PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

 

This summary does not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read the entire prospectus, including the Risk Factors and our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus before making an investment decision.

  

Overview

 

We were originally formed for the purpose of effecting a business combination with one or more businesses or entities. On March 15, 2018, we consummated our initial business combination. As a result of the merger, the business of Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. and its subsidiaries became our business. Accordingly, we are now a holding company operating through our direct and indirect subsidiaries.

 

Company History

 

We were formed under the name “Andina Acquisition Corp. II” as an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on July 1, 2015 for the purpose of entering into a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more target businesses.

 

From the consummation of our initial public offering until October 27, 2017, we were searching for a suitable target business to acquire. On October 27, 2017, a Merger Agreement was entered into by and among Andina Acquisition Corp. II (“Andina”), Andina II Holdco Corp. a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Andina (“Holdco”), Andina II Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub”), Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. and solely for certain purposes set forth in the Merger Agreement, A. Lorne Weil (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for a business combination transaction by means of (i) the merger of Andina with and into Holdco, with Holdco surviving and becoming a new public company (the “Redomestication Merger”) and (ii) the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub with the Company surviving and becoming a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (the “Transaction Merger” and together with the Redomestication Merger, the “Merger”). On March 15, 2018, we held an extraordinary general meeting of our shareholders, at which our shareholders approved the merger and other related proposals. On the same date, we closed the merger. In connection with the merger, our business became the business of Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. and its subsidiaries. As a result of the Mergers, the Company’s stockholders and the shareholders of Andina became stockholders of Holdco and we changed the name of Holdco to “Lazydays Holdings, Inc.”

 

Our Business

 

The Company operates Recreation Vehicle (“RV”) dealerships and offers a comprehensive portfolio of products and services for RV owners and outdoor enthusiasts. The Company generates revenue by providing RV owners and outdoor enthusiasts a full spectrum of products: RV sales, RV-repair and services, financing and insurance products, third-party protection plans, after-market parts and accessories, RV rentals and RV camping. The Company provides these offerings through its Lazydays branded dealerships. Lazydays is known nationally as The RV AuthorityTM , a registered trademark that has been consistently used by the Company in its marketing and branding communications since 2013. In this Registration Statement on Form S-1, we refer to Lazydays Holdings, Inc. as “Lazydays,” the “Company,” “Holdco,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar words.

 

The Company believes, based on industry research and management’s estimates, it operates one of the world’s largest RV dealerships, measured in terms of on-site inventory, located on 126 acres outside Tampa, FL. The Company also operates RV dealerships in Tucson, AZ and three cities in Colorado, Loveland, Denver and Longmont. Lazydays offers the largest selection of RV brands in the nation featuring more than 2,500 new and pre-owned RVs. The Company has over 300 service bays across all locations and has RV parts and accessories stores at all locations. Lazydays also has RV rental fleets in all three markets and availability to two on-site campgrounds with over 700 RV campsites. The Company welcomes over 500,000 visitors to its dealership locations annually, and employs over 700 people at the five facilities. The Company’s dealership locations are staffed with knowledgeable local team members, providing customers access to extensive RV expertise. The Company believes its dealership locations are strategically located in key RV markets. Based on information collected by the Company from reports prepared by Statistical Surveys, these key RV markets (Florida, Colorado and Arizona) account for a significant portion of new RV units sold on an annual basis in the U.S. The Company’s dealerships in these key markets attract customers from all states, except Hawaii.

 

The Company attracts new customers primarily through Lazydays dealership locations as well as digital and traditional marketing efforts. Once the Company acquires customers through a transaction, those customers become part of the Company’s customer database where the Company leverages customized CRM tools and analytics to actively engage, market and sell its products and services.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks described below and all of the other information set forth in this Registration Statement on Form S-1, including our financial statements and related notes and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” before deciding to invest in our common stock. If any of the events or developments described below occur, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially or adversely affected. As a result, the market price of our common stock could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

 

Risks Related to Lazydays’ Business

 

The Company’s business is affected by the availability of financing to it and its customers.

 

The Company’s business is affected by the availability of financing to it and its customers. Generally, RV dealers, including the Company, finance their purchases of inventory with financing provided by lending institutions. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had up to $140.0 million in committed financing under a floor plan financing facility (the “Floor Plan Facility”). As of December 31, 2017, the Company had $105.2 million floor plan notes payable outstanding with $34.8 million of additional borrowing capacity under the Floor Plan Facility. As of December 31, 2017, substantially all of the invoice cost of new RV inventory and 15% of book value of used RV inventory was financed under the Floor Plan Facility. On March 15, 2018, the Company entered into a new floor plan facility with a new bank which increased the committed financing to $175.0 million. A decrease in the availability of this type of wholesale financing or an increase in the cost of such wholesale financing could prevent the Company from carrying adequate levels of inventory, which may limit product offerings and could lead to reduced sales and revenues.

 

Furthermore, many of the Company’s customers finance their RV purchases. Although consumer credit markets have improved, consumer credit market conditions continue to influence demand, especially for RVs, and may continue to do so. There continue to be fewer lenders, more stringent underwriting and loan approval criteria, and greater down payment requirements than in the past. If credit conditions or the credit worthiness of the Company’s customers worsen, and adversely affect the ability of consumers to finance potential purchases at acceptable terms and interest rates, it could result in a decrease in the sales of the Company’s products and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Fuel shortages, or high prices for fuel, could have a negative effect on the Company’s business.

 

Gasoline or diesel fuel is required for the operation of RVs. There can be no assurance that the supply of these petroleum products will continue uninterrupted, that rationing will not be imposed or that the price of or tax on these petroleum products will not significantly increase in the future. Shortages of gasoline and diesel fuel have had a material adverse effect on the RV industry as a whole in the past and any such shortages or substantial increases in the price of fuel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

The Company’s success will depend to a significant extent on the well-being, as well as the continued popularity and reputation for quality, of the Company’s manufacturers, particularly Thor Industries, Inc., Tiffin Motorhomes, Winnebago Industries, Inc., and Forest River, Inc.

 

Thor Industries, Inc., Tiffin Motorhomes, Winnebago Industries, Inc., and Forest River, Inc. supplied approximately 29%, 27%, 21%, and 15%, respectively, of the Company’s new RV inventory as of December 31, 2017. The Company depends on its manufacturers to provide it with products that compare favorably with competing products in terms of quality, performance, safety and advanced features. Any adverse change in the production efficiency, product development efforts, technological advancement, marketplace acceptance, reputation, marketing capabilities or financial condition of the Company’s manufacturers could have a substantial adverse impact on the Company’s business. Any difficulties encountered by any of the Company’s manufacturers resulting from economic, financial, or other factors could adversely affect the quality and amount of products that they are able to supply to the Company and the services and support they provide to the Company.

 

The interruption or discontinuance of the operations of the Company’s manufacturers could cause the Company to experience shortfalls, disruptions, or delays with respect to needed inventory. Although the Company believes that adequate alternate sources would be available that could replace any manufacturer as a product source, those alternate sources may not be available at the time of any interruption, and alternative products may not be available at comparable quality and prices.

 

 3 
 

 

Any change, non-renewal, unfavorable renegotiation or termination of the Company’s supply arrangements for any reason could have a material adverse effect on product availability and cost and the Company’s financial performance.

 

The Company’s supply arrangements with manufacturers are typically governed by dealer agreements, which are customary in the RV industry. The Company’s dealer agreements with manufacturers are generally made on a location-by-location basis, and each retail location typically enters into multiple dealer agreements with multiple manufacturers. The terms of the Company’s dealer agreements are typically subject to:

 

  the Company meeting all of the requirements and conditions of the manufacturer’s applicable programs;
     
  the Company meeting certain retail sales objectives;
     
  the Company performing services and repairs for all owners of the manufacturer’s RVs (regardless from whom the RV was purchased) that are still under warranty and the Company carrying the manufacturer’s parts and accessories needed to service and repair the manufacturer’s RVs in stock at all times;
     
  the Company actively advertising and promoting the manufacturer’s RVs; and
     
  the Company indemnifying the manufacturer under certain circumstances.

 

The Company’s dealer agreements designate a specific geographical territory for the Company, exclusive to the Company, provided that the Company is able to meet the material obligations of the applicable dealer agreement.

 

In addition, many of the Company’s dealer agreements contain contractual provisions concerning minimum advertised product pricing for current model year units. Wholesale pricing is generally established on a model year basis and is subject to change in the manufacturer’s sole discretion. In certain cases, the manufacturer may also establish a suggested retail price, below which the Company cannot advertise that manufacturer’s RVs. Any change, non-renewal, unfavorable renegotiation or termination of these dealer agreements for any reason could have a material adverse effect on product availability and cost and the Company’s financial performance.

 

The Company’s business is impacted by general economic conditions in its markets, and ongoing economic and financial uncertainties may cause a decline in consumer spending that may adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company depends on consumer discretionary spending and, accordingly, the Company may be adversely affected if its customers reduce, delay or forego their purchases of the Company’s services, protection plans and products as a result of:

 

  job losses;
     
  bankruptcies;
     
  higher consumer debt and interest rates;
     
  reduced access to credit;
     
  higher energy and fuel costs;
     
  relative or perceived cost, availability and comfort of RV use versus other modes of travel, such as air travel and rail;
     
  falling home prices;
     
  lower consumer confidence;
     
  uncertainty or changes in tax policies and tax rates; or
     
  uncertainty due to national or international security concerns.

 

 4 
 

 

Decreases in the number of customers, average spend per customer or retention and renewal rates for the Company’s consumer services and plans would negatively affect the Company’s financial performance. A prolonged period of depressed consumer spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. In addition, adverse economic conditions may result in an increase in the Company’s operating expenses due to, among other things, higher costs of labor, energy, equipment and facilities. Due to recent fluctuations in the U.S. economy, the Company’s sales, operating and financial results for a particular period are difficult to predict, making it difficult to forecast results for future periods. Additionally, the Company is subject to economic fluctuations in local markets that may not reflect the general economic conditions of the broader U.S. economy. Any of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company depends on its ability to attract and retain customers.

 

The Company’s future success depends in large part upon the Company’s ability to attract and retain customers for its services, protection plans, products and resources. The extent to which the Company achieves growth in its customer base materially influences the Company’s profitability. Any number of factors could affect the Company’s ability to grow its customer base. These factors include consumer preferences and general economic conditions, the Company’s ability to maintain its retail locations, weather conditions, the availability of alternative products, significant increases in gasoline prices, the disposable income of consumers available for discretionary expenditures and the external perception of the Company’s brands. Any significant decline in the Company’s customer base, the rate of growth of its customer base or customer demand could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Competition in the market for services, protection plans and products targeting the RV lifestyle or RV enthusiast could reduce the Company’s revenues and profitability.

 

The market for services, protection plans and products targeting the RV lifestyle or RV enthusiast is highly fragmented and competitive. Competition in the RV market is driven by price, product and service features, technology, performance, reliability, quality, availability, variety, delivery and customer service. In addition to competing with other dealers of new and used RVs, the Company competes directly or indirectly with major national insurance and warranty companies, providers of roadside assistance and providers of extended service contracts.

 

Additional competitors may enter the businesses in which the Company currently operates. If any of the Company’s competitors successfully provides a broader, more efficient or attractive combination of services, protection plans and products to the Company’s target customers, the Company’s business results could be materially adversely affected. The Company’s inability to compete effectively with existing or potential competitors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Some of the Company’s existing competitors have, and some of the Company’s future competitors may have, greater financial, personnel, and other resources, more well-established brands or reputations and broader customer bases than the Company and, as a result, these competitors may be in a stronger position to respond quickly to potential acquisitions and other market opportunities and changes in customer preferences. Some of these competitors may have customer bases that are more geographically balanced than the Company’s and, therefore, may be less affected by an economic downturn in a particular region or market. Competitors with greater resources also may be able to offer lower prices, additional products or services or other incentives that the Company cannot match or does not offer. Industry consolidations may also create competitors with broader and more geographic coverage.

 

The Company’s expansion into new, unfamiliar markets presents increased risks that may prevent it from being profitable in these new markets. Delays in opening or acquiring new retail locations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company intends to expand in part by building or acquiring new retail locations in new markets. As a result, the Company may have less familiarity with local consumer preferences and could encounter difficulties in attracting customers due to a reduced level of consumer familiarity with the Company’s brands. Other factors that may impact the Company’s ability to open or acquire new retail locations in new markets and operate them profitably, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, include:

 

 5 
 

 

  the Company’s ability to identify suitable acquisition opportunities or new locations, including the Company’s ability to gather and assess demographic and marketing data to determine consumer demand for the Company’s products in the locations the Company selects;
     
  the Company’s ability to negotiate favorable lease agreements;
     
  the Company’s ability to secure product lines;
     
  the availability of construction materials and labor for new retail locations and the occurrence of significant construction delays or cost overruns;
     
  the Company’s ability to accurately assess the profitability of potential acquisitions or new locations;
     
  the Company’s ability to secure required governmental permits and approvals;
     
  the Company’s ability to hire and train skilled operating personnel, especially management personnel;
     
  the Company’s ability to provide a satisfactory product mix that is responsive to the needs of its customers living in the geographic areas where new retail locations are built or acquired;
     
  the Company’s ability to supply new retail locations with inventory in a timely manner;
     
  the Company’s competitors building or leasing retail locations near the Company’s retail locations or in locations the Company has identified as targets;
     
  regional economic and other factors in the geographic areas in which the Company expands; and
     
  general economic and business conditions affecting consumer confidence and spending and the overall strength of the Company’s business.

 

Once the Company decides on a new market and identifies a suitable location or acquisition opportunity, any delays in opening or acquiring or developing new retail locations could impact the Company’s financial results. It is possible that events, such as delays in the entitlements process or construction delays caused by permitting or licensing issues, material shortages, labor issues, weather delays or other acts of god, discovery of contaminants, accidents, deaths or injuries could delay planned openings or force the Company to abandon planned openings altogether.

 

As the Company grows, the Company will face the risk that its existing resources and systems, including management resources, accounting and finance personnel and operating systems, may be inadequate to support its growth. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain the personnel or make the changes in its systems that may be required to support its growth. Failure to secure these resources and implement these systems on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. In addition, hiring additional personnel and implementing changes and enhancements to the Company’s systems will require capital expenditures and other increased costs that could also have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations.

 

The Company’s expansion into new markets may also create new challenges including an increase in information to be processed by the Company’s information management systems and diversion of management attention from existing operations. To the extent that the Company is not able to meet these additional challenges, the Company’s sales could decrease and the Company’s operating expenses could increase, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Finally, the size, timing, and integration of any future new retail location openings or acquisitions may cause substantial fluctuations in the Company’s results of operations from quarter to quarter. Consequently, the Company’s results of operations for any quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for any subsequent quarter or for a full fiscal year. These fluctuations could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a result of the above factors, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to operate retail locations in new markets on a profitable basis. The failure to operate retail locations in new markets on a profitable basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Unforeseen expenses, difficulties, and delays encountered in connection with expansion through acquisitions could inhibit the Company’s growth and negatively impact its profitability.

 

The Company’s success will depend, in part, on the ability of the Company to make successful acquisitions and to integrate the operations of acquired retail locations, including centralizing certain functions to achieve cost savings and pursuing programs and processes that promote cooperation and the sharing of opportunities and resources among the Company’s retail locations and consumer services and plans. Unforeseen expenses, difficulties and delays encountered in connection with rapid expansion through acquisitions could inhibit the Company’s growth, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s profitability.

 

Additionally, the Company may be unable to identify suitable acquisition candidates or consummate acquisitions. Increased competition for acquisition candidates or increased asking prices by acquisition candidates may increase purchase prices for acquisitions to levels beyond the Company’s financial capability or to levels that would be unlikely to provide the returns required by the Company’s acquisition criteria. Acquisitions also may become more difficult or less attractive in the future as the Company continues to acquire the most attractive dealers. In addition, the Company may encounter difficulties in integrating the operations of acquired dealers with its own operations or managing acquired dealers and stores profitably without substantial costs, delays, or other operational or financial problems.

 

The Company’s ability to continue to grow through the acquisition of additional retail locations will depend upon various factors, including the following:

 

  the availability of suitable acquisition candidates at attractive purchase prices;
     
  the ability to compete effectively for available acquisition opportunities;
     
  the availability of cash on hand, borrowed funds or shares of common stock with a sufficient market price to finance acquisitions;
     
  the ability to obtain any requisite third party or governmental approvals; and
     
  the absence of one or more third parties attempting to impose unsatisfactory restrictions on the Company in connection with their approval of acquisitions.

 

As a part of the Company’s acquisition strategy, the Company has engaged and will continue to engage in acquisition discussions with various dealerships. In connection with these acquisition discussions, the Company and each potential acquisition candidate exchange confidential operational and financial information, conduct due diligence inquiries, and consider the structure, terms, and conditions of the potential acquisition. Potential acquisition discussions may take place over a long period of time and involve difficult business integration and other issues, including in some cases, management succession, employee transitions and related matters. As a result of these and other factors, potential acquisitions that may from time to time appear likely to occur may not be consummated. In addition, the Company may have disagreements with potential acquisition targets, which could lead to litigation. Any of these factors or outcomes could result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Failure to maintain the strength and value of the Company’s brands could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s success depends on the value and strength of the Lazydays brands. The Lazydays name and Lazydays brands are integral to the Company’s business as well as to the implementation of the Company’s strategies for expanding its business. Maintaining, enhancing, promoting and positioning the Company’s brands, particularly in new markets where the Company has limited brand recognition, will depend largely on the success of the Company’s marketing efforts and its ability to provide high quality services, protection plans, products and resources and a consistent, high quality customer experience. The Company’s brands could be adversely affected if the Company fails to achieve these objectives, if the Company fails to comply with local laws and regulations, if the Company is subject to publicized litigation or if the Company’s public image or reputation were to be tarnished by negative publicity. Some of these risks are not within the Company’s control, such as the effects of negative publicity regarding the Company’s manufacturers, suppliers or third party providers of services or negative publicity related to members of management. Any of these events could result in decreases in revenues. Further, maintaining, enhancing, promoting and positioning the Company’s brand image may require the Company to make substantial investments in areas such as marketing, store operations, community relations, store graphics and employee training, which could adversely affect the Company’s cash flow. Furthermore, efforts to maintain, enhance or promote the Company’s brand image may ultimately be unsuccessful. These factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s failure to successfully order and manage its inventory to reflect consumer demand in a volatile market and anticipate changing consumer preferences and buying trends could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s success depends upon the Company’s ability to successfully manage the Company’s inventory and to anticipate and respond to product trends and consumer demands in a timely manner. The Company’s products appeal to consumers who are, or could become, RV owners. The preferences of these consumers cannot be predicted with certainty and are subject to change. Further, the retail consumer industry, by its nature, is volatile and sensitive to numerous economic factors, including consumer preferences, competition, market conditions, general economic conditions and other factors outside of the Company’s control. The Company typically orders products well in advance of the following selling season. The extended lead times for many of the Company’s purchases may make it difficult for the Company to respond rapidly to new or changing product trends, increases or decreases in consumer demand or changes in prices. If the Company misjudges either the market for the Company’s products or its consumers’ purchasing habits in the future, the Company’s revenues may decline significantly and the Company may not have sufficient inventory to satisfy consumer demand or sales orders or the Company may be required to discount excess inventory, either of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s same store sales may fluctuate and may not be a meaningful indicator of future performance.

 

The Company’s same store sales may vary from quarter to quarter. A number of factors affect and will continue to affect the Company’s same store sales results, including:

 

  changes or anticipated changes to regulations related to the products the Company offers;
     
  consumer preferences and buying trends;
     
  overall economic trends;
     
  the Company’s ability to identify and respond effectively to local and regional trends and customer preferences;
     
  the Company’s ability to provide quality customer service that will increase its conversion of shoppers into paying customers;
     
  competition in the regional market of a store;
     
  atypical weather patterns;
     
  changes in the Company’s product mix;
     
  changes to local or regional regulations affecting the Company’s stores;
     
  changes in sales of consumer services and plans and retention and renewal rates for the Company’s annually renewing consumer services and plans; and
     
  changes in pricing and average unit sales.

 

An unanticipated decline in revenues or same store sales could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The cyclical nature of the Company’s business has caused its sales and results of operations to fluctuate. These fluctuations may continue in the future, which could result in operating losses during downturns.

 

The RV industry is cyclical and is influenced by many national and regional economic and demographic factors, including:

 

  terms and availability of financing for retailers and consumers;
     
  overall consumer confidence and the level of discretionary consumer spending;
     
  population and employment trends;
     
  income levels; and
     
  general economic conditions, including inflation, deflation and recessions.

 

As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company’s sales and results of operations have fluctuated, and the Company expects that they will continue to fluctuate in the future.

 

The Company’s business is seasonal and this leads to fluctuations in sales and revenues.

 

The Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, variability in revenue, net income and cash flows as a result of annual seasonality in its business. Because the Company’s largest dealership is located in the southern United States, demand for services, protection plans, products and resources generally increases during the winter season when people move south for the winter or vacation in warmer climates, while sales and profits are generally lower during the summer months. In addition, unusually severe weather conditions in some geographic areas may impact demand.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company generated 54% and 56% of its annual revenue in the first and second fiscal quarters, respectively, which include the winter months. The Company incurs additional expenses in the first and second fiscal quarters due to higher purchase volumes, increased staffing in the Company’s retail locations and program costs. If, for any reason, the Company miscalculates the demand for its products or its product mix during the first and second fiscal quarters, the Company’s sales in these quarters could decline, resulting in higher labor costs as a percentage of sales, lower margins and excess inventory, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Due to the Company’s seasonality, the possible adverse impact from other risks associated with its business, including atypical weather, consumer spending levels and general business conditions, is potentially greater if any such risks occur during the Company’s peak sales seasons.

 

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by unfavorable conditions in its local markets, even if those conditions are not prominent nationally.

 

The Company’s performance is subject to local economic, competitive, weather and other conditions prevailing in geographic areas where it operates. Since a large portion of the Company’s sales are generated in Florida, the Company’s results of operations depend substantially on general economic conditions and consumer spending habits in the Southeastern United States. In the event that this geographic area experiences a downturn in economic conditions, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company may not be able to expand geographically and any geographic expansion may not adequately insulate the Company from the adverse effects of local or regional economic conditions.

 

The Company may not be able to satisfy its debt obligations upon the occurrence of a change in control under its Credit Facility.

 

A Change in Control, is an event of default under the Credit Facility. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, M&T will have the right to declare all outstanding obligations under the Credit Facility, immediately due and payable and to terminate the availability of future advances to the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company’s lenders will agree to an amendment of the Credit Facility or a waiver of any such event of default. There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient resources available to satisfy all of its obligations under the Credit Facility if no waiver or amendment is obtained. In the event the Company was unable to satisfy these obligations, it could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s ability to operate and expand its business and to respond to changing business and economic conditions will depend on the availability of adequate capital.

 

As of December 31, 2017, the Company had an existing credit agreement that included a $13.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan Facility”) and $7.0 million of commitments for revolving loans (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, as amended, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). Additionally, the Company also had up to $140.0 million in committed financing under the Floor Plan Facility. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had $9.1 million of term loans outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, net of $0.1 million of unamortized original issue discount, $0.0 million of revolving borrowings outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and $105.0 million in floor plan notes payable outstanding under the Floor Plan Facility, net of $0.2 million of unamortized original issue discount, with $7.0 million of additional borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility and $34.8 million of additional borrowing capacity under the Floor Plan Facility. On March 15, 2018, the Company entered into a $200.0 million facility with M&T Bank, which includes a $175.0 million floor plan facility, a $20.0 million term loan and a $5.0 million line of credit.

