NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except for share and per share data)
Note 1. General
Overview
On May 6, 2016, Vringo, Inc. changed its name to FORM Holdings Corp. (“FORM” or the “Company”) and concurrently announced its repositioning as a holding company of small and middle market growth companies. The Company’s focus is on acquiring and building companies that would benefit from:
• | additional capital | |
• | exposure to visibility from the public markets | |
• | talent recruiting | |
• | rebranding and | |
• | implementation of best practices. |
The Company’s management team is committed to execute on its strategy. The Company is industry agnostic, but limits the scope of its pipeline by looking only at companies with a clear path to grow in excess of $100,000 in revenue.
The Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which was previously listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the trading symbol “VRNG,” has been listed under the trading symbol “FH” since May 9, 2016.
The Company currently has three operating segments:
• | Group Mobile | |
• | FLI Charge | |
• | Intellectual property |
Group Mobile is a growing premier supplier of innovative and full-service mobile technology solutions, including rugged computers, tablets, mobile devices, accessories, a full suite of professional services and other related products geared toward emergency first responders, municipalities and corporations. In addition, Group Mobile specializes in high-quality customer service and support for those products.
FLI Charge owns a patented conductive wireless charging technology and focuses on the development and commercialization of its technology through the direct-to-consumer sale of enablements, as well as partnerships and licensing agreements in various industries. FLI Charge is currently working with partners that are interested in implementing FLI Charge technology for smart furniture, Original Equipment Manufacturers, or “OEM,” and after-market automobiles and vaporizers. FLI Charge’s business model is based on licensing its technology in exchange for recurring licensing revenue as well as manufacturing and commercializing its own conductive charging pads and associated cases for phones, tablets and laptops.
The intellectual property operating segment is focused on the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property. The Company’s portfolio consists of over 600 patents and patent applications covering telecom infrastructure, internet search, ad-insertion and mobile technologies.

Prior to December 31, 2013, the Company operated a global platform for the distribution of mobile social applications and services. On February 18, 2014, the Company sold its mobile social application business to InfoMedia Services Limited (“InfoMedia”), receiving an 8.25% ownership interest in InfoMedia as consideration and a seat on the board of directors of InfoMedia. As part of the transaction, the Company has the opportunity to license certain intellectual property assets and work with InfoMedia to identify and protect new intellectual property.
Each of the Company’s operating segments are described below.
Group Mobile
Group Mobile is a growing and innovative full, end-to-end solution provider for project lifecycle services including system integration, hardware service support, pre- and post-deployment and customer support helpdesk. Group Mobile provides total hardware solutions, including rugged laptops, tablets and handheld computers. Group Mobile also markets rugged mobile printers, vehicle computer docking and mounting gear, power accessories, wireless communication products, antennas, carrying cases, and other peripherals, accessories and add-ons needed to maximize productivity in a mobile- or field-computing environment.
Group Mobile operates a full-service e-commerce website with live chat, up-to-date product information and computer system configuration capabilities. Group Mobile’s goal is to ensure that its customers purchase the best products and services for their specific requirements.
Group Mobile purchases rugged mobile computing equipment and complementary products from its primary distribution and manufacturing partners and sells them to enterprises, resellers, and retail customers. Group Mobile’s primary customers range from corporations to local governments, emergency first responders and healthcare organizations. Group Mobile believes that its business is characterized by gross profits as a percentage of revenue slightly higher than is commonly found in resellers of computing devices. The market for rugged mobile computing products is trending towards an increase in the volume of unit sales combined with declining unit prices as the business transitions from primarily being comprised of laptops to one primarily comprised of rugged tablets. As this transition has occurred, Group Mobile is seeing shortened product life cycles and industry specific devices for segments such as healthcare. Group Mobile sets sale prices based on the market supply and demand characteristics for each particular product. Group Mobile is highly dependent on the end-market demand for rugged mobile computing products, which is influenced by many factors, including the introduction of new IT products by OEM, replacement cycles for existing rugged mobile computing products, overall economic growth, local and state budgets, and general business activity.
Product costs represent Group Mobile’s single largest expense and product inventory is one of the largest working capital investments for Group Mobile. Group Mobile’s primary suppliers include Synnex Corporation, Ingram Micro Inc., and Xplore Technologies Corporation, which, combined, represent approximately 80% of Group Mobile’s inventory purchases. Group Mobile has reseller agreements with most of its OEM and distribution partners. These agreements usually provide for nonexclusive resale and distribution rights. The agreements are generally short-term, subject to periodic renewal, and often contain provisions permitting termination by either Group Mobile or the supplier without cause upon relatively short notice. Furthermore, product procurement from the OEM suppliers is a highly complex process and, as such, efficient and effective purchasing operations are critical to Group Mobile’s success.
FLI Charge
FLI Charge is a wireless power company dedicated to simplifying the way people power and charge the multitude of mobile electronic devices they use on a daily basis. By eliminating the need to search and compete for outlets and charging cables, FLI Charge is improving the powering and charging experience for all currently existing battery and DC powered devices.
FLI Charge designs, develops, licenses, manufactures and markets wireless conductive power and charging solutions. FLI Charge is currently working with partners in several verticals to bring products to market. These verticals include education, office, hospitality, automotive and consumer electronics among others. To date, FLI Charge has not yet generated any substantial revenue from its product sales. The Company believes that FLI Charge’s patented technology is the only wireless power solution that is fully interoperable between different mobile devices ranging from smartphones to power tools, and many more. FLI Charge’s wireless power solution can simultaneously power multiple devices on the same pad no matter their power requirements or positions on the pad.
FLI Charge’s product line consists of power pads or surfaces as well as devices that are connected to or embedded with FLI Charge enabling technology. FLI Charge pads and surfaces are connected to a power source or battery. The surface of the pad has conductive contact strips that provide power and are constantly monitored by control circuitry that immediately halts power transfer if an unapproved load or short-circuit condition is detected. FLI Charge-enabled devices are embedded with the FLI Charge contact enablement that consists of four contact points, known as the “constellation.” The constellation is designed to make an immediate and continuous electrical connection with the contact strips regardless of the device’s orientation on the pad. The enablement monitors the power coming from the pad and ensures that the correct amount of power goes to the device. Once an approved FLI Charge device is placed on a pad, power is transferred immediately to charge or power the device.
FLI Charge launched its consumer product line on Indiegogo, a crowdfunding platform, on June 15, 2016; the campaign is ongoing as of June 30, 2016. The Company accounts for funds raised from crowdfunding campaigns and pre-sales, which was $177 as of June 30, 2016, as deferred revenue. FLI Charge expects to deliver products to the participants in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Intellectual Property
The intellectual property operating segment is focused on the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property. The Company’s portfolio consists of over 600 patents and patent applications covering telecom infrastructure, internet search, ad-insertion and mobile technologies.
The Company is currently focused on monetizing its technology portfolio through a variety of value enhancing initiatives including, but not limited to, licensing, litigation and strategic partnerships.
Recent Developments
Name Change
On May 6, 2016, the Company changed its name from Vringo, Inc. to FORM Holdings Corp. (“FORM” or the “Company”) and concurrently announced its repositioning as a holding company of small and middle market growth companies. The Company’s focus is on acquiring and building companies that would benefit from:
• | additional capital | |
• | exposure to visibility from the public markets | |
• | talent recruiting | |
• | rebranding and | |
• | implementation of best practices. |
The Company’s management team is committed to execute on its strategy. The Company is industry agnostic, but limits the scope of its pipeline by looking only at companies with a clear path to grow in excess of $100,000 in revenue.
The Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which was previously listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the trading symbol “VRNG,” has been listed under the trading symbol “FH” since May 9, 2016.
Impairment of Patents
The Company’s name change and repositioning as a holding company was deemed a triggering event, which required the Company’s patent assets to be tested for impairment. In performing this impairment test, the Company determined that the patent portfolios, which together represent an asset group, were subject to impairment testing. In the first step of the impairment test, the Company utilized its projections of future undiscounted cash flows based on its existing plans for the patents. As a result, it was determined that the Company’s projections of future undiscounted cash flows were less than the carrying value of the asset group. Accordingly, the Company performed the second step of the impairment test to measure the potential impairment by calculating the asset group’s fair value as of May 6, 2016. As a result, following amortization for the month of April, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $11,937, which resulted in a new carrying value of $1,526 on May 6, 2016. Following the impairment, the Company reevaluated the remaining useful life and concluded that there were no changes in the estimated useful life.
Shareholder Rights Plan
On March 18, 2016, the Company announced that the Company’s Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan in the form of a Section 382 Rights Agreement designed to preserve the Company’s tax assets. As a part of the plan, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a dividend of one preferred-share-purchase right for each share of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of March 29, 2016. Effective on March 18, 2016, if any group or person acquires 4.99% or more of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, or if a group or person that already owns 4.99% or more of the Company’s common stock acquires additional shares representing 0.5% or more of the Company’s common stock, then, subject to certain exceptions, there would be a triggering event under the plan. The rights would then separate from the Company’s common stock and would be adjusted to become exercisable to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock having a market value equal to twice the purchase price of $9.50, resulting in significant dilution in the ownership interest of the acquiring person or group. The Company’s Board of Directors has the discretion to exempt any acquisition of the Company’s common stock from the provisions of the plan and has the ability to terminate the plan prior to a triggering event. In connection with this plan, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Series C Junior Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 18, 2016.
Senior Secured Notes
On March 9, 2016, the Company and the holders (the “Investors”) of the Company’s $12,500 Senior Secured Convertible Notes (the “Notes”), which were originally issued by the Company in a registered direct offering on May 4, 2015, entered into an exchange note agreement (the “Exchange Note Agreement”). Pursuant to the Exchange Note Agreement, the Company issued to the Investors an aggregate of 703,644 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, in exchange for the reduction of $1,267 of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes and $49 of accrued interest. As a result, the outstanding aggregate principal amount under the Notes was reduced from $3,016 to $1,749 as of March 9, 2016.
9 |
In addition, on March 9, 2016, the Company, with the consent of each of the Investors, agreed to amend the Notes. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Notes (the “Amended Notes”) and the Indenture dated May 4, 2015, as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated May 4, 2015 and further supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”) dated March 9, 2016: (i) the Amended Notes are no longer convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock and will be payable by the Company on the Maturity Date (as defined below) in cash only, (ii) the Maturity Date of the Amended Notes will extend to June 30, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”), (iii) the Company will discontinue the payment of principal prior to the Maturity Date (subject to certain exceptions), (iv) the interest rate increased from 8% to 10% per annum and will accrue on the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes, payable monthly, and (v) the Company will pay to the Investors on the Maturity Date 102% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes. The Company also agreed to maintain a cash balance (including cash equivalents) of not less than $2,900.
In addition, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 537,500 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the initial agreement (the “May 2015 Warrants”) from $10.00 to $3.00 per share and the parties also agreed to remove from the May 2015 Warrants certain anti-dilution features. Other terms of the May 2015 Warrants remained the same. Furthermore, in connection with the Amended Notes, the Company paid a restructuring fee of $50 to the Investors.
On July 1, 2016, the Company prepaid in full its Amended Notes that were due on June 30, 2017. As required by the terms of the Amended Notes, notice of prepayment was delivered to the Investors on June 30, 2016. The Company repaid the Amended Notes in full, including repayment of the principal and accrued interest as well as an additional 15% for early repayment. The Company used an aggregate of $2,011 of cash on hand for repayment of the Amended Notes. As a result of the repayment in full of the Amended Notes, all liens on the Company’s assets, including intellectual property, were released by the Investors.
Reverse Stock Split
Unless otherwise noted, the information contained in these condensed consolidated financial statements gives effect to a one-for-ten reverse stock split of our common stock effected on November 27, 2015 on a retroactive basis for all periods presented.
Note 2. Accounting and Reporting Policies
(a) Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected by the Company as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other interim period. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(b) Use of estimates
The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from such estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the Company’s valuation of intangible assets, the useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets, the valuation of the Company’s derivative warrants, the valuation of stock-based compensation, deferred tax assets and liabilities, income tax uncertainties, and other contingencies.
(c) Accounting guidance adopted in 2016
ASU No. 2015-03, Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company adopted guidance on a retrospective basis that requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a deduction from the carrying amount of such debt. As a result of this adoption, the Company reclassified $73 of debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2015 from other current assets to senior secured notes.
ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Going Concern
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company adopted the standard that provides guidance around management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2014-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share is More Akin to Debt or to Equity
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company adopted the standard that clarifies how current U.S. GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
(d) Reclassification
On November 27, 2015, the Company implemented the Reverse Stock Split, which became effective at the opening of trading on the NASDAQ on that date. As of November 27, 2015, every 10 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one share of its common stock, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split resulted in any of the Company’s stockholders owning a fractional share, which was rounded up to the next highest whole share. In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, there was no change in the nominal par value per share of $0.01 and the Company’s authorized shares.
Certain balances have been reclassified to conform to presentation requirements, including to retroactively present the effect of the Reverse Stock Split. All references to the number of shares of common stock, price per share and weighted average shares of common stock have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.
As a result of the adoption by the Company of ASU No. 2015-03 on a retrospective basis, during the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company reclassified $73 of debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2015 from other current assets to senior secured notes.
(e) Intangible assets
Intangible assets include purchased patents, which are recorded based on the cost to acquire them, as well as trade names, customer relationships and technology, which were acquired as part of the acquisition of International Development Group Limited (“IDG”) in the fourth quarter of 2015 and are recorded based on the estimated fair value in purchase price allocation. The intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are periodically evaluated for reasonableness.
The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In assessing the recoverability of the Company’s intangible assets, the Company must make estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether an impairment charge is recognized and also the magnitude of any such charge. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgments and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. If these estimates or material related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges related to its intangible assets.

