at commencement date in
determine the present value of the lease payments.
Operating lease
expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Total operating lease expenses for the three-months ended March 31,
2020 and 2019 was $527,044 and $237,256, respectively. The current
portion of the Company's operating lease liabilities as of March
31, 2020 is $1,414,054 and is included in accounts payable and
accrued liabilities. The long-term portion of the Company's
operating lease liabilities as of March 31, 2020 is $4,529,790 and
is included in other liabilities.

Legal Matters
From
time to time, the Company is involved in various claims and legal
actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the
results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with
certainty, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the
Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any legal
actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a
material adverse effect on its financial position, results of
operations, liquidity, and capital resources.
Future
litigation may be necessary to defend the Company by determining
the scope, enforceability and validity of third party proprietary
rights or to establish its own proprietary rights. The results of
any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with
certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an
adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement
costs, diversion of management resources, and other
factors.
NOTE 19 – CONCENTRATIONS
The
Company is dependent on third-party providers of wholesale vehicle
auctions. The Company is dependent on their ability to provide
services on a timely basis and at favorable pricing terms. The loss
of these principal providers or a significant reduction in service
availability could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Company believes that its relationships with these providers
are satisfactory.
NOTE 20 - SEGMENT REPORTING
Business segments are defined as components of an enterprise about
which discrete financial information is available that is evaluated
regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing operating performance. The
Company's operations are organized by management into operating
segments by line of business. The Company has determined that it
has three reportable segments as defined in U.S. GAAP for segment
reporting: (1) powersports, (2) automotive, and (3) vehicle
logistics and transportation. The Company's powersports and
automotive segments consist of the distribution of pre-owned
vehicles. The powersports segment consists of the distribution
principally of motorcycles, while the automotive segment
distributes cars and trucks. Our vehicle logistics and
transportation service segment provides nationwide automotive
transportation services between dealerships and auctions. The
accounting policies of the segments are the same and are described
in Note 1 – Description of Business and Significant
Accounting Policies.
The following table summarizes revenue, operating income (loss),
Depreciation and Amortization and interest expense which are the
measure by which management allocates resources to its segments to
each of our reportable segments.

NOTE 21 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Reverse Stock Split
On May
18, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Change to the
Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of
State of the State of Nevada to effect a one-for-twenty reverse
stock split of its issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The
Reverse Stock Split was effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on
May 20, 2020. No fractional shares were issued as a result of the
Reverse Stock Split. Any fractional shares that would have resulted
from the Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole
share. The authorized preferred stock of the Company was not
impacted by the Reverse Stock Split. Following the Reverse Stock
Split, on May 20, 2020, the Company has outstanding 50,000 shares
of Class A Common Stock and approximately 2,162,696 shares of Class
B Common Stock. On May 20, 2020, the Company’s Class B Common
Stock commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a
split-adjusted basis. The Company has retrospectively adjusted the
per share and share amounts included in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the Reverse Stock Split.
PPP Loan
On May
1, 2020, the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Wholesale
and Wholesale Express (together, the “Subsidiaries,”
and with the Company, the “Borrowers”), each entered
into loan agreements and related promissory notes (the “SBA
Loan Documents”) to receive U.S. Small Business
Administration Loans (the “SBA Loans”) pursuant to the
Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) established
under the CARES Act, in the aggregate amount of $5,176,845 (the
“Loan Proceeds”). The Borrowers received the Loan
Proceeds on May 1, 2020. Under the SBA Loan Documents, the SBA
Loans have a fixed interest rate of 1%, repayment begins six months
from the date of disbursement of each SBA Loan, and the SBA Loans
mature two years from the date of first disbursement. There is no
prepayment penalty.
Pursuant to the
terms of the SBA Loan Documents, the Borrowers may apply for
forgiveness of the amount due on the SBA Loans in an amount equal
to the sum of the following costs incurred by the Borrowers during
the eight-week period (or any other period that may be authorized
by the U.S. Small Business Administration) beginning on the date of
first disbursement of the SBA Loans: payroll costs, any payment of
interest on a covered mortgage obligation, payment on a covered
rent obligation, and any covered utility payment. The amount of SBA
Loan forgiveness shall be calculated in accordance with the
requirements of the PPP, including the provisions of Section 1106
of the CARES Act, although no more than 40% of the amount forgiven
can be attributable to non-payroll costs. No assurance is provided
that forgiveness for any portion of the SBA Loans will be
obtained.
19
The
promissory notes evidencing the SBA Loans contain customary events
of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults,
breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the
promissory notes. The occurrence of an event of default may result
in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all
amounts owing from the Borrowers, and filing suit and obtaining
judgment against the Borrowers.
Form 10-Q Extension
On May
14, 2020, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to
announce that the Company’s operations and business continued
to experience disruption due to the unprecedented conditions
surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic spreading
throughout the United States, and management was unable to timely
review and prepare the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2020. As a result, the Company indicated
its intent to delay the filing of the Quarterly Report in reliance
on the SEC March 25, 2020 Order (which extended and superseded a
prior order issued on March 4, 2020), pursuant to the Order, which
allows for the delay of certain filings required under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company relied on
the Order for the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q.
RumbleOn Finance Loan
On June
23, 2020, RumbleOn Finance, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company ("RumbleOn Finance"), entered into a loan agreement
providing for up to $1,500,000 in proceeds (the "RumbleOn Finance
Facility") with CL Rider Finance, L.P. (the "CL Rider") as
evidenced by the loan commitment dated as of June 17, 2020. In
connection with the loan agreement, RumbleOn Finance pledged its
assets to CL Rider to secure the RumbleOn Finance Facility and
executed a promissory note in favor of the CL Rider pursuant to
which the RumbleOn Finance Facility will accrue interest at an
initial rate of 4.0% per annum. The RumbleOn Finance Facility is
payable on demand by CL Rider.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this report to
"RumbleOn," the "Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to RumbleOn
and its consolidated subsidiaries. The following Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations ("MD&A") is provided as a supplement to, and should
be read in conjunction with, our audited consolidated financial
statements, the accompanying notes and the MD&A included in our
most recent Annual Report filed on Form 10-K, as well as our
condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying
notes included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are
a technology driven, motor vehicle dealer and e-commerce platform
provider disrupting the vehicle supply chain using innovative
technology that aggregates, processes and distributes inventory in
a faster and more cost-efficient manner.
We
operate an infrastructure-light platform that facilitates the
ability of all participants in the supply chain, including
RumbleOn, other dealers and consumers to
Buy-Sell-Trade-Finance-Transport pre-owned vehicles. Our goal is to
transform the way VIN-specific pre-owned vehicles are bought and
sold by providing users with the most comprehensive, efficient,
timely and transparent transaction experiences. While our initial
customer facing emphasis through most of 2018 was on motorcycles
and other powersports vehicles, we continue to enhance our platform
to accommodate nearly any VIN-specific vehicle including
motorcycles, ATVs, boats, RVs, cars and trucks. Since our
acquisition of Wholesale, Inc. ("Wholesale") in October 2018, we
have significantly increased our sales of cars and light trucks
("automotive"). Of the 7,420 vehicles we sold during the
three-months ended March 31, 2020, 4,603 (62.0%) were automotive
and 2,817 (38.0%) were powersports vehicles. For the three-months
ended March 31, 2019, we sold 12,103 vehicles of which 8,805
(72.8%) were automotive and 3,298 (27.2%) were powersports
vehicles.
COVID-19 Update
COVID-19 is having
an impact on businesses nationwide, with local governments,
businesses, and consumers increasingly limiting commercial activity
and capital markets experiencing instability. The worldwide spread
of the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a global slowdown of
economic activity which decreased demand for a broad variety of
goods and services, while also disrupting sales channels, marketing
activities and supply chains for an unknown period of time until
the outbreak is contained. This is impacting our business and the
powersport and automotive industries as a whole. We have positioned
our business today to be lean and flexible in this period of lower
demand and higher uncertainty with the goal of preparing the
Company for a strong recovery as the crisis is contained. To this
end, we have temporarily reduced discretionary growth expenditures
on new hiring, travel, facilities, and information technology
investments. We have significantly reduced our staffing by laying
off 169 associates during the first quarter of 2020, we have
applied and received PPP loan funds of $5,176,845, and adjusted
purchasing levels to align with demand and market conditions, while
closely monitoring key metrics to determine when and how quickly to
adjust. We believe our 100% online business model allows us to
quickly respond to market demand or changes in the businesses we
operate as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Our
most important priority is the well-being of our employees and
customers. We have taken several steps to provide a healthy working
environment, including implementing work from home policies for
employees who are able to work remotely, eliminating all
non-essential travel and group meetings and implementing social
distancing policies. For many customers, selling or buying a
vehicle is an important component of their business or
transportation needs. We believe our online model for buying and
selling, which allows dealers and consumers to sell or buy a
vehicle without ever coming into physical contact with another
person, is the safest way to sell or buy a vehicle. Our touchless
buying and selling processes allows dealers and consumers to sell
or shop for a vehicle from their business or home, complete their
transaction on their phone or laptop, and have the vehicle picked
up or delivered without coming into physical contact with our
personnel.
Our
financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by
management that affect the carrying values of the Company’s
assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses
during the reporting period. The judgments, assumptions and
estimates used by management are based on historical experience,
management’s experience, and other factors, which are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the
nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual
results could differ materially from these judgments and estimates,
including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a
material impact on the carrying values of the Company’s
assets and liabilities and the results of operations. We will
continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to our
business and our results of operations and financial condition as
conditions evolve as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic.
Our
operational and financial performance will depend on future
developments related to the continuously evolving COVID-19
pandemic. Future developments include the duration, scope and
severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain or mitigate
its impact, the development of treatments or vaccines, the
resumption of widespread economic activity, and changes in consumer
sentiment. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and
rapidly evolving situation, we are unable to predict the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our future
operations.
21
Outlook
In
addition to the general business pressures resulting from the
shelter-in-place orders and broader economic uncertainty, our
business was further impacted from a tornado that struck Nashville
on March 3, 2020. Business in January and February was strong, but
the combination of these
events reduced our March revenue by 51.7% as compared to February
of this year. We
experienced what
we believe was the bottom of the downturn in mid-April, with
the largest unit sales decline and our lowest level of inventory
acquisition during the quarter. By the end of April conditions
began improving slowly and ramping quicker as the month of May
progressed. Total unit sales for the month of April were down 66%
from January levels. The velocity of the rebound in May and thus
far through June has been higher than expected and with the return
of demand, our acquisition of inventory has accelerated. In May,
unit sales increased more than 22% from April’s lows, and
based on initial June month-to-date results we are expecting at
least a 26% increase in month-over-month unit sales in June as
compared to April. Though we are still below the monthly unit
volumes experienced in January and February, our preliminary
results for the month of June show our highest gross margin on
units sold in our history and significant operating income
improvement from prior periods. We
don't believe the June levels of gross margin will continue over
the long term, and we expect vehicle margins will stabilize as
demand levels. Nevertheless, we expect the new normal to be an
impressive improvement in gross profit per unit going
forward reflecting the progress we are making on our
objective of a more disciplined approach to sales volume as we take
prescriptive steps to achieve our goal of accelerating
profitability.
Nashville Tornado
On
March 3, 2020, a severe tornado struck the greater Nashville area
causing significant damage to the Company's facilities in
Nashville. The Company maintains insurance coverage for damage to
its facilities and inventory, as well as business interruption
insurance. The Company continues in the process of reviewing
damages and coverages with its insurance carriers. The loss
comprises three components: (1) inventory loss, currently assessed
by the insurance carrier at approximately $13,000,000; (2) building
and personal property loss, currently assessed by the insurance
carrier at $3,801,203; and (3) loss of business income, for which
the Company has coverage in the amount of $6,000,000.
All
three components of the Company's loss claim have been submitted to
its insurers. The Company's inventory claim is subject to a dispute
with the carrier as to the policy limits applicable to the loss.
The insurer has agreed to pay $2,778,000 on the building and
personal property loss, reflecting limits of $2,783,000 net of a
$5,000 deductible and has made an interim payment on the building
and personal property loss of $2,269,507 to the landlord.
Currently, there is minimally an outstanding balance of $508,493
which will be paid when replacement is finished, which is expected
to be sometime during 2021. The loss of business income claim is
ongoing and remains in the process of negotiation, however, the
insurer has advanced $250,000 against the final settlement. The
Company believes there will be a recovery of all three loss
components, however no assurance can be given regarding the
amounts, if any, that will be ultimately recovered or
when any such recoveries will be made.
Acquisition of Autosport
On
February 3, 2019 (the "Autosport Acquisition Date"), the Company
completed the acquisition (the "Autosport Acquisition") of all of
the equity interests of Autosport USA, Inc. ("Autosport"),
an independent pre-owned vehicle
distributor, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement,
dated February 1, 2019 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), by and
among RMBL Express, LLC (the "Buyer"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Company, Scott Bennie (the "Seller") and Autosport. The results of
operations of Autosport are included in the Company's Condensed
Consolidated financial statements for the three-months ended March
31, 2019. For additional information, see Note 4 –
"Acquisitions" in the accompanying Notes to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Reportable Segments
Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise
about which discrete financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in
deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing operating
performance. Our operations are organized by management into
operating segments by line of business. We have determined that we
have three reportable segments as defined in generally accepted
accounting principles for segment reporting: (1) powersports,
(2) automotive and (3) vehicle logistics and transportation.
Our powersports and automotive segments consist of the distribution
of pre-owned vehicles. The powersports segment consists of the
distribution of principally motorcycles, while the automotive
segment distributes cars and trucks. Our vehicle logistics and
transportation service segment provides nationwide automotive
transportation services primarily between dealerships and
auctions.