 

The operation of the Company’s business, the rate of the Company’s expansion and the Company’s ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions depend on the availability of adequate capital, which in turn depends on cash flow generated by the Company’s business and, if necessary, the availability of equity or debt capital. The Company also requires sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations under its existing debt agreements. The Term Loan Facility required the Company to make monthly principal payments of the outstanding principal amount thereof and $1.9 million and $1.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Additionally, the Company paid total cash interest on its Senior Secured Credit Facilities of $0.6 million and $0.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and the Company paid total floor plan interest expense on its Floor Plan Facility of $3.7 million and $2.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. See “Lazydays’ Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.

 

The Company is dependent to a significant extent on its ability to finance its new and certain of its used RV inventory under the Credit Facility. Floor plan financing arrangements allow the Company to borrow money to purchase new RVs from the manufacturer or used RVs on trade-in or at auction and pay off the loan when the Company sells the financed RV. The Company may need to increase the capacity of its existing Credit Facility in connection with its acquisition of dealerships and overall growth. In the event that the Company is unable to obtain such incremental financing, the Company’s ability to complete acquisitions could be limited.

 

The Company cannot assure you that its cash flow from operations or cash available under its Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet its needs. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations in the future, and if availability under its Credit Facility is not sufficient, the Company may have to obtain additional financing. If the Company obtains additional capital through the issuance of equity, the interests of existing stockholders of the Company will be diluted. If the Company incurs additional indebtedness, such indebtedness may contain significant financial covenants and other negative covenants that may significantly restrict the Company’s ability to operate. The Company cannot assure you that it could obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all.

 

The documentation governing the Company’s Credit Facility contain restrictive covenants that may impair the Company’s ability to access sufficient capital and operate its business.

 

The documentation governing the Company’s Credit Facility contain various provisions that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things:

 

  incur additional indebtedness;
     
  incur certain liens;
     
  consolidate or merge;
     
  alter the business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries;

 

 10 
 

 

  make investments, loans, advances, guarantees and acquisitions;
     
  sell assets, including capital stock of its subsidiaries;
     
  enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions;
     
  pay dividends on capital stock or redeem, repurchase or retire capital stock or certain other indebtedness;
     
  engage in transactions with affiliates; and
     
  enter into agreements restricting its subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends.

 

In addition, the restrictive covenants contained in the documentation governing the Credit Facility require the Company to maintain specified financial ratios. See “Lazydays’ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. The Company’s ability to comply with those financial ratios may be affected by events beyond its control, and its failure to comply with these ratios could result in an event of default.

 

The restrictive covenants contained in the documentation governing the Credit Facility may affect the Company’s ability to operate and finance its business as it deems appropriate. The Company’s inability to meet obligations as they become due or to comply with various financial covenants contained in the instruments governing its current or future indebtedness could constitute an event of default under the instruments governing the Company’s indebtedness.

 

If there were an event of default under the instruments governing the Company’s indebtedness, the holders of the affected indebtedness could declare all of the affected indebtedness immediately due and payable, which, in turn, could cause the acceleration of the maturity of all of the Company’s other indebtedness. The Company may not have sufficient funds available, or the Company may not have access to sufficient capital from other sources, to repay any accelerated debt. Even if the Company could obtain additional financing, the terms of such financing may not be favorable to the Company. In addition, substantially all of the Company’s assets are subject to liens securing the obligations under the Credit Facility. If amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility were accelerated, the Company’s lenders could foreclose on these liens and the Company could lose substantially all of its assets. Any event of default under the instruments governing the Company’s indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Natural disasters, whether or not caused by climate change, unusual weather conditions, epidemic outbreaks, terrorist acts and political events could disrupt business and result in lower sales and otherwise adversely affect the Company’s financial performance.

 

The occurrence of one or more natural disasters, such as tornadoes, hurricanes, fires, floods, hail storms and earthquakes, unusual weather conditions, epidemic outbreaks such as Ebola, Zika virus or measles, terrorist attacks or disruptive political events in certain regions where the Company’s stores are located could adversely affect the Company’s business and result in lower sales. Severe weather, such as heavy snowfall or extreme temperatures, may discourage or restrict customers in a particular region from traveling to the Company’s stores or utilizing the Company’s products, thereby reducing the Company’s sales and profitability. Natural disasters including tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, hail storms and earthquakes may damage the Company’s stores or other operations, which may materially adversely affect the Company’s financial results. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company depends on its relationships with third party providers of services, protection plans, products and resources and a disruption of these relationships or of these providers’ operations could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.

 

The Company’s business depends in part on developing and maintaining productive relationships with third party providers of services, protection plans, products and resources that the Company markets to its customers. Additionally, the Company relies on certain third party providers to support its services, protection plans, products and resources, including insurance carriers for the Company’s property and casualty insurance and extended service contracts, banks and captive financing companies for vehicle financing and refinancing. The Company cannot accurately predict when, or the extent to which, it will experience any disruption in the supply of products from its vendors or services from its third party providers. Any such disruption could negatively impact the Company’s ability to market and sell its services, protection plans, products and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

 11 
 

 

With respect to the insurance programs that the Company offers, the Company is dependent on the insurance carriers that underwrite the insurance to obtain appropriate regulatory approvals and maintain compliance with insurance regulations. If such carriers do not obtain appropriate state regulatory approvals or comply with such changing regulations, the Company may be required to use an alternative carrier or change its insurance products or cease marketing certain insurance related products in certain states, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If the Company is required to use an alternative insurance carrier or change its insurance related products, it may materially increase the time required to bring an insurance related product to market. Any disruption in the Company’s service offerings could harm the Company’s reputation and result in customer dissatisfaction.

 

Additionally, the Company provides financing to qualified customers through a number of third party financing providers. If one or more of these third party providers ceases to provide financing to the Company’s customers, provides financing to fewer customers or no longer provides financing on competitive terms, or if the Company is unable to replace the current third party providers upon the occurrence of one or more of the foregoing events, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

A portion of the Company’s revenue is from financing, insurance and extended service contracts, which depend on third party lenders and insurance companies. The Company cannot assure you that third party lending institutions will continue to provide financing for RV purchases.

 

A portion of the Company’s revenue comes from the fees the Company receives from lending institutions and insurance companies for arranging financing and insurance coverage for the Company’s customers. The lending institution pays the Company a fee for each loan that it arranges. If these lenders were to lend to the Company’s customers directly rather than through the Company, the Company would not receive a fee. In addition, if customers prepay financing the Company arranged within a specified period (generally within six months of making the loan), the Company is required to rebate (or “chargeback”) all or a portion of the commissions paid to the Company by the lending institution. The Company’s revenues from financing fees and vehicle service contract fees are recorded net of a reserve for estimated future chargebacks based on historical operating results. Lending institutions may change the criteria or terms they use to make loan decisions, which could reduce the number of customers for whom the Company can arrange financing, or may elect to not continue to provide these products with respect to RVs. The Company’s customers may also use the internet or other electronic methods to find financing alternatives. If any of these events occur, the Company could lose a significant portion of its income and profit.

 

Furthermore, new and used vehicles may be sold and financed through retail installment sales contracts entered into between the Company and third-party purchasers. Prior to entering into a retail installment sales contract with a third-party purchaser, the Company typically has a commitment from a third-party lender for the assignment of such retail installment sales contract, subject to final review, approval and verification of the retail installment sales contract, related documentation and the information contained therein. Retail installment sales contracts are typically assigned by the Company to third-party lenders simultaneously with the execution of the retail installment sales contracts. Contracts in transit represent amounts due from third-party lenders from whom pre-arranged assignment agreements have been determined, and to whom the retail installment sales contract have been assigned. The Company recognizes revenue when the applicable new or used vehicle is delivered and the Company has assigned the retail installment sales contract to a third-party lender and collectability is reasonably assured. Funding from the third-party lender is provided upon receipt, final review, approval and verification of the retail installment sales contract, related documentation and the information contained therein. Retail installment sales contracts are typically funded within ten days of the initial approval of the retail installment sales contract by the third-party lender. Contracts in transit are included in current assets in the Company’s consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus and totaled $15.5 million as of December 31, 2017 and $9.4 million as of December 31, 2016. Any defaults on these retail installment sales contracts could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

If the Company is unable to retain senior executives and attract and retain other qualified employees, the Company’s business might be adversely affected.

 

The Company’s success depends in part on its ability to attract, hire, train and retain qualified managerial, sales and marketing personnel. Competition for these types of personnel is high. The Company may be unsuccessful in attracting and retaining the personnel it requires to conduct its operations successfully and, in such an event, the Company’s business could be materially and adversely affected. The Company’s success also depends to a significant extent on the continued service and performance of the Company’s senior management team, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer William Murnane. The loss of any member of the Company’s senior management team could impair its ability to execute its business plan and could therefore have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company does not currently maintain key man life insurance policies on any member of its senior management team or other key employees. The Company entered into employment agreements with William Murnane, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Maura Berney, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, which became effective upon the consummation of the Mergers. The Company has not entered into any other employment agreements with other persons.

 

The Company’s business depends on its ability to meet its labor needs.

 

The Company’s success depends in part upon its ability to attract, motivate and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees, including market managers, general managers, sales managers, department managers and sales associates. Qualified individuals of the requisite caliber may be scarce in some areas. If the Company is unable to hire and retain sales associates capable of consistently providing a high level of customer service, as demonstrated by, among other qualities, their enthusiasm for the Company’s culture and knowledge of the Company’s products, the Company’s business could be materially adversely affected. Although none of the Company’s employees is currently covered by collective bargaining agreements, the Company’s employees may elect to be represented by labor unions in the future. If Company employees were to so elect, the Company’s labor costs could increase. Additionally, competition for qualified employees could require the Company to pay higher wages to attract the required number of employees. An inability to recruit and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees in the future may delay the planned openings of new stores. Any such delays, any material increases in employee turnover rates at existing stores or any increases in labor costs could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

The Company primarily leases its retail locations. If the Company is unable to maintain those leases or locate alternative sites for retail locations in its target markets and on terms that are acceptable to it, the Company’s revenues and profitability could be adversely affected.

 

The Company leases most of the real properties where it has operations, including, as of December 31, 2017, four of the five Lazydays retail locations in three states. The Company’s leases generally provide for fixed monthly rentals with escalation clauses and range from five to twenty years. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain its existing retail locations as leases expire, extend the leases or be able to locate alternative sites in its target markets and on favorable terms. Any failure to maintain its existing retail locations, extend the leases or locate alternative sites on favorable or acceptable terms could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s business is subject to numerous federal, state and local regulations.

 

The Company’s operations are subject to varying degrees of federal, state and local regulation, including regulations with respect to the Company’s RV sales, RV financing, marketing, direct mail, roadside assistance programs and insurance activities. New regulatory efforts may be proposed from time to time that may affect the way the Company operates its businesses. For example, in the past a principal source of leads for the Company’s direct response marketing efforts was new vehicle registrations provided by motor vehicle departments in various states. Currently, all states restrict access to motor vehicle registration information.

 

The Company is also subject to federal and state consumer protection and unfair trade practice laws and regulations relating to the sale, transportation and marketing of motor vehicles. Federal, state and local laws and regulations also impose upon vehicle operators various restrictions on the weight, length and width of motor vehicles that may be operated in certain jurisdictions or on certain roadways. Certain jurisdictions also prohibit the sale of vehicles exceeding length restrictions. Federal and state authorities also have various environmental control standards relating to air, water, noise pollution and hazardous waste generation and disposal which affect the Company’s business and operations.

 

Further, certain federal and state laws and regulations affect the Company’s activities. Areas of the Company’s business affected by such laws and regulations include, but are not limited to, labor, advertising, consumer protection, real estate, promotions, quality of services, intellectual property, tax, import and export, anti-corruption, anti- competition, environmental, health and safety. Compliance with these laws and others may be onerous and costly, at times, and may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction which further complicates compliance efforts.

 

 13 
 

 

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which was signed into law on July 21, 2010, established the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”), an independent federal agency funded by the United States Federal Reserve with broad regulatory powers and limited oversight from the United States Congress. Although automotive dealers are generally excluded, the Dodd-Frank Act could lead to additional, indirect regulation of automotive dealers, in particular, their sale and marketing of finance and insurance products, through its regulation of automotive finance companies and other financial institutions. In March 2013, the CFPB issued supervisory guidance highlighting its concern that the practice of automotive dealers being compensated for arranging customer financing through discretionary markup of wholesale rates offered by financial institutions (“dealer markup”) results in a significant risk of pricing disparity in violation of The Equal Credit Opportunity Act (the “ECOA”). The CFPB recommended that financial institutions under its jurisdiction take steps to address compliance with the ECOA, which may include imposing controls on dealer markup, monitoring and addressing the effects of dealer markup policies, and eliminating dealer discretion to markup buy rates and fairly compensating dealers using a different mechanism.

 

In addition, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the “Affordable Care Act”), which was signed into law on March 23, 2010, may increase the Company’s annual employee health care costs that it funds and has increased the Company’s cost of compliance and compliance risk related to offering health care benefits. Efforts to modify, repeal or otherwise invalidate all, or certain provisions of, the Affordable Care Act and/or adopt a replacement healthcare reform law may impact the Company’s employee healthcare costs. At this time, there is uncertainty concerning whether the Affordable Care Act will be repealed or what requirements will be included in a new law, if enacted. If health care costs rise, the Company may experience increased operating costs, which may adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Furthermore, the Company’s property and casualty insurance programs that it offers through third party insurance carriers are subject to state laws and regulations governing the business of insurance, including, without limitation, laws and regulations governing the administration, underwriting, marketing, solicitation or sale of insurance products. The Company’s third party insurance carriers are required to apply for, renew, and maintain licenses issued by state, federal or foreign regulatory authorities. Such regulatory authorities have relatively broad discretion to grant, renew and revoke such licenses. Accordingly, any failure by such parties to comply with the then current licensing requirements, which may include any determination of financial instability by such regulatory authorities, could result in such regulatory authorities denying third party insurance carriers’ initial or renewal applications for such licenses, modifying the terms of licenses or revoking licenses that they currently possess, which could severely inhibit the Company’s ability to market these insurance products. Additionally, certain state laws and regulations govern the form and content of certain disclosures that must be made in connection with the sale, advertising or offer of any insurance program to a consumer. The Company reviews all marketing materials it disseminates to the public for compliance with applicable insurance regulations. The Company is required to maintain certain licenses and approvals in order to market insurance products.

 

The Company has instituted various comprehensive policies and procedures to address compliance. However, there can be no assurance that employees, contractors, vendors or the Company’s agents will not violate such laws and regulations or the Company’s policies and procedures.

 

Regulations applicable to the sale of extended service contracts could materially impact the Company’s business and results of operations.

 

The Company offers extended service contracts that may be purchased as a supplement to the original purchaser’s warranty. These products are subject to complex federal and state laws and regulations. There can be no assurance that regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions in which these products are offered will not seek to regulate or restrict these products. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could result in fines or other penalties including orders by state regulators to discontinue sales of the warranty products in one or more jurisdictions. Such a result could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

The Company currently transfers the majority of the administration and liability obligations associated with these extended service contracts to a third party upon purchase by the customer. State laws and regulations, however, may limit or condition the Company’s ability to transfer these administration and liability obligations to third parties, which could in turn impact the way revenue is recognized from these products. Failure to comply with these laws could result in fines or other penalties, including orders by state regulators to discontinue sales of these product offerings as currently structured. Such a result could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

If state dealer laws are repealed or weakened, the Company’s dealerships will be more susceptible to termination, non-renewal or renegotiation of dealer agreements.

 

State dealer laws generally provide that a manufacturer may not terminate or refuse to renew a dealer agreement unless it has first provided the dealer with written notice setting forth good cause and stating the grounds for termination or non-renewal. Some state dealer laws allow dealers to file protests or petitions or attempt to comply with the manufacturer’s criteria within a specified notice period to avoid the termination or non-renewal. Manufacturers have been lobbying and continue to lobby for the repeal or revision of state dealer laws. Although the lobbying efforts have been unsuccessful to date, if dealer laws are repealed in the states in which the Company operates, manufacturers may be able to terminate the Company’s dealer agreements without providing advance notice, an opportunity to cure or a showing of good cause. Without the protection of state dealer laws, it may also be more difficult for the Company to renew its dealer agreements upon expiration.

 

The ability of a manufacturer to grant additional dealer agreements is based on a number of factors which the Company cannot control. If manufacturers grant new dealer agreements in areas near the Company’s existing markets, such new dealer agreements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s failure to comply with certain environmental regulations could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s operations involve the use, handling, storage and contracting for recycling and/or disposal of materials such as motor oil and filters, transmission fluids, antifreeze, refrigerants, paints, thinners, batteries, cleaning products, lubricants, degreasing agents, tires and propane. Consequently, the Company’s business is subject to federal, state and local requirements that regulate the environment and public health and safety. The Company may incur significant costs to comply with such requirements. The Company’s failure to comply with these regulations and requirements could cause the Company to become subject to fines and penalties or otherwise have an adverse impact on the Company’s business. In addition, the Company has indemnified certain of its landlords for any hazardous waste which may be found on or about property the Company leases. If any such hazardous waste were to be found on property that the Company occupies, a significant claim giving rise to the Company’s indemnity obligation could have a negative effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Climate change legislation or regulations restricting emission of “greenhouse gases” could result in increased operating costs and reduced demand for the RVs the Company sells.

 

The United States Environmental Protection Agency has adopted rules under existing provisions of the federal Clean Air Act that require a reduction in emissions of greenhouse gases from motor vehicles. The adoption of any laws or regulations requiring significant increases in fuel economy requirements or new federal or state restrictions on vehicles and automotive fuels in the United States could adversely affect demand for those vehicles and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company may be unable to enforce its intellectual property rights and the Company may be accused of infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company owns a variety of registered trademarks and service marks. The Company believes that its trademarks have significant value and are important to its marketing efforts. If the Company is unable to continue to protect the trademarks and service marks for its proprietary brands, if such marks become generic or if third parties adopt marks similar to the Company’s marks, the Company’s ability to differentiate its products and services may be diminished. In the event that the Company’s trademarks or service marks are successfully challenged by third parties, the Company could lose brand recognition and be forced to devote additional resources to advertising and marketing new brands for its products.

 

From time to time, the Company may be compelled to protect its intellectual property, which may involve litigation. Such litigation may be time-consuming, expensive and distract the Company’s management from running the day-to-day operations of its business, and could result in the impairment or loss of the involved intellectual property. There is no guarantee that the steps the Company takes to protect its intellectual property, including litigation when necessary, will be successful. The loss or reduction of any of the Company’s significant intellectual property rights could diminish the Company’s ability to distinguish its products from competitors’ products and retain its market share for its proprietary products. The Company’s inability to effectively protect the Company’s proprietary intellectual property rights could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

 15 
 

 

Other parties also may claim that the Company infringes on their proprietary rights. Such claims, whether or not meritorious, may result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources, injunctions against the Company or the payment of damages. These claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

If the Company is unable to maintain or upgrade its information technology systems or if the Company is unable to convert to alternate systems in an efficient and timely manner, the Company’s operations may be disrupted or become less efficient.

 

The Company depends on a variety of information technology systems for the efficient operation of its business. The Company relies on hardware, telecommunications and software vendors to maintain and periodically upgrade many of these information technology systems so that the Company can continue to operate its business. Various components of the Company’s information technology systems, including hardware, networks, and software, are licensed to the Company by third party vendors. The Company relies extensively on its information technology systems to process transactions, summarize results and efficiently manage its business. Additionally, because the Company accepts debit and credit cards for payment, the Company is subject to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (the “PCI Standard”), issued by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council. The PCI Standard contains various compliance guidelines with respect to the Company’s security surrounding the physical and electronic storage, processing and transmission of cardholder data. The Company is currently in compliance with the PCI Standard, however, complying with the PCI Standard and implementing related procedures, technology and information security measures requires significant resources and ongoing attention to compliance. Costs and potential problems and interruptions associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems and technology such as those necessary to maintain compliance with the PCI Standard or with respect to maintenance or support of existing systems could also disrupt or reduce the efficiency of the Company’s operations. Any material interruptions or failures in the Company’s payment-related systems could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Any disruptions to the Company’s information technology systems or breaches of the Company’s network security could interrupt its operations, compromise its reputation, expose it to litigation, government enforcement actions and costly response measures and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company relies on the integrity, security and successful functioning of its information technology systems and network infrastructure across the Company’s operations. The Company uses information technology systems to, among other things, support its consumer services and plans, manage procurement, manage its supply chain, track inventory information at its retail locations, communicate customer information and aggregate daily sales, margin and promotional information. The Company also uses information systems to report and audit its operational results.

 

In connection with sales, the Company transmits encrypted confidential credit and debit card information. Although the Company is currently in compliance with the PCI Standard, there can be no assurance that in the future the Company will be able to remain compliant with the PCI Standard or other industry recommended or contractually required practices. Even if the Company continues to be compliant with such standards, it still may not be able to prevent security breaches.

 

The Company also has access to, collects or maintains private or confidential information regarding its customers, associates and suppliers, as well as the Company’s business. The protection of the Company’s customer, associate, supplier and company data is critical to the Company. The regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with the frequent imposition of new and constantly changing requirements across the Company’s business and operations. In addition, the Company’s customers have a high expectation that the Company will adequately protect their personal information from cyber-attacks and other security breaches. The Company has procedures in place to safeguard its customer’s data and information. However, a significant breach of customer, employee, supplier, or company data could attract a substantial amount of negative media attention, damage the Company’s relationships with its customers and suppliers, harm the Company’s reputation and result in lost sales, fines and/or lawsuits.

 

 16 
 

 

An increasingly significant portion of the Company’s sales depends on the continuing operation of its information technology and communications systems, including but not limited to its point-of-sale system and its credit card processing systems. The Company’s information technology, communication systems and electronic data may be vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, acts of war or terrorist attacks, floods, fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, power loss and outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, loss of data, unauthorized data breaches, usage errors by the Company’s associates or the Company’s contractors or other attempts to harm the Company’s systems, including cyber-security attacks, hacking by third parties, computer viruses or other breaches of cardholder data. Some of the Company’s information technology and communication systems are not fully redundant and the Company’s disaster recovery planning cannot account for all eventualities. The occurrence of a natural disaster, intentional sabotage or other unanticipated problems could result in lengthy interruptions in the Company’s information technology and communications systems. Any errors or vulnerabilities in the Company’s information technology and communications systems, or damage to or failure of its information technology and communications systems, could result in interruptions in the Company’s services and non-compliance with certain regulations or expose the Company to risk of litigation and liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Increases in the minimum wage could adversely affect the Company’s financial results.

 

From time to time, legislative proposals are made to increase the federal minimum wage in the United States, as well as the minimum wage in a number of individual states. As federal or state minimum wage rates increase, the Company may be required to increase not only the wage rates of the Company’s minimum wage employees, but also the wages paid to the Company’s other hourly employees as well. Any increase in the cost of the Company’s labor could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operating costs, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company may be subject to product liability claims if people or property are harmed by the products the Company sells.

 

Some of the products the Company sells may expose the Company to product liability claims relating to personal injury, death, or environmental or property damage, and may require product recalls or other actions. Although the Company maintains liability insurance, the Company cannot be certain that its insurance coverage will be adequate for liabilities actually incurred or that insurance will continue to be available to the Company on economically reasonable terms, or at all. In addition, some of the Company’s agreements with its vendors and sellers do not indemnify the Company from losses attributable to product liability. In addition, even if a product liability claim is not successful or is not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding a product recall or any assertion that the products sold by the Company caused property damage or personal injury could damage the Company’s brand image and its reputation with existing and potential consumers and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company may be named in litigation, which may result in substantial costs and reputational harm and divert management’s attention and resources.

