Independent Auditors’ Report

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
OCO Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries:

 

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of OCO Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

 

Auditors’ Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

 
 

 

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of OCO Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

 

(a)

Organization and Nature of Operations

 

OCO Holdings, Inc. (the Company) is a Delaware corporation established to acquire and hold an investment in its wholly owned subsidiary, Olson + Co., Inc. (Olson).

 

Olson is a full-service agency providing advertising, interactive, public relations, brand design, media services, strategy, and production for some of the world’s most respected brands, with offices in Minnesota, Illinois, Texas, California, New York, and Ontario, Canada.

 

Four private equity entities affiliated with KRG Capital Management LP (KRG) own 69% of the preferred stock and 72% of the common stock of the Company. The remainder of the Company is owned by management, directors, and certain other investors. This organizational structure resulted from the original issuance of the Company’s stock to KRG, management, and certain other investors and the acquisition of Bonfire Partners, LLC (Denali), Olson PR, LLC (Dig), MyThum Interactive, Inc. (MyThum), and PulsePoint Group, LLC (note 2). These acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

 

 

(b)

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Olson. Upon consolidation, all intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

 

 

(c)

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Substantially all cash is deposited in three financial institutions. At times, amounts on deposit may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit.

 

Olson performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally grants credit on an unsecured basis. On a combined basis, two clients accounted for 21% and 31% of Olson’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. One client accounted for 18% of Olson’s accounts receivable as of December 31, 2012.

 

 

(d)

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The following amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements are subject to management estimates: allowance for uncollectible receivables, work in progress, revenue in excess of billings, deferred revenue, and valuation of intangible and deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

 

 

 

(e)

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are recognized as services are performed for hourly projects and on the proportional performance method for projects with fixed fees, measured by the percentage of project costs incurred to date to estimated total costs for each project. Out-of-pocket expenses are recorded on a gross basis to cost of sales. This method is used because management considers expended costs to be the best available measure of progress on these projects. Revenues on retainer projects are recognized ratably over the life of the contract, generally 3–12 months.

 

Olson acts as an agent and arranges for media advertising for its clients. As an agent, Olson is responsible for invoicing the client for media advertising, collecting these sums, and remitting payment to the client’s vendors. Revenue from these transactions is recognized in the month the advertising occurs. Under these arrangements, Olson reports revenue and cost of sales on a net basis.

 

 

(f)

Foreign Currency Translation

 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the prevailing rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Nonmonetary units are translated at historic rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Unrealized exchange gains and losses from translation are included in other comprehensive income. Unrealized and realized exchange gains and losses from translation of an intercompany note that Olson maintains with its Canadian subsidiary are included in earnings.

 

 

(g)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash in excess of daily requirements is invested in marketable securities with maturities of three months or less. Such investments are deemed to be cash equivalents for purposes of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

 

 

(h)

Accounts Receivable

 

Olson provides an allowance for bad debts based on management judgment considering historical information. Services are sold on an unsecured basis. Payment is required 0–30 days after receipt of the invoice. Accounts past due for more than 60 days are individually analyzed for collectibility. When all collection efforts have been exhausted, the account is written off against the related allowance. In addition, an allowance is provided for other accounts when a significant pattern of uncollectibility has occurred. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the allowance was $216,024 and $200,184, respectively.

 

 

(i)

Work in Progress

 

Work in progress represents fees and costs for services incurred that have not yet been billed to the respective clients. These amounts are recorded at the amount that will ultimately be billed to the clients.

 

 

(j)

Property and Equipment

 

Property, equipment, and leasehold improvements are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is based on the shorter of the estimated useful lives or lease term of property, equipment, and leasehold improvements. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over 3–15 years. Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $3,808,130 and $3,267,391, respectively.

Major additions and betterments are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the life of the respective asset, are expensed in the year incurred. When property is disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts. Any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

(k)

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require that a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, Olson first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values, and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Olson determined that no impairment loss had occurred.

 

 

(l)

Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangibles

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are reviewed for impairment at least annually or when a triggering event occurs.

