Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. (a, a Colorado corporation)corporation was incorporated on February 15, 1954. Scott’s Liquid Gold-Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) develop, manufacture, market and sell quality household and skin and hairpersonal care products. We are also a distributor in the United States of Montagne Jeunesse skin sachets and Batiste Dry Shampoopersonal care products manufactured by two other companies.another company. Our business is comprised of two segments,2 segments: household products and skin and hairpersonal care products.

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income,Operations, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in this Report have been prepared by the Company. In our opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 and results of operations and cash flows for all periods have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2020. The results of operations for the period ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United StatesGAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in our financial statements of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the realization of deferred tax assets, reserves for slow moving and obsolete inventory, customer returns and allowances, intangible asset useful lives and amortization method, fair value of assets acquired in business combinations, operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, and stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from our estimates.

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents.

On March 16, 2011, we entered into a financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) for the purpose of lowering the cost of borrowing associated with the financing of our accounts receivable. Pursuant to this agreement, we were able to sell accounts receivable from Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (“Wal-Mart”) at a discount to Wells Fargo. On January 29, 2016 we terminated our agreement with Wells Fargo due to Wal-Mart changing its accounts payable policy.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017(f)Inventories Valuation and 2016, we sold approximately $0 and $306,800, respectively, of our relevant accounts receivable to Wells Fargo for approximately $0 and $305,200, respectively. The difference between the invoiced amount of the receivable and the cash that we received from Wells Fargo is a cost to us. This cost is in lieu of any cash discount our customer would have been allowed and, thus, is treated in a manner consistent with standard trade discounts granted to our customers.Reserves

The reporting of the sale of accounts receivable to Wells Fargo is treated as a sale rather than as a secured borrowing. As a result, affected accounts receivable are relieved from the Company’s financial statements upon receipt of the cash proceeds.

Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. We record aestimate an inventory reserve, which is generally not material to our financial statements, for slow moving and obsolete products and raw materials. We estimate this reservematerials based upon, among other things, an assessment of historical and anticipated sales.sales of our products. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted.

Inventories were comprised of the following at:

Our remaining raw materials balance is to be sold to contract manufacturing partners based on production demand.

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to 20 years. Production equipment and production support equipment are estimated to have useful lives of 15 to 20 years and three to 10 years, respectively. Office furniture and office machines are estimated to have useful lives of 10 to 20 years and three to five years, respectively. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Improvements that extend the useful lives of the asset or provide improved efficiency are capitalized.

Lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement of an arrangement where it is determined at inception that a lease exists. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are initially recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term calculated using our incremental borrowing rate generally applicable to the location of the lease asset, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised.

Certain nonlease components, such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor, are included in the valuation of the lease. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, which are not material to our financial statements, are not recorded on the balance sheet, and the expense for these short-term leases and for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease agreements with lease and nonlease components are combined as a single lease component.

The Company evaluates reimbursable leasehold improvements based on whether improvements are indicative of a lessor or lessee asset. The Company concluded that all of its reimbursable leasehold improvement payments have qualified as lessor assets and, as such, have accounted for leasehold improvement payments as prepaid rent included in prepaid expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade names, formulas, and batching processes, internal-use software and a non-compete agreement.  The fair value of the intangible assets is amortized over their estimated useful lives and range from a period of five to 15 years and are reviewed for impairment when changes in market circumstances occur and written down to fair value if impaired.

25 years. Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired inacquired.

Internal-use software costs recognized as an intangible asset relates to capitalizable costs of computer software obtained for internal-use as defined by the Acquisition discussed in Notes 5Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40-30-1. All other internal-use software costs are expensed as incurred by the Company. Amortization is recorded straight-line over the estimated useful life of the software once the software is ready for its intended use. As of June 30, 2021, our internal-use software was not ready for its intended use. The estimated useful life for internal-use software will be determined and 6. periodically reassessed based on considerations for obsolescence, technology, competition, and other economic factors.

Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized but are subject to annual impairment tests, and in certain circumstances these assets are written down to fair value if impaired.

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We maintain our cash balances in the form of bank demand deposits with financial institutions that we believe are creditworthy. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017,Historically, we have maintained balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is generally not material to our financial statements, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. We have no0 significant financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of accounting loss, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign currency hedging arrangements.

The recorded amounts for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and current maturities of long-term debt approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The recorded

We apply the acquisition method of accounting for a business combination. In general, this methodology requires us to record assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. Any amount of long-term debt approximatesthe purchase price paid that is in excess of the estimated fair value andof the net assets acquired is estimated primarilyrecorded as goodwill. For certain acquisitions, we also record a liability for contingent consideration based on current market rates for debt with similar termsestimated future business performance. We monitor our assumptions surrounding these estimated future cash flows and, remaining maturities. At September 30, 2017, we had long-term debt of $1,400,000 and no outstanding balance on our line-of-credit. At December 31, 2016 we had long-term debt of $2,000,000if there is a significant change, would record an adjustment to the contingent consideration liability and a $750,000 outstanding balance oncorresponding adjustment to either income or expense. We determine fair value using widely accepted valuation techniques, primarily discounted cash flow and market multiple analyses. These types of analyses require us to make assumptions and estimates regarding industry and economic factors, the profitability of future business strategies, discount rates and cash flow.

If actual results are not consistent with our line-of-credit.assumptions and estimates, or our assumptions and estimates change due to new information, we may be exposed to an impairment charge in the future. If the contingent consideration paid for any of our acquisitions differs from the amount initially recorded, we would record either income or expense associated with the change in liability.

Income taxes reflect the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statementsCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements and consist of taxes currently payable plus deferred income taxes related to certain income and expenses recognized in different periods for financial and income tax reporting purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future income tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases. A valuation allowance is providedestablished when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the period in which related temporary differences become deductible. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Taxes are reported based on tax positions that meet a more-likely-than-not standard and that are measured at the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Differences between financial and tax reporting which do not meet this threshold are required to be recorded as unrecognized tax benefits or expense. We classify penalty and interest expense related to income tax liabilities as an income tax expense. There are no0 significant interest and penalties recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income or accrued on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The effective tax rate for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 and 20162020 was 35.6%26.4% and 40.8%(47.4%) respectively, which differscan differ from the statutory income tax rate due to permanent bookbook-to-tax differences. The Company continues to evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax asset, if the Company is not able to return to profitability or meet future forecasted goals, the Company may realize a valuation allowance in future periods.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into U.S. federal law the CARES Act, which is aimed at providing emergency assistance and health care for individuals, families, and businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and generally supporting the U.S. economy. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax differences.depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. In particular, under the CARES Act, NOLs arising in 2018, 2019, and 2020 taxable years may be carried back to each of the preceding five years to generate a refund. The tax impact of the carryback of 2019 losses was recorded in the first quarter income tax provision. We are analyzing the different aspects of the CARES Act to determine whether any other provisions may impact us.

Our revenue recognition policy is significant because the amount and timing of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. Certain criteria are required to be met in order to recognize revenue. If these criteria are not met, then the associated revenue is deferred until it is met. In our case,When consideration is received in advance of the criteria generallydelivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Our revenue contracts are met when: (i) we have an arrangementidentified when purchase orders are received and accepted from customers and represent a single performance obligation to sell our products to a product; (ii) we have deliveredcustomer.

Net sales reflect the product in accordance with that arrangement; (iii) thetransaction prices for contracts, which include products shipped at selling list prices reduced by variable consideration. Variable consideration includes estimates for expected customer allowances, promotional programs for consumers, and sales pricereturns. Based on our customer-by-customer history, our variable consideration estimates are generally accurate and subsequent adjustments are generally immaterial.

Variable consideration is primarily comprised of the product is determinable; and (iv) we believe that we will be paid for the sale.