(f) Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue includes (i) payments received from customers in advance of providing the product and (ii) amounts deferred if other conditions of revenue recognition have not been met. The Company accounts for funds raised from crowdfunding campaigns and pre-sales as deferred revenue.
Note 3. Net Loss per Share of Common Stock
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock plus dilutive potential common stock considered outstanding during the period. However, as the Company generated net loss in all periods presented, some potentially dilutive securities, including certain warrants and stock options, were not reflected in diluted net loss per share because the impact of such instruments was anti-dilutive.
The table below presents the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock:

Note 4. Business Combination
On October 15, 2015, the Company acquired IDG. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of IDG. Group Mobile and 70% of FLI Charge were also acquired through the purchase of IDG. Group Mobile is a company with full-service customer support in rugged computers, mobile devices and accessories. FLI Charge owns patented conductive wireless charging technology and is focused on innovation, sales, manufacturing and licensing its technology in various industries, such as automotive, furniture and others.
12 |
As consideration for the acquisition, the Company issued an equivalent of 1,666,667 common stock (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split), which were issued as follows: (i) 1,604,167 shares of the Company’s newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred”), convertible into 1,604,167 shares of the Company’s common stock, (ii) 57,500 shares of the Company’s unregistered common stock issued to one of the sellers, who is a former chief executive officer and director of IDG, in consideration of his forgiveness of debt and (iii) 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for transaction related services. A total of 240,625 Series B Preferred shares were placed in escrow to secure certain of the sellers’ indemnity obligations under the Purchase Agreement for a period of up to 12 months. On November 27, 2015, all Series B Preferred outstanding shares were converted into unregistered common stock of the Company, resulting in the issuance of 1,604,167 shares of common stock. On April 20, 2016, 85,121 shares of common stock were released from escrow.
Purchase consideration value was determined based on the market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of the transactions, discounted for the fact that the shares are restricted as to their marketability for a period of six months from the issuance date.
The transaction has been accounted for as a business combination. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values at the closing date. The purchase price consideration was as follows:
October 15, 2015 Acquisition: | Fair Value | |||
Series B Preferred Stock | $ | 5,378 | ||
Debt assumed, settled in shares | 193 | |||
Total share value issued | $ | 5,571 |
The purchase price for the acquisition was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets based on their fair values as of the closing date. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible assets and intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price allocation was as follows:
Fair Value | ||||
Assets: | ||||
Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 144 | ||
Accounts receivable | 245 | |||
Inventory | 234 | |||
Prepaid expenses | 18 | |||

Deferred tax liabilities | 866 | |||
Total liabilities | 1,817 | |||
Non-controlling interest in FLI Charge | 262 | |||
Total | $ | 5,571 |
The allocation of the purchase price was based upon a valuation and the Company's estimates and assumptions, which are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition dates). The principal area of potential purchase price adjustments relate to the shares placed in escrow.
13 |
In connection with the acquisition, the Company also entered into a Consulting Agreement with IDG’s former chief executive officer and director for a term of six months and payment of $9 per month. The Company also issued to a finder a warrant to purchase up to an aggregate of 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company, at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, expiring on April 15, 2021. The fair value of the warrant was $114 and was recorded as an expense in general and administrative expenses.
On December 28, 2015, the Company acquired the remaining 30% interest in FLI Charge from third parties. In conjunction with the transaction, the Company issued 110,000 shares of its unregistered common stock for total consideration of $262. The fair value of the consideration for financial reporting purposes was determined based on the market value of the shares at the date of the transaction, discounted due to the restricted nature of the shares and the effect this has on their marketability. The issuance of these shares have no impact on the allocation of the purchase consideration pursuant to FASB ASC 810 and was recorded as an equity transaction.
Note 5. Intangible Assets
The following table provides information regarding the Company’s intangible assets, which consist of the following:

The Company recorded customer relationships, trade name and technology as part of the acquisition of Group Mobile and FLI Charge completed on October 15, 2015. Additionally, during 2016, the Company has capitalized costs for software related to the build-out of Group Mobile’s new website. Amortization has not been recorded for the software as it has not yet been placed into service. The patent assets consist of several major patent portfolios, which were acquired from third parties, as well as a number of internally-developed patents. The costs related to internally-developed patents are expensed as incurred.
The Company’s intangible assets are amortized over their expected useful lives. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded amortization expense of $413 and $813, respectively. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded amortization expense of $1,264 and $1,617, respectively.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company determined that there were impairment indicators related to certain of its patents. A significant factor considered when making this determination occurred on May 6, 2016, when “Vringo, Inc.” changed its name to “FORM Holdings Corp.” and concurrently announced its repositioning as a holding company of small and middle market growth companies. The Company concluded that this factor was deemed a “triggering” event, which required the related patent assets to be tested for impairment. In performing this impairment test, the Company determined that the patent portfolios, which together represent an asset group, were subject to impairment testing. In the first step of the impairment test, the Company utilized its projections of future undiscounted cash flows based on the Company’s existing plans for the patents. As a result, it was determined that the Company’s projections of future undiscounted cash flows were less than the carrying value of the asset group. Accordingly, the Company performed the second step of the impairment test to measure the impairment by calculating the asset group’s fair value as of May 6, 2016.
14 |
As a result, following amortization for the month of April, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $11,937, or 88.7% of the carrying value of the patents prior to impairment. This resulted in a new carrying value of $1,526 on May 6, 2016. The impairment charge is included in amortization and impairment of intangible assets in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Following the impairment, the Company reevaluated the remaining useful life and concluded that there were no changes in the estimated useful life. There were no impairment indicators related to any of the Company’s other amortizable intangible assets during the period ended June 30, 2016.
The following table provides information regarding the Company’s goodwill, which relates to the purchase of IDG completed on October 15, 2015. There were no indicators of impairment of goodwill as of June 30, 2016.

Note 6. Segment Information
The Company currently has three operating segments, Group Mobile, FLI Charge and intellectual property that accumulate revenue and expenses. Additionally, the Company allocates certain expenses to its non-operating corporate segment. The corporate segment represents general and administrative expenses as well as net non-operating income (expense) that are not specific to any of FORM’s operating segments, but represent expenses incurred on behalf of the parent company, a holding company.

Note 7. Senior Secured Notes
On May 4, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain Investors in a registered direct offering of $12,500 of Notes and May 2015 Warrants to purchase 537,500 shares of the Company’s common stock (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split). On the Closing Date, the Company issued the Notes, which were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at $10.00 per share, had 8% interest and matured in 21 months from the date of issuance, unless earlier converted. In addition, the Company issued the May 2015 Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, which were exercisable at $10.00 per share for a period of five years, beginning on November 4, 2015. In connection with the issuance of the Notes and the May 2015 Warrants, the Company received net cash proceeds of $12,425. The Company also incurred third party costs directly associated with the issuance of Notes of $218, which were capitalized as debt issuance costs and reported as a reduction in senior secured notes, and are amortized over the term of the Note. The Company’s obligations under the outstanding Notes are secured by a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all of the Company’s U.S. assets. In addition, stock of certain subsidiaries of the Company were pledged. The outstanding Notes contain customary events of default, as well as covenants which include restrictions on the assumption of new debt by the Company. As of June 30, 2016, all covenants were met and there were no events of default.
As of December 31, 2015, total outstanding principal was $4,206. Between January 1, 2016 and March 9, 2016, the Company made two principal payments in the aggregate amount of $1,190. The Company elected to make these principal payments in shares of the Company’s common stock, which are issued at a 15% discount to the market price data. As such, the Company issued 1,032,332 shares in lieu of principal payments and recorded $210 as extinguishment of debt expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
On March 9, 2016, the Company and the Investors entered into the Exchange Note Agreement. Pursuant to the Exchange Note Agreement, the Company issued to the Investors an aggregate of 703,644 shares of its common stock in exchange for the reduction of $1,267 of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes and $49 of accrued interest. As a result, the outstanding aggregate principal amount under the Notes was reduced from $3,016 to $1,749 as of March 9, 2016.
In addition, on March 9, 2016, the Company, with the consent of each of the Investors, agreed to amend the Notes. Pursuant to the Amended Notes and the Indenture dated May 4, 2015, as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated May 4, 2015 and further supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated March 9, 2016: (i) the Amended Notes are no longer convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock and will be payable by the Company on the Maturity Date in cash only, (ii) the Maturity Date of the Amended Notes will extend to June 30, 2017, (iii) the Company will discontinue the payment of principal prior to the Maturity Date (subject to certain exceptions), (iv) the interest rate increased from 8% to 10% per annum and will accrue on the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes, payable monthly, and (v) the Company will pay to the Investors on the Maturity Date 102% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes. The Company also agreed to maintain a cash balance (including cash equivalents) of not less than $2,900.
In addition, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of the May 2015 Warrants from $10.00 to $3.00 per share and the parties also agreed to remove from the May 2015 Warrants certain anti-dilution features. Other terms of the May 2015 Warrants remained the same. Furthermore, in connection with the Amended Notes, the Company paid a restructuring fee of $50 to the Investors.
16 |
The Company has concluded that the Exchange Note Agreement does not constitute a troubled debt restructuring as it has not experienced financial difficulty. Furthermore, since the Investors remained the same before and after the Exchange Note Agreement, the Company has made a quantitative test, in order to determine whether the Amended Notes are substantially different from the original Notes.
Based on the accounting analysis performed and considering various scenarios for the cash flow test, the Company concluded that the Amended Notes were not substantially different from the original Notes and, as such, accounted for the Exchange Note Agreement as a modification:
· | No gain or loss is recorded and a new effective interest rate is established based on the carrying value of the Notes and the revised cash flows of the Notes. Immediately before the Exchange Note Agreement, the fair value of the conversion option of the Notes was $10.00 per share. |
· | The change in the fair value of the May 2015 Warrants is capitalized similar to certain debt issuance costs. The fair value of the May 2015 Warrants increased by $281 as a result of the reduction of the exercise price from $10.00 to $3.00. Other terms of the May 2015 Warrants remain the same and continue to be recorded as derivative warrant liabilities. The capitalized amount of $281, along with any existing unamortized debt discount or premium, is amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the Notes. |
· | Pursuant to the Exchange Note Agreement, on March 9, 2016, 703,644 shares were issued in exchange for the reduction of $1,267 of the outstanding principal amount and $49 of accrued interest and are also considered a noncash consideration. The fair value of the shares issued was $1,499. As such, the Company capitalized the fair value difference of $183 similar to certain debt issuance costs, which is amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the Notes. |
· | The original transactions cost as of March 9, 2016, in the amount of $49, continue to be deferred. New transaction costs paid to the Investors, in the amount of $50, are capitalized and recorded as an offset to the debt. New transaction costs, in the amount of $65, paid to third parties are recognized as an expense and are included in general and administrative expense. |
The table below summarizes changes in the book value of the Notes from December 31, 2015 to June 30, 2016:
Book value as of December 31, 2015 (net of unamortized portion of debt issuance costs of $73) | $ | 3,111 | ||
Debt repayments in January and February 2016 | (1,190 | ) | ||

Increase in fair value of May 2015 Warrants due to reduced exercise price | 281 | |||
Repayment of Notes in shares of common stock | 1,267 | |||
Repayment of $1,267 of Notes in shares of common stock at a discount to the market | 183 | |||

Total fair value of the considerations provided to the Investors | 1,781 | |||
Book value of Amended Notes after the Exchange Note Agreement on March 9, 2016 | 496 | |||
Amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs, included in interest expense | 304 | |||
Book value of Amended Notes as of June 30, 2016 | $ | 800 |
17 |
On July 1, 2016, the Company prepaid in full its Amended Notes that were due on June 30, 2017. As required by the terms of the Amended Notes, notice of prepayment was delivered to the Investors on June 30, 2016. The Company repaid the Amended Notes in full, including repayment of the principal and accrued interest as well as an additional 15% for early repayment. The Company used an aggregate of $2,011 of cash on hand for repayment of the Amended Notes. As a result of the repayment in full of the Amended Notes, all liens on the Company’s assets, including its intellectual property, were released by the Investors.
Note 8. Fair Value Measurements
The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

