Notes to the CONDENSED Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

 

Note 1: Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Background

 

On December 14, 2009, America’s Suppliers, Inc. (“ASI”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. ASI is an internet-based provider of general merchandise through its wholly owned subsidiaries, DollarDays International, Inc. (“DollarDays”) and WowMyUniverse Inc. (“Wow”). DollarDays is a wholesaler of general merchandise to small independent resellers through its website, www.DollarDays.com. Wow is a retailer of general merchandise that focuses its business on sales to retail consumers through its website, www.WowMyUniverse.com. Orders are placed by customers through the websites of DollarDays and Wow, and upon receiving full payment for those orders, the related merchandise is shipped directly to the customer by third-party suppliers.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Annual Report”). The accounting policies are described in the “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” in the 2012 Annual Report and have been updated, as necessary, in this Quarterly Report. The year-end consolidated balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period.

 

A reclassification has been made to the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012. There was no change to previously reported stockholders’ equity or net income.

 

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when the four criteria for revenue recognition are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) shipment or delivery has occurred; (3) the price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Cash payments received in advance of product shipment are deferred as reflected as a deferred revenue liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Allowances for sales returns and discounts are recorded as a component of revenues in the period the allowances are recognized.

 

All amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling costs are included in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.  Actual shipping costs incurred are reflected as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  Total shipping expense included in cost of goods sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $463,092 and $877,001, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $505,940 and $923,193, respectively.

 

The Company has evaluated the provisions of GAAP Accounting Standards Codification Topic 605-45 regarding reporting revenue gross as a principal or net as an agent, noting that the task force determined that it is a matter of judgment and a preponderance of the evidence as to whether a company satisfies the gross versus net indicators.  As a result of its analysis, the Company has determined that it qualifies for “gross” revenue recognition.

 

Advertising revenue is recognized as the service is provided on our website.

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable represent amounts earned but not collected in connection with the Company’s revenues. Trade receivables are carried at their estimated collectible amounts and generally consist of amounts due from credit card transactions.

 

The Company follows the allowance method of recognizing uncollectible accounts receivable. The allowance method recognizes bad debt expense as a percentage of accounts receivable based on a review of individual accounts outstanding, and prior history of uncollected accounts receivable. The allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $0 as the Company expected to collect substantially all amounts due. Bad debt expense (recovery) was ($538) and $8,170 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and was $0 and ($12,792) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

The Company follows the allowance method of recognizing sales returns. The allowance method recognizes sales returns as a percentage of sales based on a prior history of sales returns. The allowance for sales returns at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $0. Sales returns expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 was $73,295 and $130,710 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $94,346 and $192,165, respectively.

 

Note 3: Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value measurements are performed in accordance with the guidance provided by GAAP Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820 (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset, or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or parameters are not available, valuation models are applied.

 

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the financial statements are categorized based upon the hierarchy of levels of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.

 

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supportable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

 

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, and short term receivables and payables. The carrying value of these instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.  

 

Note 4: Line of Credit

 

The Company has two revolving lines of credit with major financial institutions totaling $375,000.

 

The first line of credit, totaling $150,000, has no stated maturity date and interest payments are due monthly at an annual rate of 6.5%.  The second line of credit, totaling $225,000, has a stated maturity date of March 26, 2014 and interest payments are due monthly at an annual rate of prime plus 1.5% (with the prime rate never to be below LIBOR plus 2.5%).  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 the balance outstanding on these lines of credit was $0.  No interest expense was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Note 6: Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and excludes any potential dilution. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects potential dilution from the exercise or conversion of securities into common stock. The dilutive effect of the Company’s share-based awards is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes that all share-based awards are exercised and the hypothetical proceeds from exercise are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. As the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the incremental shares from assumed conversions of the Company’s potentially dilutive securities are not included in computing diluted net loss for those periods, as the effect would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, basic net loss per common share is equal to diluted net loss per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

The following represents a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted income per share computation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

 

   Three Months Ended June 30,   Six Months Ended June 30, 
   2013   2012   2013   2012 
                 
Net income (loss)  $(58,230)  $95,822   $(312,493)  $52,003

Stock options   993,086    1,233,070

Note 7: Subsequent Events

 

Effective July 25, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors elected Jeffrey Dorsey as the Vice President of Finance and Operations of the Company. Mr. Dorsey’s job responsibilities include functions typically performed by persons serving as a principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of a company of similar size and organizational structure as the Company.

