The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
TANDY LEATHER FACTORY, INC.
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These financial statements include the accounts of Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Unless the context indicates otherwise, references to “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the consolidated operations of Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and/or six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Inventory. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and is accounted for on the “first in, first out” method. Based on negotiations with vendors, title generally passes to us when merchandise is put on board. Merchandise to which we have title but have not yet received is recorded as “Inventory in transit”. In addition, the value of inventory is periodically reduced for slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on management's review of items on hand compared to their estimated future demand.
The components of inventory consist of the following:
As of
|
|||
June 30, 2010
|
December 31, 2009
|

Inventory on hand:
|

Goodwill and Other Intangibles. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination and is required to be tested for impairment on an annual basis, absent indicators of impairment during the interim. A two-step process is used to test for goodwill impairment. The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures the impairment. We have elected to perform the annual analysis during the fourth calendar quarter of each year. As of December 31, 2009, management determined that the present value of the discounted estimated future cash flows of the stores associated with the goodwill is sufficient to support their respective goodwill balances. No indicators of impairment were identified during the first half of 2010.
A summary of changes in our goodwill for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

We recorded amortization expense of $30,312 during the first six months of 2010 compared to $25,645 during the first half of 2009. All of our intangible assets are subject to amortization under U.S. GAAP. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the succeeding five years is as follows:

Revenue Recognition. Our sales generally occur via two methods: (1) at the counter in our stores, and (2) shipment by common carrier. Sales at the counter are recorded and title passes as transactions occur. Otherwise, sales are recorded and title passes when the merchandise is shipped to the customer. Our shipping terms are FOB shipping point.
We offer an unconditional satisfaction guarantee to our customers and accept all product returns. Net sales represent gross sales less negotiated price allowances, product returns, and allowances for defective merchandise.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued guidance titled “Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements” that amends existing disclosure requirements by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. Except for the separate level 3 disclosures, this guidance was effective for financial statements issued for interim or fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009 and our adoption of it on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. The rest of the guidance is effective for financial statements issued for interim or fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Since these are disclosure requirements only, our adoption will not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
2. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
All current fixed maturity securities are classified as “available for sale” and are reported at carrying value, which approximates fair value. We have determined that our investment securities are available to support current operations and, accordingly, have classified such securities as current assets without regard to contractual maturities. Investments at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 consisted of certificates of deposit. The contractual maturities of the certificates of deposit as of June 30, 2010 are shown below. Actual maturities may differ from the contractual maturities because debtors may have the right to call obligations with or without call penalties.

We measure fair value as an exit price, which is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for considering such assumptions, accounting standards establish a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1 – observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3 – unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
Classification of the financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We classify our certificates of deposit as level 2 assets and have maintained consistency in valuation techniques during the period ended June 30, 2010.
3. NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT
On July 31, 2007, we entered into a Credit Agreement and Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a credit facility of up to $5,500,000 to facilitate our purchase of real estate consisting of a 195,000 square foot building situated on 30 acres of land located at 1900 SE Loop 820 in Fort Worth, Texas. Proceeds in the amount of $4,050,000 were used to fund the purchase of the property. On April 30, 2008, the principal balance was rolled into a 10-year term note with a 20-year amortization and accrues interest at a rate of 7.10% per annum.
At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the amount outstanding under the above agreement consisted of the following:

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We have one stock option plan which provides for annual stock option grants to non-employee directors with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. 9,000 options were awarded to directors in the second quarter of 2010. These options vest and become exercisable six months from the option grant date. We had two other stock option plans from 1995 which provided for stock option grants to officers, key employees and non-employee directors. These plans expired in 2005. The expiration of the plans has no effect on the options previously granted. Options outstanding and exercisable were granted at a stock option price which was not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date the option was granted and no option has a term in excess of ten years.
We recognized share based compensation expense of $18,388 and $0 for each of the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $18,388 and $2,540 for each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, as a component of operating expenses.
During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the stock option activity under our stock option plans was as follows:

6. CASH DIVIDEND
In May 2010, our Board of Directors authorized a $0.75 per share special one-time cash dividend that was paid to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 3, 2010. We released the funds used to pay for the special one-time cash dividend on July 1, 2010 and the dividend, totaling $7.6 million, was paid to shareholders on July 5, 2010. Our Board will determine future cash dividends after giving consideration to our then existing levels of profit and cash flow, capital requirements, current and forecasted liquidity, as well as financial and other business conditions existing at the time. We did not make any dividend payments during 2009.