The Company measures its derivative liabilities at fair value. The May 2015 Warrants were classified within Level 3 because they were valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton model, which utilizes significant inputs that are unobservable in the market. They are recorded as derivative warrant liabilities as they are freestanding instruments and there are several features within the warrants that may require the Company to cash settle or partially cash settle. In particular, the Company may have to cash settle, partially cash settle, or make cash payments to the Investors including cash settlement upon exercise when insufficient shares are authorized to be issued, and that the Company is obligated to issue registered shares when the warrants are exercised. The derivative warrant liabilities are initially measured at fair value and marked to market at each balance sheet date.
In addition to the above, the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 consisted of cash, cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, deposits and Notes. The carrying amounts of all the aforementioned financial instruments approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Sensitivity of Level 3 measurements to changes in significant unobservable inputs
The inputs to estimate the fair value of the Company’s derivative warrant liabilities and conversion feature were the current market price of the Company’s common stock, the exercise price of the warrants and conversion feature, their remaining expected term, the volatility of the Company’s common stock price and the risk-free interest rate over the expected term. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation can result in a significant change in the fair value measurement.
Generally, an increase in the market price of the Company’s shares of common stock, an increase in the volatility of the Company’s shares of common stock, and an increase in the remaining term of the warrants and conversion feature would each result in a directionally similar change in the estimated fair value of the Company’s warrants. Such changes would increase the associated liability while decreases in these assumptions would decrease the associated liability. An increase in the risk-free interest rate or a decrease in the differential between the warrants’ and conversion feature’s exercise prices and the market price of the Company’s shares of common stock would result in a decrease in the estimated fair value measurement and thus a decrease in the associated liability. The Company has not, and does not plan to, declare dividends on its common stock, and as such, there is no change in the estimated fair value of the warrants and conversion feature due to the dividend assumption.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded a noncash impairment charge of $11,937 to reduce the net carrying value of its patent assets to its estimated fair value of $1,526. Following the impairment charge, the net carrying value of the patent assets was reduced to $1,472 as of June 30, 2016 due to additional amortization expense during the period. The fair value of these assets were classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy using an income-based approach.

On March 9, 2016, the Company modified the exercise price of the May 2015 Warrants, which are recorded as derivative warrant liabilities, from $10.00 to $3.00. There were no changes to other terms of the May 2015 Warrants (see Note 7). The change in fair value of the May 2015 Warrants as a result of the exercise price modification was accounted for as a debt discount to be amortized over the remaining term of the Amended Notes.
Certain of the Company’s outstanding warrants are classified as equity warrants and certain are classified as derivative warrant liabilities. The Company’s outstanding equity warrants as of June 30, 2016 consist of the following:

Note 10. Stock-based Compensation
The Company has a stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to the Company’s directors, employees and consultants. Under the 2012 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a maximum of 1,560,000 shares of common stock may be awarded (after giving effect to the one-for-ten reverse stock split). In 2015, the Company amended its Plan, so that a maximum of shares of common stock that may be awarded was increased to 2,100,000. As of June 30, 2016, 302,510 shares were available for future grants under the Plan. Total stock-based compensation expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $499 and $1,253, respectively. Total stock-based compensation expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $962 and $3,125, respectively.

