Accounting Policies

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to interim financial statements. While these statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statement disclosures in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019.

The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Notes 2 and 13 provide information about the Company’s adoption of new accounting standards for leases. Unless otherwise noted, amounts presented within the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements refer to the Company’s continuing operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financialCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

On an ongoing basis, the Companymanagement evaluates theirits estimates, including those related to warranty obligation,obligations, sales commission, accounts receivable and sales allowances, valuation of inventories, fair valuesvalue of goodwill, useful lives of property and equipment, incremental borrowing rates related to the Company’s leases, assumptions regarding variables used in calculating the fair value of the Company's equity awards, expected achievement of performance based vesting criteria, management performance bonuses, fair value of investments, the standalone selling price of the Company's products and services, the customer life and period of benefit used to capitalize and amortize contracts acquisition costs, variable consideration, contingent liabilities, recoverability of deferred tax assets, and effective income tax rates, among others.rates. Management bases their estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company's future results of operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company's future operating results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, rapid technological change, continued acceptance of the Company's products, stability of world financial markets, cybersecurity breaches and other disruptions that could compromise the Company’s information or results, management of international activities, competition from substitute products and larger companies, ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval,approvals, government regulations and oversight, patent and other litigations,types of litigation, ability to protect proprietary technology from counterfeit versions of the Company's products, strategic relationships and dependence on key individuals.

The Company's manufacturers and suppliers may encounter supply interruptions or problems during manufacturing due to a variety of reasons, including failure to comply with applicable regulations, including the FDA's Quality System Regulation, equipment malfunction and environmental factors, any of which could delay or impede the Company's ability to meet demand.

 

ComparabilityRecently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company adopted the new revenue standard effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method. Prior period financial statements were not retrospectively restated. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 were prepared using an accounting standard that was different than that in effect for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. As a result the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are not directly comparable, nor are the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” amending revenue recognition guidance2016-02, "Leases," (also known as ASC Topic 842) which requires, among other items, a lessee to recognize most leases as assets and requiring more detailedliabilities on the balance sheet. Qualitative and quantitative disclosures were enhanced to enable users of financial statements tobetter understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amended guidance, herein referredleases. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, "Targeted Improvements," which gives the option to asapply the transition provisions of ASU 2016-02 at its adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in its financial statements. In addition, ASU 2018-11 provides a practical expedient that permits lessors to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. Also in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, "Codification Improvements to ASC Topic 606, is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for public companies effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. 842, Leases," which clarifies certain aspects of ASU 2016-02.

The Company adopted the new revenue standard in the first quarterASU 2016-02, as of fiscal year 2018January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method.method, to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The Company recognized the cumulative effect of applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to retained earnings. The comparative period information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the period presented. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allowed the Company to carry forward the Company’s historical conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to land easements, allowing the Company to carry forward the Company’s accounting treatment for land easements on existing agreements. The Company did not elect the practical expedient to use hindsight in determining the lease term.

The adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of additional lease assets and lease liabilities of $10.3 million and $10.4 million, respectively, as of January 1, 2019, based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for existing operating leases. The difference between the additional lease assets and lease liabilities results from rent-free periods which were previously recorded as deferred rent. The Company’s accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. The standard had no material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated net earnings, results of operations, comprehensive loss, statements of changes in equity, and cash flows.

Other Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, "Compensation –Stock"Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvement to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting". The new guidance changes the accounting for nonemployee awards including: (1) Equity-classifiedequity-classified share-based payment awards issued to nonemployees will be measured on the grant date, instead of the previous requirement to remeasure the awards through the performance completion date, (2) Forfor performance conditions, compensation cost associated with the award will be recognized when the achievement of the performance condition is probable, rather than upon achievement of the performance condition, and (3) Thethe current requirement to reassess the classification (equity or liability) for nonemployee awards upon vesting will be eliminated, except for awards in the form of convertible instruments. The new guidance also clarifies that any share-based payment awards issued to customers should be evaluated under ASC Topic 606. The amendments in the new guidance are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted for public companies, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of ASC Topic 606. The Company will adoptadopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019.

Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract

In February 2016,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases"2018-15, Intangibles (Topic 842),350): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which amendsaligns the existing accounting standardsrequirements for leases. The new standard requires lesseescapitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet (with the exception of short-term leases). The newdevelop or obtain internal-use software. This standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding leasing arrangements.customers to amortize the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement. The new standard becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal yearafter December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. The newCompany is planning to early adopt this standard on a prospective basis for applicable implementation costs, and is requiredcurrently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance to be adopted using the modified retrospective approach and requires applicationits financial statements.

Note 2. Effect of Adoption of the new lease standard at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company finances its fleet of vehicles used by its field sales and service employees and has facility leases. Several of the Company’s customers finance purchases of its system products through third party lease companies and not directly with the Company. The Company does not believe that the new standard will change customer buying patterns or behaviors for its products. The Company will adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2019. The Company expects that upon adoption, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities will be recognized in the balance sheet in amounts that will be material.

Note 2. Revenue recognition(ASC Topic 842) on Condensed consolidated financial statements

 

The Company adopted ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers,"842, Lease, on January 1, 2018,2019, applying the modified retrospective method to all contract agreements that wereleases existing at the date of initial application. The comparative information has not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are notbeen adjusted and continuecontinues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the prior period. A cumulative catch up adjustment was recorded to beginning retained earnings to reflect the impact of all existing arrangements under Topic 606.

Upon adoption of the Topic 606, the Company recorded an increase to retained earnings, net of deferred tax liability of $3.8 million (Note 12) for contracts still in force as of January 1, 2018 for the following items in the first and second quarters of 2018:

$237,000 reduction in deferred revenue balances for the differences in the amount of revenue recognition for the Company’s revenue streams as a result of allocation of revenue based on standalone selling prices to the Company’s various performance obligations.

$151,000 increase in deferred revenue balances, related to the accretion of financing costs for multi-year post-warranty service contracts for customers who pay more than one year in advance of receiving the service. The Company estimated interest expense for such advance payments under the new revenue standard.

$210,000 for variable consideration on sale transactions.

$4.7 million for the capitalization of the incremental contract acquisition costs, such as sales commissions paid in connection with system sales. These contract acquisition costs were capitalized and will be amortized over the period of anticipated support renewals. The Company expensed such costs when incurred under the prior guidance.

●  $1.2 million deferred tax liability related to the direct tax effect of the ASC 606 adoption. 

The Company’s revenue consists of product and service revenue resulting from the sale of systems, training on the systems, extended service contracts, consumables and other accessories. The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is a legally enforceable contract between the Company and the customer, the rights of the parties are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of the contract consideration is probable. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company's system sale arrangements generally contain multiple products and services. For these bundled sale arrangements, the Company accounts for individual products and services as separate performance obligations if they are distinct, which is if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package, and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The Company’s system sale arrangements include a combination of the following performance obligations: The System and software license (considered as one performance obligation), system accessories (hand pieces), training, other accessories, extended service contracts and marketing services. For the Company’s system sale arrangements that include an extended service contract, the period of service commences at the expiration of the Company’s standard warranty offered at the time of the system sale. The Company considers the extended service contracts terms in the arrangements that are legally enforceable to be performance obligations. Other than extended service contracts and marketing services (which are satisfied over time), the Company generally satisfies all of the performance obligations at a point in time. Systems, system accessories (hand pieces), training, and time and material services are also sold on a stand-alone basis.

Adoption of the standard had no impact on total net cash from or used in operating, investing, or financing activities within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

As part of the Company's adoption of ASC 606, the Company elected to use the following practical expedients: (i) not to adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between the Company's transfer of a promised product or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less; (ii) to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract when the amortization period would have been one year or less; (iii) not to recast revenue for contracts that begin and end in the same fiscal year; and (iv) not to assess whether promised goods or services are performance obligations if they are immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer.

 

 

Note 3. Note 3. Cash, Cash EquivalentEquivalents and Marketable Investments

 

The Company invests its cash primarily in money market funds and in highly liquid debt instruments of U.S. federal and municipal governments and their agencies, commercial paper and corporate debt securities. All highly liquid investments with stated maturities of three months or less from date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents; all highly liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months are classified as marketable investments. The majority of the Company’s cash and investments are held in U.S. banks and itsthe Company's foreign subsidiaries maintain a limited amount of cash in their local banks to cover their short term operating expenses.