 

Olson determined that it has one reporting unit, and reviewed the fair value of its reporting unit with its corresponding carrying amount (with goodwill) during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. As of December 31, 2013, Olson performed an analysis of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Based on Olson’s analysis of qualitative factors, Olson determined that is was not necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test for its reporting units.

 

As of December 31, 2013, Olson also performed an analysis of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that its indefinite-lived intangible assets, which consist of certain trade names, are impaired. Based on Olson’s analysis of qualitative factors, Olson determined that is was not necessary to perform a quantitative impairment analysis of its indefinite-lived intangible assets. There was no indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment in fiscal 2013 and 2012.

 

 

(m)

Other Intangible Assets

 

Olson recognizes and reports the value of other intangible assets created through business acquisitions. Capitalized customer relationships are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated term Olson retains its customers. Noncompete agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement, generally 4 to 5 years.

(n)

Deferred Financing Costs

 

Olson capitalizes the costs associated with securing debt financing and amortizes those costs to interest expense over the estimated term of the financing.

 

 

(o)

Share-Based Compensation

 

Olson has various share-based compensation programs, which provide for equity awards, including stock options and phantom stock. Olson uses the straight-line method to recognize compensation expense associated with share-based awards based on the fair value on the date of grant, net of the estimated forfeiture rate. Expense is recognized over the requisite service period related to each award, which is the period between the grant date and the vesting term. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Stock compensation expense is recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. See note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

 

 

(p)

Deferred Rent

 

Olson recognizes rent holidays, including the time period during which Olson has access to the property prior to the opening of the site, as well as construction allowances and escalating rent provisions, on a straight-line basis over the term of the operating lease.

 

 

(q)

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Olson does not incur any direct-response advertising costs. Advertising expense was $59,039 and $185,413 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

 

(r)

Fair Value of Financial Statements

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, payable to related party, and the current maturities of long-term debt approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.

 

The carrying amount of long-term debt and other long-term liabilities approximates fair value because the rates and terms of the existing arrangement approximate the current rates and terms at which Olson could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities.

 

 

(s)

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Olson recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.

 

(2)

Business Acquisitions

 

On December 13, 2013, Olson acquired 100% of the membership units of PulsePoint Group, LLC (PulsePoint), an Austin Texas-based digital management consulting firm, resulting in PulsePoint becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Olson. The results of PulsePoint’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date.

 

The preliminary purchase price was $24,612,761, including acquired cash of $240,644 and an estimated post-closing working capital reduction of $134,918, which is pending final resolution at December 31, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Olson is contingently obligated to make additional consideration payments not to exceed $10,000,000 to the sellers should PulsePoint’s financial performance exceed certain thresholds. Olson recorded $4,778,000 as an estimate of additional consideration under this agreement. This estimated consideration, net of the working capital reduction, is recorded as a payable to related parties in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013.

 

The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed under this acquisition for the year ended December 31, 2013:

Credit Agreement

 

On December 13, 2013, in conjunction with the acquisition of PulsePoint, Olson entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the 2013 Amended Agreement), which increased Olson’s term loan borrowing to $90,000,000. In addition to funding the acquisition of PulsePoint, the incremental proceeds were used for the payment of Series A-1 Preferred Stock cash dividends and the redemption of Series A-1 Preferred Stock. Under the 2013 Amended Agreement, Olson also has the ability to borrow up to $10,000,000 under a revolving loan commitment, subject to certain restrictions described below. The term and revolving loans under the 2013 Amended Agreement mature September 2017. Olson incurred $1,336,283 in financing fees in securing the 2013 Amended Agreement. These fees and the remaining fees from the original credit agreement are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the 2013 Amended Agreement.

 

The original credit agreement for the term loan and revolving loan (collectively, the Original Credit Agreement) was entered into in 2010 with various financial institutions. The initial borrowings under the term loan were $18,000,000 and Olson could borrow up to $7,000,000 pursuant to the revolving loan.

 

In 2011, the Original Credit Agreement was amended to allow for additional principal borrowings on the term loan of $8,400,000, increasing the term loan to $41,000,000 and the revolver commitment to $9,000,000.