 

The Company faces legal risks in its business, including claims from disputes with its employees and its former employees and claims associated with general commercial disputes, product liability and other matters. Risks associated with legal liability often are difficult to assess or quantify and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time. While the Company maintains director and officer insurance, as well as general and product liability insurance, the amount of insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover a claim and the continued availability of this insurance cannot be assured. Regardless of their subject matter or merits, class action lawsuits may result in significant cost to the Company, which costs may not be covered by insurance, may divert the attention of management or may otherwise have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, brand image, financial condition and results of operations. Negative publicity from litigation, whether or not resulting in a substantial cost to the Company, could materially damage the Company’s reputation. The Company may in the future be the target of litigation and any such litigation may result in substantial costs and reputational harm and divert management’s attention and resources. Costs, harm to the Company’s reputation and diversion of management’s attention and resources could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company’s risk management policies and procedures may not be fully effective in achieving their purposes.

 

The Company’s policies, procedures, controls and oversight to monitor and manage its enterprise risks may not be fully effective in achieving their purpose and may leave the Company exposed to identified or unidentified risks. Past or future misconduct by the Company’s employees or vendors could result in violations of law by the Company, regulatory sanctions and/or serious reputational or financial harm to the Company. The Company monitors its policies, procedures and controls; however, there can be no assurance that its policies, procedures and controls will be sufficient to prevent all forms of misconduct. The Company reviews its compensation policies and practices as part of the Company’s overall enterprise risk management program, but it is possible that its compensation policies could incentivize inappropriate risk taking or misconduct. If such inappropriate risks or misconduct occurs, it is possible that it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

 17 
 

 

The Company could incur asset impairment charges for goodwill, intangible assets or other long-lived assets.

 

The Company has a significant amount of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets. At least annually, the Company reviews goodwill, trademarks and tradenames for impairment. Long-lived assets, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill are also reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable from future cash flows. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business or other factors. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The Company’s determination of future cash flows, future recoverability and fair value of the Company’s long-lived assets includes significant estimates and assumptions. Changes in those estimates and/or assumptions or lower than anticipated future financial performance may result in the identification of an impaired asset and a non-cash impairment charge, which could be material. Any such charge could adversely affect the Company.

 

Risks Related to the Business Combination and Our Stock

 

Future resales of the shares of common stock of the Company issued to the stockholders and the investors in the PIPE Investment may cause the market price of the Company’s securities to drop significantly, even if the Company’s business is doing well.

 

Under the merger agreement, the stockholders, the optionholders, and the bonus payment recipients received, among other things, an aggregate of: (i) 2,857,143 shares of Company common stock; and (ii) $86.741 million. Pursuant to the merger agreement, certain of the stockholders will be restricted from selling any of the Company common stock that they receive as a result of the Transaction Merger during the nine month period after the closing date of the Mergers, subject to certain exceptions.

 

Subject to these restrictions, the Company has entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which such stockholders have been granted certain demand and “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to their securities. Additionally, the investors in the PIPE Investment have entered into a registration rights agreement granting them certain registration rights.

 

Furthermore, the stockholders and investors in the PIPE Investment may sell Company common stock pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under a registration statement. In these cases, the resales must meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule, including, because Andina was a shell company, waiting until one year after the Company’s filing with the SEC of its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 21, 2018.

 

Upon expiration of the applicable lock-up periods (with respect to stockholders who have executed lock-up agreements), and upon effectiveness of any registration statement the Company files pursuant to the above-referenced registration rights or upon satisfaction of the requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the stockholders and investors in the PIPE Investment may sell large amounts of Company common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which could have the effect of increasing the volatility in the Company’s stock price or putting significant downward pressure on the price of the Company’s common stock.

 

Nasdaq may delist the Company’s common stock on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in the Company’s securities and subject the Company to additional trading restrictions.

 

The Company’s common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain the listing of its common stock in the future.

 

If the Company’s common stock is delisted from trading on Nasdaq, the Company could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

 

  a limited availability of market quotations for its securities;
     
  a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for the Company; and
     
  a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

 

 18 
 

 

The Company’s ability to request indemnification from the stockholders for damages arising out of the business combination are limited in certain instances to those claims where damages exceed $1.0 million and is limited to the cash and shares placed in escrow.

 

At the closing of the business combination, (i) an aggregate of $4.25 million of cash to be paid as part of the merger consideration and (ii) 142,857 of the Company common stock to be issued as part of the merger consideration (“Indemnity Escrow Fund”) was deposited in escrow to provide a fund for payment to the Company with respect to its post-closing rights to indemnification under the merger agreement for breaches of representations, warranties and covenants by Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. Claims for indemnification may only be asserted (subject to certain exceptions) by the Company once the damages incurred by the Company exceed a $1.0 million deductible, in which event the amount payable from the Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be the amount in excess of the deductible. Accordingly, it is possible that the Company will not be entitled to indemnification even if Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. is found to have breached certain of its representations, warranties and covenants contained in the merger agreement if such breaches would only result in damages to the Company of less than $1.0 million. Also, subject to certain limited exceptions, the Company’s right to seek indemnification is limited to the Indemnity Escrow Fund and such right expires one year from the closing date of the merger. At such time, the Indemnity Escrow Fund will be released from the escrow to the stockholders, the optionholders and the bonus payment recipients, less amounts previously applied in satisfaction of or reserved with respect to indemnification claims, if any, that are made prior to that date.

 

The Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock, warrants and options may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

 

After the close of the Merger, we had outstanding (i) stock options issued to the board of directors and employees to purchase 3,673,544 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $11.10 and $10.40, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,339,499 shares of common stock that were issued in the PIPE Investment, (iii) warrants to purchase 2,503,937 shares of our common stock at $11.50 per share issued in the PIPE Investment, (iv) warrants to purchase 2,155,000 shares of our common stock at $11.50 per share held by Andina public shareholders, (v) 5,962,733 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the 600,000 Series A Preferred Stock of Holdco, and (vi) 657,142 shares underlying unit purchase options. Furthermore, we may issue additional equity awards under our 2018 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The sale, or even the possibility of sale, of the shares underlying the Warrants and options and the shares issuable under our incentive plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the common stock or on our ability to obtain future financing. If and to the extent these Warrants and options are exercised, you may experience dilution to your holdings.

 

We are an “emerging growth company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, and we will take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies. These exemptions include not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Investors may find our common stock less attractive because we rely, or may rely, on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, the price of our common stock may be reduced, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the price of our common stock may be more volatile.

 

In addition, under the JOBS Act, “emerging growth companies” can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, we will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies.”

 

We could remain an “emerging growth company” until the last day of 2020, although a variety of circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier. For as long as we take advantage of the reduced reporting obligations, the information that we provide stockholders may be different from information provided by other public companies.

The conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Company common stock may dilute the value for the other holders of Company common stock.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into Company common stock. As a result of the conversion of any issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, the existing holders of Company common stock will own a smaller percentage of the outstanding Company common stock. Further, additional Company common stock may be issuable pursuant to certain other features of the Series A Preferred Stock, with such issuances being further dilutive to existing holders of Company common stock.

 

If Series A Preferred Stock is converted into Company common stock, holders of such converted Company common stock will be entitled to the same dividend and distribution rights as other holders of Company common stock. As such, another dilutive effect resulting from the conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be a dilution to dividends and distributions receivable on account of Company common stock.

 

The holders of Series A Preferred Stock own a large portion of the voting power of the Company common stock and have the right to nominate two members to the Company’s board of directors. As a result, these holders may influence the composition of the board of directors of the Company and future actions taken by the board of directors of the Company.

 

The purchasers of the Series A Preferred Stock in the PIPE Investment are entitled to vote upon all matters upon which holders of the Company common stock have the right to vote and are entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of full shares of Company common stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock could be converted at the then applicable conversion rate. Accordingly, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will hold approximately 41.3% of the voting power of the Company on an as-converted basis (assuming that no holders of the Series A Preferred Shares exercise their conversion rights). As a result, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may have the ability to influence future actions by the Company requiring stockholder approval.

 

Further, the Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock provides that the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have the right to nominate for election two individuals to the Company’s board of directors. As a result, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be able influence the composition of the board and, in turn, potentially influence and impact future actions taken by the board of directors of the Company.

 

The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have certain rights that may not allow the Company to take certain actions.

 

Pursuant to the certificate of designations governing the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock must consent to the Company taking certain actions, including among others, the increase in the number of directors constituting the Company’s board above eight members, the incurrence of certain indebtedness and the sale of certain assets. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are not obligated to consent to any specific action and there can be no assurance that the holders will consent to any action the Company’s board determines is in the best interests of its stockholders as a whole.

 

Additionally, the purchasers of the Series A Preferred Stock have been granted a right of first refusal on certain debt financings. Pursuant to this right, the purchasers will have 15 business days to determine whether they want to undertake a covered debt financing. This may delay the Company’s ability to undertake a debt financing and may cause certain third parties to be less willing to engage in any debt financing with the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

The Company operates Recreation Vehicle (“RV”) dealerships and offers a comprehensive portfolio of products and services for RV owners and outdoor enthusiasts. The Company generates revenue by providing RV owners and outdoor enthusiasts a full spectrum of products: RV sales, RV-repair and services, financing and insurance products, third-party protection plans, after-market parts and accessories, RV rentals and RV camping. The Company provides these offerings through its Lazydays branded dealerships. Lazydays is known nationally as The RV AuthorityTM , a registered trademark that has been consistently used by the Company in its marketing and branding communications since 2013.

 

The Company believes, based on industry research and management’s estimates, it operates one of the world’s largest RV dealerships, measured in terms of on-site inventory, located on 126 acres outside Tampa, FL. The Company also operates RV dealerships in Tucson, AZ and three cities in Colorado, Loveland, Denver and Longmont. Lazydays offers the largest selection of RV brands in the nation featuring more than 2,500 new and pre-owned RVs. The Company has over 300 service bays across all locations and has RV parts and accessories stores at all locations. Lazydays also has RV rental fleets in all three markets and availability to two on-site campgrounds with over 700 RV campsites. The Company welcomes over 500,000 visitors to its dealership locations annually, and employs over 700 people at the five facilities. The Company’s dealership locations are staffed with knowledgeable local team members, providing customers access to extensive RV expertise. The Company believes its dealership locations are strategically located in key RV markets. Based on information collected by the Company from reports prepared by Statistical Surveys, these key RV markets (Florida, Colorado and Arizona) account for a significant portion of new RV units sold on an annual basis in the U.S. The Company’s dealerships in these key markets attract customers from all states, except Hawaii.

 

The Company attracts new customers primarily through Lazydays dealership locations as well as digital and traditional marketing efforts. Once the Company acquires customers through a transaction, those customers become part of the Company’s customer database where the Company leverages customized CRM tools and analytics to actively engage, market and sell its products and services.

 

Company Strengths

 

The Iconic Brand. With over forty years of history dating back to 1976, Lazydays is an iconic, industry leading brand that is synonymous with the RV lifestyle and is known nationally as the RV Authority TM , a registered trademark that has been consistently used by the Company in its marketing and branding communications since 2013. Based on a research report prepared by Russell Research in November / December 2017, Lazydays is the second most well-known R.V. dealership brand among a national audience of non-Lazydays customers surveyed. According to the report, over 85% of Lazydays customers and over 80% of prospective customers surveyed believe that Lazydays is among the category leaders in the industry. The Company’s consistent quality, breadth and depth of offerings, as well as its comprehensive range of RV lifestyle resources, have resulted in the Company’s customers having adoring loyalty to and lasting trust in the Company’s brands.

 

Comprehensive Portfolio of Products, Services and Protection Plans. The Company is a provider of a comprehensive portfolio of products, services, third-party protection plans and resources for RV enthusiasts. The Company offers more than 40,000 products and services through Lazydays dealership locations. The Company’s offerings are based on 41 years of experience and feedback from RV enthusiasts.

 

Customer Experience. Lazydays believes it has built its reputation on providing an outstanding customer experience with exceptional service and product expertise. One of the Company’s primary goals is to create “Customers for Life” by offering a unique purchasing experience that combines a large selection of RV inventory, the Company’s unique scenic facilities with multiple amenities and its customer focused, process-oriented approach to servicing the customer. Building a welcoming atmosphere that caters to the RV enthusiast community is an intangible element critical to the Company’s success, and the Company’s philosophy is thoroughly ingrained in and continually reinforced throughout its corporate culture at every level. As per a research report prepared by Russell Research in November / December 2017, over 70% of Lazydays customers and over 60% of prospective customers surveyed strongly agree that Lazydays provides a high quality customer experience. The Company believes that its customer-focused business model has resulted in a loyal, stable and growing customer base (as evidenced by the Company’s increase in RV unit deliveries 6,977 in 2016 to 7,391 in 2017) as well as a strong reputation within the RV community. Lazydays’ target customers are RV enthusiasts who are seeking a lifestyle centered around the RV.

Employee Service and Commitment. Lazydays has been recognized as a “Top 50 RV Dealer” by RVBusiness and as one of Tampa Bay’s “Top Work Places.” Lazydays believes its position as a top-rated dealer and workplace has been cultivated over decades, is very difficult to replicate and is a significant competitive advantage.

 

In 2005, Lazydays’ employees started the Lazydays Employee Foundation (the “Foundation”), a non-profit organization focused on making a positive impact in the lives of at-risk children. The Foundation is run exclusively by employees as volunteers and members of the Foundation’s board of directors, and their mission is to measurably change the lives of children by instilling hope, inspiring dreams and empowering them with education. The Foundation has donated more than $1.2 million to help disadvantaged children in Florida, Arizona and Colorado. The Company employees form “Dream Teams” of volunteers to lend hands on building projects, perform repair work for group homes or homeless shelters, cook and feed the needy, and engage in life enriching activities with at risk youth. The Foundation received the WEDU Be More…Brilliant Innovation Award, Be More…Relevant Best Use of Video Award, and the Be More…Encouraged Judge’s Choice Award , the 2016 Olin Mott Golden Heart award and was recognized with A Kid’s Place Guardian Angel Award. In 2017, the Foundation was awarded the distinguished Arthur J. Decio Humanitarian Award by Ally Financial Inc. for outstanding civil and community charity outreach.

 

Leading Market Position and Scale. Lazydays believes it is one of the largest RV retailers in the United States. As per a research report prepared by Russell Research in November / December 2017, Lazydays is the second most well-known RV brand among the national audience. The Company’s scale and its long-term stability make it attractive to the Company’s original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), suppliers, financiers and business partners. The strong relationship with OEMs and suppliers enables the Company to negotiate attractive product pricing and availability. The Company also aligns with its OEMs on product development in which the Company leverages its customer base to provide feedback on new products. The Company’s scale and strong relationship with its financing and insurance partners enables it to offer extensive financing products and insurance plans that fit almost every customer’s needs.

 

Consistent Processes and Procedures. Lazydays utilizes a system of process documentation and implementation called the “Lazydays Way.” Lazydays believes that the Lazydays Way allows it to implement and maintain very efficient and consistent operating procedures across all of its dealerships.

 

Variable Cost Structure and Capital Efficient Model. Lazydays’ decentralized and flat management structure coupled with incentive programs focused on profitability have allowed Lazydays to achieve a highly variable cost structure. The Company’s digital marketing and analytics capabilities provides it with significant flexibility and meaningfully improves its marketing productivity and efficiency via targeted marketing programs. The Company believes its operating model leads to strong and stable margins through economic cycles, resulting in what it believes to be high cash flow generation, low capital expenditure requirements and strong returns on invested capital.

 

Experienced Team. Lazydays’ management team has extensive dealership and industry experience. The Company offers highly competitive compensation tightly tied to performance, which has allowed the Company to attract and retain its highly capable team.

 

Lazydays Offerings

 

New and Used Vehicles

 

New Vehicles: Lazydays offers a comprehensive selection of new RVs across almost the entire range of price points, classes and floor plans, from entry level travel trailers to Class A diesel pushers, at its dealership locations and on its website. Lazydays has formed strategic alliances with all leading RV manufacturers. The core brands that the Company sells, representing 89% of the new vehicles that were sold by the Company in 2017, are manufactured by Thor Industries, Winnebago Industries, Forest River, Inc., and Tiffin Motorhomes.

 

Used Vehicles: Lazydays sells a comprehensive selection of used RVs at its dealership locations. The primary source of used RVs is through trade-ins associated with the sale of new and used RVs. Lazydays is also very active in the used RV market and its extensive RV knowledge and experience allows Lazydays to buy used RVs at attractive prices. Used RVs are generally reconditioned in the Company’s service departments prior to sale. Used RVs that do not meet the Company’s standards for retail sale are wholesaled.

 

 24 
 

 

Dealership Finance and Insurance

 

Vehicle financing: Lazydays arranges for financing for vehicle purchases through third-party finance sources in exchange for a commission payable to it. Lazydays does not directly finance its customers’ purchases, and its exposure to loss in connection with these financing arrangements generally is limited to the commissions that it receives. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company arranged financing transactions for a majority of the total number of new and used units sold by it.

 

Protection Plans: Lazydays offers a variety of third-party protection plans and services to the purchasers of its RVs as part of the delivery process, including extended vehicle service contracts, tire and wheel protection, guaranteed auto protection (known as “GAP”, this protection covers the shortfall between a customer’s loan balance and insurance payoff in the event of a casualty) and property insurance. These products are primarily underwritten and administered by independent third parties. Lazydays is primarily compensated on a straight commission basis.

 

Parts and Services and Other

 

Repair and Maintenance : In addition to preparing RVs for delivery to customers, Lazydays’ service and repair operations, with over 300 service bays, provide onsite general RV maintenance and repair services at all the Company’s dealership locations. Lazydays employs over 170 highly skilled technicians, with many of them being certified with the Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (“RVIA”) or the National RV Dealers Association (“RVDA”). The Company is equipped to offer comprehensive services and perform OEM warranty repairs for most RV components. The Company also maintains a body shop, cabinet shop, chassis shop and windshield and glass repair shop with specialized equipment and facilities.

 

Installation of parts and accessories: Lazydays’ full-service repair facilities enable Lazydays to install all parts and accessories sold at its dealership locations, including, among other items, towing and hitching products, satellite systems, braking systems, leveling systems and appliances. While other RV dealerships may be able to install RV parts and accessories and other retailers may be able to sell certain parts and accessories, Lazydays’ ability to both sell and install necessary parts and accessories affords the Company a competitive advantage over online retailers and big box retailers that do not have service centers designed to accommodate RVs and other RV dealerships that do not offer a comprehensive inventory of parts and accessories.

 

Collision repair: Lazydays offers collision repair services in all markets and the Company’s Tampa, Florida, Tucson, Arizona and Loveland, Colorado locations are equipped with full body paint booths. Lazydays’ facilities are equipped to offer a wide selection of collision repair services, including fiberglass front and rear cap replacement, windshield replacement, interior remodel solutions and paint work. The Company can perform collision repair services for a wide array of insurance carriers.

 

Parts and Accessories Store: With sizable parts and accessories inventory, in addition to a fully stocked onsite retail and accessory stores and access through the Lazydays’ networks for hard to find parts, Lazydays provides new and pre-owned RV buyers the option of dealer installed accessories, such as tow hitches, satellite dishes and specialized suspension systems that can be included in each buyer’s financing or aftermarket through the Lazydays retail store footprint. The Company believes that its Tampa, Florida Accessories & More store is among the largest aftermarket parts and accessories stores in the state of Florida.

 

RV Rentals: Lazydays offer consumers interested in the RV lifestyle a fleet of vehicles available for rent. Lazydays’ rentals offer comprehensive amenities allowing for a more premier camping experience and an introduction to the RV lifestyle. Lazydays offers unlimited mileage and trip planning services and add-ons such as outdoor living, kitchen and linen packages.

 

RV Campground: Lazydays also operates the Lazydays RV Resort at its Tampa, Florida location. Also known as the Lazydays RV Campground, the Lazydays RV Resort includes amenities designed to allow guests to relax and unwind, or enjoy fun activities as a family. The resort offers 300 RV sites with full 50-amp hookups, a full-time activities coordinator, sports courts, trolley service to and from the Lazydays dealership, and a screened and heated pool. The resort also offers rental units that can comfortably accommodate up to 6 people with one and a half bathrooms, full indoor and outdoor kitchens and other amenities. The resort also operates on site restaurants.

Growth Strategy

 

Grow the Company’s Customer Base. Lazydays believes its strong brands, market position, ongoing investment in its service platform, broad product portfolio and full array of RV offerings will continue to provide it with competitive advantages in targeting and capturing a larger share of consumers in addition to the growing number of new RV enthusiasts that will enter the market. The Company continuously works to attract new customers to its existing dealership locations through targeted integrated digital and traditional marketing efforts, attractive offerings and access to its wide array of resources for RV enthusiasts. The Company has focused specifically on marketing to the fast-growing demographics of retiring baby boomers and younger millennial and Generation X market entrants. The Company also markets to these segments through partnership marketing efforts and its sponsorships of college and professional athletic events, music festivals, motorsports events, RV campsites across the country, and other RV lifestyle efforts.

 

Greenfield Dealership Locations. Lazydays may establish dealership locations in new and existing markets to expand its customer base. Target markets and locations are identified by employing proprietary data and analytical tools. The Company believes there is ample white space for additional development opportunities. The Company intends to open greenfield sites that will grow its customer base and present attractive risk-adjusted returns and significant value-creation opportunities.

 

Dealership Location Acquisitions. The RV dealership industry is highly fragmented with many independent RV dealers. The Company has used, and plans to continue to use acquisitions of independent dealers as a fast and capital efficient alternative to new dealership location openings to expand its business and grow the Company’s customer base. Lazydays believes its experience and scale allow it to operate acquired locations efficiently. Lazydays intends to continue to pursue acquisitions that will grow its customer base and present attractive risk-adjusted returns and significant value-creation opportunities.

 

Service and Collision. Lazydays believes that its service and repair capabilities represent a significant opportunity for incremental revenue growth, especially as the Company grows geographically. Lazydays frequently welcomes customers who travel from across the country to have their vehicles serviced by Lazydays’ team of service and repair professionals. As a result, the service and repair department serves as a means of attracting potential customers to the Lazydays facilities and offers greater additional sales opportunities for Lazydays.

 

Parts and Accessories Store “Accessories & More”. Aftermarket RV parts and accessories are typically under-represented at RV dealerships. The Company believes that parts and accessories are an important part of the RV lifestyle and serve to engage customers with the Lazydays brand outside of the typical RV buying and servicing cycle. The Company understands that RV owners need a reliable resource for RV necessities and products that make their camping experience more enjoyable. Lazydays stores have expansive offerings and provide access to RV product experts to assist RV owners in their RV lifestyle needs. Lazydays believes that the “Accessories & More” strategy encompasses all of the needs of the RV consumer.

 

RV Rentals. Renting RVs continues to grow in popularity as a cost-effective vacation alternative. Lazydays has a fleet of vehicles available for rental at four dealership locations. The Company’s rental vehicles have a robust amenity offering and the Company’s value proposition includes unlimited mileage, add-ons and trip planning for consumers resulting in a superior rental experience. Lazydays believes that RV rentals drive interest in the RV lifestyle and provides an opportunity to introduce new customers to the Lazydays brand. Lazydays is well positioned to take advantage of this growing opportunity.

 

Leverage the Company’s scale and cost structure to improve operating efficiency. As Lazydays grows, it is positioned to leverage its scale to achieve competitive operating margins. The Company manages its new and used RV inventories so that its dealerships’ supply and mix of vehicles are in line with seasonal sales trends and minimize the Company’s carrying costs. In addition, the Company leverages its scale to reduce costs related to purchasing certain equipment, supplies, and services through national vendor relationships.

 

Customers and Markets

 

The RV industry is characterized by RV enthusiasts’ investment in, and steadfast commitment to, the RV lifestyle. The estimated number of U.S. households that own an RV is approximately 9 million.