 

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in marketable securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation at each balance sheet date. The Company’s marketable securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale securities. Investments with remaining maturities of more than one year are viewed by the Company as available to support current operations and are classified as current assets under the caption marketable investments in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Investments in marketable securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of stockholders’ equity. Any realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities are determined on a specific identification method, and such gains and losses are reflected as a component of interest and other income, net.

 

The following tables summarize the components, and the unrealized gains and losses position, related to the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable investments (in thousands) as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017::

Note 4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

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 determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. Carrying amounts of theThe Company’s financial instruments includinginclude cash equivalents, marketable investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities,liabilities. Carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments approximate their fair values as of the balance sheet dates because ofgiven their generally short maturities. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below in accordance towith ASC 820:

 

● Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities.

● Level 2: Directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date through correlation with market data, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices in markets that are not active. Level 2 also includes assets and liabilities that are valued using models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment since the input assumptions used in the models, such as interest rates and volatility factors, are corroborated by readily observable data from actively quoted markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

● Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

 

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

Nature of Products and Services

 

Systems

System revenue represents the sale of a system or an upgrade of an existing system. A system consists of a console that incorporates a universal graphic user interface, a laser and or other energy based module, control system software and high voltage electronics, as well as one or more hand pieces. However, depending on the application, the laser or other energy based module is sometimes contained in the hand piece such as with the Company’s Pearl and Pearl Fractional applications instead of within the console.

 

The Company offers customers the ability to select the system that best fits their practice at the time of purchase and then to cost-effectively add applications to their system as their practice grows. This provides customers the flexibility to upgrade their systems whenever they choose and provides usthe Company with a source of additional Systems revenue.

 

The Company has concludedconcludes that the system or upgrade and the right to use the embedded software represent a single performance obligation as the software license is integral to the functionality of the system or upgrade.

 

The Company considers set-up ordoes not identify calibration and installation anservices for systems other than enlighten as performance obligations because such services are immaterial promise as set-up orin the context of the contract. The related costs to complete calibration and installation for systems other than enlightenare immaterial. Calibration and installation services for enlighten systems takes only a short time. The related costs to complete set-up or installation are immaterial to the Company. The enlighten system is one performance obligation and the calibration or installation service is aidentified as separate performance obligation.obligations.

 

For systems sold directly to end-customers that are credit approved, revenue is recognized when the Company transfers control to the end-customer, which occurs when the product is shipped to the customer or when the customer receives the product, depending on the nature of the arrangement. The Company recognizes revenue on cash basis for system sales to international direct end-customer salesend-customers that have not been credit approved, after satisfying all remainingwhen the performance obligations ofin the agreement.contract are satisfied. For systems sold through credit approved distributors, revenue is recognized at the time of shipment. The Company’s system arrangements generally do not provide a right of return. The Company provides a standard one-year warranty coverage for all systems sold to end-customers to cover parts and service, and extended service plans that vary by the type of product and the level of service desired.

 

The Company typically receives payment for its system consoles and other accessories within 30 days of shipment. Certain international distributor arrangements allow for longer payment terms.

 

Skincare products

The Company sells third-party manufactured skincare products in Japan. The Company purchases and inventories these third-party skincare products are purchased from the third-party manufacturers and sells themsold to licensed physicians. The Company acts as the principal in this arrangement, as it determines the price to charge customers for the skincare products, and controls the products before they are transferred to the customer. Skincare products are typically sold in contracts in which the skincare products represent the sole performance obligations. The Company recognizes revenue for skincare products at a point in time, generally upon shipment.

Consumables (Other accessories)

The Company treats its customers' purchasepurchases of replacement Titan, truSculpt 3D and truSculpt iD hand pieces as Consumable revenue, which provides the Company with a source of recurring revenue from existing customers. The Company’s recently launched Julietand Secret RFproducts have single use disposable tips which need tomust be replaced after every treatment. SaleSales of these consumable tips further enhance the Company’s recurring revenue stream.revenue. Hand piece refills of the Company’s legacy truSculptproduct are accounted for in accordance with the Company’s standard warranty and service contract policies.

