INDUSTRIAL SERVICES OF AMERICA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") as produced by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") is the sole source of authoritative GAAP. The information furnished includes all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2014 and the results of our operations and changes in our cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Additional information, including the audited December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements and the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, management must make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as affecting the disclosures provided. Examples of estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, estimates of deferred income tax assets and liabilities, estimates of inventory balances, and estimates of stock option values. The Company also uses estimates when assessing fair values of assets and liabilities acquired in business acquisitions as well as any fair value and any related impairment charges related to the carrying value of inventory and machinery and equipment and other long-lived assets. Despite the Company’s intention to establish accurate estimates and use reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
We have reclassified certain income statement and balance sheet items within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the prior year in order to be comparable with the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported income (loss) or shareholders' equity.
Fair Value
We carry certain of our financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. These financial assets and liabilities are composed of cash and cash equivalents and derivative instruments. Long-term debt is carried at cost, and the fair value is disclosed herein. In addition, we measure certain assets, such as long-lived assets, at fair value on a non-recurring basis to evaluate those assets for potential impairment. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards, we categorize our financial assets and liabilities into the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 – Financial assets and liabilities with values based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market. Examples of level 1 financial instruments include active exchange-traded securities.
Level 2 – Financial assets and liabilities with values based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Examples of level 2 financial instruments include commercial paper purchased from the State Street-administered asset-backed commercial paper conduits, various types of interest-rate and commodity-based derivative instruments, and various types of fixed-income investment securities. Pricing models are utilized to estimate fair value for certain financial assets and liabilities categorized in level 2.
Level 3 – Financial assets and liabilities with values based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable in the market and significant to the overall fair value measurement. These inputs reflect management’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are based on the best available information, some of which is internally developed. Examples of level 3 financial instruments include certain corporate debt with little or no market activity and a resulting lack of price transparency.
When determining the fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value on a recurring basis, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and consider assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. When possible, we look to active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. When identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, we look to market observable data for similar assets and liabilities. Nevertheless, certain assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets, and we use alternative valuation techniques to derive fair value measurements.
We use the fair value methodology outlined in the related accounting standards to value the assets and liabilities for cash, debt and derivatives. All of our cash is defined as Level 1 and all our debt and derivative contracts are defined as Level 2. In accordance with this guidance, the following table represents our fair value hierarchy for Level 1 and Level 2 financial instruments at June 30, 2014 (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value at Reporting Date Using | | |
| | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets | | Significant Other Observable Inputs | | |
Assets: | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Total |
Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 741 |

| | $ | (16,779 | ) | | $ | (16,779 | ) |

| | (24 | ) | | (24 | ) |
We have had no transfers in or out of Levels 1 or 2 fair value measurements, and no activity in Level 3 fair value measurements for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 or 2013.
Stock Option Plan
We provide compensation benefits by granting stock options to employees and directors. The exercise price of each option is equal to the market price of our stock on the date of grant. The term of the option is 5 years. We recognize share-based compensation expense for the fair value of the awards, as estimated using the Modified Black-Scholes-Merton Model, on the date granted on a straight-line basis over their vesting term. Compensation expense is recognized only for share-based payments expected to vest. We estimate forfeitures at the date of grant based on our historical experience and future expectations.
There are two significant inputs into the Black-Scholes option pricing model: expected volatility and expected term. We estimate expected volatility based on traded option volatility of our stock over a term equal to the expected term of the option granted. The expected term of stock option awards granted is derived from historical exercise experience under our long-term incentive plan and represents the period of time that stock option awards granted are expected to be outstanding. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based payment awards represent management's best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. As a result, if factors change and we use different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, we are required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate, and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. If our actual forfeiture rate is materially different from its estimate, the stock-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what we have recorded in the current period.
As of May 16, 2014, we awarded options to purchase 292.0 thousand shares of our stock to our directors at a per share exercise price of $4.68, the fair value as of grant date. These shares were fully vested when awarded. As of June 30, 2014, we have no unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to non-vested option awards. Stock compensation charged to operations was $718.4 thousand and $48.0 thousand for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. See also Note 8 – “Long Term Incentive Plan” in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Long Term Incentive Plan and options granted under the plan.
Factoring fees and certain banking expenses
We have included factoring fees and certain banking expenses relating to our loans and loan restructuring within interest expense. Due to the decision to discontinue stainless steel blends, a subset of the stainless steel market, in 2013, we discontinued our factoring arrangements in 2014. We did not have any factoring fees for the six month period ended June 30, 2014. Factoring fees totaled $80.2 thousand for the period ended June 30, 2013. The loan fee amortization expense relating to our loans and loan restructuring totaled $43.1 thousand and $173.7 thousand for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Subsequent Events
We have evaluated the period from June 30, 2014 through the date the financial statements herein were issued for subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in ASU 2014-09 affect any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. We have not yet assessed the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 2 – INVENTORIES
Our inventories primarily consist of ferrous and non-ferrous, including stainless steel, scrap metals, and are valued at the lower of average purchased cost or market based on the specific scrap commodity. Quantities of inventories are determined based on our inventory systems and are subject to periodic physical verification using estimation techniques including observation, weighing and other industry methods. We recognize inventory impairment and related adjustments when the market value, based upon current market pricing, falls below recorded value or when the estimated volume is less than the recorded volume of the inventory. We record the loss in cost of sales in the period during which we identified the loss.
Some commodities are in saleable condition at acquisition. We purchase these commodities in small amounts until we have a truckload of material available for shipment. Some commodities are not in saleable condition at acquisition. These commodities must be shredded, torched, or baled. We do not have work-in-process inventory that needs to be manufactured to become finished goods. We include processing costs in inventory for all commodities.
Inventory also includes all types of industrial waste handling equipment and machinery held for resale such as compactors, balers, and containers, which are valued based on cost. Replacement parts for internal equipment is included in inventory and depreciated over a one-year life when placed in service. These parts are generally used by us within this one-year period as these parts wear out quickly due to the high-volume and intensity of the shredder function.

