NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 (Unaudited)

 

(1)  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 3D Systems Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim reports. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Form 10-K”) for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of adjustments of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions.

 

Certain prior period amounts presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

 

All amounts presented in the accompanying footnotes are presented in thousands, except for per share information.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) or the retail inventory method. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-11 on its financial statements.

 

In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date” (“ASU 2015-14”), a revision to Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which was originally issued on May 28, 2014.  For public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans, the effective date was for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The effective date for all other entities was for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2015-14 will defer these effective dates for all entities by one year. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-14 on its financial statements.

 

In September 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-16, “Business Combinations: Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments” (“ASU 2015-16”). ASU 2015-16 requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2015-16 on its financial statements.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the third quarter of 2015, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(7)  Hedging Activities and Financial Instruments

 

The Company conducts business in various countries using both the functional currencies of those countries and other currencies to effect cross border transactions. As a result, the Company is subject to the risk that fluctuations in foreign exchange rates between the dates that those transactions are entered into and their respective settlement dates will result in a foreign exchange gain or loss. When practicable, the Company endeavors to match assets and liabilities in the same currency on its balance sheet and those of its subsidiaries in order to reduce these risks. When appropriate, the Company enters into foreign currency contracts to hedge exposures arising from those transactions. The Company has elected not to prepare and maintain the documentation to qualify for hedge accounting treatment under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and therefore, all gains and losses (realized or unrealized) are recognized in "Interest and other expense, net”  in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Depending on their fair value at the end of the reporting period, derivatives are recorded either in prepaid expenses and other current assets or in accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

There were no foreign currency contracts outstanding as of September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. 

 

For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the condensed consolidated statements of operations include a foreign currency transaction gain of $126 and loss of $1,641, respectively, compared to foreign currency transaction losses of $1,740 and $3,085, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the total impact of foreign currency translation on accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) reflects a loss of $9,075 and a loss of $15,315, respectively, compared to losses of $10,824 and $9,192, respectively, for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

(8) Borrowings

 

Credit Facility

 

On October 10, 2014, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a $150,000 five-year revolving, unsecured credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, HSBC Bank USA, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and the other lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement comprises a revolving loan facility that provides for advances in the initial aggregate principal amount of up to $150,000 (the “Credit Facility”).  Subject to certain terms and conditions contained in the Credit Agreement, the Company may, at its option, request an increase in the aggregate principal amount available under the Credit Facility by an additional $75,000.  The Credit Agreement includes provisions for the issuance of letters of credit and swingline loans.

 

The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). From time to time, the Company may be required to cause additional material domestic subsidiaries to become Guarantors under the Credit Agreement. 

 

Generally, amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either the Base Rate or the LIBOR Rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin.  Base Rate advances bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the highest of (A) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate, (B) the Federal Funds Open Rate plus 0.5% or (C) the Daily LIBOR Rate for a one month interest period plus 1%, and (ii) an applicable margin that ranges from 0.25% to 0.50% based upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. LIBOR Rate advances bear interest at a rate based upon the London interbank offered rate for the applicable interest period, plus an applicable margin that ranges from 1.25% to 1.50% based upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, (i) accrued interest on each loan bearing interest at the Base Rate is payable quarterly in arrears and (ii) accrued interest on each loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate is payable in arrears on the earlier of (A) quarterly and (B) the last day of each applicable interest payment date for each loan. The Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on October 10, 2019, at which time all amounts outstanding thereunder will be due and payable. 

  

The Company is required to pay certain fees in connection with the Credit Facility, including a quarterly commitment fee equal to the product of the amount of the average daily available revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement multiplied by a percentage that ranges from 0.20% to 0.25% depending upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio, as well as customary administrative fees. 