 

Extended contract services

 

The Company offers post-warranty services to its customers through extended service contracts that cover preventive maintenance and or replacement parts and labor for a term of one, two, or three years, or by direct billingyears. Service contract revenue is recognized over time, using a time based measure of progress, as the customers benefit from the service throughout the service period. The Company also offers services on a time-and-materials basis for systems and detachable hand piece replacements, parts and labor. Revenue related to services performed on a time-and-materials basis is recognized when performed. These post-warranty services serve as additional sources of recurring revenue from the Company’s installed product base.

Training

Sales of systemsystems to customers include training on the use of the system to be provided within 90180 days of purchase. The Company considers training as a separate performance obligation as customers can immediately benefit from the training due totogether with the fact that the customer already has thecustomer’s system. Training is also sold separately from systems. The Company recognizes revenue for training when the training is provided. Training is not required for customers to use the systems.

 

Customer Marketing Support

Significant Judgments

 

More judgments and estimates are required under Topic 606 than were required under the previous revenue recognition guidance, Topic 605. Revenue recognition under Topic 606 for the Company’s arrangements may be dependent on contract-specific terms.

The enlighten system includes the related software license as one performance obligation and the calibration/installation services are accounted for as separate performance obligations. The calibration/installation is a separate performance obligation for the enlighten system because a knowledgeable third-party could perform this service.

The Company has however concluded that set-up or installation for all other systems (excluding the enlighten system) is perfunctory as the set-up or installation for systems other than enlighten take only a short time and the related costs to complete set-up or installation are immaterial.

14

Judgment is required to determine the standalone selling price ("SSP") for each distinct performance obligation. The Company estimates SSPs for each performance obligation as follows:

Systems: The SSPs for systems are based on directly observable sales in similar circumstances to similar customers.  When SSP is not directly observable, the Company estimates SSP using the expected cost plus margin approach.

Training: SSP is based on observable price when sold on a standalone basis.

Extended warranty: SSP is based on observable price when sold on a standalone basis (by customer type).

Marketing program: SSP is estimated based on cost plus margin.

The Company will combinecombines two or more contracts entered into at or near the same time with the same customer (or related parties of the customer) and accountaccounts for the contracts as a single contract. IfThe contracts are negotiated as a group of agreements are so closely related that they are, in effect, part ofpackage with a single arrangement, such agreements are deemed to be one arrangement for revenue recognition purposes.commercial objective. The Company exercises significant judgment to evaluatedetermine whether each separate contract in the relevant facts and circumstances in determining whether the separate agreements should be accounted for separately or as, in substance, a single arrangement. The Company’s judgments about whether a group ofcombined contracts comprise a single arrangement can affect the allocation of consideration to thecontains distinct performance obligations, which could have an effect on results of operations for the periods involved.

 

The Company is required to estimate the total consideration expected to be received from contracts with customers. In limited circumstances, the consideration expected to be received is variable based on the specific terms of the contract or based on the Company’s expectations of the term of the contract. Generally, theThe Company has not experienced significant returns or refunds to customers. These estimates requireEstimating consideration expected to be received from contracts with customers requires significant judgment and the change in these estimates could have an effect on its results of operations during the periods involved.

 

The Company determines standalone selling price ("SSP") for each performance obligation as follows:

Systems: The SSPs for systems are based on directly observable sales in similar circumstances to similar customers. When SSP is not directly observable, the Company estimates SSP using the expected cost plus margin approach.

Training: SSP is based on observable price when sold on a standalone basis.

Extended warranty/Service contracts: SSP is based on observable price when sold on a standalone basis (by customer type).

Customer Marketing Support: SSP is estimated based on cost plus a margin.

Set-up /Installation: Set-up or installation for all other systems, excluding the enlighten system, is immaterial in the context of the contract. The related costs to complete set-up or installation are immaterial.

The calibration and installation service of the enlighten system are treated as separate performance obligations because the Company regularly sells enlighten systems without the calibration and installation service.