 

Owners invest in insurance, extended service contracts, parts and accessories, roadside assistance and regular maintenance to protect and maintain their RVs. They typically invest in new accessories and the necessary installation costs as they upgrade their RVs. They also spend on services and resources as they plan, engage in, and return from their road trips. Furthermore, based on industry research and management’s estimates, the Company believes that RV owners typically trade-in to buy another RV every four to five years.

 

 26 
 

 

Per the RVIA 2016 Industry Profile, the RV industry had another strong year in 2016 as wholesale shipments were reported at 430,691 units, up 15.1% over 2015 and the highest total in 10 years. The strong performance in the RV industry continued the longest period of sustained growth for the RV industry, which is now at seven years. The retail value of all 2016 wholesale shipments exceeded $17.7 billion, a gain of more than 7% over the $16.5 billion total recorded in 2015 to provide further evidence of the robust health of the RV market. There are two main categories of RVs: motorhomes (motorized units) and towables (units that are towed behind a car, SUV or pickup). Motorized units include Class C Motorhomes, with prices for new units typically ranging from $60,000 to $120,000, Class A Gas Motorhomes, with prices for new units typically ranging from $75,000 to $160,000, Class A Diesel Motorhomes, with prices for new units typically ranging from $150,000 to $500,000, and Class B Motorhomes, with prices for new units typically ranging from $75,000 to $145,000. Towable units include travel trailers with prices for new units typically ranging from $8,000 to $60,000 and fifth wheel trailers, with prices for new units typically ranging from $24,000 to $90,000. RV manufacturers are now producing more innovative models, such as lightweight towables and smaller, fuel efficient motorhomes. In addition, green technologies, such as solar panels and energy efficient components are appearing on an increasing number of RVs.

 

Generally, used RVs are sold at a lower price level than comparable new RVs and the sale of used RVs has historically been more stable through business cycles than the sale of new vehicles.

 

Lazydays believes RV trips remain the least expensive type of vacation and allow RV owners to travel more while spending less. RV trips offer savings on a variety of vacation costs, including, among others, airfare, lodging and dining. While fuel costs are a component of the overall vacation cost, the Company believes fluctuations in fuel prices are not a significant factor affecting a family’s decision to take RV trips. Per the RVIA, Lazydays believes the average annual mileage use of an RV is between 3,000 miles and 5,000 miles.

 

RV ownership is multi-generational with the strongest sales among the baby boomer and Generation X (age 35-74) segments. The Company has also experienced strong year over year growth among the younger millennial and Generation X age groups. Based on RVIA industry data, robust growth was built on both an expansion of the traditional market as well as on an extension to new entrants that are younger and more ethnically diverse. The RV lifestyle has become more inclusive, providing more leisure options to every generation at an affordable price. Historically sales were built on strong economic gains. Recent volume increases have been influenced by the appeal of the changes in the size, options and features in the units created by RV manufacturers and suppliers. RV sales will continue to benefit from the aging baby-boomers as well as millennials. The number of consumers between the ages of 55 and 74 will total 79 million by 2025, 15% higher than in 2015, and the number between age 30 and 45 will total 72 million by 2025, 13% higher than in 2015.

 

Competition

 

The Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the RV industry are breadth and depth of product selection, value pricing, convenient dealership locations, technical services and customer service and experience. The Company competes directly and/or indirectly with RV dealers, RV service providers, RV rental operators, and RV parts and accessories retailers. One of the Company’s direct competitors, Camping World Holdings, Inc., is a publicly listed company that is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Additional competitors may enter the businesses in which the Company currently operates.

 

Lazydays RV Dealerships

 

As of December 31, 2017, the Company operated five Lazydays dealership locations across three states. The Company’s dealership locations are strategically located in key RV markets. Based on information collected by the Company from reports prepared by Statistical Surveys, these key RV markets (Florida, Colorado and Arizona) account for a significant portion of new RV units sold on an annual basis in the U.S. The Company’s dealerships in these key markets attract customers from all states, except Hawaii. Generally, the Company’s dealership locations provide RV repair and installation services, collision repair, parts, and accessories for RVs and RV enthusiasts, RV rentals and all the Company’s locations sell new and used RVs. The Company believes its dealership strategy of offering a comprehensive range of RV parts, services, accessories, products, rentals and new and used RVs, generates powerful cross-selling opportunities.

 

 27 
 

 

Dealership Design and Layout

 

The Company’s dealership locations range in size from approximately 14,000 to 384,000 square feet and are situated on 6 to 126 acres. The Company’s dealership locations feature service centers staffed with expert, in-house trained product specialists and are equipped with merchandise demonstrations to assist in educating customers about RV performance products. The Company’s dealership locations also provide opportunities to promote a more interactive and consultative selling environment. The Lazydays staff is trained to cross-sell and explain the benefits of the Company’s breadth of services, protection plans and products to which the Company’s customers have become accustomed, such as extended service contracts, emergency roadside assistance products, club memberships, discount camping and travel assistance.

 

The Company regularly refreshes its dealership locations to enhance the customers’ shopping experience and maximize product and service offerings. New products and services are introduced to capitalize on the advances of the RV industry and to satisfy needs of the Company’s customers. Store dress, promotional signage and directional signage are also periodically refreshed to further enhance the Lazydays customer shopping experience at Lazydays dealership locations.

 

Expansion Opportunities and Site Selection

 

The Company’s disciplined expansion and acquisition strategy focuses on growing its geographic footprint and customer base. The Company believes it has developed a rigorous and flexible process that employs exclusive data and analytical tools to identify target markets for new store openings and acquisitions. The Company selects sites for new locations or evaluates acquisition opportunities based on criteria such as local demographics, traffic patterns, proximity to RV parks and campgrounds, proximity to major interstates, analytics from the Company’s customer database, RV sales and registrations, product availability and availability of attractive acquisition and/or lease terms. Members of the Lazydays development team spend considerable time evaluating markets and prospective sites.

 

Dealership Management and Training

 

The Company’s Vice President, National General Manager oversees all dealership operations. The Company’s Vice President, National General Manager has over 37 years of experience in the RV industry and has been employed by Lazydays for over 4 years.

 

Each dealership location employs a General Manager or a General Sales Manager (in either case, the “GM”) that has responsibility for the daily operations of the dealership location. Areas of responsibility include inventory management, hiring, associate training and development, maintenance of the facilities, customer service and customer satisfaction. A GM’s management team includes a sales manager, a parts and accessories manager, a service manager, and a finance and insurance manager to help oversee the operations of each dealership location department. A typical Lazydays dealership location employs approximately 20 to 80 full-time equivalent employees.

 

The Company employs a Vice President, Operations and Supply Chain and a centralized inventory management team to oversee the Company’s RV inventory and provide consistency and controls in the forecasting, ordering, purchasing and distribution of RV inventory.

 

The Company employs a Vice President, General Manager-RV Accessories and Rentals and a centralized RV accessories and rentals management team to oversee the Company’s RV accessories retail store operations, the Company’s rental operations and all incoming customer inquiries to provide consistency in how the Company sets up and operates its RV accessory and rental operations at each dealership. This allows the Company to provide a consistent customer service experience at all Lazydays dealerships.

 

The Company is constantly seeking to add top talent by partnering with local school districts, trade schools, military bases and community organizations. The interview process identifies current and future candidates, hiring talented people that are customer focused. The Company identifies hard to fill positions and has taken a proactive approach to creating viable candidates with its Tech U and Sales U programs. Through its Tech U and Sales U programs, the Company enrolls students with technical aptitude and provides them training to successfully complete industry certification courses and prepare them for a career as an RV technician or a successful sales partner.

 

Once hired, the Company continues to provide extensive training programs and opportunities for its employees, including, among others, new-hire training and orientations, institutionalized monthly e-learning and training modules, and certification programs for the Company’s RV technicians.

Product Sourcing and Distribution

 

Sourcing

 

New and Used RVs

 

The Company generally acquires new RVs for retail sale directly from the applicable manufacturer. Lazydays has strategic contractual arrangements with many of the leading RV manufacturers. Lazydays maintains a central inventory management and purchasing group to manage and maintain adequate inventory levels and mix. RVs are transported directly from a manufacturer’s facility to Lazydays dealership locations via a third-party transportation company.

 

Lazydays’ strategy is to partner with financially sound manufacturers that make quality products, have adequate manufacturing capacity and distribution, and maintain an appropriate product mix.

 

Lazydays’ supply arrangements with OEMs are typically governed by dealer agreements, which are customary in the RV industry. The Company’s dealer agreements with OEMs are generally made on a location-by-location basis. The terms of these dealer agreements are typically subject to Lazydays, among other things, meeting all the requirements and conditions of the dealer agreement, maintaining certain sales objectives, performing services and repairs for owners of the manufacturer’s RVs that are still under manufacturer warranty, carrying the manufacturer’s parts and accessories needed to service and repair the manufacturer’s RVs in stock at all times, actively advertising and promoting the manufacturer’s RVs and indemnifying the manufacturer under certain circumstances. Lazydays’ dealer agreements generally designate a specific geographic territory, exclusive to Lazydays, provided that Lazydays meets the material obligations of the dealer agreement. Wholesale pricing is generally established on a model year basis and is subject to change in the manufacturer’s sole discretion. In certain cases, the manufacturer may also establish a suggested retail price, below which the Company cannot advertise that manufacturer’s RVs.

 

Lazydays generally acquires used RVs from customers, primarily through trade-ins, as well as through private sales, auctions, the Company’s rental inventory and other sources, and the Company generally reconditions used RVs acquired for retail sale in its parts and service departments. Used RVs that Lazydays does not sell at Lazydays dealership locations generally are sold at wholesale prices through auctions.

 

Lazydays finances the purchase of substantially all the Company’s new RV inventory from OEMs through the Floor Plan Facility. Used vehicles may also be financed from time to time through the Floor Plan Facility. For more information on the Floor Plan Facility, see “Description of Certain Indebtedness — Floor Plan Facility” below.

 

Parts and Accessories

 

The purchasing activities for the Company’s parts and accessories departments are focused on RV maintenance products, outdoor lifestyle products, RV parts and accessories, such as, among others, generators and electrical, satellite receivers and GPS systems, towing and hitching products and RV appliances, essential supplies and other products and services necessary or desirable for the RV lifestyle. The Company maintains central purchasing functions to manage inventory, product-planning, allocate merchandise to the Company’s dealership locations and oversee the replenishment of basic merchandise. The Company has no long-term purchase commitments. The Company leverages its scale to reduce costs related to purchasing certain equipment, supplies, and services through long-standing, continuous relationships with its largest vendors.

Customer Service

 

Lazydays strives to exceed expectations by providing the best overall customer experience throughout every interaction with the Company. The Company believes customer service and access to a live person is a critical component of Lazydays’ digital marketing, sales, service and rental operations, and to achieving a best-in-class customer experience. The Company’s sales and customer service centers are multi-channel, full-service contact centers. RV enthusiasts can visit Lazydays locations, call, email, internet chat, text and use social media to contact Lazydays regarding products, services, protection plans, rentals, concerns and anything else related to the RV lifestyle. RV enthusiasts can also speak with Lazydays customer service specialists for help with aftermarket accessory orders, install scheduling and to receive answers to questions and to make purchases for any product and install services offered through the Lazydays website.

 

Lazydays’ contact center specialists are extensively trained to assist customers with complex orders and provide a level of service that leads to long-term customer relationships. In addition, Lazydays’ quality assurance team monitors contacts daily and provides the leadership team with tools to maintain sales and service standards. With low turnover, the Company retains employees longer than the industry average, which the Company believes allows its callers to be assisted by experienced contact center agents who are familiar with the RV lifestyle and Lazydays’ services, protection plans and products.

 

Management Information Systems

 

The Company utilizes multiple computer systems to support its operations, including a third-party dealer management system, point-of-sale registers (“POS”), enterprise resource planning system, supply chain management tools, CRM, robust rental reservation system, marketing database and other business intelligence tools.

The Company’s business critical systems are replicated in real time and all systems are protected with on and off-site backups.

 

A database containing all customer activity across the Company’s various businesses and programs has been integrated into its website and contact centers. Comprehensive information on each customer, including a profile of the purchasing activities, is made available to drive future sales. The Company utilizes information technology and analytics to actively market and sell multiple products and services to its customers, including list segmentation and merge and purge programs, to select prospects for email and direct mail solicitations and other direct marketing efforts.

 

The Company’s management information systems and electronic data processing systems consist of an extensive range of retail, financial and merchandising systems, including purchasing, inventory distribution and logistics, sales reporting, accounts payable and merchandise management.

The Company also owns numerous domain names, including Lazdays.com, LazydaysRVSale.com, LazydaysEvents.com, LazydaysService.com, RVPlace.com, and RVListings.com, among many others. The Company believes that its trademarks and other intellectual property have significant value and are important to its marketing efforts. The Company is not aware of any material pending claims of infringement or other challenges to the Company’s right to use its intellectual property in the United States or elsewhere.

 

Government Regulation

 

The Company’s operations are subject to varying degrees of federal, state and local regulation, including the Company’s RV sales, vehicle financing, outbound telemarketing, email, direct mail, roadside assistance programs, extended vehicle service contracts and insurance activities. These laws and regulations include consumer protection laws, so-called “lemon laws,” privacy laws, escheatment laws, anti-money laundering laws and other extensive laws and regulations applicable to new and used vehicle dealers, as well as a variety of other laws and regulations. These laws also include federal and state wage and hour, anti-discrimination and other employment practices laws. Furthermore, new laws and regulations, particularly at the federal level, may be enacted that could also affect the Company’s business.

 

Motor Vehicle Laws and Regulations

 

The Company’s operations are subject to the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards promulgated by the United States Department of Transportation and the rules and regulations of various state motor vehicle regulatory agencies. The Company is also subject to federal and state consumer protection and unfair trade practice laws and regulations relating to the sale, transportation and marketing of motor vehicles. Federal, state and local laws and regulations also impose upon vehicle operators’ various restrictions on the weight, length and width of motor vehicles that may be operated in certain jurisdictions or on certain roadways. Certain jurisdictions also prohibit the sale of vehicles exceeding length restrictions. Federal and state authorities also have various environmental control standards relating to air, water, noise pollution and hazardous waste generation and disposal.

 

The Company’s financing activities with customers are subject to federal truth-in-lending, consumer leasing and equal credit opportunity laws and regulations as well as state and local motor vehicle finance laws, leasing laws, installment finance laws, usury laws and other installment sales and leasing laws and regulations, some of which regulate finance and other fees and charges that may be imposed or received in connection with motor vehicle retail installment sales. Claims arising out of actual or alleged violations of law may be asserted against the Company or its dealership locations by individuals, a class of individuals, or governmental entities and may expose the Company to significant damages or other penalties, including revocation or suspension of the Company’s licenses to conduct dealership operations and fines.

 

The Dodd-Frank Act, which was signed into law on July 21, 2010, established the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”), an independent federal agency funded by the United States Federal Reserve with broad regulatory powers and limited oversight from the United States Congress. Although automotive dealers are generally excluded, the Dodd-Frank Act could lead to additional, indirect regulation of automotive dealers, in particular, their sale and marketing of finance and insurance products, through its regulation of automotive finance companies and other financial institutions. In March 2013, the CFPB issued supervisory guidance highlighting its concern that the practice of automotive dealers being compensated for arranging customer financing through discretionary markup of wholesale rates offered by financial institutions (“dealer markup”) results in a significant risk of pricing disparity in violation of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (“ECOA”). The CFPB recommended that financial institutions under its jurisdiction take steps to address compliance with the ECOA, which may include imposing controls on dealer markup, monitoring and addressing the effects of dealer markup policies, and eliminating dealer discretion to markup buy rates.

 

Insurance Laws and Regulations

 

As a marketer of insurance programs, the Company is subject to state rules and regulations governing the business of insurance including, without limitation, laws governing the administration, underwriting, marketing, solicitation and/or sale of insurance programs. The insurance carriers that underwrite the programs that the Company sells are required to file their rates for approval by state regulators. Additionally, certain state laws and regulations govern the form and content of certain disclosures that must be made in connection with the sale, advertising or offering of any insurance program to a consumer. The Company is required to maintain certain licenses to market insurance programs.

Marketing Laws and Regulations

 

The Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and each of the states have enacted consumer protection statutes designed to ensure that consumers are protected from unfair and deceptive marketing practices. Lazydays reviews all of its marketing materials for compliance with applicable FTC regulations and state marketing laws.

 

Environmental, Health and Safety Laws and Regulations

 

The Company’s operations involve the use, handling, storage and contracting for recycling and/or disposal of materials such as motor oil and filters, transmission fluids, antifreeze, refrigerants, paints, thinners, batteries, cleaning products, lubricants, degreasing agents, tires and propane. Consequently, the Company’s business is subject to a variety of federal, state and local requirements that regulate the environment and public health and safety.

 

Most of the Lazydays dealership locations utilize aboveground storage tanks, and to a lesser extent underground storage tanks, primarily for petroleum-based products. Storage tanks are subject to periodic testing, containment, upgrading and removal requirements under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and its state law counterparts. Clean-up or other remedial action may be necessary in the event of leaks or other discharges from storage tanks or other sources. In addition, water quality protection programs under the federal Water Pollution Control Act (commonly known as the Clean Water Act), the Safe Drinking Water Act and comparable state and local programs govern certain discharges from some of the Company’s operations. Similarly, air emissions from the Company’s operations, such as RV painting, are subject to the federal Clean Air Act and related state and local laws. Certain health and safety standards promulgated by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the United States Department of Labor and related state agencies also apply to certain of the Company’s operations.

 

Although the Company incurs costs to comply with applicable environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in the ordinary course of its business, the Company does not presently anticipate that these costs will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations. The Company does not have any material known environmental commitments or contingencies.

 

Insurance

 

The Company utilizes insurance to provide for the potential liabilities for workers’ compensation, product liability, general liability, business interruption, property liability, director and officers’ liability, cyber, environmental issues, vehicle liability and employee health-care benefits. Liabilities associated with the risks that are retained by the Company are estimated, in part, by considering historical claims experience, demographic factors, severity factors and other assumptions. The Company’s results could be adversely affected by claims and other expenses related to such plans and policies if future occurrences and claims differ from these assumptions and historical trends.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2017, Lazydays had approximately 775 full-time employees. None of the Lazydays employees are represented by a labor union or are party to a collective bargaining agreement, and Lazydays has not had any labor-related work stoppages.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

 

Although the Company owns the property in its Arizona location, the Company typically leases all the real estate properties where it has operations. The Company’s real property leases generally provide for fixed monthly rents with annual escalation clauses and multiple renewal terms of 5 or 20 years each. The leases are typically “triple net” requiring the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

The Company is engaged in various legal actions, claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including claims related to employment related matters, breach of contracts, products liability and consumer protection. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these pending claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. However, litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of certain individual litigated matters may not be reasonably predictable and any related damages may not be estimable. Some litigation matters could result in an adverse outcome to the Company, and any such adverse outcome could potentially have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This Registration Statement on Form S-1 contains forward-looking statements. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. The words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “intends” and similar expressions identify some of the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance or future results and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

 

Business Overview

 

For purposes of this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” only, Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. shall be referred to as the “Company”, the “group”, “we”, “our”, and “us.” The Company operates Recreational Vehicle (“RV”) dealerships featuring a broad selection of over 2,500 new and pre-owned RVs. We believe, based on industry research and management’s estimates, that we operate one of the world’s largest RV dealerships, measured in terms of on-site inventory, located on 126 acres outside Tampa, FL. We also operate additional RV dealerships in Tucson, AZ and three cities in Colorado, Loveland, Denver and Longmont. We offer our customers a variety of services, such as third-party protection plans, financing and insurance. In addition, we have over 300 service bays across all locations, and have RV parts and accessories stores at all locations. We also have RV rental fleets in all three markets and availability to two on-site campgrounds with over 700 RV campsites. We welcome over 500,000 visitors to our dealership locations annually and employ over 700 people at the five facilities. Our dealership locations are staffed with knowledgeable local team members, providing customers access to extensive RV expertise. Our dealership locations are strategically located in key RV markets. Based on information collected by the Company from reports prepared by Statistical Surveys, these key RV markets (Florida, Colorado and Arizona) account for a significant portion of new RV units sold on an annual basis in the U.S. The Company’s dealerships in these key markets attract customers from all states, except Hawaii.

 

With over forty years of history dating back to 1976, Lazydays is an iconic, industry leading brand that is synonymous with the RV lifestyle and is known nationally as the RV Authority TM, a registered trademark that has been consistently used by the Company in its marketing and branding communications since 2013. Based on a research report prepared by Russell Research in November / December 2017, Lazydays is the second most well-known R.V. dealership brand among a national audience of non-Lazydays customers surveyed. According to the report, over 85% of Lazydays customers and over 80% of prospective customers surveyed believe that Lazydays is among the category leaders in the industry. Our consistent quality, breadth and depth of offerings, as well as our comprehensive range of RV lifestyle resources, have resulted in our customers having adoring loyalty to, and lasting trust in our brands.

 

Recent Developments

 

On October 27, 2017, we entered into the merger agreement with Andina Acquisition Corp. II (“Andina”), Andina II Holdco Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Andina (“Holdco”), Andina II Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub”) and A. Lorne Weil, an individual, to approve (a) the Redomestication Merger and (b) the Transaction Merger.

 

The merger agreement provides for a business combination transaction by means of (i) the Redomestication Merger of Andina with and into Holdco, with Holdco surviving and becoming a new public company and (ii) the Transaction Merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub with the Company surviving and becoming a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco. As a result of the Mergers, our stockholders and the shareholders of Andina will become stockholders of Holdco.

 

Under the merger agreement, upon consummation of the Redomestication Merger, (i) each ordinary share of Andina will be exchanged for one Holdco Share, except that holders of public shares shall be entitled to elect instead to receive a pro rata portion of Andina’s trust account, as provided in Andina’s charter documents, (ii) each Andina right will entitle the holder to receive one-seventh of a Holdco Share and (iii) each Andina warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one-half of one Holdco Share at a price of $11.50 per whole share. Upon consummation of the Transaction Merger, our stockholders will receive their pro rata portion of: (i) 2,857,143 Holdco Shares; and (ii) $85,000 in cash, subject to adjustments based on our working capital and debt as of closing and also subject to any such Holdco Shares and cash that are issued and paid to our option holders and participants under the Transaction Incentive Plan.

The Mergers were consummated on March 15, 2018. Holdco is the new public entity and has changed its name to “Lazydays Holdings, Inc.” Upon consummation of the Mergers, the amount paid to the former owners of Lazydays was $86,741, subject to the final closing of the debt and working capital statement.

 

New Tax Law

 

On December 22, 2017, the tax reform bill was signed into law, including a permanent reduction in the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the enacted law, we were required to revalue deferred tax assets and liabilities at the enacted rate. This revaluation resulted in a benefit of $12 to income tax expense.

 

M&T Credit Facility

 

On March 15, 2018, the Company replaced its existing debt agreements with Bank of America with a $200,000 Senior Secured Credit Facility with M&T Bank (the “M&T Facility”). The M&T Facility includes a $175,000 Floor Plan Facility (the “M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit”), a $20,000 Term Loan (the “M&T Term Loan”), and a $5,000 Revolving Credit Facility (the “M&T Revolver”). The M&T Facility will mature on March 15, 2021. The M&T facility requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants and is secured by substantially all assets of the Company.

 

The M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit may be used to finance new vehicle inventory, but only $45,000 may be used to finance pre-owned vehicle inventory and only $4,500 may be used to finance rental units. Principal becomes due upon the sale of the respective vehicle. The M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit shall accrue interest at either (a) the fluctuating 30-day LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin which ranges from 2.00% to 2.30% based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio (as defined in the M&T Facility) or (b) the Base Rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.30% based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio (as defined in the M&T facility). The Base Rate is defined in the agreement as the highest of M&T’s prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%. In addition, the Company will be charged for unused commitments at a rate of 0.15%.