Impairment Loss resulting from the Nashville Tornado.
Seasonality
Absent the impact of COVID-19,
the volume of vehicles sold will generally fluctuate from
quarter-to-quarter. This seasonality is caused by several factors
including weather, the timing of pre-owned vehicles available for
sale from selling consumers, the availability and quality of
vehicles, holidays, and the seasonality of the retail market for
pre-owned vehicles. As a result, revenue and operating expenses
related to volume will fluctuate accordingly on a quarterly basis.
The fourth calendar quarter typically experiences lower used
vehicle auction accessibility as well as additional costs
associated with the holidays and winter weather.
22
Investment in Growth
As a
result of the COVID-19 pandemic we have temporarily reduced
discretionary growth expenditures, however, as the impact of
COVID-19 abates over time, and unit sales return to or exceed
levels experienced in January and February of 2020, we will
take a measured approach to resuming investment in inventory,
marketing, technology and infrastructure to support the growth of
the business. These anticipated investments are expected to
increase our negative cash flow from operations and operating
losses at least in the near term, and our limited operating history
makes predictions of future operating results difficult to
ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks,
including the impact of COVID-19, expenses and difficulties
frequently encountered by companies that are early in their
development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving
markets. Such risks for us include an evolving business model,
advancement of technology and the management of growth. To address
these risks, we must, among other things, continue our development
of relevant applications, stay abreast of changes in the
marketplace, as well as implement and successfully execute our
business and marketing strategy. There can be no assurance that we
will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to
do so can have a material adverse effect on our business
prospects, financial condition and results of
operations.
Liquidity
We have
incurred losses and negative cash flow from operations since
inception through March 31, 2020 and expect to incur additional
losses and negative cash flow in the future. As we continue to
expand our business, build our brand name and awareness, and
continue technology and software development efforts, we may need
access to additional capital, including through debt and equity
financing. Historically, we have raised additional capital to fund
our expansion through equity issuances or debt instruments; refer
to Note 8 — Notes Payable and Lines of Credit, Note 9 —
Convertible Notes, and Note 10 — Stockholders Equity. Also,
we have historically funded vehicle inventory purchases through our
Line of Credit-Floor Plans. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on the
economy, we have a strong focus on preserving liquidity. Our
primary liquidity sources are available cash and cash equivalents,
amounts available under the NextGear Credit Line (as defined
below), proceeds from the Paycheck Protection Program loan,
monetization of our retail loan portfolio and through rationalizing
costs and expenses, including laying off 169 employees. Although we
have experienced a decrease in revenue as a result of the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic, as of June 26, 2020, the Company has
approximately $9,700,000 of cash of which $5,500,000 is restricted,
approximately $19,900,000 of remaining availability under the
NextGear Credit Line and $1,200,000 of availability under the
$1,500,000 RumbleOn Finance Facility. The Company expects to
receive recovery of its insured losses, however no assurance can be
given regarding the amounts, if any, that will be ultimately
recovered or when such amounts, if any, will be
recovered.
The
worldwide spread of the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in a global
slowdown of economic activity which decreased demand for a broad
variety of goods and services, while also disrupting sales
channels, marketing activities and supply chains for an unknown
period of time until the outbreak is contained. This is impacting
the Company's business and the powersport and automotive industries
as a whole. The Company has positioned its business today to be
lean and flexible in this period of lower demand and higher
uncertainty with the goal of preparing the Company for a strong
recovery as the crisis is contained. The Company believes its
online business model allows it to quickly respond to market demand
or changes in the businesses it operates as the COVID-19 pandemic
continues.
The
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going
concern, which assumes the continuity of operations, the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities as they
come due in the normal course of business. Although the Company
believes that it will be able to generate sufficient liquidity from
the measures described above, its current circumstances including
uncertainties due to COVID-19 pandemic raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to operate as a going concern. The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Key Operation Metrics - Powersports and Automotive
Segments
We
regularly review a number of metrics, to evaluate our vehicle
distribution business, measure our progress, and make strategic
decisions. Our key operating metrics reflect what we believe will
be the key drivers of our business, including increasing brand
awareness, maximizing the opportunity to source the purchase of low
cost pre-owned vehicles from consumers and dealers while enhancing
the selection of vehicles we make available to our customers. Our
key operating metrics also demonstrate our ability to translate
these drivers into sales and to monetize these retail sales through
a variety of product offerings.

