Table of Contents

Founded in 1932, Ethan Allen Interiors Inc. ("Interiors") is a Delaware corporation incorporated on May 25, 1989. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ethan Allen Interiors Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary Ethan Allen Global, Inc. ("Global"), and Global’s subsidiaries (collectively "we", "us", "our", "Ethan Allen",“we,” “us,” “our,” “Ethan Allen,” or the "Company"“Company”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformityaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenuesnet sales and expenses during the reporting period. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making those estimates, actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas in which significant estimates have been made include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, inventory obsolescence, tax valuation allowances, useful lives for property, plant and equipment, and definite-lived intangible assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment analyses, business insurance retention reserves, tax valuation allowances, the evaluation of uncertain tax positions and other loss reserves.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumedamounts in business combinations.prior periods in order to conform to the current period’s presentation.

In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for fair presentation, have been included in the consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our fiscal 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018.(the “2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K”).

The Company reviews its expected annual effective income tax rates and makes changes on a quarterly basis as necessary based on certain factors such as changes in forecasted annual operating income; changes to actual or forecasted permanent book to tax differences; impacts from future tax audits with state, federal or foreign tax authorities; impacts from tax law changes; or change in judgment as to the realizability of deferred tax assets. The Company identifies items which are non-recurring in nature and treats these as discrete events. The tax effect of such items is recorded in the quarter in which the related events occur. Due to the volatility of these factors, the Company's consolidated effective income tax rate can change significantly quarter over quarter.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, the Company and its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to periodic examination in such domestic and foreign jurisdictions by tax authorities. The Company and certain subsidiaries are currently under audit in the U.S. from 2015 through 2016. While the amount of uncertain tax impacts with respect to the entities and years under audit may change within the next twelve months, it is not anticipated that any of the changes will be significant. It is reasonably possible that some of these audits may be completed during the next twelve months and that various issues relating to uncertain tax impacts will be resolved within the next twelve months as exams are completed or as statutes expire and will impact the effective tax rate.

The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate was 24.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 35.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The current period’s effective tax rate primarily includes tax expense on the taxable year’s net income, tax expense on the cancelation of stock options, and tax and interest expense on uncertain tax positions. The prior period’s effective tax rate primarily includes tax expense on the taxable year’s net income, and tax and interest expense on uncertain tax positions partially offset by the tax benefit on the vesting of restricted stock units.

On December 22, 2017 H.R. 1, originally known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (the “Tax Act”) was enacted. Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Act lowers the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate (“Federal Tax Rate”) from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018, introduces a limitation on the deduction of certain interest expenses, introduces a deduction for certain business capital expenditures and introduces a system of taxing foreign-sourced income from multinational corporations. The Company computed its income tax expense for the June 30, 2018 fiscal year using a blended Federal Tax Rate of 28%. The 21% Federal Tax Rate will apply to fiscal years ending June 30, 2019 and each year thereafter. Following is a reconciliation of income tax expense (benefit) computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate to income before taxes to actual tax expense (benefit):

Prior to June 30, 2018 we held restricted cash and investments in lieu of providing letters of credit for the benefit of the provider of our worker’s compensation and other insurance liabilities. By June 30, 2018, this obligation had been reduced to $5.9 million, which was then exchanged for a letter of credit for the benefit of this provider, and the restrictions were removed. The following table presents the components of total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as set forth in our consolidated statements of cash flows. See also Note 12.

Inventories at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Total debt obligations at September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 consist of the following (in thousands):

The Company entered into a five year, $150 million senior secured revolving credit and term loan facility on October 21, 2014, as amended (the “Facility”). The Company intends to use the Facility for working capital and general corporate purposes, including dividend payments and share repurchases. The Facility, which expires on October 21, 2019, provided a single-draw term loan of $35 million and a revolving credit line of up to $115 million, subject to borrowing base availability. We incurred financing costs of $1.5 million under the Facility, which are being amortized by the interest method, over the remaining life of the Facility.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

At the Company’s option, revolving loans under the Facility bear interest, based on the average availability, at an annual rate of either (a) the London Interbank Offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.5% to 1.75%, or (b) the higher of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, or (iii) LIBOR plus 1.0% plus in each case 0.5% to 0.75%.