NOTE 3 – LONG TERM DEBT AND NOTES PAYABLE TO BANK
On June 13, 2014, the Company entered into a senior, secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Bank") pursuant to which the Bank granted the Company a revolving line of credit of up to $15.0 million (the "Revolving Loan"), up to $1.0 million of which is available to the Company as a sub-facility for letters of credit. The Company may borrow up to 85% of the value of its eligible accounts receivable and 65% of the value of eligible inventory under the Revolving Loan. An availability block in the amount of $1.3 million is currently in place. As we demonstrate to the Bank that no default or event of default shall have occurred or be continuing and the fixed charge coverage ratio, determined on a trailing twelve month period, for each of the most recent three consecutive months then ending, is at least 1.25:1, the availability block shall reduce to $1,000,000. As we demonstrate to the Bank that no default or event of default shall have occurred or be continuing and the fixed charge coverage ratio, determined on a trailing twelve month period, for each of the most recent three consecutive months then ending, is at least 1.50:1, the availability block shall reduce to zero.
The Credit Agreement also provided the Company with a secured equipment term loan of $2.8 million (the "Term Loan"). The Company used the proceeds from the Credit Agreement to repay in full its prior credit facility with Fifth Third Bank (the "Prior Credit Agreement").
The interest rate on the Revolving Loan is equal to daily three month LIBOR plus three percent (3.00%). The interest rate on the Term Loan is equal to daily three month LIBOR plus three and 25/100 percent (3.25%). In the Event of a Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under either the Revolving Loan or the Term Loan, the interest rate will increase by two percent (2.0%). Each of the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan has a maturity date of June 13, 2019.
Interest under the Revolving Loan is payable monthly in arrears. Principal and interest under the Term Loan is payable in sixty (60) monthly installments, with the first payment commencing July 1, 2014, and the final unpaid principal amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, charges, fees, or other advances, if any, to be paid on June 13, 2019.
The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including a minimum EBITDA covenant, a capital expenditure covenant, and a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, measured monthly on a trailing twelve month basis at the end of each month, beginning with the month ending June 30, 2015 of not less than 1.25 to 1.00.
The Company and each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, other than WESSCO, LLC ("WESSCO"), granted the Bank a first priority security interest in all of their assets pursuant to a Security Agreement, and each of the Company's subsidiaries guaranteed the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement pursuant to a Continuing Guaranty; provided that WESSCO's guarantee is subordinated to its obligations to the Bank of Kentucky, Inc.(described below), pursuant to a subordination agreement among Wessco, the Bank and the Bank of Kentucky, Inc. The Company paid loan origination fees totaling $125.0 thousand in connection with the Credit Agreement.
As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with our bank financial covenants. As of June 30, 2014, we had $1.1 million available under our existing credit facilities.
On October 15, 2013, WESSCO signed two promissory notes (collectively, the "KY Bank Notes") in favor of The Bank of Kentucky, Inc. ("KY Bank"), one in the amount of $3.0 million (the "Term Note") and one in the amount of $1.0 million (the "Line of Credit Note"). The Company used the proceeds from the Term Note to pay the Bank $3.0 million against the Prior Credit Agreement. The Company is a guarantor of the KY Bank Notes. The Company also signed a $3.0 million demand promissory note (the “Company Note”) in favor of WESSCO in exchange for the proceeds of the Term Note.
As security for the KY Bank Notes, WESSCO provided KY Bank a first priority security interest in all of its assets, including the Company Note. The KY Bank Notes impose a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Covenant on WESSCO under which: (i) the sum of (a) WESSCO’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, rent, and interest expense, less distributions and (b) unfunded capital expenditures, divided by (ii) the sum of (x) the current portion of long term debt due for the period, (y) interest expense and (z) rent expense is required to be at least 1.15 to 1 at all times. KY Bank will test this ratio annually measured for periods starting January 1 and ending December 31.
The interest rate on the KY Bank Notes and the Company Note is equal to the one month LIBOR plus three and one-half percent (3.50%) adjusted automatically on the first day of each month during the term of the KY Bank Notes, which have a maturity date of October 14, 2019. As of June 30, 2014, the rate was 3.65%. In the event of a default, the interest rate under the KY Bank Notes (but not the Company Note) will increase by five percent (5.00%).
The principal under the Term Note is payable in sixty (60) monthly installments as follows: $45.3 thousand for the first year, $47.5 thousand for the second year, $49.9 thousand for the third year, $52.4 thousand for the fourth year, and $54.4 thousand for the eleven months of the final year. As of June 30, 2014, the outstanding balance on the Term Note was $2.6 million.
Subject to certain limitations, WESSCO may request advances under the Line of Credit Note of up to $1.0 million for twelve (12) months after its effective date (the "Draw Period"). Advances made to WESSCO that have been repaid may be re-borrowed during the Draw Period. During the Draw Period, interest-only payments in the amount of all accrued and unpaid interest on the principal balance of the Line of Credit Note must be made monthly. At the conclusion of the Draw Period, the principal and interest is payable in sixty (60) monthly installments commencing on the first day of the month immediately following the end of the Draw Period. Any unpaid principal amount due, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, charges, fees, or other advances, if any, must be paid by October 14, 2019. As of June 30, 2014, the outstanding balance on the revolving line of credit was $307.7 thousand.
WESSCO cannot make demand for payment of the Company Note before July 31, 2019. In connection with these transactions, WESSCO paid loan fees totaling $20.0 thousand and other customary fees.
In October 2013, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with KY Bank swapping a variable rate based on LIBOR for a fixed rate. This swap agreement covers approximately $2.8 million in debt, commenced October 17, 2013 and matures on October 1, 2018. The swap agreement fixes our interest rate at 4.74%. At June 30, 2014, we recorded the estimated fair value of the liability related to this swap at approximately $24.0 thousand. We entered into the swap agreements for the purpose of hedging the interest rate market risk for the respective notional and forecasted amounts.

NOTE 4 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
Our operations include two primary segments: Recycling and Waste Services.
The Company’s two reportable segments are determined by the products and services that each offers. The Recycling segment generates its revenues based on buying and selling of ferrous and non-ferrous, including stainless steel, scrap metals, automobile parts, and fiber scrap. Waste Services’ revenues consist of charges to customers for waste disposal services and equipment sales and lease income. The components of the column labeled “other” are selling, general and administrative expenses that are not directly related to the two primary segments.