Loyalty Program

The Company launched a customer loyalty program during the third quarter of 2018 for qualified customers located in the U.S. and Canada. Under the programs, customers accumulate points based on their purchasing levels. Once a loyalty program member achieves a certain tier level, the member earns a reward. A customer’s account has to be in good standing in order to receive the benefits of the rewards program. Rewards are given on a quarterly basis and must be used in the following quarter. Customers receive a notification regarding their rewards tier by the fifth (5th) day of the following quarter. All unused rewards are forfeited. The fair value of the reward earned by loyalty program members is included in accrued liabilities and recorded as a reduction of net revenue at the time the reward is earned.

The Company uses the portfolio method to recognize the amortization expense related to these capitalized costs related to initial contracts and such expense is recognized over a period associated with the revenue of the related portfolio, which is generally two to three years for the Company’s product and service arrangements.years.

 

Total net capitalized costs as of June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 were $5.3$5.1 million and are included in other long-term assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Amortization of this assetthese assets was $0.4$0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 and is included in sales and marketing expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statementsstatement of operations.

Note 8. Contract balance

The Company’s service contracts include an upfront payment for the one, two or three-year contract terms. The timing of receipt of payment and timing of performance of the services create timing differences that result in deferred revenue on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. The advance payments under these contracts are recorded in deferred revenue, and the Company recognizes the revenue when earned. Contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations were approximately $11.8 million as of June 30, 2018, of which the Company expects to recognize approximately 78% of the revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.

The Company's deferred contract revenue consists of service revenue, training and product revenue. Deferred contract revenue balance is comprised mainly of Service revenue. The Company generates Service revenue from the sale of extended service contracts and from time and material services provided to customers who are not under a warranty or extended service contract. Service contract revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the applicable contract. Service revenue from time and material services is recognized as the services are provided.

Note 10.10. Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. In periods of net income, diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive effect of in-the-money equity awards (stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and employee stock purchase plan contributions), which is calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. In accordance with ASC 260, the assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method include the average unrecognized compensation expense of in-the money stock options and restricted stock units. This results in the assumed buyback of additional shares, thereby reducing the dilutive impact of equity awards.

 

Diluted earnings per share is the same as basic earnings per share for the periods in which the Company had a net loss because the inclusion of outstanding common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) and the weighted average number of shares used in computing basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share data):

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, under which deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2017,2018, the Company released itshad a 100% valuation allowance against its U.S. federal and all other domestic state net deferred tax assets except for California and Massachusetts. The Company maintained thisassets. There was no valuation allowance position through June 30, 2018. during the three months ended March 31, 2018 other than the California jurisdiction.

Significant management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In evaluating the ability to recover deferred tax assets, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence.evidence giving greater weight to its recent cumulative losses and lesser weight to its projected financial results due to the subjectivity involved in forecasting future periods. The Company also considered, commensurate with its objective verifiability, the forecast of future taxable income including the reversal of temporary differences and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies and the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Act”).strategies.

 

 

Note 12. Correction of Prior Period Immaterial ErrorLeases

 

DuringThe Company has operating and finance leases for vehicles, office space and storages. The Company’s material operating leases consist of office space, as well as storage facilities.

The Company leases space for operations in the United States, Japan and France. In addition to the above facility leases, the Company hadalso routinely leases automobiles for certain sales and field service employees under operating leases.

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not recordedyet paid. Operating lease assets represent the tax effectright to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, the Company estimates the incremental secured borrowing rates corresponding to the maturities of the adoptionleases. The Company based the rate estimates on prevailing financial market conditions, credit analysis, and management judgment.

The Company recognizes expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, tenant incentives used to fund leasehold improvements are recognized when earned and reduce our right-of-use asset related to the lease. These are amortized through the right-of-use asset as reductions of ASC 606 inexpense over the lease term.

All of the Company’s principal operations and decision-making functions are located in the U.S. The Company’s CEO viewedviews its operations, managedmanages its business, and useduses one measurement of profitability for the one operating segment - which sells aesthetic medical equipment and services, and distributes skincare products, to qualified medical practitioners. Substantially all of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the U.S.