and other insignificant indirect costs.
Vehicles Sold
We
define vehicles sold as the number of pre-owned vehicles sold to
consumers and dealers in each period, net of returns under our
various return policies. We view vehicles sold as a key measure for
several reasons. First, vehicles sold is the primary driver of our
revenue and, indirectly, gross profit, since vehicle sales enable
multiple complementary revenue streams, including financing,
vehicle service contracts and trade-ins. Second, vehicles sold
increases the base of available customers for referrals and repeat
sales. Third, vehicles sold is an indicator of our ability to
successfully scale our logistics, fulfillment, and customer service
operations.
Regional Partners
Our
operations are designed to be scalable by working through an
infrastructure and capital light model that is achievable by virtue
of a synergistic relationship with regional partners. We utilize
these regional partners to provide inspection, reconditioning and
distribution services. These regional partners earn incremental
revenue and enhance profitability through fees from inspection,
reconditioning and distribution programs. As regional partners are
added throughout the U.S., the cost and time associated with
distribution programs will be significantly reduced as the pickup
and delivery of pre-owned vehicles will become more localized thus
reducing shipping costs and the average days to sale for pre-owned
vehicles.
Average Days to Sale
We
define average days to sale as the average number of days between
vehicle acquisition by us and delivery to a customer for all
pre-owned vehicles sold in a period. However, this metric does not
include any pre-owned vehicles that remain unsold at period end. We
view average days to sale as a useful metric due to its impact on
pre-owned vehicle average selling price.
Revenue
Revenue
is primarily comprised of pre-owned vehicle sales. We sell
pre-owned vehicles through consumer and dealer sales channels.
These multiple sales channels provide us the opportunity to
maximize profitability through increased sales volume and lower
average days to sale by selling to the channel where the
opportunity is the greatest at any given time based on customer
demand, market conditions or inventory availability. The number of
pre-owned vehicles sold to any given channel may vary from period
to period based on customer demand, market conditions and available
inventory. Subject to the impact of COVID-19 on our results, as
discussed elsewhere in this MD&A, we expect pre-owned vehicle
sales to increase as we begin to utilize a combination of brand
building as well as direct response channels to efficiently source
and scale our addressable markets while expanding our suite of
product offerings to consumers who may wish to trade-in or to sell
us their vehicle independent of a retail sale. Factors primarily
affecting pre-owned vehicle sales include the number of retail
pre-owned vehicles sold and the average selling price of these
vehicles.
24
Gross Profit
Gross
profit is generated on pre-owned vehicle sales from the difference
between the vehicle selling price and our cost of revenue
associated with acquiring the vehicle and preparing it for sale.
The aggregate dollar gross profit achieved from the consumer and
dealer sales channels are different. Pre-owned vehicles sold to
consumers through our website generally have the highest dollar
gross profit since the vehicle is sold directly to the consumer.
Pre-owned vehicles sold to dealers through our website are sold at
a price below the retail price offered to consumers, thus the
dealer and RumbleOn are sharing the gross profit. Pre-owned
vehicles sold to dealers through auctions are sold at market.
Factors affecting gross profit from period to period include the
mix of pre-owned vehicles we acquire and hold in inventory, retail
market prices, our average days to sale, and our pricing strategy.
We may opportunistically choose to shift our inventory mix to
higher or lower cost vehicles, or to opportunistically raise or
lower our prices relative to market to take advantage of supply or
demand imbalances in our sales channels, which could temporarily
lead to average selling prices and gross profits increasing or
decreasing in any given channel.

believe will be the key drivers of our business, including
increasing brand awareness, and maximizing the opportunity to drive
increased transportation and logistics unit volume. Our key operating metrics also

Revenue
Revenue
is derived from freight
brokerage agreements with dealers, distributors, or private
party individuals to transport vehicles from a point of origin to a
designated destination. The transaction price
is based on the consideration specified in the customer's
contract. The freight
brokerage agreements are fulfilled by independent
third-party transporters who are obligated to meet our performance
obligations and standards. Generally, customers
are billed either upon shipment of the vehicle or on a monthly
basis, and remit payment according to approved payment
terms. Revenue is recognized as risks and rewards of
transportation of the vehicle is transferred to the owner during
delivery. Wholesale Express is considered the principal in the
delivery transactions since it is primarily responsible for
fulfilling the service. As a result, revenue is recorded gross. In
the normal course of operations, Wholesale Express also provides
transportation services to Wholesale.
26
Vehicles Delivered
We
define vehicles delivered as the number of vehicles delivered from
a point of origin to a designated destination under freight
brokerage agreements with dealers, distributors, or private
party individuals. Vehicles delivered is the primary driver of
revenue and in turn profitability in the vehicle logistics and
transportation services segment.
Gross Profit
Gross
profit is generated on the difference between the price received
from a customer under a freight
brokerage agreement for the
transport of a vehicle from a point of origin to a designated
destination minus our cost to contract an independent third-party transporter to fulfill
our obligation under the freight brokerage agreement with the
customer. We define gross profit per vehicle delivered as
the aggregate gross profit in a given period divided by the number
of pre-owned vehicles delivered in that period.
COMPONENTS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenue
Revenue
for our powersports and automotive segments is derived from our
online marketplace and auctions and primarily includes the sale of
pre-owned vehicles to consumer and dealers.
Revenue
from our vehicle logistics and transportation service segment is
derived by providing automotive transportation services between
dealerships and auctions throughout the United States.
The
Company recognizes revenue using the modified retrospective method.
ASC 606 prescribes a five-step model that includes: (1) identify
the contract; (2) identify the performance obligations; (3)
determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price
to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or
as) performance obligations are satisfied. Based on the manner in
which we historically recognized revenue, the adoption of ASC 606
did not have a material impact on the amount or timing of our
revenue recognition, and we recognized no cumulative effect
adjustment upon adoption.
Pre-owned Vehicle Sales
We sell
pre-owned vehicles through consumer and dealer sales channels.
These multiple sales channels provide us the opportunity to
maximize profitability through increased sales volume and lower
average days to sale by selling to the channel where the
opportunity is the greatest at any given time based on customer
demand, market conditions or inventory availability. The number of
pre-owned vehicles sold to any given channel may vary from period
to period based on customer demand, market conditions and available
inventory.
Pre-owned vehicle
sales represent the aggregate sales of pre-owned vehicles to
consumers and dealers through our website or at
auctions. We expect
pre-owned vehicle sales to increase as we begin to utilize a
combination of brand building as well as direct response channels
to efficiently source and scale our addressable markets while
expanding our suite of product offerings to consumers who may wish
to trade-in or to sell us their vehicle independent of a retail
sale. Factors affecting pre-owned vehicle sales include the number
of retail pre-owned vehicles sold and the average selling price of
these vehicles.
The
number of pre-owned vehicles we sell depends on our volume of
website traffic, volume of cash offers made, our inventory levels
and selection, the effectiveness of our branding and marketing
efforts, the quality of our customer sales experience, our volume
of referrals and repeat customers, the competitiveness of our
pricing, competition and general economic conditions. On a
quarterly basis, the number of pre-owned vehicles we sell is also
affected by seasonality, with demand for pre-owned vehicles
reaching the high point in the first half of each year,
commensurate with the timing of tax refunds, and diminishing
through the rest of the year, with the lowest relative level of
pre-owned vehicle sales expected to occur in the fourth calendar
quarter. Seasonality trends have been impacted by the COVID-19
pandemic, which has resulted in a significant decline in the
pre-owned powersports and automotive industry, including our
business and results of operations.
Our
average retail selling price depends on the mix of pre-owned
vehicles we acquire and hold in inventory, retail market prices in
our markets, our average days to sale, and our pricing strategy. We
may choose to shift our inventory mix to higher or lower cost
pre-owned vehicles, or to opportunistically raise or lower our
prices relative to market to take advantage of supply or demand
imbalances, which could temporarily lead to average selling prices
increasing or decreasing.
27
The
number of pre-owned vehicles sold to dealers at auctions is
determined based on a number of factors including: (i) filling
auction sales channel market demand opportunities to maximize sales
and gross margin; (ii) a need to balance the Company's overall
inventory mix and quantity levels against days to sales targets;
and (iii) a need to liquidate those pre-owned vehicles that do
not meet the Company's quality standards to be sold through
Rumbleon.com. The auction market has also been adversely impacted
by the COVID-19 pandemic resulting from practices implemented to
combat COVID-19, such as social distancing and
shelter-in-place policies as
well as the broader economic slowdown.
Vehicle Logistics and Transportation Services
Vehicle
logistics and transportation services revenue is generated
primarily by entering into freight
brokerage agreements with dealers, distributors, or private
party individuals to transport vehicles from a point of origin to a
designated destination. The transaction price
is based on the consideration specified in the customer's contract.
A performance obligation is created when the customer under a
transportation contract submits a bill of lading for the transport
of goods from origin to destination. These performance obligations
are satisfied as the shipments move from origin to
destination. The freight
brokerage agreements are fulfilled by independent
third-party transporters. While the Company is primarily
responsible for fulfilling to customers, these transporters are
obligated to meet our performance obligations and standards.
Performance
obligations are short-term, with transit days less than one week.
Generally, customers are billed either upon shipment of the vehicle
or on a monthly basis, and remit payment according to approved
payment terms, generally not to exceed 30 days. Revenue is
recognized as all risks and rewards of transportation of the
vehicle are transferred to the owner during delivery.
Cost of Revenue – Pre-owned Vehicles Sales
Cost of
pre-owned vehicle sales to consumers and dealers primarily consists
of the cost to acquire pre-owned vehicles and the reconditioning
and transportation costs associated with preparing these vehicles
for resale. Vehicle acquisition costs are driven by the mix of
vehicles we acquire, the source of those vehicles and supply and
demand dynamics in the vehicle market. Reconditioning costs are
billed by third-party providers and include parts, labor, and other
repair expenses directly attributable to specific pre-owned
vehicles. Transportation costs consist of costs incurred to
transport the vehicles from the point of acquisition. Cost of
pre-owned vehicle sales also includes any necessary adjustments to
reflect vehicle inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable
value.
Cost of Revenue – Vehicle Logistics and Transportation
Services
Cost of
vehicle transportation and logistics services primarily include the
costs of independent third-party transporters to deliver a vehicle
from a point of origin to a designated destination.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Selling, general
and administrative expenses include costs and expenses for
compensation and benefits, advertising and marketing, development
and operating our product procurement and distribution system,
managing our logistics system, establishing our dealer partner
arrangements, and other corporate overhead expenses, including
expenses associated with technology development, legal, accounting,
finance, and business development. Selling, general and
administrative expenses also include the transportation cost
associated with selling vehicles but excludes the cost of
reconditioning, inspecting, and auction fees which are included in
Cost of revenue. Subject to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and
our efforts to preserve liquidity as described elsewhere in this
MD&A, we expect selling, general and administrative expenses
will continue to increase substantially in future periods as we
execute and aggressively expand our business through increased
marketing spending and the addition of management and support
personnel to ensure we adequately develop and maintain operational,
financial and management controls as well as our reporting systems
and procedures, but we anticipate selling,
general and administrative expenses will decline as a
percentage of sales revenue.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and
amortization is comprised of the: (i) amortization of capitalized and
acquired technology development; and (ii) depreciation of vehicles, leasehold
improvements, furniture and equipment. Depreciation and
amortization will continue to increase as continued investments are
made in connection with the expansion and growth of the
business.
Interest Expense
Interest expense
includes interest incurred on notes payable and other long-term
debt, which was used to fund startup costs and expenses, technology
development, inventory, our transportation fleet, property and
equipment and the acquisition of NextGen.
28
Seasonality
The
volume of vehicles sold will generally fluctuate from
quarter-to-quarter. This seasonality is caused by several factors
including weather, the timing of pre-owned vehicles available for
sale from selling consumers, the availability and quality of
vehicles, holidays, and the seasonality of the retail market for
pre-owned vehicles. As a result, revenue and operating expenses
related to volume will fluctuate accordingly on a quarterly basis.
The fourth calendar quarter typically experiences lower used
vehicle auction accessibility as well as additional costs
associated with the holidays and winter weather. Seasonality trends
have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in
a significant decline in the pre-owned powersports and automotive
industry, including our business and results of
operations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The
following table provides our results of operations for the