Note 11. Income Taxes
As of June 30, 2016, deferred tax assets generated from the Company’s U.S. activities were offset by a valuation allowance because realization depends on generating future taxable income, which, in the Company’s estimation, is not more likely than not to be generated before such net operating loss carryforwards expire.
The Company did not have any material unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2016. The Company does not expect to record any additional material provisions for unrecognized tax benefits within the next year.
Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies
FLI Charge
FLI Charge launched its consumer product line on Indiegogo, a crowdfunding platform, on June 15, 2016; the campaign was ongoing as of June 30, 2016, at which time funds raised from the crowdfunding campaign was $177. FLI Charge expects to deliver products to the participants in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Litigation and legal proceedings
ZTE
On December 7, 2015, the Company entered into a confidential settlement and license agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with ZTE Corporation and its affiliates (collectively, “ZTE”), pursuant to which the parties withdrew all pending litigations and proceedings against each other and the Company granted ZTE a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide perpetual license to certain patents and patent applications owned by the Company.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the parties have taken steps to withdraw all pending litigations and proceedings against one another.
In several jurisdictions, though ZTE requested that government organizations close proceedings against FORM, those organizations make such determinations on their own volition. In China, ZTE requested that the National Developmental and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) conclude its investigation against FORM; however, the NDRC has not yet closed its investigation.
In addition, in China and the Netherlands, FORM continues to appeal patent invalidity rulings issued in connection with proceedings originally brought by ZTE. In each instance, ZTE has indicated that it will not oppose FORM’s appeals, though FORM must still plead its case before the respective adjudicatory body in each jurisdiction. On August 3, 2016, the European Patent Office dismissed an opposition action filed on one of FORM’s recently issued European patents. No contingent liability is expected or recorded for the ZTE-related legal proceedings.
ASUS
FORM had filed patent infringement lawsuits against ASUSTeK Computer Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “ASUS”) in Germany, India, and Spain. In March 2016, the parties settled their disputes and ended all litigations between them. However, Google, Inc. (“Google”) intervened as a party in FORM’s litigation against ASUS in India, and, notwithstanding the settlement between FORM and ASUS, the lawsuit remains pending with respect to FORM and Google. As such, as of June 30, 2016, the Company had reversed $222 of contingent liabilities related to potential legal fees that were previously accrued for the proceedings related to this matter.
Deposits with courts
The Company made deposits with courts during 2015 and 2014, related to its proceedings in Germany, Brazil, Romania and Malaysia. Deposits with courts paid in local currency are remeasured on the balance sheet date based on the related foreign exchange rate on that date. As of December 31, 2015, deposits with courts, which are recorded as current assets, totaled $1,930. As of June 30, 2016, all deposits that had been posted with the courts in connection with its litigation with ZTE have been returned to the Company.
22 |
Other
The Company is also engaged in additional litigation, for which no contingent liability is recorded, as the Company does not expect any material negative outcome.
The Company is currently in discussions with the previous owner of some of its patents regarding whether the entirety of the payment received from ZTE in December 2015 is subject to the royalty rate under the Confidential Patent Purchase Agreement dated August 9, 2012.
Leases
In January 2014, the Company entered into an amended lease agreement for its corporate executive office in New York for the lease of a different office space within the same building. The initial annual rental fee for this new office was approximately $403 (subject to certain future escalations and adjustments) beginning on August 1, 2014, which was the date when the new office space became available. This lease will expire in October 2019. Group Mobile has a lease for its office space in Chandler, AZ. The annual rental fee is approximately $72; the current lease, which originally was due to expire on June 30, 2016, was amended in February 2016 and extended until July 31, 2019. Rent expense for operating leases for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 were $109 and $218, respectively. Rent expense for operating leases for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 were $91 and $183, respectively.
Note 13. Subsequent Events
On August 8, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with FHXMS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”), XpresSpa Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“XpresSpa”), the unitholders of XpresSpa who are parties thereto (the “Unitholders”) and Mistral XH Representative, LLC, as representative of the Unitholders (the “Representative”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub will merge with and into XpresSpa, with XpresSpa being the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Surviving Entity”) and the Unitholders becoming stockholders of FORM (the “Merger”).
XpresSpa is a leading airport retailer of spa services and related products, and also sells spa products through its internet site. Services and products include: (i) massage services for the neck, back, feet and whole body, (ii) nail care, such as pedicures, manicures and polish changes, (iii) beauty care services such as waxing and facials, (iv) hair care, such as haircuts and blow outs, (v) spa products such as massagers, lotions and aromatherapy aids and (vi) travel products such as neck pillows and eye masks.
Upon completion of the Merger, (i) the then-outstanding common units of XpresSpa (other than those held by the Company, which will be cancelled without any consideration) and (ii) the then-outstanding preferred units of XpresSpa (other than those held by the Company, which will be cancelled without any consideration) will be automatically converted into the right to receive an aggregate of:
(a) | 2,500,000 shares of FORM common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“FORM Common Stock”), |
(b) | 494,792 shares of newly designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of FORM (“FORM Preferred Stock”) with an aggregate initial liquidation preference of $23,750, and |
(c) | five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of FORM Common Stock, at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, each subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, dividend or similar events. |
The FORM Preferred Stock shall be initially convertible into an aggregate of 3,958,336 shares of FORM Common Stock, which equals a $6.00 per share conversion price, and each holder of FORM Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on an as converted basis. The FORM Preferred Stock is senior to the FORM Common Stock and the terms of the FORM Preferred Stock contain no restrictions on the Company’s ability to issue additional senior preferred securities or the Company’s ability to incur additional preferred securities in the future. The Company has the right, but not the obligation, upon ten trading days’ notice to convert the outstanding shares of FORM Preferred Stock into FORM Common Stock at the then applicable conversion ratio, at any time or from time to time, if the volume weighted average price per share of the FORM Common Stock exceeds $9.00 for over any 20 days in a 30 consecutive trading day period. The term of the FORM Preferred Stock is seven years, after which time FORM can repay the holders in shares of FORM Common Stock or cash at the Company’s election. FORM Preferred Stock will accrue interest at 9% per annum, or $4.32 per share of FORM Preferred Stock.
In addition, the Company entered into subscription agreements to sell 750,574 shares of its unregistered Common Stock to certain holders of XpresSpa, at a purchase price of $2.31 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,734.
On August 8, 2016, FORM agreed to purchase from XpresSpa an aggregate of 1,733,826 of Series C Preferred Units of XpresSpa, at a per unit purchase price of $1.00 per unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,734. The Series C Preferred Units of XpresSpa will have a preference in the amount of its initial investment and shall bear 12% interest until the closing of the anticipated merger agreement.
Immediately following the completion of the Merger (without taking into account any shares of FORM Common Stock held by XpresSpa equity holders prior to the completion of the Merger), the former Unitholders of XpresSpa are expected to own approximately 18% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock (or 33% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis) and the current stockholders of the Company are expected to own approximately 82% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock (or 67% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis).
The Company engaged various third parties to perform legal, financial and tax due diligence associated with the Merger. In addition, the Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to perform a valuation of the purchase considerations and purchase price allocation. Among the service providers, the Company engaged Redridge Lender Services LLC to perform financial due diligence. The Company’s CEO and certain members of his family own a minority equity position in Redridge Lender Services LLC, which may be considered a related party. The fee for this engagement is $101, of which approximately $10 was incurred in the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 and is reflected in general and administrative expenses for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Overview
On May 6, 2016, we changed the name of our company from Vringo, Inc. to FORM Holdings Corp. (“FORM” or the “Company”) and concurrently announced our repositioning as a holding company of small and middle market growth companies. Our focus is on acquiring and building companies that would benefit from:
• | additional capital | |
• | exposure to visibility from the public markets | |
• | talent recruiting | |
• | rebranding and | |
• | implementation of best practices. |
Our management team is committed to execute on our strategy. We are industry agnostic, but limit the scope of our pipeline by looking only at companies with a clear path to grow in excess of $100,000,000 in revenue.
Our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which was previously listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the trading symbol “VRNG,” has been listed under the trading symbol “FH” since May 9, 2016.
We currently have three operating segments:
• | Group Mobile |
• | FLI Charge |
• | Intellectual property |
Prior to December 31, 2013, we operated a global platform for the distribution of mobile social applications and services. On February 18, 2014, we sold our mobile social application business to InfoMedia Services Limited (“InfoMedia”), receiving an 8.25% ownership interest in InfoMedia as consideration and a seat on the board of directors of InfoMedia. As part of the transaction, we have the opportunity to license certain intellectual property assets and work with InfoMedia to identify and protect new intellectual property.
24 |
Segments
We operate in three operating segments: Group Mobile, FLI Charge and intellectual property.
Our Strategy and Outlook
Group Mobile is a supplier of built-to-order rugged computers, mobile devices and accessories. We plan to increase Group Mobile’s revenue, which we believe can be achieved by adding new products, exploring new distribution verticals, such as military and government, and increasing the sales team’s geographic coverage. In addition, we plan to continue to enhance our intellectual property rights around our FLI Charge technology and products. FLI Charge plans to strengthen and develop partnerships in numerous markets including automotive, education, office, healthcare, power tools and vaporizers. Our strategy for our intellectual property operating segment is to continue to monetize our existing portfolio of intellectual property through licensing and strategic partnerships.
Group Mobile
Group Mobile is a growing and innovative full, end-to-end solution provider for project lifecycle services including system integration, hardware service support, pre- and post-deployment and customer support helpdesk. Group Mobile provides total hardware solutions, including rugged laptops, tablets, and handheld computers. Group Mobile also markets rugged mobile printers, vehicle computer docking and mounting gear, power accessories, wireless communication products, antennas, carrying cases and other peripherals, accessories and add-ons needed to maximize productivity in a mobile- or field-computing environment. Group Mobile’s professional service offerings are evolving into project lifecycle services including technology consultations, development and deployment, project and asset management, equipment installation, break-fix, hardware service technical support, 24-7 helpdesk and more.
Group Mobile is moving aggressively to provide industry leading Law Enforcement In-Vehicle “Video and Body Worn” camera solutions to meet the complex mobile technology demands of thousands of law enforcement agencies and officers in the United States (“U.S.”) market. Key to the Group Mobile long-term strategy is the complete professional services, post deployment services and lifecycle management of Group Mobile offerings to bring stability to the customer mobile technology platforms.
Group Mobile purchases rugged mobile computing equipment and complementary products from its primary distribution and manufacturing partners and sells them to enterprises, resellers, and retail customers. Our primary customers range from corporations to local governments, emergency first responders and healthcare organizations. We believe that Group Mobile’s business is characterized by gross profits as a percentage of revenue slightly higher than is commonly found in resellers of computing devices. The market for rugged mobile computing products is trending towards an increase in the volume of unit sales combined with declining unit prices as the business transitions from primarily being comprised of laptops to one primarily comprised of rugged tablets. As this transition has occurred, Group Mobile is seeing shortened product life cycles and industry specific devices for segments such as healthcare. Group Mobile sets sale prices based on the market supply and demand characteristics for each particular product. Group Mobile is highly dependent on the end-market demand for rugged mobile computing products, which is influenced by many factors including the introduction of new IT products by OEM, replacement cycles for existing rugged mobile computing products, overall economic growth, local and state budgets, and general business activity.
Product costs represent the single largest expense and product inventory is one of the largest working capital investments for Group Mobile. Group Mobile’s primary suppliers include Synnex Corporation, Ingram Micro Inc., and Xplore Technologies Corporation, which, combined, represent approximately 80% of Group Mobile’s inventory purchases. We have reseller agreements with most of our OEM and distribution partners. These agreements usually provide for nonexclusive resale and distribution rights. The agreements are generally short-term, subject to periodic renewal, and often contain provisions permitting termination by either our supplier or us without cause upon relatively short notice. Furthermore, product procurement from the OEM suppliers is a highly complex process and as such, efficient and effective purchasing operations are critical to Group Mobile’s success.
FLI Charge
FLI Charge is a wireless power company dedicated to making it easier for people to power and charge the multitude of mobile electronic devices they use on a daily basis. By eliminating the need to search and compete for outlets and charging cables, we are improving the powering and charging experience for all battery and DC powered devices.
FLI Charge designs, develops, licenses, manufactures and markets wireless conductive power and charging solutions. FLI Charge is currently working with partners in several verticals to bring products to market. These verticals include education, office, hospitality, automotive and consumer electronics among others. To date, we have not yet generated any substantial revenue from our products. We believe that FLI Charge’s patented technology is the only wireless power solution that is fully interoperable between different mobile devices ranging from smartphones to power tools, and many more. FLI Charge’s wireless power solution can simultaneously power multiple devices on the same pad no matter their power requirements or positions on the pad.
25 |
The FLI Charge ecosystem consists of power pads or surfaces as well as devices that are connected to or embedded with FLI Charge enabling technology. FLI Charge pads and surfaces are connected to a power source or battery. The surface of the pad has conductive contact strips that provide power and are constantly monitored by control circuitry that immediately halts power transfer if an unapproved load or short-circuit condition is detected. FLI Charge-enabled devices are embedded with the FLI Charge contact enablement that consists of four contact points, known as the FLI Charge “constellation.” The constellation is designed to make an immediate and continuous electrical connection with the contact strips regardless of the device’s orientation on the pad. The enablement monitors the power coming from the pad and ensures that the correct amount of power goes to the device. Once an approved FLI Charge device is placed on a pad, power is transferred immediately to charge or power the device.
There are several competing wireless charging technologies on the market or under development today. The most popular competing technology is inductive wireless charging, in which magnetic induction uses a magnetic coil to create resonance, which can transmit energy over a relatively short distance. The amount of power delivered is a function of the size of the coils, and the coils must be aligned and paired within a typical distance of less than one inch. Products utilizing magnetic induction have been available for 10+ years in products such as rechargeable electronic toothbrushes and pace makers. The leading inductive technologies deliver a maximum of 10-15 watts. Other competing technologies include magnetic resonance, RF harvesting, laser and ultrasound.
As compared to each of the competing wireless technologies above, we believe that our conductive technology exhibits many competitive advantages including:
• | charge rates/efficiency – FLI Charge pads charge devices nearly as fast as plugging them into a wall outlet; |
• | multiple devices – FLI Charge pads can charge or power multiple devices at the same time without reducing the charging speed; |
• | safety – FLI Charge’s technology is as safe as plugging devices into a wall outlet; |
• | maximum power – FLI Charge pads can supply as much as 150 watts of power, which is enough to charge or power devices with relatively high power requirements such as power tool batteries and flat screen monitors; |
• | positioning freedom – FLI Charge’s technology allows for devices to be placed in any orientation, anywhere on the pad, without sacrificing any charging speed; and |
• | compatibility – all FLI Charge enabled electronic devices are compatible with all FLI Charge pads. |
FLI Charge launched its consumer product line on Indiegogo, a crowdfunding platform, on June 15, 2016; the campaign was ongoing as of June 30, 2016, at which time funds raised from the crowdfunding campaign was $177,000. FLI Charge expects to deliver products to the participants in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Intellectual Property
Our intellectual property operating segment is engaged in the innovation, development and monetization of intellectual property. Our portfolio consists of over 600 patents and patent applications covering telecom infrastructure, internet search, ad-insertion and mobile technologies.
We are currently focused on monetizing our technology portfolio through a variety of value enhancing initiatives including, but not limited to, licensing, litigation and strategic partnerships. For further information regarding our intellectual property enforcement activities, refer to Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our management team is committed to execute on our strategy. We are industry agnostic, but limit the scope of our pipeline by looking only at companies with a clear path to grow in excess of $100,000,000 in revenue.
Impairment of Patents
Our name change and repositioning as a holding company was deemed a triggering event, which required our patent assets to be tested for impairment. In performing this impairment test, we determined that the patent portfolios, which together represent an asset group, were subject to impairment testing. In the first step of the impairment test, we utilized our projections of future undiscounted cash flows based on our existing plans for the patents. As a result, it was determined that our projections of future undiscounted cash flows were less than the carrying value of the asset group. Accordingly, we performed the second step of the impairment test to measure the potential impairment by calculating the asset group’s fair value as of May 6, 2016. As a result, following amortization for the month of April, we recorded an impairment charge of $11,937,000, which resulted in a new carrying value of $1,526,000 on May 6, 2016. Following the impairment, we reevaluated the remaining useful life and concluded that there were no changes in the estimated useful life.
Shareholder Rights Plan
On March 18, 2016, we announced that our Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan in the form of a Section 382 Rights Agreement designed to preserve our tax assets. As a part of the plan, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of one preferred-share-purchase right for each share of our common stock outstanding as of March 29, 2016. Effective on March 18, 2016, if any group or person acquires 4.99% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock, or if a group or person that already owns 4.99% or more of our common stock acquires additional shares representing 0.5% or more of our common stock, then, subject to certain exceptions, there would be a triggering event under the plan. The rights would then separate from our common stock and would be adjusted to become exercisable to purchase shares of our common stock having a market value equal to twice the purchase price of $9.50, resulting in significant dilution in the ownership interest of the acquiring person or group. Our Board of Directors has the discretion to exempt any acquisition of our common stock from the provisions of the plan and has the ability to terminate the plan prior to a triggering event. In connection with this plan, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Series C Junior Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 18, 2016.
Senior Secured Notes
On March 9, 2016, we entered into an exchange note agreement (the “Exchange Note Agreement”) with the holders (the “Investors”) of our $12,500,000 Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”), which we originally issued in a registered direct offering on May 4, 2015. Pursuant to the Exchange Note Agreement, we issued to the Investors an aggregate of 703,644 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, in exchange for the reduction of $1,267,000 of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes and $49,000 of accrued interest. As a result, the outstanding aggregate principal amount under the Notes was reduced from $3,016,000 to $1,749,000 as of March 9, 2016.
In addition, on March 9, 2016, with the consent of each of the Investors, we agreed to amend the Notes. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Notes (the “Amended Notes”) and the Indenture dated May 4, 2015, as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated May 4, 2015 and further supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”) dated March 9, 2016: (i) the Amended Notes are no longer convertible into shares of our common stock and will be payable by us on the Maturity Date (as defined below) in cash only, (ii) the Maturity Date of the Amended Notes will extend to June 30, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”), (iii) we will discontinue the payment of principal prior to the Maturity Date (subject to certain exceptions), (iv) the interest rate increased from 8% to 10% per annum and will accrue on the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes, payable monthly, and (v) we will pay to the Investors on the Maturity Date 102% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Amended Notes. We also agreed to maintain a cash balance (including cash equivalents) of not less than $2,900,000.
In addition, we agreed to reduce the exercise price of the warrants to purchase an aggregate of 537,500 shares of our common stock granted as part of the initial agreement (the “May 2015 Warrants”) from $10.00 to $3.00 per share and the parties also agreed to remove from the May 2015 Warrants certain anti-dilution features. Other terms of the May 2015 Warrants remained the same. Furthermore, in connection with the Amended Notes, we paid a restructuring fee of $50,000 to the Investors.
On July 1, 2016, we prepaid in full our Amended Notes that were due on June 30, 2017. As required by the terms of the Amended Notes, notice of prepayment was delivered to the Investors on June 30, 2016. We repaid the Amended Notes in full, including repayment of the principal and accrued interest as well as an additional 15% for early repayment. We used an aggregate of $2,011,000 of cash on hand for repayment of the Amended Notes. As a result of the repayment in full of the Amended Notes, all liens on our assets, including intellectual property, were released by the Investors.
Reverse Stock Split
Unless otherwise noted, the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q gives effect to a one-for-ten reverse stock split of our common stock effected on November 27, 2015 on a retroactive basis for all periods presented.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, we recorded total revenue of $11,362,000. There was no revenue recognized for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015. The increase was attributable to each of our operating segments. Group Mobile recognized $2,450,000 of product revenue, FLI Charge recognized $12,000 of licensing revenue in connection with an ongoing license agreement with a customer, and our intellectual property operating segment recognized a one-time lump sum payment of $8,900,000 in connection with an executed confidential license agreement. We did not recognize any revenue generated by Group Mobile or FLI Charge prior to their acquisition on October 15, 2015.
We believe that growth in Group Mobile’s revenue can be achieved by adding new products, exploring new distribution verticals, such as military and government, and increasing the sales team’s geographic coverage. In addition, we plan to enhance our intellectual property rights around our FLI Charge technology and products. FLI Charge plans to strengthen and develop partnerships in numerous markets including automotive, education, office, healthcare, power tools and vaporizers. We intend to continue to monetize our existing portfolio of intellectual property through licensing and strategic partnerships.