The Revolving Line of Credit terminates on May 30, 2021. The purpose of the Revolving Line of Credit is to provide working capital and to fund the Company’s general business requirements.

The Revolving Line of Credit bears interest at a variable interest rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus a defined LIBOR Rate Margin based on the then-current Leverage Ratio (a ratio of funded debt to the Trailing Twelve Month ("TTM") Adjusted EBITDA).

The Revolving Line of Credit provides for borrowing limits that range from $5,000,000 to a maximum of $25,000,000 during the term of the Revolving Line of Credit. Additionally, the Company agrees to pay a variable unused commitment fee to Wells Fargo equal to (a) 0.25% per annum if the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.0 to 1.0, (b) 0.30% per annum if the Leverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.0 to 1.0, but less than 2.0 to 1.0, and (c) 0.35% per annum if the Leverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 2.0 to 1.0.

The Revolving Line of Credit is secured by a pledge of security interest in all the shares of each material subsidiary, together with all proceeds, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted, and all other cash and noncash proceeds, as security for the performance of the obligations. As of June 30, 2018, there were no borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit.

Covenants 

The Loan and Security Agreement contains financial and other covenants as well as the maintenance of a leverage ratio not to exceed 2.5 to 1.0 and a TTM adjusted EBITDA of not less than $10 million. A violation of any of the covenants could result in a default under the Loan and Security Agreement that would permit the lenders to restrict the Company’s ability to further access the revolving line of credit for loans and letters of credit and require the immediate repayment of any outstanding loans under the Loan and Security Agreement. As of June 30, 2018, the Company is in compliance with all financial covenants.

Significant Business Trends

 

The Company believes that theits ability to grow revenue will be primarily dependent on the following:

 

continuing to expand the Company’sour product offerings both through internal development and sourcing from other vendors;

ongoing investment in the Company’sour global sales and marketing infrastructure;

use of clinical results to support new aesthetic products and applications;

enhanced luminary development and reference selling efforts (to develop a location where Company’sour products can be displayed and used to assist in selling efforts);

customer demand for the Company’sour products;

strengtheningweakening against the U.S. dollar of key international currencies in which we transact (e.g. Australian(Australian Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, Swiss Franc and British Pound);

For a detailed discussion of the significant business trends impacting the Company’sour business, please see the section titled “Results of Operations” below.

 

Factors that May Impact Future Performance

The Company’s industry is impacted by numerous competitive, regulatory and other significant factors. The Company’s industry is highly competitive and the Company’s future performance depends on the Company’s ability to compete successfully. Additionally, the Company’s future performance is dependent upon the ability to continue to expand the Company’s product offerings with innovative technologies, obtain regulatory clearances for the Company’s products, protect the proprietary technology of the products and manufacturing processes, manufacture the products cost-effectively, and successfully market and distribute the products in a profitable manner. If the Company fails to execute on the aforementioned initiatives, the Company’s business would be adversely affected.

On July 30, 2018, the FDA issued a public statement and sent letters to a number of companies in the medical aesthetics industry expressing concerns regarding “vaginal rejuvenation” procedures using energy-based devices. The Company was not named in the announcement, and the Company has not received a letter from the agency, however the Company’s Juliet device is promoted and used by physicians in procedures that are the subject of the FDA’s public statement. The Company is not aware of any adverse events resulting from the use of Juliet, and believes that Juliet’s development and promotion is based on science and clinical evidence. Notwithstanding, the Company experienced a significant slowdown in the sale of Juliet systems in the third and fourth quarters of 2018 and first quarter of 2019. The Company believes this relates to the safety letter, given the timing.

The Company supports any action that helps ensure patient safety going forward. The Company has a robust, multi-functional process that reviews its promotional claims and materials to ensure they are truthful, not misleading, fair and balanced, and supported by sound scientific evidence.

A detailed discussion of these and other factors that could impact the Company’s future performance are provided in (1) Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, (2) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, (3)2017- Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors,” (2) the Company’s reports and registration statements filed and furnished from time to time with the SEC, and (4)(3) other announcements the Company makes from time to time.