The Company pays a commitment fee of 0.15% to 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the Facility, and fees on issued letters of credit at an annual rate of 1.5% to 1.75% based on the average availability. Certain payments are restricted if the availability under the revolving credit line falls below 20% of the total revolving credit line, and the Company is subject to pro forma compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio if applicable.

In fiscal 2018 the Company repaid the remaining balance of $13.8 million on the term loan with excess operating cash.

The Facility is secured by all property owned, leased or operated by the Company in the United States and includes certain real property owned by the Company and contains customary covenants which may limit the Company’s ability to incur debt; engage in mergers and consolidations; make restricted payments (including dividends and share repurchases); sell certain assets; and make investments.

The Facility includes a covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1 to 1.0 at all times unless the outstanding term loan is less than $17.5 million and the fixed charge coverage ratio equals or exceeds 1.25 to 1.0, in which case the fixed charge coverage ratio ceases to apply and thereafter is only triggered if average monthly availability is less than 15% of the amount of the revolving credit line. The Company has met the exemption conditions and is currently exempt from the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant.

At both September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, there was $6.2 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under the Facility. Total availability under the Facility was $108.8 million at both September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018.

At both September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, we were in compliance with all the covenants under the Facility.

The following table summarizes, as of September 30, 2018, the timing of cash payments related to our outstanding long-term debt obligations for the remaining nine months of fiscal 2019, and each of the five fiscal years subsequent to June 30, 2019, and thereafter (in thousands).

We are routinely party to various legal proceedings, including investigations or as a defendant in litigation, in the ordinary course of business. We are also subject to various federal, state and local environmental protection laws and regulations and are involved, from time to time, in investigations and proceedings regarding environmental matters. Such investigations and proceedings typically concern air emissions, water discharges, and/or management of solid and hazardous wastes. Under these laws, we and/or our subsidiaries are, or may be, required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the disposal or release of certain hazardous materials.

Regulations issued under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 required the industry to reformulate certain furniture finishes or institute process changes to reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds. Compliance with many of these requirements has been facilitated through the introduction of high solids coating technology and alternative formulations. In addition, we have instituted a variety of technical and procedural controls, including reformulation of finishing materials to reduce toxicity, implementation of high velocity low pressure spray systems, development of storm water protection plans and controls, and further development of related inspection/audit teams, all of which have served to reduce emissions per unit of production. We remain committed to implementing new waste minimization programs and/or enhancing existing programs with the objective of (i) reducing the total volume of waste, (ii) limiting the liability associated with waste disposal, and (iii) continuously improving environmental and job safety programs on the factory floor which serve to minimize emissions and safety risks for employees. To reduce the use of hazardous materials in the manufacturing process, we will continue to evaluate the most appropriate, cost-effective control technologies for finishing operations and production methods. We believe that our facilities are in material compliance with all such applicable laws and regulations. Our currently anticipated capital expenditures for environmental control facility matters are not material.

On a quarterly basis, we review our litigation activities and determine if an unfavorable outcome to us is considered “remote”, “reasonably possible” or “probable” as defined by U.S. GAAP. Where we determine an unfavorable outcome is probable and is reasonably estimable, we accrue for potential litigation losses. The liability we may ultimately incur with respect to such litigation matters, in the event of a negative outcome, may be in excess of amounts currently accrued, if any; however, we do not expect that the reasonably possible outcome of these litigation matters would, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Where we determine an unfavorable outcome is not probable or reasonably estimable, we do not accrue for any potential litigation loss.