 

On September 28, 2012, Olson entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the 2012 Amended Agreement), which increased the Olson’s term loan borrowing to $66,000,000. The proceeds were used for the repayment of the Original Credit Agreement, the payment of Series A-1 Preferred Stock cash dividends, and the redemption of Series A-1 Preferred Stock. Olson incurred $3,257,626 in financing fees in securing the 2012 Amended Agreement. These fees are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the 2013 Amended Agreement.

Under the 2013 Amended Agreement, the term loan requires quarterly installments of principal beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2014, with a final lump-sum payment due on the expiration of the agreement. The 2013 Amended Agreement allows for prepayment of the outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest and fees. A mandatory annual prepayment based on Olson’s Consolidated Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the 2013 Amended Agreement) is due and payable 135 days following each fiscal year beginning with fiscal year 2014.

 

Borrowing availability under the revolving loan is an amount equal to the lesser of the revolving loan commitment and a calculated amount based on a multiple of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2013 Amended Agreement) minus other outstanding debt or letters of credit. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, Olson had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving loan commitment. Olson had $7,383,333 available under the revolving loan at December 31, 2013. Olson must pay an annual commitment fee of 0.50% on the unused portion of the revolving loan, and a letter of commitment fee ranging from 5.25%-5.75% on outstanding letters of credit. Undrawn letters of credit totaling $2,616,667 and $2,700,000, respectively, were issued and outstanding at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

The interest rate for the term loan and amounts drawn under the revolving loan is equal to the Base rate, defined as the higher of the Prime rate, the Fed Funds rate plus 0.50%, or LIBOR plus 2.0%, plus an additional margin of 4.25%–4.75% based on Olson’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (Leverage Ratio, as defined in the 2013 Amended Agreement). Olson may elect to fix the interest rate on a portion of the term loan for a period of one, two, three or six months at a rate equal to the greater of the LIBOR or 1.5%, plus a margin of 5.25%–5.75% based on the Leverage Ratio. Interest is payable monthly on the Base rate borrowings, and due upon expiration of the interest option period for borrowings under the LIBOR option.

 

Amounts outstanding under the LIBOR option interest rate at December 31, 2013 and 2012 aggregated $90,000,000 and $64,762,500, respectively. The effective interest rate was 7.25% and 7.00% at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Obligations under the 2013 Amended Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, now owned or hereafter acquired. The 2013 Amended Agreement contains customary covenants that, among other things, require satisfaction of various annual and interim financial tests, and restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay cash dividends on common or preferred stock, and purchase or redeem any equity securities. In addition, the 2013 Amended Agreement restricts liens on assets. The 2013 Amended Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including events that constitute a material adverse effect as defined therein, which may accelerate outstanding amounts under the 2013 Amended Agreement. The Company believes that no such events have occurred nor are probable of occurring in the future. Olson was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Commitments and Contingencies

 

 

(a)

Operating Lease

 

Olson leases office space and equipment. Real estate, property taxes, insurance, and maintenance expenses related to the office space are obligations of Olson. Olson has various office space leases, expiring at various dates through January 2027, with monthly payments ranging from $1,055 to $271,016. The majority of these leases have escalation clauses. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the monthly lease expenses are recorded on a straight-line basis over the length of the lease. These differences are recorded through deferred rent. In conjunction with the move of Olson’s Minneapolis and Chicago headquarters, completed January 2012 and March 2012, respectively, landlord-provided tenant improvements of $7,205,463 were recorded to leasehold improvements and deferred rent for the year ended December 31, 2012. These improvements are being depreciated over the life of the lease, with the corresponding deferred rent credit reducing rent expense over the same term. Equipment leases expire at various dates through November 2016 with monthly payments ranging from $335 to $13,833.

 

Estimated future operating lease payments are as follows:

Legal Proceedings

 

Olson is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on Olson’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

 

(8)

Stockholders’ Equity

 

At December 31, 2013, capital stock consists of 150,000 authorized shares of $0.001 par value common stock and 150,000 authorized shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were 63,708 and 60,019 shares of common stock and 30,640 and 41,655 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock outstanding, respectively.