We evaluate segment performance based on gross profit or loss and the evaluation process for each segment includes only direct expenses and selling, general and administrative costs, omitting any other income and expense and income taxes.
The majority of the assets listed under the column labeled "other" are used by multiple segments and are difficult to allocate. We consider such assets corporate assets. Expenses related to these assets, including property taxes, insurance and utilities, are allocated to each segment based on a formula.

Other related party transactions are as follows:
Management Services payments to Algar, Inc.:
On December 2, 2013, we entered into a Management Services Agreement (the "Management Agreement") with Algar, Inc. ("Algar"). Under the Management Agreement, Algar provides us with day-to-day senior executive level services. Algar will also provide business, financial, and organizational strategy and consulting services, as our board of directors may reasonably request from time to time.
On December 2, 2013, in connection with the Management Agreement, our board of directors appointed Sean Garber as President. Under the Management Agreement, we will reimburse Algar for the portion of Mr. Garber’s salary that is attributable to Algar’s services under the Management Agreement in an amount not to exceed $20.8 thousand per month, or $250.0 thousand per year plus other expenses. During the six month period ended June 30, 2014, we expensed management fees to Algar of $190.1 thousand.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2014, we accrued a bonus payable to Algar in the amount of $340.0 thousand per the Management Agreement. During the six month period ended June 30, 2014, we sold scrap material in the amount of $329.0 thousand to Algar. As of June 30, 2014, we had $214.4 thousand in accounts payable to Algar and $27.0 thousand in accounts receivable from Algar.
Scrap material sales to Metal X, LLC:
During the six month period ended June 30, 2014, we sold scrap material in the amount of $889.7 thousand to MetalX, LLC. As of June 30, 2014, we had $119.2 thousand in accounts receivable from MetalX, LLC. For additional information regarding MetalX, LLC, see Note 11 - "Financing and Related Matters" to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 8 – LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
The Company’s long term incentive plan makes available up to 2.4 million shares of our common stock for performance-based awards under the plan. We may grant any of these types of awards: non-qualified and incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, and other stock awards including stock units, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and restricted stock. The performance goals that we may use for such awards will be based on any one or more of the following performance measures: cash flow, earnings, earnings per share, market value added or economic value added, profits, return on assets, return on equity, return on investment, revenues, or total shareholder return.
The plan is administered by a committee selected by the Board, initially our Compensation Committee, and consisting of two or more outside members of the Board. The Committee may grant one or more awards to our employees, including our officers, our directors and consultants, and will determine the specific employees who will receive awards under the plan and the type and amount of any such awards. A participant who receives shares of stock awarded under the plan must hold those shares for six months before the participant may dispose of such shares. The Committee may settle an award under the plan in cash rather than stock.
The Company uses the Modified Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model to value the Company's stock options for each stock option award. Using this option-pricing model, the fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant. The fair value of the Company's stock option awards, which are generally subject to pro-rata vesting annually over one year, is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the stock options. The expected volatility assumption is based on traded options volatility of the Company's stock over a term equal to the expected term of the option granted. The expected term of stock option awards granted is derived from historical exercise experience under the Company's stock option plans and represents the period of time that stock option awards granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected term assumption incorporates the contractual term of an option grant, which is five years, as well as the vesting period of an award, which is generally pro-rata vesting annually over one year. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield on a U.S. Treasury constant maturity with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the option granted.
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, for only those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. The Company estimates the forfeiture rates based on its historical experience. Treasury shares are issued for exercised options. The Company does not expect to repurchase any additional shares within the following annual period to accommodate the exercise of outstanding stock options.
The weighted average assumptions relating to the valuation of the Company's stock options awarded in January and May 2014 are shown below. No stock options were granted during 2013.

As of May 15, 2012, we awarded options to purchase 30.0 thousand shares of our stock each to our three new directors for a total of 90.0 thousand shares at a per share exercise price of $4.94, the fair value as of the grant date. We recorded expense related to these stock options of $48.0 thousand and $96.0 thousand in 2013 and 2012, respectively. These options vested as of May 2013 and expire in May 2017. As of January 16, 2014, we awarded options to purchase 30.0 thousand shares of our stock to our new independent director at a per share exercise price of $3.47, the fair value as of the grant date. We recorded expense related to these stock options of $59.4 thousand in the first quarter of 2014. These options vested immediately and expire in January 2019. As of May 16, 2014, we awarded options to purchase 292.0 thousand shares of our stock to our directors at a per share exercise price of $4.68, the fair value as of the grant date. We recorded expense related to these stock options of $659.0 thousand in the second quarter of 2014. These options vested immediately and expire in May 2019. On June 26, 2014, we received $126,900 from one of our directors as he exercised 30,000 share options. See Note 1 - "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of these Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the stock option plan.
As of December 1, 2013, subject to shareholder approval and vesting provisions, we granted options to purchase a total of 1.5 million shares of our Common Stock to Algar at per share exercise price of $5.00 pursuant to the Management Agreement. The closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market on December 2, 2013 was $2.54 per share. Per ASC Topic 718: Compensation - Stock Compensation, these options are not deemed to be granted for accounting purposes until shareholder approval is obtained. Accordingly, no amounts have been recorded relating to these options.
NOTE 9 - PRIOR YEAR LEGAL SETTLEMENT RELATED TO INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In previous years, we acquired businesses relating to the stainless steel blends market. An independent valuation consultant assessed the fair value of purchased intangibles for each acquisition. Identifiable intangibles totaling $6.2 million were originally recorded and included a trade name, a non-compete agreement, and a customer list. We amortized the trade name and non-compete agreements using a method that reflected the pattern in which the economic benefits were consumed or otherwise used over a 5-year life as stated in the agreements. We amortized the customer list on a straight-line basis over a 10-year life as estimated by management. Pursuant to a legal settlement, we canceled $144.7 thousand of our non-compete agreements balance effective February 28, 2013. A gain of $625.3 thousand was recorded as a result of this settlement.