Although the outcome of the various claims and proceedings against us cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the likelihood is remote that any existing claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

All options are issued at the closing stock price on each grant date, and have a contractual term of 10 years. A summary of stock option activity occurring during the three months ended September 30, 2018 is presented below:

A summary of non-vested stock unit award activity occurring during the three months ended September 30, 2018 is presented below.

At September 30, 2018, there were 1,428,669 shares of common stock available for future issuance pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan.

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated using the following weighted average share data (in thousands):

As of September 30, 2018 and 2017, stock options to purchase 279 and 338 common shares, respectively, were excluded from the respective diluted earnings per share calculations because their impact was anti-dilutive.

Accumulated other comprehensive income consists of foreign currency translation adjustments which are the result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to our operations in Canada, Belgium, Honduras, and Mexico, and exclude income taxes given that the earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries are deemed to be reinvested for an indefinite time. The following table sets forth the activity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the fiscal year-to-date period ended September 30, 2018 (in thousands).

Our wholesale and retail operating segments represent strategic business areas of our vertically integrated enterprise that operate separately and provide their own distinctive services. This vertical structure enables us to offer our complete line of home furnishings and accents more effectively while controlling quality and cost. We evaluate performance of the respective segments based upon revenues and operating income. Inter-segment transactions result, primarily, from the wholesale sale of inventory to the retail segment, including the related profit margin.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company operated 147 design centers (our retail segment) and our independent retailers operated 153 design centers. Our wholesale segment net sales include sales to our retail segment, which are eliminated in consolidation, sales to our independent retailers and unaffiliated third parties. Our retail segment net sales accounted for 77% of our consolidated net sales in the three months ended September 30, 2018. Our wholesale segment net sales accounted for 23%.

In May 2014,As of March 31, 2019, we implemented all applicable new accounting standards and updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that were in effect. There were no new standards or updates adopted during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 that had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards or Updates Recently Adopted

Revenue Recognition - In May 2014, the FASB issued accounting standard ASUstandards update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606)606 (“ASC 606”)), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The new standard supersedes virtually all existing authoritative accounting guidance on revenue recognition and requires additional disclosures and greater use of estimates and judgments. We adopted the new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. We reviewed substantially all of our contracts and other revenue streams and determined that while the application of the new standard did not have a material change in the amount of or timing for recognizing revenue, it did impact our financial statement disclosures related to revenuenet sales and related accounts. See Note 134 for informationfurther details on these new disclosures.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Restricted Cash - In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash.Cash  It, which is intended to reduce diversity in the presentation of restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the cash flow statement.  The statement requires that restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included as components of total cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows. The Company had not previously included restricted cash as a component of cash and cash equivalents as presented on theits consolidated statement of cash flows. TheWe adopted the new guidance was adopted bystandard in the Company effective July 1, 2018first quarter of fiscal 2019, under the retrospective adoption method, and prior year restricted cash has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. See also Note 4.5 for further details.

Share-Based Payments - In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which amended the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The guidance focused on changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards that would require the application of modification accounting and specifies that an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. We adopted ASU 2017-09 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this standard had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Recent Accounting Standards or Updates Not Yet Effective

Leases - In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), an update related to accounting for leases. The standard introduces a lessee model that will require lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with terms of more than twelve months. Lessors will remain largely unchanged from current GAAP. In addition, ASU 2016-02 will require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 and expects to apply the modified retrospective approach, which allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment at the beginning of the period of adoption and does not require application of the guidance to comparative periods. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standards update, which involves gathering lease data, reviewing our lease portfolio, implementing a third-party lease accounting software and completing an impact assessment with respect to the adoption of the provisions of the new standard. We currently expect the adoption to have a material impact to our consolidated balance sheet in order to recognize the right of use assets and related liabilities, including enhanced disclosures. However, we do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income or cash flows.