Three-Months Ended March 31, 2020 Versus 2019
Total
revenue decreased by $80,499,188 to $137,337,159 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $217,836,347 for the same period
of 2019. The decrease in sales was primarily due to a decrease in
the total number of pre-owned vehicles sold to 7,420 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to 12,103 for the
same period of 2019, which was partially
offset by an increase in the average selling price per unit sold to
$8,214 from $8,165 for powersports and $24,687 from $21,682 for
automotive. The decrease in vehicles sold and increase in
average selling price per unit in our powersports and automotive
segments was a result of: (i) continued implementation of our
previously disclosed disciplined approach to sales volume as we
take prescriptive steps to accelerate profitability; (ii) the
adverse
impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from sheltering-in-place
and significantly reduced commercial activity; (iii) the
significant
damage to the Company's operating facilities and automotive
inventory held for sale in Nashville as a result of the
March 3, 2020 tornado; and (iv) reduced per
vehicle advertising expenditures. As the impact of
COVID-19 abates over time, we anticipate that unit sales will
return to or exceed levels experienced in January and February of
2020 as we increase penetration in existing markets and launch new
markets, however we can provide no assurance as to when and how
quickly COVID-19 impacts will abate.

Total
cost of revenue decreased $64,794,464 to $140,650,915 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $205,444,668 for the same period
of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the
number of pre-owned vehicles sold for the three-months ended March
31, 2020 as compared to the same period of 2019 offset by
a
$12,808,618 adjustments to reflect the write down of vehicle
inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value at March 31,
2020 resulting from the the significant damage to
the Company's operating facilities and automotive inventory held
for sale in Nashville as a result of the March 3, 2020
tornado and the negative impact on our sales channels from
COVID-19 and related effects of sheltering-in-place and
significantly reduced commercial activity. The decrease in
total vehicles sold in our powersports and automotive segments was
a result of: (i) continued implementation of our more disciplined
approach to sales volume; (ii) the adverse impact
in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from sheltering-in-place and
significantly reduced commercial activity; and (iii) the
significant
damage to the Company's operating facilities and automotive
inventory held for sale in Nashville as a result of the
March 3, 2020 tornado. Powersports total cost
of revenue decreased by $3,391,270 to $20,558,286 for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2020 compared to $23,949,556 for the same period in

Powersports Vehicle Revenue
Total
powersports vehicle revenue decreased by $3,790,079 to $23,139,080 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $26,929,159 for the same period of 2019. The
decline in powersports revenue was primarily due to the decrease in
the number of pre-owned vehicles sold to 2,817 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 3,298 for the same
period of 2019, which was partially offset by an increase in the
average selling price per vehicle to $8,214 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 from $8,165 for the same period of 2019. The
decrease in vehicles sold and increase in average selling price per
unit was a result of: (i) our more disciplined approach to sales
volume as we take prescriptive steps to accelerate profitability;
(ii) the
adverse impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial activity;
and (iii) reduced per vehicle advertising expenditures. As the

will return to or exceed levels experienced in January and February
of 2020 as we increase penetration in existing markets and launch

vehicle revenue decreased by $3,391,270 to $20,558,286 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 and consisted of (i) 2,817 pre-owned vehicles at an average
acquisition cost of $6,830; (ii) reconditioning cost of $215,139;
(iii) transportation costs of $757,683; (iv) other cost of sales of $345,469
not attributed to a specific vehicle sold during the quarter; which
included $340,268 of adjustments to
reflect the write down of vehicle inventory to the lower of cost or
net realizable value at March 31, 2020 resulting from the negative
impact on our sales channels from COVID-19 and related effects of
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial
activity. For the
three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the $23,949,556
cost of vehicle revenue
consisted of: (i) the acquisition cost of vehicles sold to
consumers and dealers of $22,939,333 from the sale of 3,298
pre-owned vehicles to consumers and dealers that had an average
acquisition cost of $6,956; (ii) reconditioning costs of $239,678;
and (iii) transportation costs of $584,352; and (iv) other cost of

Powersports Gross Profit
Powersport vehicle
gross profit decreased by $398,898 to $2,580,794 for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2020 compared to $2,979,603 for the same period in
2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the number of
vehicles sold partially offset by an increase in gross profit per
unit sold to $1,039 or a gross margin of 12.6% compared to $960, or
a gross margin of 11.8% for the same period in 2019. While we did
experience a negative impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting
from sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial
activity, the increase in gross profit and the increase in:
(i) gross profit per unit; and (ii) gross margin per unit for the
three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period of
2019 was a result of: (i) our more disciplined approach to
sales volume; and (ii) a shift in
inventory mix available for sale resulting in higher average sales
prices.

ended March 31, 2020 compared to $190,907,188 for the same period

decrease in the number of vehicles sold to 4,603 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 8,805 for the same
period of 2019, which was partially offset by an increase in the

$18,150,549 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $21,565,124 for the

primarily due to the decrease in the number of vehicles sold
to 646 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to
863 for the same period of 2019, which was partially offset by an
increase in the average selling price per vehicle to $28,097 for
the three-months ended March 31, 2020 from $24,989 for the same
period of 2019. The decrease in vehicles sold and increase in

three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $169,342,064 for the
same period of 2019. The decline in automotive revenue was
primarily due to the decrease in the number of vehicles sold
to 3,957 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to

increase in the average selling price per vehicle to $24,273 for

sold, partially offset by an increase in the unit cost per unit of
vehicles sold for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020
compared to the same period of 2019, and net realizable value
adjustments to March 31, 2020 inventory of $12,616,955 to reflect:

loss in value of vehicles partially damaged and subject to repair;
and (ii) $878,542 for the write down of vehicle inventory to the