The Court case relating to the legal settlement involved the competing claims for a declaratory judgment asking the Court to determine whether a previous employee was bound by a one-year or five-year non-compete agreement. The employee's employment with us ended in December 2010. The employee's interpretation of the non-compete agreement was that it did not apply to him individually, but to a business entity previously owned by the employee. Our position was that the non-compete agreement was required to be interpreted by the Court together with an asset purchase agreement, as amended, which reference the employee and another individual receiving all of the stock and money in consideration for several promised acts, including entering into the non-compete agreement. We also sought damages from the employee for allegations he breached his non-compete agreement. The parties mediated the case successfully on January 25, 2013. Mutual releases of all claims were entered by the parties, and the employee paid us $770.0 thousand in March 2013, which released him from the non-compete agreement.
Due to the continued decline in market-dependent variables, including prices of stainless steel materials, management determined we should discontinue production of stainless steel blends, a subset of the stainless steel market, in the fourth quarter of 2013. With this change in strategy, management determined the value of the intangible assets related to the stainless steel blend business was fully impaired. We recorded an impairment loss of approximately $3.5 million for the remaining value of these intangible assets in that quarter. These assets were previously included in Recycling. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has no intangible assets recorded on its balance sheet.
NOTE 10 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We have litigation from time to time, including employment-related claims, none of which we currently believe to be material.
Our operations are subject to various environmental statutes and regulations, including laws and regulations addressing materials used in the processing of our products. In addition, certain of our operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that impose limitations on the discharge of pollutants into the air and water and establish standards for the treatment, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. Failure to maintain or achieve compliance with these laws and regulations or with the permits required for our operations could result in substantial operating costs and capital expenditures, in addition to fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third party claims for property damage or personal injury, cleanup costs or temporary or permanent discontinuance of operations. Certain of our facilities have been in operation for many years and, over time, we and other predecessor operators of these facilities have generated, used, handled and disposed of hazardous and other regulated wastes. Environmental liabilities could exist, including cleanup obligations at these facilities or at off-site locations where we disposed of materials from our operations, which could result in future expenditures that we cannot currently estimate and which could reduce our profits.
ISA records liabilities for remediation and restoration costs related to past activities when our obligation is probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation are not discounted to their present value. Recoveries of environmental remediation costs from other parties are recorded as assets when their receipt is deemed probable. Costs of ongoing compliance activities related to current operations are expensed as incurred. Such compliance has not historically constituted a material expense to us.
Note 11 - Financing and Related Matters
Securities Purchase Agreement
On June 13, 2014, Industrial Services of America, Inc. (the "Company") issued 857,143 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") to Recycling Capital Partners, LLC (the "Investor"), an investment entity principally owned by Daniel M. Rifkin, former president of OmniSource Corporation and the founder and CEO of MetalX LLC, a scrap metal recycling company headquartered in Waterloo, Indiana, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000.50. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued to the Investor a five-year warrant to purchase 857,143 additional shares of the Company's common stock, exercisable 6 months after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement for an exercise price of $5.00 per share and expiring June 13, 2019. The net proceeds were allocated between common stock and warrants based on the relative fair value of the common stock and the warrants. The fair value of the warrants was estimated using a pricing model similar to that used for stock options. The Securities Purchase Agreement provides the Investor with preemptive rights and a right of first refusal with respect to future securities offerings by the Company. The Company expects to use the proceeds from the Securities Purchase Agreement for general corporate purposes including debt reduction, growth initiatives, capital expenditures, and potential acquisitions. Costs of $104,500 related to the Securities Purchase Agreement have been netted against the proceeds in the statement of shareholder equity.
Registration Rights Agreement
On June 13, 2014, in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Investor entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), under which the Company has agreed to (a) prepare and file a registration statement no later than December 12, 2014 and (b) cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than February 1, 2015 for (i) resales of the common stock issued to the Investor under the Securities Purchase Agreement, and (ii) resales of any shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant.
The Registration Rights Agreement requires the Company to pay the Investor a loss of liquidity fee for certain periods after February 1, 2015 when the registration statement is not effective or its use is suspended. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and customary provisions regarding rights of indemnification between the parties with respect to certain applicable securities law liabilities.
Director Designation Agreement
On June 13, 2014, in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Investor entered into a Director Designation Agreement (the "Director Designation Agreement") pursuant to which the Investor will have the right to designate, and require the Company's Board to appoint, up to two directors (each, a "Designated Director"). As of the date of this report, the Investor had the right to designate one director. A Designated Director will hold office until (i) his or her term expires and such Designated Director's successor designated by the Investor has been appointed or (ii) such Designated Director's earlier death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal, and the Investor shall have the right to appoint any successor to such Designated Director. The Investor's designation rights terminate at such time that the Investor and its affiliates collectively hold less than 5% of the Company's outstanding common stock. Pursuant to the Director Designation Agreement, the Company and the Investor agreed that the designation and appointment of the Designated Director nominees will not violate applicable law and will not cause the Company to become delisted from any securities exchange or other trading market.
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
The following discussion and analysis contains certain financial predictions, forecasts and projections which constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Actual results could differ materially from those financial predictions, forecasts and projections and there can be no assurance that we will achieve such financial predictions, forecasts and projections. Factors that could affect financial predictions, forecasts and projections include the fluctuations in the commodity price index and any conditions internal to our major customers, including loss of their accounts and other factors as listed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
General
We are primarily focusing our attention now and in the future towards our recycling business. We sell processed ferrous and non-ferrous scrap material to end-users such as steel mini-mills, integrated steel makers, foundries and refineries. We deliver all scrap ourselves or through third parties via truck, rail car, and/or barge. Some customers choose to send their own delivery trucks, which are weighed and loaded at one of our sites based on the sales order. We purchase ferrous and non-ferrous scrap material primarily from industrial and commercial generators of steel, iron, aluminum, copper, stainless steel and other metals as well as from other scrap dealers who deliver these materials directly to our facilities. We process these materials by shredding, sorting, cutting and/or baling. We will also continue to pursue a growth strategy in our waste services business segment, which includes management services and waste and recycling equipment sales, service and leasing.
We continue to pursue a growth strategy in the waste management services arena by adding new locations of existing customers as well as marketing our services to potential customers. Currently, we service over 900 customer locations throughout the United States and we utilize an active database of over 7,000 vendors to provide timely, thorough and cost-effective service to our customers. Along with positioning ourselves to efficiently service our customers, our management services division methods of competition include offering our clients competitive pricing, superior customer service and industry expertise.