Goodwill Impairment Test - In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes the requirement for companies to compare the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount as part of step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This accounting standards update will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and we do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Implementation Costs in a Cloud Computing Arrangement - In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Cloud Computing Arrangements for Service Contracts, an update related to a client’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs in a cloud computing service contract with the guidance for capitalizing implementation costs to develop or obtain internal-use software. Capitalized implementation costs will be expensed over the term of the arrangement. This accounting standards update will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standards update, but do not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

No other new accounting pronouncements issued or effective as of March 31, 2019 have had or are expected to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We implemented ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Accounting Standards Codification TopicASC 606 “ASC 606”), in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the cumulative effect approach, which required us to apply the new guidance retrospectively to revenue transactions completed on or after July 1, 2018. Adopting this new standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements, but did result in enhanced presentation and disclosures.

Our reported revenue consists(net sales) consist substantially of product sales. We report product sales net of discounts and recognize them at the point in time when control transfers to the customer. For sales to our customers in our wholesale segment, control typically transfers when the product is shipped. For sales in our retail segment, control generally transfers upon delivery to the customer.

Estimated refunds for returns and allowances are recorded using our historical return patterns. Under the new standard, we record estimated refunds for sales returns on a gross basis rather than on a net basis and have recorded an asset for product we expect to receive back from customers in “PrepaidPrepaid expenses and other current assets”,assets and a corresponding refund liability in ”accruedAccrued expenses and other current liabilities”liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.our consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, these amounts were not material.immaterial.

In many cases we receive deposits from customers before we have transferred control of our product to our customers, resulting in contract liabilities. These contract liabilities (“Customer Deposits”) are reported as withina current liabilitiesliability in Customer Deposits on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.consolidated balance sheets. At the beginning of fiscal 2019,June 30, 2018 we had customer deposits of $61.2 million, of Customer Deposits. During the quarter ended September 30, 2018,which we recognized revenuenet sales of $46.7$1.4 million related to ourand $59.3 million respectively, during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019. Customer Deposits.deposits totaled $62.4 million at March 31, 2019.

ETHAN ALLEN INTERIORS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Upon adoption of ASC 606, we have elected the following accounting policies and practical expedients:

We recognize shipping and handling expense as fulfillment activities (rather than as a promised good or service) when the activities are performed even if those activities are performed after the control of the good has been transferred. Accordingly, we record the expenses for shipping and handling activities at the same time we recognize revenue.

-

We recognize shipping and handling expense as fulfillment activities (rather than as a promised good or service) when the activities are performed even if those activities are performed after the control of the good has been transferred. Accordingly, we record the expenses for shipping and handling activities at the same time we recognize net sales.

We do not adjust revenue

-

We do not adjust net sales for the effects of financing components if the contract has a duration of one year or less, as we believe that we will receive payment from the customer within one year of when we transfer control of the related goods.

The following table disaggregates our revenuenet sales by product category by segment for the quarter September 30, 2018:three months ended March 31, 2019:

Prior to June 30, 2018 we held restricted cash and investments in lieu of providing letters of credit for the benefit of the provider of our worker’s compensation and other insurance liabilities. By June 30, 2018, this obligation had been reduced to $5.9 million, which was then exchanged for a letter of credit for the benefit of this provider, and the restricted cash and investments balance was reduced to zero.

The following table presents the components of total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as set forth in our consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands).

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) and net realizable value. Cost is determined based solely on those charges incurred in the acquisition and production of the related inventory (i.e. material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs).