We did not recognize any cost of goods sold for FLI Charge during the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 and we did not recognize any expenses incurred by Group Mobile or FLI Charge prior to their acquisition on October 15, 2015.

Operating legal costs | $ | 4,243,000 | $ | 5,464,000 | $ | (1,221,000 | ) |
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, our operating legal costs were $4,243,000, which represents a decrease of $1,221,000 (or 22.3%) from operating legal costs recorded for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015. This decrease was primarily due to the timing and nature of consulting and patent litigation costs related to legal proceedings against ZTE and ASUS, especially as costs pertaining to our ZTE campaign declined significantly following the execution of the confidential settlement and license agreement in December 2015. Costs in 2016 also include royalty expenses to a previous owner of some of our patents.
We expect that our legal costs will continue to significantly decrease over time.

Amortization and impairment of intangible assets | $ | 12,350,000 | $ | 813,000 | $ | 11,537,000 |
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, amortization and impairment expenses related to our intangible assets totaled $12,350,000, which represents an increase of $11,537,000 (or 1,419.1%) compared to the amortization expense recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2015. There was no impairment expense recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2015. The increase was due to the impairment of our patents asset group.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, we determined that there were impairment indicators related to certain of our patents. A significant factor considered when making this determination occurred on May 6, 2016, when we changed the name of our company from “Vringo, Inc.” to “FORM Holdings Corp.” and concurrently announced our repositioning as a holding company of small and middle market growth companies. We concluded that this factor was deemed a “triggering” event, which required the related patent assets to be tested for impairment. In performing this impairment test, we determined that the patent portfolios, which together represent an asset group, were subject to impairment testing. In the first step of the impairment test, we utilized our projections of future undiscounted cash flows based on our existing plans for the patents.