 

 

(a)

Common Stock

 

The 150,000 authorized common shares consist of 110,000 designated voting common stock and 40,000 designated nonvoting common stock. Under the Company’s 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, 1,000 shares of voting common stock and 28,250 shares of nonvoting common stock are reserved for issuance.

 

Holders of the voting common shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including election of directors.

 

In the event that any employee stockholder terminates employment for any reason (other than death or disability), the Company may elect (in its sole discretion) to purchase such employee’s common shares. The purchase price for such shares shall be the greater of the fair value as determined in good faith by the board of directors as of the date of termination or the price at which such shares were issued.

 

 

(b)

Preferred Stock

 

The 150,000 authorized preferred shares consist of 130,000 shares designated as Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and 20,000 shares designated as Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock. Under the Company’s 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, 1,000 shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and 100 shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock are reserved for issuance.

 

 

(c)

Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock

 

Except as described below, the Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock is generally not entitled to a vote but is entitled to receive cumulative preferred dividends at a rate equal to 12% per year, compounded annually, based on an original issue price of $999.90 per share. Such dividends are to be paid in legally available funds if and when declared by the Company’s board of directors, or upon a Liquidity event, as defined.

 

In December 2013, the Company paid cash dividends totaling $5,788,743 and redeemed 14,257 shares of Series A-1 preferred stock for $14,255,574. During September and October of 2012, the Company paid cash dividends totaling $19,972,491 and redeemed 17,899 shares of Series A-1 preferred stock for $17,897,210.

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

 

 

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, $181,304 and $931,153 of undeclared and unpaid dividends had accumulated, respectively. The Company has not recorded these amounts at either December 31, 2013 or 2012 as the dividends are contingently payable based on future events.

 

The holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, are necessary to approve or ratify any amendment, alteration, or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, any increase or decrease in the authorized number of shares of common stock or preferred stock, any dissolution, liquidation, recapitalization, merger, or public offering of the Company, any change in the size of the board of directors of the Company, and certain other matters.

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, each share of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock is entitled to a liquidation value equal to $999.90 per share plus all accrued but unpaid dividends (as adjusted for any future stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends, or similar transactions) regardless of whether or not these amounts have been declared (Liquidation Value).

 

Shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock are redeemable at any time at the option of the Company’s board of directors, closing of a qualified public offering, significant change in ownership, and a fundamental change. The redemption price is Liquidation Value. If a fundamental change (generally defined as a change in control of the business) occurs, holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem all or a pro rata portion of these shares at Liquidation Value.

 

In the event that any employee stockholder terminates employment for any reason (other than death or disability), the Company may elect (in its sole discretion) to purchase such employee’s Redeemable Preferred Stock and common shares. The purchase price for such shares shall be the greater of the fair value as determined in good faith by the board of directors as of the date of termination or the price at which such shares were issued.

 

 

(d)

Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock

 

There are no shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock outstanding. Shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock carry no voting rights. Holders of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock are not entitled to dividends unless dividends are declared and paid on the outstanding shares of nonvoting common stock (including any previously accrued but unpaid dividends). However, the conversion rate for shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock is adjusted to account for stock splits, dividends, and other distributions on the Company’s common stock as if the Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock were common stock as of its original issue date.

 

Shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock become Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and are convertible into common stock to the extent that the shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and common stock realize gains (as defined in the amended and restated certificate of incorporation) on the disposition of Company shares above certain defined internal rates of return. The Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converts into common stock immediately prior to a registered initial public offering and certain change of control transactions. The conversion ratio is variable and is based on the internal rate of return achieved by the holders of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and common stock. Any remaining portion of the shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock that were not qualified for conversion to common stock are redeemed at the original conversion price of $0.10 per share upon a Liquidity event.