decrease was primarily due to an decrease in both the number of and
the unit cost of vehicles sold for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2020 compared to the same period of 2019, and a net
realizable value adjustments to March 31, 2020 inventory to reflect
the: (i) impairment loss on inventory for vehicles that were
a total loss and for loss in value of vehicles partially damaged
and subject to repair; and
(ii) write down of vehicle inventory to the lower of cost or net
realizable value at March 31, 2020 resulting from the negative
impact on our sales channels from COVID-19 and related effects of
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial activity.
Total cost of vehicle revenue for units sold to consumers for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 consisted of: (i) the
acquisition cost of vehicles sold to consumers of $15,034,392 from
the sale of 646 pre-owned vehicles at an average
acquisition cost of $23,273; (ii) reconditioning cost of $174,984;
(iii) transportation costs of $266,639; and (iv) other cost of sales of $0.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 the
$19,332,268 cost of
vehicle revenue sold to consumers consisted of: (i) the acquisition
cost of vehicles sold to consumers of $17,968,692 from the sale of
8,805 pre-owned vehicles to consumers that had an average
acquisition cost of $21,871; (ii) reconditioning costs of $173,602;
(iii) transportation costs of $283,131; and (iv) other cost of
sales of $0.
34
The cost of vehicle revenue from unit
sales to dealers decreased by $70,332,270 to $91,807,285 for the three-month period ended March
31, 2020 compared to $162,139,555 for the same period of 2019. The
decrease was primarily due to an decrease in both the number of and
the unit cost of vehicles sold for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2020 compared to the same period of 2019 and a net
realizable value adjustments to the March 31, 2020 inventory to
reflect the: (i) impairment loss on inventory for vehicles
that were a total loss and for loss in value of vehicles partially
damaged and subject to repair; and (ii) write down of vehicle
inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value at March 31,
2020 resulting from the negative impact on our sales channels from
COVID-19 and related effects of sheltering-in-place and
significantly reduced commercial activity. Total cost of vehicle
revenue sold to dealers for the three-months ended March 31, 2020
consisted of: (i) the acquisition cost of vehicles sold to
dealers of $89,966,425 from the sale of 4,603 pre-owned vehicles at an average
acquisition cost of $22,736; (ii) reconditioning cost of $452,768;
(iii) transportation costs of $1,388,092; and (iv) other cost of sales of
$1,070,205, which included $878,542 of adjustments to reflect the
write down of vehicle inventory to the lower of net realizable
value at March 31, 2020, resulting from the negative impact on our
sales channels from COVID-19 and related effects of
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial activity.
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 the
$162,139,555 cost of
vehicle revenue for units sold to dealers consisted of: (i) the

$792,940; (iii) transportation costs of $2,228,847; and (iv) other
cost of sales of $23,289.
Automotive Gross Profit
Excluding the
$11,738,413 impairment loss discussed above, total automotive
vehicle gross profit decreased by $3,567,502 to
$5,844,574
for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to
$9,412,076
for the
same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease
in the number of vehicles sold partially offset by an increase in
gross profit per unit sold of $308 or a gross margin of 5.6%
compared to $1,072, or a gross margin of 4.9% for the same period
in 2019. The decrease in gross profit and the increase in:
(i) gross profit per unit; and (ii) gross margin per unit for the
three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period of
2019 was a result of: (i) our more disciplined approach to sales
volume;(ii)
the negative impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial activity;
and (iii) a shift in inventory mix available for sale
resulting in higher average sales prices.
Total automotive
vehicle gross profit from sales to consumers increased by $250,015
to $2,482,871
for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to
$2,232,856
for the
same period in 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase
in gross profit per unit sold of $677 or a gross margin of 12.0%
compared to $2,587, or a gross margin of 10.4% for the same period
in 2019. The increase in total gross profit from the sale to
consumers was offset by a decline in the number of units sold for
the three-months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the same
period in 2019. The increase in gross profit, gross margin
per unit and decrease in unit sales for the three months ended
March 31, 2020 as compared to the same period of 2019 was a result
of: (i) our more disciplined approach to sales volume; (ii) the negative
impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from sheltering-in-place
and significantly reduced commercial activity; (iii) a
reduction in unit sales resulting from the significant damage to
the Company's operating facilities and inventory held for sale in
Nashville as a result of the March 3, 2020 tornado;
and
(iv) a shift in inventory mix available for sale resulting
in higher average sales prices.
Total automotive
vehicle gross profit from sales to dealers decreased by $3,817,516
to $3,361,704
for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2020 compared to
$7,179,220
for the
same period in 2019. The decrease was in part due to a decrease in
the number of vehicles sold partially offset by an increase in
gross profit per unit sold of $165 or a gross margin of 4.4%
compared to $907, or a gross margin of 4.3% for the same period in
2019. In addition, other cost of sales included $878,542 of
adjustments to reflect the write down of vehicle inventory to the
lower of cost or net realizable value at March 31, 2020, resulting
from the negative impact on our sales channels from COVID-19 and
related effects of sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced
commercial activity. The decrease in gross profit and the
increase in: (i) gross profit per unit; and (ii) gross margin per
unit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the
same period of 2019 was a result of: (i) our more disciplined
approach to sales volume; (ii) the negative
impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from sheltering-in-place
and significantly reduced commercial activity; (iii) a
reduction in unit sales resulting from the significant damage to
the Company's operating facilities and inventory held for sale in
Nashville as a result of the March 3, 2020 tornado;
and
(iv) a shift in inventory mix available for sale resulting
in higher average sales prices.

Revenue
Total
revenue increased by $814,171 to $8,990,181 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $8,176,010 for the same period of 2019. The
increase in total revenue for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2020 resulted from the transport
of 21,027 vehicles at an
average revenue per vehicle delivered of $428 compared to revenue
from the transport of 20,471 vehicles at an average
revenue per vehicle delivered of $399 for the same period of 2019. The increase in vehicles
transported and increase in average revenue per vehicle delivered
was a result of: (i) our more disciplined approach to sales volume
as we take prescriptive steps to accelerate profitability;
(ii) the
negative impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial activity;
and (iii) increased emphasis on sales through implementation of
sales performance improvement plans. Following COVID-19, we
anticipate that unit sales will return to or exceed levels
experienced in January and February of 2020 as we increase
penetration in existing markets and launch new markets, however we
can provide no assurance as to when and how quickly COVID-19
impacts will abate.
In the
normal course of operations, the Company utilizes transportation
services of Wholesale Express. For the three-months ended March 31,
2020 and 2019 intercompany freight services provided by Express to
the Company were $1,902,590
and $2,834,598, respectively and was eliminated in the
condensed consolidated financial statements.
Vehicle Logistics and Transportation Services Cost of
Revenue
Total
cost of revenue increased by $414,029 to $6,990,649 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $6,576,620 for the same period of
2019. The increase in total
cost of revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020
resulted from the transport of 21,027 vehicles at an average cost per vehicle
delivered of $333 compared to the cost to transport 20,008
vehicles at an average cost
per vehicle delivered of $321 for the same period of
2019. The
increase in vehicles transported and increase in cost per vehicle delivered was a
result of: (i) our more disciplined approach to sales volume as we
take prescriptive steps to accelerate profitability; (ii) the negative impact in March 2020
of COVID-19 resulting from sheltering-in-place and significantly
reduced commercial activity; and (iii) additional costs and
expenses associated providing expanding logistic and transportation
services to new markets.
36
Included in cost of
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 31, 2019
was freight services purchases by the Company from Wholesale
Express of $1,902,590 and $2,834,598, respectively and was
eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial
statements.
Vehicle Logistics and Transport Services Gross Profit
Total
gross profit for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 was
$1,999,533 or
$95 per unit
transported as compared to $1,599,390 or $78 per unit for the same
period in 2019. All amounts related to transport services provided
by Wholesale Express to the Company have been eliminated upon
consolidation.