---

 

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and default provisions for a Credit Facility of this type, including, but not limited to, financial covenants, limitations on liens and the incurrence of debt, covenants to preserve corporate existence and comply with laws and covenants regarding the use of proceeds of the Credit Facility. The financial covenants include a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, which is the ratio of consolidated total funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense), as defined in the Credit Agreement, of 3.00 to 1.00, and a minimum interest coverage ratio, which is the ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to cash interest expense, of 3.50 to 1.00.  The Company is only required to be in compliance with the financial covenants as of the end of any fiscal quarter in which there are any loans outstanding at any time during such fiscal quarter. Based on current financial covenant limitations at September 30, 2015, availability on the Credit Facility would be approximately $110,000. Future results may positively or negatively impact availability.

 

The payment of dividends on the Company’s common stock is restricted under provisions of the Credit Facility, which limits the amount of cash dividends that the Company may pay in any one fiscal year to $30,000. The Company currently does not pay, and has not paid, any dividends on its common stock, and currently intends to retain any future earnings for use in its business. 

 

There was no outstanding balance on the Credit Facility as of September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

 

Capitalized Lease Obligations

 

The Company’s capitalized lease obligations primarily includes a lease agreement that was entered into during 2006 with respect to the Company’s corporate headquarters located in Rock Hill, SC. Capitalized lease obligations decreased to $8,895 at September 30, 2015 from $9,434 at December 31, 2014, primarily due to the normal scheduled timing of payments.

 

(9)  Stock-based Compensation Plans

 

Effective May 19, 2004, the Company adopted its 2004 Incentive Stock Plan, as further amended and restated on February 3, 2015 (the “2004 Stock Plan”) and its 2004 Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “2004 Director Plan”). On May 19, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2015 Incentive Plan of 3D Systems Corporation (the “2015 Plan” and, together with the 2004 Stock Plan, the “Incentive Plans”).

 

The 2015 Plan authorizes awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, cash incentive awards and the grant of options to purchase the Company’s common stock. The 2015 Plan also designates measures that may be used for performance awards.

 

The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2015 Plan is 6,300. Generally, each restricted stock award or restricted stock unit award is made with a vesting period of three years to five years from the date of grant.

 

The purpose of the 2015 Plan is to provide an incentive that permits the persons responsible for the Company’s growth to share directly in that growth and to better align their interests with the interests of the Company’s stockholders. Any person who is an employee or director of or consultant to the Company, or a subsidiary or an affiliate of the Company, is eligible to be considered for the grant of awards pursuant to the 2015 Plan. The 2015 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors or a subcommittee thereof, which, pursuant to the provisions of the 2015 Plan, has the authority to determine recipients of awards under that plan, the number of shares to be covered by such awards and the terms and conditions of each award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the full Board of Directors may grant and administer awards under the 2015 Plan to non-employee directors. The 2015 Plan may be amended, altered or discontinued at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors at any time.

 

The Company records stock-based compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Stock-based compensation expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was as follows:

 

 

---

 

The number of shares and units of restricted common stock awarded and the weighted average fair value per share and unit for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

 

 

 

For the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded $543 of stock compensation expense related to non-employee directors, compared to $849 for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

As of September 30, 2015, there were no shares or units under awards that remained subject to acceptance, compared to 35 shares or awards subject to acceptance as of September 30, 2014.

 

 

(10)  Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to 3D Systems Corporation available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the applicable period.

 

The following table reconciles basic weighted average outstanding shares to diluted weighted average outstanding for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

(11)  Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

 

For the Company, the above standard applies to cash equivalents and redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

 

 

 

The Company did not have any transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value measurement hierarchy during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

 

In addition to the financial assets included in the above table, certain of our non-financial assets and liabilities are to be initially measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. This includes items such as non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in a business combination (but not measured at fair value in subsequent periods) and non-financial, long-lived assets measured at fair value for an impairment assessment. In general, non-financial assets and liabilities, including goodwill, other intangible assets and property and equipment, are measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when impairment is recognized. The Company recorded a $1,111 impairment related to a venture investment as of September 30, 2015. There were no other adjustments or write-downs related to such assets or to any other significant non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities as of September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.