We establishcustomer allowances. Customer allowances primarily include reserves for customer returnstrade promotions to support price features, displays, slotting fees, and other merchandising of our products to our customers. Promotional programs for consumers primarily include coupons, rebates, and certain other promotional programs, and do not represent a significant portion of variable consideration. The costs of both customer allowances and promotional programs for consumers are estimated using either the expected value or most likely amount approach, depending on the nature of the allowance, using all reasonably available information, including our historical experience and current expectations. Customer allowances and promotional programs for consumers are reflected in the transaction price when sales are recorded. We may adjust our estimates based on actual results and consideration of other factors that cause allowances. We estimate these reservesIn the event that actual results differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted.

Sales returns are generally not material to our financial statements, and do not comprise a significant portion of variable consideration. Estimates for sales returns are based upon,on, among other things, an assessment of historical trends, information from customers, and anticipated returns related to current sales activity. These reservesestimates are established in the period of sale and reduce our revenue in that period.

Our reserve for customer allowances includes primarily reserves for trade promotions to support price features, displays, slotting fees and other merchandising of our products to our customers. The actual level of returns and customer allowances is influenced by several factors, includingSales are recorded at the promotional efforts of our customers, changes in mix of our customers, changes in the mixtime that control of the products is transferred to customers. In evaluating the timing of the transfer of control of products to customers, we sellconsider several indicators, including significant risks and rewards of products, our right to payment, and the maturitylegal title of the product. We may change our estimates basedproducts. Based on actual results and consideration of other factors that cause returns and allowances. In the event that actual results differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted.

We also establish reserves for coupons, rebates and certain other promotional programs for consumers. We estimate these reserves based upon, among other things, an assessment of historical trends and currentcontrol indicators, sales activity. These reserves are recorded as a reduction of revenue at the later of the date at which the revenue isgenerally recognized or the date at which the sale incentive is offered.when products are delivered to customers.

We have also established an allowance for doubtful accounts. We estimate this allowance based upon, among other things, an assessment of the credit risk of specific customers and historical trends. We believe our allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb any losses which may arise. In the event that actual losses differ from our estimates, the results of future periods may be impacted.

At September 30, 2017Customer allowances for trade promotions and December 31, 2016 approximately $831,400allowance for doubtful accounts are included in net accounts receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and $1,184,700, respectively, had been reservedwere as a reduction of accounts receivable. Trade promotions to our customers and incentives such as coupons to our consumers are deducted from gross sales and totaled $1,854,100 and $1,584,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and totaled $522,300 and $616,300 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.follows at:

AdvertisingWe expense advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company accountsWe account for share based payments by recognizing compensation expense based upon the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The Company determinesWe determine the estimated grant-date fair value of stock options with only service conditions using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. In order to calculate the fair value of the options, certain assumptions are made regarding the

components of the model, including the estimated fair value of underlying common stock, risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected dividend yield and expected option life. Changes to the assumptions could cause significant adjustments to the valuation. The Company recognizesWe recognize compensation costs ratably over the vesting period using the straight-line method.method, which approximates the service period.

The Company issued restricted stock unit ("RSUs") awards with restrictions that lapse upon the passage of time (service vesting) and satisfaction of market conditions targeted to our Company’s stock price. For those restricted stock unit awards with only service vesting, the Company recognizes compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the service period. For awards with both market and service conditions, the Company starts recognizing compensation cost over the requisite service period, with the effect of the market conditions reflected in the calculation of the award's fair value at grant date. The Company values awards with only service vesting requirements based on the grant date share price. The Company values awards with market and service conditions using a Monte Carlo simulation. The Company determines the requisite service period for awards with both market and service conditions based on the longer of the explicit service period and the derived service period. Stock awards that contain market vesting conditions are included in the computations of diluted EPS reflecting the average number of shares that would be issued based on the highest 30-day average market price during the reporting periods, if their effect is dilutive. If the condition is based on an average of market prices over some period of time, the corresponding average for the period is used.