 

The M&T Term Loan will be repaid in equal monthly principal instalments of $242 plus accrued interest through the maturity date. At the maturity date, the Company will pay a principal balloon payment of $11,300 plus any accrued interest. The M&T Term Loan shall bear interest at (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 3.0% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.25%-2.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement).

 

The M&T Revolver allows the Company to draw up to $5,000. The M&T Revolver shall bear interest at (a) 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 3.0% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.25%-2.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement). The M&T Revolver is also subject to the unused commitment fees at rates varying from 0.25% to 0.50% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined).

 

2018 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan

 

On March 15, 2018, Holdco adopted the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The 2018 Plan reserves up to 13% of the Holdco Shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis. If the fair market value per share of Holdco Share immediately following the closing of the Merger is greater than $8.75 per Holdco Share the number of Holdco Shares authorized for awards under the 2018 Plan shall be increased by a formula (as defined in the 2018 Plan) not to exceed 18% of Holdco Shares then outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

 

On March 16, 2018, Holdco granted 3,573,113 stock options to employees under the 2018 Plan, including 1,458,414 to the CEO and 583,366 to the CFO. The options have an exercise price of $11.10 and a contractual life of five years. The options shall vest as follows and shall be exercisable only to the extent that it has vested: 30% of the option shall vest once the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”), as defined in the options agreement, is equal to or greater than $13.125 per Holdco Share for at least thirty (30) out of thirty-five (35) consecutive trading days; an additional 30% of the options shall vest once the VWAP is equal to or greater than $17.50 per Holdco Share for at least thirty (30) out of thirty-five (35) consecutive trading days; an additional 30% of the Option shall vest once the VWAP is equal to or greater than $21.875 per Holdco Share for at least thirty (30) out of thirty-five (35) consecutive trading days; and an additional 10% of the Option shall vest once the VWAP is equal to or greater than $35 per Holdco Share for at least thirty (30) out of thirty-five (35) consecutive trading days; provided that the option-holder remains continuously employed by the Company (and/or any of its subsidiaries) from the grant date through (and including) the relevant date of vesting.

 

 35 
 

 

On March 16, 2018, Holdco granted options for the purchase of an aggregate of 99,526 Holdco Shares to the non-employee directors of the Company. The options issued to the non-employee directors of the Company have an exercise price of $11.10, vest over 3 years, and have a 5-year contractual life.

 

How We Generate Revenue

 

We derive our revenues from sales of new units, sales of pre-owned units, RV parts, service and repairs, commissions earned on sales of third-party financing and insurance products, visitor fees at our Tampa campground and food facilities, and other revenues. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we derived our revenues from these categories in the following percentages:

   Percentages of Revenues 
   For the Years Ended December 31, 
   2017   2016 
New vehicles   54.5%   54.7%
Pre-owned vehicles   34.3%   34.0%
Parts, service and other   11.1%   11.3%
Total   100.0%   100.0%

 

We believe that we are the nation’s largest single point of distribution for RVs and a primary retail outlet for most of the leading manufacturers in the industry. New and pre-owned RV sales accounted for approximately 89% of total revenues in each of the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. These revenue contributions have remained relatively consistent year over year.

Gross Profit and Gross Margins. Gross profit is our total revenue less our total costs applicable to revenue. The vast majority of our cost applicable to revenues is related to the cost of vehicles. New and pre-owned vehicles have accounted for 97% of the cost of revenues in each of the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of revenue.

 

Our gross profit is variable in nature and generally follows changes in our revenue. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, gross profit was $127,137 and $117,182, respectively, and gross margin was 20.7% in each of the years. Our vehicle gross margins are expected to be negatively impacted for two quarters following the Merger as a result of our LIFO-based inventory being written up to fair market value pursuant to the requirements of purchase accounting.

 

Our gross margins on pre-owned vehicles are typically higher than gross margins on new vehicles, on a percentage basis. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the gross margins were also favorably impacted by parts service, and other revenue whose combined revenues were 11.2% and 11.3%, respectively, of total revenues. Our margins on these lines of business typically carry higher gross margin percentages than our new and pre-owned vehicle sales.

 

SG&A as a percentage of Gross Profit. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of gross profit allows us to monitor our expense control over a period of time. SG&A consists primarily of wage-related expenses, selling expenses related to commissions and advertising, lease expenses and corporate overhead expenses. Salaries, commissions and benefits represent the largest component of our total selling, general and administrative expense and averages approximately 53% of total selling, general and administrative expense.

 

We calculate SG&A expenses as a percentage of gross profit by dividing SG&A expenses for the period by total gross profit. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, SG&A as a percentage of gross profit was 82.7% and 83.2%, respectively. We expect SG&A expenses to increase as we open new retail locations through organic growth and acquisitions, which we also expect will drive increases in revenue and gross profit. Additionally, we expect that our SG&A expenses will increase marginally in future periods in part due to additional legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses that we expect to incur as a result of being a public company, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the related rules and regulations.

 

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a not a U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principal (“GAAP”) financial measure, but it is one of the primary metrics management uses to evaluate the financial performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is also frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to supplement GAAP measures of performance as follows:

 

 36 
 

 

  as a measurement of operating performance to assist us in comparing the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis, and remove the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations;
     
  for planning purposes, including the preparation of our internal annual operating budget and financial projections;
     
  to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies; and
     
  to evaluate our capacity to fund capital expenditures and expand our business.

 

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding depreciation and amortization, non-floor plan interest expense, interest income and income tax expense , and other supplemental adjustments . We believe Adjusted EBITDA, when considered along with other performance measures, is a useful measure as it reflects certain operating drivers of the business, such as sales growth, operating costs, selling and administrative expense and other operating income and expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA can provide a more complete understanding of the underlying operating results and trends and an enhanced overall understanding of our financial performance and prospects for the future. While Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure under GAAP, management uses this financial measure to evaluate and forecast business performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of liquidity or cash flows from operations, or a measure comparable to net income as it does not take into account certain requirements such as non-recurring gains and losses which are not deemed to be a normal part of the underlying business activities.

 

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other companies within the industry. We compensate for these limitations by using Adjusted EBITDA as only one of several measures for evaluating its business performance. In addition, capital expenditures, which impact depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income tax expense, are reviewed separately by management. Our measure of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin to net income margin, and a further discussion of how we utilize this non-GAAP financial measure, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Year Ended December 31, 2017 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2016

 

Revenue

 

Revenue increased by approximately $49.5 million, or 8.8%, to $614.8 million from $565.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This growth primarily resulted from a 5.9% increase in the number of total vehicles sold as a result of strong customer demand.

 

New Vehicles and Pre-Owned Vehicles Revenue

 

Revenue from our new and pre-owned vehicles sales increased by approximately $45.6 million, or 9.1%, to $546.4 million from $500.8 million from the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Revenue from new vehicle sales increased by approximately $26.7 million, or 8.6%, to $335.3 million from $308.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of new vehicles sold from 3,940 to 4,224 due to strong customer demand. The average revenue per unit sold was approximately $0.08 million per unit and increased by 1.3% for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Revenue from pre-owned vehicle sales increased by approximately $18.9 million, or 9.9%, to $211.1 million from $192.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This was primarily attributable to an increase in the number of pre-owned vehicles sold from 3,037 to 3,167 due to strong customer demand. The average revenue per unit sold was approximately $0.07 and $0.06 million per unit during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and increased by 5.3% for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Parts, Service and Other Revenue

 

Parts, service, and other revenue consists of sales of parts, accessories, and related services. It also consists finance and insurance revenues as well as campground and other revenues. Parts, service and other revenue increased by approximately $3.9 million year over year, or 6.0%, to $68.5 million from $64.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Sales of parts, accessories and related services increased by approximately $4.0 million, or 14.2%, to $31.8 from $27.9 million primarily driven by the associated growth that accompanies new and used sales volumes and new initiatives in parts and accessories sales, including testing e-commerce market for parts sales through September 2017.

 

Finance and insurance revenue increased by approximately $0.8 million, or 2.8%, to $29.8 million from $29.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, primarily due to higher sales volume, partially offset by an increase in chargebacks due to cancellations and early payoffs for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Campground and other revenue, which includes RV rental revenue, decreased by approximately $0.9 million year over year, or 11.7%, to $6.8 million from $7.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

 37 
 

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit consists of gross revenues less our cost of sales and services. Gross profit increased by approximately $10.0 million, or 8.5%, to $127.1 million from $117.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in revenue discussed above.

 

New and Pre-Owned Vehicles Gross Profit

 

New and pre-owned vehicle gross profit increased 12.8% to $74.1 million from $65.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

The increase in new and pre-owned vehicle gross profit is attributable to a 7.2% increase in sales volume on new vehicles, a 4.3% increase in sales volume on pre-owned vehicles, and an increase in OEM rebates. We experienced increases in profit per retail unit sold related to a favorable shift in sales mix in our new product lines. We also had an increase in gross profit per retail unit on our pre-owned product lines due to increased demand for pre-owned vehicles during the period and an approximate 5.3% increase in the average sales price per unit sold.

 

Parts, Service and Other Gross Profit

 

Parts, services and other gross profit increased 3.0% to $53.1 million from $51.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as a result of the increases in sales of parts, accessories and related services described as well as improved labor rate realization in 2017. In addition, there was an increase in sales of finance and insurance revenues for the reasons described above. Finance and insurance revenues typically carry higher margins than sales of parts, accessories, and related services.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, including depreciation and amortization, increased 7.7% to $105.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, from $97.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2016. This increase is largely due to increases in salary, commissions and benefits expenses, as well as increases in advertising and promotion costs, outsourced delivery fees and customer satisfaction costs, which increase as a result of increases in revenue. Historically, salary, commissions, payroll taxes and benefits have comprised the majority of our total SG&A expenses and were equal to 51.6% of SG&A expenses during the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to 53.5% during the year ended December 31, 2016. Additionally, for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we incurred $2.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in connection with transaction costs relating to the merger agreement and $0.5 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation to employees.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense increased by approximately $1.5 million, or 20.3%, to $8.8 million from $7.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, primarily due to an increase in interest expense on our floor plan credit facility from $2.3 million in 2016 to $3.7 million in 2017, as a result of higher principal outstanding during the period, partially offset by a decrease in the Adjusted LIBOR rates charged on the floor plan credit facility. The higher outstanding principal balance on our floor plan credit facility was driven by a draw down to finance our $15.0 million distribution during 2017. Interest charged on the floor plan facility for the year ended December 31, 2016 and through July 1, 2017 was equal to the LIBOR Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.25%; on August 1, 2017, the rate decreased to LIBOR plus 2.75% and on November 1, 2017, the rate decreased further to LIBOR plus 2.25%.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income tax expense increased to $5.1 million in 2017 from $4.5 million in 2016, due to the increase in pre-tax income.

 

Non-Gaap Financial Metrics

 

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, to enable us to analyze our performance and financial condition, as described in “Key Performance Indicators”, above. We utilize these financial measures to manage our business on a day-to-day basis and believe that they are the most relevant measures of performance. We believe that these measures are commonly used in the industry to measure performance. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide expanded insight to measure revenue and cost performance, in addition to the standard GAAP-based financial measures.

Net Cash from Operating Activities

 

The Company generated cash from operating activities of approximately $24.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to cash used in operating activities of approximately $7.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. Net income increased by approximately $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016. Adjustments for non-cash expenses were $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, as compared to $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2017, there was approximately $9.6 million of cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities as compared to $19.7 million of cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2016. The fluctuation in cash used / provided by operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to changes in the balance of income taxes receivable / payable and changes in inventory and receivables balances during the period.

 

Net Cash from Investing Activities

 

The Company used cash in investing activities of approximately $2.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to approximately $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company used cash of approximately $2.6 million for purchases of property and equipment during the year ended December 31, 2017, partially offset by approximately $0.2 million of proceeds received in the sale of purchase of property and equipment. The Company used cash of $6.5 million for the purchase of property and equipment during the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Net Cash from Financing Activities

 

The Company used cash in financing activities of approximately $12.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to net cash used in financing activities of approximately $50.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued a cash dividend of approximately $15.0 million and used approximately $3.0 million of cash to pay down the revolving line of credit, $1.9 million to repay long term debt, and $1.3 million to repay the contingent liability related to the RV America Acquisition, partially offset by $9.2 million of net borrowings under the floor plan. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company paid a cash dividend of approximately $44.5 million and used approximately $3.5 million of cash to pay down the revolving line of credit and $1.9 million to repay long term debt.

 

Funding Needs and Sources

 

The Company has historically satisfied its liquidity needs through cash from operations and various borrowing arrangements. Cash requirements consist principally of scheduled payments of principal and interest on outstanding indebtedness (including indebtedness under its existing floor plan credit facility), the acquisition of inventory, capital expenditures, salary and sales commissions and lease expenses.

 

As of December 31, 2017, the Company had liquidity of approximately $13.3 million in cash and had working capital of approximately $14.6 million.

 

 40 
 

 

Capital expenditures include expenditures to extend the useful life of current facilities and expand operations. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company invested approximately $2.6 and $6.5 million in capital expenditures, respectively. Capital expenditures during 2017 were primarily for building improvements and the expansion of our rental fleet . Capital expenditures during 2016 were primarily for the expansion of our rental fleet.

 

The Company maintains sizable inventory in order to meet the expectations of its customers and believes that it will continue to require working capital consistent with past experience. Historically, the Company has funded its operations with internally generated cash flow and borrowings. Changes in working capital are driven primarily by profit levels. The Company maintains a floor plan credit facility to finance its vehicle inventory. At times, the Company has made repayments on its existing floor plan credit facility using excess cash flow from operations.

 

As a result of the Mergers on March 15, 2018, approximately $105.5 million of incremental cash was made available from various sources, of which $86.7 million was paid out to the Stockholders, leaving a minimum (after payment of transaction expenses) of approximately an incremental $9.0 million of cash available for future opportunities, including potential acquisitions. The incremental cash resulted from the PIPE Investment of approximately $94.8 million and $10.7 million of existing cash on the books of Andina.

 

Floor Plan Notes Payable

 

The Company maintains a floor plan financing agreement with Bank of America (as amended on February 27, 2017) with asset-based borrowing availability of up to $140 million through November 18, 2018. The entire facility may be used to finance new vehicle inventory but only up to $40.0 million may be used to finance pre-owned vehicle inventory, of which a maximum of $5.0 million may be used to finance rental units. The principal balance outstanding under this facility was approximately $105.2 and $96.0 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2016 and through July 1, 2017, interest was equal to LIBOR plus 3.25%; on August 1, 2017, the rate decreased to LIBOR plus 2.75% and on November 1, 2017, the rate decreased further to LIBOR plus 2.25%.

 

Revolving Line of Credit and Long-Term Debt

 

On November 18, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America for an aggregate commitment amount of $20,000, which includes two facilities (the “BOA Credit Agreement”). One of the two facilities under the BOA Credit Agreement is a $7,000 revolving line of credit (“Revolver”) which matures on November 18, 2020. The Revolver bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum and has no minimum payment requirements. The principal balance on the Revolver was $0 and $3,000 and the availability on the Revolver was $7,000 and $4,000 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

The second of two facilities under the BOA Credit Agreement is a $13,000 term note payable (“Term Loan”) which matures on November 18, 2020 with a balloon payment due of $3,867. The Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.50% (4.88% and 4.73% at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively) per annum and requires monthly payments equal to $155 of principal, plus interest. The principal balance on the Term Loan was $9,130 and $10,988 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Interest expense on the BOA Term Loan was $491 and $474 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Other Debt Terms

 

The Revolver, the Term Loan and the Floor Plan Notes Payable, collectively known as (the “BOA Debt”) are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Security Agreement between the Company and the lender.

 

Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. is subject to covenant testing at quarterly intervals, which includes tests on Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio. Additionally, Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. is subject to Current Ratio covenant testing at monthly intervals. The financial results of the Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. need to pass the covenant levels set at each period end to avoid being in a covenant breach. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants during the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

 

As of December 31, 2017, the payment of dividends by the Company (other than from proceeds of revolving loans) was permitted pursuant to the terms of the BOA Debt, so long as at the time of the payment of any such dividend, no event of default existed under the BOA Debt or would result from the payment of such dividend, and so long as any such dividend was permitted under the BOA Debt (including any event of default that would result from failure to comply with the current ratio test under the BOA Debt). As of December 31, 2017, the maximum amount of cash dividends that the Company could make, from legally available funds, to its stockholders was limited to $6,620 (pursuant to a calculation as defined in the BOA Credit Agreement and the floor plan facility).

M&T Credit Facility

 

On March 15, 2018, the Company replaced its existing debt agreements with Bank of America with a $200,000 Senior Secured Credit Facility with the M&T Facility. The M&T Facility includes a $175,000 M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit, a $20,000 M&T Term Loan, and a $5,000 M&T Revolver. The M&T Facility will mature on March 15, 2021. The M&T facility requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants and is secured by substantially all assets of the Company.

 

The M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit may be used to finance new vehicle inventory, but only $45,000 may be used to finance pre-owned vehicle inventory and only $4,500 may be used to finance rental units. Principal becomes due upon the sale of the respective vehicle. The M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit shall accrue interest at either (a) the fluctuating 30-day LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin which ranges from 2.00% to 2.30% based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio (as defined in the M&T Facility) or (b) the Base Rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.30% based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio (as defined in the M&T facility). The Base Rate is defined in the agreement as the highest of M&T’s prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%. In addition, the Company will be charged for unused commitments at a rate of 0.15%.

 

The M&T Term Loan will be repaid in equal monthly principal instalments of $242 plus accrued interest through the maturity date. At the maturity date, the Company will pay a principal balloon payment of $11,300 plus any accrued interest. The M&T Term Loan shall bear interest at (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 3.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.25% to 2.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement).

 

The M&T Revolver allows the Company to draw up to $5,000. The M&T Revolver shall bear interest at (a) 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 3.0% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.25% to 2.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement). The M&T Revolver is also subject to the unused commitment fees at rates varying from 0.25% to 0.50% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined).

Legal Proceedings

 

We are party to numerous legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

 

Inflation

 

Although we cannot accurately anticipate the effect of inflation on our operations, we believe that inflation has not had, and is not likely in the foreseeable future to have, a material impact on our results of operations.

 

Cyclicality

 

Unit sales of RV vehicles historically have been cyclical, fluctuating with general economic cycles. During economic downturns, the RV retailing industry tends to experience similar periods of decline and recession as the general economy. We believe that the industry is influenced by general economic conditions and particularly by consumer confidence, the level of personal discretionary spending, fuel prices, interest rates and credit availability.

 

Seasonality and Effects of Weather

 

Our operations generally experience modestly higher volumes of vehicle sales in the first quarter of each year due in part to consumer buying trends and the hospitable warm climate during the winter months at our largest location (Tampa).

 

Our largest RV dealership is located near Tampa, Florida, which is in close proximity to the Gulf of Mexico. A severe weather event, such as a hurricane, could cause severe damage to our property and inventory. Although we believe we have adequate insurance coverage, if we were to experience a catastrophic loss, we may exceed our policy limits, and/or we may have difficulty obtaining similar insurance coverage in the future.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of these financial statements requires us 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 financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Critical accounting policies are those that management believes are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results, and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We base our estimates on historical experience, outside advice from parties believed to be experts in such matters, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. A complete description of all of our significant accounting policies can be found in Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 8-K. We consider the following policies to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing our consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue when the following four criteria are met: (1) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (2) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (3) fees are fixed or determinable, and (4) the collection of related accounts receivable is probable.

 

Revenue from the sale of vehicles is recognized on delivery, transfer of title and completion of financing arrangements. Revenue from parts sales and service is recognized on delivery of the service or product.

 

 43 
 

 

Revenue from rental of vehicles is recognized pro rata over the period of the rental agreement. The rental agreements are generally short-term in nature. Revenue from rentals is included in part, service, and other revenue on the accompanying statements of income.

 

We receive commissions from the sale of insurance and vehicle service contracts to customers. In addition, we arrange financing for customers through various financial institutions and receives commissions. We may be charged back (“charge-backs”) for financing fees, insurance or vehicle service contract commissions in the event of early termination of the contracts by the customers. The revenues from financing fees and commissions are recorded at the time of the sale of the vehicles and a provision for future charge-backs is established based on historical operating results and the termination provisions of the applicable contracts.

 

Deposits on vehicles received in advance are accounted for as a liability and recognized into revenue upon completion of each respective transaction.

 

Receivables

 

We arrange third-party financing for our customers, as is customary in our industry. Interest is not normally charged on receivables. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based on our historic loss experience and current economic conditions. Losses are charged to the allowance when we believe that further collection efforts will not produce additional recoveries.

 

Inventories

 

Vehicle and parts inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. Cost includes purchase costs, reconditioning costs, dealer-installed accessories, and freight. For vehicles accepted in trades, the cost is the fair value of such used vehicles at the time of the trade-in. Retail parts, accessories, and other inventories primarily consist of retail travel and leisure specialty merchandise.

 

Vendor Allowances

 

As a component of our consolidated procurement program, we frequently enter into contracts with vendors that provide for payments of rebates. These vendor payments are reflected in the carrying value of the inventory when earned or as progress is made toward earning the rebates and as a component of cost of sales as the inventory is sold. Certain of these vendor contracts provide for rebates that are contingent upon us meeting specified performance measures such as a cumulative level of purchases over a specified period of time. Such contingent rebates are given accounting recognition at the point at which achievement of the specified performance measures are deemed to be probable and reasonably estimable.

 

Goodwill and Intangibles

 

Our goodwill, trademarks and tradenames are deemed to have indefinite lives, and accordingly are not amortized, but are evaluated at least annually for impairment and more often whenever changes in facts and circumstances may indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgment is required to estimate the fair value of reporting units which includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates, consideration of our aggregate fair value, and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment.

 

When testing goodwill for impairment, we may assess qualitative factors for some or all of our reporting units to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. Alternatively, we may bypass this qualitative assessment for some or all of our reporting units and perform a detailed quantitative test of impairment (step 1). If we perform the detailed quantitative impairment test and the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we would perform an analysis (step 2) to measure such impairment.

 

Other intangible assets include manufacturer relationships and customer database, which are amortized using the straight-line method of their respective useful lives. The customer database is fully amortized.