Although our focus is on the recycling industry, our goal is to remain dedicated to the management services and equipment industries as well, while sustaining steady growth at an acceptable profit, adding to our net worth, and providing positive returns for stockholders. We intend to increase efficiencies and productivity in our core business while remaining alert for possible acquisitions, strategic partnerships, mergers and joint-ventures that would enhance our profitability.
We have operating locations in Louisville, Kentucky and Seymour and New Albany, Indiana. We do not have operating locations outside the United States.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash requirements generally consist of working capital, capital expenditures and debt service. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operations, various borrowing arrangements, including our revolving credit facility, as well as deferred payments to related parties; as described below, in the second quarter of 2014, we also raised $3 million from the sale of equity securities. We actively manage our working capital and associated cash requirements and continually seek more effective use of cash.
As of June 30, 2014, we held cash and cash equivalents of $0.7 million.
On June 13, 2014, the Company issued 857,143 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") to Recycling Capital Partners, LLC (the "Investor"), an investment entity principally owned by Daniel M. Rifkin, former president of OmniSource Corporation and the founder and CEO of MetalX LLC, a scrap metal recycling company headquartered in Waterloo, Indiana, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000.50. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued to the Investor a five-year warrant to purchase 857,143 additional shares of the Company's common stock, exercisable 6 months after the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement for an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Securities Purchase Agreement provides the Investor with preemptive rights and a right of first refusal with respect to future securities offerings by the Company. The Company expects to use the proceeds from the Securities Purchase Agreement for general corporate purposes including debt reduction, growth initiatives, capital expenditures, and potential acquisitions. For additional information regarding the Securities Purchase Agreement, see Note 11 - “Financing and Related Matters” of the Consolidated Financial Statements.
On June 13, 2014, the Company entered into a senior, secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association (the "Bank") pursuant to which the Bank granted the Company a revolving line of credit of up to $15.0 million (the "Revolving Loan"), up to $1.0 million of which is available to the Company as a sub-facility for letters of credit. The Company may borrow up to 85% of the value of its eligible accounts receivable and 65% of the value of eligible inventory under the Revolving Loan. An availability block in the amount of $1.3 million is currently in place. As we demonstrate to the Bank that no default or event of default shall have occurred or be continuing and the fixed charge coverage ratio, determined on a trailing twelve month period, for each of the most recent three consecutive months then ending, is at least 1.25:1, the availability block shall reduce to $1,000,000. As we demonstrate to the Bank that no default or event of default shall have occurred or be continuing and the fixed charge coverage ratio, determined on a trailing twelve month period, for each of the most recent three consecutive months then ending, is at least 1.50:1, the availability block shall reduce to zero.
The Credit Agreement also provided the Company with a secured equipment term loan of $2.8 million (the "Term Loan"). The Company used the proceeds from the Credit Agreement to repay in full its prior credit facility with Fifth Third Bank (the "Prior Credit Agreement"). The Company expects to use any remaining proceeds for working capital and other business purposes.
The interest rate on the Revolving Loan is equal to daily three month LIBOR plus three percent (3.00%). The interest rate on the Term Loan is equal to daily three month LIBOR plus three and 25/100 percent (3.25%). In the Event of a Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under either the Revolving Loan or the Term Loan, the interest rate will increase by two percent (2.0%). Each of the Revolving Loan and the Term Loan has a maturity date of June 13, 2019.
Interest under the Revolving Loan is payable monthly in arrears. Principal and interest under the Term Loan is payable in sixty (60) monthly installments, with the first payment commencing July 1, 2014, and the final unpaid principal amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, charges, fees, or other advances, if any, to be paid on June 13, 2019.
The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including a minimum EBITDA covenant, a capital expenditure covenant, and a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant, measured monthly on a trailing twelve month basis at the end of each month, beginning with the month ending June 30, 2015 of not less than 1.25 to 1.00.
The Company and each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, other than WESSCO, LLC ("WESSCO"), granted the Bank a first priority security interest in all of their assets pursuant to a Security Agreement, and each of the Company's subsidiaries guaranteed the Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement pursuant to a Continuing Guaranty; provided that WESSCO's guarantee is subordinated to its obligations under the KY Bank Notes, pursuant to a subordination agreement among WESSCO, the Bank and the Bank of Kentucky, Inc. The Company paid loan origination fees totaling $125.0 thousand in connection with the Credit Agreement. See Note 3 - "Long Term Debt and Notes Payable to Bank" to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company paid loan origination fees totaling $125.0 thousand in connection with the Credit Agreement. During the quarter ending June 30, 2014, the Company made interest payments under the Prior Credit Agreement totaling $167.9 thousand.
As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with our bank financial covenants. As of June 30, 2014, we had $1.1 million available under our existing credit facilities.
We have long term debt, including current maturities thereof and bank overdrafts, comprised of the following:
|
| | | | | | | |
| June 30, 2014 | | December 31, 2013 |
| (Unaudited) | | |
| (in thousands) |
Revolving lines of credit | $ | 11,342 |
| | $ | 13,063 |
|
Notes payable | 5,437 |
| | 4,829 |
|
| $ | 16,779 |
| | $ | 17,892 |
|
We expect that existing cash flow from operations and available credit under our existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for the next year and beyond, assuming compliance with the covenants in our Credit Agreement and assuming compliance with the covenants in our KY Bank Notes. See Note 3 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
See also "Financial condition at June 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013" section for additional discussion and details relating to cash flow from operating, investing, and financing activities. As of June 30, 2014, we do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures.