Selling, general
and administrative expenses decreased by $2,383,590 to $18,056,426
for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $20,440,016
for the same period of 2019. The decrease was a result of: (i) our
continued approach to taking prescriptive steps to accelerate
profitability, which resulted in the sale of fewer vehicles and a
corresponding reduction in related selling expenses and marketing
spend for the three-month ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the
same period of 2019;(ii) a reduction in automotive vehicle sales
resulting from the significant damage to the Company's operating
facilities and inventory held for sale in Nashville as a result of
the March 3, 2020 tornado;(iii) the negative impact in March 2020
of COVID-19 resulting from sheltering-in-place and significantly
reduced commercial activity, resulting in a temporary reduction in
discretionary growth expenditures on new hiring, travel,
facilities, and information technology investments. In addition we
reduced our staffing and applied and adjusted purchasing levels to
align with demand and market conditions.
Compensation and
related costs increased by $738,887 to $7,793,150 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $7,054,263 for the
same period of 2019. The increase is primarily due to additional
headcount associated with our finance group. The company had 258
employees at March 31, 2020 as compared to 241 employees on March
31, 2019.
In
response to the impact of COVID-19 on our business, in early April
2020 we significantly reduced our staffing by laying off 169
associates in an effort to position our business to be lean and
flexible in this period of lower demand and higher uncertainty with
the goal of preparing the Company for a strong recovery as the
crisis is contained. As the impact of COVID-19 abates over
time, and unit sales return to or exceed levels experienced in
January and February of 2020 we will take a measured approach to
increasing our headcount, which will result in an increase in
selling and marketing expenses in absolute dollar terms but a
decrease in these expenses as a percentage of total revenue.
However we can provide no assurance as to when and how quickly
COVID-19 impacts will abate.
Advertising and
marketing decreased by $2,543,417 to $2,948,155 for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $5,491,572 for the
same period of 2019. The decrease was a result of: (i) our
continued approach to taking prescriptive steps to accelerate
profitability, which resulted in the sale of fewer vehicles and a
corresponding reduction in related selling expenses and marketing
spend for the three-month ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the
same period of 2019; (ii) a reduction
in automotive vehicle sales resulting from the significant damage to
the Company's operating facilities and inventory held for sale in
Nashville as a result of the March 3, 2020 tornado;
(iii) the
negative impact in March 2020 of COVID-19 resulting from
sheltering-in-place and significantly reduced commercial activity,
resulting in a temporary reduction in discretionary
marketing expenditures. As the impact of
COVID-19 abates over time, and unit sales return to or exceed
levels experienced in January and February of 2020 we will
take a measured approach to increasing our marketing spend, which
will result in an increase in marketing expenses in absolute dollar
terms but a decrease in marketing expense as a percentage of total
revenue. However we can provide
no assurance as to when and how quickly COVID-19 impacts will
abate.
37
As
we continue to gain share in our addressable market, we expect
advertising and marketing spending will continue to increase in
absolute dollar terms but will decrease as a percentage of total
revenue.
Professional fees
increased by $192,259 to
$842,703 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 compared
to $650,444 for the same period of 2019. The increase was primarily
a result of professional fees and costs incurred in connection with
our insurance claims and other matters attributed to the Nashville
Tornado, and legal, accounting and other professional fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the activities associated with
the expansion of the business. Fees and expenses were incurred for:
(i) equity financings; (ii) debt financings; (iii) general
corporate matters; (iv) the preparation of quarterly and annual
financial statements; and (v) the preparation and filing of
regulatory reports required of the Company for public reporting
purposes For additional information, see Note 4 –
"Acquisitions," Note 8 - "Notes Payable and Lines of Credit," Note
9 –"Convertible Notes," and Note 11 - "Stockholders' Equity,"
in the accompanying Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Technology
development expenses increased $129,431 to $622,144 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $492,713 for the same period of
2019. The increase was a result of a significant increase in
headcount and third-party contractors to meet an increase level of
technology development projects and initiatives. Total technology
costs and expenses incurred for three-months ended March 31, 2020
were $911,210 of
which $290,376 was
capitalized. Total technology costs and expenses incurred for the
three-months ended March 31, 2019 were $1,372,542 of which $879,829
was capitalized. For the three-months ended March 31, 2020, a
third-party contractor billed $241,757 of the total technology
development costs as compared to $717,719 for the same period of
2019. The amortization of capitalized technology development costs
for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 was $437,943 as compared to $291,746
for the same period of 2019. In response to the impact of COVID-19
on our business in early April 2020 we temporarily reduced
discretionary growth expenditures which included information
technology investments. As the impact of
COVID-19 abates over time, and unit sales return to or exceed
levels experienced in January and February of 2020 we will
take a measured approach to increasing our technology development
expenses as we continue to upgrade and enhance our technology
infrastructure, invest in our products, expand the functionality of
our platform and provide new product offerings. We also expect
technology development expenses to continue to be affected by
variations in the amount of capitalized internally developed
technology. However we can provide
no assurance as to when and how quickly COVID-19 impacts will
abate.
General and administrative
expenses decreased by $1,287,701 to $5,463,324 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $6,751,024 for the same period of
2019. The decrease was primarily a result of the sale of fewer
vehicle for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to
the same period of 2019, which resulted in a reduction of $801,886
in auction and floor plan fees for the three-months ended March 31,
2020 as compared to the same period of 2019. The decrease in
vehicle sales was primarily a result of our continued approach to
taking prescriptive steps to accelerate profitability, the impact
of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the significant damage to
the Company's operating facilities and inventory held for sale in
Nashville as a result of the March 3, 2020 tornado. In
addition, travel and other related business expenses, including
office supplies decreased $761,241 and rent and lease expense
increased $275,425 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 as
compared to the same period of 2019. As the impact of
COVID-19 abates over time, and unit sales return to or exceed
levels experienced in January and February of 2020 we will
take a measured approach to increasing general and administrative
spending, which will result in an increase in in general and
administrative expenses in absolute dollar terms but decrease as a
percentage of total revenue. However we can provide
no assurance as to when and how quickly COVID-19 impacts will
abate.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and
amortization increased by $140,770 to $522,995 for the three-months
ended March 31, 2020 compared to $382,225 for the same period of
2019. The increase in depreciation and amortization is a result of
the cumulative investments made in connection with the expansion
and growth of the business which for the three-months ended March
31, 2020 included capitalized technology acquisition and
development costs of $290,376. For the three-months ended March 31,
2020, amortization of capitalized technology development was
$437,943 as compared to $291,746 for the same period of 2019.
Depreciation and amortization on vehicle, furniture, equipment and
leasehold improvements was $85,052 as compared to $90,479 for the
same period of 2019.
Interest Expense
Interest expense
increased by $771,624 to $2,216,757 for the three-months ended
March 31, 2020 compared to $1,445,133 for the same period of 2019.
Interest expense consists of interest on the: (i) Hercules Loan;
(ii) Private Placement Notes; (iii) the subordinated secured
promissory note issued to NextGen (the "NextGen Note"); (iv) the
Credit Facility and the NextGear Credit Line (each as defined
below) (together, the "Line of Credit-Floor Plans"); (v) Notes;and
(vi) the notes issued in connection with the Autosport Acquisition
(the "Convertible Notes-Autosport"). The increase resulted from:
(i) interest on a higher level of debt outstanding; (ii) the
amortization of the beneficial conversion feature on the Private
Placement Notes; (iii) the amortization of the debt issuance costs
on Notes and Convertible Notes-Autosport; and (iv) amortization of
transaction costs on the Notes. Interest expense on the Private
Placement Notes for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 was
$91,893 and included $75,601 of debt discount amortization as
compared to interest expense of $73,328 which included $59,348 of
debt discount amortization for the same period of 2019. Interest
expense on the NextGen Note for the three-months ended March 31,
2020 was $21,927 as compared to $21,370 for the same period of
2019. Interest expense on the Line of Credit-Floor Plans for the
three-months ended March 31, 2020 was $777,552 as compared to
$827,199 for the same period of 2019. For the three months ended
March 31, 2020, interest expense on convertible notes was $51,560
and included $19,693 of debt discount amortization as compared to
interest expense of $39,745 which included $20,380 of debt discount

payment to Hercules Capital Inc. ("Hercules") of $11,134,696,
representing the principal, accrued and unpaid interest, fees,
costs and expenses outstanding under its Loan and Security
Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Hercules. In accordance with
the guidance in ASC 470-50, Debt, the Company accounted for the
extinguishment of the Hercules Loan Agreement as an extinguishment
and recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $1,499,250
for the year ended December 31, 2019 in the Consolidated Statements
of Operations included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the