 

 44 
 

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

We evaluated the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. We measure the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense in the period incurred. Betterments and additions are capitalized. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

 

Tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return are recorded in our financial statements. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Uncertain tax positions have had no impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We do not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date. Our policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest and penalties as income tax (benefit) expense in the consolidated statements of income.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

 

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 amends the existing guidance to require that inventory should be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes” (“ASU 2015-17”). The FASB issued ASU 2015-17 as part of its ongoing Simplification Initiative, with the objective of reducing complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require entities that present a classified balance sheet to classify all deferred tax liabilities and assets as a noncurrent amount. This guidance does not change the offsetting requirements for deferred tax liabilities and assets, which results in the presentation of one amount on the balance sheet. Additionally, the amendments in ASU 2015-17 align the deferred income tax presentation with the requirements in International Accounting Standards (IAS) 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 were effective for our financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 45 
 

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 will also require new qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating ASU 2016-02 and its impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Principal versus Agent Considerations”, in April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” and in May 9, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2016-12”). This update provides clarifying guidance regarding the application of ASU No. 2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers which is not yet effective. These new standards provide for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition that replaces the existing revenue recognition guidance. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The amendment addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: allowing the accounting policy election to record forfeitures as they occur for employee share-based payments; income tax consequences; classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and classification on the statement of cash flows. This standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). The amendment addresses several specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to materially impact our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (“ASU 2016-18”). The amendments require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to materially impact our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). This ASU clarifies the definition of a business to exclude gross assets acquired (or disposed of) that have substantially all of their fair value concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. The ASU also updates the definition of the term “output” to be consistent with ASC Topic No. 606. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, and we adopted ASU 2017-01 as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

 46 
 

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): (“ASU 2017-09”). ASU 2017-09 provides clarity on the accounting for modifications of stock-based awards. ASU 2017-09 requires adoption on a prospective basis in the annual and interim periods for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 for share-based payment awards modified on or after the adoption date. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842). This ASU adds Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Announcement at the July 20, 2017 Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meeting. The July announcement addresses Transition Related to ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This Update also supersedes SEC paragraphs pursuant to the rescission of SEC Staff Announcement, “Accounting for Management Fees Based on a Formula,” effective upon the initial adoption of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and SEC Staff Announcement, “Lessor Consideration of Third-Party Value Guarantees,” effective upon the initial adoption of Topic 842, Leases. The amendments in this Update also rescind three SEC Observer Comments effective upon the initial adoption of Topic 842. One SEC Staff Observer comment is being moved to Topic 842. This standard is required to be implemented effective January 1, 2019. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

In November 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-14, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends certain aspects of the new revenue recognition standard. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

As a result of the Mergers described above, on March 15, 2018, we became a wholly owned subsidiary of Lazydays Holdings Inc., a public entity. Lazydays Holdings, Inc. qualifies as an emerging growth company pursuant to the provision of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain new accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Lazydays Holdings, Inc. has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided by the JOBS Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. The effective dates detailed above reflect the effective dates available to emerging growth companies under the JOBS act.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain statements in this Registration Statement on Form S-1 constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Registration Statement on Form S-1 and the prospectus, including, without limitation, statements regarding our future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are “forward-looking” statements.

Code of Ethics

 

In order to clearly set forth our commitment to conduct our operations in accordance with our high standards of business ethics and applicable laws and regulations, the Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct (“Code of Conduct”), which is applicable to all directors, officers and employees. A copy of the Code of Conduct is available on our corporate website at www.lazydays.com.

Board of Directors

 

The business and affairs of the Company are managed by or under the direction of the Board. The Board is currently composed of eight directors divided into three classes, Class A, Class B and Class C. Class A directors serve until the 2019 annual meeting of stockholders or until such time as their successors have been duly elected, Class B directors serve until the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders or until such time as their successors have been duly elected and Class C directors serve until the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders or until such time as their successors have been duly elected. Pursuant to our bylaws, the Board may establish one or more committees of the Board, however designated, and delegate to any such committee the full power of the Board, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

The Board intends to have regularly scheduled meetings and at such meetings our independent directors will meet in executive session.

 

We encourage all of our directors to attend our annual meeting of stockholders.

 

Board Committees

 

Pursuant to our bylaws, the Board may establish one or more committees of the Board, however designated, and delegate to any such committee the full power of the Board, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

Our Board has established three separately designated standing committees to assist the Board in discharging its responsibilities: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating Committee. The charters for our Board committees set forth the scope of the responsibilities of that committee. The Board will assess the effectiveness and contribution of each committee on an annual basis. The charters for our Board committees were adopted by the Board in March 2018. These charters are available at www.lazydays.com, and you may obtain a printed copy of any of these charters by sending a written request to: Investor Relations, Lazydays Holdings, Inc., 6130 Lazy Days Boulevard, Seffner, Florida 33584.

 

Audit Committee. The members of this committee are Messrs. Fredlake (Chair), Comstock and Rich. The Board has determined that Mr. Fredlake is an “audit committee financial expert”, as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, and is the Chairman of the Audit Committee.

 

The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibilities by overseeing our accounting and financial processes and the audits of our financial statements. The independent auditor is ultimately accountable to the Audit Committee, as representatives of the stockholders. The Audit Committee has the ultimate authority and direct responsibility for the selection, appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of the Company’s independent auditor that is engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Company (including the resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditors regarding financial reporting), and the independent auditor must report directly to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee also is responsible for the review of proposed transactions between the Company and related parties. For a complete description of the Audit Committee’s responsibilities, you should refer to the Audit Committee Charter.

 

 51 
 

 

Compensation Committee. The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Shackelton (Chair) and Gnat and Ms. Serow. The Compensation Committee was established to, among other things, administer and approve all elements of compensation and awards for our executive officers. The Compensation Committee has the responsibility to review and approve the business goals and objectives relevant to each executive officer’s compensation, evaluate individual performance of each executive in light of those goals and objectives, and determine and approve each executive’s compensation based on this evaluation. For a complete description of the Compensation Committee’s responsibilities, you should refer to the Compensation Committee Charter.

 

Nominating Committee. The members of the Nominating Committee are Messrs. Comstock (Chair) and Rich and Shackelton. The Nominating Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board or any committee thereof; recommending nominees for election as directors at each annual stockholder meeting; recommending candidates to fill any vacancies on the Board or any committee thereof; and overseeing the evaluation of the Board. For a complete description of the Nominating Committee’s responsibilities, you should refer to the Nominating Committee Charter.

 

The Nominating Committee will consider all qualified director candidates identified by various sources, including members of the Board, management and stockholders. Candidates for directors recommended by stockholders will be given the same consideration as those identified from other sources. The Nominating Committee is responsible for reviewing each candidate’s biographical information, meeting with each candidate and assessing each candidate’s independence, skills and expertise based on a number of factors. While we do not have a formal policy on diversity, when considering the selection of director nominees, the Nominating Committee considers individuals with diverse backgrounds, viewpoints, accomplishments, cultural background and professional expertise, among other factors.

 

Board Leadership

 

The Board has no policy regarding the need to separate or combine the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and instead the Board remains free to make this determination from time to time in a manner that seems most appropriate for the Company. The positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are currently held by William P. Murnane. The Board believes the Chief Executive Officer is in the best position to direct the independent directors’ attention on the issues of greatest importance to the Company and its stockholders. As a result, the Company does not have a lead independent director. Our overall corporate governance policies and practices combined with the strength of our independent directors and our internal controls minimize any potential conflicts that may result from combining the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

 

Board Oversight of Enterprise Risk

 

The Board is actively involved in the oversight and management of risks that could affect the Company. This oversight and management is conducted primarily through the committees of the Board identified above but the full Board has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks. The Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing the risk management function, specifically with respect to management’s assessment of risk exposures (including risks related to liquidity, credit, operations and regulatory compliance, among others), and the processes in place to monitor and control such exposures. The other committees of the Board consider the risks within their areas of responsibility. The Board satisfies its oversight responsibility through full reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions, as well as through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within the Company.

 

Director Independence

 

We are subject to NASDAQ’s listing requirements regarding the requirement that a majority of the board of directors be “independent.” Our board of directors has determined that all of our directors, other than Messrs. Murnane and Weil, qualify as “independent” directors in accordance with the listing requirements of NASDAQ. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests regarding a director’s independence and requires that the Board make an affirmative determination that a director has no relationship with the Company that would interfere with such director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

 54 
 

 

Each of Lazydays’ Named Executive Officers is also eligible to receive an annual cash bonus based on the performance of Lazydays (and its subsidiaries) and their individual performance. For the annual bonus, the board of directors of Lazydays sets performance targets at the beginning of each fiscal year, which are communicated to Lazydays’ Named Executive Officers. Performance targets are based on a combination of metrics which generally include EBITDA, revenue and budget components. For Lazydays’ Named Executive Officers with employment agreements (as discussed further below), the Named Executive Officer’s target bonus is a percentage of base salary as set forth in such agreement.

 

Employment Agreement – William Murnane

 

Lazydays entered into an employment agreement with William Murnane when he was hired as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Murnane also serves as Chairman of Lazydays’ board of directors for which he receives annual compensation of $75,000. The employment agreement provides for an initial base salary of $465,000, subject to annual discretionary increases. In addition, Mr. Murnane is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus based on the achievement of performance objectives. Mr. Murnane’s target bonus is 100% of his base salary.

Mr. Murnane’s employment agreement also provides that he is to be granted an option to acquire shares of common stock of Lazydays as soon as reasonably practicable after the effective date of his employment agreement for 5% of Lazydays’ outstanding common stock with such option vesting 25% after every twelve months of continuous service with accelerated vesting on a change in control, provided Mr. Murnane remains continuously employed by Lazydays from the date of grant through and including the applicable vesting date and/or change in control, as applicable.

 

If Mr. Murnane’s employment is terminated for any reason, he is entitled to receive any accrued benefits, including any earned but unpaid portion of his base salary, through the date of his termination, subject to withholding and other appropriate deductions. If Mr. Murnane resigns for good reason or is terminated without cause (each as defined in his employment agreement) then, in addition to the accrued benefits and provided he enters into a general release of claims, Lazydays will pay him severance equal to twenty-four months of his base salary (reduced to eighteen months if he is terminated after June 30, 2018).

 

Mr. Murnane’s employment agreement also provides that he shall not divulge confidential information, shall not disparage Lazydays and shall not, during his employment and twelve months thereafter, compete with Lazydays or any of its subsidiaries or solicit their customers or employees.

 

Offer Letter – Maura Berney

 

Lazydays entered into an offer letter with Ms. Berney when she was hired as Chief Financial Officer. The offer letter provides for an initial base salary of $325,000. In addition, Ms. Berney is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus based on the achievement of performance objectives. Ms. Berney’s target bonus is 75% of her base salary. Ms. Berney is also eligible to participate in any employee benefit plans as may be adopted by Lazydays from time to time. Ms. Berney’s agreement also provides that she is to be granted an option to acquire shares of common stock of Lazydays subject to approval by the Board of Directors of Lazydays, with the option vesting 25% after every twelve months of continuous service with accelerated vesting on a change in control, provided Ms. Berney remains continuously employed by Lazydays from the date of grant through and including the applicable vesting date and/or the change in control, as applicable.

Ms. Berney’s offer letter provides that if she is terminated without cause, she will, subject to entering into a general release of claims, receive severance equal to twelve months of her base salary and that if such termination is following a change in control, she is also eligible to receive a prorated bonus, if the board of directors of Lazydays determines that the performance objectives have been met.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

 

The following table summarizes information concerning the outstanding equity awards, including unexercised options, as of December 31, 2017, for each of Lazydays’ Named Executive Officers:

 

Outstanding Equity Awards at December 31, 2017

William P. Murnane   41,667    125,000(1)   21.77    1/30/2027 
Maura Berney        66,666(2)   26.00    6/12/2027 

 

 

(1)Mr. Murnane’s options vest 25% a year on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of December 2, 2016.
   
 (2)Ms. Berney’s options vest 25% a year on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of June 12, 2017.

 

In connection with the hiring of certain members of Lazydays’ management team and other employees, including Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney as Lazydays’ new Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, respectively, Lazydays, in 2017 granted options to such new hires to purchase Company common stock. The option agreements provide that the options vest in full in connection with the consummation of a change in control (as defined in the underlying agreements and plan) of Lazydays provided the executive is employed by Lazydays on the date of the consummation of the change in control. As the Mergers constituted a change in control, all outstanding options, including those granted to Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney, vested on the consummation of the Mergers. In consideration for the cancellation of options outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Mergers, the option holders, including Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney, received merger consideration (in cash and shares), after taking into account the exercise price of the options and any applicable withholding.

 

Transaction Bonus

 

Lazydays has historically maintained transaction bonus arrangements with certain members of its management team, including Mr. Fleming. The transaction bonus arrangements provided for payment of a bonus based on a formula in the event of a qualifying transaction, provided the executive remains employed by Lazydays on the date of consummation of the transaction or has experienced a qualifying termination within a specific period of time prior to the consummation of the transaction. In 2017, Lazydays replaced its transaction bonus arrangements with a plan, referred to as the Transaction Incentive Plan. Similar to the prior arrangements, the Transaction Incentive Plan provides for a bonus based on a formula in the event of a qualifying transaction, provided the executive remains employed by Lazydays on the date of consummation of the transaction or has been terminated by Lazydays without cause within two months prior to the consummation of the transaction (provided payment is made by March 15th following the end of the year in which such involuntary termination occurs).

 

The consummation of the Mergers constituted a qualifying transaction for purposes of the Transaction Incentive Plan. There were five employees who participated in the Transaction Incentive Plan, including Mr. Fleming. The aggregate value of the compensation ultimately payable under the Transaction Incentive Plan in connection with the consummation of the Transaction Merger is based on the final amount of consideration paid after any applicable adjustments based on Lazydays’ working capital and debt as of the closing of the Transaction Merger and any payments to the Company in respect of indemnification claims under the merger agreement. The approximate aggregate amount of the bonuses to be paid under the Transaction Incentive Plan to participants who are employees of Lazydays, assuming the release of all holdbacks and escrows and no adjustment to the purchase price, is $1,560,000.

 

Retirement Benefits

 

Lazydays maintains a tax-qualified defined contribution plan that meets the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, commonly called a 401(k) plan, for substantially all of its employees. The 401(k) plan is available on the same basis to all employees, including the Named Executive Officers. Each participant in the 401(k) plan can elect to defer from 0% to 100% of compensation, subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code and Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”). Lazydays may also make discretionary matching contributions in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) plan.

Named Executive Officers Following the Mergers

 

Following the consummation of the Mergers, William Murnane, Maura Berney and Ronald Fleming continue in their positions and are Named Executive Officers of the Company. The Company has entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney effective as of the consummation of the Mergers. See “Executive Officer and Director Compensation Following the Mergers – Employment Agreements.”

 

Executive Officer and Director Compensation Following the Mergers

 

Executive Compensation

 

Following the closing of the Mergers, the Company intends to develop an executive compensation program that is consistent with the historical Lazydays’ compensation policies and philosophies, which are designed to align compensation with the Company’s business objectives and the creation of stockholder value, while enabling the Company to attract, motivate and retain individuals who contribute to the long-term success of Lazydays.

 

Decisions on the executive compensation program will be made by the Compensation Committee of the board of directors of the Company. The following discussion is based on the present expectations as to the executive compensation program to be adopted by the compensation committee. The executive compensation program actually adopted will depend on the judgment of the members of the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company and may differ from that set forth in the following discussion.

 

We anticipate that decisions regarding executive compensation will reflect our belief that the executive compensation program must be competitive in order to attract and retain our executive officers. We anticipate that the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company will seek to implement our compensation policies and philosophies by linking a significant portion of our executive officers’ cash compensation to performance objectives and by providing a portion of their compensation as long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards. We have entered into employment agreements with William Murnane and Maura Berney, with such agreements being effective on the consummation of the Mergers. A description of their employment agreements is below under “Executive Officer and Director Compensation Following the Mergers – Employment Agreements”. We have also agreed to grant Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company, subject to stockholder approval of our 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as described under “Executive Officer and Director Compensation Following the Mergers — Stock-Based Awards” below.

 

We anticipate that compensation for our executive officers will have three primary components: base salary, an annual cash incentive bonus and long-term incentive based compensation in the form of stock-based awards.

Except as described below, it is expected that our Named Executive Officers’ base salaries will continue as described under “Lazydays Executive Officer and Director Compensation — Salaries” subject to the terms of the employment agreements described under “Lazydays Executive Officer and Director Compensation — Employment Agreement” and will be reviewed annually by the compensation committee of the board of directors based upon advice and counsel of its advisors.

 

Non-Equity Incentive Bonuses

 

The Company intends to use annual cash incentive bonuses for the Named Executive Officers to tie a portion of their compensation to financial and operational objectives achievable within the applicable fiscal year. The Company expects that, near the beginning of each year, the Compensation Committee will select the performance targets, target amounts, target award opportunities and other terms and conditions of the non-equity incentive bonuses for the Named Executive Officers, subject to the terms of any employment agreement. Following the end of each year, the Compensation Committee will determine the extent to which the performance targets were achieved and the amount of the award that is payable to the Named Executive Officers.

Stock-Based Awards

 

The Company intends to use stock-based awards to reward long-term performance of the Named Executive Officers. The Company believes that providing a meaningful portion of the total compensation package in the form of stock-based awards will align the incentives of its Named Executive Officers with the interests of its stockholders and serve to motivate and retain the individual Named Executive Officers. Stock-based awards will be awarded under the 2018 Plan, which was approved by the Andina shareholders at the extraordinary general meeting. For a description of the 2018 Plan, please see the section of this proxy statement/prospectus under the heading “The Incentive Plan Proposal.” On the closing of the Mergers, Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney were granted an option to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. Mr. Murnane was granted an option to purchase approximately 5.0% of the shares of common stock of the Company and Ms. Berney was granted an option to purchase approximately 2.0% of the shares of common stock of the Company, in each case, on a fully diluted basis and subject to adjustment. The options will vest based on the Company’s achievement of certain trading prices for at least thirty days during a thirty-five day period and will be subject to such terms and conditions as contained in the 2018 Plan and the option award agreements. The options will expire five years following the date of grant. The exercise price of the options will be the fair market value on the grant date.

 

Employment Agreements

 

We have entered into employment agreements with Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney effective as of the consummation of the Mergers. The employment agreements with Mr. Murnane and Ms. Berney provide for initial base salaries of $540,000 and $325,000, respectively, subject to annual discretionary increases. Following the Mergers, Mr. Murnane will no longer receive any additional compensation for his service as a member (or Chairman) of the board of directors and his base salary has been increased, accordingly. In addition, each executive is eligible to participate in any employee benefit plans adopted by the Company from time to time and is eligible to receive an annual cash bonus based on the achievement of performance objectives. Mr. Murnane’s target bonus is 100% of his base salary and Ms. Berney’s target bonus is 75% of her base salary. The employment agreements also provide that each executive is to be granted an option to purchase shares of common stock of the Company, as discussed above.

 

The employment agreements provide that if the executive is terminated for any reason, he or she is entitled to receive any accrued benefits, including any earned but unpaid portion of base salary through the date of termination, subject to withholding and other appropriate deductions. In addition, in the event the executive resigns for good reason or is terminated without cause (all as defined in the employment agreement) prior to January 1, 2022, subject to entering into a release, the Company will pay the executive severance equal to (i) two times base salary and average bonus for Mr. Murnane and (ii) one times base salary and average bonus for Ms. Berney.

 

The employment agreements also provide that the executive shall not divulge confidential information, shall not disparage the Company and/or Lazydays and shall not, during employment and twelve months thereafter, compete with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or solicit their customers or employees.

 

We anticipate that the employment arrangements for our other Named Executive Officers will remain in place following the consummation of the Mergers. Any new agreements or arrangements with the Named Executive Officers following the Mergers will be subject to approval of the Compensation Committee.

 

Other Compensation

 

Holdco expects to continue to maintain various employee benefit plans, including medical and 401(k) plans, in which the Named Executive Officers will participate.

 

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

 

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code denies a federal income tax deduction for certain compensation in excess of $1.0 million per year paid to certain employees of publicly traded companies. Beginning January 1, 2018, on account of the passage and signing of the Tax Reform Act, this limitation will apply to the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, any other named executive officers and anyone who is such a covered person after December 31, 2016. Prior to January 1, 2018, this limitation only applied to the chief executive officer and the three most highly-paid executive officers of the company (other than the chief executive officer and chief financial officer). In addition, prior to January 1, 2018, compensation that met the requirements of performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code was excluded from the deduction limit. Beginning January 1, 2018 (with the exception of certain grandfathered arrangements), a deduction will be denied for any compensation payable to covered employees that exceeds $1.0 million, regardless of whether such compensation is performance-based compensation. To retain highly skilled executives and remain competitive with other employers, the compensation committee may authorize compensation that will not be deductible under Section 162(m) or otherwise.

 

 58 
 

 

Director Compensation

 

Our non-employee members of the board of directors will receive annual cash compensation of $50,000 for serving on the board of directors, $5,000 for serving on a committee of the board of directors (other than the Chairman of each of the committees) and $10,000 for serving as the Chairman of any of the committees of the board of directors. Additionally, we expect the Compensation Committee will award an annual option grant to the non-employee directors worth $50,000 as calculated under the Black-Scholes model.

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

Related Person Policy

 

Andina’s Code of Ethics required Andina to avoid, wherever possible, all related party transactions that could result in actual or potential conflicts of interests, except under guidelines approved by the board of directors (or the audit committee). Related-party transactions are defined as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) Andina or any of its subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer, director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of Andina’s ordinary shares, or (c) immediate family member of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity). A conflict of interest situation can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position.

 

Andina’s audit committee, pursuant to its written charter, was responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent Andina entered into such transactions. The audit committee considered all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. No director was permitted to participate in the approval of any transaction in which he was a related party, but that director was required to provide the audit committee with all material information concerning the transaction. Additionally, Andina required each of its directors and executive officers to complete an annual directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that elicited information about related party transactions.

 

These procedures were intended to determine whether any such related party transaction impaired the independence of a director or presented a conflict of interest on the part of a director, employee or officer.

 

Andina Related Person Transactions

 

In July 2015, Andina issued 1,150,000 initial shares of Andina to its initial shareholders for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000. The shares of Andina held by the initial shareholders included an aggregate of 150,000 shares of Andina repurchased for an aggregate purchase price of $0.01 and cancelled by Andina in December 2015 upon receiving notice that the underwriters’ over-allotment option was not exercised in full.

 

Prior to the closing of Andina’s initial public offering, a director advanced an aggregate of approximately $139,000 to cover expenses related to Andina’s formation and the initial public offering. Andina repaid this amount on December 1, 2015 from the proceeds received upon closing of the initial public offering. On April 28, 2017, the Company issued to A. Lorne Weil a $100,000 convertible promissory note. The loan was unsecured, non-interest bearing and is payable upon consummation of a business combination. Upon consummation of the Mergers, the loan was repaid.

 

 59 
 

 

In connection with the extensions of time to consummate a business combination, Andina’s officers and directors have loaned to Andina $0.03 for each public share that was not converted for each extension month utilized. Accordingly, an amount of approximately $469,628 has been loaned to Andina and deposited in the Trust Account for the extensions. The loans will not bear interest and will be repayable by Andina to Andina’s officers and directors upon consummation of an initial business combination. If an initial business combination had not been consummated by the required time period, the loans would have been forgiven unless Andina had funds available to it outside of the trust account to repay such loans.

 

Andina maintained its principal executive offices in office space provided to Andina at no cost by a third party affiliated with one of Andina’s directors.

 

Andina was also permitted to pay consulting fees to its officers, directors, shareholders or their affiliates for assisting Andina in consummating its initial business combination in an amount not to exceed an aggregate of $500,000.

 

Lazydays Related Person Transactions

 

Awards under Transaction Incentive Plan

 

Certain of Lazydays’ officers, directors and employees are eligible to receive compensation from Lazydays pursuant to its Transaction Incentive Plan (the “Transaction Incentive Plan”). The Transaction Incentive Plan provides for a bonus based on a formula in the event of a qualifying transaction. The consummation of the Mergers constituted a qualifying transaction under the Transaction Incentive Plan. The following directors of Lazydays (each a “Director Recipient” and collectively, the “Director Recipients”) received compensation under the Transaction Incentive Plan in connection with the consummation of the Mergers: (i) Jim Fredlake, (ii) Peter McDonald and (iii) Ray Nooyi. The aggregate value of the compensation ultimately payable under the Transaction Incentive Plan to the Director Recipients in connection with the consummation of the Mergers is based on the final amount of consideration paid after any applicable adjustments based on Lazydays working capital and debt as of the closing of the Mergers and any payments to the Company in respect of indemnification claims under the merger agreement. Assuming the release of all holdbacks and escrows and no adjustment to the purchase price, each Director Recipient is expected to receive an amount of compensation, payable in cash and Company common stock, with an aggregate value of approximately $220,402 under the Transaction Incentive Plan.

 

Lazydays’ Related-Party Transactions Policy and Procedure

 

Prior to the Mergers, Lazydays did not have a formal written policy or procedure for the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions and as a result its board of directors reviewed and considered the interests of its directors, executive officers and principal stockholders in its review and consideration of related person transactions.