Critical accounting policies, significant judgments and use of estimates

 

The Company's management discussion and analysispreparation of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. For the threeCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company’s income tax benefit was $712,000 and $3,331,000, respectively, compared to income tax expense of $59,000 and income tax benefit of $59,000 for the same periodsrelated disclosures in 2017. In the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company calculated the provision for income taxes for interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the "annual effective tax rate" for the full year to ordinary income or loss for the reporting period. The Company’s income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 reflects a projected income tax benefit for U.S. and non-U.S. operations resulting in an annual effective tax rate applied to the year-to-date ordinary loss. The income tax benefit includes excess tax benefits generated by stock deductions exercised or vested in the six months ended June 30, 2018.

For the Company’s income tax provision in the six months ended June 30, 2017, the tax benefit was primarily related to projected U.S. alternative minimum taxes and income taxes from non-U.S. operations. The income tax benefit resulted from applying the annual effective tax rate by the year-to-date ordinary loss. The projected income tax reflected utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. However, the tax effect of such utilization was offset by a change in valuation allowance for the six months ended June 30, 2017 condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordanceconformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statementsGAAP requires us to make estimates, judgments and judgmentsassumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate the Company’s critical accounting policiesThese estimates, judgments and estimates. The Companyassumptions are based the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptionsfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The Company believesperiodically reviews its estimates and make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company’s financial condition or results of operations will be affected.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 using the modified retrospective method, to all leases existing at the date of initial application. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reasonablereported under the accounting standards in effect for the period presented. The adoption of the new standard resulted in the circumstances, the resultsrecording of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values ofadditional net lease assets and lease liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptionsof $10.3 million and conditions. The Company’s significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note$10.4 million, respectively, as of January 1, 2019, based on the present value of the accompanyingremaining minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for existing operating leases. The difference between the additional lease assets and lease liabilities, was recorded as deferred rent. The standard had no material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, statements of changes in equity, and cash flows. Refer to notes 2 and 12 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional accounting policy and in Note 2transition disclosures.

Loan and Security Agreement

 

On May 30, 2018, the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving“Original Revolving Line of Credit”) in the original principal amount of $25,000,000.$25 million. The Original Revolving Line of Credit terminates on May 30, 2021.

The purpose of theOriginal Revolving Line of Credit is to provide working capital and to fund the Company’s general business requirements. The Revolving Line of Credit bears interest at a variable interest rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus a defined LIBOR Rate Margin based on the then-current Leverage Ratio (a ratio of funded debt to the Trailing Twelve Month ("TTM") Adjusted EBITDA).

The Revolving Line of Credit provides for borrowing limits that range from $5,000,000 to a maximum of $25,000,000 during the term of the Revolving Line of Credit. Additionally, the Company agrees to pay a variable unused commitment fee to Wells Fargo equal to (a) 0.25% per annum if the Leverage Ratio is less than 1.00 to 1.00, (b) 0.30% per annum if the Leverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 1.00 to 1.00, but less than 2.00 to 1.00, and (c) 0.35% per annum if the Leverage Ratio is equal to or greater than 2.00 to 1.00.

The Revolving Line of Credit is secured by a pledge of security interest in all the shares of each material subsidiary, together with all proceeds, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted, and all other cash and noncash proceeds, as security for the performance of the Obligations. As of June 30, 2018, there were no borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit.

Covenants 

The Loan and Security Agreement containscontained financial and other covenants as well as the maintenance of a leverage ratio not to exceed 2.5:2.5 to 1.0 and a TTM adjusted EBITDA of not less than $10 million. A violation of any of the covenants could result in a default under the Loan and Security AgreementOriginal Revolving Line of Credit that would permit the lenders to restrict the Company’s ability to further access the revolving line of credit for loans and letters of credit and require the immediate repayment of any outstanding loans under the Loan and Security Agreement.

During the third quarter of 2018, the Company received notice that it was in violation of certain financial covenants in the Original Revolving Line of Credit and entered into discussions with Wells Fargo to amend and revise certain terms of the Original Revolving Line of Credit.

On or about November 2, 2018, the Company entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to the Loan and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo (the “First Amended Revolving Line of Credit”). The First Amended Revolving Line of Credit provided for a principal amount of $15 million, with the ability to request an additional $10 million, and a waiver of any existing defaults under the Original Revolving Line of Credit as long as the Company is in compliance with the terms of the First Amended Revolving Line of Credit.