Cost of sales includes costs associated with manufacturing and distribution including labor, materials, freight-in, purchasing and receiving, quality control, internal transfer costs, repairs, maintenance, and other indirect costs, as well as warehousing and distribution costs. We classify shipping and handling costs comprised primarily of freight-out as selling expenses. Other selling expenses consist primarily of wages and benefitscosts for sales and sales support personnel, travel, brokerage commissions, and promotional costs. Freight-out costs as well as certain other indirect costs. Shippingincluded in selling expenses totaled $969 and handling costs totaled $1,864,400 and $1,149,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and totaled $611,200 and $439,000$619 for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172021 and 2016,2020, respectively, and totaled $2,026 and $1,306 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of wages and benefits associated with management and administrative support departments, business insurance costs, professional fees, office facility related expenses, and other general support costs.

On April 29, 2021, the Company announced that Mark E. Goldstein, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a member of the Board of Directors, retired effective as of April 26, 2021. In connection with Mr. Goldstein’s retirement, the Company and Mr. Goldstein entered into a Separation Agreement, Waiver and Release (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will pay Mr. Goldstein $720 in severance payments (equal to 18 months base salary) over a period of 30 months and reimbursement for the costs of continuing health benefits for a period of 18 months. Severance costs of $805 were recognized in the second quarter of 2021 and are included in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Accrued severance costs are included in accrued expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2021.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). This guidance, as amended by subsequent ASUs on the topic, outlines a comprehensive model for determining revenue recognition for contracts with customers, which replaces numerous industry-specific requirements and converges areas under this topic with those of the International Financial Reporting Standards. This guidance implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards. The new guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows from contracts and customers. Other major provisions include the capitalization and amortization of certain contract costs, ensuring the time value of money is considered in the transaction price, and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. Entities can transition to the new guidance either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of the adoption. We have substantially completed our assessment of the new guidance and continue to make progress on its implementation. We plan to adopt the new guidance on January 1, 2018, on a “full retrospective” basis. Currently, we believe that the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements and we are currently assessing the need for expanded financial disclosures, if any.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”), which provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. Application of ASU 2016-15, which should be applied prospectively, is required for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2016-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business” (“ASU 2017-01”), which provides a more defined framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. ASU 2017-01 also provides greater consistency in applying the guidance, making the definition of a business more operable. ASU 2017-01 is effective for public companies for annual periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. ASU 2017-01 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation–Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting” (“ASU 2017-09”), clarifying when a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as a modification. The new guidance requires modification accounting if the fair value, vesting condition or the classification of the award is not the same immediately before and after a change to the terms and conditions of the award. ASU 2017-09 is effective for public companies for annual periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2017-09 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In February 2016,2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, 2019-12, “LeasesIncome Taxes (Topic 842)740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2016-02”2019-12”), which requires a lessee. The new guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to record a right-of-use assetthe general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and a lease liability onsimplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. For public companies, the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognitionamendments in the income statement.this ASU 2016-02 isare effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. We anticipate that most of our operating leases will result in recognition of additional assets and the corresponding liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We have not determined the amount of these transactions or the final impact to our earnings as the actual impact will depend on the Company’s lease portfolio at the time of adoption.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments —Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”). Among other things, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. Effective for SEC filers for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 (i.e., January 1, 2020, for calendar year entities). ASU 2016-13 is not expected2021, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects to have a materialearly adopt the amendments in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. We continue to assess the impact on our financial statements.of this guidance.

In January 2017,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “SimplifyingNo. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the TestEffects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”). The purpose of ASU 2020-04 is to provide optional expedients and exceptions for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifiesapplying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met.

Basic earnings per share include no dilution and are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential of securities that could share in our earnings.

A reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (in thousands) is as follows:follows. The dilutive effect of stock options and RSUs are excluded for periods in which the Company has a net loss because the impact is anti-dilutive.