Results of Operations
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, the percentage relationship that certain captioned items in our Consolidated Statements of Operations bear to total revenues:
|
| | | | | |
| Six months ended |
| June 30, |
| 2014 | | 2013 |
Statements of Operations Data: | | | |
Total revenue | 100.0 | % | | 100.0 | % |
Total cost of sales | 95.8 | % | | 97.2 | % |
Selling, general and administrative expenses | 5.8 | % | | 5.3 | % |
Income (loss) before other expenses | (1.6 | )% | | (2.5 | )% |
Six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to six months ended June 30, 2013
Total revenue decreased $20.6 million or 27.5% to $54.3 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $74.9 million in the same period in 2013. With respect to the Recycling segment, Recycling revenue decreased $20.7 million or 29.0% to $50.8 million in 2014 compared to $71.5 million in 2013. This is primarily due to a decrease of 28.3 million pounds, or 88.4%, in the volume of stainless steel materials shipments. Substantially all of our stainless steel sales were to one customer. We did not have any long-term contracts with this customer or any other customer. We negotiate sale and purchase orders on a daily and monthly basis in the ordinary course of business. In the fourth quarter of 2013, management determined to discontinue the production of stainless steel blends, a subset of the stainless steel market. The shipments in the first quarter of 2014 related to the final sale of the remaining blend materials inventory.
While some scrap buyers provide consistently competitive pricing from year to year, others may provide competitive pricing one year but not the next. This market-driven competition causes our preferred buyer base to fluctuate from year to year. In the six month period ended June 30, 2014, sales to repeat Recycling scrap buyers decreased by approximately $19.7 million, or 27.5%, compared to the same period in 2013. In the six month period ended June 30, 2014, 25.0% of the sales to all Recycling scrap buyers were to new and competitively priced, intermittent scrap buyers. In the same period in 2013, 3.6% of sales to Recycling scrap buyers were to new and competitively priced, intermittent scrap buyers. In the six month period ended June 30, 2013, the amount sold to non-recurring Recycling scrap buyers who did not purchase goods from the Company in 2014 was equal to 60.2% of the total sales to Recycling scrap buyers during the six month period ended June 30, 2014. In the six month period ended June 30, 2012, the amount sold to non-recurring Recycling scrap buyers who did not purchase goods from the Company in 2013 was equal to 13.8% of the total sales to Recycling scrap buyers during the six month period ended June 30, 2013.
Total revenue in the six month period ended June 30, 2014, was adversely affected by a decrease in overall average price for all commodities shipped of $240.44 per gross ton, or 31.98%, as compared to the same period in 2013. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the volume of nonferrous materials shipments of 2,156.1 thousand pounds, or 31.8%, and an increase in the volume of ferrous materials shipments of 9.9 thousand gross tons, or 35.3%, during the six month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013.
With respect to the Waste Services segment, Waste Services' revenue increased $0.1 million or 4.5% to $3.5 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $3.4 million in 2013. During 2013, many customers grew and their business per location increased, which required higher volumes of service and increased management revenue by approximately $0.1 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. In general, the timing of services provided or equipment installed will cause fluctuations in Waste Services' revenue between periods.
Total cost of sales decreased $20.7 million or 28.5% to $52.0 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $72.8 million for the same period in 2013. With respect to the Recycling segment, Recycling cost of sales decreased $20.8 million or 29.6% to $49.5 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $70.3 million for the same period in 2013. This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in the volume of stainless steel materials shipments along with the discontinuation of stainless steel purchases and a decrease in overall average price for all commodities purchased of $212.38 per gross ton, or 30.7%.
Other notable decreases in the Recycling segment's cost of sales include the following:
| |
• | A decrease in labor, overtime and bonus expenses of $796.9 thousand; |
| |
• | A decrease in repair and maintenance expenses of $224.9 thousand; and |
| |
• | A decrease in hauling, fuel and lubricant expenses of $202.7 thousand. |
With respect to the Waste Services segment, Waste Services' cost of sales was constant at $2.5 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $2.5 million in the same period in 2013.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased $0.8 million or 20.3% to $3.1 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $3.9 million in the same period in 2013. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A was 5.8% in the first six months of 2014 as compared to 5.3% in the same period in 2013.
SG&A expenses had the following:
| |
• | A decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $0.6 million; |
| |
• | A decrease in lease and rent buildings, legal and travel expenses of $0.4; |
| |
• | A decrease in labor, overtime and bonus expense of $0.1 million; and |
| |
• | A decrease in management fees of $0.2 million; offset by |
| |
• | An increase in stock option expense and director fees of $0.5 million |
The amortization of $0.4 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2013 related to intangible assets for which an impairment loss of approximately $3.5 million was recorded for their remaining value in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Overall, the average number of active employees per week decreased in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 to 110 employees as compared to 144 employees in the same period in 2013, thus decreasing labor expenses in both cost of sales and SG&A in 2014 as compared to 2013.
Other expense increased $0.1 million to $0.4 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $0.3 million in the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to other income of $0.6 million related to proceeds from a legal settlement in 2013, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense in the first six months of 2014 of $0.5 million.
The income tax benefit decreased $845.9 thousand to an income tax provision of $46.5 thousand in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to a benefit of $799.4 thousand in the same period in 2013. The effective tax rates in 2014 and 2013 were (3.7)% and 37.2%, respectively, based on federal and state statutory rates. Due to recurring operating losses being incurred, at December 31, 2013, we recorded a full valuation allowance, which is continuing through June 30, 2014. We also have several state and franchise taxes payable based on gross receipts, thus causing a negative effective tax rate in 2014. The higher effective tax rate in 2013 was due to immaterial items.
Three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to three months ended June 30, 2013
Total revenue decreased $11.5 million or 28.6% to $28.6 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $40.1 million in the same period in 2013. With respect to the Recycling segment, Recycling revenue decreased $11.5 million or 30.0% to $26.8 million in 2014 compared to $38.2 million in 2013. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the volume of stainless steel materials shipments of 18.4 million pounds, or 100%, and a decrease in the overall average price for all commodities shipped of $326.93 per gross ton, or 47.8%, in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. These factors were partially offset by an increase in the volume of ferrous materials shipped of 7.0 thousand gross tons, or 22.8%. Substantially all of our stainless steel sales were to one customer. We did not have any long-term contracts with this customer nor do we with any other customer. We negotiate sale and purchase orders on a daily and monthly basis in the ordinary course of business. In the fourth quarter of 2013, management determined to discontinue the production of stainless steel blends, a
subset of the stainless steel market. The shipments in the first quarter of 2014 related to the final sale of the remaining blend materials inventory.