Incentive Equity Plans

 

The Company established an employee stock option plan providing officers, directors, key employees, and other persons stock-based compensation and investment opportunities. The plan allows for the grant of stock options and the sale of common and preferred shares. Options granted under the plan may be nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options. The plan establishes three types of awards: (1) Investment Units consisting of one share of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and one share of Voting Common Stock, (2) Nonvoting Common Stock, and (3) Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock. Stock-based compensation costs under these plans that have been included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income amounted to $1,265,931 and $98,597 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized for stock-based compensation was $177,877 and $185,195 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Each option granted under the plan expires in 10 years from the grant date, unless the award is an incentive stock option. Options awarded to grantees that are a 10% or greater stockholder are intended to be an incentive stock option, in which case the option expires five years from the grant date. These options vest at the rate of 1/5 of the total number of shares on each anniversary date beginning on the first anniversary of the grant.

 

At December 31, 2013, the Company has reserved 1,000 Investment Units, 28,250 shares of Nonvoting Common Stock, and 100 shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock for issuance under this plan.

At December 31, 2013, there was $3,099,729 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over the next five years.

 

The grant-date fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Since the Company is a private entity with no historical data on the volatility of its stock, the expected volatility is based on volatility of similar entities (referred to as guideline companies). In evaluating similarity, the Company considered characteristics such as industry, stage of life cycle, size, and financial leverage. The expected term of options granted is determined using the “shortcut” method, where the expected term is presumed to be the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the estimated life of the option. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends and does not presently plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

The estimated weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the years 2013 and 2012 was $415.65 and $334.70, respectively, as of the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:

The Company has a phantom equity incentive plan, which provides grantees with the right to receive a specified number of phantom equity units upon a Liquidity event, as defined. The equity units entitle an employee to receive a cash payment at the time of liquidation if the Liquidity Event Value of the Company’s common stock, as defined, exceeds a minimum threshold of $1,000 per share. These units vest in full upon a Liquidity event. A total of 2,120 equity units were granted under this plan in 2012. Based on the characteristics of the phantom equity plan, the Company concludes that the phantom stock awards are considered a liability-classified award under the Accounting Standards Codification 718-10, Compensation—Stock–Compensation—Overall. The value of these awards will be determined based on the fair value of the Company’s common shares as determined by the Liquidity event. However, because the awards vest upon the occurrence of a performance condition, which is not probably of occurrence, no compensation cost will be recognized until the occurrence of the Liquidity event.

Employee Benefit Plans

 

401(k) Plan

 

Olson has a profit sharing plan qualifying under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The provisions of the plan provide that an employee’s contribution may be matched by an Olson contribution up to a certain limit. Olson may also make a discretionary contribution. The plan covers substantially all employees after specified periods of service and attainment of minimum age requirements. Olson made contributions of $752,447 and $726,227 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2013 and 2012 are presented below:

 

   

2013

   

2012

 

Deferred tax assets:

               

Deferred rent and accrued expenses

  $ 3,064,695       3,277,182  

Accrued compensation

    690,373       165,925  

Other

    102,308       1,562  

Total deferred tax assets

    3,857,376       3,444,669  

Deferred tax liabilities:

               

Property, equipment, and intangible assets

    (5,211,236 )     (5,426,442 )

Prepaid expenses

    (211,253 )     (271,612 )

Total deferred tax liabilities

    (5,422,489 )     (5,698,054 )

Net deferred tax liability

  $ (1,565,113 )     (2,253,385 )

 

 

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and carryback potential in making this assessment. Based upon the availability of carryback potential and reversal of deferred tax liabilities over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that Olson will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

As of December 31, 2013, Olson had approximately $2,249,903 of accumulated undistributed earnings from its Canadian subsidiary, which are considered to be reinvested indefinitely. No deferred tax liability has been provided for such earnings.

 

 
25

 

 

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the unrecognized tax benefit accrual was insignificant. Olson has elected to classify any future interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense if incurred.

 

Olson files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and state jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2013, Olson was no longer subject to income tax examinations for taxable years before 2009 for U.S. federal taxing authorities, and taxable years generally before 2008 in the case of state taxing authorities.