Accordingly, we performed the second step of the impairment test to measure the potential impairment by calculating the asset group’s fair value as of May 6, 2016. As a result, following amortization for the month of April, we recorded an impairment charge of $11,937,000, or 88.7% of the carrying value of the patents prior to impairment, which resulted in a new carrying value of $1,526,000 on May 6, 2016. Following the impairment, we reevaluated the remaining useful life and concluded that there were no changes in the estimated useful life. There were no impairment indicators related to any of our other amortizable intangible assets during the three-month period ended June 30, 2016.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2016, general and administrative expenses increased by $1,007,000 (or 43.8%), to $3,305,000, compared to $2,298,000 that was recorded during the three-month period ended June 30, 2015. The overall increase was primarily a direct result of our acquisition of Group Mobile and FLI Charge on October 15, 2015. Following the acquisition, we experienced increases in salaries and benefits due to our expanded workforce, advertising and marketing for Group Mobile and FLI Charge’s product lines, and product development as we continue to develop and improve FLI Charge’s product line. Additionally, we experienced an increase in legal and consulting costs related to potential acquisitions resulting from our repositioning to a holding company of small and middle market growth companies. These increases in general and administrative expenses were offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense, which was a result of equity awards granted in 2012 and 2013 becoming fully vested during the latter half of 2015.

The non-operating expenses reported during the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 were reduced by a gain of $99,000 on the revaluation of the derivative warrant liabilities related to the Amended Notes.
The total non-operating income, net, of $66,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 was primarily comprised of a $695,000 gain on the revaluation of warrants and conversion feature related to the Notes offset by interest expense of $465,000 and loss on extinguishment of debt of $210,000.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, we recorded interest expense of $748,000 for the interest recorded related to the monthly interest payments and the amortization of the debt discount and debt issuance costs as well as accrued interest calculated using the effective interest method. In addition, we elected to repay principal installments for January and February 2016 in shares of our common stock, which were issued at a discount of 15% to market prices, which resulted in $210,000 recorded as a loss on the extinguishment of debt.
The net non-operating expenses reported during the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 were reduced by a gain of $369,000 on the revaluation of the derivative warrant liabilities related to the Amended Notes.
The net non-operating expense of $157,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 was primarily comprised of interest expense of $465,000, loss on extinguishment of debt of $210,000 and foreign exchanges losses in connection with our deposits with courts. These expenses were partially offset by a $695,000 gain on the revaluation of warrants and conversion feature related to the Notes.
32 |
We expect that our non-operating income (expense) will remain highly volatile, and we may choose to fund our operations through additional financing. In particular, non-operating income (expense) will be affected by the adjustments to the fair value of our derivative instruments. Fair value of these derivative instruments depends on a variety of assumptions, such as estimations regarding triggering of down-round protection and estimated future share price. An estimated increase in the price of our common stock increases the value of the warrants and thus results in a loss on our statements of operations. In addition, high estimated probability of a down-round protection increases the value of the warrants and again results in a loss on our statements of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2016, we had a cash balance of $27,449,000, which represents an increase of $2,498,000 compared to our cash balance as of December 31, 2015. We anticipate that our need for capital will continue to decline as project-based activities related to the improvement of systems and digital marketing attributed to Group Mobile near completion and litigation costs for our intellectual property operating segment continue to decline. Cash expenditures during the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 were offset by cash received for refunds of court fees and our deposits with the courts in Germany, Brazil, and Romania, as well as cash received by our Group Mobile and intellectual property operating segments during the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2016, all bonds posted with the courts in connection with our litigation with ZTE have been returned back to the Company.
Our average monthly net cash provided by operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 was approximately $116,000 compared to net cash used in operations of approximately $1,285,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.
Based on current operating plans, we expect to have sufficient funds for at least the next 12 months and beyond. In addition, we may choose to raise additional funds in connection with potential acquisitions of operating assets, patent portfolios or other businesses that we may pursue. There can be no assurance, however, that any such opportunities will materialize.
On March 9, 2016, pursuant to the Exchange Note Agreement, we issued to the Investors an aggregate of 703,644 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, in exchange for the reduction of $1,267,000 of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes and $49,000 of accrued interest. As a result, the outstanding aggregate principal amount under the Notes was reduced from $3,016,000 to $1,749,000 as of March 9, 2016.
On July 1, 2016, we prepaid in full our Amended Notes that were due on June 30, 2017. As required by the terms of the Amended Notes, notice of prepayment was delivered to the Investors on June 30, 2016. We repaid the Amended Notes in full, including repayment of the principal and accrued interest as well as an additional 15% for early repayment.

As a result of the repayment in full of the Amended Notes, all liens on our assets, including intellectual property, were released by the Investors.
On August 8, 2016, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with FHXMS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and ones of our wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Merger Sub”), XpresSpa Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“XpresSpa”), the unitholders of XpresSpa who are parties thereto (the “Unitholders”) and Mistral XH Representative, LLC, as representative of the Unitholders (the “Representative”), pursuant to which the Merger Sub will merge with and into XpresSpa, with XpresSpa being the surviving entity and one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Surviving Entity”) and the Unitholders becoming our stockholders the “Merger”).
XpresSpa is a leading airport retailer of spa services and related products, and also sells spa products through its internet site. Services and products include: (i) massage services for the neck, back, feet and whole body, (ii) nail care, such as pedicures, manicures and polish changes, (iii) beauty care services such as waxing and facials, (iv) hair care, such as haircuts and blow outs, (v) spa products such as massagers, lotions and aromatherapy aids and (vi) travel products such as neck pillows and eye masks.
Upon completion of the Merger, (i) the then-outstanding common units of XpresSpa (other than those held by us, which will be cancelled without any consideration) and (ii) the then-outstanding preferred units of XpresSpa (other than those held by us, which will be cancelled without any consideration) will be automatically converted into the right to receive an aggregate of:
(a) | 2,500,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“FORM Common Stock”), | |
(b) | 494,792 shares of our newly designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, (“FORM Preferred Stock”) with an aggregate initial liquidation preference of $23,750,000, and | |
(c) | five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of FORM Common Stock, at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, each subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, dividend or similar events. |
The FORM Preferred Stock shall be initially convertible into an aggregate of 3,958,336 shares of FORM Common Stock, which equals a $6.00 per share conversion price, and each holder of FORM Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on an as converted basis. The FORM Preferred Stock is senior to the FORM Common Stock and the terms of the FORM Preferred Stock contain no restrictions on our ability to issue additional senior preferred securities or our ability to incur additional preferred securities in the future. We have the right, but not the obligation, upon ten trading days’ notice to convert the outstanding shares of FORM Preferred Stock into FORM Common Stock at the then applicable conversion ratio, at any time or from time to time, if the volume weighted average price per share of the FORM Common Stock exceeds $9.00 for over any 20 days in a 30 consecutive trading day period. The term of the FORM Preferred Stock is seven years, after which time we can repay the holders in shares of FORM Common Stock or cash at our election. FORM Preferred Stock will accrue interest at 9% per annum, or $4.32 per share of FORM Preferred Stock.
In addition, we entered into subscription agreements to sell 750,574 shares of our unregistered common stock to certain holders of XpresSpa, at a purchase price of $2.31 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,734,000.
On August 8, 2016, we agreed to purchase from XpresSpa an aggregate of 1,733,826 of Series C Preferred Units of XpresSpa, at a per unit purchase price of $1.00 per unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,734,000. The Series C Preferred Units of XpresSpa will have a preference in the amount of its initial investment and shall bear 12% interest until the closing of the anticipated merger agreement.
Immediately following the completion of the Merger (without taking into account any shares of FORM Common Stock held by XpresSpa equity holders prior to the completion of the Merger), the former Unitholders of XpresSpa are expected to own approximately 18% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock (or 33% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis) and our current stockholders of the Company are expected to own approximately 82% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock (or 67% of the outstanding FORM Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis).

Operating activities
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, net cash provided by operating activities totaled $698,000 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $7,713,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. The increase of $8,411,000 was mainly due to cash received from our Group Mobile and intellectual property operating segments during the normal course of business.
Our net cash used in operating activities could increase if we engage in future business development activities. As we expect to move towards greater revenue generation in the future, we expect that these amounts will be offset over time by operating expenses. There is no assurance that our licensing efforts will be successful in the future. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that we will generate sufficient revenue to offset future operating expenses and our ability to raise additional capital may be limited.