While some scrap buyers provide consistently competitive pricing from year to year, others may provide competitive pricing one year but not the next. This market-driven competition causes our preferred buyer base to fluctuate from year to year. In the three month period ended June 30, 2014, sales to repeat Recycling scrap buyers decreased by approximately $11.5 million, or 30.3%, compared to the same period in 2013. In the three month period ended June 30, 2014, 26.3% of the sales to all Recycling scrap buyers were to new and competitively priced, intermittent scrap buyers. In the same period in 2013, 6.7% of sales to Recycling scrap buyers were to new and competitively priced, intermittent scrap buyers. In the three month period ended June 30, 2013, the amount sold to non-recurring Recycling scrap buyers who did not purchase goods from the Company in 2014 was equal to 65.4% of the total sales to Recycling scrap buyers during the three month period ended June 30, 2014. In the three month period ended June 30, 2012, the amount sold to non-recurring Recycling scrap buyers who did not purchase goods from the Company in 2013 was equal to 13.5% of the total sales to Recycling scrap buyers during the three month period ended June 30, 2013.
With respect to the Waste Services segment, Waste Services' revenue stayed constant at $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $1.9 million in the same period in 2013 primarily due to a consistency in customers' Waste Services spending.
Total cost of sales decreased $12.3 million or 31.2% to $27.1 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $39.4 million for the same period in 2013. Recycling cost of sales decreased $12.2 million or 32.2% to $25.8 million in 2014 compared to $38.0 million for the same period in 2013. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the volume of stainless steel materials shipments. Overall average price per gross ton for all commodities purchased in the second quarter of 2014 also decreased $170.23, or 26.8%, as compared to the same period in 2013.
Additional decreases in the Recycling segment's cost of sales were as follows:
| |
• | A decrease in labor, overtime and bonus expenses of $448.8 thousand; and |
| |
• | A decrease in repair and maintenance, fuel and lubricant expenses of $109.0 thousand. |
Waste Services' cost of sales decreased $0.1 million or 5.6% to $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $1.5 million in same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in volume of locations serviced.
SG&A expenses decreased $0.2 million to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $2.1 million in the same period in 2013. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expenses were 6.7% in 2014 compared to 5.2% in 2013.
SG&A expenses had the following:
| |
• | A decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of $0.3 million; |
| |
• | A decrease in lease and rent buildings, legal and travel expenses of $0.2; and |
| |
• | A decrease in management fees of $0.2 million; offset by |
| |
• | An increase in stock option expense and director fees of $0.5 million |
Other expense decreased $364.8 thousand to $204.4 thousand in the second quarter of 2014 compared to $569.2 thousand in the same period in 2013, which was primarily due to an decrease in interest expense.
The income tax provision increased $0.7 million to a provision of $18.2 thousand in the second quarter of 2014 compared to a $0.7 million income tax benefit in the same period in 2013 primarily due to a loss reported in the second quarter of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2014. The effective tax rates in 2014 and 2013 were 2.9% and 36.1%, respectively, based on federal and state statutory rates. Due to recurring operating losses being incurred, at December 31, 2013, we recorded a full valuation allowance, which is continuing through June 30, 2014. We also have several state and franchise taxes payable based on gross receipts.
Financial condition at June 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013
Cash and cash equivalents decreased $0.8 million to $0.7 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $1.6 million as of December 31, 2013.
Net cash used in operating activities was $(1.8) million for the six month period ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in net cash from operating activities was primarily due to an increase in inventories of $3.3 million partially offset by depreciation and amortization of $1.6 million. The increase in inventories was primarily due to increased net purchasing volumes of ferrous and nonferrous materials of 12,725 gross tons for the six months ended June 30, 2014, offset by shipments of the remaining inventory of stainless materials. In connection to the discontinuation of stainless steel blends, in the first quarter of 2014, we shipped the remaining inventory related to those blends and did not replace it.
Net cash used in investing activities was $118.6 thousand for the six month period ended June 30, 2014. In the first six months of 2014, we purchased recycling and rental fleet equipment and vehicles of $192.1 thousand. The rental fleet equipment consists of solid waste handling and recycling equipment such as compactors, balers, pre-crushers, and containers. It is our intention to continue to pursue this market. We received $123.3 thousand from insurance proceeds relating to operating equipment and the sale of rental equipment.
Net cash from financing activities was $1.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2014. In the six month period ended June 30, 2014, we received proceeds of $3.0 million from the sale of common stock, proceeds from the re-financing of long-term debt of $12.2 million and we made payments on debt obligations of $13.3 million.
Accounts receivable trade decreased $1.4 million or 12.4% to $10.1 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $11.5 million as of December 31, 2013 due to receipt of customer payments in the first six months of 2014 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2013. In general, the accounts receivable balance fluctuates due to the timing of shipments and receipt of customer payments.
Inventories consist principally of ferrous and nonferrous scrap materials and waste equipment machinery held for resale. We value inventory at the lower of cost or market. Inventory increased $3.3 million, or 37.3%, to $12.1 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $8.8 million as of December 31, 2013. This increase is primarily due to purchases over shipments of ferrous and nonferrous material in the first six months of 2014 of 11.6 thousand gross tons, or 208.1% offset by shipments over purchases of stainless material in the first six months of 2014 of 1.7 thousand gross tons or 100%.

Inventory in the “Over 90 days” category as of June 30, 2014 includes $0.7 million in an item we intend to process and sell, $0.4 million in a low value item that can only be used in limited quantities and $0.1 million in older automobile inventory held at the ISA Pick.Pull.Save ("PPS") automobile yard for continued harvesting of parts by retail customers. After management determined to discontinue stainless steel blends, a subset of the stainless steel market, in the fourth quarter of 2013 and recorded an adjustment of $2.2 million to lower our stainless steel inventory to market value as of December 31, 2013, we sold the remaining stainless steel inventory in this category of approximately $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2014. The inventory balance as of December 31, 2013 also included $0.4 million in older automobile inventory held at the PPS automobile yard and $0.3 million in an item we intend to process and sell.
Accounts payable trade decreased $1.2 million or 19.0% to $5.4 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $6.6 million as of December 31, 2013. The accounts payable balance decreased due to discontinued purchases of stainless steel materials and payments of $0.9 million on outstanding payables relating to the production of stainless steel blends. Accounts payable trade is also affected by the timing of purchases from and payments made to our vendors.