Tandy Leather, the oldest and best-known supplier of leather and related supplies used in the leathercraft industry, has been the primary leathercraft resource for decades. Tandy Leather’s products include quality tools, leather, accessories, kits and teaching materials. In 2002, we began expanding Tandy Leather’s industry presence by opening retail stores. As of August 1, 2010, we were operating 76 Tandy Leather retail stores located throughout the United States and Canada.
Our International Leathercraft segment operates one company-owned store in Northampton, United Kingdom. The store, which opened in February 2008, operates as a combination retail and wholesale store.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this report and other materials we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “budgeted,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “potential,” “estimate,” “continue,” or “future” variations thereof or other similar statements. There are certain important risks that could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of the important risks, including those described below, could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements.

We believe that a rise in oil and natural gas prices will increase the costs of the goods that we sell, including the costs of shipping those goods from the manufacturer to our stores and customers.
|
Various oils used to manufacture certain leather and leathercrafts are derived from petroleum and natural gas. Also, the carriers who transport our goods rely on petroleum-based fuels to power their ships, trucks and trains. They are likely to pass any incurred cost increases on to us. We are unsure how much of this increase we will be able to pass on to our customers.
Ø
|
Continued weakness in the economy in the United States, as well as abroad, may cause our sales to decrease or not to increase or adversely affect the prices charged for our products. Furthermore, negative trends in general consumer-spending levels, including the impact of the availability and level of consumer debt and levels of consumer confidence could adversely affect our sales.
|
General economic factors that are beyond our control impact our forecasts and actual performance. These factors include interest rates, recession, inflation, deflation, consumer credit availability, consumer debt levels, tax rates and policy, unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence and spending.
We assume no obligation to update or otherwise revise our forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results, express or implied, will not be realized.

Our same store sales increased 4.5% in the second quarter of 2010, as compared with the same period in 2009. Compared to the second quarter of 2009, we achieved sales increases in our retail and manufacturers customer categories, which were offset somewhat by decreases in our wholesale customer category. We believe the small business customer continues to struggle in the current economy, which is reflected in our sales by customer categories. Sales to our national account customers were down 13% for the quarter, compared to the same quarter last year. The sales decline was due to a change in placement with some customers, and changes in customers’ buying patterns to a just-in-time stocking process. Our sales to these customers will depend on products we develop specifically for this group and the level of inventory we are willing to house in anticipation of orders. Therefore, it is possible we will experience further sales declines to our National Account group if the product we stock is not what these customers want to purchase. Our primary focus is on sales through our stores, rather than National Accounts, as we believe our stores represent the greatest potential for continued and consistent sales growth.
Operating income for Wholesale Leathercraft during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 increased by $150,000 from the comparative 2009 quarter, an increase of 32%. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 52.5%, up $251,000 from the second quarter of 2009. The largest expense increase was in Manager Bonuses, up $100,000 due to the increase in profits generated at the stores. Legal fees increased $90,000 for registrations of foreign trademarks. Freight out, which is the cost to ship product to customers, was up $26,000, due to the increase in sales at the stores. Finally, Employee Benefits, specifically medical benefit costs, increased $70,000.
Retail Leathercraft
Our Retail Leathercraft operation consists of 76 Tandy Leather retail stores at June 30, 2010, compared to 75 stores at June 30, 2009. Net sales were up 16% for the second quarter of 2010 over the same quarter last year. A store is categorized as "new" until it is operating for the full comparable period in the prior year.

The retail stores averaged approximately $33,000 in sales per month for the second quarter of 2010.
Sales to each customer group increased slightly over the second quarter of 2009, except for the Institution group. Operating income increased $123,000, or 19%, from the comparative 2009 quarter. Operating income as a percentage of sales also increased from 9.8% in the second quarter of 2009 to 10.0% in the second quarter of 2010. Our gross profit margin slipped from 60.8% to 59.3%. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales decreased from 51.0% to 49.4% as sales grew at a faster rate than that of expenses during the quarter. Operating expenses increased $423,000 over the second quarter of 2009. The new store opened in June 2009 accounted for additional operating expenses of $30,000. Employee compensation increased $107,000. Manager bonuses increased $73,000 due to higher profits at the stores. In addition, advertising expenses increased $73,000. Freight out and credit card fees increased $45,000 and $23,000, respectively, due to increased sales.
International Leathercraft
Consisting of one store located in the UK, this division’s sales totaled $396,000 for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $308,000 in the second quarter of 2009, an improvement of 29%. Gross profit margin increased 10% from the second quarter of 2009 due to the impact of the conversion rate on the selling prices in our UK store. We determine UK selling prices taking into consideration the currency conversion between the U.S. dollar and the Great Britain pound. Even so, our UK store generates higher profit margins than that of a comparable U.S. store due to a beneficial product mix, selling more higher margin tools and supplies and less lower margin leather. Operating expenses totaled $186,000 in the second quarter of 2010, up from $159,000 in the second quarter of 2009 for our UK store. Advertising expense is this division’s largest expense, followed by employee compensation, shipping costs to customers, and rent.
Other Expenses
We paid $66,000 in interest expense in the second quarter of 2010 on our bank debt, which is related to our building purchase, compared to $84,000 in interest expense in the second quarter last year. We earned $23,000 in interest income during the second quarter of 2010, down from last year’s second quarter interest income earned of $32,000. We recorded $18,000 in income during the second quarter of 2010 related to currency fluctuations from our Canadian and UK operations. Comparatively, in the second quarter of 2009, we recorded income of $78,000 for currency fluctuations.