OCO HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013

   

 

 

(1)

Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the financial information included therein. This financial data should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Operating results for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

OCO Holdings, Inc. (the Company) is a Delaware corporation established to acquire and hold an investment in its wholly owned subsidiary, Olson + Co., Inc. (Olson).

 

Olson is a full service agency providing advertising, interactive, public relations, brand design, media services, strategy, and production for some of the world’s most respected brands, with offices in Minnesota, Illinois, Texas, California, New York, and Ontario, Canada.

 

(2)

Business Acquisitions

 

On December 13, 2013, Olson acquired 100% of the membership units of PulsePoint Group, LLC (“PulsePoint”), an Austin Texas-based digital management consulting firm, resulting in PulsePoint becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Olson. The results of PulsePoint’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since that date.

 

The preliminary purchase price was $24,612,761, including acquired cash of $240,644 and an estimated post-closing working capital reduction of $134,918. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Olson is contingently obligated to make additional consideration payments not to exceed $10,000,000 to the sellers should PulsePoint’s financial performance exceed certain thresholds. Olson recorded $4,778,000 as the estimated fair value of additional consideration under this agreement. This estimated consideration, net of the working capital reduction, are recorded as a payable to related parties in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Each reporting period the Company determines the fair value of the contingent consideration liability and any changes in value are reflected in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company reduced the fair value of the contingent consideration liability to $2,200,000.

 

The Company determines the fair value of the payable to related parties on a recurring basis using a discounted cash flow model which includes a probability assessment of expected future cash flows related to PulsePoint. The fair value measurement uses significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus, represents a Level 3 fair value measurement under the fair value hierarchy of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

Related-Party Transactions

 

Four private equity entities affiliated with KRG own 72% of the preferred and common stock of the Company. The remainder of the Company is owned by management, directors, and certain other investors.

 

The Company is party to a management agreement with KRG, whereby KRG provides governance, strategic and tactical planning, and advice to the Company. The agreement provides for annual management fees to KRG in the amount of $480,000, to be paid in twelve monthly installments of $40,000, plus reimbursement for expenses. The five-year agreement expired October 2014, but provides for an automatic renewal thereafter on a year-to-year basis unless one party gives the other thirty days prior written notice of desire not to renew this agreement. The management fees and expenses paid for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 totaled $388,084 and $412,096, respectively.

 Credit Agreement

 

On December 13, 2013, in conjunction with the acquisition of PulsePoint, Olson entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the 2013 Amended Agreement) which increased Olson’s term loan borrowing to $90,000,000. In addition to funding the acquisition of PulsePoint, the incremental proceeds were used for the payment of Series A-1 Preferred Stock cash dividends and the redemption of Series A-1 Preferred Stock. Under the 2013 Amended Agreement, Olson also has the ability to borrow up to $10,000,000 under a revolving loan commitment, subject to certain restrictions described below. The term and revolving loans under the 2013 Amended Agreement mature September 2017.

 

Under the 2013 Amended Agreement, the term loan requires quarterly installments of principal beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2014, with a final lump-sum payment due on the expiration of the agreement. The 2013 Amended Agreement allows for prepayment of the outstanding principal amount and all accrued but unpaid interest and fees. A mandatory annual prepayment based on Olson’s Consolidated Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the 2013 Amended Agreement) is due and payable 135 days following each fiscal year beginning with fiscal year 2014.

 

Borrowing availability under the revolving loan is an amount equal to the lesser of the revolving loan commitment and a calculated amount based on a multiple of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2013 Amended Agreement) minus other outstanding debt or letters of credit. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, Olson had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving loan commitment.

 

The interest rate for the term loan and amounts drawn under the revolving loan is equal to the Base rate, defined as the higher of the Prime rate, the Fed Funds rate plus 0.50%, or LIBOR plus 2.0%, plus an additional margin of 4.25%–4.75% based on Olson’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (Leverage Ratio, as defined in the 2013 Amended Agreement). Olson may elect to fix the interest rate on a portion of the term loan for a period of one, two, three or six months at a rate equal to the greater of the LIBOR or 1.5%, plus a margin of 5.25%–5.75% based on the Leverage Ratio. Interest is payable monthly on the Base rate borrowings, and due upon expiration of the interest option period for borrowings under the LIBOR option.