Loss Contingencies and Insurance Recoveries
On
March 3, 2020, a severe tornado struck the greater Nashville area
causing significant damage to the Company's facilities including
contents and inventory held for sale. The Company maintains
insurance coverage for damage to its facilities and inventory, as
well as business interruption insurance. The Company continues in
the process of reviewing damages and coverages with its insurance
carriers. The loss comprises three components: (1) inventory loss,
currently assessed by the insurance carrier at approximately
$13,000,000; (2) building and personal property loss, primarily
impacting our leased facilities, currently assessed by the
insurance carrier at $3,369,087;
and (3) loss of business income, for which the company has coverage
in the amount of $6,000,000. All three components of the Company's
loss claim have been submitted to its insurers. The Company's
inventory claim is subject to a dispute with the carrier as to the
policy limits applicable to the loss. The building insurer has
agreed the total building and personal property loss is valued at
$3,801,203.
The insurer has agreed to pay $2,778,000 on the building and
personal property loss, reflecting limits of $2,783,000 net of a
$5,000 deductible. The insurer has made an interim payment on the
building and personal property loss of $2,269,507. Currently, there
is minimally an outstanding balance of $508,493 which will be paid
when replacement is finished, which is expected to be sometime
during of 2020. The loss of business income claim is ongoing and
remains in the process of negotiation, however, the insurer has
advanced $250,000 against the final settlement. The Company
believes there will be a recovery of all three loss components,
however no assurance can be given regarding the amounts, if any,
that will be ultimately recovered.
As a
result of the damage caused by the tornado the Company has
concluded that the utility of the inventory damaged by the storm is
impaired as a result of physical damage sustained. Whether the
impairment is caused by physical destruction or an adverse change
in the utility of the inventory, entities should assess whether an
inventory impairment or write-off is required in accordance with
ASC 330-10-35-1 through 35-11, which address adjustments of
inventory balances to the lower of cost or market and requires that
when there is evidence that the utility of goods will be less than
cost, the difference is recognized as a loss of the current
period. For the three-months ended March 31, 2020 the Company
has recorded an impairment loss on inventory of $11,738,413
comprised of $4,453,775 for vehicles that are a total loss and
$7,284,638 in loss in value for vehicle partially damaged and
subject to repair. The impairment loss is reported in cost of
revenue in the March 31, 2020 condensed consolidated statements of
operations. The Company has not recorded any recoveries that are
expected to be received from the insurance carrier since the final
amount and timing of the recovery has not been determined. Any such
recovery would be reported as a separate component of income from
continuing operations in the period in which such recovery is
recognizable or
when any such recoveries will be made.
Derivative Liability
In
connection with the issuance of the Old Notes, a derivative
liability was recorded at issuance with an interest make-whole
provision of $1,330,000. The derivative liability is remeasured at
each reporting date with any change in value being recorded in the
Statement of Operations; as of December 31, 2019, the
derivative liability was valued at $27,500. On January 14, 2020,
the Company completed the 2020 Note Offering whereby the
$30,000,000
of Old Notes were cancelled and exchanged for $30,000,000
New Notes. Also,
in the 2020 Note Offering, the Company sold an additional
$8,875,000 of New Notes yielding the Company net proceeds of
$8,272,375. Pursuant to ASC 470 the Company accounted for the
exchange as a note extinguishment where $27,500 remaining liability
was written off and the Company recorded a new $20,673 Make Whole
Derivative Liability as calculated under the Lattice Model. The
Make Whole Derivative is evaluated at the end of each reporting
period and adjustment to value are reflected on the Statement of
Operations, value of the derivative liability as of March 31, 2020
is $137,488. The
lattice model used using a “with-and-without
method,” where the value of the convertible senior notes
including the embedded derivative, is defined as the
“with”, and the value of the convertible senior notes
excluding the embedded derivative, is defined as the
“without” the inputs used include a range of prices
around the Company’s stock price on the date of valuation
($0.73 on January 14, 2020 and $0.23 on March 31, 2020), as well as
the Note conversion rate, maturity date, U.S. Treasury risk-free
interest rates over the entire 10-year yield curve, and estimated
stock price volatility (55% on January 14, 2020 and 95% on March
31, 2020).
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is
a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an
alternative to operating income or net income as a measure of
operating performance or cash flows or as a measure of liquidity.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily calculated the same
way by different companies and should not be considered a
substitute for or superior to U.S. GAAP.
39
Adjusted EBITDA is
defined as net loss adjusted to add back interest expense including
debt extinguishment and depreciation and amortization, and certain
charges and expenses, such as non-cash compensation costs,
acquisition related costs, derivative income, financing activities,
litigation expenses, severance, new business development costs,
technology implementation costs and expenses, and facility closure
and lease termination costs, as these charges and expenses are not
considered a part of our core business operations and are not an
indicator of ongoing, future company performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is
one of the primary metrics used by management to evaluate the
financial performance of our business. We present Adjusted EBITDA
because we believe it is frequently used by analysts, investors and
other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.
Further, we believe it is helpful in highlighting trends in our
operating results, because it excludes, among other things, certain
results of decisions that are outside the control of management,
while other measures can differ significantly depending on
long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure and
capital investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We
generate cash from the sale of used retail vehicles, the sale of
wholesale vehicles, and providing vehicle logistics and
transportation services for used vehicles. We generate additional
cash flows through our financing activities including our
short-term revolving inventory floor plan facilities, the issuance
of long-term notes, and new issuances of equity. Historically, cash
generated from financing activities has funded growth and expansion
and strategic initiatives and we expect this to continue in the
future.
Our
ability to service our debt and fund working capital, capital
expenditures, and business development efforts will depend on our
ability to generate cash from operating and financing activities,
which is subject to our future operating performance, as well as to
general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory,
and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control. Our
future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including
our rate of revenue growth, our
expansion of our various lines of business and the timing and
extent of our spending to support our technology and software
development efforts.
We had
the following liquidity resources available as of March 31, 2020

On
January 14, 2020, the Company closed a public offering at a public
price of $11.40 per share (the "2020 Public Offering"). On January
16, 2020, the Company received notice of the Underwriters' intent
to exercise the over-allotment option in full (the "Over-allotment
Exercise"). On January 17, 2020, the Company closed the
Over-allotment Exercise. The Over-allotment Exercise increased the
aggregate number of shares sold in the 2020 Public Offering to
1,035,000. Including the Over-allotment Exercise, proceeds from the
2020 Public Offering, after deducting the 7.0% underwriter’s

$10,898,070.
40
Also on
January 10, 2020, the Company entered into a Note Exchange and
Subscription Agreement, as amended by the Joinder Agreement, with
the investors in the 2019 Note Offering (as defined below),
pursuant to which the Company agreed to complete (i) a note
exchange pursuant to which $30,000,000 of the Old Notes (as defined
below) would be cancelled in exchange for a new series of 6.75%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the "New Notes"), and (ii) the
issuance of additional New Notes in a private placement in reliance
on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 506 of
Regulation D of the Securities Act as a sale not involving any
public offering. On January 14, 2020, the Company closed the 2020
Note Offering. The proceeds for the
2020 Note Offering, after deducting for the payment of accrued
interest and offering-related expenses, but exclusive of company
costs were $8,272,375.
As of
March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, excluding operating