The retail stores averaged approximately $33,000 in sales per month for the first half of 2010.
Operating income for the first six months of 2010 increased $496,000 from the comparative 2009, improving as a percentage of sales from 9.0% in the first half of 2009 to 11.0% in the first half of 2010. Gross margin improved from 60.3% to 61.4%. Operating expenses decreased as a percentage of sales from 51.3% during the first half of 2009 to 50.4% during the first half of 2010, indicating that sales grew faster than expenses.
International Leathercraft
Sales totaled $780,000 for the first six months of 2010, an increase of 30% from sales of $601,000 in the first six months of 2009. These sales were generated from our one store located in the UK, which opened in February 2008. Gross profit margin was 62.6% for the first half of 2009, an improvement over the 2009 comparable period’s gross profit margin of 61.4%. Fiscal 2010 year-to-date operating expenses totaled $358,000 compared to 2009 year-to-date operating expenses of $300,000, an increase of $58,000 or 19%. Operating income in 2010 totaled $131,000 compared to $69,000 in 2009, an improvement of 90%.
Other Expenses
We paid $131,000 in interest expense in the first six months of 2010 on our debt related to our building purchase compared to $160,000 in interest expense in the first half of 2009. We earned $58,000 in interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2010, down from last year’s interest income of $61,000, due to a decline in interest rates earned on our cash investments. We recorded $74,000 in expense during the six months ended June 30, 2010 for currency fluctuations from our Canadian and UK operations. Comparatively, in the first half of 2009, we recorded income of $107,000 for currency fluctuations.
Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition
On our consolidated balance sheet, total assets increased from $43.3 million at fiscal year-end 2009 to $45.8 million at June 30, 2010. The increase in inventory and other current assets accounted for the increase. Total stockholders’ equity decreased from $33.3 million at December 31, 2009 to $27.8 million at June 30, 2010. The decrease was attributable to the special, one-time dividend of $7.6 million that was approved by our Board of Directors in May, partially offset by the earnings in the first half of this year. Our current ratio fell from 5.6 at December 31, 2009 to 2.5 at June 30, 2010 due to the accrued dividend that was paid on July 5, 2010.
Our investment in inventory increased by $1.2 million at June 30, 2010 from year-end 2009 levels. We continue to closely manage our inventory levels to follow our sales trends. Inventory turnover decreased slightly to an annualized rate of 3.31 times during the first half of 2010, from 3.34 times for the first half of 2009. Inventory turnover was 3.34 times for all of 2009. We compute our inventory turns as sales divided by average inventory. At the end of the second quarter of 2010, our total inventory on hand was within 5% of our internal targets for optimal inventory levels. We will be closely monitoring our inventory during the remainder of the year in order to maintain a sufficient inventory to support the stores’ needs.
Trade accounts receivable were $1.4 million at June 30, 2010, up $190,000 from $1.2 million at year-end 2009. The average days to collect accounts receivable for the first half of 2010 were 42.4 days, down from 43.4 days for the first half of 2009. We continue to maintain a tight credit policy given the current economic environment and are closely monitoring our customers with open accounts to ensure collectability of the accounts.
Accounts payable increased $517,000 to $1.7 million at the end of the June 2010, as a result of an increase in purchases and an intentional slowdown of payments to vendors, taking full advantage of the payment terms. Accrued expenses and other liabilities increased $383,000, the majority of which represented an increase in inventory in transit to us at June 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009, and the accrual of property taxes, most of which is paid in the fourth quarter each year.
During the first half of 2010, cash flow provided by operating activities was $368,000. Net income accounted for the majority of the cash provided, offset by the increase in inventory and other current assets. Cash flow provided by investing activities totaled $2.3 million, consisting of $2.5 million in net certificate of deposit sales or maturities, offset by $239,000 in fixed asset purchases. Cash flow provided by financing activities totaled $57,000, consisting of proceeds from employee stock option exercises, offset by payments on our building debt.
We expect to fund our operating and liquidity needs as well as future expansion of the domestic retail and international stores from a combination of current cash balances and internally generated funds.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
For disclosures about market risk affecting us, see Item 7A "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. Our exposure to market risks has not changed significantly since December 31, 2009.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report, June 30, 2010. The term disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