September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013

 

 

 

Amounts outstanding under the LIBOR option interest rate at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 aggregated $83,250,000 and $90,000,000, respectively. The effective interest rate was 7.25% at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Obligations under the 2013 Amended Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, now owned or hereafter acquired. The 2013 Amended Agreement contains customary covenants that, among other things, require satisfaction of various annual and interim financial tests, and restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay cash dividends on common or preferred stock, and purchase or redeem any equity securities. In addition, the 2013 Amended Agreement restricts liens on assets. The 2013 Amended Agreement also provides for customary events of default, including events that constitute a material adverse effect as defined therein, which may accelerate outstanding amounts under the 2013 Amended Agreement. Olson was in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Future aggregate scheduled maturities of the term loan are as follows:

Preferred Stock

 

The 150,000 authorized preferred shares consist of 130,000 shares designated as Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and 20,000 shares designated as Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock. Under the Company’s 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, 1,000 shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and 100 shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock are reserved for issuance.

 

 

(c)

Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock

 

Except as described below, the Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock is generally not entitled to a vote but is entitled to receive cumulative preferred dividends at a rate equal to 12% per year, compounded annually, based on an original issue price of $999.90 per share. Such dividends are to be paid in legally available funds if and when declared by the Company’s board of directors, or upon a Liquidity event, as defined.

 

In December 2013, the Company paid cash dividends totaling $5,788,743 and redeemed 14,257 shares of Series A-1 preferred stock for $14,255,574

 

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $2,930,878 and $181,304 of undeclared and unpaid dividends had accumulated, respectively. The Company has not recorded these amounts at either September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013 as the dividends are contingently payable based on future events.

 

The holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, are necessary to approve or ratify any amendment, alteration, or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, any increase or decrease in the authorized number of shares of common stock or preferred stock, any dissolution, liquidation, recapitalization, merger, or public offering of the Company, any change in the size of the board of directors of the Company, and certain other matters.

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, each share of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock is entitled to a liquidation value equal to $999.90 per share plus all accrued but unpaid dividends (as adjusted for any future stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends, or similar transactions) regardless of whether or not these amounts have been declared (Liquidation Value).

 

Shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock are redeemable at any time at the option of the Company’s board of directors, closing of a qualified public offering, significant change in ownership, and a fundamental change. The redemption price is Liquidation Value. If a fundamental change (generally defined as a change in control of the business) occurs, holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock may require the Company to redeem all or a pro rata portion of these shares at Liquidation Value.

In the event that any employee stockholder terminates employment for any reason (other than death or disability), the Company may elect (in its sole discretion) to purchase such employee’s Redeemable Preferred Stock and common shares. The purchase price for such shares shall be the greater of the fair value as determined in good faith by the board of directors as of the date of termination or the price at which such shares were issued.

 

 

(d)

Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock

 

There are no shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock outstanding. Shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock carry no voting rights. Holders of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock are not entitled to dividends unless dividends are declared and paid on the outstanding shares of nonvoting common stock (including any previously accrued but unpaid dividends). However, the conversion rate for shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock is adjusted to account for stock splits, dividends, and other distributions on the Company’s common stock as if the Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock were common stock as of its original issue date.

 

Shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock become Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and are convertible into common stock to the extent that the shares of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and common stock realize gains (as defined in the amended and restated certificate of incorporation) on the disposition of Company shares above certain defined internal rates of return. The Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converts into common stock immediately prior to a registered initial public offering and certain change of control transactions. The conversion ratio is variable and is based on the internal rate of return achieved by the holders of Series A-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock and common stock. Any remaining portion of the shares of Series B-1 Contingent Preferred Stock that were not qualified for conversion to common stock are redeemed at the original conversion price of $0.10 per share upon a Liquidity event.

