The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
TANDY LEATHER FACTORY, INC.
1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements for Tandy Leather Factory, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of March 31,June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three-monththree and six-month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2016 and 2015. Operating results for the three-month periodthree and six-month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Inventory. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and is accounted for on the “first in, first out” method. Based on negotiations with vendors, title generally passes to us when merchandise is put on board. Merchandise to which we have title but have not yet received is recorded as inventory in transit. In addition, the value of inventory is periodically reduced for slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on management’s review of items on hand compared to their estimated future demand.
The components of inventory consist of the following:
| As of | As of |
| March 31, 2016 | | December 31, 2015 | June 30, 2016 | | December 31, 2015 |
Inventory on hand: | | | | | | |
Finished goods held for sale | $30,873,556 | | $30,487,764 | $33,047,533 | | $30,487,764 |
Raw materials and work in process | 1,227,891 | | 1,284,567 | 1,196,894 | | 1,284,567 |
Inventory in transit | 1,530,855 | | 1,812,208 | 2,060,168 | | 1,812,208 |
| $33,632,302 | | $33,584,539 | $36,304,595 | | $33,584,539 |
Goodwill and Other Intangibles. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, absent indicators of impairment during the interim. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires exercise of judgment, including the estimation of future cash flows, determination of appropriate discount rates and other important assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.
A two-step process is used to test for goodwill impairment. The first phase screens for impairment, while the second phase (if necessary) measures the impairment. We have elected to perform the annual analysis during the fourth calendar quarter of each year. As of December 31, 2015, management determined that the present value of the discounted estimated future cash flows of the stores associated with the goodwill is sufficient to support their respective goodwill balances. No indicators of impairment were identified during the first quartersix months of 2016.
A summary of changes in our goodwill for the periods ended March 31,June 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

We recorded amortization expense of $3,861$5,054 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $22,556 during the first quarter of 2016 compared to $11,278 during the first quarterhalf of 2015. All of our intangible assets, other than goodwill, are subject to amortization under U.S. GAAP. Based on the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the estimated amortization expense for each of the succeeding 5 years is as follows:

Revenue Recognition. Our sales generally occur via two methods: (1) at the counter in our stores, and (2) shipment by common carrier. Sales at the counter are recorded and title passes as transactions occur. Otherwise, sales are recorded and title passes when the merchandise is shipped to the customer. Our shipping terms are FOB shipping point.
We offer an unconditional satisfaction guarantee to our customers and accept all product returns. Net sales represent gross sales less negotiated price allowances, product returns, and allowances for defective merchandise.
Comprehensive Income (loss)(Loss) and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (loss)(Loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-stockholder sources and includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by and dividends to stockholders. Our comprehensive income (loss) consists of our net income and foreign currency translation adjustments from our international operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, which amends ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The amendments in this ASU are intended to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices and improve disclosure requirements. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-24, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date which proposed a deferral of the effective date by one year, and on July 7, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date by one year. The deferral results in the new revenue standard being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We are therefore required to apply the new revenue guidance beginning in our 2018 interim and annual financial statements. This ASU can be adopted either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Entities reporting under U.S. GAAP are not permitted to adopt this standard earlier than the original effective date for public entities (that is, no earlier than 2017 for calendar year-end entities.) We are evaluating what impact, if any, the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or financial disclosures.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, which amends ASC Topic 718, “Compensation–Stock Compensation.” The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition and should not be reflected in the estimate of the grant-date fair value of the award. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance can be applied prospectively for all awards granted or modified after the effective date or retrospectively to all awards with performance targets outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern”. This ASU codifies management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter, and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, “Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items”. This ASU simplifies income statement classification by removing the concept of extraordinary items from U.S. GAAP. As a result, items that are both unusual and infrequent will no longer be separately reported net of tax after continuing operations. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the new requirements did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory – Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which requires entities to measure most inventory “at the lower of cost and net realizable value (“NRV”), thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new guidance eliminates the need to determine replacement cost and evaluate whether it is above the ceiling (NRV) or below the floor (NRV less a normal profit margin). The guidance defines NRV as the “estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation”. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, which requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities to be classified as non-current on the balance sheet instead of separating deferred taxes into current and non-current amounts. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and may be adopted on either a prospective or retrospective basis. We do not expect that our adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, a comprehensive new standard that amends various aspects of existing accounting guidance for leases, including the recognition of a right of use asset and a lease liability for leases with a duration greater than one year. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We have not completed our review of the new guidance; however, we anticipate that upon adoption of the standard, we will recognize additional assets and corresponding liabilities related to leases on our consolidated balance sheet.
2. | NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT |
On September 18, 2015, we executed a Promissory Note and Business Loan Agreement with BOKF, NA dba Bank of Texas (“BOKF”), which provides us with a line of credit facility of up to $6,000,000. It has a two-year term and is secured by our inventory. The Business Loan Agreement contains covenants that we will maintain a funded debt to EBITDA ratio of no greater than 1.5 to 1, and that we will maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio greater than or equal to 1.2 to 1. Both ratios are calculated quarterly and are based on a trailing four quarter basis.
Also on September 18, 2015, we executed a Promissory Note with BOKF, which provides us with a line of credit facility of up to $10,000,000 for the purpose of purchasing our common stock. Under the terms of the Promissory Note, we can borrow sums up to the lesser of $10,000,000 or the purchase price of a maximum of 1.2 million shares of our common stock from the period September 18, 2015 and ending on the earlier of September 18, 2016 or the date on which the entire amount is drawn. During this time period, we will make interest onlyinterest-only payments monthly. At the end of this time period, the principal balance will be rolled into a 4-year term note. This Promissory Note is secured by a Deed of Trust on the real estate located at 1900 SE Loop 820, Fort Worth, Texas. For the quartersix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016, we drew approximately $2.9$3.7 million on this line of credit which was used to purchase approximately 404,000520,500 shares of our common stock. At March 31,June 30, 2016, the unused portion of the line of credit was approximately $3.4$2.6 million.
Amounts drawn under either Promissory Note accrue interest at the London interbank Eurodollar market rate for U.S. dollars (commonly known as “LIBOR”) plus 1.85% (2.278%(2.298% and 2.263% at March 31,June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively).
On July 31, 2007, we entered into a Credit Agreement and Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a credit facility of up to $5,500,000 to facilitate our purchase of real estate consisting of a 191,000 square foot building situated on 30 acres of land located at 1900 SE Loop 820 in Fort Worth, Texas. Proceeds in the amount of $4,050,000 were used to fund the purchase of the property that is our corporate headquarters. On April 30, 2008, the principal balance was rolled into a 10-year term note with an interest rate of 7.10% per annum. We paid this note in full in September 2015 and as a result of the early payoff, we incurred a prepayment penalty in the amount of $200,000 which was included in interest expense.
On July 12, 2012, we executed a Line of Credit Note with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., pursuant to which the bank agreed to provide us with a revolving credit facility of up to $4 million, which was subsequently increased to $6 million. The note expired on September 30, 2015. There was no balance owed on the line of credit at the expiration date.
At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, theThe amount outstanding under the above agreements consisted of the following:

4. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We have one stock option plan which permits annual stock option grants to non-employee directors with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the shares at the date of grant. Options outstanding and exercisable were granted at a stock option price which was not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date the option was granted and no option has a term in excess of ten years. Under this plan, no options were awarded to directors during the quarterssix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 and 2015 and therefore, no share based compensation expense was recorded for the quarterssix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2016 and 2015, the stock option activity under our stock option plans was as follows:

We have a restricted stock plan that was adopted by our Board of Directors in January 2013 and approved by our stockholders in June 2013. The plan reserves up to 300,000 shares of our common stock for restricted stock awards to our executive officers, non-employee directors and other key employees. Awards granted under the plan may be stock awards or performance awards, and may be subject to a graded vesting schedule with a minimum vesting period of four years, unless otherwise determined by the committee that administers the plan.
In February 2015, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 9,343 shares each. In addition, four of our independent directors were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 1,613 shares each. The grants will vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period. The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Compensation costs for these awards, net of forfeitures, will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.
In March 2016, our interim Chief Executive Officer and interim President were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 11,765 shares each. In addition, our five independent directors were awarded restricted stock grants consisting of 2,031 shares each. The grants will vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period. The fair value of non-vested restricted common stock awards is the market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Compensation costs for these awards will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year vesting period.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings. We are periodically involved in litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business and operations. There are no such matters pending that we expect to have a material impact on our financial position and operating results. Legal costs associated with the resolution of claims, lawsuits and other contingencies are expensed as incurred.
7. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We identify our segments based on the activities of three distinct operations:
a. | Wholesale Leathercraft, which consists of a chain of wholesale stores operating under the name, The Leather Factory, located in North America; |
b. | Retail Leathercraft, which consists of a chain of retail stores operating under the name, Tandy Leather Company, located in North America; and |
c. | International Leathercraft, which sells to both wholesale and retail customers. We have four stores operating in this segment: one in Northampton, United Kingdom; one in Manchester, United Kingdom (which opened in October 2015); one in Sydney, Australia; and one in Jerez, Spain. These stores carry the same products as our North American stores. |
Our reportable operating segments have been determined as separately identifiable business units, and we measure segment earnings as operating earnings, defined as income before interest and income taxes.

The retail stores averaged approximately $52,500 in sales per month for the first half of 2016. By comparison, these stores averaged $52,000 in sales per month for the first half of 2015.
Operating income for the first six months of 2016 decreased approximately $359,000 from the comparative 2015 period, decreasing as a percentage of sales from 10.7% in the first half of 2015 to 9.3% in the first half of 2016. Gross margin decreased from 60.0% in 2015 to 58.5% in 2016 due to the customer and product mix. The ratio of retail sales, which brings a higher margin, to non-retail sales, which brings a lower margin, can affect gross profit margin positively or negatively. Similarly, the ratio of leather sales, which brings a lower margin, to non-leather sales, which brings a higher margin, can cause gross profit to rise or fall. During the first six months of 2016, a larger percentage of our sales were to non-retail sales, resulting in a decrease in gross profit margin compared to the first six months of 2015. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 49.3% for the first half of 2016, a decrease from 49.4% for the first half of 2015, as expenses grew slightly slower than sales.