Working capital increased $3.2 million to $15.4 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $12.2 million as of December 31, 2013. The increase was primarily from the proceeds of $3.0 million from the sale of common stock.

(1) | We lease the Louisville, Kentucky facility from K&R, LLC ("K&R") under an operating lease expiring December 2017. K&R is wholly-owned by Kletter Holding LLC, which is wholly-owned by a trust for which Orson Oliver, our interim CEO and Chairman of the Board, is trustee. We have monthly rental payments of $53.8 thousand through December 2017. In the event of a change of control of the Company, the monthly payments become $62.5 thousand. |
We also lease equipment from K&R for which monthly payments of $5.5 thousand are due through October 2015 and monthly payments of $5.0 thousand are due through April 2016.
We lease a lot in Louisville, Kentucky for a term that commenced in March 2012 and ends in February 2016. The monthly payment amount from March 2012 through February 2014 was $3.5 thousand. The monthly payment amount then increased to $3.8 thousand for the remaining term.
We also lease office space in Dallas, Texas for which monthly payments of $1.0 thousand are due through October 2013.
| |
(2) | All interest commitments under interest-bearing debt are included in this table, excluding the interest rate swaps, for which changes in value are accounted for in other comprehensive income. |
Long-term debt, including the current portions thereof, decreased $1.1 million to $16.8 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $17.9 million as of December 31, 2013 due to payments made on debt during the six month period ended June 30, 2014.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The amendments in ASU 2014-09 affect any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including
interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. We have not yet assessed the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Fluctuating commodity prices affect market risk in our Recycling segment. We mitigate this risk by selling our product on a monthly contract basis. Each month we negotiate selling prices for all commodities. Based on these monthly agreements, we determine purchase prices based on a margin needed to cover processing and administrative expenses.
We are exposed to commodity price risk, mainly associated with variations in the market price for ferrous and nonferrous metal, and other commodities. The timing and magnitude of industry cycles are difficult to predict and are impacted by general economic conditions. We respond to changes in recycled metal selling prices by adjusting purchase prices on a timely basis and by turning rather than holding inventory in expectation of higher prices. However, financial results may be negatively impacted where selling prices fall more quickly than purchase price adjustments can be made or when levels of inventory have an anticipated net realizable value that is below average cost.
We are exposed to interest rate risk on our floating rate borrowings.
Based on our average anticipated borrowings under our credit agreements in fiscal 2014, a hypothetical increase or decrease in the LIBOR rate by 1% would increase or decrease interest expense on our variable borrowings by 1% of the outstanding balance, excluding amounts covered under swap agreements as noted below, with a corresponding change in cash flows.
In October 2013, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement with KY Bank swapping a variable rate based on LIBOR for a fixed rate. This swap agreement covers approximately $2.8 million in debt, commenced October 17, 2013 and matures on October 1, 2018. The swap agreement fixes our interest rate at 4.74%. At June 30, 2014, we recorded the estimated fair value of the liability related to this swap at approximately $24.0 thousand.
We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates in the normal course of business. Our interest income and expense are most sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates and the LIBOR rate. In order to manage this exposure, we use a combination of debt instruments, including the use of derivatives in the form of interest rate swap agreements. We do not enter into any derivatives for trading purposes. The use of the interest rate swap agreement is intended to convert the variable rate to a fixed rate.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Disclosure controls and procedures.
ISA’s management, including ISA’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, ISA’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that ISA files under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to ISA’s management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure.
(b) Changes to internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in ISA’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect ISA’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We have litigation from time to time, including employment-related claims, none of which we currently believe to be material.
Our operations are subject to various environmental statutes and regulations, including laws and regulations addressing materials used in the processing of our products. In addition, certain of our operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations that impose limitations on the discharge of pollutants into the air and water and establish standards for the treatment, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes. Failure to maintain or achieve compliance with these laws and regulations or with the permits required for our operations could result in substantial operating costs and capital expenditures, in addition to fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third party claims for property damage or personal injury, cleanup costs or temporary or permanent discontinuance of operations. Certain of our facilities have been in operation for many years and, over time, we and other predecessor operators of these facilities have generated, used, handled and disposed of hazardous and other regulated wastes. Environmental liabilities could exist, including cleanup obligations at these facilities or at off-site locations where we disposed of materials from our operations, which could result in future expenditures that we cannot currently quantify and which could reduce our profits. Any environmental regulatory liability relating to our operations is generally borne by the customers with whom we contract and the service providers in their capacity as transporters, disposers and recyclers. Our policy is to use our best efforts to secure indemnification for environmental liability from our customers and service providers. ISA records liabilities for remediation and restoration costs related to past activities when our obligation is probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation are not discounted to their present value. Recoveries of environmental remediation costs from other parties are recorded as assets when their receipt is deemed probable. Costs of ongoing compliance activities related to current operations are expensed as incurred. Such compliance has not historically constituted a material expense to us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
We have had no material changes from the risk factors reported in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2014.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
The Company has issued to its non-employee directors options to purchase shares of common stock under the Company’s 2009 Long Term Incentive Plan. On June 26, 2014, one of the directors exercised options for 30,000 shares at an exercise price per share of $4.23, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $126,900. The Company issued the shares in a private transaction in accordance with Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The director acquired the shares of common stock for his own account. The Company has restricted the transfer of the shares.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information.
We held our 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2013 Annual Meeting”) on July 16, 2013. We anticipate holding our 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2014 Annual Meeting”) on Wednesday, October 15, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. (EDT). As the 2014 Annual Meeting date represents a change of more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the 2013 Annual Meeting, pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we have set a new deadline for the receipt of any shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2014 Annual Meeting. In order to be considered timely, such shareholder proposals must be received by us no later than August 22, 2014. This deadline will also apply in determining whether notice is timely for purposes of exercising discretionary voting authority with respect to proxies for purposes of Rule 14a-4(c) under the Exchange Act. All shareholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, and all notices of other shareholder proposals and director nominations, must be delivered to Michael P. Shannonhouse, Recording Secretary, at Industrial Services of America, Inc., 7100 Grade Lane, Louisville, Kentucky 40213. We reserve the right to reject, rule out of order or take other appropriate action with respect to any proposal or director nomination that does not comply with these and other applicable requirements.