 

Mr. Dorsey will initially receive an annual salary of $120,000, and will be entitled to bonuses, calculated monthly, that could range from 20% to 40% of his gross monthly salary. Prior to the end of 2013, the Company intends to grant Mr. Dorsey an option to acquire 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to a five year vesting schedule. Additionally, Mr. Dorsey will be entitled to other employment benefits, such as certain insurance benefits, similar to those received by other executives of the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Forward-Looking Information

 

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “America’s Suppliers,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to America’s Suppliers, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

 

The statements contained in this Quarterly Report that are not historical fact are forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which include statements regarding our plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions and resources. The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “intend,” “plan,” “could,” “is likely” or “anticipates,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but only predictions. No assurances can be given that the future results indicated, whether expressed or implied, will be achieved. While sometimes presented with numerical specificity, these projections and other forward-looking statements are based upon a variety of assumptions relating to the business of the Company, which, although considered reasonable by the Company, may not be realized. Because of the number and range of assumptions underlying the Company’s projections and forward-looking statements, many of which are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are beyond the reasonable control of the Company, some of the assumptions inevitably will not materialize, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur subsequent to the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and the Company assumes no obligation to update this information. Therefore, the actual experience of the Company and the results achieved during the period covered by any particular projections or forward-looking statements may differ substantially from those projected. Consequently, the inclusion of projections and other forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that these estimates and projections will be realized, and actual results may vary materially. There can be no assurance that any of these expectations will be realized or that any of the forward-looking statements contained herein will prove to be accurate.

 

The following discussion and analysis provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition.  The following selected financial information should be read in conjunction with our audited historical consolidated financial statements, which are included in our 2012 Annual Report and the forward-looking statements explanation included herein.

DollarDays’ objective is to provide a one-stop, discount, on-line shopping destination for general merchandise for smaller distributors, retailers and non-profit organizations nationwide that are seeking single and small cased-sized lots at bulk prices. We launched the DollarDays website to sell merchandise in October 2001. The site offers customers an opportunity to shop for bargains conveniently, while offering our suppliers an alternative sales channel. We believe the DollarDays website offers a unique benefit to smaller businesses in that they are able to purchase goods from wholesalers and importers in single and small case-sized lots, with no minimum purchase requirements, at discounted prices. We believe the prevailing reason DollarDays has been able to obtain bulk pricing for single case-sized lots is its ability to reach smaller distributors, retailers and non-profit organizations that most general merchandise suppliers cannot economically reach. We provide all the logistics and customer support to serve this sales channel and grow DollarDays’ customer base.

 

We continually add new, limited inventory products to the DollarDays website in order to create an atmosphere that encourages customers to visit frequently and purchase products before the available inventory sells out. Through its on-line catalog, DollarDays offers approximately 230,000 products, including up to 25,000 closeout items at further discounted prices. Closeout merchandise is typically available in inconsistent quantities and prices.

We accept orders, either online or via telephone, collect payment in the form of credit or debit card, PayPal or similar means, and coordinate with manufacturers, importers and close-out specialists regarding delivery particulars.  PayPal refers to the online payment platform located at www.paypal.com and its localized counterparts.  Our proprietary software and service procedures allow us to sell merchandise to a single customer, and bill as a singer order, items purchased and delivered from multiple suppliers.  We do not take possession of inventory, but we are responsible for processing customer claims and returns.

 

The DollarDays website has a registered base of approximately 230,000 small businesses and receives approximately 3 million monthly page views.  We receive an average of approximately 5,000 orders per month.  Our target customers are smaller businesses and not-for-profit companies.

 

In 2010, we established a majority-owned subsidiary, Wow, to develop a retail online business to sell directly to consumers. On October 1, 2010, this subsidiary became wholly-owned as we acquired the non-controlling interest in exchange for our interest in an unconsolidated subsidiary. While we experienced limited sales through test marketing in early 2011, we began full operations in the second half of 2011. Net losses from Wow were $23,386 and $35,214 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and were $14,154 and $47,668 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 respectively.

The Company incurred a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to the net income incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. This decrease in earnings is primarily due to a decrease in net revenues and an increase in sales and marketing costs and general and administrative costs, each of which is described above.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our operating cash outflows were $701,541 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to outflows of $182,105 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, constituting an increase in cash used by operations of $519,436. The change in net operating cash outflows is attributable to an increase in net loss of $364,496 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $323,324, partially offset by an increase in prepaid and other current assets of $197,201, and other minor changes in non-cash charges and operating assets and liabilities.

 

Investing cash outflows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 consisted of $7,449 of purchases of equipment to support our business operations. Investing cash inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of $215,009 of cash received from the maturities of certificates of deposit, offset by $42,742 of purchases of equipment and website development costs.

 

There were no financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 or 2012.

 

We intend to generate operating cash flows through the growth of our existing business, the improvement of operating margins and growth through acquisitions. Although there can be no assurance, management believes such measures will provide enough liquidity to operate our current business and continue as a going concern in the short term.