Investing activities
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, net cash provided by investing activities totaled $1,850,000, mainly attributable to the refunds of our deposits with the German, Brazilian and Romanian courts. These proceeds were offset by $151,000 net cash used to acquire software related to Group Mobile’s website. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, net cash used in investing activities totaled $287,000, which represents the deposit we made to a Romanian court to enforce an injunction against ZTE in Romania and the deposit we made in Germany to enforce review of ZTE’s accounting records.
We expect that net cash used in investing activities will increase as we intend to continue to acquire and develop supporting infrastructure and systems for our operating segments.
Financing activities
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, net cash used in financing activities totaled $50,000, which is the amount paid to the Investors related to their expenses incurred as a result of the debt modification. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, we received net proceeds of $12,425,000 from a securities purchase in a registered direct offering of $12,500,000 of Notes and warrants to purchase up to 537,500 shares of our common stock. This amount was offset by the $218,000 of debt issuance costs that were paid in relation to the agreement.
A significant portion of our issued and outstanding warrants, for which the underlying shares of common stock held by non-affiliates are freely tradable, are currently “out of the money.” Therefore, the potential of additional incoming funds from exercises by our warrant holders is currently very limited. To the extent that any of our issued and outstanding warrants were “in the money,” it could be used as a source of additional funding if the warrant holders choose to exercise their warrants for cash.
We may also choose to raise additional funds in connection with any acquisitions of patent portfolios or other assets or other businesses that we may pursue. There can be no assurance, however, that any such opportunity will materialize. Moreover, any such financing would most likely be dilutive to our current stockholders.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no obligations, assets or liabilities that would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 10, 2016, which includes a description of our critical accounting policies that involve subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results. While there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as to the methodologies or assumptions we apply under them, we continue to monitor such methodologies and assumptions.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required as we are a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. 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 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit 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, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
On October 15, 2015, we acquired IDG. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, IDG's processes and systems did not significantly impact internal control over financial reporting. Our management performed due diligence procedures associated with the acquisition of IDG.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Infrastructure Patents
ZTE
On December 7, 2015, we entered into a confidential settlement and license agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with ZTE Corporation and its affiliates (collectively, “ZTE”), pursuant to which: (i) ZTE paid us a total of $21,500,000, net of all withholding, value added or other taxes; (ii) the parties withdrew all pending litigations and proceedings against each other including the litigations related to ZTE’s breach of its non-disclosure agreement with us; and (iii) we granted ZTE certain rights with respect to our patents including a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide perpetual license to certain of our owned patents and patent applications.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the parties have taken steps to withdraw all pending litigations and proceedings against one another.
In several jurisdictions, though ZTE requested that government organizations close proceedings against FORM, those organizations make such determinations on their own volition. In China, ZTE requested that the National Developmental and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) conclude its investigation against FORM; however, the NDRC has not yet closed its investigation.
In addition, in China and the Netherlands, FORM continues to appeal patent invalidity rulings issued in connection with proceedings originally brought by ZTE. In each instance, ZTE has indicated that it will not oppose FORM’s appeals, though FORM must still plead its case before the respective adjudicatory body in each jurisdiction.
ASUS
FORM had filed patent infringement lawsuits against ASUSTeK Computer Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “ASUS”) in Germany, India, and Spain. In March 2016, the parties settled their disputes and ended all litigations between them. However, Google, Inc. (“Google”) intervened as a party in FORM’s litigation against ASUS in India, and, notwithstanding the settlement between FORM and ASUS, the lawsuit remains pending with respect to FORM and Google.
Confidential License Agreement
On April 25, 2016, we entered into a Confidential License Agreement (the “License Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, the licensee paid us a one-time lump sum payment of $8,900,000 on May 30, 2016. As a result, we granted to the licensee a non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide perpetual license to certain patents and patent applications we own.
Content Distribution
In 2012, we purchased a portfolio of patents invented by Tayo Akadiri relating to content distribution. The portfolio includes seven patents as well as several pending patent applications. As one of the means of realizing the value of these patents, on October 20, 2015, we filed suit against DirecTV in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
On May 25, 2016, Iron Gate Security, Inc. (“Iron Gate”), one of our subsidiaries, filed a Second Amended Complaint (the “Complaint”) against Lowe’s Companies, Inc. (“Lowe’s”) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. In the Complaint, Iron Gate alleged that Lowe’s infringes U.S. Patent No. 7,203,693 (“the ’693 Patent”). On June 13, 2016, Lowe’s filed a motion to dismiss under 35 U.S.C. Section 101 asserting that the claims of the ‘693 Patent were directed to subject matter that was not patentable. On July 27, 2016, the Court held a hearing on the motion and, on August 3, 2016, the Court denied Lowe’s motion.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, except as follows:
35 |
Anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law, provisions in our charter and bylaws and our stockholder rights plan could delay, discourage or make more difficult a third-party acquisition of control of us.
We are a Delaware corporation and, as such, certain provisions of Delaware law could delay, discourage or make more difficult a third-party acquisition of control of us, even if the change in control would be beneficial to stockholders or the stockholders regard it as such. We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), which prohibits certain “business combination” transactions (as defined in Section 203) with an “interested stockholder” (defined in Section 203 as a 15% or greater stockholder) for a period of three years after a stockholder becomes an “interested stockholder,” unless the attaining of “interested stockholder” status or the transaction is pre-approved by our Board of Directors, the transaction results in the attainment of at least an 85% ownership level by an acquirer or the transaction is later approved by our Board of Directors and by our stockholders by at least a 66 2/3 percent vote of our stockholders other than the “interested stockholder,” each as specifically provided in Section 203. We have also adopted a shareholder rights plan in the form of a Section 382 Rights Agreement (the “NOL rights plan”), designed to help protect and preserve our substantial tax attributes primarily associated with our NOLs and research tax credits under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code and related U.S. Treasury regulations. Although this is not the purpose of the NOL rights plan, it could have the effect of making it uneconomical for a third party to acquire us on a hostile basis.
These provisions of the DGCL, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, and the NOL rights plan may delay, discourage or make more difficult certain types of transactions in which our stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over the current market price, and might limit the ability of our stockholders to approve transactions that they think may be in their best interest.
Future acquisitions or business opportunities could involve unknown risks that could harm our business and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We strive to be a diversified holding company that owns interests in a number of different businesses. We have in the past, and may in the future, acquire businesses or make investments, directly or indirectly through our subsidiaries, that involve unknown risks, some of which will be particular to the industry in which the investment or acquisition targets operate, including risks in industries with which we are not familiar or experienced. Although we intend to conduct appropriate business, financial and legal due diligence in connection with the evaluation of future investment or acquisition opportunities, there can be no assurance our due diligence investigations will identify every matter that could have a material adverse effect on us. We may be unable to adequately address the financial, legal and operational risks raised by such investments or acquisitions, especially if we are unfamiliar with the relevant industry. The realization of any unknown risks could expose us to unanticipated costs and liabilities and prevent or limit us from realizing the projected benefits of the investments or acquisitions, which could adversely affect our financial condition and liquidity.
Future acquisitions and investments are possible, changing the components of our assets and liabilities, and, if unsuccessful, could reduce the value of our common stock.
Any future acquisitions may result in significant changes in the composition of our assets and liabilities. Consequently, our financial condition, results of operations and the trading price of our common stock may be affected by factors different from those affecting our financial condition, results of operations and trading price.
We may be unsuccessful in identifying suitable acquisition candidates, which may negatively impact our growth strategy.
There can be no assurance given that we will be able to implement our strategy and identify suitable acquisition candidates or consummate future acquisitions on acceptable terms. Our failure to successfully identify suitable acquisition candidates or consummate future acquisitions on acceptable terms could have an adverse effect on our prospects, business activities, cash flow, financial condition, results of operations and stock price.
36 |
Failure to complete the Merger or delays in completing the Merger could negatively impact our business, financial condition, or results of operations or our stock price.
The completion of the Merger is subject to a number of conditions and there can be no assurance that the conditions to the completion of the Merger will be satisfied at all or satisfied in a timely manner. If the Merger is not completed or is delayed, we will be subject to several risks, including:
· | the current trading price of our common stock may reflect a market assumption that the Merger will occur, meaning that a failure to complete the Merger or delays in completing the Merger could result in a decline in the price of our common stock; |
· | certain of our executive officers and/or directors or XpresSpa’s may seek other employment opportunities, and the departure of any of our or XpresSpa’s executive officers and the possibility that we would be unable to recruit and hire experienced executives could negatively impact our future business; |
· | our board of directors will need to reevaluate our strategic alternatives, such alternatives will include other merger and acquisition opportunities; |
· | under certain circumstances, if the Merger is terminated by either us or XpresSpa in connection with or due to our entering into an alternate transaction constituting a superior proposal, then we are required to pay to XpresSpa a fee equal to $750,000, plus an amount in cash equal to XpresSpa’s reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger, in an amount not to exceed $500,000; |
· | we are expected to incur substantial transaction costs in connection with the Merger whether or not the Merger is completed; and |
· | we would not realize any of the anticipated benefits of having completed the Merger. |
If the Merger is not completed or is delayed, these risks may materialize and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and our stock price.