 

Following the Mergers, our Audit Committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions to the extent we enter into such transactions. The audit committee will consider all relevant factors when determining whether to approve a related party transaction, including whether the related party transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. No director was permitted to participate in the approval of any transaction in which he was a related party, but that director was required to provide the audit committee with all material information concerning the transaction. Additionally, we will require each of our directors and executive officers to complete an annual directors’ and officers’ questionnaire that will elicit information about related party transactions.

 

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL
OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

 

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Under applicable SEC rules, a person is deemed to be the “beneficial owner” of a voting security if such person has (or shares) either investment power or voting power over such security or has (or shares) the right to acquire such security within 60 days by any of a number of means, including upon the exercise of options or warrants or the conversion of convertible securities. A beneficial owner’s percentage ownership is determined by assuming that options, warrants and convertible securities that are held by the beneficial owner, but not those held by any other person, and which are exercisable or convertible within 60 days, have been exercised or converted.

As of March 23, 2018, 8,471,885 shares of Common Stock and 600,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

To our knowledge, none of the voting securities listed below are held under a voting trust or similar agreement, except as noted. To our knowledge, there is no arrangement, including any pledge by any person of our securities, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the Company.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Each Selling Securityholder (the “Selling Securityholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the principal trading market for such securities or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Securityholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker dealer solicits purchasers;
   
block trades in which the broker dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
   
purchases by a broker dealer as principal and resale by the broker dealer for its account;
   
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
   
privately negotiated transactions;
   
settlement of short sales;
   
in transactions through broker dealers that agree with the Selling Securityholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;
   
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
   
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
   
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

 63 
 

 

The Selling Securityholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker dealers engaged by the Selling Securityholders may arrange for other brokers dealers to participate in sales. Broker dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Securityholders (or, if any broker dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Securityholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Securityholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Securityholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The Selling Securityholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Securityholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Securityholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 (including Rule 144(i)(2)) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Securityholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the common stock by the Selling Securityholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Securityholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Our constitutional documents provide for the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0001, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001. As of March 29, 2018, we had 8,471,885 shares of common stock outstanding and 600,000 shares of Series A preferred stock outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

 

There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that the holders of more than 50% of our shares voted for the election of directors can elect all of the directors.

 

Holders of our common stock do not have any conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Our shares of common stock are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “LAZY.” We cannot assure you that our common stock will continue to be listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market as we might not in the future meet certain continued listing standards.

Preferred Stock

 

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. In connection with the PIPE Investment, we designated 600,000 shares as Series A Preferred Stock.

 

The material terms of the Series A Preferred Stock are as follows:

 

The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to all outstanding capital stock of the Company. Except as required by law, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to vote on an as-converted basis together with the holders of our common stock, and not as a separate class, at any annual or special meeting of Company stockholders. The Series A Preferred Stock will be convertible into shares of our common stock at the holder’s election at any time, at an initial conversion price of $10.0625 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment (as may be adjusted, the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, forward and reverse splits, combinations and similar events, as well as for certain dilutive issuances.

 

Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will accrue at an initial rate of 8% per annum (the “Dividend Rate”), compounded quarterly, and be payable quarterly in arrears. If we do not declare and pay dividends on any dividend payment date, such accrued and unpaid dividends, until paid in full in cash, will accrue at the then applicable Dividend Rate plus 2%. The Dividend Rate will be increased to 11% per annum, compounded quarterly, in the event our senior indebtedness less unrestricted cash during any trailing twelve month period ending at the end of any fiscal quarter is greater than 2.25 times EBITDA (as defined in the Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock) for such preceding twelve (12)-month period. The Dividend Rate will be reset to 8% at the end of the first fiscal quarter when our senior indebtedness less unrestricted cash during the trailing twelve month period ending at the end of such quarter is less than 2.25 times EBITDA for such preceding twelve (12)-month period.

 

If, at any time following the second anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the volume weighted average price of our common stock equals or exceeds $25.00 (as adjusted for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events) for a period of thirty consecutive trading days, we may force the conversion of any or all of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock at the Conversion Price then in effect. From and after the eighth anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, we may elect to redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock in cash at the stated value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. From and after the ninth anniversary of the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock has the right to require us to redeem all of such holder’s outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock in cash at the stated value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid dividends.

 

In the event of any liquidation, merger, sale, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to (i) payment in cash of the stated value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, or (ii) convert the shares of Series A Preferred Stock into our common stock and participate on an as-converted basis with our holders of common stock.

 

So long as the Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, the holders thereof, by the vote or written consent of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, shall have the right to designate two members to our board of directors.

 

The securities purchase agreement entered into in connection with the sale of the Series A Preferred Stock also includes the following rights:

 

  Subject to applicable securities laws and regulations, any purchaser that continues to hold Series A Preferred Stock convertible into 5% or more of the then issued and outstanding shares of our common stock shall also have a preemptive right to purchase its pro rata share of all equity securities that we may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue after the consummation of the Mergers (subject to certain exceptions).
     
  If we seek to consummate any debt financings (other than (i) non-distressed floor plan financings on customary terms and conditions and with an interest rate of not greater than 5% per annum, (ii) the replacement or refinancing of existing indebtedness where the replaced or refinanced indebtedness does not exceed the existing amount of indebtedness and are not on terms materially worse than the indebtedness being replaced or refinanced, and (iii) advances or other extensions of credit under a revolving credit facility or floor plan credit facility) after the consummation of the Mergers, the purchasers of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a right of first refusal to provide the funding necessary for such debt financings provided that such purchasers still hold an aggregate of at least $10 million of the Series A Preferred Stock. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will have a period of 15 business days to notify us of its intention to exercise its right.

 

 66 
 

 

  If we receive in excess of $1 million as a result of indemnification claims made in respect of certain breaches of representations and warranties of Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. under the merger agreement, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have a right to require us to utilize such amounts in excess of the $1 million to redeem their shares of Series A Preferred Stock for the liquidation preference of such shares.

 

Our Shares of Series A preferred Stock are currently not listed or traded in any exchange or market place.

 

Our board has the power, without stockholder approval, to issue the remaining preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. In addition, the preferred stock could be utilized as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company.

 

Warrants

 

As of March 29, 2018, 4,658,937 warrants are outstanding. The resale of 3,843,436 warrants is being registered hereunder, of those 1,339,499 are pre-funded warrants. The description that follows is of the warrants and pre-funded warrants covered by this registration statement, The warrants became exercisable on March 15, 2018 (the date of the consummation of our initial business combination and the pre-funded warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 and the other warrants have an exercise price of $11.50). Warrants may be exercised for cash or, at the option of the holder, on a “cashless basis” pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act by surrendering the warrants for that number of shares of common stock as determined under the warrants. The warrants covered by this registration statement expire March 15, 2023 (five years following the date of consummation of our initial business combination) at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, except for the pre-funded warrants that do not have an expiration date.

 

We may call the warrants for redemption (excluding the pre-funded warrants) in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant,

 

  at any time while the warrants are exercisable;
     
  upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder;
     
  if, and only if, the reported last sale price of our common stock equals or exceeds $24.00 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30-day trading period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to warrant holders; and
     
  if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of common stock underlying such warrants commencing five business days prior to the 30-day trading period and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

 

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption. On and after the redemption date, a record holder of a warrant will have no further rights except to receive the redemption price for such holder’s warrant upon surrender of such warrant.

 

 67 
 

 

The exercise price and number of shares of our common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of our common stock at a price below their respective exercise prices.

 

The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price, by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of shares of our common stock or any voting rights unless and until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of our common stock. After the issuance of shares of our common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

 

Warrant holders may elect to be subject to a restriction on the exercise of their warrants such that an electing warrant holder would not be able to exercise their warrants to the extent that, after giving effect to such exercise, such holder would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the shares of our common stock outstanding.

 

No fractional shares of or common stock will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share of the Company, the Company will, upon exercise, follow the requirements of the DGCL.

 

The warrants are not currently listed or traded on any exchange or marketplace.

 

Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent

 

The transfer agent for our shares of common stock and warrant agent for our warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of

Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. and Subsidiaries

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

LAZY DAYS’ R.V. CENTER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

December 31, 2017 and 2016 

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Through its subsidiaries, Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. sells and services new and pre-owned recreational vehicles, sells related parts and accessories, and rents recreational vehicles from five locations, one in the state of Florida, one in the state of Arizona and three in the state of Colorado. It also offers to its customers such ancillary services as extended service contracts, overnight campground and restaurant facilities. The Company also arranges financing for vehicle sales through third-party financing sources.

 

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Lazy Days’ R.V. Center, Inc. (“Lazy Days”), a Delaware Corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary LDRV Holdings Corp. LDRV Holdings Corp is the sole owner of Lazydays Arizona, LLC, Lazydays Land Holdings, LLC, Lazydays Tampa Land Holdings, LLC, Lazydays RV America, LLC, Lazydays RV Discount, LLC, and Lazydays Mile Hi RV, LLC (collectively, the “Company”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the assumptions used in the valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, provision for charge-backs, inventory write-downs and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net income.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value amount approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Cash consists of business checking accounts with its bank, the first $250 of which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. There are no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2017 or 2016.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when the following four criteria are met: (1) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (2) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (3) fees are fixed or determinable, and (4) the collection of related accounts receivable is probable.

 

Revenue from the sale of vehicles is recognized on delivery, transfer of title and completion of financing arrangements. Revenue from parts sales and service is recognized on delivery of the service or product.

 

Revenue from rental of vehicles is recognized pro rata over the period of the rental agreement. The rental agreements are generally short-term in nature. Revenue from rentals is included in parts, service, and other revenue on the accompanying statements of income.

The Company receives commissions from the sale of insurance and vehicle service contracts to customers. In addition, the Company arranges financing for customers through various financial institutions and receives commissions. The Company may be charged back (“charge-backs”) for financing fees, insurance or vehicle service contract commissions in the event of early termination of the contracts by the customers. The revenues from financing fees and commissions are recorded at the time of the sale of the vehicles and an allowance for future charge-backs is established based on historical operating results and the termination provision of the applicable contracts. The Company recognized finance and insurance revenues of $29,848 and $29,044, net of chargebacks of $2,661 and $1,911, during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company has an accrual for charge-backs which totaled $2,373 and $1,790 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is included in other current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Deposits on vehicles received in advance are accounted for as a liability and recognized into revenue upon completion of each respective transaction.

 

Occupancy Costs

 

As a retail merchandising organization, the Company has elected to classify occupancy costs as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income.

 

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs

 

The Company reports shipping and handling costs billed to customers as a component of revenues, and related costs are reported as a component of costs applicable to revenues. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, $2,760 and $3,506 of shipping and handling fees, respectively, were included in revenue.

 

Receivables

 

The Company sells to customers and arranges third-party financing, as is customary in its industry. Interest is not normally charged on receivables. Management establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on its historic loss experience and current economic conditions. Losses are charged to the allowance when management deems further collection efforts will not produce additional recoveries.

 

Inventories

 

Vehicle and parts inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method. Cost includes purchase costs, reconditioning costs, dealer-installed accessories, and freight. For vehicles accepted in trades, the cost is the fair value of such used vehicles at the time of the trade-in. Retail parts, accessories, and other inventories primarily consist of retail travel and leisure specialty merchandise. The current replacement costs of LIFO inventories exceeded their recorded values by $11,930 and $8,158 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense in the period incurred. Betterments and additions are capitalized. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Useful lives range from 15 to 20 years for buildings and improvements and from 2 to 7 years for vehicles and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the term of the lease.

 

Goodwill and Intangibles

 

The Company’s goodwill, trademarks and tradenames are deemed to have indefinite lives, and accordingly are not amortized, but are evaluated at least annually for impairment and more often whenever changes in facts and circumstances may indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgment is required to estimate the fair value of reporting units which includes estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates, consideration of the Company’s aggregate fair value, and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment.

When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may assess qualitative factors for some or all of our reporting units to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. Alternatively, the Company may bypass this qualitative assessment for some or all of our reporting units and perform a detailed quantitative test of impairment (step 1). If the Company performs the detailed quantitative impairment test and the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company would perform an analysis (step 2) to measure such impairment. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to identify and evaluate events and circumstances to conclude whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s reporting units is less than their carrying amounts. Based on the Company’s qualitative assessments, the Company concluded that a positive assertion can be made that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units exceeded their carrying values and no impairments were identified at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

Other intangible assets include manufacturer relationships and customer database. Manufacturer relationships are being amortized using the straight-line method over 13 to 18 years. The customer database is fully amortized, and had a net carrying value of $0 at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

Vendor Allowances

 

As a component of the Company’s consolidated procurement program, the Company frequently enters into contracts with vendors that provide for payments of rebates. These vendor payments are reflected in the carrying value of the inventory when earned or as progress is made toward earning the rebates and as a component of cost of sales as the inventory is sold. Certain of these vendor contracts provide for rebates that are contingent upon the Company meeting specified performance measures such as a cumulative level of purchases over a specified period of time. Such contingent rebates are given accounting recognition at the point at which achievement of the specified performance measures is deemed to be probable and reasonably estimable.

 

Financing Costs

 

Debt financing costs are recorded as debt discount and are amortized over the term of the related debt. Amortization of debt discount included in interest expense was $371 and $240 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to, (1) a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition of an asset. The Company measures the carrying amount of the asset against the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with it. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, continued

 

The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may differ from assumed and estimated amounts. Management believes no material impairment of long-lived assets existed at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash, receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 because of the relatively short maturities of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s bank debt approximates fair value as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 because the debt bears interest at a rate that approximates the current market rate at which the Company could borrow funds with similar maturities.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising and promotion costs are charged to operations in the year incurred and totaled approximately $11,027 and $10,611 for the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

A SC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

 

Tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return are recorded in the Company’s financial statements. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is only recognized if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. Uncertain tax positions have had no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date.

 

The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest and penalties as income tax (benefit) expense in the consolidated statements of income.

 

Vendor Concentrations

 

The Company purchases its new recreational vehicles and replacement parts from various manufacturers. During the year ended December 31, 2017, four major vendors accounted for 28.9%, 27.0%, 21.3% and 15.0% of purchases. During the year ended December 31, 2016, five major vendors accounted for 31.9%, 25.3%, 15.5%, 15.3% and 10.4% of total purchases.

 

The Company is subject to dealer agreements with each manufacturer. The manufacturer is entitled to terminate the dealer agreement if the Company is in material breach of the agreement terms.

 

Geographic Concentrations

 

During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, approximately 77% and 79%, respectively, of revenues were to customers of the Company’s Florida location. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, approximately 15% and 14%, respectively, of revenues were to customers of the Company’s Colorado location. These geographic concentrations increase the Company’s exposure to adverse developments related to competition, as well as economic, demographic and other changes in these regions.

Leases

 

For operating leases, rent is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term, including cancellable option periods where we are reasonably assured to exercise the options. Differences between amounts paid and amounts expensed are recorded as deferred rent. Capital leases are recorded as an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments during the lease term. Sale-leasebacks are transactions through which assets are sold at fair value and subsequently leased back from the seller. Failed sale-leaseback transactions result in retention of the “sold” assets within property and equipment, with a financing lease obligation equal to the amount of proceeds received recorded as a financing liability, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Compensated Absences

 

The Company recognizes liabilities for compensated absences dependent on whether the obligation is attributable to employee services already rendered, related to rights that vest or accumulate, and for which payment is probable and estimable. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s liability for paid time off earned by permanent employees, but not taken, was approximately $1,244 and $1,180, respectively.

 

Subsequent Events

 

Management of the Company has analyzed the activities and transactions subsequent to December 31, 2017 through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued to determine the need for any adjustments to or disclosures within the financial statements. Except as disclosed in Note 15, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would require disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 amends the existing guidance to require that inventory should be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out or the retail inventory method. As the Company is a non-public entity, ASU 2015-11 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes” (“ASU 2015-17”). The FASB issued ASU 2015-17 as part of its ongoing Simplification Initiative, with the objective of reducing complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require entities that present a classified balance sheet to classify all deferred tax liabilities and assets as a noncurrent amount. This guidance does not change the offsetting requirements for deferred tax liabilities and assets, which results in the presentation of one amount on the balance sheet. Additionally, the amendments in ASU 2015-17 align the deferred income tax presentation with the requirements in International Accounting Standards (IAS) 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. As the Company is a non-public entity, the amendments in ASU 2015-17 were effective for the Company’s financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 will also require new qualitative and quantitative disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2016-02 and its impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Principal versus Agent Considerations”, in April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” and in May 9, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2016-12”). This update provides clarifying guidance regarding the application of ASU No. 2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers which is not yet effective. These new standards provide for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition that replaces the existing revenue recognition guidance. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The amendment addresses several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: allowing the accounting policy election to record forfeitures as they occur for employee share-based payments; income tax consequences; classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and classification on the statement of cash flows. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). The amendment addresses several specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to materially impact its consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (“ASU 2016-18”). The amendments require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to materially impact its consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). This ASU clarifies the definition of a business to exclude gross assets acquired (or disposed of) that have substantially all of their fair value concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. The ASU also updates the definition of the term “output” to be consistent with ASC Topic No. 606. As the Company is a non-public entity, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted and the Company adopted ASU 2017-01 as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): (“ASU 2017-09”). ASU 2017-09 provides clarity on the accounting for modifications of stock-based awards. ASU 2017-09 requires adoption on a prospective basis in the annual and interim periods for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 for share-based payment awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842). This Accounting Standards Update adds Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Announcement at the July 20, 2017 Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meeting. The July announcement addresses Transition Related to Accounting Standards Updates No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This Update also supersedes SEC paragraphs pursuant to the rescission of SEC Staff Announcement, “Accounting for Management Fees Based on a Formula,” effective upon the initial adoption of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and SEC Staff Announcement, “Lessor Consideration of Third-Party Value Guarantees,” effective upon the initial adoption of Topic 842, Leases. The amendments in this Update also rescind three SEC Observer Comments effective upon the initial adoption of Topic 842. One SEC Staff Observer comment is being moved to Topic 842. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard is required to be implemented effective January 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

In November 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-14, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which amends certain aspects of the new revenue recognition standard. As the Company is a non-public entity, this standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.

As a result of the Mergers described in Note 3 below, on March 15, 2018, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Lazydays Holdings Inc., a public entity. Lazydays Holdings, Inc. qualifies as an emerging growth company pursuant to the provision of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain new accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Lazydays Holdings, Inc. has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided by the JOBS Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards . As a result, the change in the Company from a non-public to a public entity will not result in any change to the ASU effective dates outlined above.

 

NOTE 3 – MERGER AGREEMENT

 

On October 27, 2017, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Andina Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Andina”), Andina II Holdco Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Andina (“Holdco”) and Andina II Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub”).

 

The Merger Agreement provides for a business combination transaction by means of (i) the merger of Andina with and into Holdco, with Holdco surviving and becoming a new public company (the “Redomestication Merger”) and (ii) the merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub with the Company surviving and becoming a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (the “Transaction Merger” and together with the Redomestication Merger, the “Mergers”). As a result of the Mergers, the Company’s stockholders and the shareholders of Andina will become stockholders of Holdco.

 

Under the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Redomestication Merger, (i) each ordinary share of Andina will be exchanged for one share of common stock of Holdco (“ Holdco Shares”), except that holders of ordinary shares of Andina sold in its initial public offering (“public shares”) shall be entitled to elect instead to receive a pro rata portion of Andina’s trust account, as provided in Andina’s charter documents, (ii) each Andina right will entitle the holder to receive one-seventh of a Holdco Share and (iii) each Andina warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one-half of one Holdco Share at a price of $11.50 per whole share. Upon consummation of the Transaction Merger, the Company’s stockholders (the “Stockholders”) will receive their pro rata portion of: (i) 2,857,143 Holdco Shares; and (ii) $85,000 in cash, subject to adjustments based on the Company’s working capital and debt as of closing and also subject to any such Holdco Shares and cash that are issued and paid to the Company’s option holders and participants under the Transaction Incentive Plan.

NOTE 8 – FAILED SALE-LEASEBACK ARRANGEMENT

 

On December 23, 2015, the Company sold certain land, building and improvements for $56,000 and is leasing back the property from the purchaser over a non-cancellable period of 20 years. The lease contains renewal options at lease termination, with three options to renew for 10 additional years each and contains a right of first offer in the event the property owner intends to sell any portion or all of the property to a third party. These rights and obligations constitute continuing involvement, which results in failed sale-leaseback (financing) accounting. The financing liability has an implied interest rate of 7.4%. The Company incurred financing costs of $1,025 in connection with this transaction.

 

The financing liability, net of debt discount, is summarized as follows:

 

   As of December 31, 
   2017   2016 
Financing liability  $55,158   $55,599 
Debt discount   (883)   (951)
Financing liability, net of debt discount   54,275    54,648 
Less: current portion   595    465 
Financing liability, non-current portion  $53,680   $54,183 

 

The future minimum payments required by the arrangement are as follows:

 

           Total 
Years ending December 31,  Principal   Interest   Payment 
2018  $595   $4,065   $4,660 
2019   737    4,017    4,754 
2020   892    3,956    4,848 
2021   1,061    3,885    4,946 
2022   1,245    3,800    5,045 
Thereafter   42,315    33,235    75,550 
   $46,845   $52,958   $99,803 

 

 

At the conclusion of the 20-year lease period, the financing liability residual will be $8,313, which will correspond to the carrying value of the land. Payments totaling $4,570 were made to the lessor during 2017 of which $4,104 represented payment of interest and $465 reduced the Company’s financing obligation. Payments totaling $4,106 were made to the lessor and interest incurred on the financing liability was $4,131 during 2016, resulting in $25 of accrued interest, which was included on the balance sheet in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities during 2016. The Company recorded $68 and $69 of interest expense on the failed sale-leaseback financing related to the amortization of the debt discount during 2017 and 2016, respectively.

NOTE 10 – DEBT

 

Floor Plan Notes Payable

 

On February 27, 2017, the Company and Bank of America amended the Floor Plan Notes Payable asset-based borrowing facility to (a) increase the aggregate availability from $120 million to $140 million; (b) modify certain financial covenants; (c) decrease the interest rate applicable to the facility over time until it reaches LIBOR plus 2.25% for the period from November 1, 2017 until the maturity date (November 18, 2018) of the facility; and (d) amend or modify other terms and conditions.

 

The entire facility may be used to finance new vehicle inventory but only up to $40.0 million may be used to finance pre-owned vehicle inventory, of which a maximum of $5.0 million may be used to finance rental units. Borrowings outstanding under this facility totaled $105,207 and $95,999 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, interest was based on LIBOR plus rates ranging between 2.25% and 3.25% (3.63% and 4.03% at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively). Principal is due upon the sale of the respective vehicle. Interest expense on the floor plan notes payable was approximately $3,739 and $2,270 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the Company incurred financing costs of $139 and $260, respectively, in connection with amendments of the floor plan financing agreement, which have been recorded as debt discount.