Table of Contents

On or about March 11, 2019, the Company entered into a Second Amendment and Waiver to the Loan and Security Agreement with Wells Fargo (the “Second Amended Revolving Line of Credit”). The Second Amended Revolving Line of Credit requires the Company to maintain a minimum cash balance of $15 million at Wells Fargo, but removes all other covenants so long as no money is drawn on the line of credit. The Company may draw down on the line of credit at the time it reaches and maintains TTM adjusted EBITDA of not less than $10 million, and a leverage ratio not to exceed 2.5 to 1.0.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

A summary of the key market risks facing the Company is disclosed below. For a detailed discussion, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, filed with the SEC on March 26, 2018.18, 2019.

 

Interest Rate Fluctuationsand Market Risk

 

The Company holds cash equivalents as well as short-term and long-term fixed income securities. The Company’s investment portfolio includes fixed and floating rate securities. Changes in interest rates could impact the Company’s anticipated interest income. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to fluctuations in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, the Company’s future investment income may fall short of expectation due to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities which have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates. The primary objective of the Company’s investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yieldsthe income the Company receives from investments without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we investthe Company maintains its portfolio of cash equivalents and short- and long-term investments in a variety of high quality securities, including U.S. treasuries, U.S. government agencies, corporate debt, instruments of the U.S. Government and its agenciescash deposits, money market funds, commercial paper, non-U.S. government agency securities, and municipal bonds, high grade corporate bonds, commercial paper, CDsbonds. The securities are classified as available-for-sale and money markets, and, by policy, restrict the Company’s exposure to any single typeconsequently are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of investment or issuer by imposing concentration limits. To minimize the exposure due to adverse shifts in interest rates, we maintain investments at aaccumulated other comprehensive loss. The weighted average maturity of generally less than eighteen months.the Company’s portfolio as of March 31, 2019 was approximately 0.2 years. If interest rates rise, the market value of our investments may decline, which could result in a realized loss if the Company is forced to sell an investment before its scheduled maturity. A hypothetical increase in interest rate by one percentage point would have resulted in no impact on the Company’s total investment portfolio.

The uncertain financial markets have resulted in a tightening in the credit markets, a reduced level of liquidity in many financial markets, and extreme volatility in fixed income and credit markets. The credit ratings of the securities we have invested in could further deteriorate and may have an adverse impact on the carrying value of these investments.

 

As at June 30, 2018,of March 31, 2019, the Company had not drawn on the Revolving Line of Credit. Overall interest rate sensitivity is primarily influenced by any amount borrowed on the line of credit and the prevailing interest rate on the line of credit facility. The effective interest rate on the line of credit facility is based on a floating per annum rate equal to the LIBOR rate. The LIBOR rate was 2.09%2.60% as of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and accordingly the Company may incur additional expenses if the Company has an outstanding balance on the line of credit and the LIBOR rate increaseincreases in future periods.

 

Inflation

The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or results of operations. If the Company’s costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, the Company may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. The Company’s inability or failure to do so could harm the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

Foreign Exchange Fluctuations

The Company generates revenue in Japanese Yen, Euros, Australian Dollars, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds and Swiss Francs. Additionally, a portion of the Company’s operating expenses and assets and liabilities are denominated in each of these currencies. Therefore, fluctuations in these currencies against the U.S. dollar could materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations upon translation of the Company’s revenue denominated in these currencies, as well as the remeasurement of the Company’s international subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation as of June 30, 2018March 31, 2019 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Interim Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures.” Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act defines “disclosure controls and procedures” as controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019.

 

Attached as exhibits to this Quarterly Report are certifications of the Company’s CEO and CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. This Controls and Procedures section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications, and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

ThereThe Company implemented certain controls related to the adoption of FASB ASC 842, effective January 1, 2019. These controls were designed and implemented to ensure the completeness and accuracy over financial reporting. With the exception of the controls implemented for FASB ASC 842, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurredduring the Company’s most recent fiscal quarterthree months ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Accordingly, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the Company’s disclosure control system are met.