Operating Activities
Net
cash used in operating activities increased $12,990,519 to
$19,467,259 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020, as compared
to the same period in 2019. The increase in net cash used is
primarily due to a $13,762,037 increase in our net loss offset by a
$12,558,739 increase in non-cash expense items less a decrease in
net operating assets and liabilties of $11,787,221. The increase in
the net loss for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 was
primarily a result of a net
realizable value adjustments to March 31, 2020 inventory of
$12,616,955 to reflect a non-cash impairment loss on damaged and
totaled inventory and a write down of vehicle inventory to the
lower of cost or net realizable value at March 31,
2020.
Investing Activities
Net
cash used in investing activities decreased $1,251,467 to $422,742
for the three-months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the same
period in 2019. The decrease in cash used for investment activities
was primarily due to a decrease of $835,000 in cash used for
acquisitions, and a decrease in costs incurred for technology
development of $589,453 and increased property and equipment
purchases of $132,366.
Financing Activities
Net
cash provided by financing activities increased $17,866,038 to
$21,150,210 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020, as
compared to the same period in 2019. This increase is primarily a
result of the net proceeds of $8,272,375 received from the exchange
of the $30,000,000 of Old Notes for the $30,000,000 of New Notes
and the issuance of an additional $8,750,000 of New Notes, and the
2020 Public Offering of 1,035,000 shares of the Company's Class B
stock that resulted in net proceeds to the company of $10,780,080.
The proceeds from these transactions were used to continue the
development of the Company's business and for working capital
purposes.
41
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of
March 31, 2020, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements
that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future
effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition,
revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to
investors.
Subsequent Events
Reverse Stock Split
On May
18, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Change to the
Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of
State of the State of Nevada to effect a one-for-twenty reverse
stock split of its issued and outstanding Class A Common Stock and
Class B Common Stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). The Reverse Stock
Split was effective at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on May 20, 2020.
No fractional shares were issued as a result of the Reverse Stock
Split. Any fractional shares that would have resulted from the
Reverse Stock Split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. The
authorized preferred stock of the Company was not impacted by the
Reverse Stock Split. Following the Reverse Stock Split, the Company
has outstanding 50,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and
approximately 2,162,696 shares of Class B Common Stock. On May 20,
2020, the Company’s Class B Common Stock commenced trading on
the Nasdaq Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis. The Company
has retrospectively adjusted the 2019 condensed consolidated
financial statements for loss per share and share amounts as a
result of the Reverse Stock Split.
PPP Loan
On May
1, 2020, the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries Wholesale,
Inc. and Wholesale Express, LLC (together, the "Subsidiaries," and
with the Company, the "Borrowers"), each entered into loan
agreements and related promissory notes (the "SBA Loan Documents")
to receive U.S. Small Business Administration Loans (the "SBA
Loans") pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the "PPP")
established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic
Security Act (the "CARES Act"), in the aggregate amount of
$5,176,845 (the "Loan Proceeds"). The Borrowers received the Loan
Proceeds on May 1, 2020. Under the SBA Loan Documents, the SBA
Loans have a fixed interest rate of 1.0%, repayment begins six
months from the date of disbursement of each SBA Loan, and the SBA
Loans mature two years from the date of first disbursement. There
is no prepayment penalty.
Pursuant to the
terms of the SBA Loan Documents, the Borrowers may apply for
forgiveness of the amount due on the SBA Loans in an amount equal
to the sum of the following costs incurred by the Borrowers during
the eight-week period (or any other period that may be authorized
by the U.S. Small Business Administration) beginning on the date of
first disbursement of the SBA Loans: payroll costs, any payment of
interest on a covered mortgage obligation, payment on a covered
rent obligation, and any covered utility payment. The amount of SBA
Loan forgiveness shall be calculated in accordance with the
requirements of the PPP, including the provisions of Section 1106
of the CARES Act, although no more than 40% of the amount forgiven
can be attributable to non-payroll costs. No assurance is provided
that forgiveness for any portion of the SBA Loans will be
obtained.
The
promissory notes evidencing the SBA Loans contain customary events
of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults,
breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the
promissory notes. The occurrence of an event of default may result
in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all
amounts owing from the Borrowers, and/or filing suit and obtaining
judgment against the Borrowers.
Form 10-Q Extension
On May
14, 2020, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to
announce that the Company’s operations and business continued
to experience disruption due to the unprecedented conditions
surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic spreading
throughout the United States, and management was unable to timely
review and prepare the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 2020. As a result, the Company indicated
its intent to delay the filing of the Quarterly Report in reliance
on the SEC March 25, 2020 Order (which extended and superseded a
prior order issued on March 4, 2020), pursuant to the Order, which
allows for the delay of certain filings required under the Exchange
Act. The Company relied on the Order for the filing of this Form
10-Q.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Refer
to Note 1 — Description of Business and Significant
Accounting Policies, included in Part I, Item 1, Financial
Statements, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for accounting
pronouncements and material changes to our critical accounting
policies since December 31, 2019. There have been no other
material changes to our critical accounting policies and use of
estimates from those described under "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included
in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
42
Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as information included in
oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by
us, contain statements that constitute "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts
nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based on
our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the
future of our business, future plans and strategies, and other
future conditions. Forward-looking statements can be identified by
words such as "anticipate," "believe," "envision," "estimate,"
"expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "predict," "project," "target,"
"potential," "will," "would," "could," "should," "continue,"
"ongoing," "contemplate," and other similar expressions, although
not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others,
statements we make regarding:
●
We have a limited
operating history and we cannot assure you we will achieve or
maintain profitability;
●
Our annual and
quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly or may fall
below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, each of
which may cause our stock price to fluctuate or
decline;
●
The initial
development and progress of our business to date may not be
indicative of our future growth prospects and, if we continue to
grow rapidly, we may not be able to manage our growth
effectively;
●
There is
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern;
●
We may require
additional capital to pursue our business objectives and respond to
business opportunities, challenges or unforeseen circumstances. If
capital is not available on terms acceptable to us or at all, we
may not be able to develop and grow our business as anticipated and
our business, operating results and financial condition may be
harmed;
●
We may fail to
maintain our listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market;
●
The success of our
business relies heavily on our marketing and branding efforts,
especially with respect to the RumbleOn website and our branded
mobile applications, and these efforts may not be
successful;
●
The failure to
develop and maintain our brand could harm our ability to grow
unique visitor traffic and to expand our regional partner
network;
●
We rely on Internet
search engines to drive traffic to our website, and if we fail to
appear prominently in the search results, our traffic would
decline, and our business would be adversely affected;
●
A significant
disruption in service on our website or of our mobile applications
could damage our reputation and result in a loss of consumers,
which could harm our business, brand, operating results, and
financial condition;
●
We may be unable to
maintain or grow relationships with information data providers or
may experience interruptions in the data feeds they provide, which
may limit the information that we are able to provide to our users
and regional partners as well as adversely affect the timeliness of
such information and may impair our ability to attract or retain
consumers and our regional partners and to timely invoice all
parties;
●
If we are unable to
provide a compelling vehicle buying experience to our users, the
number of transactions between our users, RumbleOn and dealers will
decline, and our revenue and results of operations will suffer
harm;
●
If key industry
participants, including powersports and recreation vehicle dealers
and regional auctions, perceive us in a negative light or our
relationships with them suffer harm, our ability to operate and
grow our business and our financial performance may be
damaged;
●
The growth of our
business relies significantly on our ability to increase the number
of regional partners in our network such that we are able to
increase the number of transactions between our users and regional
partners. Failure to do so would limit our growth;
●
Our ability to grow
our complementary product offerings may be limited, which could
negatively impact our development, growth, revenue and financial
performance;
43
●
We rely on
third-party financing providers to finance a portion of our
customers' vehicle purchases;
●
Our sales of
powersports/recreation vehicles may be adversely impacted by
increased supply of and/or declining prices for pre-owned vehicles
and excess supply of new vehicles;
●
We rely on a number
of third parties to perform certain operating and administrative
functions for the Company;
●
We participate in a
highly competitive market, and pressure from existing and new
companies may adversely affect our business and operating
results;
●
Seasonality or
weather trends may cause fluctuations in our unique visitors,
revenue and operating results;
●
We collect,
process, store, share, disclose and use personal information and
other data, and our actual or perceived failure to protect such
information and data could damage our reputation and brand and harm
our business and operating results;
●
Failure to
adequately protect our intellectual property could harm our
business and operating results;
●
We may in the
future be subject to intellectual property disputes, which are
costly to defend and could harm our business and operating
results;
●
We operate in a
highly regulated industry and are subject to a wide range of
federal, state and local laws and regulations. Failure to comply
with these laws and regulations could have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition;
●
We provide
transportation services and rely on external logistics to transport
vehicles. Thus, we are subject to business risks and costs
associated with the transportation industry. Many of these risks
and costs are out of our control, and any of them could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations;
●
We depend on key
personnel to operate our business, and if we are unable to retain,
attract and integrate qualified personnel, our ability to develop
and successfully grow our business could be harmed;
●
We may acquire
other companies or technologies, which could divert our
management's attention, result in additional dilution to our
stockholders and otherwise disrupt our operations and harm our
operating results;
●
The recent outbreak
of COVID-19 will likely have a significant negative
impact on our business, sales, results of operations, financial
condition, and liquidity;
●
We may be unable to
realize the anticipated synergies related to the Acquisitions,
which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations;
●
We may be unable to
successfully integrate the Wholesale Entities' business and realize
the anticipated benefits of the Acquisitions;
●
Our business
relationships, those of the Wholesale Entities or the combined
company may be subject to disruption due to uncertainty associated
with the Acquisitions;
●
If we are unable to
maintain effective internal control over financial reporting for
the combined companies, we may fail to prevent or detect material
misstatements in our financial statements, in which case investors
may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our
financial statements;
●
The Wholesale
Entities may have liabilities that are not known, probable or
estimable at this time;
●
As a result of the
Acquisitions, we and the Wholesale Entities may be unable to retain
key employees;
●
The trading price
for our Class B Common Stock may be volatile and could be subject
to wide fluctuations in per share price;
44
●
Our principal
stockholders and management own a significant percentage of our
stock and an even greater percentage of the Company's voting power
and will be able to exert significant control over matters subject
to stockholder approval;
●
If securities or
industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our
business, or if they issue an adverse or misleading opinion
regarding our stock, our stock price and trading volume could
decline;
●
Because our Class B
Common Stock may be deemed a low-priced "penny" stock, an
investment in our Class B Common Stock should be considered high
risk and subject to marketability restrictions;
●
We do not currently
or for the foreseeable future intend to pay dividends on our common
stock;
●
We are subject to
reduced reporting requirements so long as we are considered a
"smaller reporting company" and we cannot be certain if the reduced
disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies
will make our common stock less attractive to
investors;
●
If we fail to
maintain an effective system of internal control over financial
reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial
results or prevent fraud. As a result, stockholders could lose
confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would
harm our business and the trading price of our common
stock;
●
Anti-takeover
provisions may limit the ability of another party to acquire us,
which could cause our stock price to decline;
●
Although the Notes
are referred to as convertible senior Notes, the Notes are
effectively subordinated to any of our future secured debt and
structurally subordinated to any liabilities of our
subsidiaries;
●
The Notes are our
obligations only and a substantial portion of our operations are
conducted through, and a substantial portion of our consolidated
assets are held by, our subsidiaries;
●
Operating our
business requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have
sufficient cash flow from our business to pay the Notes and any
other debt;
●
Recent and future
regulatory actions and other events may adversely affect the
trading price and liquidity of the Notes;
●
The trading price
for our Class B Common Stock may be volatile and could be subject
to wide fluctuations in per share price which could adversely
impact the trading price of the Notes;
●
We may incur
substantially more debt in the future or take other actions which
would intensify the risks discussed in these risk
factors;
●
We may not have the
ability to raise the funds necessary to settle the Notes in cash on
a conversion, to repurchase the Notes on a fundamental change, or
to repay the Notes at maturity. In addition, the terms of our
future debt may contain limitations on our ability to pay cash on
conversion or repurchase of the Notes;
●
Redemption may
adversely affect the return on the Notes;
●
The conditional
conversion feature of the Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect
our financial condition and operating results;
●
Conversion of the
Notes may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders or may
otherwise depress the market price of our Class B Common
Stock;
●
Future sales of our
Class B Common Stock or equity-linked securities in the public
market could lower the market price for our Class B Common Stock
and adversely impact the trading price of the Notes;
45
●
Holders of Notes
are not entitled to any rights with respect to our Class B Common
Stock, but they will be subject to all changes made with respect to
them to the extent our conversion obligation includes shares of our
Class B Common Stock;
●
The conditional
conversion feature of the Notes could result in holders receiving
less than the value of our Class B Common Stock into which the
Notes would otherwise be convertible;
●
On conversion of
the Notes, holders may receive less valuable consideration than
expected because the value of our Class B Common Stock may decline
after holders exercise their conversion rights but before we settle
our conversion obligation;
●
The increase in the
conversion rate for Notes converted in connection with a make-whole
fundamental change or a notice of redemption may not adequately
compensate holders for any lost value of their Notes as a result of
such transaction or redemption;

Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March
31, 2020. We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are
designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required
to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that
such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide
only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and
management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the
cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and
procedures.
Based
on the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of March 31, 2020.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting
that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting. We have not
experienced any material impact to our internal control over
financial reporting despite the fact that most of our employees are
working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continually
monitoring and assessing the potential impact of COVID-19 on our
internal control to minimize the impact on their design and
operating effectiveness.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and
Procedures
In
designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter
how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable
assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition,
the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the
fact that there are resource constraints and that management is
required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of
possible controls and procedures relative to their
costs.