   As of December 31, 
   2017   2016 
Floor plan notes payable, gross  $105,207   $95,999

Revolving Line of Credit

 

On November 18, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America for an aggregate commitment amount of $20,000, which includes two facilities (the “BOA Credit Agreement”). One of the two facilities under the BOA Credit Agreement is a $7,000 revolving line of credit (“Revolver”) which matures on November 18, 2020. The Revolver bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum and has no minimum payment requirements. The principal balance on the Revolver was $0 and $3,000 and the availability on the Revolver was $7,000 and $4,000 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Interest expense on the BOA Revolver was $78 and $159 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Long-Term Debt

 

The second of two facilities under the BOA Credit Agreement is a $13,000 term note payable (“Term Loan”) which is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and equipment and matures on November 18, 2020 with a balloon payment due of $3,867. The Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.50% (4.84% and 4.73% at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively) per annum and requires monthly payments equal to $155 of principal, plus interest. The principal balance on the Term Loan was $9,130 and $10,988 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Interest expense on the BOA Term Loan was $491 and $474 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Other Debt Terms

 

The Revolver, the Term Loan and the Floor Plan Notes Payable, collectively known as (the “BOA Debt”) are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Security Agreement between the Company and the lender. The BOA Debt is subject to certain financial and restrictive covenants including current ratio as defined. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

As of December 31, 2017, the payment of dividends by the Company (other than from proceeds of revolving loans) was permitted pursuant to the terms of the BOA Debt, so long as at the time of the payment of any such dividend, no event of default existed under the BOA Debt or would result from the payment of such dividend, and so long as any such dividend was permitted under the BOA Debt (including any event of default that would result from failure to comply with the current ratio test under the BOA Debt). As of December 31, 2017, the maximum amount of cash dividends that the Company could make, from legally available funds, to its stockholders was limited to $6,620 (pursuant to a calculation as defined in the BOA Credit Agreement and the floor plan facility).

No significant increases or decreases in the amounts of unrecognized tax benefits are expected in the next 12 months.

 

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax and income tax in the states of Florida, Arizona and Colorado. The Company is no longer subject to the examination by Federal and state taxing authorities for years prior to 2014.

New Tax Legislation

 

On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act tax reform legislation. This legislation makes significant changes to U.S. tax laws including a reduction in the corporate tax rates, changes to net operating loss carryforwards and carrybacks, and a repeal of the corporate alternative minimum tax. The legislation reduced the U.S. corporate tax rate from the current top rate of 35% to 21%. As a result of the enacted law, the Company was required to revalue deferred tax assets and liabilities at the enacted rate. This revaluation resulted in a benefit of $12 to income tax expense.

 

NOTE 12 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

 

The Company has a profit sharing plan with 401(k) provisions (the “Plan”). The Plan covers substantially all employees.

The Company is a party to numerous legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company has certain insurance coverage and rights of indemnification. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, the results of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows.

To the extent the proceeds received in a qualifying sale transaction exceed certain specified thresholds (the “Excess Amount”), participants in the Transaction Incentive Plan who meet the specified service requirements are entitled to a cash and stock award on the closing date of the qualifying sale transaction equal to their awarded percentage of the Excess Amount. The cash and stock awards will be paid from the consideration of the qualifying sale transaction. The Contemplated Mergers (see Note 3 – Merger Agreement) represented a qualifying sale transaction that, if consummated with no purchase price adjustments, would result in the payment to plan participants an aggregate of approximately $1,510 of cash (including amounts held in escrow) and approximately 51,893 shares of Holdco’s common stock with a value of $454 based on an assumed closing price of $8.75 per Holdco share. An additional $250 will be paid in cash and stock upon the release of amounts held in escrow under the Merger Agreement.

NOTE 14 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Authorized Capital

 

As of December 31, 2017, the Company was authorized to issue 4,500,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, and 150,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value. The holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote per share. The preferred stock is designated as follows: 10,000 shares to Senior Preferred Stock; and 140,000 shares undesignated. The holders of Senior Preferred Stock are entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which the holder’s shares are convertible.

 

Equity Incentive Plans

 

The Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (“2010 Plan”) provided for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, rights to purchase common stock, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its shareholders. The common stock that may have been issued pursuant to awards was not to exceed 100,000 shares in the aggregate, provided that, no more than 14,000 shares shall be incentive stock options. The 2010 Plan became effective on October 19, 2010. The 2010 Plan required the exercise price of stock options to be greater than or equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

 

On January 30, 2017, the Company cancelled its 2010 Plan. See Stock Options, below, for details on the stock options previously granted under the 2010 Plan that were cancelled on January 30, 2017.

 

On January 30, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (“2017 Plan”), which provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, rights to purchase common stock, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units to employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates. The common stock that may be issued pursuant to awards shall not exceed 333,333 shares in the aggregate, provided that, no more than ten percent (10%) of such shares shall be incentive stock options. The 2017 Plan shall terminate on January 30, 2027. The 2017 Plan requires the exercise price of stock options to be greater than or equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. As of the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, there were 50,000 shares available for future issuance under the 2017 Plan.

 

Senior Preferred Stock

 

At any time, the Company, at its option and with prior notice provided, may redeem outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock for an amount equal to 102% of the then liquidation value as of the applicable redemption date, which is defined as an amount equal to $1,000 per share of Senior Preferred Stock plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends. The redemption price shall be paid in cash. The holders of Senior Preferred Stock have the right, at their option at any time, to convert such shares into shares of common stock at the Conversion Price, which is computed by dividing an amount in cash equal to $1,000 per share of Senior Preferred Stock by the then Conversion Price (initially $4.285715 per share of common stock). The Conversion Price may be reduced on a weighted average basis in the event of any sales of common stock for a price less than the Conversion Price. Each share of Senior Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into common stock upon the sale of common stock by the Company in an underwritten public offering that results in gross cash proceeds to the Company of at least $50,000. The holders of Senior Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the shares of common stock on an as-converted basis. So long as any shares of Senior Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company shall not, without the written consent of the requisite holders of Senior Preferred Stock, perform certain actions such as issuing shares of the Company, amend the Certificate of Designation or approve the merger of the Company, as specified in the Certificate of Designation. The holders of Senior Preferred Stock are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, cumulative dividends at the annual rate of 8% of the liquidation value, which is defined as an amount equal to $1,000 per share of Senior Preferred Stock plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends. Such dividends are compounded quarterly and, to the extent declared, are payable in cash by the Company on a quarterly basis. If undeclared, dividends continue to accumulate. At liquidation, after payment of debts and liabilities, the holders of Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to $1,000 per share of Senior Preferred Stock plus all unpaid dividends, whether or not declared, before any distribution is made to holders of shares of any junior securities.

December 31, 2017 and 2016

 

The Senior Preferred Stock was redeemable at the Company’s option and an analysis of its features determined that it was more akin to equity and, therefore, it was classified within stockholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets. While the embedded conversion option (“ECO”) was subject to an anti-dilution price adjustment, since the ECO was clearly and closely related to the equity host, it was not required to be bifurcated and was not accounted for as a derivative liability under ASC 815.

 

In December 2009, the Company issued 10,000 shares of Senior Preferred Stock to certain investors for consideration of $1,000 per share or $10,000 in the aggregate. On March 2, 2017, the Company issued a Notice of Redemption to the holders of all of the then designated, issued and outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock, after which the holders surrendered all 10,000 shares of Senior Preferred Stock for conversion into 2,333,331 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there were 0 and 10,000 shares of Senior Preferred Stock outstanding, respectively.

 

Dividends

 

The Company declared dividends totaling $54,498 in 2015. The first distribution, in an aggregate amount of $10,000, was made on December 22, 2015 in the form of a cash dividend to the stockholders of record on December 17, 2015. This dividend was allocated first to payment of accumulated and current cumulative dividends in the aggregate amount of $6,085 on Senior Preferred Stock for all periods ending on and before December 21, 2015, and then to payment of a cash dividend in the aggregate amount of $3,915 to the holders of common stock and the holders of Senior Preferred Stock on an as-if converted basis.

 

The second distribution, in an aggregate amount of $44,498, was made on January 5, 2016 in the form of cash dividends to the stockholders of record on December 24, 2015. This dividend was allocated first to payment of current cumulative dividends in the aggregate amount of $29 on Senior Preferred Stock for the period of December 22, 2015 through January 4, 2016, and then to payment of a cash dividend in the aggregate amount of $44,469 to the holders of common stock and the holders of Senior Preferred Stock on an as-if converted basis.

 

On April 10, 2017, the Company declared dividends totaling $15,000, which were distributed on April 19, 2017 in the form of a cash dividend to the common stockholders of record on April 10, 2017.

 

Stock Options

 

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 of $497 and $13, respectively which is included within operating expenses on the consolidated statements of income. As of December 31, 2017, there was $1,801 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense that will be recognized over the weighted average remaining vesting period of 3.1 years.

 

On January 30, 2017, holders of options to purchase an aggregate of 75,561 shares of common stock under the 2010 Plan with exercise prices of both $68.80 and $137.60 per share agreed to cancel their option awards in exchange for new awards under the Company’s Transaction Incentive Plan (see Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies – Transaction Incentive Plan for details of the Transaction Incentive Plan awards). As a result of the option cancellation, the Company derecognized aggregate compensation expense of $14 related to the cancelled options that were unvested at the time of the cancellation.

 

On January 30, 2017, the Company granted ten-year, non-statutory stock options to purchase an aggregate of 216,667 shares of common stock with an aggregate grant date fair value of $1,562 under the 2017 Plan to two Company executives with an exercise price of $26.00 per share. The options vest in equal installments of 25% on each of the next four anniversary dates from the date of grant. Upon a change of control, vesting of all then unvested shares is accelerated. During April 2017, concurrent with the declaration of the stockholder dividend, the exercise prices of the options were reduced to $21.77 per share, resulting in a $269 increase in the fair value of the options. The $1,831 fair value of the options, as modified, is being recognized ratably over the vesting term of the options.

December 31, 2017 and 2016

 

On June 12, 2017, the Company granted a ten-year, non-statutory stock option to purchase an aggregate of 66,666 shares of common stock under the 2017 Plan to a new Company executive with an exercise price of $26.00 per share. The options vest in equal installments of 25% on each of the next four anniversary dates from the date of grant. Upon a change of control, vesting of all then unvested shares is accelerated. The estimated aggregate grant date fair value of $466 is being recognized ratably over the vesting term of the options.

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The fair value of the Company’s common stock options is estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and the expected life. The Company calculates the expected volatility using the historical volatility of comparable companies over the most recent period equal to the expected term and evaluates the extent to which available information indicates that future volatility may differ from historical volatility. The expected dividend rate is zero as the Company does not expect to pay or declare any cash dividends on common stock. The risk-free rates for the expected terms of the stock options are based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant. The Company has not experienced significant exercise activity on stock options. Due to the lack of historical information, the Company determined the expected term of its stock option awards issued using the simplified method.

 

The grant date value of options granted during year ended December 31, 2017 was determined using the Black Scholes method with the following assumptions used:

 

   For the Year Ended 
   December 31, 2017 
Risk free interest rate   1.90% - 2.11%
Expected term (years)   6.17 - 6.25 
Expected volatility   36%
Expected dividends   0.00%

NOTE 15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

M&T Financing Agreement

 

On March 15, 2018, the Company replaced the BOA Debt (See Note 10) with a $200,000 Senior Secured Credit Facility with M&T Bank (the “M&T Facility”). The M&T Facility includes a $175,000 Floor Plan Facility (the “M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit”), a $20,000 Term Loan (the “M&T Term Loan”), and a $5,000 Revolving Credit Facility (the “M&T Revolver”). The M&T Facility will mature on March 15, 2021. The M&T facility requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants and is secured by substantially all assets of the Company.

 

The M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit may be used to finance new vehicle inventory, but only $45,000 may be used to finance pre-owned vehicle inventory and only $4,500 may be used to finance rental units. Principal becomes due upon the sale of the respective vehicle. The M&T Floor Plan Line of Credit shall accrue interest at either (a) the fluctuating 30-day LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin which ranges from 2.00% to 2.30% based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio (as defined in the M&T Facility) or (b) the Base Rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.30% based upon the Company’s total leverage ratio (as defined in the M&T facility). The Base Rate is defined in the agreement as the highest of M&T’s prime rate, the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%. In addition, the Company will be charged for unused commitments at a rate of 0.15%.

 

The M&T Term Loan will be repaid in equal monthly principal installments of $242 plus accrued interest through the maturity date. At the maturity date, the Company will pay a principal balloon payment of $11,300 plus any accrued interest. The M&T Term Loan shall bear interest at (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 3.0% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.25%-2.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement).

 

The M&T Revolver allows the Company to draw up to $5,000. The M&T Revolver shall bear interest at (a) 30-day LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.25% to 3.0% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) or (b) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.25%-2.00% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement). The M&T Revolver is also subject to the unused commitment fees at rates varying from 0.25% to 0.50% based on the total leverage ratio (as defined).

 

2018 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan

 

On March 15, 2018, Holdco adopted the 2018 Long-Term Incentive Equity Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The 2018 Plan reserves up to 13% of the Holdco Shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis. If the fair market value per share of Holdco Share immediately following the closing of the Merger is greater than $8.75 per Holdco Share the number of Holdco Shares authorized for awards under the 2018 Plan shall be increased by a formula (as defined in the 2018 Plan) not to exceed 18% of Holdco Shares then outstanding on a fully diluted basis.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Introduction

 

Lazydays Holdings, Inc. is providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the Mergers.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of November 30, 2017 combines the audited historical consolidated balance sheet of Lazydays as of December 31, 2017 with the audited historical consolidated balance sheet of Andina as of November 30, 2017, giving effect to the Mergers as if they had been consummated as of that date.

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined income statement for the year ended November 30, 2017 combines the audited historical consolidated statement of income of Lazydays for the year ended December 31, 2017 with the audited historical consolidated statement of operations of Andina for the year ended November 30, 2017, giving effect to the Mergers as if they had occurred on December 1, 2016.

 

The historical financial information of Lazydays was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Lazydays for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, included as an Exhibit in this Form 8-K. The historical financial information of Andina was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Andina for the years ended November 30, 2017 and 2016, included in the proxy statement/prospectus/information statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2018. This information should be read together with Lazydays’ and Andina’s audited and unaudited financial statements and related notes, “Lazydays’ Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ,” and other financial information included elsewhere in this Form 8-K.

 

Description of the Merger

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate consideration paid in the Mergers consisted of (i) 2,857,143 shares of Holdco’s common stock and (ii) $86,741,000 in cash, subject to adjustments based on Lazydays’ working capital and debt as of the closing date (“Merger Consideration Cash”).

 

Andina also entered into a series of securities purchase agreements with institutional investors for a $94.8 million PIPE Investment which closed simultaneously with the consummation of the Mergers. As a result of the PIPE Investment, on the closing, Andina issued an aggregate of 600,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (with a stated value of $60.0 million), 3,993,479 shares of common stock (the “Holdco Shares”) and five-year warrants to purchase an additional 2,503,934 Holdco Shares exercisable at $11.50 per share.

 

Accounting for the Merger

 

The Mergers will be accounted for in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, the excess of the purchase price of the assets acquired over the book value as of the date of acquisition will be allocated first to the identifiable intangible assets, then any remaining excess to goodwill. All other assets and liabilities to be acquired are primarily estimated to be stated at their fair values, which approximates their recorded cost. In addition, a deferred tax liability will be provided on the difference between the value allocated and their tax basis.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to Andina’s extension of the date by which it had to consummate a business combination. As a result of the extension amendments, an aggregate of 1,868,121 ordinary shares were redeemed for $19,111,274, which was released from the trust account. In addition, the pro forma condensed combined financial statements give effect to the monthly contribution of $0.03 per share, or $469,628 in the aggregate, to the trust account for each public share that was not redeemed in connection with the extension amendments.

 

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

 

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give pro forma effect to events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Mergers, are factually supportable and are expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the combined company. The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been identified and presented to provide relevant information necessary for an accurate understanding of the combined company upon consummation of the Mergers.

 

  PF-2 
 

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the combined company will experience. Lazydays and Andina have not had any historical relationship prior to the Mergers. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

 

Included in the shares outstanding and weighted average shares outstanding as presented in the pro forma condensed combined financial statements are 2,857,143 Holdco Shares issued to Lazydays stockholders.

 

Upon consummation of the Mergers, 4,310,000 rights converted into 615,713 Holdco Shares.

 

As a result of the Mergers, after 1,096,880 shares were redeemed for cash at a redemption price of $10.30 per share (which is the full pro rata share of the trust account as of March 15, 2018), Former shareholders of Lazydays own approximately 29.1% of Holdco Shares outstanding immediately after the Mergers, Andina public shareholders own approximately 16.4% of Holdco Shares, Andina’s initial founders own approximately 13.3% of Holdco Shares, EarlyBirdCapital owns approximately 0.5% of Holdco shares and the PIPE investors own approximately 40.7% of Holdco Shares, based on the number of Andina shares outstanding as of November 30, 2017.

Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

 

(A) Derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of Lazydays as of December 31, 2017.
   
(B) Derived from the consolidated audited balance sheet of Andina as of November 30, 2017.

 

(1) To reflect the redemption of 708,052 ordinary shares at approximately $10.30 per share in connection with Andina’s shareholder meetings held on January 31, 2018, pursuant to which the shareholders approved the date by which the company has to consummate a Business Combination (“Extension Vote”).
   
(2) To reflect the funding of $0.03 per share for each public share of Andina’s ordinary shares that were not redeemed in connection with the Extension Vote.
   
(3) To reflect the release of cash from investments held in the trust account.
   
(4) To reflect the payment of legal, financial advisory and other professional fees related to the Mergers.
   
(5) To record repayment of notes payable from related parties.
   
(6) To reflect (a) the cancellation of 1,096,880 ordinary shares for shareholders who elected cash conversion for cash payment of $11,298 and (b) reclassification of 472,571 ordinary shares subject to redemption to permanent equity for those shareholders who did not exercise their redemption rights.
   
(7) To reflect the PIPE Investment issuance of 600,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for proceeds of $60,000. The proceeds from the PIPE Investment were allocated based on the relative fair values of the Series A Preferred Stock and the warrants. As a result, the relative fair value of the warrants amounting to $1,848 is recorded as a discount to the Series A Preferred Stock, with a corresponding credit to additional paid in capital.
   
(8) To reflect the PIPE Investment issuance of 3,993,479 shares of common stock for proceeds of $34,797.
   
(9) To reflect the beneficial conversion feature associated with the Series A Preferred Stock as a result of the effective conversion price being less than the commitment date fair value.
   
(10) Reflects the allocation, on a preliminary basis, of cost associated with the Mergers under the acquisition method of accounting as though the acquisition occurred on November 30, 2017. The final allocation of the purchase consideration for the Mergers will be determined after the completion of a thorough analysis to determine the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed but in no event later than one year following the completion of the Mergers. Accordingly, the final acquisition accounting adjustments could differ materially from the unaudited pro forma adjustments presented herein. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as compared to the information shown herein, could also change the portion of the purchase consideration allocable to goodwill and could impact the operating results of the Company following the Mergers due to differences in the allocation of the purchase consideration, depreciation and amortization related to some of these assets and liabilities. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

 

  PF-5 
 

 

Fair value of common stock issued (2,857,143 shares)  $29,400 
Cash paid   86,741 
Total consideration   116,141 
      
Allocated to:     
Cash  $13,292 
Receivables   19,911 
Inventories   126,100 
Prepaid expenses and other   2,062 
Property and equipment   51,047 
Other assets   219 
Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities   (25,181)
Income taxes payable   (1,536)
Contingent liability   (667)
Floor plan notes payable   (104,976)
Long-term debt   (9,077)
Financing liability   (54,275)
Deferred tax liability   (12,046)
Net assets acquired   4,873 
      
Excess of purchase price over net liabilities assumed before allocation to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill  $118,814 

 

An increase or decrease of 1% of Andina’s share price will result in an approximate $286 increase or decrease to the amount recorded as goodwill.

 

The fair value of the common stock was determined using the closing market price of Andina’s ordinary shares on March 15, 2018, which was $10.29 per share. Cash paid represents $85,000 in cash, plus adjustments of $1,741 based on Lazydays’ working capital and debt as of March 15, 2018.

 

The fair value of finished goods and merchandise inventory was determined based on estimated selling prices less the sum of (a) costs of disposal and (b) a reasonable profit allowance for the selling effort of the acquiring entity. The fair value of property and equipment was determined using the indirect cost approach which utilizes fixed asset record information including historical costs, acquisition dates, and asset descriptions and applying asset category specific nationally recognized indices to the historical cost of each asset to derive replacement cost new less depreciation. Management has also made the initial determination that all other assets and liabilities to be acquired are primarily estimated to be stated at their fair values, which approximates their recorded cost. While a final determination of the value of the identifiable intangibles has not been completed, management has made an initial determination that approximately $84,100 of the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired should be allocated to identifiable intangible assets. The unidentified excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill.

Pro Forma Adjustments to the Unaudited Condensed Combined Income Statements

 

(A) Derived from the audited consolidated statements of income of Lazydays for the year ended December 31, 2017.
   
(B) Derived from the audited consolidated statements of operations of Andina for the year ended November 30, 2017.

 

(1) Represents an adjustment to eliminate direct, incremental costs of the Mergers which are reflected in the historical financial statements Lazydays and Andina in the amount of $2,098 and $217 as of November 30, 2017, respectively.
   
(2) To reflect the amortization of the values assigned to the dealer agreements acquired over an estimated useful life of 12 years and customer lists acquired over an estimated useful life of 12 years.
   
(3) Represents an adjustment to eliminate interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account as of the beginning of the period.
   
(4) To record normalized blended statutory income tax benefit rate of 34.0% for pro forma financial presentation purposes.
   
(5) To record deemed dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock for the purpose of determining income (loss) attributable to common stockholders.
   
(6) As the Mergers are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net income (loss) per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Mergers and the PIPE Investment have been outstanding for the entire period presented. The calculation is retroactively adjusted to eliminate the 1,096,880 shares redeemed for the entire period. For purposes of presenting diluted net income (loss) per share in the pro forma statement of operations for all securities, the Company assumed that the dilutive securities are not dilutive for the periods presented and, therefore, weighted average common shares outstanding for basic and diluted purposes are the same.

 

The following presents the calculation of basic and fully diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Fully diluted weighted average common shares outstanding assumes the conversion of all convertible securities, the exercise of all warrants for cash proceeds and the exercise of the unit purchase options and securities underlying such unit purchase options for cash proceeds. If all securities were converted and exercised for cash, this would result in proceeds of approximately $62,449.

Item 14.Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time (“DGCL”), which the Company is subject to, provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. Section 145(b) of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145 of the DGCL, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

 

Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145 of the DGCL (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders. Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former director and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

 

  II-1 
 

 

Section 145 of the DGCL and the Company’s Bylaws empower the Company to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.

 

According to Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Articles”) and the Bylaws, a director of the Company shall not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of the Article 8 by the stockholders of the Company shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Company with respect to events occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

 

The Articles also permits the Company, to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of DGCL, to indemnify all persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto. The Articles and Bylaws provide that expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, or proceeding for which such officer or director may be entitled to indemnification under the Articles shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized hereby.

 

According to the Bylaws, the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to the Bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.

 

Item 15.Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

In July 2015, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,150,000 ordinary shares to its initial shareholders for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.02 per share, in connection with the Company’s organization pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. 150,000 shares were subsequently forfeited as a result of the over-allotment option not being exercised by the underwriters.

 

In addition, the initial shareholders and EarlyBirdCapital purchased an aggregate of 310,000 private units from the Company on a private placement basis simultaneously with the consummation of this offering at a price of $10.00 per unit. These issuances were made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 

No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sales.

 

The securities offered for resale by the Selling Stockholders were acquired in a $94.8 PIPE investment, which was consummated simultaneously with the closing of the merger on March 15, 2018. In the PIPE Investment, we issued an aggregate of 600,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (with a stated value of $60.0 million), 2,653,984 shares of Common Stock and five-year warrants to purchase an additional 3,843,436 shares of common stock.

 

Lazydays Holdings, Inc. issued the foregoing securities pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, as a transaction not requiring registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act. Each investor represented its intentions to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution, and appropriate restrictive legends were affixed to the certificates representing the securities. The recipients also had adequate access to information about Lazydays Holdings, Inc.

  II-4 
 

 

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

 

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

 

provided, however, that subparagraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) For determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

 

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

 

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

 

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

 

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