Inventories at March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

The Company reviews its expected annual effective income tax rates and makes changes on a quarterly basis as necessary based on certain factors such as changes in forecasted annual pre-tax income; changes to actual or forecasted permanent book to tax differences; impacts from future tax audits with state, federal or foreign tax authorities; impacts from tax law changes; or changes in judgment as to the realizability of deferred tax assets. The Company identifies items which are non-recurring in nature and treats these as discrete events. The tax effect of such items is recorded in the quarter in which the related events occur. Due to the volatility of these factors, the Company's consolidated effective income tax rate can change significantly quarter over quarter.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, the Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to periodic examination in such domestic and foreign jurisdictions by tax authorities. The Company and certain subsidiaries are currently under audit in the U.S. for fiscal 2016. While the amount of uncertain tax impacts with respect to the entities and years under audit may change within the next twelve months, it is not anticipated that any of the changes will be significant. It is reasonably possible that some of these audits may be completed during the next twelve months and that various issues relating to uncertain tax positions will be resolved within the next twelve months as exams are completed or as statutes expire and will impact the effective tax rate.

The Company is subject to a U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019 and thereafter, and a blended federal tax rate of 28% for fiscal 2018, due to changes made to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate was 24.8% and 25.0% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 and 31.2% and 24.4% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. The current period’s effective tax rate primarily includes a provision for income tax on the taxable year’s income, including federal, state and local taxes, tax expense on the establishment and maintenance of a valuation allowance on Canadian deferred tax assets, and tax and interest expense on uncertain tax positions, partially offset by the reversal of various uncertain tax positions. The prior period’s effective tax rate primarily includes a provision for income tax on the taxable year’s net income, remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), which was enacted in December 2017, and tax and interest expense on uncertain tax positions, partially offset by the reversal of various uncertain tax positions.

Total debt obligations at March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018 consist of the following (in thousands):

Upholstery furniture includes fabric-covered items suchRevolving Credit Facility

On December 21, 2018, the Company and most of its domestic subsidiaries (the “Loan Parties”) entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Facility”). The Facility amends and restates the existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as sleepers, reclinersof October 21, 2014, as amended. The Facility provides a revolving credit line of up to $165 million, subject to borrowing base availability, and extends the maturity of the Facility to December 21, 2023. We incurred financing costs of $0.6 million under the Facility, which are being amortized over the remaining life of the Facility using the effective interest method.

At the Company’s option, revolving loans under the Facility bear interest, based on the average availability, at an annual rate of either (a) the London Interbank Offered rate (“LIBOR”) plus 1.5% to 2.0%, or (b) the higher of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, or (iii) LIBOR plus 1.0% plus in each case 0.5% to 1.0%.

The availability of credit at any given time under the Facility will be constrained by the terms and conditions of the Facility, including the amount of collateral available, a borrowing base formula based upon numerous factors including the value of eligible inventory and eligible accounts receivable, and other motion furniture, chairs, ottomans, custom pillows, sofas, loveseats, cut fabricsrestrictions contained in the Facility. All obligations under the Facility are secured by assets of the Loan Parties including inventory, receivables and leather.certain types of intellectual property.

Case goods furniture includes items such as beds, dressers, armoires, tables, chairs, buffets, entertainment units, home office furniture, and wooden accents.Borrowings under the Facility

Accents includes items such as window treatmentsTo fund a portion of the special cash dividend paid to shareholders in January 2019, we borrowed $16.0 million from the Facility having a maturity date of December 21, 2023. By March 31, 2019, we had repaid $8.0 million of the total borrowed from cash generated from operating activities. The debt bears interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR rate of 2.5% plus a spread using a debt leverage pricing grid currently at 1.5%. Interest on the loan outstanding is payable monthly in arrears and drapery hardware, wall décor, florals, lighting, clocks, mattresses, bedspreads, throws, pillows, decorative accents, area rugs, wall coverings and home and garden furnishings.on the maturity date. 

The outstanding borrowing amount of $8.0 million is reported as Long-term debt within the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2019. For the nine months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded interest expense of $0.1 million on our outstanding debt amount. The principal balance is payable in full on the maturity date.

Debt Obligations

The following table summarizes, as of March 31, 2019, the timing of cash payments related to our outstanding long-term debt obligations for the remaining three months of fiscal 2019, and each of the five fiscal years subsequent to June 30, 2019, and thereafter (in thousands).