Commitments and Contingencies

 

Legal Proceedings

 

Olson is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on Olson’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

 

(7)

Income Taxes

 

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company’s income tax expense was 37.8% of income before income taxes, compared to 35.4% for the same period of 2013. The rate for the first nine months of 2014 and 2013 was higher than the federal statutory rate due primarily to the impact of state taxes, net of the federal benefit.

 

(8)

Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent events have been evaluated up to and including January 21, 2015, which is the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

  

On November 5, 2014, ICF International, Inc. (“ICF” or the "Company"), completed the acquisition of OCO Holdings, Inc. (“Olson”), a Delaware corporation. As contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), Olson became a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements have been prepared to give effect to the completed acquisition as if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the fiscal period January 1, 2013, the beginning of the earliest fiscal period presented, and as of September 30, 2014 for the balance sheet.

 

The pro forma amounts have been developed from the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, for ICF and Olson, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements of ICF contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and audited financial statements for Olson for the year ended December 31, 2013. The historical Olson financial information is reflected in the financial statements according to ICF’s presentation. The assumptions, estimates and adjustments here have been made solely for the purposes of developing these consolidated financial statements.

 

In accordance with the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Olson were recorded at their respective estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Management's estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based, in part, on third-party evaluations. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a preliminary valuation, and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change.

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to represent the actual consolidated results of operations or the consolidated financial position of ICF had the acquisition occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the separate historical consolidated financial statements of ICF and Olson.

 

Note A. Basis of Presentation

 

On November 5, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Olson, a leading provider of marketing technology and digital services based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The acquisition expands the Company’s existing digital technology and strategic communications work and strengthens its ability to bring more integrated solutions to an expanded client base including multi-channel marketing initiatives across web, mobile, email, social, print, broadcast and off-premise platforms.

 

The aggregate purchase price of approximately $296.4 million in cash, which includes the estimated working capital adjustment required by the Merger Agreement, was funded by the Company’s Fourth Amended and Restated Business Loan and Security Agreement, as modified on November 5, 2014. The Company engaged an independent valuation firm to assist management in the allocation of the purchase price to goodwill and to other acquired intangible assets. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net tangible assets acquired was approximately $273.6 million. The Company has allocated approximately $208.8 million to goodwill and $64.8 million to other intangible assets. The intangible assets consist of approximately $60.3 million of customer-related intangibles that are being amortized over 10.2 years from the acquisition date, $3.9 million of marketing-related intangibles that are being amortized over 1.2 years from the acquisition date, and $0.6 million of technology intangibles that are being amortized over 6.2 years from the acquisition date. Olson was a stock purchase for tax purposes; therefore, goodwill and amortization of other intangibles created via this acquisition are not deductible for income tax purposes. These items will not affect the Company’s deferred tax assets or liabilities. The Company is still evaluating the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities and pre-acquisition contingencies; therefore, the final allocation of the purchase price has not been completed.

 

Note B. Pro Forma Adjustments

 

The pro forma adjustments include the estimated purchase price, including goodwill and intangibles, taxes, amortization expense, interest expense, and other expenses. The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited consolidated financial statements are as follows:

 

 

(a)

Eliminate Olson goodwill and other intangibles, and adjust goodwill, and other intangible assets to reflect preliminary purchase price allocation.                                                        

 

(b)

Eliminate Olson deferred financing fees.                                                  

 

(c)

Eliminate Olson current and long-term deferred rent, debt and settled contingent liabilities, and reflect long-term debt borrowed as a result of the acquisition.                                                   

 

(d)

Eliminate Olson equity, and adjust stockholders’ equity for the impact of pro forma adjustments.

 

(e)

Adjust for increased stock-based compensation as a result of the acquisition.                              

 

(f)

Eliminate Olson management fees for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and eliminate costs related to ICF's acquisition of Olson and income related to the reduction of an Olson contingent liability that was settled as a result of the acquisition for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.                                   

 

(g)

Eliminate Olson amortization and record additional amortization on assets acquired from the acquisition.                

 

(h)

Eliminate Olson interest expense and record interest expense as a result of debt incurred from the acquisition.           

 

(i)

Adjust provision for income taxes to reflect ICF’s effective rate for the period.
